Abstract
BACKGROUND The role of oral anticoagulation during the COVID-19 pandemic has been debated widely. We studied the clinical outcomes of COVID-19 hospitalizations in patients who were on long-term anticoagulation. RESEARCH DESIGN AND METHODS The Nationwide Inpatient Sample (NIS) database from 2020 was queried to identify COVID-19 patients with and without long-term anticoagulation. Multivariate regression analysis was used to calculate the adjusted odds ratio (aOR) of in-hospital outcomes. RESULTS Of 1,060,925 primary COVID-19 hospitalizations, 102,560 (9.6%) were on long-term anticoagulation. On adjusted analysis, COVID-19 patients on anticoagulation had significantly lower odds of in-hospital mortality (aOR 0.61, 95% CI 0.58-0.64, P < 0.001), acute myocardial infarction (aOR 0.72, 95% CI 0.63-0.83, P < 0.001), stroke (aOR 0.79, 95% CI 0.66-0.95, P < 0.013), ICU admissions, (aOR 0.53, 95% CI 0.49-0.57, P < 0.001) and higher odds of acute pulmonary embolism (aOR 1.47, 95% CI 1.34-1.61, P < 0.001), acute deep vein thrombosis (aOR 1.17, 95% CI 1.05-1.31, P = 0.005) compared to COVID-19 patients who were not on anticoagulation. CONCLUSIONS Compared to COVID-19 patients not on long-term anticoagulation, we observed lower in-hospital mortality, stroke and acute myocardial infarction in COVID-19 patients on long-term anticoagulation. Prospective studies are needed for optimal anticoagulation strategies in hospitalized patients.

Abstract
A simple renal cyst can become infected spontaneously due to various modes like direct cyst penetration during biopsy or surgical exploration, hematogenous spread of infection, and retrograde infection from the urinary tract. Managing such cases becomes challenging due to the risk of rupture of the cyst, causing sequelae of bacteremia and septic shock. Aspiration of cyst along with imaging modality can strengthen the diagnosis. However, nephrectomy coupled with antibacterial administration is an updated therapeutic intervention for an infected simple renal cyst. Our patient presented with a renal cyst at each pole of the left kidney complicated by infection, and after confirming the diagnosis on computed tomography, we performed a right-sided nephrectomy after proper informed consent. The patient responded well to treatment and improved her quality of life.
