Analysis of the impact of various risk factors on short-term and long-term outcomes in patients with COVID-19 on maintenance hemodialysis

Patients receiving renal replacement therapy (RRT) in the form of maintenance hemodialysis (MHD) belong to a group of particularly high risk of infection and the course of COVID-19. The new coronavirus infection also has a great impact on long-term outcomes.Materials and methods: A retrospective observational study included 510 patients on MHD, hospitalized from April 1, 2020 to April 01, 2021. The outcome of hospitalization was chosen as the primary endpoint of the study: discharge or 28day mortality. Death within 6 months after discharge and the development of complications related to COVID-19 during this period were considered as secondary endpoints. Data collection was carried out by analyzing electronic and archival medical records. Quantitative variables: age, duration of hospitalization, days in the intensive care unit, laboratory blood parameters: the level of D-Dimer, Glucose, Interleukin-6, Procalcitonin, Lymphocytes and Platelets, CRP, CPK, CPK-MB, LDH, Fibrinogen, Ferritin. Qualitative indicators: gender, ventilator, ARDS, the presence of diabetes, the presence of obesity, the presence of complications: cardiovascular, gastrointestinal, septic, macrothrombotic, stage of pneumonia. To identify statistically significant predictors of the risk of an event, the odds ratio (OR) method was used.Results: average age 57.8±14 years, men – 59.5%, average bed day 17.6±10.6 days. In concomitant diseases, diabetes mellitus was indicated in 24% of patients, obesity was registered in 4.3% of patients. Hospital mortality (28-day) in the total cohort of follow-up was 16.05%, in total with out-ofhospital mortality of 22%. Mortality in intensive care reached 62.7%, on ventilator more than 86%, with ARDS 94.3%. No statistical significance was revealed by gender and the presence of diabetes mellitus (DM) in concomitant diseases. When comparing short-term outcomes, the age groups over 65 differed statistically. The following laboratory blood parameters showed a significant difference (P<0.001): D-Dimer, Glucose, IL-6 lymphocytes, Leukocytes, Neutrophils, Platelets, LDH, Ferritin. The following odds ratios (OR) were obtained: ARDS (OR 143.78; 95% CI 33.4-616.2; p=0.0001), on ventilator (OR 57.96; 95% CI 23.1-144.5; p=0.0001), the presence of septic complications (OR 26.4; 95% CI 13.8-50; p=0.0001), the course of the disease is defined as severe (OR 25; 95% CI 12.9-48.2; p=0.0001), the course of the disease is defined as complicated (OR 11.6; 95% CI 6.8-19.7; p=0.0001), the presence of gastrointestinal complications (OR 6.5; 95% CI 2.28-18.4; p=0.0007), the presence of obesity (OR 2.57; 95% CI 1.0-6.5; p=0.039). Mortality of patients receiving two main treatment regimens T-1 and T-2 did not differ (15.8% vs 15.7%). Significant differences (p=0.0001) appeared when compared with the T-0 and T-4 schemes, in which mortality was recorded at 8.8% and 85.7%, respectively. When comparing long-term outcomes, the analysis did not reveal statistical significance by gender. The statistical difference was noted by age. Among laboratory indicators, the PCT level was higher in survivors with complications. A significant difference among all survivors and deceased (P<0.001) was shown by: D-Dimer, blood glucose level, IL-6, CRP. The highest OR was calculated for the following indicators: the presence of gastrointestinal complications (OR 7.7; 95% CI 1.0-57.7; p=0.03), the initial LDH blood level of 622 units /l (OR 4.7; 95% CI 1.63-13.63; p=0.0086), the course of the disease defined as complicated (OR 4.05; 95% 1.97-8.33; p=0.003), the course of the disease is defined as severe (OR 2.4; 95% CI 1.17-5.0; p=0.03).Conclusions: gastrointestinal complications had the greatest impact on unfavorable short-term and long-term outcomes in patients on programmed hemodialysis. In relation to such laboratory markers as Ferritin, CRH, LDH, threshold values of a significant increase in the chances characteristic of dialysis patients were obtained. During the first year of the epidemic, therapy remained largely supportive and aimed at preventing complications, the main isolated treatment regimens showed no significant differences in the impact on the outcomes of COVID-19.

