Abstract
Dengue is a global epidemic causing over 100 million cases annually. The clinical symptoms range from mild fever to severe hemorrhage and shock, including some fatalities. The current paradigm is that these severe dengue cases occur mostly during secondary infections due to antibody-dependent enhancement after infection with a different dengue virus serotype. India has the highest dengue burden worldwide, but little is known about disease severity and its association with primary and secondary dengue infections. To address this issue, we examined 619 children with febrile dengue-confirmed infection from three hospitals in different regions of India. We classified primary and secondary infections based on IgM:IgG ratios using a dengue-specific enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay according to the World Health Organization guidelines. We found that primary dengue infections accounted for more than half of total clinical cases (344 of 619), severe dengue cases (112 of 202) and fatalities (5 of 7). Consistent with the classification based on binding antibody data, dengue neutralizing antibody titers were also significantly lower in primary infections compared to secondary infections (P ≤ 0.0001). Our findings question the currently widely held belief that severe dengue is associated predominantly with secondary infections and emphasizes the importance of developing vaccines or treatments to protect dengue-naive populations.

Abstract
Historically, fungi were mainly identified as plant and insect pathogens since they grow at 28°C. At the same time, bacteria are known to be the most common human pathogens as they are compatible with the host body temperature of 37°C. Because of immunocompromised hosts, cancer therapy, and malnutrition, fungi are rapidly gaining attention as human pathogens. Over 150 million people have severe fungal infections, which lead to approximately more than one million deaths per year. Moreover, diseases like cancer involving long-term therapy and prophylactic use of antifungal drugs in high-risk patients have increased the emergence of drug-resistant fungi, including highly virulent strains such as Candida auris. This clinical spectrum of fungal diseases ranges from superficial mucocutaneous lesions to more severe and life-threatening infections. This review article summarizes the effect of hospital environments, especially during the COVID-19 pandemic, on fungal infections and emerging pathogens. The review also provides insights into the various antifungal drugs and their existing challenges, thereby driving the need to search for novel antifungal agents.

Abstract
Patients mimicking appendicitis symptoms in a rural setting or those post-appendectomy, indicating cecal volvulus, should always be considered. Swift action can prevent catastrophic consequences. Abstract We present a case of a 14-year-old female who initially underwent open appendectomy for acute appendicitis and subsequently experienced symptoms of abdominal distention, vomiting, and fever. Her condition deteriorated following the appendectomy, despite a prior appendectomy for similar symptoms at a different facility. A computed tomography (CT) scan identified cecal volvulus as the underlying issue. This led to the performance of a laparotomy, cecopexy, and decompressive ileostomy. After six weeks, ileostomy closure was successfully carried out, and the patient currently enjoys good health. This case highlights the significance of considering uncommon factors as potential contributors to postoperative complications in young patients.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION The multiorgan impact of moderate to severe coronavirus infections in the post-acute phase is still poorly understood. We aimed to evaluate the excess burden of multiorgan abnormalities after hospitalisation with COVID-19, evaluate their determinants, and explore associations with patient-related outcome measures. METHODS In a prospective, UK-wide, multicentre MRI follow-up study (C-MORE), adults (aged ≥18 years) discharged from hospital following COVID-19 who were included in Tier 2 of the Post-hospitalisation COVID-19 study (PHOSP-COVID) and contemporary controls with no evidence of previous COVID-19 (SARS-CoV-2 nucleocapsid antibody negative) underwent multiorgan MRI (lungs, heart, brain, liver, and kidneys) with quantitative and qualitative assessment of images and clinical adjudication when relevant. Individuals with end-stage renal failure or contraindications to MRI were excluded. Participants also underwent detailed recording of symptoms, and physiological and biochemical tests. The primary outcome was the excess burden of multiorgan abnormalities (two or more organs) relative to controls, with further adjustments for potential confounders. The C-MORE study is ongoing and is registered with ClinicalTrials.gov, NCT04510025. FINDINGS Of 2710 participants in Tier 2 of PHOSP-COVID, 531 were recruited across 13 UK-wide C-MORE sites. After exclusions, 259 C-MORE patients (mean age 57 years [SD 12]; 158 [61%] male and 101 [39%] female) who were discharged from hospital with PCR-confirmed or clinically diagnosed COVID-19 between March 1, 2020, and Nov 1, 2021, and 52 non-COVID-19 controls from the community (mean age 49 years [SD 14]; 30 [58%] male