When methylene blue fails: a case of methemoglobinemia induced
by azoxystrobin and propiconazole managed by exchange transfusion
Abstract
Background Methemoglobinemia is a potentially life-threatening condition resulting from the oxidation of
hemoglobin’s iron moiety from ferrous (Fe2+) to ferric (Fe3+). Clinical features include cyanosis unresponsive to oxygen
therapy,…

Waiting time ambulances in the Emergency
Department; a Dutch single center study
(WAITED study)
Abstract
Background Ambulance offload delay (AOD) indicates the persistent and increasingly visible problem of Emergency
Department (ED) crowding. AOD is defined as the extended time from ambulance arrival at the ED until patient care…

Visualizing the prognostic value of neuron-
specific enolase in acute ischemic stroke:
a bibliometric analysis
Abstract
Introduction In recent years, neuron-specific enolase (NSE) has been explored as a suitable biomarker for cerebral
damage, specifically following ischemic stroke. This bibliometric analysis sought to illuminate patterns in…

Validation of Emergency Surgery Score (ESS) as outcome prediction score in Egyptian patients undergoing emergency laparotomy
Abstract
Background Emergency laparotomy is an exploratory procedure for many surgical situations. Proper prognostic
prediction helps recognize high-risk patients who benefit from further therapy. The Emergency Surgery Score
(ESS) was developed as…

Utilization of acute medical services in general practice: a retrospective routine data analysis
Abstract
Background The increasing utilization of emergency departments by patients with acute but non-emergency
medical needs contributes to overcrowding in emergency care. Previous research has mainly focused on hospitals
and out-of-hours care…
