Length of Hospital Stay and Its Predictions Among Patients With Exacerbations of Chronic Respiratory Diseases.
J Eval Clin Pract
February 2025
Department of Biopharmaceutics and Clinical Pharmacy, School of Pharmacy, University of Jordan, Amman, Jordan.
Background: Chronic respiratory disorders such as asthma and chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) may deteriorate into acute exacerbations requiring hospitalization. Assessing the predictors of prolonged hospital stays could help identify potential interventions to reduce the burden on patients and healthcare systems.
Aim: This study aimed to identify the risk factors attributed to prolonged hospital stays among patients admitted with acute exacerbations of chronic respiratory disorders in Jordan.
Impact of sodium-glucose cotransporter inhibitors in acute coronary syndrome patients on endothelial function and atherosclerosis related-biomarkers: ATH-SGLT2i pilot study.

Department of Cardiology, Rabta Teaching Hospital, University of Medicine Tunis, Tunis, Tunisia.
Little is known about the effects of sodium-glucose co-transporter 2 inhibitors (SGLT2i) on atherosclerosis. We aimed to determine if a 90-day intake of Dapagliflozin could improve atherosclerosis biomarkers (namely endothelial function assessed by flow-mediated dilatation [FMD] and carotid intima-media thickness [CIMT]) in diabetic and non-diabetic acute coronary syndrome (ACS) patients when initiated in the early in-hospital phase. ATH-SGLT2i was a prospective, single-center, observational trial that included 113 SGLT2i naive patients who were admitted for ACS and who were prescribed Dapagliflozin at a fixed dose of 10 mg during their hospital stay for either type 2 diabetes or for heart failure.

January 2025
Li Ka Shing Knowledge Institute, St Michael's Hospital, Toronto, Ontario, Canada.
Importance: There have been limited evaluations of the patients treated at academic and community hospitals. Understanding differences between academic and community hospitals has relevance for the design of clinical models of care, remuneration for clinical services, and health professional training programs.
Objective: To evaluate differences in complexity and clinical outcomes between patients admitted to general medical wards at academic and community hospitals.
The Effect of PCSK9 Monoclonal Antibodies on Platelet Reactivity and Cardiovascular Events in Patients Receiving Primary Percutaneous Coronary Intervention: A Propensity Score-Matched Analysis.
Am J Cardiovasc Drugs
January 2025
Department of Pharmacy, Zhongshan Hospital, Fudan University, Shanghai, China.
Background: Proprotein convertase subtilisin/kexin type 9 (PCSK9) monoclonal antibodies (mAbs) have demonstrated promising effects in lowering cardiovascular incidents among patients with acute coronary syndrome. However, their influence on early platelet reactivity after primary percutaneous coronary intervention (PPCI) remains unclear.
Objectives: This research sought to investigate the effects of entirely human anti-PCSK9 antibodies on platelet function as measured by thrombelastography and 12-month postoperative results in patients receiving PPCI and treated with ticagrelor-based dual antiplatelet therapy.
Current applications and research trends of ultrasound examination in acute kidney injury assessment: a bibliometric analysis.
Int Urol Nephrol
January 2025
Department of Intensive Care Unit, School of Medicine, Tianjin First Central Hospital, Nankai University, Tianjin, People's Republic of China.
Background: Acute kidney injury (AKI) is a significant clinical condition, and ultrasound examination has emerged as a crucial non-invasive imaging method for assessing kidney status, especially in its diagnosis and management. This study aims to perform a bibliometric analysis to clarify current research trends in ultrasound assessment of AKI.
Methods: We conducted a literature search in the Web of Science database using keywords related to ultrasound examinations of acute kidney injury, up to November 15, 2023.
