Incidence rates of Bell''s palsy in the predominately Mexican-American population of Laredo, Texas, USA, are higher than those reported elsewhere, reaching 23.5 per 100,000 among males and 32.7 per 100,000 among females. During childbearing years (15–44) the risk of Bell''s palsy was greater for women than for men (incidence density ratio 2.0; 95% confidence interval 1.3–3.1). No evidence for seasonality or epidemicity was obtained. Using prevalence estimates from community surveys in south Texas or the Hispanic Health and Nutrition Survey, standardized prevalence ratios (SPR) calculated for hypertension revealed a 10 or 20% increased risk for women and a 50 or 60% increased risk for men. SPRs calculated for diabetes among men with Bell''s palsy were twice that expected, while risks of 60% or 90% were noted for women. The increased incidence of Bell''s palsy observed in Laredo appears to be due to the high prevalence of diabetes in Mexican-Americans and, to a lesser extent, uncontrolled hypertension.

“…Hospitalization rates were presented as a rate per 100,000 US adult population. This was calculated by dividing total weighted number of TE hospitalizations with a diagnosis of AF for a specific year (numerator), by the US census adult population estimate for that year (denominator) then multiplied by 100,000 (24). These hospitalizations were further age adjusted based on the US standard population from the year 2000.…”

BackgroundDirect oral anticoagulants and percutaneous left atrial appendage occlusion (LAAC) devices were approved for use in 2010 and 2015, respectively. It is unknown to what extent, if any, these new stroke preventive therapies have impacted hospitalizations for thromboembolic (TE) events in the United States.MethodsWe used the National Inpatient Sample database to describe trends over time in AF-related hospitalizations for acute ischemic stroke (AIS), transient ischemic attacks (TIA), and systemic embolic events (SEE) between 2010 and 2021. Trends in anticoagulation use (AC) and percutaneous LAAC procedures among hospitalized patients with AF were also analyzed.ResultsA total of 1,692,373 hospitalizations for TE were identified between 2010 and 2021: 798,413 from 2010 to 2015 (mean age 78.9 [standard deviation (SD) 10.7] years; 57.8% female) and 893,960 from 2016 to 2021 (mean age 77.5 [SD 10.9] years; 53.1% female). There was a significant increase in rates of AC use (21.2% of inpatients with AF in 2010 vs 42.4% of inpatients with AF in 2021; Ptrend<0.001) and rates of percutaneous LAAC procedures (0.1/100,000 US adults vs to 17.7/100,000 US adults Ptrend<0.001) among inpatients with AF. Between 2010 to 2021, age-adjusted AIS hospitalizations increased (30.8 hospitalizations /100,000 US adults vs 35.9 hospitalizations/ 100,000 US adults; Ptrend<0.001) and peaked in 2019. Age-adjusted SEE hospitalizations (2.5 hospitalizations /100,000 US adults vs 1.3 hospitalizations/ 100,000 US adults; Ptrend<0.001) and TIA hospitalization(8.5 hospitalizations /100,000 US adults vs 4.3 hospitalizations/ 100,000 US adults; Ptrend<0.001) peaked in 2011 and then decreased. Between 2016 and 2021, age-adjusted AIS hospitalizations plateaued (37.7 hospitalizations/100,000 US adults vs 35.9 hospitalizations/100,000 US adults; APC −4.7%; Ptrend= 0.197). The total of all TE hospitalizations remained stable (41.8 hospitalizations/100,000 US adults vs 41.5 hospitalizations/100,000 US adults; Ptrend0.689).ConclusionDespite increased anticoagulant and the initial use of percutaneous LAAO, AF-associated TE event hospitalizations in the US have remained stable from 2010 to 2021. Hospitalizations for AF-related TIA and SEE consistently decreased from 2010 to 2021 while AF-related AIS hospitalizations increased from 2010 to 2015 and then plateaued from 2016 to 2021.

“…22 Percentage of residents below the poverty line and educational attainment (ie, receiving a college degree or higher) data were obtained from the American Community Survey 23 and the US Census. 24 Regarding household gun ownership, prior studies have used the ratio of firearm suicides to all suicides (FS/S) as a proxy for household firearm ownership. 15,25 This proxy is highly correlated (r = 0.80) with state-specific measures of firearm ownership on a cross-sectional basis.…”

Association of Changes in Missouri Firearm Laws With Adolescent and Young Adult Suicides by Firearms

et al. 2020

Key Points Question Were changes in Missouri’s firearm laws associated with rates of suicide by firearms in young Missouri residents? Findings In this cross-sectional study, repeal of the permit-to-purchase law was associated with a 21.8% increase in firearm suicide rates in young adults aged 19 to 24 years in Missouri. Lowering the minimum age of concealed carry to age 19 years in Missouri was associated with increased firearm suicide rates by 32.0% and nonfirearm suicide rates by 29.7% in adolescents aged 14 to 18 years, and increased firearm suicide rates by 7.2% in young adults aged 19 to 24 years. Meaning These findings suggest that changes in Missouri’s permit-to-purchase and concealed carry firearm laws may have contributed to increased rates of firearm suicides in young Missouri residents.
