Abstract
AIMS The association between type 2 diabetes (T2D) and adverse COVID-19 outcomes has been reported, but data are scarce on whether pre-existing cardiovascular disease (CVD) impacts COVID-19 outcomes in T2D patients. This study compared outcomes among COVID-19 patients with pre-existing T2D-only, T2D+CVD, or neither. METHODS This retrospective cohort study used administrative claims, laboratory, and mortality data from the HealthCore Integrated Research Database (HIRD®). Patients with COVID-19 were identified from 03/01/2020 to 05/31/2021 and stratified by presence of T2D and CVD. Outcomes included hospitalization, intensive care unit (ICU) admission, mortality, and complications following COVID-19 infection. Propensity score matching and multivariable analyses were performed. RESULTS A total of 321,232 COVID-19 patients were identified (21,651 T2D+CVD, 28,184 T2D-only, and 271,397 neither) with a mean (SD) follow-up of 5.4 (3.0) months. After matching, 6,967 patients were identified for each group, and residual baseline differences remained. Adjusted analyses showed that COVID-19 patients with T2D+CVD were 59% more likely to be hospitalized, 74% more likely to be admitted to the ICU, and had 26% higher mortality risk than those with neither. COVID-19 patients with T2D only were 28% and 32% more likely to be admitted to the hospital and ICU than those with neither, respectively. Among all T2D+CVD patients, acute respiratory distress syndrome (31%) and acute kidney disease (24%) were observed. CONCLUSION Our study highlights the incrementally poorer outcomes associated with pre-existing T2D+CVD in COVID-19 patients compared to those without T2D/CVD and suggests consideration of a more optimal management approach in these patients.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Treatment with phosphodiesterase type 5 inhibitors (PDE-5is) is effective in treating erectile dysfunction (ED). AIM The objective of this study was to determine the effect of PDE-5is on the incidence of major adverse cardiovascular (CV) events (MACE; composite outcome of CV death, hospitalization for myocardial infarction, coronary revascularization, stroke, heart failure, and unstable angina pectoris) and overall mortality. METHODS A retrospective observational cohort study was conducted in a large US claims database in men with ≥1 diagnosis of ED without prior MACE within 1 year, from January 1, 2006, to October 31, 2020. The exposed group had ≥1 claim for PDE-5i and the unexposed group had no claims for PDE-5i, and the groups were matched up to 1:4 on baseline risk variables. OUTCOME The primary outcome was MACE and the secondary outcomes were overall mortality and individual components of MACE, determined by multivariable Cox proportional hazard modeling. RESULTS Matched plus multivariable analyses showed that MACE was lower by 13% in men exposed (n = 23 816) to PDE-5is (hazard ratio [HR] 0.87; 95% CI 0.79-0.95; P = .001) vs nonexposure (n = 48 682) over mean follow-up periods of 37 and 29 months, respectively, with lower incidence of coronary revascularization (HR 0.85; 95% CI 0.73-0.98; P = .029), heart failure (HR 0.83; 95% CI 0.72-0.97; P = .016), unstable angina (HR 0.78; 95% CI 0.64-0.96; P = .021), and CV death (HR 0.61; 95% CI 0.41-0.90; P = .014) with PDE-5i exposure. Phosphodiesterase type 5 inhibitor-exposed men had a 25% lower incidence of overall mortality (HR 0.75; 95% CI 0.65-0.87; P < .001). Men without coronary artery disease (CAD) but with CV risk factors at baseline showed a similar pattern. In the main study cohort, men in the highest quartile of PDE-5i exposure had the lowest incidence of MACE (HR 0.45; 95% CI 0.37-0.54; P < .001) and overall mortality (HR 0.51; 95% CI 0.37-0.71; P < .001) vs the lowest exposure quartile. In a subgroup with baseline type 2 diabetes (n = 6503), PDE-5i exposure was associated with a lower MACE risk (HR 0.79; 95% CI 0.64-0.97; P = .022). CLINICAL IMPLICATIONS PDE-5is may have cardioprotective effects. STRENGTHS AND LIMITATIONS Strengths are the large numbers of participants and consistency of the data; limitations include the retrospective nature of the study and unknown confounders. CONCLUSIONS In a large population of US men with ED, PDE-5i exposure was associated with lower incidence of MACE, CV death, and overall mortality risk compared to non-exposure. Risk reduction correlated with PDE-5i exposure level.

