Abstract INTRODUCTION Surveillance colonoscopy is routinely performed in patients with inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) to decrease the risk of colorectal cancer (CRC). There limited data regarding exacerbation gastrointestinal symptoms as an adverse effect colonoscopy, which may impact patient compliance CRC surveillance. METHODS Using a large national database, we conducted propensity score-matched, retrospective cohort study 1,604 IBD and 25,000 without who underwent surveillance or...
Background: Inhaled pulmonary vasodilators are used as adjunctive therapies for the treatment of refractory hypoxemia. Available evidence suggest they improve oxygenation in a subset patients without changing long-term trajectory. Given differences respiratory failure due to COVID-19 and “traditional” ARDS, we sought identify their physiologic impact. Methods: This is retrospective observational study mechanically ventilated COVID-19, from ICUs 2 tertiary care centers, who received inhaled...
Lymphoedema is a chronic condition affecting daily activities of life causing significant alterations and adjustments. Since 2015, lymphaticovenous anastomosis (LVA) has been available on the National Health Service (NHS) for people with lymphoedema in Wales, United Kingdom (UK). The aim this study was to explore impact outcomes after LVA over 24-months follow up. Methods Data prospectively captured before surgery 150 patients unilateral upper or lower limb lymphoedema. same team (three...
Blood pressure (BP) is routinely invasively monitored by an arterial catheter in the intensive care unit (ICU). However, available data comparing accuracy of noninvasive methods to catheters for measuring BP ICU are limited small numbers and diverse methodologies.
Prone positioning is widely used in mechanically ventilated patients with COVID-19; however, the specific clinical scenario which individual most poised to benefit not fully established. In COVID-19 respiratory failure requiring mechanical ventilation, how effective prone improving oxygenation and can that response be predicted?This a retrospective observational study from two tertiary care centers including consecutive for 3/1/2020 - 7/1/2021. The primary outcome improvement as measured by...
Physician-rating websites are being increasingly used by patients to help guide physician choice. As such, an understanding of these and factors that influence ratings is valuable physicians.We sought perform a comprehensive analysis online urology information, with specific focus on the relationship between number or comments overall rating.We analyzed urologist Healthgrades website. The data retrieval focused staff information. Our included descriptive statistics correlation performance...
Abstract Aims To assess whether routine urodynamic testing (UDT) in women undergoing slings for uncomplicated stress urinary incontinence (SUI) has decreased following publication of the landmark VALUE study, which recommended against UDT SUI. Methods We identified Virginia All Payers Claims Database diagnosed with SUI between 2011 and 2016 using International Classification Disease (ICD) codes (N39.3, 625.6). Appropriate ICD/CPT (current procedural terminology) were used to exclude...
Introduction and Objective: Glucagon-like peptide 1 receptor agonists (GLP-1 RA) have been associated with both increased (Bezin 2023) decreased risk (Wang of certain cancers in patients type 2 diabetes (T2DM). We investigated the developing 13 obesity-associated malignancies T2DM who received GLP-1RA compared other anti-hyperglycemic agents except insulin. Methods: conducted a real-world retrospective cohort study on 130 million US adults using deidentified electronic health records from...
Background and Aims: Primary sclerosing cholangitis (PSC) is a liver disease without medical therapy that significantly increases the risk of malignancies, acute cirrhosis. Approximately 2-7% patients with inflammatory bowel (IBD) develop PSC. No drug has been shown to prevent de novo PSC in IBD. Statin use, however, associated increased transplant-free survival. Yet, impact statins on development new among those IBD unknown. Methods: We conducted retrospective cohort study diagnosed statin...
Patients are increasingly using online rating websites to obtain information about physicians and provide feedback. We performed an analysis of urologist ratings, with specific focus on the relationship between overall subspecialty. conducted ratings Healthgrades.com . Ratings were sampled across 4 US geographical regions, 3 practice types (large small private practice, academic) 7 urologic subspecialties. Statistical was assess for differences among subgroup ratings. Data analyzed 954...
