Introduction:The prominent decline in U.S. stroke death rates observed for more than 4 decades has slowed recent years.CDC examined trends and patterns among adults aged ≥35 years by age, sex, race/ethnicity, state, census region.Methods: Trends the of as underlying cause during 2000-2015 were analyzed using data from National Vital Statistics System.Joinpoint software was used to identify rates, excess number deaths resulting unfavorable changes estimated.Results: Among years,...
The COVID-19 pandemic has disproportionately affected people with diabetes, who are at increased risk of severe COVID-19.* Increases in the number type 1 diabetes diagnoses (1,2) and frequency severity diabetic ketoacidosis (DKA) time diagnosis (3) have been reported European pediatric populations during pandemic. In adults, might be a long-term consequence SARS-CoV-2 infection (4-7). To evaluate for any new (type 1, 2, or other diabetes) >30 days
Vaccination against SARS-CoV-2, the virus that causes COVID-19, is highly effective at preventing COVID-19-associated hospitalization and death; however, some vaccinated persons might develop COVID-19 with severe outcomes† (1,2). Using data from 465 facilities in a large U.S. health care database, this study assessed frequency of risk factors for developing outcome after completing primary vaccination series (primary vaccination), defined as receipt 2 doses an mRNA vaccine (BNT162b2...
The COVID-19 pandemic has magnified longstanding health care and social inequities, resulting in disproportionately high COVID-19-associated illness death among members of racial ethnic minority groups (1). Equitable use effective medications (2) could reduce disparities these severe outcomes (3). Monoclonal antibody (mAb) therapies against SARS-CoV-2, the virus that causes COVID-19, initially received Emergency Use Authorization (EUA) from Food Drug Administration (FDA) November 2020. mAbs...
Hypertension is an important modifiable risk factor for cardiovascular morbidity and mortality, hypertension in adolescents young adults associated with long-term negative health effects (1,2).* In 2017, the American Academy of Pediatrics (AAP) released a new Clinical Practice Guideline (3), which updated 2004 pediatric guidance† thresholds percentile references calculated from healthy-weight population. To examine trends youth impact guideline on classification status, CDC analyzed data...
This report provides a nationwide comparison of clinical characteristics e-cigarette, or vaping, product use–associated lung injury patients who were rehospitalized died after hospital discharge
CDC, the Food and Drug Administration (FDA), state local health departments, public clinical stakeholders are investigating a nationwide outbreak of e-cigarette, or vaping, product use-associated lung injury (EVALI) (1). As November 13, 2019, 49 states, District Columbia, two U.S. territories (Puerto Rico Virgin Islands) have reported 2,172 EVALI cases to including 42 (1.9%) EVALI-associated deaths. To inform surveillance, during 2019-20 influenza season, case report information supplied by...
CDC, the Food and Drug Administration (FDA), state local health departments, public clinical stakeholders are investigating a nationwide outbreak of e-cigarette, or vaping, product use-associated lung injury (EVALI) (1). CDC has published recommendations for care providers regarding EVALI (2-4). Recently, researchers from Utah New York proposed diagnosis treatment algorithms (5,6). remains exclusion because, at present, no specific test marker exists its diagnosis, evaluation should be...
Context: Electronic health record (EHR) data can potentially make chronic disease surveillance more timely, actionable, and sustainable. Although use of EHR address numerous limitations traditional methods, timely with broad population coverage require scalable systems. This report describes implementation, challenges, lessons learned from the Multi-State EHR-Based Network for Disease Surveillance (MENDS) to help inform how others work develop distributed networks surveillance. Program:...
To date, limited information is available on the characteristics of adolescents with e-cigarette, or vaping, product use-associated lung injury (EVALI).To inform public health and clinical practice by describing differences in demographics, substance use behaviors, EVALI among compared adults.Surveillance data reported to Centers for Disease Control Prevention during 2019 outbreak were used calculate adjusted prevalence ratios (aPRs) 95% CIs test between 360 hospitalized deceased vs 859...
Background and Purpose— International Classification of Diseases, Ninth Tenth Revision, Clinical Modification ( ICD-9-CM ICD-10-CM ) codes are often used for disease surveillance. We examined changes in concordance between ICD-CM clinical diagnoses before after the transition to United States (October 1, 2015), determined if there were systematic variations by patient hospital characteristics. Methods— included Paul Coverdell National Acute Stroke Program discharges from 2014 2017....
Over the past decade, blood pressure and sodium intake declined among children adolescents (ie, youths) in United States. We updated temporal trends determined if secular changes might be partly associated with usual intake. included 12 249 youths aged 8 to 17 years who participated National Health Nutrition Examination Survey from 2003 2016 had dietary data. Logistic regression was used describe association between categorized according 2017 Hypertension Guidelines. The prevalence of...

The clinical benefit of intravenous (IV) alteplase in acute ischemic stroke is time dependent. We assessed the overall temporal changes door-to-needle (DTN) and examine factors associated with DTN ≤60 ≤45 minutes.A total 496 336 admissions were identified Paul Coverdell National Acute Stroke Program from 2008 to 2017. used generalized estimating equations models minutes, calculated adjusted odds ratios 95% CI. Between 2017, percentage patients who received IV including those transferred,...

Chronic conditions are costly and major causes of death disability. Addressing earlier in adulthood can slow disease progression improve well-being across the lifespan. We estimated, by life stage, 10-year trends among US adults prevalence 1 or more chronic conditions, multiple (MCC; ≥2 conditions), 12 selected conditions. analyzed data from 2013-2023 (odd years) Behavioral Risk Factor Surveillance System (N = 2,673,529). estimated MCC, each stage: young (18-34 y), midlife (35-64 older (≥65...

This report reviews how the implementation of new definitions for hypertension in pediatric patients (a major risk factor cardiovascular disease) has resulted its increased prevalence, especially youths with severe obesity. July 13, 2018/67(27);758-762 Hypertension is an important modifiable morbidity and mortality, adolescents young adults associated long-term negative health effects.1Juhola J Magnussen CG Berenson GS et al.Combined effects child adult elevated blood pressure on subclinical...
Objective The purpose of this study was to investigate the association sodium intake with obesity in US children and adolescents. Methods Cross‐sectional data were analyzed for 9,026 adolescents National Health Nutrition Examination Survey (NHANES) 2009‐2016. Usual estimated from 24‐hour dietary recalls using a measurement error model. Logistic regression used assess overweight/obesity, obesity, central (waist height ratio [WtHR] ≥ 0.5; waist circumferences (WC) age‐ sex‐specific 90th...
