Impact of serum calcium levels on the occurrence of sepsis and prognosis in hospitalized patients with concomitant psoriasis: a retrospective study based on the MIMIC-IV database.

Objective: This study aims to investigate the relationship between serum calcium levels during hospitalization and the incidence and prognosis of sepsis in hospitalized patients with psoriasis.

Methods: A retrospective analysis of patients with concomitant psoriasis admitted for the first time was conducted, utilizing the Medical Information Mart for Intensive Care database. Machine learning techniques, along with logistic regression, Cox regression, group-based trajectory modeling (GBTM), and mediation analysis, were employed to assess the influence of serum calcium levels and other clinical indicators on the occurrence of sepsis and all-cause mortality.

Optical Coherence Tomography-Assisted Diagnosis and Optimal Treatment of Three Patients With Woven Coronary Artery.

Woven coronary artery (WCA) is an infrequent coronary artery anomaly characterized by the segmentation of one or more coronary artery portions into multiple small channels by intertwining small blood vessels, which reconverge into a normal lumen in the distal segment. Coronary angiography is not sufficiently accurate for the definitive diagnosis of "braid-like lesions." Optical coherence tomography (OCT) examination provides a clearer understanding of the coronary artery conditions.

The predictive value of the prognostic nutritional index to postoperative prognosis and nursing intervention measures for colorectal cancer.

Objectives: This study discussed and analyzed the predictive value of the prognostic nutritional index (PNI) to postoperative prognosis and nursing intervention measures for colorectal cancer.

Methods: 196 patients with colorectal cancer who underwent radical resection in gastrointestinal surgery were retrospectively analyzed. The patients' data and follow-up results were collected and classified into two groups based on the PNI, i.

There is no association between rs6296 and alcoholism: a meta-analysis.

Previous studies have reported controversial results about the association between rs6296 and alcoholism. Thus, a meta-analysis was performed to further explore this association. A comprehensive search was conducted to identify relevant case-control or cohort studies (up to December 1, 2017).

Objective: Based on the angle of the "pathogenic bacteria-food", to analyze the cause of events in canteen from 2002 to 2016 in China, and to provide scientific basis for prevention and control of food borne diseases.

Methods: Collect and finish the food borne disease outbreaks events in canteen from 2002 to 2016, do the descriptive analysis of the number of events, cases and deaths by the different cause food, pathogenic factors and link, in order to do the multi-dimensional attribution analysis.

Results: From 2002 to 2016, there were 2129 food poisoning events in canteen in China.
