00). The incidence of serotype 3 decreased from 10.4 to 6.9 casos per 100 000 population, although it was the serotype involved most frequently in patients with severe disease. After the introduction of the PCV13, there has been a significant decrease in IPD cases. Serotype 3 continues to be an important cause of severe IPD.

Therapeutic plasma exchange (TPE) is an extracorporeal blood purification technique used in a wide spectrum of diseases. We aim to review the indications, complications, and outcomes of critically ill children who received TPE and to compare a membrane versus centrifugal method in this cohort. A retrospective observational study in two pediatric intensive care units in Chile during eight years (2011-2019) Results A total of 36 patients underwent 167 TPE sessions (20 centrifugation and 16 membrane-based). The more frequent indications for TPE were autoimmune neurological diseases in 14 cases, renal diseases (9), and rheumatological disorders (5). 58 % of children received other immunomodulatory therapy. According to ASFA, 45 % of cases were I-II category, 50 % to III, and 5% not classified. Response to treatment was complete in 64 % (23/36) and partial in 33 % (12/36). Complications occurred in 17.4 % of sessions, and the most frequent was transient hypotension during the procedure. Overall survival at discharge from the PICU was 92 %. Patients who received TPE as a single therapy (n = 26) survived 96 %. The clinical outcomes between the two apheresis methods were similar. Survivors had a significantly lower PELOD score on admission (14.5 vs. 6.5, p = 0.004). TPE is mainly indicated as a rescue treatment in neurological autoimmune diseases refractory to conventional immunomodulatory treatment. Complications in critically ill children are mild and low. The outcome in children requiring TPE as a single therapy is good, and no differences were observed with centrifugation or membrane method.

We aimed to examine the effect of a blood transfusion protocol including an assessment of fibrin-based rotational thromboelastometry on transfusion volume, mortality, and bleeding complications in patients undergoing cardiac or thoracic aortic surgery. We retrospectively studied a cohort of 376 consecutive patients who underwent cardiopulmonary bypass before (control group 150 cardiac and 35 thoracic aortic surgeries) and after (assessment group 154 cardiac and 37 thoracic aortic surgeries) introducing the fibrin polymerization assessment with thromboelastometry in the blood transfusion protocol. The transfusion volume and clinical outcomes were compared between the control and assessment groups, and the standardized (mean) difference (S[M]D) was calculated as an indicator of statistical effect size. Compared with the control group, the assessment group had a lower total blood transfusion volume (mL) in cardiac (2720 ± 1282 vs. 2034 ± 1330, p less then 0.0001, [SMD] = 0.68) and thoracic aortic surgeries (5236 ± 2732 vs. 3714 ± 1768, p less then 0.0001, SMD = 0.67). The 1-year mortality rates were 1.9 % and 2.7 % in cardiac and thoracic aortic surgeries, respectively. Significant differences were not observed in the 1-year mortality (3.2 % vs. 1.0 %, p = 0.16, relative risk [RR] = 0.32 with 95 % confidence intervals [CI] = 0.06-1.57, SD = 0.15), re-exploration for bleeding (4.8 % vs. 2.6 %, p = 0.28, RR = 0.53 with 95 % CI = 0.18-1.57, SD = 0.12), and major bleeding (17.3 % vs. 13.0 %, p = 0.31, RR = 0.75 with 95 % CI = 0.46-1.22, SD = 0.12) rates between the control and assessment groups. The assessment of fibrin polymerization with thromboelastometry using the blood transfusion protocol reduced the blood transfusion volume in cardiovascular surgery. Multiple factors contribute to anemia in patients with Hepatitis B virus (HBV)related acute-on-chronic liver failure (ACLF); however, the mechanism is unclear. The purpose of this study was to evaluate the clinical significance of the direct antiglobulin test (DAT) in patients with HBV related ACLF. DAT was used to detect immunoglobulins and/or complement proteins on the surface of erythrocytes. We recruited 78 HBV-associated ACLF patients, 30 chronic hepatitis B(CHB)patients and 40 healthy people between October 2015 and May 2016. In HBV related ACLF patients, the hemoglobin concentration, number of erythrocytes, and hematocrit value were significantly lower, while the erythrocyte distribution width was significantly higher, compared to patients with CHB and healthy controls (HCs) (P < 0.001). https://www.selleckchem.com/products/asciminib-abl001.html The rates of DAT positivity in HBV related ACLF patients, CHB patients, and HCs were 62.8 %, 13.3 %, and 0%, respectively. DAT-positive ACLF patients exhibited lower Hb levels, older average age, as well as higher total bilirubin, alanine aminotransferase, and complement component 3 levels compared to DAT-negative patients. HBV related ACLF patients showed significant alterations in erythrocyte parameters, possibly reflecting disease development and severity. The high presence of erythrocyte autoantibodies suggested that immunologic clearance of erythrocytes contributed to multifactorial anemia in HBV related ACLF patients.

This area can be a challenge to reconstruct effectively to minimise morbidity and there are limited published techniques. This flap is a reproducible, one-stage technique that is readily available to most ENT surgeons, avoiding stenosis and allowing for adequate reconstruction of the external auditory canal.
