Outcomes of NSTEMI Admissions and Significance of TIMI Scores: A Nationwide Analysis Using the National Inpatient Sample.

: The main aim of this study is to analyze the outcomes of NSTEMI admissions and test the relevance of TIMI as a risk score in a real-world setting. We also examine any potential social or health care disparities involved with outcomes of NSTEMI admissions. This study also investigates factors associated with mortality in NSTEMI admissions and its correlation with heart catheterization during admission.

Infective Endocarditis Outcomes in Congestive Heart Failure Patients.

Background/objectives: The aim of this study is to analyze the difference in hospital outcomes for infective endocarditis (IE) admissions with and without comorbid congestive heart failure (CHF).

Methods: The National Inpatient Sample (NIS) was the database we used to find and sort patient data from inpatient hospitalizations. We then used logit probit regression to analyze the association between patients admitted for IE with and without CHF and their all-cause mortality rates.
