Artificial intelligence (AI) has great potential to improve the field of critical care and enhance patient outcomes. This paper provides an overview of current and future applications of AI in critical illness and its impact on patient care, including its use in perceiving disease, predicting changes in pathological processes, and assisting in clinical decision-making. To achieve this, it is important to ensure that the reasoning behind AI-generated recommendations is comprehensible and transparent and that AI systems are designed to be reliable and robust in the care of critically ill patients. These challenges must be addressed through research and the development of quality control measures to ensure that AI is used in a safe and effective manner. In conclusion, this paper highlights the numerous opportunities and potential applications of AI in critical care and provides guidance for future research and development in this field. By enabling the perception of disease, predicting changes in pathological processes, and assisting in the resolution of clinical decisions, AI has the potential to revolutionize patient care for critically ill patients and improve the efficiency of health systems.

Hidden infections and late diagnoses are currently the main challenges of the HIV pandemic. Emergency departments (EDs) are one of the health care system's key resources addressing these challenges. In 2020, the Spanish Society of Emergency Medicine (SEMES) published recommendations for ordering HIV serology testing for patients with certain health conditions, and in 2021 SEMES launched the "Leave Your Mark" (Deja tu Huella - DTH) program to facilitate implementing the recommendations during emergency care.

Objective: To analyze the usefulness of mean mid-regional pro-adrenomedullin (MR-proADM) level to stratify risk in emergency department patients with solid tumors attended for febrile neutropenia after chemotherapy. To compare risk prediction with MR-proADM to that of conventional biomarkers and scores on the Multinational Association for Supportive Care in Cancer (MASCC) score.
Methods: Prospective observational cohort study enrolling patients with solid tumors who developed febrile neutropenia after chemotherapy.

Breast-conserving surgery accompanied by adjuvant radiotherapy is the standard of care for patients with early-stage breast cancer. However, re-excision is reported in 20-30 % of cases, largely because of close or involved tumor margins in the specimen. Several intraoperative tumor margin assessment techniques have been proposed to overcome this issue, however, none have been widely adopted.
