MULTIPLE ORGAN FAILURE IN PEDIATRIC CRITICAL CARE: ADVANCES IN PATHOPHYSIOLOGY AND PROGNOSIS by EVGENIYA O. Petrova, EVGENIY V. Grigoriev

“…Multiple organ failure is a leading cause of admission to the intensive care units, characterized by a high case fatality rate and significant financial costs. Here we review the mechanisms of multiple organ failure in pediatric patients (triggers, concomitant diseases, release of danger- and pathogen-associated molecular patterns, bacterial translocation, epithelial, endothelial, or mitochondrial dysfunction, and inadequate immune response) and recent diagnostic and prognostic scales.…”

Tensile Fracture Behavior of Corroded Pipeline: Part 1—Experimental Characterization by Yuchao Yang, Feng Liu, Feng Xi

“…The comparative analysis based on the macroscopic stress-strain relationship shows that the rapid decrease of the yield stress, ultimate strength, and strain at the fracture for corroded pipe are correlated with the fracture patterns; i.e., the fracture patterns of pipe are changed from uniform to scattered with the continuous increase of the corrosion rate. …”

Risk Factors of Clonally Related, Multi, and Extensively Drug-Resistant Acinetobacter baumannii in Severely Ill COVID-19 Patients by Meqdad Saleh Ahmed, Zirak Faqe Ahmed Abdulrahman, Zanan Mohammed Ameen Taha

“…The secondary infection of multi and extensively drug-resistant “Acinetobacter baumannii” in severely ill COVID-19 individuals is usually associated with extended hospitalisation and a high mortality rate. The current study aimed to assess the exact incidence rate of A. baumannii coinfection in severely ill COVID-19 patients admitted to intensive care unit (ICUs), to identify the possible mechanism of A. baumannii transfer to COVID-19 patients and to find out their resistance rate against different antibiotics. …”