Abstract
BACKGROUND: Much of the current research on treatment patterns and use of adjunctive pain and anti-inflammatory medications among patients living with psoriatic arthritis (PsA) predates the approval and uptake of IL (interleukin)-17A inhibitors. OBJECTIVE: To compare real-world treatment patterns and use of adjunctive pain and antiinflammatory medications between patients with PsA initiating the IL-17A inhibitors, ixekizumab and secukinumab, in a US-managed care population. METHODS: We conducted a retrospective cohort study using the HealthCore Integrated Research Database. Patients with a PsA diagnosis who initiated ixekizumab or secukinumab treatment between December 1, 2017, and November 30, 2019, were identified. Two cohorts were created based on which of the 2 medications was initiated (index date), and patients with prior use of either drug were excluded, as were patients with ankylosing spondylitis. Patients had to be continuously enrolled in the health plan for 6 months prior to (baseline) and 12 months after the index date (post-index). Inverse probability of treatment weighting was used to minimize confounding from baseline demographic and clinical differences between cohorts. Treatment patterns (dosing, persistence, discontinuation, and switching) and use of adjunctive pain/anti-inflammatory medications were assessed and compared between weighted cohorts using chi-square and t-tests. RESULTS: In total, 407 patients were identified in the ixekizumab cohort (mean age 51.6 years; 54% female) and 1,508 patients were identified in the secukinumab cohort (mean age 50.1 years; 59% female). Prior to weighting, presence of a psoriasis diagnosis code (ixekizumab: 60% vs secukinumab: 45%; standardized difference [std diff] = -0.30), specialty of the index prescriber (std diff = 0.38), and mean number of prior advanced therapies (2.0 vs 1.5; std diff = -0.33) were different between cohorts. Cohorts were well balanced after weighting. The majority of secukinumab patients (71%) received an index dose of 300 mg. Rates of persistence (ixekizumab: 40% vs secukinumab: 43%; P = 0.411) and switching (25% vs 20%; P = 0.072) were not statistically different between cohorts. Use of new adjunctive pain and anti-inflammatory medications was not statistically different between cohorts either (ixekizumab: 63% vs secukinumab: 58%; P = 0.187). CONCLUSIONS: Real-world treatment patterns and use of adjunctive pain and anti-inflammatory medications were similar in patients with PsA initiating ixekizumab and secukinumab in this US-managed care population. Further research examining reasons for discontinuation, switching, and use of adjunctive medications may help inform treatment decisions for patients living with PsA.

Abstract
Treatment for pulmonary arterial hypertension (PAH) has evolved over the past decade, including approval of new medications and growing evidence to support earlier use of combination therapy. Despite these changes, few studies have assessed real‐world treatment patterns, healthcare resource utilization (HCRU), and costs among people with PAH using recent data. We conducted a retrospective cohort study using administrative claims from the HealthCore Integrated Research Database®. Adult members with claims for a PAH diagnosis, right heart catheterization, and who initiated PAH treatment (index date) between October 1, 2015 and November 30, 2020 were identified. Members had to be continuously enrolled in the health plan for 6 months before the index date (baseline) and ≥30 days after. Treatment patterns, HCRU, and costs were described. A total of 843 members with PAH (mean age 62.3 years, 64.2% female) were included. Only 21.0% of members received combination therapy as their first‐line treatment, while most members (54.6%) received combination therapy as second‐line treatment. All‐cause HCRU remained high after treatment initiation with 58.0% of members having ≥1 hospitalization and 41.3% with ≥1 emergency room visit. Total all‐cause costs declined from $15,117 per patient per month at baseline to $14,201 after treatment initiation, with decreased medical costs ($14,208 vs. $6,349) more than offsetting increased pharmacy costs ($909 vs. $7,852). In summary, despite growing evidence supporting combination therapy, most members with PAH initiated treatment with monotherapy. Total costs decreased following treatment, driven by a reduction in medical costs even with increases in pharmacy costs.

