Published: July 2015

Medically unexplained dyspnoea in the pulmonary setting is often accompanied by considerable levels of anxiety, suggestive of psychopathology, in particular panic disorder (PD). This pilot study investigates the value of the Multidimensional Dyspnea Profile as a tool to facilitate identification of a specific dyspnoea profile suggestive of comorbid PD. The verbal descriptors, feeling depressed, air hunger and concentrating on breathing, significantly differentiated between the two groups of patients with pulmonary disease with and without PD.

A prospective study of diagnostic testing and hospital charges after brief resolved unexplained event.

J Pediatr Gastroenterol Nutr

January 2025

Institutional Centers for Clinical and Translational Research, Boston Children's Hospital, Boston, Massachusetts, USA.

Objectives: To evaluate diagnostic testing frequency/yield and determine drivers of hospital charges in a prospective cohort of infants with brief resolved unexplained event (BRUE) to test the hypothesis that length of stay (LOS), low-yield diagnostic testing, and repeat hospital visits increase costs.

Methods: We conducted a prospective cohort study of infants admitted after BRUE to determine how clinical practice impacts the cost of care. Charge data from our institution's billing records database included room and board, diagnostics, medications, and professional fees for index hospitalizations and 6-month follow-ups.

Background: Our previous study has identified an association of a single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) in the miR-423 gene with recurrent spontaneous abortion (RSA). The presence of additional RSA-linked SNPs in the miR-423 gene remains unclear.

Methods: We evaluated polymorphisms in the coding region of miR-423 in Han Chinese women with unexplained RSA (URSA).
