A simple and accurate prognostic tool for Heart Failure (HF) patients is critical to improve follow-up. Different risk scores are accurate but with limited clinical applicability. The current study aims to derive and validate a simple predictive tool for HF prognosis. French outpatients with stable HF of two university hospitals were included in th...

Neurocritical care
Cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) and serum lactate levels were assessed to predict poor neurologic outcome 3 months after return of spontaneous circulation (ROSC). We compared arterio-CSF differences in the lactate (ACDL) levels between two neurologic outcome groups. This retrospective observational study involved out-of-hospital cardiac arrest (OHCA) sur...

To evaluate the effect of frailty assessed by the modified Frailty Index (mFI) on major adverse cardiac and cerebrovascular events (MACCE) in the elderly patients after endovascular aortic aneurysm repair (EVAR). This was a retrospective cohort study of elderly patients who underwent EVAR in a tertiary hospital. The main exposure was frailty status...

This study was performed to investigate the relationship between the aspartate transaminase and/or alanine transaminase ratio (DRR) and long-term mortality of patients diagnosed with sepsis or septic shock. We conducted a retrospective study among adult septic patients who were admitted to the surgical intensive care unit (ICU) of the Chinese Peopl...

Numerous basic studies have shown a relationship between interleukin-6 (IL-6) and the development or severity of myocarditis. However, there has been no study in which the effect of IL-6 levels in patients with myocarditis was evaluated. We enrolled control patients (n = 12) and consecutive patients with acute myocarditis (n = 13), including lympho...

The management of older and multimorbid patients with complex care requires a personalised and comprehensive approach. The main diagnosis is often registered as the cause of hospitalisation, yet poor health-related quality of life (HRQoL) as well as multimorbidity may represent the underlying cause and markedly influence prognosis. To analyse the a...

Parkinson's disease (PD) is more frequent in the elderly and increases the risk of respiratory infections. Previous data on PD and SARS-CoV-2 are scarce, suggesting a poor prognosis in advanced disease and second-line therapies. A retrospective case-control study comparing patients with PD and COVID-19 and patients with PD without COVID-19 was cond...

We evaluated the prognostic potential of the ratio of serum procalcitonin to monocytic HLA-DR for 28-day mortality in sepsis. In this retrospective study, a total of 91 patients with sepsis were enrolled. Clinical and laboratory data detected on admission (D0) and 7 days thereafter (D7) including the Acute Physiology and Chronic Health Evaluation I...
