Objective: This study aimed to assess the clinical impact of oXiris-continuous hemofiltration adsorption on patients with septic shock and their prognosis.
Design: A retrospective study.
Participants: Septic shock patients.
Interventions: The oXiris group underwent hemofiltration adsorption using oXiris hemofilters and septic shock standard treatment, while the control group received septic shock standard treatment.
Main Variables Of Interest: The changes in inflammatory indicators and short-term mortality rate were evaluated. Propensity score matching (PSM) was conducted based on the 1:2 ratio between the oXiris and control groups to account for any baseline data differences.
Results: Results showed that after 24 h, 48 h, and 72 h of treatment, PCT, IL-6, and hs-CRP levels in the oXiris group were significantly lower than those in the control group (P < 0.05). However, there were no significant differences in norepinephrine equivalents and organ function status (APACHE II score, SOFA score, Lac) between the two groups at the same time points. The 72-h mortality rate (21.88% vs. 34.04%) and the 7-day mortality rate (28.12% vs. 44.68%) were lower in the oXiris group compared to the control group, but not statistically significant. The 28-day mortality rate did not show a significant difference between the two groups (53.19% vs. 56.25%).
Conclusions: oXiris continuous hemofiltration adsorption technology may reduce the levels of inflammatory factors in patients with septic shock; however, it does not appear to enhance organ function or improve the 28-day mortality rate in these patients.

Introduction: To improve surgical quality and safety, health systems must prioritise equitable care for surgical patients. Racialised patients experience worse postoperative outcomes when compared with non-racialised surgical patients in settler colonial nation-states. Identifying preventable adverse outcomes for equity-deserving patient populations is an important starting point to begin to address these gaps in care.

Background: ANDROMEDA-SHOCK 2 is an international, multicenter, randomized controlled trial comparing hemodynamic phenotype-based, capillary refill time-targeted resuscitation in early septic shock to standard care resuscitation to test the hypothesis that the former is associated with lower morbidity and mortality in terms of hierarchal analysis of outcomes.
Objective: To report the statistical plan for the ANDROMEDA--SHOCK 2 randomized clinical trial.
Methods: We briefly describe the trial design, patients, methods of randomization, interventions, outcomes, and sample size.
