Predictors and prognosis of elderly hip fracture patients with perioperative atrial fibrillation: a nested case-control study.
BMC Geriatr
January 2025
Department of Orthopaedic Surgery, The Third Hospital of Hebei Medical University, No.139, ZiQiang Lu, Shijiazhuang, Hebei, 050051, PR China.
Background: A scarcity of data exists concerning atrial fibrillation (AF) during the perioperative stage of non-cardiothoracic surgery, particularly orthopedic surgery. In addition, given the frequency and significant impact of AF in the perioperative period, therefore our aim was to identify prognosis and predictors of elderly hip fracture patients with perioperative AF.
Methods: An examination of hip fracture patients at the Third Hospital of Hebei Medical University, who had been hospitalized from January 2018 to October 2020 in succession, was conducted retrospectively.
Prevalence and risk factors of malnutrition among patients receiving hemodialysis in a tertiary level hospital in Mauritius.
J Int Med Res
November 2024
Faculty of Medicine and Health Sciences, University of Mauritius, Mauritius.
Article Synopsis
- - The study investigated the prevalence of malnutrition among 250 hemodialysis patients at a hospital in Mauritius, using a modified Malnutrition-Inflammation Score (MIS) questionnaire to gather data.
- - Results showed that 43.2% of participants were malnourished, with significant links to factors such as diabetes mellitus, duration of hemodialysis, and female sex.
- - The findings highlight that malnutrition is particularly concerning for older patients, women, and those with diabetes, pointing to the need for better nutritional support in these groups.
Association between hyponatremia and disease severity in pediatric urinary tract infections.
BMC Pediatr
November 2024
Department of Pediatrics, Chi Mei Medicine Center, No. 901, Zhonghua Road., Yongkang Dist, Tainan City, 710402, Taiwan.
Article Synopsis
- Acute urinary tract infections (UTIs) are common in children, affecting about 8% of girls and 2% of boys by age 7, with serious cases leading to acute pyelonephritis (APN).
- A study reviewed data from 344 pediatric UTI/APN patients treated from 2012 to 2022, categorizing them by serum sodium levels (hyponatremia vs. eunatremia).
- Results showed that patients with hyponatremia had higher instances of APN and abnormal kidney scans, suggesting hyponatremia might indicate a more severe UTI, although further research is needed to understand its implications.
Impact of Hyponatremia and ADH Secretion in MIS-C and COVID-19: An Integrative Approach of Prognostic and Diagnostic Markers.
Curr Issues Mol Biol
October 2024
Faculty of Medicine and Pharmacy, University "Dunarea de Jos" of Galati, 800201 Galati, Romania.
The COVID-19 pandemic has introduced challenges in pediatric care, especially due to the emergence of Multisystem Inflammatory Syndrome in Children (MIS-C), a severe condition associated with SARS-CoV-2 infection. This study investigated the impact of hyponatremia and antidiuretic hormone (ADH) secretion corelated to clinical outcomes in these patients. We conducted a retrospective cohort study, including 118 pediatric patients, with a detailed sub-cohort analysis of 53 patients for ADH secretion markers.

Sci Rep
November 2024
Liver Cirrhosis Study Group, Department of Gastroenterology, General Hospital of Northern Theater Command (Teaching Hospital of Shenyang Pharmaceutical University), Shenyang, China.
Article Synopsis
- Hyponatremia negatively impacts outcomes in patients with liver cirrhosis, but predicting death risk remains challenging.
- A study identified key predictors for in-hospital death, including ascites, total bilirubin, serum creatinine, and international normalized ratio, using logistic regression analyses.
- An artificial neural network (ANN) model was created, showing better predictive accuracy (AUCs of 0.865 and 0.810) compared to traditional scoring systems like Child-Pugh and MELD.
