The 2024 European Society of Intensive Care Medicine clinical practice guideline provide clinicians with evidence-based recommendations on intravenous fluid in critically ill adults across a range of common conditions. These guidelines aim to improve the practices of fluid therapy by adopting a global perspective that considers both clinical efficacy and resource utilization in diverse healthcare settings. The guidelines address three key questions: (1) albumin versus crystalloids, (2) balanced crystalloids versus isotonic saline, and (3) small-volume hypertonic solutions versus isotonic crystalloids.

Laetrile is a semi-synthesis product of amygdalin, whereas amygdalin is a naturally occurring substance in many plants. Both compounds have a nitrile functional group that, when activated by the intestinal enzyme β-glucosidases, releases hydrogen cyanide.

Here we reassess available evidence for the long-held misconception of amoebae possessing exceptionally large genomes. Traditionally, estimates relied on inaccurate methods like DNA weight measurements, leading to inflated sizes. These methods failed to account for contaminating DNA from prey, endosymbionts, and intrinsic genomic features like ribosomal operon amplification.
