Background: Epinephrine is provided during cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR) to increase systemic vascular resistance and generate higher diastolic blood pressure (DBP) to improve coronary perfusion and attain return of spontaneous circulation (ROSC). The DBP response to epinephrine during pediatric CPR and its association with outcomes have not been well described. Thus, the objective of this study was to measure the association between change in DBP after epinephrine administration during CPR and ROSC.
Methods: This was a prospective multicenter study of children receiving ≥ 1 min of CPR with ≥ 1 dose of epinephrine and evaluable invasive arterial BP data in the 18 ICUs of the ICU-RESUS trial (NCT02837497). Blood pressure waveforms underwent compression-by-compression quantitative analysis. The mean DBP before first epinephrine dose was compared to mean DBP two minutes post-epinephrine. Patients with ≥ 5 mmHg increase in DBP were characterized as "responders."
Results: Among 147 patients meeting inclusion criteria, 66 (45%) were characterized as responders and 81 (55%) were non-responders. The mean increase in DBP with epinephrine was 4.4 [- 1.9, 11.5] mmHg (responders: 13.6 [7.5, 29.3] mmHg versus non-responders: - 1.5 [- 5.0, 1.5] mmHg; p < 0.001). After controlling for a priori selected covariates, epinephrine response was associated with ROSC (aRR 1.60 [1.21, 2.12]; p = 0.001). Sensitivity analyses identified similar associations between DBP response thresholds of ≥ 10, 15, and 20 mmHg and ROSC; DBP responses of ≥ 10 and ≥ 15 mmHg were associated with higher aRR of survival to hospital discharge and survival with favorable neurologic outcome (Pediatric Cerebral Performance Category score of 1-3 or no worsening from baseline).
Conclusions: The change in DBP following epinephrine administration during pediatric in-hospital CPR was associated with return of spontaneous circulation.

Background: Acute kidney injury (AKI) is a clinically complex syndrome with a high incidence and mortality rate in the intensive care unit (ICU). Early identification of high-risk patients and timely intervention are crucial.
Objective: A local database was used to construct a model that predicts the incidence of AKI in ICU patients within 48 hours.

Introduction: The main risk factors of necrotising enterocolitis (NEC) are prematurity and low birth weight. The aim of our study was to identify risk factors for NEC in patients with duct-dependent congenital heart disease (CHD).
Study Design: Newborns with duct-dependent CHD and NEC were matched 1:1 to those without NEC.
Beat-by-Beat Estimation of Hemodynamic Parameters in Left Ventricle Based on Phonocardiogram and Photoplethysmography Signals Using a Deep Learning Model: Preliminary Study.

Beat-by-beat monitoring of hemodynamic parameters in the left ventricle contributes to the early diagnosis and treatment of heart failure, valvular heart disease, and other cardiovascular diseases. Current accurate measurement methods for ventricular hemodynamic parameters are inconvenient for monitoring hemodynamic indexes in daily life. The objective of this study is to propose a method for estimating intraventricular hemodynamic parameters in a beat-to-beat style based on non-invasive PCG (phonocardiogram) and PPG (photoplethysmography) signals.

Article Synopsis
- Diastolic blood pressure (DBP) is proposed as a reliable indicator of coronary perfusion pressure (CPP) during CPR, and this study analyzed their correlation with survival outcomes in a pediatric swine model of cardiac arrest.
- The analysis of 102 pediatric swine resuscitations showed that both DBP and CPP were higher in survivors compared to non-survivors, especially after the first epinephrine dosage, with specific predictive thresholds identified for each measurement.
- Findings suggest that monitoring DBP could be crucial during resuscitation efforts, as it closely reflects CPP and is associated with better survival rates, making it a practical target for enhancing the effectiveness of CPR.
Exposure to the plasticizer dibutyl phthalate causes oxidative stress and neurotoxicity in brain tissue.

The phthalate ester, dibutyl phthalate (DBP), is one of the endocrine-disrupting chemicals detected in various aquatic environments. Previous research has found multiple toxic effects of DBP in aquatic organisms; however, the neurotoxic effects of the compound are surprisingly scanty. The purpose of this study was aimed to evaluate the role of oxidative stress in the induction of neurotoxicity in the brain tissue of the fish Pseudetroplus maculatus.
