Artificial intelligence (AI) prediction is increasingly used for decision making in health care, but its application for adverse outcomes in emergency department (ED) patients with acute pancreatitis (AP) is not well understood. This study aimed to clarify this aspect. ⋯ The first real-time AI prediction model implemented in the HIS for predicting adverse outcomes in ED patients with AP shows favorable initial results. However, further external validation is needed to ensure its reliability and accuracy.

Immunometabolism is a fascinating field of research that investigates the interactions between metabolic processes and the immune response. This intricate connection plays a pivotal role in regulating inflammatory reactions and consequently exerts a significant impact on the course of sepsis. The proinflammatory response during an immune reaction is closely tied to a high energy demand in immune cells. ⋯ Of particular interest is that not only does the immune reaction influence metabolic pathways, but this connection also operates in reverse. Thus, modulation of metabolic pathways also modulates the immunity of the corresponding cell and thereby the state of the immune system itself. This could potentially serve as an intriguing avenue in sepsis therapy.

Randomized Controlled Trial Multicenter StudyThe safety and efficacy of stem cells for the treatment of severe community-acquired bacterial pneumonia: A randomized clinical trial.
Evaluate the safety profile of expanded allogeneic adipose-derived mesenchymal stem cell (eASC) for the treatment of severe community-acquired bacterial pneumonia (CABP). ⋯ Cx611 was well tolerated in severe CABP. These data provide insights for future stem cell clinical study designs, endpoints and sample size calculation.
