Objective: To identify specific subgroups of older patients at risk of repeated hospital readmissions and death.
Design: Prospective, multicentre, DAMAGE (Patient Outcomes After Hospitalization in Acute Geriatric Unit) cohort of adults aged 75 and over, discharged from an acute geriatric unit (AGU) and followed up for 12 months.
Setting: Six recruiting hospital centres in the Hauts-de-France and Normandie regions of France.

Background: Atrial fibrillation (AF) is the most common arrhythmia worldwide. Data regarding 30-day readmission following index admission for AF in the developing world are poorly described.
Objectives: The study aimed to assess the rate, predictors, and trends of 30-day readmission after index admission for AF in Syria.

Introduction: Many patients with cervical spondylotic myelopathy (CSM) undergo anterior cervical discectomy and fusion (ACDF). Many of these patients are readmitted, but there is no clear understanding of drivers of readmission. The aim of this study was to assess the patient- and hospital-level factors that contribute to 7-, 30-, and 90-day readmissions after treatment of CSM.

Objective: Symptomatic thoracic disc herniations (TDH) are relatively rare and can be discovered incidentally on neuroimaging. Surgical interventions for TDH represent only 4 % of all surgeries performed for intervertebral disc pathologies, which are most commonly indicated for myelopathy and radiculopathy. Given the absence of publications on rates of readmissions following hospitalization for TDH, we aim to establish baseline metrics for the 90-day all-cause readmission rates and pertinent risk factors.

Background: Despite extensive research on COVID-19 and its association with myocarditis, limited data are available on readmission rates for this subset of patients. Thirty-day hospital readmission rate is an established quality metric that is associated with increased mortality and cost.
Methods: This retrospective analysis utilized the Nationwide Readmission Database for the year 2020 to evaluate 30-day hospital readmission rates, risk factors, and clinical outcomes among COVID-19 patients who presented with myocarditis at their index hospitalization.
