Objective: To analyze the factors affecting overall survival (OS) of adult patients with core-binding factor acute myeloid leukemia (CBF-AML) and establish a prediction model.
Methods: A total of 216 newly diagnosed patients with CBF-AML in the First Affiliated Hospital of Zhengzhou University from May 2015 to July 2021 were retrospectively analyzed. The 216 CBF-AML patients were divided into the training and the validation cohort at 7∶3 ratio. The Cox regression model was used to analyze the clinical factors affecting OS. Stepwise regression was used to establish the optimal model and the nomogram. Receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve, calibration curve and decision curve analysis (DCA) were used to evaluate the model performance.
Results: Age(≥55 years old), peripheral blood blast(≥80%), fusion gene (), mutations were identified as independent adverse factors for OS. The area under the ROC curve at 3-year was 0.772 and 0.722 in the training cohort and validation cohort, respectively. The predicted value of the calibration curve is in good agreement with the measured value. DCA shows that this model performs better than a single factor.
Conclusion: This prediction model is simple and feasible, and can effectively predict the OS of CBF-AML, and provide a basis for treatment decision.

The COVID-19 pandemic provided an ideal scenario for studying the care of the elderly population, we implemented a tool named the Geriatric Measure (GM) tool to determine the severity and need for hospitalization. The objective of the study is to evaluate if the results of a brief Geriatric Measure tool are associated with mortality and other outcomes among older adults with COVID-19 treated in the emergency department. Retrospective observational cohort study.

Purpose: Subclinical peroneal neuropathy without overt foot drop has been linked to increased fall risk in adults, yet remains under reported due to subtle symptoms and lack of awareness. Patients with carpal tunnel syndrome (CTS) often experience other nerve entrapments, prompting this study to evaluate CTS (a proxy for peroneal nerve entrapment) as a significant predictor of time to first fall.
Methods: Data from the Merative MarketScan Research Databases (2007-2021) were used to identify adult patients using ICD-9/10 codes.

Background: Diabetes mellitus, particularly Type 2 diabetes (T2D), represents a significant global health challenge, with its prevalence steadily rising over the past few decades. This study was conducted with the aim of estimating the economic burden of T2D in Iran.
Methods: This study employed a prevalence-based approach to estimate the economic burden of T2D and its attributable complications in adults above 20 years old in Iran for 2022.

Introduction: Cardiovascular disease (CVD) is the leading cause of mortality worldwide, though it may be prevented by increasing physical activity (PA). When behaviour change techniques (BCTs) are bundled together, they increase PA, though which individual BCTs increase PA (and the behavioural mechanism of action (MoA) responsible for said increase) have not been studied. The aim of this study is to conduct a randomised factorial experiment to determine which of four BCTs significantly engage the proposed MoA-self-efficacy for PA-in adults at risk for CVD.