The SMILe integrated care model in allogeneic SteM cell TransplantatIon faciLitated by eHealth: a protocol for a hybrid effectiveness-implementation randomised controlled trial

BackgroundWhile effectiveness outcomes of eHealth-facilitated integrated care models (eICMs) in transplant and oncological populations are promising, implementing and sustaining them in real-world settings remain challenging. Allogeneic stem cell transplant (alloSCT) patients could benefit from an eICM to enhance health outcomes. To combat health deterioration, integrating chronic illness management, including continuous symptom and health behaviour monitoring, can shorten reaction times. We will test the 1st-year post-alloSCT effectiveness and evaluate bundled implementation strategies to support the implementation of a newly developed and adapted eICM in allogeneic stem cell transplantation facilitated by eHealth (SMILe–ICM).SMILe-ICM has been designed by combining implementation, behavioural, and computer science methods. Adaptions were guided by FRAME and FRAME-IS. It consists of four modules: 1) monitoring & follow-up; 2) infection prevention; 3) physical activity; and 4) medication adherence, delivered via eHealth and a care coordinator (an Advanced Practice Nurse). The implementation was supported by contextually adapted implementation strategies (e.g., creating new clinical teams, informing local opinion leaders).MethodsUsing a hybrid effectiveness-implementation randomised controlled trial, we will include a consecutive sample of 80 adult alloSCT patients who were transplanted and followed by University Hospital Basel (Switzerland). Inclusion criteria are basic German proficiency; elementary computer literacy; internet access; and written informed consent. Patients will be excluded if their condition prevents the use of technology, or if they are followed up only at external centres. Patient-level (1:1) stratified randomisation into a usual care group and a SMILe-ICM group will take place 10 days pre-transplantation. To gauge the SMILe–ICM’s effectiveness primary outcome (re-hospitalisation rate), secondary outcomes (healthcare utilization costs; length of inpatient re-hospitalizations, medication adherence; treatment and self-management burden; HRQoL; Graft-versus-Host Disease rate; survival; overall survival rate) and implementation outcomes (acceptability, appropriateness, feasibility, fidelity), we will use multi-method, multi-informant assessment (via questionnaires, interviews, electronic health record data, cost capture methods).DiscussionThe SMILe–ICM has major innovative potential for reengineering alloSCT follow-up care, particularly regarding short- and medium-term outcomes. Our dual focus on implementation and effectiveness will both inform optimization of the SMILe-ICM and provide insights regarding implementation strategies and pathway, understudied in eHealth-facilitated ICMs in chronically ill populations.Trial registrationClinicalTrials.gov.

The impact of health literacy levels on women’s fear of contracting Covid-19 and their attitudes toward holistic complementary and alternative medicine: Mediation analysis results

Researchers aim to examine mediating variable role of health literacy in the relationship between fear of contracting Covid-19 in women and use of holistic complementary alternative medicine. The study was conducted as descriptive cross-sectional. The researchers collected study data by conducting an online questionnaire from 285 women between April 01 and June 30, 2021. In our study, a significant relationship was found between education level and health literacy, having a chronic illness, not being able to find a permanent job and fear of Covid-19 (p < 0.05). Positive correlation exists between fear of contracting Covid-19 and Holistic Complementary and Alternative Medicine Practice (correlation between HCAM Practice β=.21). When health literacy variable is included, the level of relationship decreases (β=.18). The researchers determined that as the level of health literacy increased, the women resorted to HCAM practices less despite their fear of contracting Covid-19.

T. builds on earlier work within queer theory1 and arts-based research2 that interrogates non-disclosure and non-transparency as strategies to meet the violence of truth production or what Michel Foucault terms governmentality and the panopticon. I was initially drawn to T.’s work, because like me, she utilizes Édouard Glissant’s postcolonial and anti-imperial theory of opacity to re-read and go beyond the white/Western critique that forms the basis of today’s queer theory.3 I was curious how T. uses Glissant’s opacity to account for queer lives outside of the global Northwest, and how she analyzes the desire to evade the violence and oppression involved in processes of becoming visible....

While these laws appeared race-neutral, observers argued that the goal of these laws was to reduce turnout among voters of color, who are more likely to cast their ballot for Democratic candidates. Optimally, laws that intentionally discriminate against populations based on race would fall in face of legal challenges. However, what if members of the public cast votes with racial animus against certain groups? Should there be a remedy to address such behavior and, if so, what should that remedy be? Also, should elected officials who use appeals that denigrate racial groups be held to similar standards as employers who engage in discriminatory behavior toward their employees?

