The COVID-19 pandemic has disproportionately affected socially vulnerable communities. Some individuals experience persistent symptoms and conditions of illness known as long COVID. As little research examined how social vulnerability is related to COVID, we studied this topic using Minority Health Social Vulnerability Index (MHSVI), specifically created for the in U.S. We merged county-level MHSVI data with population-based Michigan adults PCR-confirmed SARS-CoV-2 infection between March...
Abstract Purpose To (1) assess whether residential rurality/urbanicity was associated with the prevalence of 30‐ or 90‐day long COVID, and (2) evaluate differences in COVID risk factors might explain this potential disparity. Methods We used data from Michigan COVID‐19 Recovery Surveillance Study, a population‐based probability sample adults (n = 4,937). measured using dichotomized Rural‐Urban Commuting Area codes (metropolitan, nonmetropolitan). considered outcomes 30‐day (illness duration...

Although meningioma is a benign tumour, it may cause significant morbidity. Obesity and diabetes are positively associated with meningioma. To evaluate the potential effects of obesity-related prediagnostic glucose, triglycerides cholesterol on these biomarkers, we conducted cohort study.We identified 41 355 individuals in Apolipoprotein MOrtality RISk values for biomarkers within 15 years before diagnosis, death, migration or end follow-up. We then estimated hazard ratios (HRs) their...
The objective was to determine the nasal carriage prevalence of methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA) among emergency medical service (EMS) personnel and associated risk factors. A cross-sectional study conducted Ohio EMS randomly sampled from 84 urban rural agencies. Surveys assessing demographics, occupational history, health, cohabitation status, hygiene practice were collected with swabs those who enrolled. Survey weight adjusted analysis performed (1) estimate MRSA...
The severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus-2 (SARS-CoV-2) pandemic led to overuse of antimicrobials, which increased concerns regarding antimicrobial resistance.To measure the impact a multiplex polymerase chain reaction (PCR) pneumonia panel on empirical antibiotic treatment for patients with critical coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) suspected bacterial superinfection.This descriptive, prospective study was undertaken in 36-bed intensive care unit from June 2020 July 2021....
Abstract Background Growing evidence suggests that severe acute COVID-19 illness increases the risk of long COVID (also known as post–COVID-19 condition ). However, few studies have examined associations between symptoms and onset. Objective This study aimed to examine symptom profiles prevalence using a population-based sample. Methods We used dual mode (phone web-based) probability survey adults with polymerase chain reaction–confirmed SARS-CoV-2 June 2020 May 2022 in Michigan Disease...
During the early stages of COVID-19 pandemic, use preventive behaviors was associated with perceived risk for contracting SARS-CoV-2 infection (1,2).Over time, has declined along waning COVID-19-related media coverage (3,4).The extent to which communities continue be aware local transmission levels and are implementing recommended is unknown.During June 1-July 31, 2022, health departments in DuPage County, Illinois metropolitan Detroit, Michigan surveyed a combined total 4,934 adults who had...
Growing evidence suggests that individuals with COVID-19 face stigmatization, which is associated poor health outcomes and behaviors. However, very few population-based studies have examined risk factors for experiencing stigma. This study prevalence predictors of perceived stigma using a probability sample adults COVID-19.
Objectives: To develop and implement a pilot online data collection tool to help local health departments with their COVID-19 pandemic response efforts inform department actions. Design: The Outbreak Public Evaluation (COPE) was an survey distributed by participating sites individuals who recently tested positive for SARS-CoV-2. Surveys recorded participant demographics assessed recent infection risk behaviors (eg, mask use, air travel), vaccination status, sleep exercise habits, social...
Many individuals with coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) faced stigmatization, which may contribute to poor health. However, very few studies have explored the relationship between COVID-19 stigma and health, even less is known about differences in by race ethnicity. This article examines associations mental health overall We used a population-based probability sample of Michigan adults SARS-CoV-2 infection March 2020 May 2022. captured based on perceived stigma, fear disclosure friends or...
Multi-Resistant Organisms (MRO) healthcare-associated infections (HAI) are closely associated with contamination of surfaces. Outsourced companies usually in charge both hospital hygiene and environmental personnel (EHP) supervision, which can result bias.A quasi-experimental study. The intervention was to add the "Hospital Environment Hygiene Nurse" (HEHN). MRO acquired infection rate colonized were calculated, pre post intervention. Confounding variables: carriage upon admission...
The COVID-19 pandemic has worsened existing racial health disparities and discrimination in healthcare; however, little is known about how healthcare settings related to mental during the pandemic. Using a population-based probability sample of ethnic minoritized adults with polymerase chain reaction (PCR)-confirmed SARS-CoV-2 infection Michigan, we examined measures perceived (1) seeking for (n=1,210) (2) receiving testing/treatment (n=1,364) were associated binary variables depressive...

Background.Methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA) is an organism responsible for varying forms of infection and considered a major public health threat.Carriage rates MRSA in hospital personnel has been shown to be higher than the general population.Little research done describe emergency medical
The COVID-19 pandemic has worsened existing racial health disparities and discrimination in healthcare; however, little is known about how healthcare settings related to mental during the pandemic. Using a population-based probability sample of adults with polymerase chain reaction (PCR)-confirmed SARS-CoV-2 infection Michigan, we examined measures perceived (1) seeking care for (n=4,133) (2) receiving testing/treatment (n=4,181) were associated binary variables depressive anxiety symptoms....
INTRODUCTION: Surgical site infections (SSI) following cesarean delivery (CD) are a major cause of morbidity and economic burden. Our tertiary-care hospital implemented multidisciplinary SSI surveillance system preventative bundles to reduce rate after CD. objective was measure the effect 3 on post-CD SSI. METHODS: A retrospective single-center cohort study all CD July 2012 December 2017 performed. Infections were identified via 30-day active using CDC definitions by one infection...
Background: Methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA) can be found in emergency medical services (EMS) ambulances. This poses an occupational risk and patient safety hazard. Screening for environmental contamination is often not performed due to limited resources logistical challenges. study’s objective was compare traditional screening of individual surfaces versus “pooled sampling” efficiently identify contamination.
 Methods: A cross-sectional study, conducted among 145 Ohio...
