Prehospital management in mobile stroke units (MSUs) reduced global disability at discharge compared to standard emergency medical services (EMS) in acute ischemic stroke patients. MSU patients had higher utility-weighted modified Rankin Scale (UW-mRS) scores and greater independent ambulation (53.3% vs. 48.3%). No significant differences were noted in symptomatic intracranial hemorrhage or in-hospital mortality.

The Neutrophil-to-Lymphocyte Ratio (NLR) and Platelet-to-Lymphocyte Ratio (PLR) have emerged as valuable prognostic tools for urosepsis in patients with obstructing ureteral stones and suspected urinary tract infections. Both NLR and PLR, along with positive blood cultures, significantly predict the need for vasopressor requirements, ICU admission, and the development of urosepsis.

Early interventions to achieve a normal BMI during childhood are crucial for long-term lung health. Individuals with accelerated increasing BMI showed reduced lung function at age 24, indicated by lower FEV1/FVC ratios & higher lung clearance index, compared to those with stable normal BMI. Individuals with persistent low BMI showed ongoing lung deficits, while those whose BMI normalized had no adverse lung effects.

In a study of over 18,000 ICU patients with sepsis, delaying invasive BP (IBP) monitoring by three hours or more was associated with a 20% increase in 28-day mortality and a 21% increase in 90-day mortality, compared to early IBP monitoring. Delays were also associated with higher risks of AKI, need for renal replacement therapy & mechanical ventilation. Prompt IBP monitoring was also tied to shorter ICU stays.
