An honor to have participated in the International Board of the XXI Congress of the European Shock Society. Congratulations to Borna Relja for an excellent scientific program and the perfect organization.Top speakers & an intense scientific exchange. The abstracs are available in the journal Shock.

Fantastic meeting of the European Shock Society at Dubrovnick, where I presented our work on proteomics associated to AI to stratify infection severity europeanshocksociety.org/Welcome---21...

It’s World #Sepsis Day Sepsis kills 11 million people each year. Symptoms incl.: 🔸Fever or shivering 🔸Confusion 🔸Shortness of breath 🔸Rash that does not fade when pressed 🔸Extreme discomfort 🔸Sweaty skin Seek medical care as soon as possible when an infection is not getting better.

Today is the World's Sepsis Day. From our research group at IBSAL / USAL / CIBERES we are working to improve early detection and personalised medicine in this deadly condition...#IDsky #sepsis

I deeply condemn the terrorist attack in Jerusalem today. Hopefuly violence could stop soon in Israel and Palestine.

Influenza vaccination is now a well recognized and recommended intervention for cardiovascular prevention. But, are cardiologists prepared and ready to recommend it ? My letter on the topic published in Atherosclerosis. #IDSky #VaccineSky www.atherosclerosis-journal.com/article/S002...

I came here to talk on infectious diseases, the topic I research into, but I cannot stay silent when the Israel Gov is applying the 'Endlösung' to the Palestinian people with the absolute inaction from the European Union.Shame on the EU, shame on all of us for letting this occur in front of our eyes

#Medsky🧪 #IDsky #pedsky #immunosky @jama.com This #cohortstudy of pediatric #sepsis found associations with EBV seropositivity, supporting growing evidence that latent EBV infection is a significant, underrecognised, and potentially remediable #globalpublichealth problem.

Our new issue is live. So it's time to dive in!

#Medsky🧪 #IDsky #immunosky #Episky #publichealth The study has demonstrated an association between the #SARSCoV2 rebound & #Longcovid mortality in 🏥 groups & across antiviral treatment groups.

Israel has lost its place between the civilized countries in the world. Those Israelis touched by this genocide should press their government to stop this madness!

The political momentum is evolving from the axis 'left / right' to a new one: 'pro-democracy / pro-dictatorships'. I miss those times of healthy exchange of opinions between people thinking different...

I wonder what Auschwitz's survivors would say about what their grandsons are doing to the Palestinians...Stop this madness now! www.bbc.com/news/videos/...

Systemic corticosteroids for CAP 🟢For adult inpatients with non-severe CAP, we recommend NOT administering systemic corticosteroids (strong recommendation, low-quality evidence) 🟢For adult inpatients with severe CAP we suggest systemic corticosteroids #idsky

Closing USAID (which will kill thousands of people in Africa), dismantling the American scientific system and impairing vaccine access warrants the Peace Nobel Prize for Trump, I am sure.. Norwegians are preparing the invitation to Oslo already..

I bring here an old article from our group classifying the immunological alterations in sepsis into ten major immunophenotypes. Still useful in my view. #IDsky #immunoSky www.journalofinfection.com/article/S016... www.journalofinfection.com/article/S016...

Ischaemic endothelial necroptosis is the principal mechanism promoting RBC haemolysis. Why? It seems haemolysis of RBCs prevents bleeding. The RBC membranes act as a seal where endothelial cells have died via necroptosis. But their accumulation can cause a blockage. 6/8

Analysis of >1,000 COVID-19 patients vessels by researchers in Sydney: They found that endothelial necroptosis, NOT clotting, causes red blood cell rupture and microvascular blockage, revealing a platelet-independent bleeding control system www.nature.com/articles/s41...

Many people stayed in silence when Nazis killed millions of Jews during WWII, and that was really bad... I cannot stay in silence today. 1) Hamas is a terrorist group that must release the hostages. 2) Israeli Goverment is committing genocide against Palestinians. They must stop killing innocents.

Machine-learning analysis identifies “elite” viral controllers with increased survival and homeostatic responses in critical COVID-19. I link here our new paper again since I forgot to include the hastag #IDsky onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1002/...

I originally intended to write the sort of self-congratulatory piece that most would expect, but it didn't quite work out that way...

Europe should stop importing goods from El Salvador. Let me to say something in Spanish: El comportamiento del gobierno del El Salvador tratando así a los presos es una vergüenza para la humanidad...

We celebrate today that Amanda de la Fuente from our group is already PhD.. She has developed a superinteresting work evidencing that combining endothelial and innate immunity biomarkers outperforms individual biomarkers to detect organ failure during infection www.ijidonline.com/article/S120...

We should overcome these terrible times by enhancing international scientific collaboration. We must support our colleagues in the USA. Let's do what we do best, improving people's health by doing research!

Even if we have efficient antivirals in a future Coronavirus or Influenza pandemic, it is really important to have systems in place to early delivery them to patients at the highest risk of complications. Working on these systems in advance is mandatory to decrease mortality in this scenario.

What is happening in US sounds familiar to me. It already happened in my country 400 years ago.. It was called Inquisition, which prevented scientific development in Spain for 300 years... We are still paying the price...

One year ago, I started as professor at one of the best Universities in Spain, University of Salamanca. After more than 20 years working in clinical research in different hospitals, it is a privilege to have the opportunity to teach what I learnt on pneumonia, sepsis and emerging infections

I had the opportunity to work in Canada many years ago. I have to say that it was a fantastic experience. I have good Canadian friends since then. Canada is not interested in annexing other countries, and supports Democracy around the world. I stand with Canada in these terrible days..

New issue out now. Get it while it's hot!

Bernardo de Gálvez and the Spanish Armada helped the US to gain independence from UK. Perhaps we should receive half the US gold reserve in compensation.. I am going to write Vance to ask him to say thanks at least..
