“…14 Previous studies showed that hypoalbuminemia may increase the risks of primary and secondary infections. 15,16 In our study, we found that blood glucose was a significant predictor of infection in patients with DBS surgery. Li et al showed that a high blood glucose level (p < 0.001) was a risk factor for surgical site infection.…”

OBJECTIVE Infection is one of the important and frequent complications following implantable pulse generator and deep brain stimulation (DBS) electrode insertion. The goal of this study was to retrospectively evaluate and identify potential risk factors for DBS infections. METHODS From January 2015 to January 2021 in Qingdao municipal hospital (training cohort) and The First Affiliated Hospital of the University of Science and Technology of China (validation cohort), the authors enrolled patients with Parkinson disease who had undergone primary DBS placement or implantable pulse generator replacement. The cases were divided into infection or no-infection groups according to the 6-month follow-up. The authors used the logistic regression models to determine the association between the variables and DBS infection. Depending on the results of logistic regression, the authors established a nomogram. The calibration curves, receiver operating characteristic curve analysis, and decision curves were used to evaluate the reliability of the nomogram. RESULTS There were 191 cases enrolled in the no-infection group and 20 cases in the infection group in the training cohort. The univariate logistic regression showed that BMI, blood glucose, and albumin were all significant predictors of infection after DBS surgery (OR 0.832 [p = 0.009], OR 1.735 [p < 0.001], and OR 0.823 [p = 0.001], respectively). In the crude, adjust I, and adjust II models, the three variables stated above were all considered to be significant predictors of infection after DBS surgery. The calibration curves in both training and validation cohorts showed that the predicted outcome fitted well to the observed outcome (p > 0.05). The decision curves showed that the nomogram had more benefits than the "All or None" scheme. The areas under the curve were 0.93 and 0.83 in the training and validation cohorts, respectively. CONCLUSIONS The nomogram included BMI, blood glucose, and albumin, which were significant predictors of infection in patients with DBS surgery. The nomogram was reliable for clinical application.

“…There were significant differences in leukocyte levels between MI and non-MI groups. Increased NLR was reported to be an independent risk factor for RP-ILD of anti-MDA5 Ab+ DM/CADM patients and a poor prognostic factor for IIM patients ( 16 , 25 ). In our study, the deceased group had a significantly higher NLR, which is consistent with those reported.…”

“…Due to the small sample size of the deceased group, it is inappropriate to introduce all 16 variables into the multivariate analysis. Increased levels of LDH, ferritin, CRP, ESR, and NLR but decreased levels of ALB have been reported to be poor prognostic factors of PM/DM or PM/DMassociated ILD (16)(17)(18)(19). Especially, LDH and ferritin are established as serum biomarkers related to prognosis in anti-MDA5 Ab+ DM (20).…”

ObjectivesStudies concerning myocardial involvement (MI) in patients with anti-melanoma differentiation-associated gene 5 antibody-positive dermatomyositis/clinically amyopathic dermatomyositis (anti-MDA5 Ab+ DM/CADM) are scarce. We aimed to characterize MI in our anti-MDA5 Ab+ DM/CADM cohort and to investigate its association with prognosis.MethodsIn this single-center retrospective study, anti-MDA5 Ab+ hospitalized DM/CADM patients who underwent transthoracic echocardiography (TTE) were enrolled. Myocardial involvement was diagnosed according to abnormal cardiac structure and function detected by TEE. Clinical features and cardiac examination findings of patients with MI were analyzed. Clinical features, laboratory findings, complications, and treatments were compared between MI and non-MI, deceased, and survival patients. Logistic regression analysis was used to explore the independent risk factors for the occurrence of MI and prognostic factors for these patients.ResultsSeventy-six hospitalized patients with anti-MDA5 Ab+ DM/CADM were enrolled. Twelve (15.8%) patients were diagnosed with MI. Of the 12 patients, three underwent cardiac magnetic resonance imaging (CMR) and late gadolinium enhancement (LGE) were noted for them. TEE revealed that eight (66.7%) patients had left atrial and/or ventricular enlargement, three (25.0%) had cardiac hypertrophy, six (50.0%) had diffuse ventricular wall dyskinesia, and seven (58.3%) had diastolic dysfunction. Six (50.0%) patients with MI developed heart failure (HF) during treatment. Of the 12 patients, one patient died of HF caused by myocarditis, three died of infection, and four died of exacerbation of rapidly progressive interstitial lung disease (RP-ILD). Logistic regression analysis revealed that dysphagia (OR 3.923, 95% CI 1.085, 14.181), NT-proBNP >600 pg/ml (OR 18.333, 95% CI 1.508, 222.875), and increased peripheral white blood cells (OR 1.201, 95% CI 1.003, 1.438) were risk factors for the occurrence of MI, but plasma albumin (OR 0.892, 95% CI 0.796, 0.999) was a protective factor. Both MI (OR 5.984, 95% CI 1.174, 30.496) and RP-ILD (OR 11.875, 95% CI 2.796, 50.411) were independent risk factors for the mortality of these anti-MDA5 Ab+ DM/CADM patients.ConclusionMyocardial involvement is not rare and is an independent poor prognostic factor of anti-MDA5 Ab+ DM/CADM patients. Cardiac abnormality screening is necessary for them.

“…Finally, despite the heterogeneity of the study's design and differences in the follow up time makes data comparison of IIM survival based on gross domestic product challenging, it seems there are no major variations in the IIM survival rate between high (4-8) to upper middle (17,19) or lower income countries (20) over 1 and 5 years.…”

Background: Idiopathic inflammatory myopathies (IIMs) are rare systemic diseases associated with significant morbidity and mortality. The aim of our study was to estimate for the first time the survival of IIM patients in Slovenia.Methods: We included IIM patients diagnosed between January 2005 and December 2020 and followed at two secondary/tertiary rheumatology centers in the country. To study survival/mortality the censor date of April 14 2021 was set. Kaplan–Meier analysis and standardized mortality ratio (SMR) were plotted using data of age and sex matched Slovenian population as a reference. Cox proportional hazards regression analysis was used to study prognostic factors for IIM mortality.Results: During the 16-year observation period, we identified 217 new IIM patients. During follow up 65 (30.0%) patients died. In the first year following IIM diagnosis the SMR was nearly 7-fold higher compared to the matched general population [SMR 6.88 (95%CI 4.41–10.24)] and remained higher also during the following 4 years. However, when excluding IIM patients with cancer, the survival outcome was, except in the first year after IIM diagnosis [SMR 5.55 (95%CI 3.10–9.15)], comparable to matched general population. In addition to cancer [HR 3.71 (95% CI 2.18–6.04)], cardiac involvement [HR 2.18 (95% CI 1.07–4.45)], fever [HR 2.13 (95% CI 1.13–4.03)], and older age [HR 1.07 (95% CI 1.04–1.09)] were extracted as prognostic factors associated with death.Conclusion: The survival of patients with IIM patients was substantially worse compared to matched general population. Cancer was the leading cause of death in our cohort.