and 22 [42%] female) were included in the analysis. Patients were assessed at a median of 5·0 months (IQR 4·2-6·3) after hospital discharge. Compared with non-COVID-19 controls, patients were older, living with more obesity, and had more comorbidities. Multiorgan abnormalities on MRI were more frequent in patients than in controls (157 [61%] of 259 vs 14 [27%] of 52; p<0·0001) and independently associated with COVID-19 status (odds ratio [OR] 2·9 [95% CI 1·5-5·8]; padjusted=0·0023) after adjusting for relevant confounders. Compared with controls, patients were more likely to have MRI evidence of lung abnormalities (p=0·0001; parenchymal abnormalities), brain abnormalities (p<0·0001; more white matter hyperintensities and regional brain volume reduction), and kidney abnormalities (p=0·014; lower medullary T1 and loss of corticomedullary differentiation), whereas cardiac and liver MRI abnormalities were similar between patients and controls. Patients with multiorgan abnormalities were older (difference in mean age 7 years [95% CI 4-10]; mean age of 59·8 years [SD 11·7] with multiorgan abnormalities vs mean age of 52·8 years [11·9] without multiorgan abnormalities; p<0·0001), more likely to have three or more comorbidities (OR 2·47 [1·32-4·82]; padjusted=0·0059), and more likely to have a more severe acute infection (acute CRP >5mg/L, OR 3·55 [1·23-11·88]; padjusted=0·025) than those without multiorgan abnormalities. Presence of lung MRI abnormalities was associated with a two-fold higher risk of chest tightness, and multiorgan MRI abnormalities were associated with severe and very severe persistent physical and mental health impairment (PHOSP-COVID symptom clusters) after hospitalisation. INTERPRETATION After hospitalisation for COVID-19, people are at risk of multiorgan abnormalities in the medium term. Our findings emphasise the need for proactive multidisciplinary care pathways, with the potential for imaging to guide surveillance frequency and therapeutic stratification.

Abstract
Background: Robotic hiatal hernia (HH) repair has been demonstrated to be feasible and safe. Recent conflicting reports have emerged on the higher incidence of perioperative complications with robotic HH repair when compared with laparoscopic repair. Materials and Methods: A retrospective review of a prospective database at an academic medical center for all robotic HH repairs performed by a high-volume foregut surgeon from 2018 to 2021 was performed. Outcome measures included operative time, estimated blood loss (EBL), length of stay (LOS), conversion rate, need for esophageal lengthening procedure, intra- and perioperative complications, and 30-day in-hospital mortality. Results: One hundred four patients were included in the analysis. Fifteen percent of patients had a type I HH, 2% had a type II, 73% had a type III, and 10% had a type IV HH. Eighty-four percent of cases were primary and 16% were revisional. Fifty-four percent of patients had mesh placed and 4.4% had an esophageal lengthening procedure. Mean EBL was 15 mL and mean operative time was 151 minutes. Median LOS was 2 days (interquartile range 1-2 days). There were zero conversions. Intraoperative complication rate was 1% and 30-day complication rate was 4%. The 30-day in-hospital mortality was zero. Conclusion: In this retrospective analysis of 114 consecutive robotic HH repairs performed, with 83% type III or IV HHs and 16% revisional hiatal cases, our results demonstrate favorable perioperative outcomes, with lower EBL, shorter LOS, lower complication rate, zero conversions, and comparable operative times compared with historical laparoscopic data.

Abstract
Background Autotaxin-lysophosphatidic acid (ATX-LPA) signaling has a predominant role in immunological and fibrotic processes, including cancer. Several ATX inhibitors and LPA receptor antagonists have been clinically evaluated, but none in patients with solid tumors. Many cancers are burdened with a high degree of fibrosis and an immune desert phenotype (so-called 'cold' tumors). In these cold tumors, the fibrotic stroma provides an intrinsic cancer-supporting mechanism. Furthermore, the stroma prevents penetration and limits the effectiveness of existing therapies. IOA-289 is a novel ATX inhibitor with a unique chemical structure, excellent potency and an attractive safety profile. Materials and methods In vitro and in vivo pharmacology studies have been carried out to elucidate the pharmaceutical properties and mechanism of action of IOA-289. A phase I clinical study in healthy volunteers was carried out to determine the pharmacokinetics and pharmacodynamics of IOA-289 following a single oral dose. Results In vitro and in vivo studies showed that IOA-289 is a potent inhibitor of ATX and, as a monotherapy, is able to slow progression of lung fibrosis and tumor growth in mouse models. In a clinical study, IOA-289 showed a dose-dependent increase in plasma exposure levels and a corresponding decrease in circulating LPA. Conclusions Our data show that IOA-289 is a novel ATX inhibitor with a unique chemical structure, excellent potency and an attractive safety profile. Our data support the further development of IOA-289 as a novel therapeutic approach for the treatment of cancer, particularly those with a high fibrotic and immunologically cold phenotype.

