BackgroundPuberty is a biologically and psychologically unstable period, and pubertal changes differ by sex. However, most previous studies on pubertal timing and suicide have focused on girls. This study investigated the association between early spermarche and suicide attempts in boys.MethodsWe analyzed a nationally representative sample of Korean adolescents (The Korea Youth Risk Behavior Web-Based Survey, KYRBS) that included approximately 35,000 boys annually from 2011 to 2015. Pubertal timing in boys was defined by spermarche. Complex sampling logistic regression analyses were performed to evaluate the odds ratios (ORs) for suicide attempts between the early and average spermarche groups.ResultsThe ORs for suicide attempts in boys with early spermarche were significantly higher than those in boys with average spermarche after adjustment for age, perceived stress, depressive symptoms, and suicidal ideation. The ORs from 2011 to 2015 were as follows: 1.782 (P < 0.001), 1.490 (P = 0.002), 1.693 (P < 0.001), 1.541 (P = 0.001), and 1.393 (1.024–1.895; P = 0.035), respectively.ConclusionThese findings suggest that early pubertal timing is a risk factor for suicide attempts in Korean boys after adjustment for depressive symptoms, perceived stress, and suicidal ideation, which have been previously reported as risk factors for suicide attempts. Therefore, careful attention should be paid to the prevention of suicide in boys who experience early spermarche in Korea. 相似文献

BackgroundDeath by suicide is a major public health problem. To provide multidisciplinary support to patients who attempted suicide, emergency department (ED)-based psychiatric screening and intervention programs were offered. We traced the long-term survival outcome of patients visiting the ED after suicide attempts using the national death certificate registration database.MethodsA retrospective observational study was conducted using a database of patients from “Psychiatric Crisis Response Centers” (PCRC) of 27 EDs between January 2013 and August 2015. Patients who visited the ED after attempting suicide were screened and interviewed by social workers from the PCRC. The database was merged with the national death certificate database to trace the death and cause of death of the patients until December 2018. The characteristics and outcomes were compared based on the patient’s compliance with the follow-up case management program.ResultsOf the 12,544 interviewed patients, the data of 9,587 patients were successfully matched with data from the death certificate database. Death by suicide was higher in the noncompliance group (4.5% vs. 12.4%, P < 0.001); however, death caused by factors other than suicide did not differ between groups (4.8% vs. 4.9%, P = 0.906).ConclusionSuicide resulted in a lower long-term mortality rate among patients who complied with the follow-up case management session in the ED-based brief psychiatric intervention and follow-up program. 相似文献

BackgroundThe purpose of study was to investigate the incidence rate of suicide in elderly patients with osteoporotic fractures in a nested case-control model and to analyze the change in the risk of suicide death over time after each osteoporotic fracture.MethodsWe used the National Health Insurance Service-Senior cohort of South Korea. Suicide cases and controls were matched based on sex and age at the index date. Controls were randomly selected at a 1:5 ratio from the set of individuals who were at risk of becoming a case at the time when suicide cases were selected. Conditional logistic regression analysis was performed to evaluate the association between each type of osteoporotic fracture and the risk of suicide death.ResultsThree thousand seventy suicide cases and 15,350 controls were identified. Patients with hip fracture showed an increased risk of suicide death within 1 year of fracture (adjusted odds ratio [aOR] = 2.64; 95% confidence interval [CI], 1.57–4.46; P < 0.001) compared to controls. However, the increased risk of suicide death in patients with hip fracture lasted up to 2 years (aOR = 1.59; 95% CI, 1.04–2.41; P = 0.031). Spine fracture increased the risk of suicide deaths for all observation periods. There was no evidence that humerus fracture increased the risk of suicide death during the observational period. Radius fracture increased only the risk of suicide death within 2 years of fracture (aOR = 1.43; 95% CI, 0.74–2.77; P = 0.282).ConclusionThere were noticeable differences in both degree and duration of increased suicide risks depending on the type of osteoporotic fracture. Mental stress and suicide risk in elderly patients after osteoporotic fracture should be assessed differently depending on the types of fracture. 相似文献

