Emergency medical services (EMS) activation is an integral component in managing individuals with myocardial infarction (MI). EMS play a crucial role in early MI symptom recognition, prompt transport to percutaneous coronary intervention centres and timely administration of management. The objective of this study was to examine sex differences in prehospital EMS care of patients hospitalized with Ml using data from a retrospective population-based cohort study of linked health administrative data for people with a hospital diagnosis of MI in Australia (2001-18).

Traditional Chinese medicine in synergy with conventional therapy improves renal outcomes and provides survival benefit in patients with systemic lupus erythematosus: a cohort study from the largest health care system in Taiwan.
Curr Med Res Opin
March 2025
Division of Rheumatology, Allergy and Immunology, Linkou Chang Gung Memorial Hospital, Taoyuan, Taiwan.
Background: Systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) is a multifaceted autoimmune disorder that significantly impacts renal function. Despite conventional treatments, morbidity and mortality remain high, necessitating the exploration of safer and more effective therapies, including the potential benefits of Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM) for improving kidney health and survival rates.
Methods: Patients with newly diagnosed with SLE with catastrophic illness certificate were retrospectively enrolled from CGRD between 2005 and 2020.

Division of Paediatric Surgery & Paediatric Urology, Department of Surgery, Prince of Wales Hospital, The Chinese University of Hong Kong, Hong Kong, Hong Kong SAR, China.
Purpose: Prostatic utricle cyst (PUC) is known to be associated with hypospadias. We aimed to investigate the prevalence of PUC in children with proximal hypospadias by cystoscopy, and risk of symptom development after hypospadias repair.
Methods: We retrospectively reviewed the records of patients who underwent 2-stage repair for proximal hypospadias and had cystoscopy for PUC assessment over the period of January 2017-September 2022.
Association between SARS-CoV-2 infection and anti-apolipoprotein A-1 antibody in children.
Front Immunol
March 2025
Department of Pediatrics, Gynecology and Obstetrics, Faculty of Medicine, Geneva, Switzerland.
Background And Aims: Autoantibodies against apolipoprotein A-1 (AAA1) are elicited by SARS-CoV-2 infection and predict COVID-19 symptoms persistence at one year in adults, but whether this applies to children is unknown. We studied the association of SARS-CoV-2 exposure with AAA1 prevalence in children and the association of AAA1 seropositivity with symptom persistence.
Methods: Anti-SARS-CoV-2 and AAA1 serologies were examined in 1031 participants aged 6 months to 17 years old from the prospective SEROCOV-KIDS cohort and recruited between 12.
Artificial Intelligence Screening Tool for Obstructive Sleep Apnoea: A Study Based on Outpatients at a Sleep Medical Centre.
Nat Sci Sleep
March 2025
Department of Otorhinolaryngology, the Central Hospital of Wuhan, Tongji Medical College, Huazhong University of Science and Technology, Wuhan, 430014, People's Republic of China.
Purpose: Due to the lack of clear screening guidelines for different populations, identify strategies for obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) in the outpatient population are unclear, a large number of potential OSA outpatients have not been identified in time. The purpose of our study was to evaluate the applicability and accuracy of artificial intelligence sleep screening in outpatients and to provide a reference for OSA screening in different populations.
Methods: A type IV wearable artificial intelligence sleep monitoring (AISM) device was used to screen adults in the sleep clinic of the Sleep Medical Center for OSA screening, and the general demographic data of the patients were collected.

Objective: A cross-sectional survey was conducted to investigate the differences in preferences, gateway effects, and potential motivations for e-cigarette use among different genders of e-cigarette users in China, thereby providing ideas for the development of public prevention and intervention measures for e-cigarettes.
Methods: This study adopted a combination of online web questionnaires and offline distribution questionnaires to survey 640 e-cigarette users by snowball sampling and convenience sampling in China in 2023. We used the Potential E-Cigarette Dependence Scale, the E-Cigarette Preference Scale, and the General Information Scale to conduct the survey and assessment, and surveyed 360 individuals of those who only used traditional cigarettes for comparison.
