To evaluate whether the addition of hydrochlorothiazide (HCTZ) to intravenous furosemide is a safe and effective strategy for improving diuretic response in acute heart failure (AHF).A prospective, double-blind, placebo-controlled trial, including patients with AHF randomized receive HCTZ or placebo an regimen. The coprimary endpoints were changes body weight patient-reported dyspnoea 72 h after randomization. Secondary outcomes included metrics mortality/rehospitalizations at 30 90 days....
Abstract This paper contributes to the recent levers of control (LOC) literature on relationships between innovation and management accounting systems (MACS) by emphasising importance choice which individual MACS are selected for interactive use. Using survey data collected from 57 medium-sized Spanish firms, we find evidence supporting (1) use is associated with a firm's mode (IMM), (2) level product output influenced whether or not IMM feature similar cognitive models sophistication...
One hundred thirty-three consecutive episodes of Pseudomonas aeruginosa bacteremia were prospectively followed in a university hospital over 36-month period. The attack rate was 1.8 per 1,000 discharges, and 85% the acquired. P. represented 13.6% 25.6% nosocomial gram-negative bacteremia, respectively. crude mortality 50%. A stepwise logistic regression analysis defined four variables as independently influencing outcome: development septic shock (P = .00002), granulocyte count <500/mm3...
This paper yields insights into the channels through which management accounting and control systems (MACS) exert an influence on product innovation by examining extent to different forms of (i.e. value (VS), diagnostic interactive (ICS)) are directly associated with distinct phases processes. Using survey data collected from 118 medium large Spanish companies, we find that (1) VS ICS have significant main effects creativity, co-ordination knowledge integration, filtering (sub-)phases...
Background The relationship between body mass index (BMI) and mortality in patients with established arterial disease remains controversial. Methods FRENA is an ongoing, observational registry of consecutive outpatients coronary artery (CAD), cerebrovascular disease, or peripheral (PAD). We examined the prognostic importance accepted BMI categories on outcome among registry. Results In April 2008, 2274 (mean age, 66 years) had been enrolled, whom 14 (0.6%) were underweight; 533 (23%) normal;...
We assessed the prevalence of antibodies against hepatitis C virus (HCV-Abs) and active HCV infection in patients infected with human immunodeficiency (HIV) Spain 2016 compared results those similar studies performed 2002, 2009, 2015.The study was 43 centers during October-November 2016. The sample estimated for an accuracy 2% selected by proportional allocation simple random sampling. During 2016, criteria therapy based on direct-acting antiviral agents (DAA) were at least significant liver...
Abstract Objectives To analyse the possible relationship between consumption of old and new MRSA-active antibiotics burden MRSA in acute care hospitals Catalonia during period 2007–12. Methods Fifty-four participating VINCat Programme were included. Proportion (resistant isolates Staphylococcus aureus per 100 S. tested), incidence cases infection [new 1000 occupied bed-days (OBD)] bacteraemia (MRSA OBD) determined to estimate annual burden. Antibiotic was calculated DDD/100 OBD. Cost...
Abstract We studied the clinical, scintigraphic, and histopathologic characteristics of 26 intravenous drug abusers with costochondral involvement secondary to systemic infection Candida albicans . The clinical findings were a mass appearing in anterior region thorax. In general, signs inflammation absent. Histopathologic study this 12 patients showed perichondritis 100% myositis 87%, cartilage 43% bone 75%. Results scintigrams using 99m Tc‐methylene diphosphonate positive only 7 15 (47%),...
Introduction: Clinical evidence indicates that acetylcholinesterase inhibitors (AChEIs) are not efficacious to treat frontotemporal lobar degeneration (FTLD). The British Association for Psychopharmacology recommends avoiding the use of AChEI and memantine in patients with FTLD. Methods: Cross-sectional design using 1092 cases Alzheimer’s disease (AD) 64 FTLD registered by Registry Dementias Girona. Bivariate analyses were performed, binary logistic regressions used detect variables...
This paper examines the extent to which use of Management Accounting and Control Systems influence development organizational capabilities in innovation setting. More specifically, this research exams cultural, interactive diagnostic control systems firms that follow conservative entrepreneurial strategies, test their effects as antecedents creativity could explain some ability an organization convert invention into product innovation. Using survey data collected from 124 medium large...
