Fentanyl-xylazine overdose deaths in the USA, 2018-2023.

BACKGROUND: Xylazine, a veterinary sedative and analgesic, has emerged as a novel adulterant in the US illicit drug supply, frequently co-occurring with fentanyl. This study examines trends in fentanyl-xylazine overdose death rates from 2018 to 2023. METHODS: This serial cross-sectional study examined death certificates from the CDC WONDER database to identify International Classification of Diseases, 10th Revision codes for overdose deaths likely coinvolving fentanyl (T40.4) and xylazine (T42.7 or T46.5).

[Aspects of the surgical treatment in plurivisceral echinococcosis--case report].

Hydatid disease remains endemic in many parts of the world, most notably the Mediterranean region, Australia, New Zealand, the Middle East, and South America. Plurivisceral echinococcosis is defined as the concomitant or successive presence of hydatidosis in more than one internal organ. It has been noticed that the number of cases with multi-organ localizations and multiple cysts has increased in the last years. As the surgery of plurivisceral echinococcosis remains one of the challenges for the medical world, in this article we present our experience during 2000-2007 with this disease, follo

Increasing incidence of necrotizing fasciitis in New Zealand: a nationwide study over the period 1990 to 2006.

OBJECTIVES: Because of concerns following necrotizing fasciitis (NF) reports in the media, we aimed to describe the incidence, mortality, case fatality and distribution of NF in New Zealand (NZ). METHODS: By using International Classification of Disease codes to identify NF cases we analyzed the national hospital discharge and mortality data and reviewed 299 charts from 8 hospitals. The sensitivity and positive predictive value (PPV) of the hospital discharge data were calculated by comparing with the mortality dataset and chart review finding respectively. RESULTS: Between 1990 and 2006 the

Chemotherapy in Esthesioneuroblastoma/Olfactory Neuroblastoma: An Analysis of the Surveillance Epidemiology and End Results (SEER) 1973-2015 Database.

OBJECTIVE: Chemotherapy has been proposed as an adjunct to primary local therapy in esthesioneuroblastoma (ENB)/olfactory neuroblastoma (ON), but its role has not been precisely defined. Here, we evaluated its role in ENB treatment. MATERIALS AND METHODS: The Surveillance Epidemiology and End Results (SEER) database was queried for ENB/ON (International Classification of Diseases-3 9522). Cases met criteria for inclusion if they were unique, had a primary location in the nasal cavity, and had adequate information for Kadish staging derivation. Univariable and multivariable Cox analyses assess…

ECG-based deep learning for chronic kidney disease detection and cardiovascular risk prediction.

BACKGROUND: Chronic kidney disease (CKD) is a global health burden with low awareness among both patients and healthcare providers. Deep learning models (DLMs) have shown promise in interpreting electrocardiograms (ECGs) for various disease and may offer new opportunities for early CKD detection. METHODS: We enrolled 66,587 outpatients with estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) data from January 2010 to October 2020. A total of 72,618 ECGs from 49,632 patients were used to develop DLMs. Internal validation was performed on 16,955 nonoverlapping patients, and external validation involved

Factors Associated With Diagnostic Delay of Axial Spondyloarthritis in Colombian Patients.

BACKGROUND/OBJECTIVE: The diagnostic delay of axial spondyloarthritis (axSpA) is globally reported to be between 3 and 11 years. Early diagnosis and treatment have long-term benefits for patients and the health care system. Several international studies have evaluated some factors associated with diagnostic delay, but there are no known studies in the Colombian population. This study assesses the factors associated with diagnostic delay of axSpA in a rheumatology center in Bogota, Colombia. METHODS: This monocentric analytical cross-sectional study was done in a specialized rheumatology cente

Impact of the International Prognostic Scoring System cytogenetic risk groups on the outcome of patients with primary myelodysplastic syndromes undergoing allogeneic stem cell transplantation from human leukocyte antigen-identical siblings: a retrospective analysis of the European Society for Blood and Marrow Transplantation-Chronic Malignancies Working Party.

Acquired chromosomal abnormalities are important prognostic factors in patients with myelodysplastic syndromes treated with supportive care and with disease-modifying therapeutic interventions, including allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation. To assess the prognostic impact of cytogenetic characteristics after hematopoietic stem cell transplantation accurately, we investigated a homogeneous group of 523 patients with primary myelodysplastic syndromes who have received stem cells from human leukocyte antigen-identical siblings. Overall survival at five years from transplantation in
