Multidisciplinary Health Institute, Federal University of Bahia, Vitória da Conquista 45029-094, Bahia, Brazil. Electronic address:
Background: Understanding the immunopathogenesis of COVID-19 has yielded valuable insights into predicting adverse outcomes-particularly mortality. However, significant gaps persist in our comprehension of the complex interplay among the proposed pathophysiological mechanisms. Here, we aim to investigate the immunological factors associated with mortality in critically ill, unvaccinated COVID-19 patients admitted to the intensive care unit (ICU).

Objective: Total hip arthroplasty through the Hardinge approach damages the hip abductor muscles. MRI can be used to assess adverse postoperative events. In this prospective randomized controlled trial, we evaluated MRI findings and whether platelet-rich plasma affected postoperative healing of the gluteal muscles (gluteus medius and minimus).

Sci Data
January 2025
Federal University of Bahia, Institute of Computing, Salvador, 40170-110, Brazil.
Multiple Myeloma (MM) is a cytogenetically heterogeneous clonal plasma cell proliferative disease whose diagnosis is supported by analyses on histological slides of bone marrow aspirate. In summary, experts use a labor-intensive methodology to compute the ratio between plasma cells and non-plasma cells. Therefore, the key aspect of the methodology is identifying these cells, which relies on the experts' attention and experience.

January 2025
Clinical Immunology and Transfusion Medicine, Karolinska University Hospital, Stockholm, Sweden.
Background And Objectives: Access to blood components in pre-hospital bleeding resuscitation is challenging. Dried plasma is a logistically superior alternative, and new products are emerging. Therefore, we aimed to evaluate laboratory and practical differences in three differently produced dried plasma products.

J Antimicrob Chemother
January 2025
Pharmacy Department, Ghent University Hospital, Corneel Heymanslaan 10, 9000 Ghent, Belgium.
Background: AUC-based dosing with validated Bayesian software is recommended as a good approach to guide bedside vancomycin dosing.
Objectives: To compare treatment and vancomycin-associated acute kidney injury (AKI) costs between Bayesian AUC-based dosing and conventional therapeutic drug monitoring (TDM) using steady-state plasma concentrations of vancomycin administered as continuous infusion in hospitalized non-critically ill patients with severe Gram-positive infection.
Methods: A cost-benefit analysis presented as a return on investment (ROI) analysis from a hospital perspective was conducted using a decision tree model (TDM versus AUC-based dosing) to simulate treatment cost (personnel, serum sampling and drug cost), vancomycin-associated AKI risk and cost up to 14 days.
