Methods: Between September 2013 and February 2018, patients who underwent endovascular intervention due to penetrating, blunt and iatrogenic arterial traumas were analyzed, retrospectively. Demographic data, trauma site, mechanism of injury, angiographic findings or arterial injury patterns, treatment methods, and outcomes were recorded. Results: A total of 30 patients were included. The mean age of patients was 39 years (range: 15-87 years). Arterial trauma locations were in the compressible area with a rate of 43% (n=13) and in the noncompressed area with a rate of 57% (n=17). Mechanisms of injuries were blunt [53% (n=16)], penetrating [17% (n=5)], and iatrogenic [30% (n=9)]. The most common indication for endovascular treatment was blunt noncompressible injury (n=12). Methods used for treatment were stent-graft (46%, n=14) and coil embolization (54%, n=16). Immediate success was obtained in all procedures. The mean follow-up duration was 5 months (range: 1-12 months). Conclusions: Endovascular treatments performed in traumatic arterial emergencies are effective and minimally invasive with very low complication rates even in hemodynamically unstable patients.","PeriodicalId":45984,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Acute Disease","volume":"10 1","pages":"233 - 241"},"PeriodicalIF":0.5,"publicationDate":"2021-11-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"44828015","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Methods: A retrospective observational study was conducted of patients who were hospitalized from May 2020 to January 2021.

Results: A total of 24 000 patients were admitted during the study period, among which 17 000 had shown positive results of the RT-PCR test for COVID-19. The total mortality was 329 patients (1.37%), among which 232 (70.52%) succumbed due to COVID-19, and 97 (29.48%) died due to other illnesses. The mean age of the patients was (64.09±16.99) years.

Methods: This retrospective study was conducted at Shaukat Khanum Memorial Cancer Hospital and Research Centre (SKMCH&RC) from 1st January 2017 till 31st January 2020. Data like demographics, histopathology, functional and survival outcomes were retrieved from the Hospital Information System. Musculoskeletal Tumor Society (MSTS) score was used to evaluate the functional outcomes after the surgery. For survival analyses, Kaplan-Meier curve was applied. Prosthesis joint infection, amputation rate, metastasis, mortality rate, and recurrence were also recorded. Results: This study included 43 patients who underwent limb salvage surgery with endoprosthesis reconstruction at SKMCH&RC. The mean age at the time of diagnosis was (26.5±15.8) years. Patients with distal femoral replacement had the highest MSTS scores (81.45±9.70) while those with proximal humerus replacement has the lowest MSTS scores (56.8±11.2). There was a strong association between site of tumor and MSTS (F=3.30, P=0.017). We also found a correlation between surgical site infection and MSTS scores (r=0.484, P=0.001). Patients with recurrence also had significantly lower MSTS scores (P<0.05). The cumulative survival rate at the end of two-year follow-up was (71.4±17.1)% in proximal femur tumor patients, (88.0±7.8)% in distal femur tumor patients, and (50.0±3.5)% in proximal humerus tumor patients. Besides, patients with Ewing sarcoma had the highest survival rate (97.5±11.0)% while patients with chondrosarcoma had the lowest survival rate (77.8±13.9)%.

Methods: A prospective study was conducted on chest pain patients from January to December 2019. All adult patients with non-traumatic chest pain presenting to the emergency department were included, and their HEART and TIMI scores were evaluated. The patients were followed up within 4 weeks for monitoring any major adverse cardiac events or death. The receiver-operating characteristics (ROC) curve was used to determine the value of HEART and TIMI scores in predicting MACEs. Besides, the specificity, sensitivity, positive predictive value (PPV), and negative predictive value (NPV) of the two scores were assessed and compared. Results: A total of 350 patients were evaluated [mean age (55.03±16.6) years, 56.6% of males]. HEART score had the highest predictive value of MACEs with an area under the curve (AUC) of 0.98, followed by the TIMI score with an AUC of 0.92.
