Neutrophil ‐to‐lymphocyte ratio in relation to trauma severity as prognosis factors in patients with multiple injuries complicated by multiple organ dysfunction syndrome: A retrospective analysis
Conclusiond-dimer level, ISS, NLR, and CS-24h are important risk factors for MODS in patients with multiple injuries. Notably, NLR expression may be a good indicator of injury severity and predictor of the occurrence of MODS in patients with multiple injuries. Therefore, assessment of injury severity and coagulation function, active resuscitation, as well as prevention of infection should be emphasized during treatment of multiple injuries, to reduce and prevent the risk of MODS in patients with multiple injuries.

Cardiac troponin as a prognosticator of mortality in patients with sepsis: A systematic review and meta ‐analysis
ConclusionsOverall, our finding revealed that elevated cardiac troponin for sepsis patients was a predictor of hospital and long-term mortality. Clinicians may treat septic patients with elevated cardiac troponin more cautious to avoid extra death. Moreover, large clinical studies are warranted to validate this association.

Safety and efficacy of mesenchymal stem cells in COVID ‐19 patients: A systematic review and meta‐analysis
ConclusionsMSCs are a viable therapy option for COVID-19 because of their safety and potential efficacy. With no significant adverse effects, MSCs can reduce mortality, clinical symptom improvement time, and days to hospital discharge, improve clinical symptoms, and reduce inflammatory cytokines CRP in COVID-19. However, further high-quality clinical studies are required to confirm these results. (Source: Immunity, Inflammation and Disease)

Diagnostic values of serum BNP, PTX3, and VEGF in acute pulmonary embolism complicated by pulmonary artery hypertension and their correlations with severity of pulmonary artery hypertension
ConclusionSerum BNP, PTX3, and VEGF levels are significantly elevated in APE-PAH patients. Serum BNP, PTX3, and VEGF levels are of clinical value in the diagnosis of APE-PAH patients, and serum BNP, PTX3, and VEGF levels are positively correlated with the severity of PAH and can be used as predictors of the severity of PAH.
