Type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) is a chronic metabolic disorder, and critically ill patients with T2DM in intensive care unit (ICU) have an increased risk of mortality. In this study, we investigated the relationship between nine inflammatory indicators and prognosis in critically ill patients with T2DM to provide a clinical reference for assessing the prognosis of patients admitted to the ICU. Critically ill patients with T2DM were extracted from the Medical Information Mart for Intensive Care-IV (MIMIC-IV) database and divided into training and testing sets (7:3 ratio).

Introduction: Outpatient total knee arthroplasty (TKA) has quickly grown in popularity, largely driven by policy shifts and the recent coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) pandemic. The aim of this study was to compare 30-day complications between outpatient TKA (oTKA) versus inpatient TKA (iTKA) before and after the COVID-19 pandemic to elucidate the effect of the pandemic on utilization and short-term outcomes.
Methods: Patients who underwent primary TKA between 2008 and 2021 were identified through Current Procedural Terminology codes in a national database.
