The causes, circumstances, and preventability of young sudden cardiac arrest remain uncertain.A prospective state-wide multi-source registry identified all out-of-hospital arrests (OHCAs) in 1-50 year olds Victoria, Australia, from 2019 to 2021. Cases were adjudicated using hospital forensic records, clinic assessments interviews survivors family members. For confirmed causes OHCA, circumstances history collected. National time-use data was used contextualize circumstances. 1319 OHCAs...
Objective Multimorbidity is a growing challenge in low-income and middle-income countries. This study investigates the effects of multimorbidity on annual medical costs out-of-pocket expenditures (OOPEs) along cost distribution. Methods Data from nationally representative China Health Retirement Longitudinal Study (CHARLS 2015), including 10 592 participants aged ≥45 years 15 physical mental chronic diseases, were used for this cross-sectional study. Quantile multivariable regressions...
Abstract Background Multimorbidity (the presence of two or more non-communicable diseases) is a major growing challenge for many low-income and middle-income countries (LMICs). Yet, its effects on health care costs financial burden patients have not been adequately studied. This study investigates the effect multimorbidity across different percentiles healthcare utilisation out-of-pocket expenditure (OOPE). Methods We conducted secondary data analysis 2014/2015 Indonesian Family Life Survey...
Few preference-weighted instruments are available to measure health-related quality of life in young children (2–4 years age). The EQ-5D-Y-3L and EQ-5D-Y-5L were recently modified for this purpose. aim study was test the psychometric properties these adapted versions use with parent proxies aged 2–4 compare their performance original versions. It hypothesised that instrument wording would result improved performance. Survey data obtained from Australian Paediatric Multi-Instrument Comparison...
Objective: Metabolic diseases have been a clinical challenge worldwide and major public health issue. Very few studies from China investigated the impact of metabolic multimorbidity on healthcare outcomes at national level. This study aims to examine association with service utilization, spending, functional mental health. Materials Methods: is nationally representative cross-sectional study, utilizing data Health Retirement Longitudinal Study in 2015, including 11,377 participants aged 45...
To contextualize obesity rates in young sudden cardiac death (SCD) against the age-matched national population, and identify clinical pathologic features WHO class II III obesity.A prospective state-wide out-of-hospital arrest registry included all SCDs Victoria, Australia from 2019-2021. Body mass indices (BMIs) of patients 18-50 years were compared to age-referenced general population. Characteristics SCD with Class (BMI ≥30kg/m2) non-obesity (BMI<30kg/m2) compared. Clinical...

To determine whether young rural Australians have higher rates or different underlying causes of out-of-hospital cardiac arrest (OHCA).A case-control design identified patients experiencing an OHCA, then compared annual OHCA and in versus metropolitan Victoria. were defined as either non-cardiac, with specific aetiologies including coronary disease, cardiomyopathy, unascertained cause arrest, drug toxicity, respiratory event, neurological event other non-cardiac. For OHCAs confirmed...
Abstract Background Administrative coding of out‐of‐hospital cardiac arrest (OHCA) is heterogeneous, with the prevalence noninformative diagnoses uncertain. Aim To characterize and type non‐informative in a young population. Methods Hospital discharge provided to statewide OHCA registry were characterised as either ‘informative’ or ‘noninformative.’ Informative stated an had occurred defined occurring due coronary artery disease, cardiomyopathy, channelopathy, definite noncardiac cause, no...