Abstract
AIMS We report associations between different formulae for estimating plasma volume status (PVS) and clinical and ultrasound markers of congestion in patients with chronic heart failure (CHF) enrolled in the Hull Lifelab registry. METHODS AND RESULTS Cohort 1 comprised patients with data on signs and symptoms at initial evaluation (n = 3505). Cohort 2 included patients with ultrasound assessment of congestion [lung B-line count, inferior vena cava (IVC) diameter, jugular vein distensibility (JVD) ratio] (N = 341). Two formulae for PVS were used: (a) Hakim (HPVS) and (b) Duarte (DPVS). Results were compared with clinical and ultrasound markers of congestion. Outcomes assessed were mortality and the composite of heart failure (HF) hospitalisation and all-cause mortality. In cohort 1, HPVS was associated with mortality [hazard ratio (HR) per unitary increase = 1.02 (1.01-1.03); P < 0.001]. In cohort 2, HPVS was associated with B-line count (HR) = 1.05 [95% confidence interval (CI) (1.01-1.08); P = 0.02] and DPVS with the composite outcome [HR = 1.26 (1.01-1.58); P = 0.04]. HPVS and DPVS were strongly related to haemoglobin concentration and HPVS to weight. After multivariable analysis, there were no strong or consistent associations between PVS and measures of congestion, severity of symptoms, or outcome. By contrast, log[NTproBNP] was strongly associated with all three. CONCLUSION Amongst patients with CHF, HPVS and DPVS are not strongly or consistently associated with clinical or ultrasound evidence of congestion, nor clinical outcomes after multivariable adjustment. They appear only to be surrogates of the variables from which they are calculated with no intrinsic clinical utility.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES To document the level of vaccine hesitancy in caregivers' of children younger than 12 years of age over the course of the pandemic in Pediatric Emergency Departments (ED). Study design Ongoing multicenter, cross-sectional survey of caregivers presenting to 19 pediatric EDs in the USA, Canada, Israel, and Switzerland during first months of the pandemic (phase1), when vaccines were approved for adults (phase2) and most recently when vaccines were approved for children (phase3). RESULTS Willingness to vaccinate rate declined over the study period (59.7%, 56.1% and 52.1% in the three phases). Caregivers who are fully vaccinated, who have higher education, and those worried their child had COVID-19 upon arrival to the ED, were more likely to plan to vaccinate in all three phases. Mothers were less likely to vaccinate early in the pandemic, but this hesitancy attenuated in later phases. Older caregivers were more willing to vaccinate, and caregivers of older children were less likely to vaccinate their children in phase 3. During the last phase, willingness to vaccinate was lowest in those who had a primary care provider but did not rely on their advice for medical decisions (34%). Those with no primary care provider and those who do and rely on their medical advice, had similar rates of willingness to vaccinate (55.1% and 52.1%, respectively). CONCLUSIONS COVID-19 vaccine hesitancy is widespread and growing over time, and public health measures should further try to leverage identified factors associated with hesitancy in order to enhance vaccination rates among children.

Abstract
Many NP-hard combinatorial optimization (CO) problems can be cast as a quadratic unconstrained binary optimization model, which maps naturally to an Ising model. The final spin configuration in the Ising model can adiabatically arrive at a solution to a Hamiltonian, given a known set of interactions between spins. We enhance two photonic Ising machines (PIMs) and compare their performance against classical (Gurobi) and quantum (D-Wave) solvers. The temporal multiplexed coherent Ising machine (TMCIM) uses the bistable response of an electro-optic modulator to mimic the spin up and down states. We compare TMCIM performance on Max-cut problems. A spatial photonic Ising machine (SPIM) convolves the wavefront of a coherent laser beam with the pixel distribution of a spatial light modulator to adiabatically achieve a minimum energy configuration, and solve a number partitioning problem (NPP). Our computational results on Max-cut indicate that classical solvers are still a better choice, while our NPP results show that SPIM is better as the problem size increases. In both cases, connectivity in Ising hardware is crucial for performance. Our results also highlight the importance of better understanding which CO problems are most likely to benefit from which type of PIM. This article is part of the theme issue 'Quantum annealing and computation: challenges and perspectives'.

