Background: Ischemic stroke affects 15 million people worldwide, causing five million deaths annually. Despite declining mortality rates, stroke incidence and readmission risks remain high, highlighting the need for preventing readmission to improve the quality of life of survivors. This study developed a machine-learning model to predict 90-day stroke readmission using electronic medical records converted to the common data model (CDM) from the Regional Accountable Care Hospital in Gangwon state in South Korea.

Background: Despite of long-lasting tolvaptan treatment, individual renal outcomes are unclear in autosomal dominant polycystic kidney disease (ADPKD). This post-hoc analysis of the TEMPO 3:4 trial aimed to evaluate the predictability of estimated height-adjusted total kidney volume growth rate (eHTKV-α) on renal outcomes.

Methods: In TEMPO 3:4, 1445 patients with ADPKD were randomised to tolvaptan or placebo for 3 years.

Macrocytic anemia, kidney dysfunction, and mortality in general population: Japan specific health checkup study.

Sci Rep

December 2024

Steering Committee of Research on Design of the Comprehensive Health Care System for Chronic Kidney Disease (CKD) Based on the Individual Risk Assessment by Specific Health Check, Fukushima, Japan.

Anemia and chronic kidney disease (CKD), which worsen bidirectionally, are associated with mortality in older adults. This study aimed to examine the association between CKD and the type of anemia and its impact on mortality in the general population. Data from a nationwide database of 203,280 individuals who participated in the annual "Specific Health Check and Guidance in Japan" evaluation between 2008 and 2011 were used.
