Is antibiotic use in children associated with increased risk of asthma?
This study provides evidence that the use of antibiotics in the first year of life is associated with a small risk of developing asthma, and this risk increases with the number of courses of antibiotics prescribed.
Mean chest Abbreviated Injury Scale score was higher in patients developing pulmonary embolism. Increased weight, body mass index, ISS, and RAP score are associated with subprophylactic anti-Xa levels. Anti-Xa-guided enoxaparin dosing reduced the rate of DVT from 20.5% to 7.1% in high-risk trauma patients.
