Venomous snake bite is an acute systemic toxic disease, mainly manifested as: flaccid paralysis, systemic muscle lysis, coagulation disorders, bleeding, renal dysfunction, cardiac toxicity, and local tissue damage to bite segments. This article reports a rare case of spontaneous abdominal bleeding caused by a pit viper bite on the 5th day. After receiving additional anti serum injection and strengthening the correction of coagulation function,the patient's condition improved and eventually the abdominal bleeding was absorbed.

Background: The perioperative management of patients undergoing cardiac surgery is highly complex and involves numerous factors. There is a strong association between cardiac surgery and perioperative complications. The Brazilian Surgical Identification Study (BraSIS 2) aims to assess the incidence of death and early postoperative complications, identify potential risk factors, and examine both the demographic characteristics of patients and the epidemiology of cardiovascular procedures.

Perioperative bleeding is and remains a major complication during and after surgical interventions, resulting in increased morbidity and mortality. The main causes of a non-primary vascular-related bleeding are congenital or multifactorial pre-existing hemostatic disorders that have not yet been diagnosed, the operating procedure itself and acquired hemostatic abnormalities as a secondary phenomenon, e.g.

The plenary session on clinically relevant outcomes in systemic vasculitis emphasized the significance of monitoring creatinine, haematuria and proteinuria for predicting renal outcomes, recovery of kidney function in severe ANCA glomerulonephritis and outcomes post-kidney transplantation in anti-glomerular basement membrane disease. These findings have the potential to enhance clinical practice by refining prognostication and treatment strategies. Future research gaps include exploring the predictive role of proteinuria and understanding the impact of different clinical phenotypes on disease outcomes in Takayasu arteritis.

The use of plasma exchange (PLEX) as adjunct therapy in the initial management of anti-neutrophil cytoplasmic antibody (ANCA)-associated vasculitis remains to be discussed controversially in light of present evidence. In our Viewpoint we highlight scenarios where we think that physicians might still consider the use of PLEX, such as the most severe presentation forms including diffuse alveolar haemorrhage (DAH) with hypoxaemia and acute glomerulonephritis with significantly impaired kidney function. Recent sub-analyses of the PEXIVAS trial have focused on these patient populations and have provided outcomes of these patients.
