Aim: To evaluate the predictive value of preoperative echocardiographic parameters for occurrence of VAs in patients with preexisting ICD undergoing LVAD implantation.

Methods And Results: All consecutive patients (n = 264) with previous ICD who underwent LVAD surgery between May 2011 and December 2019 at our institution were included. The patients were predominantly male (89%) with NICM (59%) and a mean age of 59 ± 10 years.

Article Synopsis
  • The study focused on periprosthetic femur fractures (PPF) following total hip arthroplasty (THA) to assess mortality rates and risk factors associated with these fractures.
  • Findings revealed a one-year mortality rate of 23.4% and a two-year rate of 29.2%, with significant risk factors including age, gender, type of treatment, and time of surgery.
  • Surgery during normal working hours greatly reduced mortality rates, while revision arthroplasty resulted in lower mortality compared to conservative treatment or plate fixation.

Objective: The bejective was to determine health literacy (HL) and care aspects of those affected by Long-COVID.

Method: 407 patients with Long-COVID and long-term neuropsychiatric symptoms were interviewed in the LIFE study center. In addition to descriptive analyses, regression models were calculated to examine the relationships between health literacy (HLS-EU-Q16) and various aspects of care (RehaQ-N1).

Numerous studies on post-COVID syndrome (PCS) describe persisting symptoms of cognitive impairment. Previous studies, however, often investigated small samples or did not assess covariates possibly linked to cognitive performance. We aimed to describe 1) global and domain-specific cognitive performance in adults with PCS, controls with previous SARS-CoV-2 infection and healthy controls, 2) associations of sociodemographics, depressive symptoms, anxiety, fatigue, somatic symptoms and stress with cognitive performance and subjective cognitive decline (SCD), using data of the LIFE-Long-COVID-Study from Leipzig, Germany.

Background: Mortality of patients with a femoral neck fracture is high, especially within the first year after surgery, but also remains elevated thereafter. The aim of this study was to identify factors potentially associated with long-term mortality in patients homogeneously treated with hemiarthroplasty for femoral neck fracture.

Methods: This retrospective cohort study was performed at a single level 1 national trauma center at the university hospital of Leipzig (Saxony, Germany).
