Variation in mortality following hip fracture across the Asia Pacific region: Systematic review and proportional meta-analysis. Arch Gerontol Geriatr 2024; 126:105519. [PMID: 38941947 DOI: 10.1016/j.archger.2024.105519] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/05/2024] [Revised: 05/24/2024] [Accepted: 06/02/2024] [Indexed: 06/30/2024]
Abstract
OBJECTIVE To determine country/region-specific mortality (in-hospital, 30-day and 1-year) following hip fracture across the Asia Pacific region. METHODS Five databases MEDLINE, PUBMED, EMBASE, Web of Science and the Cochrane Library were searched to identify studies that reported mortality following hospitalisation for low-trauma hip fracture in adults aged ≥50 years with data from 2010 to 30 September 2021. There were no restrictions on study design or language. Pooled mortality estimates for countries/regions with ≥2 studies were calculated using random-effects models. RESULTS In total 244 studies were included in the meta-analysis. 123 studies (1,382,810 patients, 13 countries/regions) reported in-hospital mortality which ranged from 1.4 % in Japan [95 %CI 1.2-1.7], Singapore [95 %CI 1.0-1.6], China [95 %CI 0.8-2.3] and Hong Kong SAR [95 %CI 0.8-2.6] to 5.5 % [95 %CI 4.1-7.2] in New Zealand. 92 studies (628,450 patients, 13 countries/regions) reported 30-day mortality which ranged from 1.2 % in Japan [95 %CI 0.9-1.5] and Thailand [95 %CI 0.7-2.0] to 7.4 % [95 %CI 7.0-7.8] in Australia. 142 studies (1,139,752 patients, 14 countries/regions) reported 1-year mortality which ranged from 10.8 % [95 %CI 9.6-12.1] in Singapore to 23.3 % [95 %CI 22.3-24.5] in Australia and 23.8 % in New Zealand. CONCLUSION There is substantial variation in mortality across the Asia Pacific region. Short-term mortality rates in Asian countries, notably Japan and Singapore, are up to four-fold lower than for Australia and New Zealand. This difference, although less marked, is sustained at 1-year with a two-fold lower mortality rate in Asia. This meta-analysis is the first to delineate these differences, further studies are required to understand the reasons for this variation.

Abstract
Effective leaders in healthcare settings create a motivating work environment, initiate changes in practice, and facilitate interdisciplinary collaboration to advance patient-centered care. Health professionals in cancer education need leadership development to meet the continued rise in cancer cases and to keep up with the rapid biomedical and technological advances in global cancer care. In addition, leadership development in cancer education supports interprofessional collaboration, optimizes patient engagement, and provides mentorship opportunities necessary for career advancement and skill development. The identified benefits from leadership development in cancer education led to the creation of an interactive pilot leadership workshop titled "Essential Skills in Cancer Education: Leadership, Leading, and Influencing Change in Cancer Education," held at the International Cancer Education Conference in October 2020. The workshop was led by global leaders in cancer education and utilized lectures, mentorship opportunities, interactive case studies, and individual learning projects to develop leadership skills in multidisciplinary oncology professionals. Fifteen attendees from diverse educational backgrounds and levels of experience participated in the virtual leadership workshop and mentorship program. Following the workshop, participants reported an increase in knowledge regarding how to use different leadership styles, initiate changes in practice, and apply leadership skills in their career development and at their institutions. The feedback received from participants through post-workshop evaluations was overall positive and demonstrated an interest for more leadership development opportunities in cancer education. This pilot workshop shows that leadership is a valuable and teachable skill that will benefit both healthcare professionals and patients in the field of cancer education.

