In order to develop a practical classification of spontaneous intraventricular haemorrhage (IVH), a correlation was made between clinical and computed tomographic (CT) factors in 324 patients with IVH between September 1988 and December 1996. Spontaneous IVH was graded according to age, blood pressure, clinical conditions, conscious state on admission, primary site of bleeding, volume of intraparenchymal haematoma, degree of midline shift, degree of hydrocephalus and location of IVH, producing a score up to 20. A score of 0-5 was Grade I, 6-10 Grade II, 11-15 Grade III, 16-20 Grade IV. The mortality of each Grade, respectively, was 1.6%, 22.5%, 76% and 100%. The authors propose that this grading system may be a practical schema in the evaluation of the prognosis for IVH.

Mutational signatures define immune and Wnt-associated subtypes of ampullary carcinoma.
Gut
December 2024
Biotech Research and Innovation Center (BRIC), Department of Health and Medical Sciences, University of Copenhagen, Copenhagen, Denmark
Background And Objective: Ampullary carcinoma (AMPAC) taxonomy is based on morphology and immunohistochemistry. This classification lacks prognostic reliability and unique genetic associations. We applied an approach of integrative genomics characterising patients with AMPAC exploring molecular subtypes that may guide personalised treatments.

Urogynecology (Phila)
December 2024
Department of Obstetrics & Gynecology, ChristianaCare, Newark, DE.
Importance: Exposure to the surgical management of obstetric anal sphincter injuries (OASIS) is limited during obstetrics training.
Objectives: The objective of this study was to quantify residents' exposure to OASI repair during 4-year obstetrics and gynecology (OBGYN) residency and examine temporal trends over a 16-year period.
Study Design: This was a retrospective cohort study of residents' exposure to OASIS at a community academic hospital from 2007 to 2022.
Atrial Fibrillation Impacts Inpatient Mortality, Length of Stay, Resource Utilization, Blood Transfusion, and Endotracheal Intubation in Cesarean Sections, Natural Spontaneous Deliveries, and Instrumental Deliveries: A Nationwide Analysis (2016-2020).
Cureus
November 2024
Internal Medicine, Montefiore New Rochelle Hospital, Albert Einstein College of Medicine, New Rochelle, USA.
Background: Atrial fibrillation (AF) is rare during pregnancy and current data on the impact of AF during delivery is scarce. In this study, we aim to analyze the impact of AF in patients who underwent delivery via cesarean section (CS), natural spontaneous delivery (NSD), or instrumental delivery (ID).
Methods: This study analyzed discharge data from the National Inpatient Sample (NIS) from 2016 to 2020.
Bystander Cardiopulmonary Resuscitation and Outcomes of Mass Cardiac Arrests Caused by A Crowd Crush.
Resuscitation
December 2024
Department of Emergency Medicine, Seoul National University Hospital. Electronic address:
Introduction: A crowd crush can lead to respiratory arrest and result in multiple mass cardiac arrests (MCAs), which are often classified as Black Tag in disaster triage. Recently, many laypersons have been commonly trained in compression-only cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR) without ventilation support in various communities. This study aims to describe the characteristics of bystander CPR administered and the outcomes of MCAs during the Itaewon crowd crush incident.

Front Pharmacol
December 2024
Service of Clinical Pharmacology, Hospital Universitari Germans Trias i Pujol, Barcelona, Spain.
Objectives: We aimed to assess the characteristics of adverse drug reactions (ADRs) collected in a university hospital.
Methods: A retrospective analysis of ADRs spontaneously reported in the Hospital Pharmacovigilance Program database (RutiRAM) over a 13-year period was conducted. The analysis included a description of ADRs [System Organ Class (SOC)] and their seriousness, the drugs involved [level 1 of the Anatomical Therapeutic Chemical (ATC) Classification System], drug-drug interactions, medication errors, drugs 'under additional monitoring', positive rechallenge, and the 'pharmacovigilance interest' of ADRs.
