Patient care registries allow physicians to identify patients based on a subset of conditions, including medicine prescribed, laboratory results and diagnosis. The presence of EHRs and a physician's ability to query across patient medical records is unknown in Massachusetts. A survey was conducted to examine the presence of EHRs in medical practices, and the degree to which EHRs enable physicians to carry out registry functions. EHR adoption was correlated with the use of registry functions.

Ultrasound evaluation of gastric emptying for two different quantities of milk in elementary school-aged children.
Eur J Pediatr
January 2025
Department of Anesthesiology, Children's Hospital Affiliated to Shandong University & Jinan Children's Hospital, No. 23976, Jingshi Road, Jinan, 250012, China.
Unlabelled: Current guidelines recommend 6-h milk fasting in periprocedural settings; however, recent evidence suggests potential overconservativeness and supports more liberal pediatric fasting protocols. This study assessed the gastric emptying of two different milk quantities in elementary school-age children using gastric ultrasonography. This prospective crossover trial involved 30 healthy children who fasted overnight on two separate occasions within one month, consuming either 5 or 10 mL/kg of milk.

Unlabelled: It is known that in most cases of congenital central hypoventilation syndrome (CCHS), apnoeas and hypoventilation occur at birth. Nevertheless, a detailed description of initial symptoms, including pregnancy events and diagnostic tests performed, is warranted in infants with neonatal onset of CCHS, that is, in the first month of life. The European Central Hypoventilation Syndrome Consortium created an online patient registry from which 97 infants (44 females) with CCHS of neonatal onset and PHOX2B mutation from 10 countries were selected.

Radiol Cardiothorac Imaging
February 2025
From the Department of Cardiology (L.P., W.J., J.L., W.Q., Y.X., Y.K., Q.Z., Y.C.), Department of Geriatrics (K.W.), and Center of Rare Diseases (Y.C.), West China Hospital, Sichuan University, No. 37, Guo Xue Road, Chengdu, Sichuan 610041, China; and Wexner Medical Center, College of Medicine, The Ohio State University, Columbus, Ohio (Y.H.).
Purpose To assess the predictive value of left atrial (LA) fast long-axis strain derived from cardiac MRI for thrombotic events (TEs) in individuals with hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (HCM). Materials and Methods This secondary analysis of an ongoing prospective trial (Chinese Clinical Trial Registry: ChiCTR1900024094) included consecutive participants with HCM without atrial fibrillation (AF) who underwent cardiac MRI from January 2012 to December 2020. The LA fast long-axis strain was obtained by semiautomatically tracking the distance between the atrioventricular junction and the midposterior LA wall.

An imaging biomarker that more strongly correlates with post-EVT functional outcome would be helpful for clinical prognosis and serve as a surrogate outcome measure in trials of EVT-adjuvant therapies. Here, we aimed to validate a novel MRI-based metric, infarct density, which leverages post-EVT apparent diffusion coefficient (ADC) as a marker of infarct severity.

Department of Laboratory Medicine, Qilu Hospital of Shandong University Dezhou Hospital, Dezhou, Shandong, 253000, People's Republic of China.
Background: This study investigates the correlation between the weight-adjusted waist index (WWI) and cognitive performance in the senior American population, focusing on those without diabetes from 2011 to 2014.
Methods: We analyzed data from the 2011-2012 and 2013-2014 National Health and Nutrition Examination Surveys (NHANES), focusing on non-diabetic participants aged 60 and older who completed cognitive tests: Establish a Registry for Alzheimer's disease (CERAD), the Animal Fluency test (AFT), and Digit Symbol Substitution test (DSST). WWI was calculated using waist circumference divided by the square root of body weight.