BackgroundThe coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) pandemic may increase the total number of suicide attempts and the proportion of low-rescue attempts. We investigated the factors affecting low-rescue suicide attempts using the risk-rescue rating scale (RRRS) among patients who visited the emergency department (ED) after attempting suicide before or during the COVID-19 pandemic.MethodsWe retrospectively investigated suicide attempts made by patients who visited our ED from March 2019 to September 2020. Patients were classified into two groups based on whether they attempted suicide before or during the COVID-19 pandemic. Data on demographic variables, psychiatric factors, suicide risk factors and rescue factors were collected and compared.ResultsA total of 518 patients were included in the study, 275 (53.1%) of whom attempted suicide during the COVID-19 pandemic. The proportion of patients who made low-rescue suicide attempts differed before and during the COVID-19 pandemic (37.1% vs. 28.8%) (P = 0.046). However, the proportions of patients who made high-risk suicide attempts and high-lethality suicide attempts did not significantly differ between the two periods. The independent risk factors for low-rescue suicide attempts were age and the COVID-19 pandemic (odds ratio [OR], 1.02; 95% confidence interval [CI], 1.00–1.03; P = 0.006) (OR, 1.52; 95% CI, 1.03–2.25; P = 0.034).ConclusionThe COVID-19 pandemic was associated with low-rescue suicide attempts in patients visiting the ED after attempting suicide. Thus, we need to consider the implementation of measures to prevent low-rescue suicide attempts during similar infectious disease crises. 相似文献

PurposeInterleukin (IL)-17A has been suggested to play a role in the growth and organization of thrombi. We examined whether IL-17A plays a role in the early stages of thrombosis and whether there are sex differences in the effects of IL-17A.Materials and MethodsWe performed a blinded, randomized, placebo-controlled study to compare time to thrombotic occlusion and sex differences therein between mice treated with IL-17A and those treated with saline using a ferric chloride-induced model. We also assessed thrombus histology, blood coagulation, and plasma levels of coagulation factors.ResultsTime to occlusion values did not differ between the IL-17A group and the control group (94.6±86.9 sec vs. 121.0±84.4 sec, p=0.238). However, it was significantly shorter in the IL-17A group of female mice (74.6±57.2 sec vs. 130.0±76.2 sec, p=0.032). In rotational thromboelastometry, the IL-17A group exhibited increased maximum clot firmness (71.3±4.5 mm vs. 66.7±4.7 mm, p=0.038) and greater amplitude at 30 min (69.7±5.2 mm vs. 64.5±5.3 mm, p=0.040) than the control group. In Western blotting, the IL-17A group showed higher levels of coagulation factor XIII (2.2±1.5 vs. 1.0±0.9, p=0.008), monocyte chemoattractant protein-1 (1.6±0.6 vs. 1.0±0.4, p=0.023), and tissue factor (1.5±0.6 vs. 1.0±0.5, p=0.003).ConclusionIL-17A plays a role in the initial st ages of arterial thrombosis in mice. Coagulation factors and monocyte chemoattractant protein-1 may be associated with IL-17A-mediated thrombosis. 相似文献