Abstract
Background Staphylococcus aureus infections are increasingly reported worldwide. It is a major clinical problem and imposes significant morbidity and mortality due to widespread emergence of multidrug resistant pathogens like methicillin resistant Staphylococcus aureus. Thus, rapid and reliable identification of Staphylococcus aureus is essential for timely and effective management of patient. Objective The performance of Latex agglutination test (Staphaurex Plus) was compared to conventional method tube coagulase test which is gold standard too for the identification of Staphylococcus aureus. Method This study was conducted at B.P. Koirala Institute of Health Sciences. Following standard microbiological methods, isolation and identification was done in the Department of Microbiology. MRSA detection was performed following Clinical and Laboratory Standard Institute. All the isolates of Staphylococci were subjected for Latex agglutination test and was performed according to manufacturer's instructions using Staphaurex Plus kit. Result Out of 377 (methicillin sensitive Staphylococcus aureus - 142; methicillin resistant Staphylococcus aureus - 233; Coagulase Negative Staphylococci -2) isolates of Staphylococci, Latex agglutination test was found to be positive in 138 (97.1%) of methicillin sensitive Staphylococcus aureus (MSSA) and 220 (94.4%) of methicillin resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA). Overall sensitivity, specificity, positive predictive value and negative predictive value of Latex agglutination test was found to be 95.46%, 100%, 100%, 10.52% respectively. Conclusion In conclusion, Latex agglutination test is a rapid and reliable test for the identification of Staphylococcus aureus.

Abstract
Imaging with radiolabeled exendin enables detection and characterization of glucagon-like peptide 1 receptors (GLP-1Rs) in vivo with high specificity. The novel radiotracer [68Ga]Ga-NODAGA-exendin-4 forms a stable complex after a simple and fast labeling procedure. Beta-cell mass in the islets of Langerhans can be visualized using [68Ga]Ga-NODAGA-exendin-4, which is promising for research into diabetes mellitus (DM) pathophysiology. Furthermore, this radiotracer enables very sensitive detection of insulinomas, resulting from vast overexpression of GLP-1Rs, and seems promising for the detection of focal lesions in congenital hyperinsulinism (CHI). Here, we describe the procedures involved in [68Ga]Ga-NODAGA-exendin-4 positron emission tomography (PET)/computed tomography (CT) imaging including the radiolabeling of the NODAGA-exendin conjugate with 68Ga, quality controls, and PET/CT.

Abstract
Importance A patient's belief in the likely success of a treatment may influence outcomes, but this has been understudied in surgical trials. Objective To examine the association between patients' baseline beliefs about the likelihood of treatment success with outcomes of antibiotics for appendicitis in the Comparison of Outcomes of Antibiotic Drugs and Appendectomy (CODA) trial. Design, Setting, and Participants This was a secondary analysis of the CODA randomized clinical trial. Participants from 25 US medical centers were enrolled between May 3, 2016, and February 5, 2020. Included in the analysis were participants with appendicitis who were randomly assigned to receive antibiotics in the CODA trial. After informed consent but before randomization, participants who were assigned to receive antibiotics responded to a baseline survey including a question about how successful they believed antibiotics could be in treating their appendicitis. Interventions Participants were categorized based on baseline survey responses into 1 of 3 belief groups: unsuccessful/unsure, intermediate, and completely successful. Main Outcomes and Measures Three outcomes were assigned at 30 days: (1) appendectomy, (2) high decisional regret or dissatisfaction with treatment, and (3) persistent signs and symptoms (abdominal pain, tenderness, fever, or chills). Outcomes were compared across groups using adjusted risk differences (aRDs), with propensity score adjustment for sociodemographic and clinical factors. Results Of the 776 study participants who were assigned antibiotic treatment in CODA, a total of 425 (mean [SD] age, 38.5 [13.6] years; 277 male [65%]) completed the baseline belief survey before knowing their treatment assignment. Baseline beliefs were as follows: 22% of participants (92 of 415) had an unsuccessful/unsure response, 51% (212 of 415) had an intermediate response, and 27% (111 of 415) had a completely successful response. Compared with the unsuccessful/unsure group, those who believed antibiotics could be completely successful had a 13-percentage point lower risk of appendectomy (aRD, -13.49; 95% CI, -24.57 to -2.40). The aRD between those with intermediate vs unsuccessful/unsure beliefs was -5.68 (95% CI, -16.57 to 5.20). Compared with the unsuccessful/unsure group, those with intermediate beliefs had a lower risk of persistent signs and symptoms (aRD, -15.72; 95% CI, -29.71 to -1.72), with directionally similar results for the completely successful group (aRD, -15.14; 95% CI, -30.56 to 0.28). Conclusions and Relevance Positive patient beliefs about the likely success of antibiotics for appendicitis were associated with a lower risk of appendectomy and with resolution of signs and symptoms by 30 days. Pathways relating beliefs to outcomes and the potential modifiability of beliefs to improve outcomes merit further investigation. Trial Registration ClinicalTrials.gov Identifier: NCT02800785.

