Background: It is not known if sex differences in the risk of premature cardiovascular disease (CVD) vary by whether a woman had preeclampsia or not. The current study determined whether prior preeclampsia brings a woman's risk of CVD closer to that of a male counterpart.
Methods: A population-based cohort study was completed in Ontario, Canada, from 1993 to 2017.
Objective: This study aimed to examine whether prenatal biochemical screening analytes are associated with an increased risk of severe maternal morbidity (SMM) or maternal mortality.
Study Design: This population-based cohort study includes all women in Ontario, Canada, who underwent prenatal screening from 2001 to 2011. Increasing fifth percentiles of the multiple of the median (MoM) for alphafetoprotein (AFP), total human chorionic gonadotropin, unconjugated estriol (uE3), dimeric inhibin-A (DIA), and pregnancy-associated plasma protein A were evaluated.
Background: To examine antibiotic stewardship program (ASP) structure among high-performing hospitals and determine which components of the 2016 Infectious Diseases Society of America (IDSA)/Society for Hospital Epidemiology of America (SHEA) ASP guidelines are implemented at each site.
Methods: A survey of the highest-ranking hospitals, compiled from the 2015-2016 US News and World Report's Best Hospital Rankings, was conducted from August to December 2016. This corresponded to 138 adult and 62 pediatric unique hospitals.