ContextCold-water immersion (CWI) may not be feasible in some remote settings, prompting the identification of alternative cooling methods as adjunct treatment modalities for exertional heat stroke (EHS).ObjectiveTo determine the differences in cooling capacities between CWI and the inhalation of cooled air.DesignRandomized controlled clinical trial.SettingLaboratory.Patients or Other ParticipantsA total of 12 recreationally active participants (7 men, 5 women; age = 26 ± 4 years, height = 170.6 ± 10.1 cm, mass = 76.0 ± 18.0 kg, body fat = 18.5% ± 9.7%, peak oxygen uptake = 42.7 ± 8.9 mL·kg−1·min−1).Intervention(s)After exercise in a hot environment (40°C and 40% relative humidity), participants were randomized to 3 cooling conditions: cooling during passive rest (PASS; control), CWI, and the Polar Breeze thermal rehabilitation machine (PB) with which participants inspired cooled air (22.2°C ± 1.0°C).Main Outcome Measure(s)Rectal temperature (TREC) and heart rate were continuously measured throughout cooling until TREC reached 38.25°C.ResultsCooling rates during CWI (0.18°C·min−1 ± 0.06°C·min−1) were greater than those during PASS (mean difference [95% CI] of 0.16°C·min−1 [0.13°C·min−1, 0.19°C·min−1]; P < .001) and PB (0.15°C·min−1 [0.12°C·min−1, 0.16°C·min−1]; P < .001). Elapsed time to reach a TREC of 38.25°C was also faster with CWI (9.71 ± 3.30 minutes) than PASS (−58.1 minutes [−77.1, −39.9 minutes]; P < .001) and PB (−46.8 minutes [−65.5, −28.2 minutes]; P < .001). Differences in cooling rates and time to reach a TREC of 38.25°C between PASS and PB were not different (P > .05).ConclusionsTranspulmonary cooling via cooled-air inhalation did not promote an optimal cooling rate (>0.15°C·min−1) for the successful treatment of EHS. In remote settings where EHS is a risk, access and use of treatment methods via CWI or cold-water dousing are imperative to ensuring survival.Trial RegistryClinicalTrials.gov (NCT0419026). 相似文献

Background/AimsCurrent evidence suggests that liver cirrhosis (LC) causes severe psychological stress and depression, which are risk factors for suicide. Although previous studies reported the association between LC and suicidal thoughts, little is known of its effect on suicidal deaths. Therefore, this study was undertaken to investigate the effect of new-onset LC on suicide.MethodsFrom the National Health Insurance Service-National Sample Cohort of South Korea, 5,809 incident LC patients and 11,618 risk-set controls matched by propensity score were selected for follow-up. The incidence rate of suicide was estimated using a generalized estimating equation with a Poisson distribution. Effect size was presented as a hazard ratio (HR) using Cox’s proportional hazards model.ResultsThe incidence rate of suicide was 143.3 cases per 100,000 person years (95% confidence interval [CI], 100.2–205.1) among the LC cohort. The LC patients were 2.37 times more likely to commit suicide compared with matched controls (HR, 2.37; 95% CI, 1.44–3.88). Increased suicide risk was evident within the first 2 years of the follow-up period (HR, 2.59; 95% CI, 1.20–5.60) and among the 18–49-year-old age group (HR, 3.72; 95% CI, 1.45–9.56).ConclusionsOur study found increased risk of suicide in patients with new onset LC, especially during the early period following diagnosis and in younger patients. To decrease this suicide risk, a regular and continuous social support system is required. 相似文献

PurposeAs cardiomyopathy is more prevalent and currently the leading cause of death in Duchenne muscular dystrophy (DMD), early detection of myocardial involvement is important. The purpose of this study was to analyze myocardial strain in DMD children, for the possibility of early detection of myocardial dysfunction.ResultsEpicardial longitudinal strain was lower in DMD (DMD: -9.3±3.8%; control: -12.3±4.3%; p=0.012). Radial strain (DMD: 24.1±11.1%; control: 37.3±25.9%; p=0.027) and strain rate (SR) (DMD: 1.68±0.91; control: 2.42±0.84; p=0.006) on parasternal short axis view were lower in DMD. Circumferential strains in the endocardium (DMD: -17.5±4.7%; control: -24.2±5.3%; p<0.001), myocardium (DMD: -12.7±3.8%; control: -18.0±4.0%; p<0.001), and epicardium (DMD: -8.4±4.0%; control: -12.2±5.0%; p=0.006) were significantly decreased in DMD. Circumferential SRs were lower in the endocardial (DMD: -1.46±0.38; control: -1.78±0.27; p=0.002) and myocardial layers (DMD: 1.02±0.27; control: -1.28±0.22; p=0.001).ConclusionIn DMD patients, deteriorations in myocardial circumferential strain might be an indicator for predicting cardiomyopathy. 相似文献

