Cardiac index, SvO(2) or pCO(2) gap may determine benefit from ECMO in cardiogenic shock: post-hoc analysis of the multicenter, randomized ECMO-CS trial
CONCLUSIONS: Measurement of cardiac index, pCO(2) gap and SvO(2) could improve the management of cardiogenic shock. The presence of any of the following criteria — low cardiac index, high pCO(2) gap and low SvO(2) — may indicate a poor prognosis with conservative therapy and a substantial mortality benefit from mechanical circulatory support. →

Impairment of neck and shoulder function after neck dissection: a comparative study of goniometry, EMG and paper pencil tool in a randomized controlled trial of level IIb preserving verses conventional neck dissection
CONCLUSIONS: The study demonstrates agreement between shoulder function measurements (goniometry and EMG) but discordance with NDII. This discrepancy may arise from the distinct constructs used by NDII to assess neck dissection impairment, highlighting potential limitations in its sensitivity to functional recovery. →