Abstract
Abstract
Introduction
Oral broad-spectrum antibiotics (OBSAs), defined here as cephalosporins, fluoroquinolones and co-amoxiclav, are associated with AMR and adverse events in the elderly (ie. over 60s). Despite stringent national and local system-wide approaches aimed at reducing their inappropriate prescribing, the regional care commissioning group (CCG) alerted that OBSA prescribing within this practice between February and August 2021 at up to 14% of antibiotics prescriptions, has exceeded both the national and CCG limit which is 10%.1,2 This necessitates minimising OBSA prescribing among the over 60s in this practice.
Aim
To identify the percentage of inappropriate prescribing of OBSAs at Downend Health Group and investigate factors leading to their high prescribing rates using the following standard: 0% of OBSAs were prescribed inappropriately within a 7-month period, which includes prescribing outside of regional guidance without specialist input or evidence of infection.
Methods
The study design, data collection and analysis were conducted by the foundation trainee, supervised by the lead pharmacist. A retrospective population reporting search was run on our prescribing system (EMIS) to identify active patients over 60 years prescribed OBSAs between February and August 2021. To produce our IT data collection tool, the inclusion criteria were ages over 60 years, name of antibiotic, location of consultation, authorising user and prescribing indication. The search was piloted with 235 patients and narrowed down to 208 patients by adding acute (ie. one-off) prescription type as another inclusion criteria. Inactive and deceased patients at the time of the search were excluded. Data from the search was then compared against the regional guidance and further analysed. Ethics approval was not required for this audit.
Results
The results did not meet the set standard. Out of 208 active patients over 60 years prescribed OBSAs on acute during the defined period, 107 (51%) prescriptions were inappropriate. 63 (30%) prescriptions had the wrong antibiotic choice whereas 44 (21%) prescriptions had no evidence of infection. The top conditions with inappropriate OBSA prescriptions include UTI (22%), diverticulitis without pyrexia (15%) and cellulitis (11%). Furthermore, remote consultations had higher inappropriate prescribing as the error bar comparison between face-to-face vs remote consultations on influencing inappropriate OBSA prescribing showed statistical significance (p < 0.05). Although GPs authorised 188 (90%) of OBSA prescriptions, 15 out of the 20 (75%) OBSA prescriptions authorised by non-GPs were inappropriate. Despite the similar rates of appropriate (51%) and inappropriate (49%) OBSA prescribing among the GPs, four GPs had disproportionately high inappropriate OBSA prescribing.
Discussion/Conclusion
Further to excluding deceased patients from the sample size, another limitation is the lack of investigations to rule out the confounding variables of researcher bias and the potential influence of lockdowns in the high levels of remote consultations. Regardless, the results suggest that the practice can meet the national and CCG OBSA prescribing limit by reducing inappropriate OBSA prescribing from 51% to 0%. Following an internal clinical governance meeting with the authorising users, we will update relevant internal EMIS alerts and antimicrobial stewardship protocols, followed by a reaudit 7-months after implementing the updates.

Abstract
Abstract
Background
Heart failure with preserved ejection fraction (HFpEF) is a heterogenous syndrome that may emerge from overlapping systemic processes associated with several medical co-morbidities, often within an inflammatory milieu. Identification of unique proteins associated with distinct phenotypes may yield insight into novel therapeutics.
Purpose
Determine if unique clusters of circulating proteins are associated with specific clinical characteristics in patients with HFpEF.
