Since the first report in 2009, at least ten additional viruses have been identified and assigned to the proposed virus family Alternaviridae. Here we report two new mycoviruses tentatively assigned to this family, both identified as members of the fungal family Nectriaceae, which were isolated from surface-disinfected apple roots (Malus x domestica, Borkh.) affected by apple replant disease (ARD). ARD is a highly complex, worldwide-occurring disease resulting from plant reactions to a disturbed (micro)-biome and leads to high economic losses every year...

BACKGROUND: Current critical care pharmacist (CCP) practices and perceptions related to neuromuscular infusion (NMBI) use for acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS) maybe different with the COVID-19 pandemic and the publication of 2020 NMBI practice guidelines. OBJECTIVE: To evaluate CCP practices and perceptions regarding NMBI use for patients with moderate-severe ARDS. METHODS: We developed, tested, and electronically administered a questionnaire (7 parent-, 42 sub-questions) to 409 American College of Clinical Pharmacy (ACCP) Critical Care Practice and Research Network members in 12 geographically diverse states...

BACKGROUND: To inform recommendations by the Canadian Task Force on Preventive Health Care, we reviewed evidence on the benefits, harms, and acceptability of screening and treatment, and on the accuracy of risk prediction tools for the primary prevention of fragility fractures among adults aged 40 years and older in primary care. METHODS: For screening effectiveness, accuracy of risk prediction tools, and treatment benefits, our search methods involved integrating studies published up to 2016 from an existing systematic review...

BACKGROUND: The profile of changes in airway driving pressure (dPaw ) induced by positive-end expiratory pressure (PEEP) might aid for individualized protective ventilation. Our aim was to describe the dPaw versus PEEP curves behavior in ARDS from COVID-19 patients. METHODS: Patients admitted in three hospitals were ventilated with fraction of inspired oxygen (FiO2 ) and PEEP initially adjusted by oxygenation-based table. Thereafter, PEEP was reduced from 20 until 6 cmH2 O while dPaw was stepwise recorded and the lowest PEEP that minimized dPaw (PEEPmin_dPaw ) was assessed...

OBJECTIVE: We aimed to identify new classes in acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS) using physiological and clinical variables and to explore heterogeneity in the effects of glucocorticoid therapy between classes. METHODS: Using the Medical Information Mart for Intensive Care-IV database, we identified patients with ARDS. Potential profile analysis was used to identify classes with physiological and clinical data as delineating variables. Baseline characteristics and clinical outcomes were compared between classes...

BACKGROUND: Patient triggered Adaptive Pressure Control (APC-CMV) has been widely adopted as an alternative ventilator mode to patient-triggered Volume control (VC-CMV). However, the comparative effectiveness of the two ventilator modes remain uncertain. RESEARCH QUESTION: We sought to explore clinical and implementation factors pertinent to a future definitive RCT assessing APC-CMV vs VC-CMV as an initial ventilator mode strategy. The research objectives in our pilot trial test clinician adherence and explore clinical outcomes...

OBJECTIVES: Extracorporeal carbon dioxide removal (ECCO2R) devices are effective in reducing hypercapnia and mechanical ventilation support but have not been shown to reduce mortality. This may be due to case selection, device performance, familiarity, or the management. The objective of this study is to investigate the effectiveness and safety of a single ECCO2R device (Hemolung) in patients with acute respiratory failure and identify variables associated with survival that could help case selection in clinical practice as well as future research...

INTRODUCTION: Rituximab, which is used in autoimmune rheumatic diseases (ARD), can cause both an increased risk of development of COVID-19 disease and re-infection due to its potent and long-acting immunosuppression. So, we aimed to evaluate the frequency, risk factors and re-infection rates of COVID-19 in ARD patients receiving rituximab. METHODS: A single-center retrospective study was performed with patients receiving rituximab for ARD in 12 months before the onset of COVID-19 in Turkey...

The severe acute respiratory syndrome-coronavirus-2 (SARS-CoV-2) infection can be asymptomatic or cause a disease (COVID-19) characterized by different levels of severity. The main cause of severe COVID-19 and death is represented by acute (or acute on chronic) respiratory failure and acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS), often requiring hospital admission and ventilator support.The molecular pathogenesis of COVID-19-related ARDS (by now termed c-ARDS) is still poorly understood. In this review we will discuss the genetic susceptibility to COVID-19, the pathogenesis and the local and systemic biomarkers correlated with c-ARDS and the therapeutic options that target the cell signalling pathways of c-ARDS...

OBJECTIVES: Teriparatide (TPTD) is an effective treatment for osteoporosis but the individual response to therapy is variable for reasons that are unclear. This study aimed to determine whether the response to TPTD might be influenced by genetic factors. METHODS: We searched for predictors of the response of bone mineral density (BMD) to TPTD using a two-stage genome-wide association study in 437 patients with osteoporosis from three referral centres. Demographic and clinical data including the response of BMD to treatment at the lumbar spine and hip were extracted from the medical records of each participant...

OBJECTIVES: Given the complex interrelatedness of fluid overload (FO), creatinine, acute kidney injury (AKI), and clinical outcomes, the association of AKI with poor outcomes in critically ill children may be underestimated due to definitions used. We aimed to disentangle these temporal relationships in a large cohort of children with acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS). DESIGN: Retrospective cohort study. SETTING: Quaternary care PICU...

Acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS)-like symptoms and rapid progression characterize the interstitial lung disease known as acute interstitial pneumonitis, also known as Hamman-Rich syndrome. It has a bad prognosis and a high incidence of mortality. We describe the case of a 25-year-old male patient with acute-onset type I respiratory failure with detrimental X-ray abnormalities who presented to the emergency room without any history of pulmonary disease or smoking. The provisional diagnosis of Hamman-Rich syndrome was reached after other clinical entities were ruled out based on CT findings...

INTRODUCTION: Inflammation play important roles in the initiation and progression of acute lung injury (ALI), acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS), septic shock, clotting dysfunction, or even death associated with SARS-CoV-2 infection. However, the pathogenic mechanisms underlying SARS-CoV-2-induced hyperinflammation are still largely unknown. METHODS: The animal model of septic shock and ALI was established after LPS intraperitoneal injection or intratracheal instillation...

BACKGROUND: The coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) pandemic resulted in a surge of patients with refractory hypoxaemic respiratory failure being admitted to the intensive care unit (ICU). Prone positioning can improve oxygenation but requires a team of skilled personnel to complete safely. Critical care physiotherapists (PTs) are ideally suited to lead proning teams, due to their expertise in moving critically unwell, invasively ventilated patients. OBJECTIVES: The aim of this study was to describe the feasibility of implementing a physiotherapy-led intensive proning (PhLIP) team to support the critical care team during surges...
