Early albumin administration in eCPR patients was linked to a significant decline in fluid balance. Moreover, volume therapy with albumin application was an independent predictor for improved survival in eCPR...
Early albumin use in eCPR patients reduced fluid balance and improved survival, showing benefit over crystalloids; no such effect was seen in cardiogenic shock patients on VA ECMO.

Some orofacial pains (OFP) resemble primary headache disorders, but involve the trigeminal nerve V2 or V3 dermatome. The International Classification of Orofacial Pain (ICOP) distinguishes three types of such OFPs:...
A 46-year-old woman with persistent toothache and orbital pain, initially diagnosed as Type 1 orofacial pain, progressed to Type 2. The case underscores differentiating nonodontogenic from odontogenic pain for proper treatment.
Efficacy and safety of a four-drug, quarter-dose treatment for hypertension: the QUARTET USA randomized trial - PubMed
Source : https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/38584159/
New approaches are needed to lower blood pressure (BP) given persistently low control rates. QUARTET USA sought to evaluate the effect of four-drug, quarter-dose BP lowering combination in patients with...
The QUARTET USA trial tested a four-drug, quarter-dose combination pill against standard candesartan in hypertensive adults. Results showed no significant systolic BP difference but improved diastolic BP with comparable safety.
