Background: This study evaluates the association of diuresis and hydration through a new monitoring indicator called and the risk of acute kidney injury in patients treated with cisplatin based-EXTREME regimen.
Methods: We retrospectively reviewed all the cycles of patients with recurrent and/or metastatic head and neck cancer who received cisplatin based-EXTREME regimen from June 2008 to July 2022. Hydration regimen, urine output and concomitant treatments data were collected on the day of cisplatin infusion and the following day of each course received.
Results: Of the 110 courses received by 46 patients, 38 (34.5%) results in AKI. No patient characteristics showed a significant difference between AKI (70%) and non-AKI (30%) group. In univariate analysis, dose reduction of cisplatin (odds ratio = 0.166 [0.04; 0.75], p = 0.01)) and >8 (odds ratio = 0.316 [0.133; 0.755], p = 0.015) and cardiac treatments (odds ratio = 3.24 [1.26; 8.52], p = 0.02) were significantly associated with AKI risk. In multivariate analysis, cisplatin dose reduction (odds ratio = 0.129 [0.0241; 0.687], p = 0.016) and >8 (odds ratio = 0.184 [0.0648; 0.523], p = 0.0015) were associated with a risk reduction of cisplatin-related AKI. Concomitant administration of cardiac treatments (odds ratio = 3.18 [1.1; 9.22], p = 0.033) showed an increased risk of cisplatin-related AKI.
Conclusion: The combination of diuresis and i.v. hydration through the composite score was shown to be associated with cisplatin-induced AKI risk in patients treated with cisplatin based EXTREME regimen. It could be used as a practical indicator to trigger specific clinical management to limit the risk of cisplatin induced AKI.

Introduction: In inflammatory bowel disease (IBD), the number of eosinophils increases in the lamina propria of the intestinal tract, but their specific patho-mechanistic role remains unclear. Elevated blood eosinophil counts in active IBD suggest their potential as biomarkers for predicting response to biologic therapies. This study evaluates blood eosinophil count trends and their predictive value for clinical response and endoscopic improvement in patients with IBD receiving ustekinumab or adalimumab induction therapy.

Background: Acquired neurological diseases entail significant changes and influence the relationship between a patient and their significant other. In the context of long-term rehabilitation, those affected collaborate with health care professionals who are expected to have a positive impact on the lives of the affected individuals.
Objective: This study aims to examine the changes in the relationship between the patient and their loved ones due to acquired neurological disorders and the influence of health care professionals on this relationship.

Small, obligately anaerobic strains 13CB8C, 13CB11C, 13CB18C and 13GAM1G were isolated from a faecal sample in a patient with Parkinson's disease with a history of duodenal resection. After conducting a comprehensive polyphasic taxonomic analysis including genomic analysis, we propose the establishment of one new genus and four new species. The novel bacteria are sp.

Importance: Environmental service workers (ESWs) have a critical role within the hospital infrastructure and are at the frontline of infection prevention. ESWs are highly trained in managing all forms of regulated waste, which includes biohazardous waste, and are responsible for the overall patient experience, janitorial work, and infection prevention. Without environmental services, patients have a 6 times greater risk of being infected by pathogens from patients who previously occupied their room.

Importance: The open-label randomized phase 2 LACOG0415 trial evaluated 3 treatment strategies for patients with advanced castration-sensitive prostate cancer (CSPC): androgen deprivation therapy (ADT) plus abiraterone acetate and prednisone (AAP), apalutamide (APA) alone, or APA plus AAP.
Objective: To investigate the association of ADT plus AAP, APA alone, or APA plus AAP with health-related quality of life (HRQOL) in patients with advanced CSPC in the LACOG0415 trial.
Design, Setting, And Participants: The LACOG0415 randomized clinical trial comprised 128 patients with advanced CSPC who were randomized (1:1:1) to 1 of 3 treatment arms from October 16, 2017, to April 23, 2019.
