Article Abstract
Objectives: We aimed to determine the association between frailty status and outcomes in patients with post-ERCP pancreatitis (PEP).
Methods: Appended data was obtained from the 2016-2017 National Inpatient Sample (NIS) database. We performed a nationwide cohort study utilizing International Classification of Diseases (ICD) diagnostic codes to identify adult patients with PEP. The Hospital Frailty Risk Score (HFRS) was used to classify patients as frail or non-frail. The primary outcome was composite complications related to PEP including all-cause mortality. Secondary outcomes were length of stay and total hospitalization costs.
Results: There were 41,615 patients represented in the data, with 34.6% (14,382) characterized as frail and 65.4% (27,233) as non-frail. 60.7% of frail patients suffered composite complications related to PEP compared to 29.3% of non-frail patients (P<0.001). Frail patients had more cardiovascular, pulmonary, gastrointestinal, renal and endocrine, neurologic, and infectious complications compared to non- frail patients. Frail patients also had higher all-cause mortality rates during inpatient admission (4.6% vs. under 0.1%, P<0.001) and increased length of stay (11.6 d vs. 0.8, P<0.001) as well total hospitalization charges ($140,855 vs. $73,539, P<0.001). On multivariable analysis, positive frailty status was associated with 2.94 times increased odds of having composite complications.
Conclusion: Frailty assessments can be utilized as a predictor of outcomes and serve to guide clinical decision-making when determining prophylactic measures in patients undergoing ERCP who may be at risk for PEP.

Background: Existing longitudinal cohort study data and associated biospecimen libraries provide abundant opportunities to efficiently examine new hypotheses through retrospective specimen testing. Outcome-dependent sampling (ODS) methods offer a powerful alternative to random sampling when testing all available specimens is not feasible or biospecimen preservation is desired. For repeated binary outcomes, a common ODS approach is to extend the case-control framework to the longitudinal setting.

Myocardial injury constitutes a life-threatening complication of sepsis, driven by synergistic oxidative-inflammatory pathology involving dysregulated production of reactive oxygen species (ROS), reactive nitrogen species (RNS), and proinflammatory cytokines. This pathophysiological cascade remarkably elevates morbidity and mortality rates in septic patients, emerging as a key contributor to poor clinical outcomes. Despite its clinical significance, no clinically validated therapeutics currently exist for managing septic cardiomyopathy.

Background: In Canada, the Indigenous population is the youngest and fastest growing, yet ongoing health disparities for Indigenous peoples are widely recognized. There is a concerning lack of research on childhood disabilities and health conditions in Indigenous populations in Canada. For children with disabilities and chronic health conditions, ongoing access to rehabilitation services, such as occupational therapy, physical therapy, speech-language pathology, and audiology, is critical in promoting positive health and developmental outcomes.

Background: Hospital falls represent a persistent and significant threat to safety within health care systems worldwide, impacting both patient well-being and the occupational health of health care staff. While patient falls are a primary concern, addressing fall risks for all individuals within the health care environment remains a key objective. Caregiver visibility and spatial monitoring are recognized as crucial considerations in mitigating fall-related incidents.