Abstract

Background
Re-initiation is an important mechanism of anti-tachycardia pacing (ATP) failure, whereby VT is first terminated by the initial ATP application, before being re-initiated by successive pulses. Current ICD designs are able to measure and store electrograms (EGMs) for detecting and classifying arrhythmias, which contain information that may also be used during ATP application. Developing an algorithm that automatically processes EGMs during ATP, with the goal of detecting the initial VT termination and truncating subsequent ATP pulses (which has the potential to re-initiate), may thus increase ATP efficacy.
Purpose
To develop a proof-of-concept ATP detection algorithm: Early Termination Detection Algorithm (ETDA), to automatically sense the signs of early VT termination and cease further ATP pulses based on real-time sensed EGMs from implanted devices.
Methods
A cohort of 7 porcine infarcted ventricular computational models were subject to virtual induction protocols to induce sustained VTs. Functional model properties were adjusted to provide 73 unique VT episodes (260≤VT cycle length (CL)≤480ms). For each episode, burst ATP was delivered from typical pacing sites near the right ventricle (RV) septum to evaluate its efficacy. The ATP failures and their failure mechanisms were identified, accordingly. During ATP application, five common sensing EGM vectors from implanted devices were recovered from simulations including can-to-Superior vena cava (SVC) coil, can-to-RV ring, SVC coil-to-RV coil ring, RV coil tip-to-RV coil ring and LV coil at the lateral base-to-RV tip. Our proposed ETDA utilises those EGMs for VT termination detection. Specifically, correlation coefficients (CCs) of the EGMs between two successive ATP pulses were calculated and averaged to identify sudden changes in EGM morphology that indicate VT termination (Fig A). A discriminating threshold on the CCs was chosen by comparing all re-initiation cases with detailed analysis of the actual VT termination time observed from simulation results. ETDA was then applied to all cases to identify initial termination and improvement in efficacy.
Results
Before ETDA application, ATP terminated 42 cases (58%, Fig C), with re-initiation attributing to 11 (35%) of ATP failures. Application of ETDA accurately detected VT termination in 91% of re-initiated cases, 90% of terminated cases and 81% of not-terminated cases (Fig B), which enhanced the overall ATP efficacy to 71% (P=0.08) (Fig C).
Conclusions
The real-time EGMs measured from standard ICD/CRT-D devices may be used to improve ATP efficacy through an approach such as ETDA. ETDA detects signs of early termination automatically in real time which enables identification of successful VT termination, truncating subsequent pulses that may re-initiate the VT, which enhances overall ATP efficacy.

Abstract
Abstract

Type of funding sources: Public grant(s) – National budget only. Main funding source(s): Medical Research Council, UK
Background
Anti-tachycardia pacing (ATP) is a reliable electrotherapy to painlessly terminate ventricular tachycardia (VT). However, ATP is often ineffective, particularly for fast VTs, which is often due to the inability of paced wavefronts to reach the re-entrant circuit, because of functional or anatomical barriers. It is thought that efficacy may be enhanced by optimised delivery closer to the re-entrant circuit driving the VT.
Purpose
To quantitatively assess the dependence of ATP efficacy upon different delivery locations with respect to the re-entrant circuit.
Methods
A cohort of 7 porcine ventricular infarct computational models were generated based on in vivo magnetic resonance imaging. Rapid-pacing protocols were applied to the cohort to induce VTs. Functional model parameters were adjusted to produce 73 episodes of sustained monomorphic VT, including 32 fast VTs (cycle length (CL)≤320ms) and 41 slow VTs (320ms-<VTCL≤<VTCL≤>480ms). Burst ATP (2 sequences of 8 pulses at 88% of VTCL) was separately delivered from 3 locations proximal to the re-entrant circuit (along the RV septum), specifically within the critical isthmus (CI), and at the Exit and Entrance sites, along with 3 locations distal to the circuit (lateral/posterior LV), based on multipolar implanted devices with LV epicardial leads, constituting 438 virtual scenarios and efficacy compared (Fig A).
Results
ATP efficacy was significantly higher for slow VTs than for fast VTs (65% vs 46%, P=0.00004) (Fig B). Separate analysis of slow VT cases revealed that delivering from distal locations to the re-entrant circuit was significantly more effective than delivering from proximal locations (72% vs 59%, P=0.04). However, for fast VT cases, the trend was reversed with proximal application (41%) being more effective than distal application (51%, P=0.15) (Fig B). Moreover, individual analysis on specific proximal locations revealed that in slow VT cases, delivering at the Exit site of VT was significantly less efficient than delivering at the Entrance site (46% vs 73%, P=0.01), with a similar (although non-significant) trend also being seen for fast VTs (44% vs 53%, P=0.5) (Fig C). Moreover, for fast VT cases, ATP delivery within the CI was overall the most effective (56%) than all other locations while this trend was not seen in slow VT cases.
Conclusions
ATP delivery proximal to the re-entrant circuit improves efficacy in fast VTs, but less so in slow VTs, where delivering from distal sites is superior. Specifically, for fast VTs, ATP delivery within the CI is the most effective. This work suggests that real-time alteration in applied ATP delivery site choice in a multipolar device (guided by the sensed VT rate by the device prior to therapy delivery) may be beneficial. Combined with the state-of-art leadless pacing technology, this also provides a clinical opportunity for patient-specific ATP delivery configuration and programming.

