IJERPH, Vol. 19, Pages 3182: Predictive Model and Mortality Risk Score during Admission for Ischaemic Stroke with Conservative Treatment
Conclusions: It is possible to create a predictive model of mortality for patients with ischaemic stroke from which important advances can be made towards optimising the quality and efficiency of care. The model results are available within a few minutes of admission and would provide a valuable complementary resource for the neurologist.

Lasting Impact of an Ephemeral Organ: The Role of the Placenta in Fetal Programming
Recent advances in molecular and imaging technologies, “omics” fields, and data sciences are offering researchers an unprecedented look at the placenta, the master regulator of the fetal environment.© EPA/National Geographic Channel/Alamy Studies of infants conceived during the Dutch “Hunger Winter” provided some of the earliest clues that prenatal stress could affect health much later in life.© Nationaal Archief  © Evan Oto/Science Source In one study, the placental microbiome had a similar taxonomic profile as the oral microbiome, illustrated here by...

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.

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...
