The impact of comorbidity on the diagnosis delay, treatment options and prognosis for advanced oral cancer: A retrospective result of the POROMS database. J Craniomaxillofac Surg 2024; 52:260-268. [PMID: 38182475 DOI: 10.1016/j.jcms.2023.12.011] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/04/2023] [Revised: 07/30/2023] [Accepted: 12/30/2023] [Indexed: 01/07/2024] Open
Abstract
This study aimed to reveal the underlying mechanisms linking advanced oral squamous cell carcinoma (OSCC) with its comorbidities. Data extracted from the POROMS database included 448 advanced OSCC patients in stage III or IV (AJCC 8th) with primary tumors between August 2015 and August 2021. Time to diagnosis delay increased from 4.5, 5.3-6.5 months when the Adult Comorbidity Evaluation-27 (ACE-27) worsened from none, mild (RR: 1.155, 1.043-1.279; P = 0.006) to moderate-severe (RR: 1.431, 1.251-1.636; P < 0.001). With the number of comorbidities increased from 0, 1-2 (RR: 1.188, 1.078-1.310; P = 0.001) to 3 (RR: 1.563, 1.296-1.885; P < 0.001), the time to diagnosis delay increased from 4.5, 5.4-7.1 months. As the level and number of comorbidities increased, the likelihood of treatment completion gradually declined, especially in those older than 65 years (P = 0.003). The presence of comorbidity was an independent prognostic factor for disease-free survival (HR: 1.431, 1.022-2.005; P = 0.037). Comorbidities may lead to poorer prognosis by directly causing delays in diagnosis, limiting treatment options, and increasing the risk of death in advanced OSCC patients.

Higher Charlson Comorbidity Index Increases 90-Day Readmission Rate with Poorer Functional Outcomes in Surgically Treated Hip Fracture Patients. Geriatr Orthop Surg Rehabil 2021; 12:21514593211036252. [PMID: 34422439 PMCID: PMC8371729 DOI: 10.1177/21514593211036252] [Citation(s) in RCA: 7] [Impact Index Per Article: 2.3] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 07/04/2021] [Revised: 07/04/2021] [Accepted: 12/07/2021] [Indexed: 11/15/2022] Open
Abstract
Introduction The associated mortality and morbidity in hip fracture patients pose a major
healthcare burden for ageing populations worldwide. We aim to analyse how an
individual’s comorbidity profile based on age-adjusted Charlson Comorbidity
Index (CCI) may impact on functional outcomes and 90-day readmission rates
after hip fracture surgery. Materials and Methods Surgically treated hip fracture patients between 2013 and 2016 were followed
up for 1-year and assessed using Parker Mobility Score (PMS), EuroQol-5D
(EQ-5D) and Physical and Mental Component Scores (PCS and MCS, respectively)
of Short Form-36 (SF-36). Statistical analysis was done by categorising 444
patients into three groups based on their CCI: (1) CCI 0–3, (2) CCI 4–5 and
(3) CCI ≥ 6. Results PMS, EQ-5D and SF-36 PCS were significantly different amongst the CCI groups
pre-operatively and post-operatively at 3, 6 and 12 months (all
P < 0.05), with CCI ≥ 6 predicting for poorer
outcomes. In terms of 90-day readmission rates, patients who have been
readmitted have poorer outcome scores. Multivariate analysis showed that
high CCI scores and 90-day readmission rate both remained independent
predictors of worse outcomes for SF-36 PCS, PMS and EQ-5D. Discussion CCI scores ≥6 predict for higher 90-day readmission rates, poorer quality of
life and show poor potential for functional recovery 1-year post-operation
in hip fracture patients. 90-day readmission rates are also independently
associated with poorer functional outcomes. Peri-operatively, surgical teams
should liaise with medical specialists to optimise patients’ comorbidities
and ensure their comorbidities remain well managed beyond hospital discharge
to reduce readmission rates. With earlier identification of patient groups
at risk of poorer functional outcomes, more planning can be directed towards
appropriate management and subsequent rehabilitation. Conclusion Further research should focus on development of a stratified, peri-operative
multidisciplinary, hip-fracture care pathway treatment regime based on CCI
scores to determine its effectiveness in improving functional outcomes.

