Article Synopsis
- Hypocalcemia, defined as serum calcium levels ≤ 2.12 mmol/L, is linked to worse outcomes and higher mortality rates in patients with acute pulmonary embolism (APE).
- A study of 803 APE patients found that those with hypocalcemia had significantly higher in-hospital and 2-year mortality rates, enhancing the prediction accuracy of the European Society of Cardiology (ESC) prognostic algorithm when serum calcium levels were included.
- The findings suggest that serum calcium could become an important factor in risk assessment for APE patients, potentially improving management and patient outcomes.

Introduction: We aim to explore the risk factors for in-hospital mortality and to derive a prognostic model for patients with APE in China.
Materials And Methods: Inpatients with APE were enrolled from West China Hospital between January 2016 and December 2019. Logistic regression analyses were used to explore risk factors for in-hospital mortality and develop a prognostic model.
Importance: Rapid spread of severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus-2 (SARS-CoV-2) in Wuhan, China, prompted heightened surveillance in India. Since the first laboratory confirmed case of SARS-CoV-2 was reported from Kerala on January 30, 2020 novel coronavirus infected pneumonia (NCIP) has been presenting to the hospital emergencies as severe acute respiratory illness (SARI). We aim to find out the rate of SARS-CoV-2 positivity in SARI cases and further clarify the epidemiological and clinical characteristics of NCIP in New Delhi, India.
