Objective: We analyzed trends in thyrotoxicosis hospitalizations with and without thyroid storm in the U.S. between 2016 and 2020.
Methods: We analyzed data from the national inpatient database using ICD-10 codes for thyrotoxicosis (E05). We compared demographics using X2 tests. Trends in hospitalization outcomes were assessed using Cuzick's test. Hospital costs were adjusted for inflation using the 2020 consumer price index. Odds of mortality and secondary outcomes were analyzed using multivariable logistic regression. Hospital stay in the 95th percentile was considered prolonged.
Results: 33,430 hospitalizations were analyzed. Hospitalization rates declined from 7,444 in 2016 to 5,424 in 2020 (Ptrend=0.002). Mortality rates increased for both hospitalizations without storm (10 [0.17%] in 2016 to 55 [1.30%] in 2020; Ptrend<0.001) and with thyroid storm (10 [0.62%] in 2016 to 50 [4.15%] in 2020; Ptrend=0.051). There was an uptrend in prolonged hospitalization rates in the total study cohort (11.9% [3,978] to 14.6% [4,881]; Ptrend=0.030). Total hospital costs increased from $36,408 to 49,031: Ptrend<0.001). A similar uptrend was observed with ($45,343 to $69,321; Ptrend <0.001) and without storm ($34,066 to $42,703; Ptrend<0.001). Thyroid storm was correlated with higher odds of major adverse cardiovascular events (MACEs) (aOR: 1.05; 95% CI: 1.02-1.17; P=0.002) including acute heart failure (aOR: 1.15; 95% CI: 1.03-1.78; P<0.001) sudden cardiac death (aOR: 1.23; 95% CI: 1.04-2.17; P=0.041), and atrial fibrillation (aOR: 1.17; 95% CI: 1.05-2.06; P<0.001).
Conclusion: Hospitalization rates for thyrotoxicosis reduced while mortality rates significantly increased. There was an uptrend in healthcare costs, prolonged hospitalization, and the incidence of MACEs.

Background: This study aims to analyze the patient characteristics, clinical outcomes, and contemporary trends concerning type A aortic dissection (TAAD) in previous recipients of abdominal solid organ transplantation (ASOT) in the United States.
Methods: The National Inpatient Sample was queried to identify all patients aged ≥18 with TAAD and a history of ASOT (TAAD-ASOT) between 2002 and 2015Q3 using ICD-9 diagnosis and procedure codes. Baseline characteristics and in-hospital outcomes were compared between TAAD-ASOT patients and TAAD patients without a history of ASOT (TAAD-non-ASOT).

Background: Syndromic surveillance systems are crucial for the monitoring of population health and the early detection of emerging health problems. Internationally, there are numerous established systems reporting on different types of data. In the Netherlands, the Nivel syndromic surveillance system provides real-time monitoring on all diseases and symptoms presented in general practice.

The study of the T786C polymorphism of the endothelial nitric oxide synthase (eNOS) gene in arterial hypertension is important as its correlation with adipokine imbalance is a novelty area to find associations between hypertension development, obesity, and heredity. The purpose of the current study was to investigate serum adipokines levels, depending on the T786C polymorphism of the eNOS in patients with arterial hypertension.

Anthropogenically forced climate change signals are emerging from the noise of internal variability in observations, and the impacts on society are growing. For decades, Climate or Earth System Models have been predicting how these climate change signals will unfold. While challenges remain, given the growing forced trends and the lengthening observational record, the climate science community is now in a position to confront the signals, as represented by historical trends, in models with observations.

Women's attitudes towards physical intimate partner violence are a major determinant of the likelihood of their exposure to physical intimate partner violence. In this study, we scrutinize the third, fourth, and fifth rounds of the National Family Health Survey using descriptive analyses and logistic regression models to understand the trends, patterns, and drivers of women's attitudes towards physical intimate partner violence across various demographic and socioeconomic groups in India. Our findings reveal a noticeable decline in the level of women's acceptability of physical intimate partner violence over the past 15 years, albeit at a slow pace.
