Background: Previous studies have demonstrated that the Naples Prognostic Score (NPS) provides strategic direction in the prognosis of malignant illness. Nevertheless, its relationship with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) remains underexplored. Therefore, additional research specifically focusing on the relationship between the Naples Prognostic Score and COPD is necessary to determine its widespread applicability.
Objectives: The objective was to explore the relationship between the NPS and the susceptibility to developing COPD.
Methods: A total of 15,184 participants were included in our research, and statistical analyses were performed after weighting. We used weighted logistic regression to assess whether the NPS and COPD had a relationship, as well as its association with lung function. Subgroup analysis was used to detect the interaction. In addition, Kaplan-Meier survival curves were generated, and adjusted hazard ratios of different causes of death were calculated using Cox regression.
Results: Our investigation examined 15,184 participants' data and then revealed a significant positive link between the NPS and COPD risk, while smoking has an interactive effect on it. A trend toward a decreasing prevalence of lung function indicators such as FEV1 [OR (95%CI), -339.70 (-456.53, -222.87)], FVC [OR (95%CI), -296.70 (-435.34, -158.06)], FEV1/FVC [OR (95%CI), -0.03 (-0.04, -0.02)], predicted FEV1 [OR (95%CI), -0.09 (-0.14, -0.04)], and predicted FVC [OR (95%CI), -0.08 (-0.15, -0.01)] was observed with increased NPS levels. Survival curves were drawn, and Cox regression analysis was conducted by dividing participants into group 0, group 1, and group 2 with NPS values of 0, 1-2, and 3-4, respectively. After assigning participants to groups 0, 1, and 2, with NPS values of 0, 1-2, and 3-4, respectively, the survival curves were created, and the Cox regression analysis was carried out. All-cause mortality [HR (95%CI), 1.68 (1.39-2.85)] and hypertension-related mortality [HR (95%CI), 67.64 (8.88-515.07)] of group 2 were significantly elevated.
Conclusion: The findings of this study suggested that the NPS serves as a robust prognostic indicator of COPD.

General Practice Ward/International Medical Center Ward, General Practice Medical Center, West China Hospital, Sichuan University, Chengdu, China.
Background And Aims: Cirrhosis is characterised by hyperdynamic circulation, which contributes to cirrhotic cardiomyopathy (CCM). However, the expert consensus on CCM did not initially include cardiac structure because of scant evidence. Therefore, this study investigated the associations of cardiac chamber geometry with mortality and CCM.

Importance: 2021 Advance child tax credit (ACTC) monthly payments were associated with reduced US child poverty rates; however, policymakers have expressed concerns that permanent adoption would increase parental substance use.
Objective: To assess whether 2021 ACTC monthly payments were temporally associated with changes in substance use among parents compared with adults without children.
Design, Setting, And Participants: The primary sample included adults aged 18 to 64 years who responded to the National Survey on Drug Use and Health in 2021.

Importance: Administrative health data serve as promising data sources to study transgender health at a population level in the absence of self-reported gender identity.
Objective: To develop and validate case definitions identifying transgender adults in administrative data compared with the reference standard of self-reported gender identity in a universal health care setting.
Design, Setting, And Participants: In this cohort study conducted in Alberta, Canada, data from provincial administrative health data sources including inpatient hospitalizations, emergency department encounters, primary care visits, prescription drug dispensations, and the provincial health insurance registry were linked and used to develop 15 case definitions (9 for transgender women and 6 for transgender men).