Methods
A targeted discovery proteomics approach with 358 unique proteins associated with cardiovascular disease and inflammation (Olink) was used at baseline in VITALITY-HFpEF among 789 participants with documented left ventricular EF ≥45% and recent decompensation (<6 mos). Proteins were clustered applying the weighted correlation network analysis (WCNA). The associations of the clinical characteristics and frailty and clusters were estimated with linear regression adjusted for age and eGFR. Frailty was characterized as normal, pre-frail, and frail using the Fried criteria. KCCQ was the primary and 6-minute walk distance (6MWD) the secondary endpoint of VITALITY-HFpEF.
Results
Four unique clusters were identified containing 24, 66, 197, and 81 proteins, respectively. Figure 1 shows the adjusted association of the 4 protein clusters, shown with their hub proteins, with the clinical characteristics. The color (red: positive, green: negative relationship) and intensity indicate the magnitude of the standardized difference (relative to the variation [i.e., T-value]); p-value shown in boxes. Cluster 3, with tumor necrosis factor receptor 1 as a hub protein that mediates apoptosis and inflammation, was associated with greater frailty and physical limitation along with shorter 6MWD. In contrast, cluster 4, with protein C as a hub protein that regulates anticoagulation and exerts a protective function on endothelial cells, is associated with less frailty and younger age, and more frequently male sex. Cluster 2 was associated with only younger age and cluster 1 with no clinical characteristics.
Conclusions
Proteomics appear to identify specific clinical phenotypes associated with HFpEF. Further exploration of this approach may provide insight into the diverse pathophysiology characterizing this disorder and a more targeted approach to therapy.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Incisional hernias cause morbidity and may require further surgery. HART (Hughes Abdominal Repair Trial) assessed the effect of an alternative suture method on the incidence of incisional hernia following colorectal cancer surgery. METHODS A pragmatic multicentre single-blind RCT allocated patients undergoing midline incision for colorectal cancer to either Hughes closure (double far-near-near-far sutures of 1 nylon suture at 2-cm intervals along the fascia combined with conventional mass closure) or the surgeon's standard closure. The primary outcome was the incidence of incisional hernia at 1 year assessed by clinical examination. An intention-to-treat analysis was performed. RESULTS Between August 2014 and February 2018, 802 patients were randomized to either Hughes closure (401) or the standard mass closure group (401). At 1 year after surgery, 672 patients (83.7 per cent) were included in the primary outcome analysis; 50 of 339 patients (14.8 per cent) in the Hughes group and 57 of 333 (17.1 per cent) in the standard closure group had incisional hernia (OR 0.84, 95 per cent c.i. 0.55 to 1.27; P = 0.402). At 2 years, 78 patients (28.7 per cent) in the Hughes repair group and 84 (31.8 per cent) in the standard closure group had incisional hernia (OR 0.86, 0.59 to 1.25; P = 0.429). Adverse events were similar in the two groups, apart from the rate of surgical-site infection, which was higher in the Hughes group (13.2 versus 7.7 per cent; OR 1.82, 1.14 to 2.91; P = 0.011). CONCLUSION The incidence of incisional hernia after colorectal cancer surgery is high. There was no statistical difference in incidence between Hughes closure and mass closure at 1 or 2 years.