Abstract
PURPOSE OF REVIEW Hip fractures of the elderly population are a common trauma and numbers are increasing due to ageing societies. Although this is an ordinary low energy impact injury and surgical repair techniques show good results, the perioperative course is characterized by an unparalleled disproportionate perioperative morbidity and mortality. RECENT FINDINGS Most studies focus on outcome-related data. Little is known on how to prevent and treat adverse sequelae, ranging from mild physical challenges to neurobiological disorders and death. SUMMARY Although the contribution of the anaesthetic technique per se seems to be small, the role of the anaesthesiologist as a perioperative physician is undisputed. From focusing on comorbidities and initiating preoperative optimization to intraoperative and postoperative care, there is a huge area to be covered by our faculty to ensure a reasonable outcome defined as quality of postoperative life rather than merely in terms of a successful surgical repair. Protocol-driven perioperative approaches should be employed focusing on pre, intraoperative and postoperative optimization of the patient to facilitate early repair of the fracture that may then translate into better outcomes and hence alleviate the individual patient's burden as well as the socioeconomic load for society.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Hip fracture disrupts general health and is one of the most common physical injuries in the elderly. Depression is the most common mood disorder in older people and one of the main complications of hip fractures. AIM AND METHODS We conducted a meta-analysis to estimate the prevalence of depression in older people with hip fractures. Relevant literature published until July 2019 was obtained and screened according to established inclusion criteria. Two researchers independently carried out quality assessment and data extraction before the meta-analysis. We calculated proportions with 95% confidence intervals (CI). To investigate the sources of heterogeneity, we performed subgroup analyses based on study design, follow-up duration, type of fracture, and gender. RESULTS Twenty-seven studies with a combined sample size of 11958 were included. The overall prevalence of depression in older people with hip fracture was 23% (95% CI: 0.18 to 0.29). The lowest and highest prevalence of depression was in Asia (0.19) and America (0.27) respectively. CONCLUSION In this systematic review and meta-analysis the estimated prevalence of depression among older hip fracture patients was 23%. Further research is needed to identify strategies for preventing and treating mood disorders in this population.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Hip fracture surgery is associated with high in-hospital and 30-day mortality rates and serious adverse patient outcomes. Evidence from randomised controlled trials regarding effectiveness of spinal versus general anaesthesia on patient-centred outcomes after hip fracture surgery is sparse. METHODS AND ANALYSIS The iHOPE study is a pragmatic national, multicentre, randomised controlled, open-label clinical trial with a two-arm parallel group design. In total, 1032 patients with hip fracture (>65 years) will be randomised in an intended 1:1 allocation ratio to receive spinal anaesthesia (n=516) or general anaesthesia (n=516). Outcome assessment will occur in a blinded manner after hospital discharge and inhospital. The primary endpoint will be assessed by telephone interview and comprises the time to the first occurring event of the binary composite outcome of all-cause mortality or new-onset serious cardiac and pulmonary complications within 30 postoperative days. In-hospital secondary endpoints, assessed via in-person interviews and medical record review, include mortality, perioperative adverse events, delirium, satisfaction, walking independently, length of hospital stay and discharge destination. Telephone interviews will be performed for long-term endpoints (all-cause mortality, independence in walking, chronic pain, ability to return home cognitive function and overall health and disability) at postoperative day 30±3, 180±45 and 365±60. ETHICS AND DISSEMINATION: iHOPE has been approved by the leading Ethics Committee of the Medical Faculty of the RWTH Aachen University on 14 March 2018 (EK 022/18). Approval from all other involved local Ethical Committees was subsequently requested and obtained. Study started in April 2018 with a total recruitment period of 24 months. iHOPE will be disseminated via presentations at national and international scientific meetings or conferences and publication in peer-reviewed international scientific journals. TRIAL REGISTRATION NUMBER DRKS00013644; Pre-results.

Lai SW, Lin CL, Liao KF. Use of Oral Corticosteroids and Risk of Hip Fracture in the Elderly in a Case-Control Study. Front Pharmacol 2017; 8:625. [PMID: 28955230 PMCID: PMC5600992 DOI: 10.3389/fphar.2017.00625] [Citation(s) in RCA: 17] [Impact Index Per Article: 2.4] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 07/05/2017] [Accepted: 08/25/2017] [Indexed: 12/15/2022] Open
Abstract
Aim: Little is known regarding the relationship between use of oral corticosteroids and hip fracture in the elderly in Taiwan. The aim of the study was to examine this issue. Methods: A retrospective population-based case-control study using the database of the Taiwan National Health Insurance Program (2000–2013) was conducted. We identified 4538 individuals aged ≥ 65 years with newly diagnosed hip fracture as the cases. We randomly selected 4538 individuals without hip fracture as the control subjects. The cases and the control subjects were matched with sex, age, comorbidities, and the year of index date. Individuals who never had a prescription for oral corticosteroids were defined as never use. Individuals who ever had at least one prescription for oral corticosteroids were defined as ever use. The odds ratio (OR) and 95% confidence interval (CI) of hip fracture associated with oral corticosteroids use was estimated by a multivariable unconditional logistic regression analysis. Results: After adjustments for potential confounding factors, the multivariable logistic regression model showed that the adjusted OR of hip fracture was 1.17 for individuals with ever use of oral corticosteroids (95%CI 1.08, 1.28), compared to those with never use of oral corticosteroids. An sub-analysis showed that for every 1-mg increase in cumulative dose of oral corticosteroids, the adjusted OR of hip fracture was 1.01 (95% CI 1.01, 1.02). The adjusted ORs were 1.31 (95% CI 1.17, 1.47) for cumulative exposure to oral corticosteroids ≥ 3 months and 1.09 (95% CI 0.98, 1.20) for cumulative exposure < 3 months. Conclusion: We conclude that oral corticosteroids use is associated with a trivial but statistically significant increase in risk of hip fracture in Taiwan. Additionally, the results suggest that there are dose-response and duration-response effects of oral corticosteroids on the risk of hip fracture. The results confirm our understanding of oral corticosteroid-associated hip fracture in the elderly.
