Background: The impact of atrial fibrillation (AF) among patients with amyloidosis on in-hospital outcomes is not well-established. We aimed to examine in-hospital outcomes among patients admitted with a primary diagnosis of AF with and without amyloidosis.
Methods And Results: We queried the Nationwide Readmissions Database to compare the in-hospital outcomes among AF patients with and without amyloidosis. Our study demonstrated that in-hospital all-cause mortality, adverse events, and 30-day readmission were comparable between the two groups.
Conclusions: Patients with AF and concurrent amyloidosis did not have worse in-hospital outcomes than those with AF alone.

Poorer longitudinal growth among HIV exposed compared to unexposed infants in Kenya.
J Acquir Immune Defic Syndr
December 2024
Departments of Epidemiology and Anthropology, University of Washington, Seattle, WA, USA.
Background: Most infants born to women living with HIV (WLH) are HIV-exposed but uninfected exposed infants have poorer growth than HIV-unexposed uninfected children. Few large studies have compared children who are exposed (CHEU) and unexposed (CHUU) in the era of dolutegravir (DTG)-based antiretroviral treatment (ART).
Setting: Longitudinal study of mother-infant CHEU and CHUU pairs in Nairobi and Western Kenya.
Preadmission VACS Index as a Predictor of Hospital Acute Kidney Injury in People with HIV.
J Acquir Immune Defic Syndr

Division of Nephrology, Albert Einstein College of Medicine, Montefiore Health System, Bronx, NY.
Background: The Veterans Aging Cohort Study (VACS) Index is a summary measure of routinely obtained clinical variables that predicts numerous health outcomes. Since there are currently no tools to predict acute kidney injury (AKI) in persons with HIV (PWH), we investigated the association of preadmission VACS Index with hospital AKI in PWH.
Methods: We conducted an observational study of PWH hospitalized in a New York City health system between 2010-2019.
Real-world efficacy of transfusion with liberal or restrictive strategy in traumatic brain injury.

Department of Critical Care Medicine, The First Affiliated Hospital of Anhui Medical University, Hefei, Anhui, China.
Objective: The short-term efficacy of red blood cell (RBC) transfusion among general traumatic brain injury (TBI) patients is unclear.
Methods: We used the MIMIC database to compare the efficacy of liberal (10 g/dL) versus conservative (7 g/dL) transfusion strategy in TBI patients. The outcomes were neurological progression (decrease of Glasgow coma scale (GCS) of at least 2 points) and death within 28 days of ICU admission.
Pathology and risk stratification-based evaluation of ovarian masses on MRI.
J Med Imaging Radiat Oncol

Department of Radiology, Royal Prince Alfred Hospital, Sydney, New South Wales, Australia.
Characterisation of an indeterminate ovarian mass is important as it guides management and clinical outcomes. Ultrasound is the first-line modality in the assessment of ovarian tumours. When ovarian masses are indeterminate on ultrasound, MRI provides excellent resolution in tissue characterisation and enhancement patterns.

Objective: Pharmacoresistant tremors, often seen in Parkinson disease and essential tremor, significantly impair patient quality of life. Although deep brain stimulation has been effective, its invasive nature limits its applicability. MR-guided focused ultrasound (MRgFUS) thalamotomy offers a noninvasive alternative, but its cognitive impacts are not fully understood.
