Triglyceride-glucose index and clinical outcomes in sepsis: A retrospective cohort study of MIMIC-IV.

Although accumulating researches were done for investigating the relationship between triglyceride-glucose index (TyG index) and different diseases, none of the researches have been made in sepsis yet. In this study, we aimed to explore the relationship between TyG index and clinical outcomes in sepsis based on a large critical care public database. Sepsis patients in Medical Information Mart for Intensive Care IV (MIMIC-IV) Database were included.

The association of depressive symptoms with adverse clinical outcomes in hypertension: Data from SPRINT randomized trail.

Objective: This study intends to explore the effect of depressive symptoms on adverse clinical outcomes in middle-aged and elderly hypertensive patients.

Methods: This post hoc analysis was conducted using data from the Systolic Blood Pressure Intervention Trial (SPRINT), and we used cox proportional risk regression to examine the relationship between depressive symptoms and adverse clinical outcomes (primary outcome, all-cause mortality, cardiovascular disease(CVD) mortality, heart failure(HF), myocardial infarction(MI), non-myocardial infarction acute coronary syndrome(non-MI ACS)).

Results: In a follow-up study of 9259 participants, we found that depression symptoms was significantly and positively associated with the primary outcome (HR 1.

The association between bedtime at night and diabetes in US adults: Data from National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey (NHANES) 2015-March -2020 pre-pandemic.

Objective: The purpose of this study was to investigate the relationship between bedtime at night and the risk of diabetes in adults.

Methods: We extracted data from 14,821 target subjects from the NHANES database for a cross-sectional study. The data on bedtime came from the question in the sleep questionnaire: "What time do you usually fall asleep on weekdays or workdays?".

The relationship between serum ferritin level and clinical outcomes in sepsis based on a large public database.

This study aimed to investigate the relationship between serum ferritin level and prognosis in sepsis. It also explored the potential prognostic value of serum ferritin for predicting outcomes in sepsis based on a large public database. Sepsis patients in MIMIC-IV database were included.

Albumin Level is Associated with Short-Term and Long-Term Outcomes in Sepsis Patients Admitted in the ICU: A Large Public Database Retrospective Research.

Objective: This study aimed to explore the relationship between albumin level with short- and long-term outcomes in sepsis patients admitted in the intensive care unit (ICU) based on a large public database to provide clinical evidence for physicians to make individualized plans of albumin supplementation.

Methods: Sepsis patients admitted in the ICU in MIMIC-IV were included. Different models were performed to investigate the relationships between albumin and mortalities of 28-day, 60-day, 180-day and 1-year.

A non-linear positive relationship between serum phosphate and clinical outcomes in sepsis.

Objective: This study aimed to evaluate the possible relationship between serum phosphate and short-term outcomes in sepsis.

Methods: This was a retrospective study. Sepsis patients in MIMIC-IV database were included.

Association Between Lactate and 28-Day Mortality in Elderly Patients with Sepsis: Results from MIMIC-IV Database.

Introduction: This study aimed to explore the association of serum lactate with clinical outcomes in elderly patients with sepsis based on data from the MIMIC-IV database.

Methods: All elderly patients with sepsis (age ≥ 65 years) were included. Different models were constructed for exploring the relationships between lactate and 28-day mortality.

Uric acid and blood pressure in NHANES dated from 2009 to 2018: A cross-sectional research.

Background And Aim: This study aimed to explore the association between uric acid (UA) and blood pressure (BP), included systolic blood pressure (SBP), diastolic blood pressure (DBP) and mean arterial pressure (MAP).

Methods And Results: A cross-sectional study with 22,478 individuals aged from 12 to 80 years (11,443 males and 11,035 females) from the National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey (NHANES) was performed. Multiple linear regression analysis was applied to explore the relationship between UA and BP, Stratified analysis and interaction were performed based on gender, race, age, body mass index (BMI), and alcohol consumption.

Spontaneous rupturing of splenic artery aneurysm: Another reason for fatal syncope and shock (Case report and literature review).

Splenic artery aneurysm (SAA) is a rare condition; however, it is one of the most common intra-abdominal aneurysm. In the emergency department (ED), due to an uncommon cause of shock and syncope in SAA, it poses great diagnostic challenge for emergency physicians. Here we reported a case of spontaneous rupturing of SAA.

Different clinical characteristics between recurrent and non-recurrent acute pancreatitis: A retrospective cohort study from a tertiary hospital.

Background: Acute pancreatitis (AP) is a common digestive disorder with different clinical outcomes, some of which develop into recurrent acute pancreatitis (RAP). This study aimed to explore the differences between AP and RAP.

Methods: All patients with AP admitted to Changsha Central Hospital between January 2015 and December 2020 were included.

Association of Uric Acid With Blood Pressure in Hypertension Between Treatment Group and Non-treatment Group.

This study aimed to explore the association between uric acid (UA) and blood pressure (BP) in hypertension treatment and non-treatment groups. A cross-sectional study with 6,985 individuals from the National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey (NHANES) was performed. Multiple linear regression analysis was performed to explore the relationship of UA and BP in hypertension between the treatment group ( = 5,983) and the non-treatment group ( = 1,002).

Association between sleep duration on workdays and blood pressure in non-overweight/obese population in NHANES: a public database research.

This study aimed to explore the association between sleep duration on workdays and blood pressure (BP) including systolic blood pressure (SBP) and diastolic blood pressure (DBP) in non-overweight/obese population. A cross-sectional study composed of 2887 individuals from NHANES was conducted. Subjective sleep duration on workdays were evaluated by the questionnaire.

Association Between Bedtime at Night and Systolic Blood Pressure in Adults in NHANES.

This study aimed to explore the association between bedtime at night and systolic blood pressure (SBP) in adults. We conducted a cross-sectional study composed of 7,642 individuals from the National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey (NHANES). Bedtime was defined as the response to the question: "What time do you usually fall asleep on weekdays or workdays?" SBP was taken using the average of all measured values.