Abstract
BACKGROUND No effective pharmacological or non-pharmacological interventions exist for patients with long COVID. We aimed to describe recovery 1 year after hospital discharge for COVID-19, identify factors associated with patient-perceived recovery, and identify potential therapeutic targets by describing the underlying inflammatory profiles of the previously described recovery clusters at 5 months after hospital discharge. METHODS The Post-hospitalisation COVID-19 study (PHOSP-COVID) is a prospective, longitudinal cohort study recruiting adults (aged ≥18 years) discharged from hospital with COVID-19 across the UK. Recovery was assessed using patient-reported outcome measures, physical performance, and organ function at 5 months and 1 year after hospital discharge, and stratified by both patient-perceived recovery and recovery cluster. Hierarchical logistic regression modelling was performed for patient-perceived recovery at 1 year. Cluster analysis was done using the clustering large applications k-medoids approach using clinical outcomes at 5 months. Inflammatory protein profiling was analysed from plasma at the 5-month visit. This study is registered on the ISRCTN Registry, ISRCTN10980107, and recruitment is ongoing. FINDINGS 2320 participants discharged from hospital between March 7, 2020, and April 18, 2021, were assessed at 5 months after discharge and 807 (32·7%) participants completed both the 5-month and 1-year visits. 279 (35·6%) of these 807 patients were women and 505 (64·4%) were men, with a mean age of 58·7 (SD 12·5) years, and 224 (27·8%) had received invasive mechanical ventilation (WHO class 7-9). The proportion of patients reporting full recovery was unchanged between 5 months (501 [25·5%] of 1965) and 1 year (232 [28·9%] of 804). Factors associated with being less likely to report full recovery at 1 year were female sex (odds ratio 0·68 [95% CI 0·46-0·99]), obesity (0·50 [0·34-0·74]) and invasive mechanical ventilation (0·42 [0·23-0·76]). Cluster analysis (n=1636) corroborated the previously reported four clusters: very severe, severe, moderate with cognitive impairment, and mild, relating to the severity of physical health, mental health, and cognitive impairment at 5 months. We found increased inflammatory mediators of tissue damage and repair in both the very severe and the moderate with cognitive impairment clusters compared with the mild cluster, including IL-6 concentration, which was increased in both comparisons (n=626 participants). We found a substantial deficit in median EQ-5D-5L utility index from before COVID-19 (retrospective assessment; 0·88 [IQR 0·74-1·00]), at 5 months (0·74 [0·64-0·88]) to 1 year (0·75 [0·62-0·88]), with minimal improvements across all outcome measures at 1 year after discharge in the whole cohort and within each of the four clusters. INTERPRETATION The sequelae of a hospital admission with COVID-19 were substantial 1 year after discharge across a range of health domains, with the minority in our cohort feeling fully recovered. Patient-perceived health-related quality of life was reduced at 1 year compared with before hospital admission. Systematic inflammation and obesity are potential treatable traits that warrant further investigation in clinical trials.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Stratifying risk of postoperative pulmonary complications after major abdominal surgery allows clinicians to modify risk through targeted interventions and enhanced monitoring. In this study, we aimed to identify and validate prognostic models against a new consensus definition of postoperative pulmonary complications. METHODS We did a systematic review and international external validation cohort study. The systematic review was done in accordance with the Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analyses guidelines. We searched MEDLINE and Embase on March 1, 2020, for articles published in English that reported on risk prediction models for postoperative pulmonary complications following abdominal surgery. External validation of existing models was done within a prospective international cohort study of adult patients (≥18 years) undergoing major abdominal surgery. Data were collected between Jan 1, 2019, and April 30, 2019, in the UK, Ireland, and Australia. Discriminative ability and prognostic accuracy summary statistics were compared between models for the 30-day postoperative pulmonary complication rate as defined by the Standardised Endpoints in Perioperative Medicine Core Outcome Measures in Perioperative and Anaesthetic Care (StEP-COMPAC). Model performance was compared using the area under the receiver operating characteristic curve (AUROCC). FINDINGS In total, we identified 2903 records from our literature search; of which, 2514 (86·6%) unique records were screened, 121 (4·8%) of 2514 full texts were assessed for eligibility, and 29 unique prognostic models were identified. Nine (31·0%) of 29 models had score development reported only, 19 (65·5%) had undergone internal validation, and only four (13·8%) had been externally validated. Data to validate six eligible models were collected in the international external validation cohort study. Data from 11 591 patients were available, with an overall postoperative pulmonary complication rate of 7·8% (n=903). None of the six models showed good discrimination (defined as AUROCC ≥0·70) for identifying postoperative pulmonary complications, with the Assess Respiratory Risk in Surgical Patients in Catalonia score showing the best discrimination (AUROCC 0·700 [95% CI 0·683-0·717]). INTERPRETATION In the pre-COVID-19 pandemic data, variability in the risk of pulmonary complications (StEP-COMPAC definition) following major abdominal surgery was poorly described by existing prognostication tools. To improve surgical safety during the COVID-19 pandemic recovery and beyond, novel risk stratification tools are required. FUNDING British Journal of Surgery Society.