Background
ICD is an effective direct therapy against VT/VF by applying a strong electrical shock across the heart between the shocking coil and can. Conventionally, patients will have a shocking coil inside the right ventricle (RV) and a can at the upper left chest. However, due to infections or other conditions, the can may need to place towards the right chest. The placement of the RV coil may also vary in different cases, for example avoiding scar. However, it is unclear how defibrillation efficacy may be altered by these unavoidable modifications to conventional lead/can configurations and whether optimisation may be possible.
Purpose
To compare defibrillation efficacy of modifications of ICD configurations in a cohort of whole-torso models.
Methods
A cohort of 15 whole torso models was generated from high resolution CT data and contrast CT cardiac scans, including 5 dilated cardiomyopathy (DCM), 5 hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (HCM) and 5 structurally normal patients (Fig A). Transvenous ICDs were represented by a shocking coil inside the RV (near apex) and a (ground) can at the upper left chest as default settings. Configurations were then varied by moving the can to the right chest, moving the RV coil up the mid-septum or adding extra grounds (Superior Vena Cava (SVC) coil, coronary sinus (CS) coil (Fig A)). Defibrillation-strength shocks were applied to all models (Fig B). DFTs and mean electrical field were evaluated across the whole heart as well as specific LV, RV, RV insertion regions, along with overall impedance.
Results
Shifting the can from left to right significantly increased DFT for the whole heart (23 J vs 15 J, P=0.03) and LV (25 J vs 17 J, P=0.03) (Fig C) and reduced the mean electrical field. Moving the RV coil further up the septum did not significantly alter DFT (Fig D), but did reduce mean electrical field for all regions and reduce impedance significantly. Additional separate coils significantly reduced DFT for all regions (Fig D) by increasing mean electrical field, whilst adding both coils significantly reduced DFT the most (whole heart: 15 J vs 6 J, P=0.03) (Fig E). Impedance was increased significantly by adding SVC coil, but reduced significantly by adding CS coil. Adding both coils increased impedance slightly.
Conclusions
Although a right-sided can increases DFT by over 50%, additional leads (grounds) may mitigate this increase by increasing mean electrical field. Moving the RV coil closer to the mid-septum reduces DFT slightly, but also reduces mean electrical field and impedance significantly.

