We aimed to investigate the association between plasma anion gap (AG) and in-hospital mortality among patients with acute ischemic stroke (AIS). In total, 1236 AIS were enrolled using Medical Information Mart for Intensive Care Database IV. Primary outcome was mortality. The divided into four groups according AG category. mean age Charlson comorbidity index increased as category increased. fourth most related (hazards ratio (HR), 95% confidence interval (CI): 2.77, 1.60–4.71), even after...
Early identification of impending in-hospital cardiac arrest (IHCA) improves clinical outcomes but remains elusive for practicing clinicians.
<title>Abstract</title> Introduction The COVID-19 pandemic has posed significant challenges to healthcare systems and public health. We wonder whether modified stroke protocol (MSP) could provide timely treatment with comparable efficacy in acute care. Methods Participants were victims of ischemic who underwent endovascular therapy between January 2021 July 2021. Modified claims conduct nasopharyngeal swab nucleic acid amplification test (NAAT) immediately while encountering a patient...
This study was conducted to investigate the clinical characteristics and outcomes of patients with acute ischemic stroke atrial fibrillation (AF) in intensive care units (ICUs).In Medical Information Mart for Intensive Care IV database, 1,662 were identified from 2008 2019. Of patients, 653 had AF. The without AF compared using propensity score matching (PSM). Furthermore, univariate multivariate Cox regression analyzes performed.Of 39.2% prevalence these increased a stepwise manner advanced...
Background/Objective: The aim of study is to assess the efficacy each ventilator weaning method for ventilated patients in intensive care units (ICUs). Methods: A systematic search was conducted using PubMed, Embase, and China National Knowledge Infrastructure identify randomized control studies on regarding extubation associated outcomes (weaning success or failure, proportion requiring re-intubation, mortality) from inception until April 01, 2020. Commonly used ventilation modes involved...
(1) Background: We aimed to evaluate the aspect of thrombocytopenia in patients with acute ischemic stroke (AIS); (2) Methods: Patients AIS were recruited Medical Information Mart for Intensive Care IV database from 2008 2019. The was defined as a platelet blood count less than 150 K/µL. compared patient characteristics and clinical outcomes using propensity score matching (PSM); (3) Results: Thrombocytopenia affected 151 out 1236 (12.2%). older (70.5 ± 12.8 vs. 68.4 14.4; SMD = 0.154) had...
Background Thrombectomy is well‐established management for acute ischemic stroke involving large vessel occlusion. However. the potential efficacy of thrombectomy isolated posterior cerebral artery occlusion remains limited. The study aims to evaluate benefits Methods We searched PubMed, Cochrane, and Embase articles published until September 2023. primary outcome was good functional at 3 months. secondary outcomes included excellent months early neurological improvement. safety were...
The effectiveness and safety of endovascular treatment compared with medical management alone regarding outcomes for patients a large infarct core remain uncertain.
Background This study aimed to investigate the incidence of contrast‐associated acute kidney injury (CA‐AKI) and renal replacement therapy (RRT) after endovascular (EVT) for ischemic stroke. Methods PubMed, Cochrane Library, Web Science were searched identify all relevant studies regarding CA‐AKI RRT in patients with stroke receiving EVT until July 2021. To pool RRT, a random‐effects model double arcsine transformation was used. Subgroup analysis meta‐regression used relationship individual...