PurposeThe fusion of early (E) and late diastolic filling (A) on mitral inflow Doppler, even in the absence of tachycardia, is often found during assessment of left ventricular (LV) diastolic function. We evaluated the echocardiographic characteristics and clinical implications of premature E-A fusion of uncertain cause in the absence of tachycardia.Materials and MethodsWe identified 1014 subjects who showed E-A fusion and normal LV ejection fraction (LVEF) between January 2019 and June 2021 at two tertiary hospitals. Among these, 105 (10.4%) subjects showed premature E-A fusion at heart rates less than 100 beats per minute (bpm). The conventional echocardiographic parameters and LV global longitudinal strain (GLS) were compared with 1:1 age-, sex-, and heart rate-matched controls without E-A fusion.ResultsThe premature E-A fusion group had a heart rate of 96.4±3.7 bpm. Only 4 (3.8%) subjects were classified as having LV diastolic dysfunction according to current guidelines. The group showed prolonged isovolumic relaxation time (107.2±25.3 msec vs. 61.6±15.6 msec, p<0.001), increased Tei index (0.76±0.19 vs. 0.48±0.10, p<0.001), lower LVEF (63.8±7.0% vs. 67.3±5.6%, p<0.001) and lower absolute LV GLS (|LV GLS|) (17.0±4.2% vs. 19.7±3.3%, p<0.001) than controls. As the E-A fusion occurred at lower heart rate, the |LV GLS| was also lower (p for trend=0.002).ConclusionPremature E-A fusion at heart rates less than 100 bpm is associated with subclinical LV dysfunction. Time-based indices and LV GLS are helpful for evaluating this easily overlooked population. 相似文献

BackgroundThe objective of this study was to investigate the trend of self-injurious behavior (SIB) among persons who were directly impacted by coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19), especially those with pre-existing mental disorders.MethodsUsing the National Health Insurance Service-COVID-19 database cohort, the monthly SIB rate was calculated by COVID-19 subgroups (i.e., positive for COVID-19 test, negative for COVID-19 test, and non-COVID-19 test [control]). In addition, moderated regression analysis was utilized to examine the statistical difference of SIB (suicide attempt and non-suicidal self-injury using ICD-10 code) trend between COVID-19 subgroups and with and without pre-existing mental disorder.ResultsA total of 328,373 persons were included in the cohort study. Of these, 212,678 had been tested for COVID-19, and 7,713 of them were confirmed positive. During the pandemic peak, the “negative for COVID-19” group showed a large increase (P = 0.003) in SIB rates compared to the control group, the “positive for COVID-19” group showed a decreasing trend, but not significant (P = 0.314). Among those who were tested for COVID-19, those with pre-existing mental disorders showed an increasing trend of SIB compared to those without pre-existing mental disorders, however statistically insignificant (P = 0.137).ConclusionOur results suggest that people who are tested for COVID-19 are at a high risk of SIB during the peak COVID-19 pandemic. Therefore, screening for suicide risk and psychological interventions is needed for these high-risk groups. 相似文献

PurposeThe biplanar whole body imaging system (EOS) is a new tool for measuring the whole body sagittal alignment in a limited space. This tool may affect the sagittal balance of patients compared to conventional whole spine X-ray (WSX). This study aimed to investigate the difference in sagittal alignment between WSX and EOS.Materials and MethodsWe compared the spinal and pelvic sagittal parameters in 80 patients who underwent EOS and WSX within one month between July 2018 and September 2019. The patients were divided based on sagittally balanced and imbalanced groups according to pelvic tilt (PT) >20°, pelvic incidence-lumbar lordosis >10°, C7-sagittal vertical axis (SVA) >50 mm in WSX.ResultsIn the sagittally imbalanced group, compared to WSX, the pelvic parameters demonstrated compensation in EOS with smaller PT (27.4±11.6° vs. 24.9±10.9°, p=0.003) and greater sacral slope (SS), and the patients tended to stand more upright with smaller C7-SVA (58.4±17.0 mm vs. 48.9±57.3 mm, p=0.018), T1-pelvic angle (TPA), T5-T12, and T2-T12. However, in the sagittally balanced group, these differences were less pronounced only with smaller PT (10.8±6.9° vs. 9.4±4.7°, p=0.040), TPA and T2-T12 angle, but with similar SS and C7-SVA (p>0.05).ConclusionEOS showed a negative SVA shift and lesser PT compared to WSX, especially in patients with sagittal imbalance. When preparing a surgical plan, surgeons should consider these differences between EOS and WSX. 相似文献

