Urinary tract infections (UTIs) in childhood are common and associated with considerable acute morbidity long-term complications. The need for updated data to optimize empiric antibiotic therapy is crucial. We aimed investigate the pathogens causing pediatric community acquired UTIs, their correlation demographic characteristics, trends antimicrobial resistance. This nationwide cross-sectional study included all 53,203 children (<18 years) diagnosed UTI outpatient clinics following...
Abstract Objective Cancer incidence in patients with endogenous Cushing's syndrome (CS) has never been established. Here, we aimed to assess the cancer risk CS as compared individually matched controls. Design A nationwide retrospective cohort study of diagnosed between 2000 and 2023 using database Clalit Health Services Israel. Methods Patients adrenal carcinoma or ectopic were excluded. a 1:5 ratio, controls for age, sex, socioeconomic status, body mass index. The primary outcome was...
Abstract Context Leukocytosis frequently noted in Cushing’s syndrome (CS), along with other blood cell changes caused by direct and indirect cortisol effects. Objective Assess baseline white (WBC) profile CS patients compared to controls WBC pre- post-remission after surgical treatment for CS. Design A comparative nationwide retrospective cohort study. Setting Data from Clalit Health Services database. Patients 297 (mean age 51 ± 16.1 years, 73.0% women) 997 age-, sex-, body mass index-,...

Abstract Objective Endogenous Cushing's syndrome (CS) has been linked with an increased risk of cancer. We aimed to evaluate the association between cancer and disease remission post-surgery in adrenal CS (CD). Design A nationwide retrospective matched-cohort study patients diagnosed 2000-2023 Israel, using Clalit Health Services’ database. Methods Patients were matched 1:5 controls by age, sex, socioeconomic status, BMI. Remission status was assessed within two years after diagnosis CS. The...
Abstract Objective To investigate the impact of Sodium-glucose cotransporter 2 (SGLT2) inhibitors on incidence, complications, and therapeutic demands anemia in patients with diabetes utilizing real-world data, compared to treatment dipeptidyl peptidase 4 (DPP4) inhibitors. Patients Methods In this retrospective cohort study, dataset was sourced from data repositories Clalit Health Services. Since January 1, 2016 through December 31, 2021 we identified type who received SGLT2 them a matched...
Patients with endogenous Cushing's syndrome (CS) have elevated mortality, particularly during active disease. A recent meta-analysis reported reduced mortality rates after 2000 in adrenal CS and Cushing disease (CD), though many studies lacked population-matched controls. Nationwide retrospective study (2000-2023) Israel using the Clalit Health Services database to assess all-cause patients matched 1:5 controls by age, sex, socioeconomic-status, BMI. Primary outcome was mortality. Secondary...
Abstract Burden of COVID-19 on Hospitals across the globe is enormous and has clinical economic implications. In this retrospective study including consecutive adult patients with confirmed SARS-CoV-2 who were admitted between 3/2020 30/9/20, we aimed to identify post-discharge outcomes risk factors for re-admission among hospitalized patients. Mortality re-admissions documented a median post discharge follow up 59 days (interquartile range 28,161). Univariate multivariate analyses...
Background Venous thromboembolism (VTE) is considered a preventable cause of mortality. The evidence for the benefit VTE prophylaxis in acute medical patients non-conclusive. Meta-analysis RCTs failed to demonstrate reduction all-cause mortality, while showing higher risk bleeding. Israeli Ministry Health has instructed assess all using Padua Prediction Score, without mandating prophylaxis. Aim To evaluate effect filling score on clinical outcomes and rates. Methods Retrospective Study was...

We aim to assess the risk for glaucoma among CS compared controls and determine age of disease onset. Methods A nationwide retrospective matched‐cohort study diagnosed between 2000 2023. Patients were matched a 1:5 ratio, control group individually age, sex, socioeconomic status body mass index. Main outcomes Results total 609 [396 women (65%); mean 48.1 ± 17 years] included...
