CVP provides continuous and simple monitoring of the risk of congestion and is easily repeatable in patients with a central venous catheter. In contrast, VExUS offers an intermittent, organ-level evaluation of established congestion and may help identify the venous waterfall phenomenon. Furthermore, assessment of pulmonary congestion should not be overlooked.<\/div>\n<div class=\"hungryfeed_item_author\">Author: Xiang Si<\/div>\n<div class=\"hungryfeed_item_date\">Posted: May 7, 2026, 10:00 am<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"hungryfeed_item\">\n<div class=\"hungryfeed_item_title\"><a href=\"https:\/\/pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov\/42096426\/?utm_source=SimplePie&amp;utm_medium=rss&amp;utm_campaign=None&amp;utm_content=1tyP_Q3NRDkxDQzslh3ERNIP_D61fLB14BrLwIYn8P0hrPJsdl&amp;fc=None&amp;ff=20260508110629&amp;v=2.20.0\" target='_blank'>Effects of deconstructed Tai Chi step training combined with conventional rehabilitation on lower limb function in brunnstrom stage III stroke patients: A randomized controlled trial<\/a><\/div>\n<div class=\"hungryfeed_item_description\">CONCLUSION: Deconstructed Tai Chi stepping training combined with conventional rehabilitation was associated with greater improvement in lower limb motor function, walking ability, and joint mobility than conventional rehabilitation plus limb synergy training in patients with Brunnstrom Stage III stroke. This stage-specific protocol may represent a practical adjunct to stroke rehabilitation, although confirmation in larger trials is still needed.<\/div>\n<div class=\"hungryfeed_item_author\">Author: Jinxin Chang<\/div>\n<div class=\"hungryfeed_item_date\">Posted: May 7, 2026, 10:00 am<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"hungryfeed_item\">\n<div class=\"hungryfeed_item_title\"><a href=\"https:\/\/pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov\/42098636\/?utm_source=SimplePie&amp;utm_medium=rss&amp;utm_campaign=None&amp;utm_content=1tyP_Q3NRDkxDQzslh3ERNIP_D61fLB14BrLwIYn8P0hrPJsdl&amp;fc=None&amp;ff=20260508110629&amp;v=2.20.0\" target='_blank'>Risk of intracranial hemorrhage in critically ill ACLF patients: a retrospective single center cohort study<\/a><\/div>\n<div class=\"hungryfeed_item_description\">CONCLUSIONS: Although statistical analysis showed a tendency to a higher incidence of ICH in the ACLF group compared to controls, ICH did not occur significantly more frequently in patients with ACLF.

Nevertheless, novel drugs are rarely used. In addition to the lack of large randomized controlled drug trials in children, important obstacles are lack of authorization, lack of reimbursement, and lack of suitable formulations. These issues should be addressed by both the industry and healthcare providers to continuously improve drug therapy...<\/div>\n<div class=\"hungryfeed_item_author\">Author: Joel B\u00e4rlocher<\/div>\n<div class=\"hungryfeed_item_date\">Posted: May 7, 2026, 10:00 am<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"parent":155,"menu_order":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","template":"","meta":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.library.wmuh.nhs.uk\/wp\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages\/1704"}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.library.wmuh.nhs.uk\/wp\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.library.wmuh.nhs.uk\/wp\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/page"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.library.wmuh.nhs.uk\/wp\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.library.wmuh.nhs.uk\/wp\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=1704"}],"version-history":[{"count":3,"href":"https:\/\/www.library.wmuh.nhs.uk\/wp\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages\/1704\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":3011,"href":"https:\/\/www.library.wmuh.nhs.uk\/wp\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages\/1704\/revisions\/3011"}],"up":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.library.wmuh.nhs.uk\/wp\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages\/155"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.library.wmuh.nhs.uk\/wp\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=1704"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
