    Abstract Stress hyperglycaemia, hypoglycaemia, and diabetes are common in critically ill patients and related to clinical endpoints. To avoid complications related to hypoglycaemia and hyperglycaemia, it is recommended to start insulin therapy for the majority of critically ill patients with persistent blood glucose concentrations higher than 10·0 mmol/L (>180 mg/dL), targeting a range of 7·8-10·0 mmol/L (140-180 mg/dL). However, management and evidence-based targets for blood glucose control are under debate, particularly for patients with diabetes. Recent randomised controlled clinical trials now challenge current recommendations. In this Personal View, we aim to highlight these developments and the important differences between critically ill patients with and without diabetes, taking into account the considerable heterogeneity in this patient group. We critically discuss evidence from prospective randomised controlled trials and observational studies on the safety and efficacy of glycaemic control, specifically in the context of patients with diabetes in intensive care units.

    Abstract A 70-year-old male patient was admitted to our dermatology outpatient clinic with newly developed personality changes and signs of hypoxemia. His anti-p200 Pemphigoid was treated with Dapsone for a few weeks. Due to generalized tonic-clonic seizure with a subsequent Glasgow Coma Scale of 5 points and a peripheral oxygen saturation not exceeding 88% under conditions of high-flow nasal cannula, he was intubated by the emergency team and transferred to the intensive care unit. Comprehensive tests were performed, but Dapsone-induced methemoglobinemia remained the exclusive explanation for the observed scenario, although arterial MetHb analysis showed a peak value of only 6%. The patient recovered shortly after repeated infusions of Methylene blue and Ascorbate, and cessation of Dapsone. We provide an overview of the pathophysiology, diagnostic procedures, and possible explanations for this case of Dapsone-induced methaemoglobinaemia. In conclusion, our case report provides evidence that even mild chronic methemglobinemia can induce severe clinical symptoms.

    Abstract 5'AMP-activated protein kinase (AMPK) is known as metabolic sensor in mammalian cells that becomes activated by an increasing adenosine monophosphate (AMP)/adenosine triphosphate (ATP) ratio. The heterotrimeric AMPK protein comprises three subunits, each of which has multiple phosphorylation sites, playing an important role in the regulation of essential molecular pathways. By phosphorylation of downstream proteins and modulation of gene transcription AMPK functions as a master switch of energy homeostasis in tissues with high metabolic turnover, such as the liver, skeletal muscle, and adipose tissue. Regulation of AMPK under conditions of chronic caloric oversupply emerged as substantial research target to get deeper insight into the pathogenesis of non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD). Evidence supporting the role of AMPK in NAFLD is mainly derived from preclinical cell culture and animal studies. Dysbalanced de novo lipogenesis has been identified as one of the key processes in NAFLD pathogenesis. Thus, the scope of this review is to provide an integrative overview of evidence, in particular from clinical studies and human samples, on the role of AMPK in the regulation of primarily de novo lipogenesis in human NAFLD.

    Abstract Sedentary behavior constitutes a pandemic health threat contributing to the pathophysiology of obesity and type 2 diabetes (T2D). Sedentarism is further associated with liver disease and particularly with nonalcoholic/metabolic dysfunction associated fatty liver disease (NAFLD/MAFLD). Insulin resistance (IR) represents an early pathophysiologic key element of NAFLD/MAFLD, prediabetes and T2D. Current treatment guidelines recommend regular physical activity. There is evidence, that physical exercise has impact on a variety of molecular pathways, such as AMP-activated protein kinase and insulin signaling as well as glucose transporter 4 translocation, modulating insulin action, cellular substrate flow and in particular ectopic lipid and glycogen storage in a positive manner. Therefore, physical exercise can lead to substantial clinical benefit in persons with diabetes and/or NAFLD/MAFLD. However, experience from long term observational studies shows that the patients' motivation to exercise regularly appears to be a major limitation. Strategies to integrate everyday physical activity (i.e., nonexercise activity thermogenesis) in lifestyle treatment schedules might be a promising approach. This review aggregates evidence on the impact of regular physical activity on selected molecular mechanisms as well as clinical outcomes of patients suffering from IR and NAFLD/MAFLD.

    Abstract Background: Besides standard medical therapy and critical care monitoring, extracorporeal liver support may provide a therapeutic option in patients with liver failure. However, little is known about detoxification capabilities, efficacy, and efficiency among different devices.
    Methods: Retrospective single-center analysis of patients treated with extracorporeal albumin dialysis. Generalized Estimating Equations with robust variance estimator were used to account for repeated measurements of several cycles and devices per patient.
    Results: Between 2015 and 2021
    Conclusions: From this clinical perspective ADVOS and OPAL may provide higher reduction capabilities of liver solutes (i.e. bilirubin and ammonia) in comparison to MARS and SPAD. However, further prospective studies comparing the effectiveness of the devices to support liver impairment (i.e. bile acid clearance or albumin binding capacity) as well as markers of renal recovery are warranted.