Objective
We wished to examine whether resilience might be a protective factor in relation to suicidal behavior.Method
To do this resilience was examined in relation to childhood trauma, a well established risk factor for suicidal behavior, in two samples. In a preliminary sample 20 abstinent substance abuse patients who had attempted suicide were matched for age and their score on the Childhood Trauma Questionnaire (CTQ) with 20 substance abuse patients who had never attempted suicide. The two age and CTQ matched attempter (N = 20) and non-attempter (N = 20) groups were then compared for their scores on the Connor-Davidson Resilience Scale (CD-RISC). In the second sample 166 prisoners who had attempted suicide were matched for age and their scores on the CTQ with 166 prisoners who had never attempted suicide. These two age and CTQ matched attempter (N = 166)and non-attempter (N = 166) groups were similarly compared for their CD-RISC resilience scores.Results
In the preliminary substance abuse sample, patients who had never attempted suicide (N = 20) had significantly higher mean CD-RISC resilience scores than the age and CTQ matched patients who had attempted suicide (N = 20). Similarly in the prisoner sample, those who had never attempted suicide (N = 166) had significantly higher CD-RISC resilience scores than the age and CTQ matched prisoners who had attempted suicide (N = 166).Conclusions
The results from these two studies suggest that resilience may be a protective factor mitigating the risk of suicidal behavior associated with childhood trauma. 相似文献13.

BackgroundThe healthcare workers (HCWs) were exposed to never-experienced psychological distress during the early stage of the coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) pandemic. The aim of this study was to investigate how the COVID-19 pandemic affected the mental health of HCWs during the hospital lockdown period due to mass healthcare-associated infection during the early spread of COVID-19.MethodsA real-time online survey was conducted between April 14–18, 2020 among HCWs who worked at the university hospital where COVID-19 was confirmed in a patient, and the hospital was shut down for 3 weeks. Along with demographic variables and work-related information, psychological distress was measured using the Generalized Anxiety Disorder-7 (GAD-7), the Patient Health Questionnaire-9 (PHQ-9), the Maslach Burnout Inventory-General Survey scale, and the Stress and Anxiety to Viral Epidemics-9.ResultsThe HCWs working in the cohort ward and those who have experienced social discrimination had significantly higher level of depression (PHQ-9 score; 5.24 ± 4.48 vs. 4.15 ± 4.38; P < 0.01 and 5.89 ± 4.78 vs. 3.25 ± 3.77; P < 0.001, respectively) and anxiety (GAD-7 score; 3.69 ± 3.68 vs. 2.87 ± 3.73; P < 0.05 and 4.20 ± 4.22 vs. 2.17 ± 3.06; P < 0.001, respectively) compared to other HCWs. Worries regarding the peer relationship and the skepticism about job were associated with depression (odds ratio [OR], 1.39; 95% confidence interval [CI], 1.07–1.79; P < 0.05 and OR, 1.69; 95% CI, 1.31–2.17; P < 0.001, respectively) and anxiety (OR, 1.73; 95% CI, 1.21–2.49; P < 0.01 and OR, 1.54; 95% CI, 1.09–2.17; P < 0.05, respectively), while fear of infection or worsening of health was not. Path analysis showed that work-related stress associated with the viral epidemic rather than anxiety about the viral epidemic mainly contributed to depression.ConclusionThe present observational study indicates that mental health problems of HCWs exposed to COVID-19 are associated with distress in work and social relationship. Early intervention programs focusing on these factors are necessary. 相似文献