Abstract
Abstract

Type of funding sources: Foundation. Main funding source(s): British Heart Foundation
Background
Interpolation of data is common during clinical electrophysiology procedures. Applications include local activation mapping, voltage mapping and novel techniques including Sparkle and Coherence mapping. Nevertheless, underlying interpolation algorithms are proprietary and therefore challenging to reproduce. Importantly, direct comparison of electroanatomic datasets between system vendors is therefore not possible.
Purpose
We sought to (1) develop an open-source architecture for interpolation within the Open Electrophysiology Framework for Research (OpenEP; https://openep.io); (2) to provide three interpolation methods within this architecture and (3) to evaluate their performance against clinical data.
Method
The software architecture is shown in Figure 1A. The currently available methods are Radial Basis [1], Scattered Interpolant [2] and Local Smoothing [3]. Default parameters for each method are shown in Figure 1B.
The performance of each method was assessed using clinical left atrial mapping data, using the default options for each scheme. Following interpolation, a sample of 1000 activation/voltage points per mesh was used for analysis. For each interpolation method, correlation with clinical data was assessed using the intra-class correlation coefficient, whilst agreement was assessed using Bland Altman limits of agreement.
Results
For activation mapping, radial basis interpolation resulted in a smoother field than local smoothing, whilst scattered interpolation required more filtering of extreme values. Correlations between interpolated and original activation times were excellent for all interpolation schemes (radial basis R=0.91, p<0.0001; local smoothing R=0.95, p<0.0001; scattered interpolant R=0.92, p<0.0001). Local smoothing resulted in the narrowest 95 percent limits of agreement (-19 to +20ms), compared to radial basis (-24 to +28ms) and scattered interpolation (-22 to +25ms).
For voltage mapping, the interpolation schemes resulted in similar appearances of low voltage areas, however correlations with clinical data were weaker than for activation mapping (radial basis R=0.84, p<0.0001; local smoothing R=0.82, p<0.0001; scattered interpolant R=0.79, p<0.0001). The 95 percent limits of agreement were wide as a proportion of the mean data values, ranging from 83% (-0.8 to +0.66mV) for local smoothing to 97% (-0.78 to +0.63mV) for radial basis interpolation.
Conclusion
An extensible architecture is provided for data interpolation in OpenEP together with three interpolation methods. The methods performed wellfor local activation time interpolation but variation compared to clinical data was greater for voltage mapping. This new architecture will permit the optimisation of interpolation methods against "gold standard" simulation or histological data and facilitate comparison of datasets between system vendors.

Abstract
Rationale: Several common and rare genetic variants have been associated with idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis, a progressive fibrotic condition that is localized to the lung. Objectives: To develop an integrated understanding of the rare and common variants located in multiple loci that have been reported to contribute to the risk of disease. Methods: We performed deep targeted resequencing (3.69 Mb of DNA) in cases (n = 3,624) and control subjects (n = 4,442) across genes and regions previously associated with disease. We tested for associations between disease and 1) individual common variants via logistic regression and 2) groups of rare variants via sequence kernel association tests. Measurements and Main Results: Statistically significant common variant association signals occurred in all 10 of the regions chosen based on genome-wide association studies. The strongest risk variant is the MUC5B promoter variant rs35705950, with an odds ratio of 5.45 (95% confidence interval, 4.91-6.06) for one copy of the risk allele and 18.68 (95% confidence interval, 13.34-26.17) for two copies of the risk allele (P = 9.60 × 10-295). In addition to identifying for the first time that rare variation in FAM13A is associated with disease, we confirmed the role of rare variation in the TERT and RTEL1 gene regions in the risk of IPF, and found that the FAM13A and TERT regions have independent common and rare variant signals. Conclusions: A limited number of common and rare variants contribute to the risk of idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis in each of the resequencing regions, and these genetic variants focus on biological mechanisms of host defense and cell senescence.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Among hospitalized adults and children pain is undertreated. This study wants to assess the effectiveness of pain therapy in two departments of a large children's hospital. MATERIALS AND METHODS During a single day work three committees, administering a questionnaire to patients or parents, have evaluated the adherence to international recommendations (JCI and WHO) in the management of analgesic therapy. Patient demographics, prevalence and intensity (moderate and/or severe) of pain (during hospitalization, 24 hours before and at the time of the interview), analgesia (type, route, duration and frequency of administration) and Pain Management Index (=analgesic score-pain score) were recorded. RESULTS 75 patients participated in the study (age: 2 months up to 24 years, mean 7.8 ± 6). During hospitalization 43 children (57%) had no pain while 32 (43%) have experienced pain. 22 children (29 %) had pain 24 hours before and 12 (16%) at the time of the interview. The average value of the PMI was -0.8±1.3 with a minimum of -3 and a maximum of +2: 60% (19) of the children had a PMI less than 0 (undertreated pain) while 40% (13) had a value=or>0. Out of 32 patients who needed an analgesic therapy 14 (44%) received an around-the-clock dosing, 8 (25%) an intermittent therapy and 10 (31%) no treatment.17 (77 %) were the single drug therapy and 5 (23%) the multimodal ones. CONCLUSIONS The prevalence of pain in the two departments is high. The main cause is that knowledge is not still well translated into clinical practice.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Junctional (flat) naevi predominate on the extremities, whereas dermal (raised) naevi are found primarily on the head, neck and trunk. Few studies have investigated the anatomical site prevalence of melanocytic naevi categorized using dermoscopy. OBJECTIVES To identify the prevalence of dermoscopic patterns and structures of naevi from the back and legs of adolescents. METHODS Dermoscopic images of acquired melanocytic naevi were obtained from the back and legs of students from a population-based cohort in Framingham, Massachusetts. Naevi were classified into reticular, globular, homogeneous or complex dermoscopic patterns. Multinomial logistic regression modelling assessed the associations between dermoscopic pattern and anatomical location. RESULTS In total 509 participants (mean age 14 years) contributed 2320 back naevi and 637 leg naevi. Compared with homogeneous naevi, globular and complex naevi were more commonly observed on the back than the legs [odds ratio (OR) 29·39, 95% confidence interval (CI) 9·53-90·65, P < 0·001 and OR 6·8, 95% CI 2·7-17·14, P < 0·001, respectively], whereas reticular lesions were less likely to be observed on the back than on the legs (OR 0·67, 95% CI 0·54-0·84, P = 0·001). Naevi containing any globules were more prevalent on the back than on the legs (25% vs. 3·6%, P < 0·001). Naevi containing any network were more prevalent on the legs than on the back (56% vs. 40·6%, P < 0·001). CONCLUSIONS These findings add to a robust body of literature suggesting that dermoscopically defined globular and reticular naevi represent biologically distinct naevus subsets that differ in histopathological growth pattern, age- and anatomical-site-related prevalence, molecular phenotype and aetiological pathways.