Abstract
Background:
Phosphodiesterase type 5 inhibitor (PDE-5i) medications are effective in treating Erectile Dysfunction (ED) for tens of millions of men in the US and worldwide. The objective of this study was to determine the effect of PDE-5is on the incidence of major adverse cardiovascular events (MACE) (composite outcome of cardiovascular (CV) death, hospitalization for myocardial infarction, coronary revascularization, stroke, heart failure, or unstable angina pectoris) and all-cause death.
Methods:
A retrospective observational cohort study was conducted in a large US commercial and Medicare insurance claims database in men with ≥1 diagnosis of ED without prior MACE hospitalization within 1 year from Jan 2006 to Oct 2020. The exposed group had ≥1 claim for PDE-5i; the unexposed group had no claims for PDE-5i and were matched 2:1 on baseline risk variables. The primary outcome was MACE and secondary outcome was all-cause death, determined by multivariate Cox proportional hazard modeling. Death data were obtained via National Death Index linkage.
Results:
In this population, MACE was reduced by 13% in men exposed (n=23,816) to PDE-5is (hazard ratio (HR) 0.87; 95% Confidence Interval (CI) 0.79-0.95) vs. non-exposure (n=48,682) over mean follow up of 29 and 37 months, respectively. This was driven by reductions in coronary revascularization (HR 0.85; 0.73-0.98), heart failure (HR 0.83; 0.72-0.97), unstable angina (HR 0.78; 0.64-0.96), and CV death (HR 0.61; 0.41-0.90). PDE-5i-exposed men had a 25% reduction in all-cause death (HR 0.75; 0.65-0.87). Men without coronary artery disease but with CV risk factors at baseline showed a similar pattern. In the main study cohort, men in the highest quartile of PDE-5i exposure had the greatest reductions in MACE (HR 0.45; 0.37-0.54) and all-cause death (HR 0.51; 0.37-0.71) vs. the lowest exposure quartile. In a subgroup with baseline type 2 diabetes (n=6,305), PDE-5i exposure was associated with a lower MACE risk (HR 0.79; 0.64-0.97). All comparisons are significant at p<0.05.
Conclusions:
In a large population of US men with ED, PDE-5i exposure was associated with reductions in MACE, CV death, and overall death risk compared to non-exposure. Risk reduction was positively correlated with PDE-5i exposure level.

Abstract
An initial opioid prescription with a greater number of pills is associated with a greater risk for future long-term opioid use, yet few interventions have reliably influenced individual clinicians' prescribing. Our objective was to evaluate the effect of feedback interventions for clinicians in reducing opioid prescribing. The interventions included feedback on a clinician's outlier prescribing (individual audit feedback), peer comparison, and both interventions combined. We conducted a four-arm factorial pragmatic cluster randomized trial at forty-eight emergency department (ED) and urgent care (UC) sites in the western US, including 263 ED and 175 UC clinicians with 294,962 patient encounters. Relative to usual care, there was a significant decrease in pills per prescription both for peer comparison feedback (-0.8) and for the combination of peer comparison and individual audit feedback (-1.2). This decrease was sustained during follow-up. There were no significant changes for individual audit feedback alone, and no interventions changed the proportion of encounters with an opioid prescription.

Abstract
Importance Mailing fecal immunochemical test (FIT) kits to patients' homes has been shown to boost colorectal cancer screening rates, but response rates remain limited, and organized programs typically require repeated outreach attempts. Behavioral economics has shown that offering salient financial incentives to patients may increase participation in preventive health. Objective To compare the impact of different financial incentives for mailed FIT outreach. Design, Setting, and Participants This 4-parallel-arm randomized clinical trial included patients aged 50 to 75 years who had an established primary care clinician, at least 2 visits in the prior 2 years, and were eligible for colorectal cancer screening and not up-to-date. This study was conducted at urban primary care practices at an academic health system from December 2015 to February 2018. Data analysis was conducted from March 2018 to September 2018. Interventions Eligible patients received a letter from their primary care clinician that included a mailed FIT kit and instructions for use. They were randomized in a 1:1:1:1 ratio to receive (1) no financial incentive; (2) an unconditional $10 incentive included with the mailing; (3) a $10 incentive conditional on FIT completion; or (4) a conditional lottery with a 1-in-10 chance of winning $100 after FIT completion. Main Outcomes and Measures Fecal immunochemical test completion within 2 and 6 months of initial outreach. Results A total of 897 participants were randomized, with a median age of 57 years (interquartile range, 52-62 years); 56% were women, and 69% were black. The overall completion rate across all arms was 23.5% at 2 months. The completion rate at 2 months was 26.0% (95% CI, 20.4%-32.3%) in the no incentive arm, 27.2% (95% CI, 21.5%-33.6%) in the unconditional incentive arm, 23.2% (95% CI, 17.9%-29.3%) in the conditional incentive arm, and 17.7% (95% CI, 13.0%-23.3%) in the lottery incentive arm. None of the arms with an incentive were statistically superior to the arm without incentive. The overall FIT completion rate across all arms was 28.9% at 6 months, and there was also no difference by arm. The completion rate at 6 months was 32.7% (95% CI, 26.6%-39.3%) in the no incentive arm, 31.7% (95% CI, 25.7%-38.2%) in the unconditional incentive arm, 26.8% (95% CI, 21.1%-33.1%) in the conditional incentive arm, and 24.3% (95% CI, 18.9%-30.5%) in the lottery incentive arm. Conclusions and Relevance Mailed FIT resulted in high colorectal cancer screening response rates in this population, but different forms of financial incentives of the same expected value ($10) did not incrementally increase FIT completion rates. The incentive value may have been too small or financial incentives may not be effective in this context. Trial Registration ClinicalTrials.gov Identifier: NCT02594150.
