Filter by:The goal of this observational study is to learn about in small bowel adenocarcinoma patients. The main question it aims to answer is the association between tumor size and prognosis in patients with small bowel adenocarcinoma. Participants will be compared for the relationship between tumor size and prognosis.
The goal of this multicenter retrospective cohort study is to investigate the clinical outcomes and prognostic factors after hepatic resection in patients with HCC exhibiting PVTT, and to develop a prognostic index that can be helpful in determining the treatment strategy.
In this study, investigators aimed to develop and validate a risk score to predict severe outcomes (e.g., mortality and ICU admission) in children who were admitted to the Children's Hospital of Fudan University between 2017 and 2022 due to community-acquired pneumonia (CAP). The objectives were as follows. 1. Develop a risk prediction model based on demographic, comorbidity, clinical characteristics, laboratory data, and chest radiographic reports to predict severe outcomes among children hospitalized with CAP; 2. Develop a risk scoring system and determine the cut-off point; 3. Externally validate the easy-to-use risk score.
This multicenter retrospectively observational cohort study was conducted on participants with histologically confirmed gastric and colorectal cancer who underwent radical surgery in 11 medical centers in China from August 1, 2015, to June 31, 2018. Baseline clinicopathologic data and nutritional status assessments including Nutrition Risk Screening 2002 (NRS 2002) score and Patient-generated Subjective Global Assessment (PG-SGA) rating were collected. Variables will be screened using the least absolute shrinkage and selection operator (LASSO) regression model and Cox regression analysis. Internal and external validations will be performed via the receiver operating curve (ROC), the area under the curve (AUC), the concordance index (C-index), calibration plots, decision curve analysis (DCA), and Five folds cross-validation by 200 times.
HF is an advanced or terminal stage of various heart diseases, with high rehospitalization and mortality rates. In HF patients, undernutrition is not uncommon and represents one of the most significant determinants of poor clinical outcomes. Therefore, nutritional management is of paramount importance for patients with HF.The basic method of nutritional management is to effectively identify the nutritional status of patients with heart failure, especially in elderly patients with heart failure who are not easy to find in the early stage. Limited data are available regarding the association between CONUT score and prognosis in elder patients with HFpEF, despite its easy availability in routine blood chemistry. Therefore, we aimed to evaluate the prognostic significance of CONUT score and to compare it with other well-established nutritional indices in HFpEF, a common HF phenotype in the elderly population with coronary artery disease. This was a single-center retrospective cohort study which were approved by the Clinical Research Ethics Committee of our hospital (TRECKY2021-185). Written informed consent was obtained from all patients. Participants were accorded with diagnostic criteria of CAD and HFpEF excluding rheumatic heart disease, congenital heart disease, acute myocardial infarction, hemodialysis or hemofiltration, tumour activity, urgent surgery, death during hospitalization, HF of unknown reasons, New York Heart Association(NYHA) class1and data deficiency. Demographic characteristics and medical parameters were collected from the electronic medical record system . All enrolled patients were followed-up in an outpatients setting. The primary endpoint of this study was readmission due to heart failure and all-cause mortality in the first year after hospitalization. To explore the prognostic significance of controlling nutritional status score in elderly with ejection fraction preserved heart failure and compare controlling nutritional status score with other objective nutritional indices.All analyses were performed using Statistical Product Service Solutions(SPSS) version 19.0 .
The purpose is to investigate if different microparticles and markers of hemostasis predict outcome after TIA or ischemic stroke and to study the association between these variables and stroke subtype or etiology.
Our proposal is to develop a sentinel syndromic surveillance strategy to identify encephalitis cases possibly related to emerging pathogens admitted to ICUs in Brazil. "Sentinel" to allow a diagnostic intensive approach on a smaller number of cases, "syndromic" to guarantee a sensitive criterion to include new or unexpected pathogens, and in ICUs to prioritize potentially severe threats. In a resource-limited setting it won't be possible to monitor and investigate all cases of encephalitis, so a cost-effective algorithm for early identification of the cases that are most likely to be caused by unusual, unexpected or emerging pathogens must be developed. As universal surveillance of encephalitis is not recommended in Brazil, data on incidence, causes and prognosis is not available, leaving a gap in the understanding of the epidemiology of this central nervous system disease in the country. This study will review cases of encephalitis admitted in the last five years to ICUs in a large metropolitan area. Its results will help understand the epidemiology of encephalitis in Brazil and will provide data to build a strategy for early identification of outbreaks and of emerging infectious diseases.
Correlation between Myocardial Deformation and Coronary Tortuosity and Analysis of Genetic Factors Among Hypertrophic Cardiomyopathy Patients
There is no clear consensus on the use of pneumonia severity index (PSI) developed for community-acquired pneumonia in hospital-acquired pneumonia cases. In another aspect, PSI is a relatively difficult scoring system that includes many parameters. This study evaluated whether lactate clearance could be used as a mortality marker instead of PSI in hospital-acquired pneumonia. As a result, lactate clearance was lower in the mortal group and when the diagnostic statistics were evaluated, it was seen that the sensitivity and specificity rates were significantly higher. In conclusion, lactate clearance has been evaluated as a strong predictor of mortality in hospital-acquired pneumonia.
The association between homologous recombination (HR) gene mutations and homologous recombination deficiency (HRD) status in Chinese epithelial ovarian cancer (EOC) patients is little known. This study would recruit 400 Chinese EOC patients with known targeted gene mutations via a multi-panel testing of 27 genes, including BRCA1/BRCA2. All patients accept evaluation of HRD model, which is based on the loss of heterozygosity (LOH), telomere allele imbalance (TAI) and large-scale state transitions (LST). The mutated genes, HRD score model and their relationship with the prognosis, would provide a full description of for the Chinese EOC patients, and a potential explanation of platinum-resistance in such population.