Abstract
UNLABELLED Due to the extensive focus of the literature on the burden placed on families in which a member has been diagnosed with a mental illness such as schizophrenia, there is a need to identify factors that may help these families to be resilient and adapt to their crisis. The aim of this study was to identify family resilience qualities in families in which a member has been diagnosed with schizophrenia. The study comprised 42 families, represented by 33 parents and 9 siblings of the diagnosed family member. Families were recruited from three support groups within the Cape Metropolitan area, Western Cape, South Africa. Qualitative data were obtained through an open-ended question and quantitative data were collected with seven self-report questionnaires. The following family resilience qualities were identified: family income; finding support in their community; family togetherness; family communication style during crises; affirming and supportive communication patterns; family hardiness; commitment to the family; reframing crises as a challenge; and an internal locus of control within the family. The findings may be used by professionals and support group facilitators to enhance the resilience and functioning of families living with a member with schizophrenia. ACCESSIBLE SUMMARY With approximately 1% of the world's population diagnosed with schizophrenia, it is clear that many families are affected when a member has been diagnosed. There is a need to identify factors that may help these families to be resilient. The aim of this study was to identify family resilience qualities in families in which a member has been diagnosed with schizophrenia. The following family resilience qualities were identified as resources that helped them to adapt to the many challenges put to them: family income, finding support in their community, the availability of hospitals, churches and professionals, family togetherness, family communication, family hardiness, commitment to the family, reframing crises as a challenge, and an internal locus of control within the family. Due to the limited studies on resilience in families in which a member has been diagnosed with schizophrenia, we suggest that the current study may contribute to this literature and provide a more comprehensive look at resilience in these families. Furthermore, the current study may contribute to knowledge about factors and resources that are associated with resilience in families in which a member has been diagnosed with schizophrenia. Finally, the findings of this study may be used in interventions to help families from different cultures and socio-economic statuses to adapt and hence be resilient.

Abstract
This series of papers examines how the Anglo-American dental profession was established in the eighteenth century, examining its need for a name and identity, public recognition and official status. This third paper describes the introduction of the title dentist as the preferred one when used officially and politically.
