“…AMI only accounts for 1% of all patients with acute abdomen, while its incidence significantly increases in patients >70 years of age [ 4 ]. AMI occurs in 1 of every 1000 hospital admissions, while some studies have reported up to 5% hospital mortality [ 5 ]. AMI is a potentially lethal vascular emergency associated with mortality over 60% if diagnosis takes more than 12 h and 90% if it takes longer than 24 h [ 6 ].…”

Acute mesenteric ischemia (AMI) is a vascular emergency resulting from decreased blood flow caused by the occlusion of the mesenteric vessels, hypoperfusion, or vasospasm. This study aimed to investigate the prognostic value of the fibrinogen-to-albumin (FAR) ratio in patients with acute mesenteric ischemia. A total of 91 patients were enrolled in the study. Patients’ demographics such as age and gender, pre- and postoperative hemoglobin, CRP, white blood cell (WBC), neutrophils, preoperative lymphocyte, alanine transaminase (ALT), aspartate transaminase (AST), thrombocytes, and postoperative D-dimer values were recorded. In addition, pre- and postoperative fibrinogen and albumin levels were recorded, and FAR was calculated. Patients were divided into two groups, survivors and non-survivors. The mean pre- and postoperative fibrinogen levels were statistically significantly higher in the non-survivor group than in the survivor group ( p < 0.001). The mean pre- and postoperative albumin levels were significantly lower in the non-survivors than in the survivors ( p = 0.059, p < 0.001; respectively). The mean pre- and postoperative FAR ratios were considerably higher in the non-survivor than in the survivor groups ( p < 0.001). The change between pre- and postoperative fibrinogen, albumin, and FAR values was statistically significant between the non-survivors and the survivors (for all, p < 0.05). The preoperative and postoperative fibrinogen levels were significantly lower, and albumin levels were significantly higher in the survivor compared to the non-survivor patients with AMI. Furthermore, the preoperative and postoperative FAR ratio was significantly higher in the non-survivors. The FAR ratio may be a valuable prognostic biomarker for patients with AMI.

Objective: To describe the pulmonary ultrasound findings in a case series of patients with COVID-19. Method: Ten patients with a confirmed diagnosis of COVID-19 by PCR were included. A 2-dimensional, 12-quadrant lung ultrasound was performed on each patient. Results: The identified patterns were: alterations of the pleural line due to disruption/unevenness (100%), pleural thickening (100%), subpleural consolidation (90%) and laminar pleural effusion (80%), pattern B1 (60%), pattern B2 (40%) and consolidation (20%), which correlates with autopsy findings reported in literature, characterized by interstitial infiltrate, alveolar collapse, and pulmonary condensation. Conclusions: Pulmonary ultrasound provides information on the status of patients with COVID-19, which allows modifying the therapy used, impacting clinical results and optimizing the use of available resources. The findings of this descriptive study correspond to those described worldwide, concluding that most patients will have some pathological pleuropulmonary finding at the time of their initial evaluation, which shows that ultrasound is a useful study in evaluation and follow-up of patients with
