Unlabelled: Heart failure (HF) is a grave problem in the clinical and public health sectors. The aim of this study is to develop a phenotyping algorithm to identify patients with HF by using the medical information database network (MID-NET) in Japan.

Methods: From April 1 to December 31, 2013, clinical data of patients with HF were obtained from MID-NET. A phenotyping algorithm was developed with machine learning by using disease names, examinations, and medications. Two doctors validated the cases by manually reviewing the medical records according to the Japanese HF guidelines. The algorithm was also validated with different cohorts from an inpatient database of the Department of Cardiovascular Medicine at Tohoku University Hospital.

Results: The algorithm, which initially had low precision, was improved by incorporating the value of B-type natriuretic peptide and the combination of medications related to HF. Finally, the algorithm on a different cohort was verified with higher precision (35.0% → 87.8%).

Conclusions: Proper algorithms can be used to identify patients with HF.

Objective: This study investigates the relationship between the albumin-to-creatinine ratio and diabetic retinopathy (DR) in US adults using NHANES data from 2009 to 2016. This study assesses the predictive efficacy of the urinary serum albumin-to-creatinine ratio (UACR/SACR Ratio) against traditional biomarkers such as the serum albumin-to-creatinine ratio (SACR) and urinary albumin-to-creatinine ratio (UACR) for evaluating DR risk. Additionally, the study explores the potential of these biomarkers, both individually and in combination with HbA1c, for early detection and risk stratification of DR.

Background: Ulcerative colitis patients who undergo ileal pouch-anal anastomosis (IPAA) without mucosectomy may develop inflammation of the rectal cuff (cuffitis). Treatment of cuffitis typically includes mesalamine suppositories or corticosteroids, but refractory cuffitis may necessitate advanced therapies or procedural interventions. This review aims to summarize the existing literature regarding treatments options for cuffitis.
