The current pandemic is defined by the transmission of severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2), the virus that can lead to coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19). How is SARS-CoV-2 transmitted? In this review, we use a global lens to...

A closer look at heart failure in patients with concurrent diabetes mellitus using glucose lowering drugs.

Expert review of clinical pharmacology

INTRODUCTION: Type 2 diabetes (T2D) is an independent risk factor for heart failure (HF). With concomitant T2D and HF, recent data suggests an incremental risk of cardiovascular death and hospitalization for HF, as compared to patients with HF without...

Comparison of Outcome Adjudication by Investigators and by a Central End Point Committee in Heart Failure Trials: Experience of the SHIFT Heart Failure Study.

Circulation. Heart failure

Tyl B, Lopez Sendon J, Borer JS, Lopez De Sa E, Lerebours G, Varin C, De Montigny A, Pannaux M, Komajda M.

BACKGROUND: The usefulness of adjudication by central end point committees (CECs) is poorly assessed in heart failure (HF) trials. We aimed to assess its impact on the outcome of the SHIFT trial (Systolic HF Treatment With the If Inhibitor...

The association of self-efficacy and hospitalization rates in people with type-2 diabetes: A prospective cohort study.

Diabetes research and clinical practice

Physical Therapists Know Function: An Opinion on Mobility and Level of Activity During Hospitalization for Adult Inpatients.

Hospital topics

Johnson AM, Kuperstein J, Howell D, Dupont-Versteegden EE.
PMID: 29781780
Hosp Top. 2018 Apr-Jun;96(2):61-68. doi: 10.1080/00185868.2018.1463831. Epub 2018 May 21.

Negative consequences of immobility during hospitalization are widely known and remain undisputed. Evidence of low mobility for general medicine adult inpatients persists. Patients who experience hospital acquired functional decline due to low mobility require costly post-acute care services. The...

Thromboprophylaxis Failure in the Adult Medical Inpatient.

The American journal of the medical sciences

Northup A, Wilcox S.
PMID: 28864367
Am J Med Sci. 2017 Aug;354(2):107-116. doi: 10.1016/j.amjms.2017.03.011. Epub 2017 Mar 06.

Venous thromboembolism (VTE), a leading cause of morbidity and mortality among hospitalized patients, is often due to prophylaxis failure rather than omission, but few studies have identified the risk factors for failure. Risk factors for thromboprophylaxis failure include personal...