Abstract
BackgroundGiant cell arteritis (GCA) is the most common primary vasculitis in adults. It presents with signs of vascular insufficiency of the extracranial arteries of the head, but may also affect the aorta and its primary and secondary branches. GCA is more prevalent in Caucasians of Scandinavian and Northern European descent, and is considered to be less common in African, Asian, Arab and Latin American populations.1,2 However, this may reflect a lack of formal epidemiological data in these populations rather than a true lower incidence. This is evidenced by extensive studies in white populations and a significant paucity of data in other ethnic groups. The most frequent causes of death in GCA are cardiovascular disease (CVD) (39%) followed by cerebrovascular disease (CVA) (14%), infection (13%), and malignancy (12%).3 Overall, the mortality rate is increased in the first two years and is associated with the disease severity, extent, ischemic, and treatment complications, particularly from glucocorticoids.4,5ObjectivesThe aim of this study was to compare the rate of cardiovascular and infectious complications in GCA patients among different ethnicities.MethodsIn this retrospective cohort study, we identified patients with biopsy proven GCA based on ICD-10 codes, using the Nationwide Inpatient Sample database (NIS) from 2016 to 2019. We included acute coronary syndrome (ACS), CVA, thoracic ascending aneurysm rupture (TAA), and infection (composite of UTI, sepsis and pneumonia) as our outcomes of interest and compared them between Caucasian, African American (AA), and Hispanic ethnicities. We implemented logistic regression analysis in the univariable and multivariable models. In the multivariable model, we adjusted all outcomes for potential confounders, including age, sex, obesity, hyperlipidemia, congestive heart failure, peripheral vascular diseases, diabetes, hypertension, renal failure, history of smoking or alcohol abuse, history of other drug abuse, prior history of MI, primary coronary intervention, or coronary artery bypass grafting, coagulopathy, liver disease, chronic pulmonary disease, ischemic cardiomyopathy, Elixhauser comorbidity index, type of insurance, bed size of hospital, history of defibrillator or pacemaker, and long-term use of steroids. The analysis was done using the STATA software, version 17.0 (MP2).ResultsWe identified 7,750 patients with GCA, of whom 5,710 (74%) were Caucasian, 1,335 (17%) were AA, and 705 (9%) were Hispanic. Our results showed that Hispanics had both a higher prevalence (16.30% vs 9.80% vs 7.50%, p-value = 0.017) and risk for infections (OR: 2.74; 95%-CI 1.4-5.5; p-value = 0.004) when compared to the other racial groups. There was no difference in the risk of ACS among Caucasians (OR: 2.72; 95%-CI 0.6-12.4; p-value = 0.2) and Hispanics (OR: 2.72; 95%-CI 0.4-17.4; p-value = 0.004) when compared to AA population. Similarly, risk of CVA was not different between racial groups (Caucasians: OR: 1.04; 95%-CI 0.6-1.7; p-value = 0.87; Hispanics: OR: 0.8; 95%-CI 0.4-1.7; p-value = 0.567). The prevalence for TAA was only reported in the Caucasian group (0.50%).ConclusionACS and CVA are known complications of GCA. There does not appear to be a difference in the risks of these common cardiovascular complications among racial groups. However, there was a significantly higher rate of infections in the Hispanic population. This may be explained by biologic differences in susceptibility and racial disparities in insurance coverage and access to care.References[1]Tehrani, R., et al.

Abstract
Background Acute appendicitis (AA) is the most common surgical emergency, with a relatively stable yearly incidence. During the first wave of the COVID-19 pandemic, as New York City (NYC) emerged as the US epicenter, hospitals saw a marked reduction in patients presenting with non-COVID-related diseases. The objective of this study was to characterize the effects of the pandemic on the incidence, presentation, and management of AA. Methods A retrospective analysis of patients with AA who presented to two academic medical centers during the NYC COVID peak (March 22nd-May 31st, 2020) was performed. This group was compared to a control cohort presenting during the same period in 2019. Primary outcomes included the incidence of AA, complicated disease, and management. Secondary outcomes included duration of symptoms, hospital length of stay, and complication rates. Statistical analyses were performed using Mann-Whitney U, Chi-square, and Fisher’s exact tests. Results A 49.1% reduction in the incidence of AA was seen between 2019 (n = 114) and 2020 (n = 58). Median duration of symptoms doubled from 1 day in 2019 to 2 days in 2020 (P < .02). Proportionally, the incidence of complicated appendicitis rose from 19.3% to 41.4% (P < .005). 32.4% of patients with uncomplicated AA underwent non-operative management in 2020, compared to 12% in 2019 (P < .02). Hospital length of stay and complication rates were similar between years. Discussion Significantly fewer AA patients presented during the initial phase of the pandemic. Patients presented later, which may have contributed to a higher proportion of complicated disease. Surgeons were also more likely to treat uncomplicated AA nonoperatively than they were prior. Further research is needed to understand the long-term consequences of these changes.
