Abstract

The use of renal replacement therapy (RRT) modality in the intensive care unit (ICU) depends primarily on provider preference and hospital resource. This study aims to describe the prevalence of RRT use and the trends in RRT modality use in the ICU over the past 7 years. All ICU admissions, including medical, cardiac, and surgical ICUs from 1 January 2007 to 31 December 2013, were included in this study. RRT use was defined as the use of intermittent hemodialysis (IHD) or continuous renal replacement therapy (CRRT) within a given ICU day. The RRT use was reported as the proportion of ICU days on each RRT modality divided by the total ICU days with RRT usage. Over the course of this study (72,005 ICU admissions), 272,271 ICU days were generated. RRTs were used in 4110 ICU admissions (5.7%) and on 21,159 ICU days (7.8%). RRT use was 10,402 (49%) for IHD, and 10,954 (52%) for CRRT. The trend of IHD and CRRT use did not change from year 2007 to 2013. On ICU days with RRT, the choice of RRT modality was associated with the number of vasopressor use (p < 0.001). CRRT was more preferred on the ICU days with the increasing number of vasopressor use. RRTs were used in about 6% of ICU admission. The use of IHD and CRRT was similar and di...Continue Reading

COVID-19

Coronaviruses encompass a large family of viruses that cause the common cold as well as more serious diseases, such as the ongoing outbreak of coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19; formally known as 2019-nCoV). Coronaviruses can spread from animals to humans; symptoms include fever, cough, shortness of breath, and breathing difficulties; in more severe cases, infection can lead to death. This feed covers recent research on COVID-19.

Blastomycosis

Blastomycosis fungal infections spread through inhaling Blastomyces dermatitidis spores. Discover the latest research on blastomycosis fungal infections here.

Nuclear Pore Complex in ALS/FTD

Alterations in nucleocytoplasmic transport, controlled by the nuclear pore complex, may be involved in the pathomechanism underlying multiple neurodegenerative diseases including Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis and Frontotemporal Dementia. Here is the latest research on the nuclear pore complex in ALS and FTD.

Applications of Molecular Barcoding

The concept of molecular barcoding is that each original DNA or RNA molecule is attached to a unique sequence barcode. Sequence reads having different barcodes represent different original molecules, while sequence reads having the same barcode are results of PCR duplication from one original molecule. Discover the latest research on molecular barcoding here.

Chronic Fatigue Syndrome

Chronic fatigue syndrome is a disease characterized by unexplained disabling fatigue; the pathology of which is incompletely understood. Discover the latest research on chronic fatigue syndrome here.

Evolution of Pluripotency

Pluripotency refers to the ability of a cell to develop into three primary germ cell layers of the embryo. This feed focuses on the mechanisms that underlie the evolution of pluripotency. Here is the latest research.

Position Effect Variegation

Position Effect Variagation occurs when a gene is inactivated due to its positioning near heterochromatic regions within a chromosome. Discover the latest research on Position Effect Variagation here.

STING Receptor Agonists

Stimulator of IFN genes (STING) are a group of transmembrane proteins that are involved in the induction of type I interferon that is important in the innate immune response. The stimulation of STING has been an active area of research in the treatment of cancer and infectious diseases. Here is the latest research on STING receptor agonists.

Microbicide

Microbicides are products that can be applied to vaginal or rectal mucosal surfaces with the goal of preventing, or at least significantly reducing, the transmission of sexually transmitted infections. Here is the latest research on microbicides.
