New Janssen Initiative Aims to Advance Equitable Care and Address Hidden Threat of Amputation Related to Peripheral Artery Disease (PAD)
TITUSVILLE, N.J., March 31, 2022 – The Janssen Pharmaceutical Companies of Johnson & Johnson today announced the launch of Save Legs. Change Lives.™ Spot Peripheral Artery Disease Now, a multi-year initiative aimed at creating urgency and action to address the hidden threat of peripheral artery disease (PAD)-related amputation, with an initial focus on reaching Black Americans, who are more than twice as likely to be impacted by PAD.1 Janssen has joined forces with leading professional associations, healthcare systems and community organizations to advance equitable care for individuals and communities placed at an...

P53 ESMINT/EYMINT E-fellowship - experiences from two seasons and implications for future neurointerventional tele-observerships
ConclusionsTele-observerships may facilitate location-independent training of complex neurointerventional procedures through high levels of situational awareness. Future programs will have to incorporate individual training schedules to enable fellows to better attend complex elective procedures.ReferencesBechstein M, Elsheikh S, Wodarg F, et al.

Neurological Effects of Monkeypox Largely Unknown, Review Finds
Much remains unknown about the long-term neurologic effects of monkeypox. In anarticle published today inJAMA Neurology, researchers from the National Institute of Neurological Disorders and Stroke (NINDS) and colleagues described how reports of complications from other orthopoxviruses, such as smallpox, may offer clues about the neurologic consequences of monkeypox.“Although the COVID-19 pandemic is the worst pandemic in a century, the recent past has seen several major pandemics, including Zika, Ebola, dengue, West Nile, and AIDS,” wrote B. Jeanne Billioux, M.D., of NINDS and colleagues. “A common thread to these p...

IJERPH, Vol. 19, Pages 12059: Determinants of COVID-19 Outcome as Predictors of Delayed Healthcare Services among Adults & ge;50 Years during the Pandemic: 2006 & ndash;2020 Health and Retirement Study
Conclusion: Among older adults, sex, education and depressive symptoms are key predictors of delayed healthcare services attributed to the COVID-19 pandemic. Delays in surgical and non-surgical healthcare services may have distinct predictors, with non-surgical delays more frequently observed among individuals with a history of 1 or 2 cardiovascular and/or metabolic conditions.

Sensors, Vol. 22, Pages 8615: A Catalogue of Machine Learning Algorithms for Healthcare Risk Predictions
is Kyriazis
Extracting useful knowledge from proper data analysis is a very challenging task for efficient and timely decision-making. To achieve this, there exist a plethora of machine learning (ML) algorithms, while, especially in healthcare, this complexity increases due to the domain’s requirements for analytics-based risk predictions. This manuscript proposes a data analysis mechanism experimented in diverse healthcare scenarios, towards constructing a catalogue of the most efficient ML algorithms to be used depending on the healthcare scenario’s requirements and datasets, for efficient...

On prioritising global health ' s triple crisis of sepsis, COVID-19 and antimicrobial resistance: a mixed-methods study from Malawi.
Conclusion Our analysis revealed strong relationships between in-hospital mortality and hospital case volume in hospitals treating a small number of cases. The nonlinearity and nonm onotonicity of the estimated relationships indicate that studies applying conventional statistical approaches like logistic regression should consider these relationships adequately.

Not to be sneezed at: cardiovascular disease after COVID-19 infection
COVID-19 has changed our way of life since it was first identified in December of 2019. While our understanding of the manifestations and outcomes of the immediate acute illness has improved, we are still learning about the medium to long-term impact of this diagnosis on patients’ health. For some time, it has been suggested that COVID-19 may be associated with incident cardiovascular events such as venous thromboembolism, stroke and myocardial infarction.1 However, the absolute risk of these events and whether an excess risk is present are challenging to determine without a contemporary reference population. This is...

The U.S. Still Doesn ’ t Have Good COVID-19 Data. Here ’ s Why That ’ s a Problem
Check the COVID-19 Data Tracker from the U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), and you’ll get a rundown of the latest case numbers, hospitalizations, and deaths. Those categories might seem straightforward, but the data, say many experts, are telling us a lot less than we think they are.
That’s because it’s getting increasingly difficult to parse who is hospitalized or dies from COVID-19, and who is hospitalized or dies from another reason but with COVID-19. Across the U.S., “COVID-19 hospitalizations” represent all kinds of patients: those who need hospital-level care for sev...

Modeling of COVID ‐19 death rate using various air pollutants: A multiple linear regression approach
AbstractAir pollution is a significant health risk, especially for vulnerable populations such as children, people with chronic illnesses, the elderly, and the economically and socially disadvantaged. Furthermore, air pollution has enormous social costs that we all bear in the form of premature deaths, low productivity, sick leave, and other strains on the healthcare system. The primary sources of air pollution are traffic, home fires, and industry. Measuring NO2 levels in air pollution reveals the extent of pollution caused by traffic, particularly diesel vehicles, which are the primary source of NO2. COVID-19 rates are r...

COVID-19 ’ s Impact on Heart Health Still Confounds Doctors
(ST. LOUIS) — Firefighter and paramedic Mike Camilleri once had no trouble hauling heavy gear up ladders. Now battling long COVID, he gingerly steps onto a treadmill to learn how his heart handles a simple walk.
“This is, like, not a tough-guy test so don’t fake it,” warned Beth Hughes, a physical therapist at Washington University in St. Louis.

Somehow, a mild case of COVID-19 set off a chain reaction that eventually left Camilleri with dangerous blood pressure spikes, a heartbeat that raced with slight exertion, and episodes of intense chest pain...