J Pediatr. 2022;240:102-109.e3; doi: https://doi.org/10.1016/j.jpeds.2021.08.076Google Scholar Investigators from multiple institutions in Canada conducted a cohort study to compare subsequent growth and eating behaviors in children begun on infant cereal at 4 or 6 months of age. Study participants were healthy children, 0-10 years old, seen at 10 primary care sites and enrolled between 2008 and 2019. Information collected on study participants included demographics, birth weight, gestational age, type of infant feeding (breast/bottle/both), cow’s milk intake, sugar-sweetened beverage intake, and maternal BMI. Parents were asked at what month their child began infant cereal; only those who were begun on infant cereal between 4 and 6 months were included in the primary analyses. Anthropometric measurements were obtained on study children to obtain BMI which were converted to z-scores; those with zBMI >2 were categorized as obese. Parents of children 18 months to 5 years old completed a validated questionnaire (NutriSTEP) assessing their child’s nutritional intake and eating behaviors. The overall scores and sub-scores on each of the 2 components were obtained, with higher scores indicative of more nutritional risk. The primary study outcome was zBMI at 1, 5, and 10 years of age. Secondary outcomes included obese status and nutritional risk. Regression analyses were used to compare these outcomes among children started on infant cereal at 4 or 6 months. Potential confounders were included in the models. A total of 8,943 children were enrolled in the study. The mean age at initial study visit was 2.1 years, and average length of follow-up was 4.4 years. Among the participants, 1,558 began infant cereal at 4 months, 1,796 at 5 months, and 3,713 at 6 months of age. Rates of breastfeeding were higher in those who started cereal at 6 months than at 4 months (65.8% and 46.8%, respectively); otherwise, baseline characteristics were similar in the 2 groups. Compared to those started at 6 months, introduction of cereal at 4 months was associated with significantly higher zBMI at 1 and 10 years of age (0.06; 95% CI, 0.01, 0.12 and 0.17; 95% CI, 0.06, 0.28, respectively), with no significant difference at 5 years. Children who began infant cereal at 4 months were significantly more likely to be obese at 10 years of age than those started at 6 months (OR, 1.82; 95% CI, 1.18, 2.80). There were no significant differences between groups in overall NutriSTEP scores or dietary intake sub-scores, but eating behavior sub-scores were significantly higher in those who started cereal at 4 months compared to those started at 6 months, suggesting greater nutritional risk. The authors conclude that initiation of infant cereal at 4 vs 6 months of age was associated with greater zBMI and increased risk of obesity.

Scholars who study Black politics approach the subject from many angles. Many focus on political behavior. Others focus on policies that affect Black communities. Still others consider the cultural significance of full Black political participation. The three original articles in this issue reflect that breadth of inquiry. The first article, by Andrea Benjamin and Sydney Carr, looks at voting behavior across racial groups. Their key question is whether racial coalitions look similar for different types of Democratic congressional candidates. In other words, do white and nonwhite incumbents receive the same level of support from voters of different races? What about white and nonwhite challengers? Do Black, white, and Latinx voters support them at the same rates? They find that Black voters comprise the base of minority incumbents’ re-election coalitions. For scholars interested in the...

Betweener Autoethnographies is the authors’ second contribution to this series, and it advances their 2009 contribution, Betweener Talk: Decolonizing Knowledge Production, Pedagogy, and Praxis.1 Diversi and Moreira’s Betweener Talk was a co-constructed autoethnographic narrative that critically investigated colonialism and replication of hegemonic thinking in United States scholarship. Betweener Autoethnographies further develops their work as activist research in which Diversi and Moreira explore radical pedagogies that imagine transformation to more inclusive and socially just global futures. In Betweener Autoethnographies, Diversi and Moreira position their teacher and researcher work, their continued experiences of collaboration as immigrants working in United States, and their very friendship as acts of resistance to social divisions that manifest throughout the world. The Qualitative Inquiry and Social Justice series is edited by Norman Denzin... You do not currently have access to this content.

However, Hennefeld’s main critique, as far as I can decipher it, is that I am drawing a distinction between slapstick and crisis slapstick that does not exist because slapstick has always had a power for “destabilizing the known world, especially during moments of intense...

The Moravians’ rapid rise, communal institutions, controversial devotional and sexual practices, and sudden financial crisis during the mid-eighteenth century have been explored in important recent studies by Aaron Spencer Fogleman, Katherine Carté Engel, and Paul Peucker, among others.1 Now Sarah Justina Eyerly offers a sweeping new interpretation of their rich music culture and distinctive sound environments in Moravian Soundscapes: A Sonic History of the Moravian Missions in Early Pennsylvania. Founded by Nikolaus Ludwig, Count von Zinzendorf of Saxony (1700–1760), the Moravians, or Herrnhut Community of Brothers (Herrnhuter Brüdergemeine), brought together a group of Hussite exiles from Bohemia with followers of the count’s own vision of Lutheran Pietism. In 1722, Zinzendorf welcomed the remnant of the Unity of the Brethren (Unitas Fratrum), Jan Hus’s fifteenth-century religious reform movement, to Herrnhut, a town on his...
