Article Synopsis
- Delirium is a common and serious condition in elderly ICU patients, linked to longer hospital stays, higher costs, and increased mortality risks.
- The study examined how a history of falls affects ICU outcomes, particularly looking at delirium, pressure injuries, and urinary tract infections using the MIMIC-IV database.
- Results showed a 40% delirium rate but significantly higher (54.4%) in those with fall histories, indicating that falls increase the likelihood of delirium and other complications, highlighting the importance of early intervention to improve patient outcomes.
Objective: This study aimed to determine the current epidemiological status of PLWHA aged ≥ 50 years in China from 2018 to 2021. It also aimed to recommend targeted interventions for the prevention and treatment of HIV/AIDS in elderly patients.
Methods: Data on newly reported cases of PLWHA, aged ≥ 50 years in China from 2018 to 2021, were collected using the CRIMS.
Aim: To explore the topographic distribution features of choroidal thickness (CT) and retinal nerve fiber layer thickness (RNFLT), and determine the relationship between CT and ocular parameters in school-aged children.
Methods: The healthy school-aged children with low ametropia or emmetropia in Wenzhou were recruited for this cross-sectional study. With high-density optical coherence tomography (HD-OCT) combined with MATLAB software, the CT and RNFLT values in the macular area were measured at different locations and compared.
