Identifying specific subgroups of older patients at risk of repeated hospital readmissions and death after discharge in a prospective multicentre cohort in France by Jean-Baptiste Beuscart, Fabien Visade, Genia Babykina, Jesus Carretero-Bravo, Guillaume Deschasse, Vincent Vandewalle

“…Objective To identify specific subgroups of older patients at risk of repeated hospital readmissions and death.Design Prospective, multicentre, DAMAGE (Patient Outcomes After Hospitalization in Acute Geriatric Unit) cohort of adults aged 75 and over, discharged from an acute geriatric unit (AGU) and followed up for 12 months.Setting Six recruiting hospital centres in the Hauts-de-France and Normandie regions of France.Main outcome measures We performed a latent class analysis to identify subgroups at risk of repeated hospital readmissions and death, followed by a logistic regression analysis to determine the characteristics associated with the identified subgroups.Results 3081 patients were included (mean (SD) age: 86.4 (5.5)) and two subgroups were identified. …”

Rahim, Alyssa N. Coyne, Leonard Petrucelli, Jason Rihel, Adrian M. Isaacs

“…Abstract The most common genetic cause of frontotemporal dementia (FTD) and amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) is an intronic G4C2 repeat expansion in C9orf72. The repeats undergo bidirectional transcription to produce sense and antisense repeat RNA species, which are translated into dipeptide repeat proteins (DPRs). …”

Anatomical and physiological features of the right heart affecting the effectiveness of balloon valvuloplasty and increase the risk of repeated interventions in children with valvular pulmonary artery stenosis by Yu.L. Kuzmenko, A.A. Dovhaliuk, M.P. Radchenko, O.О. Motrechko

“…During 5 years of follow-up, 87.8 % of newborns and 88.5 % of children between 29 days and 1 year did not require repeat surgery. The presence of dysplastic changes in the valve of the pulmonary artery (thickening of the valves and asymmetry of the sinuses) increases the likelihood of a need for repeated surgical intervention on the right ventricular tract. …”