ContextHypohydration has been shown to alter neuromuscular function. However, the longevity of these impairments remains unclear.ObjectiveTo examine the effects of graded exercise-induced dehydration on neuromuscular control 24 hours after exercise-induced hypohydration.DesignCrossover study.SettingLaboratory.Patients or Other ParticipantsA total of 23 men (age = 21 ± 2 years, height = 179.8 ± 6.4 cm, mass = 75.24 ± 7.93 kg, maximal oxygen uptake [VO2max] = 51.7 ± 5.5 mL·kg−1·min−1, body fat = 14.2% ± 4.6%).Intervention(s)Participants completed 3 randomized exercise trials: euhydrated arrival plus fluid replacement (EUR), euhydrated arrival plus no fluid (EUD), and hypohydrated arrival plus no fluid (HYD) in hot conditions (ambient temperature = 35.2°C ± 0.6°C, relative humidity = 31.3% ± 2.5%). Each trial consisted of 180 minutes of exercise (six 30-minute cycles: 8 minutes at 40% VO2max; 8 minutes, 60% VO2max; 8 minutes, 40% VO2max; 6 minutes, passive rest) followed by 60 minutes of passive recovery.Main Outcome Measure(s)We used the Landing Error Scoring System and Balance Error Scoring System (BESS) to measure movement technique and postural control at pre-exercise, postexercise and passive rest (POSTEX), and 24 hours postexercise (POST24). Differences were assessed using separate mixed-design (trial × time) repeated-measures analyses of variance.ResultsThe magnitude of hypohydration at POSTEX was different among EUR, EUD, and HYD trials (0.2% ± 1%, 3.5% ± 1%, and 5% ± 0.9%, respectively; P < .05). We observed no differences in Landing Error Scoring System scores at pre-exercise (2.9 ± 1.6, 3.0 ± 2.1, 3.0 ± 2.0), POSTEX (3.3 ± 1.5, 3.0 ± 2.0, 3.1 ± 1.9), or POST24 (3.3 ± 1.9, 3.2 ± 1.4, 3.3 ± 1.6) among the EUD, EUR, and HYD trials, respectively (P = .90). Hydration status did not affect BESS scores (P = .11), but BESS scores at POSTEX (10.4 ± 1.1) were greater than at POST24 (7.7 ± 0.9; P = .03).ConclusionsWhereas exercise-induced dehydration up to 5% body mass did not impair movement technique or postural control 24 hours after a prolonged bout of exercise in a hot environment, postural control was impaired at 60 minutes after prolonged exercise in the heat. Consideration of the length of recovery time between bouts of exercise in hot environments is warranted. 相似文献

OBJECTIVE:To assess the influence of central obesity on the magnitude of the error of estimate of maximal oxygen uptake in maximal cycling exercise testing.METHOD:A total of 1,715 adults (68% men) between 18-91 years of age underwent cardiopulmonary exercise testing using a progressive protocol to volitional fatigue. Subjects were stratified by central obesity into three quartile ranges: Q1, Q2-3 and Q4. Maximal oxygen uptake [mL.(kg.min)-1] was estimated by the attained maximal workload and body weight using gender- and population-specific equations. The error of estimate [mL.(kg.min)-1] and percent error between measured and estimated maximal oxygen uptake values were compared among obesity quartile ranges.RESULTS:The error of estimate and percent error differed (mean ± SD) for men (Q1=1.3±3.7 and 2.0±10.4; Q2-3=0.5±3.1 and -0.5±13.0; and Q4=-0.3±2.8 and -4.5±15.8 (p<0.05)) and for women (Q1=1.6±3.3 and 3.6±10.2; Q2-3=0.4±2.7 and -0.4±11.8; and Q4=-0.9±2.3 and -10.0±22.7 (p<0.05)).CONCLUSION:Central obesity directly influences the magnitude of the error of estimate of maximal oxygen uptake and should be considered when direct expired gas analysis is unavailable. 相似文献

Study ObjectivesThe relationship between insomnia and suicide risk is not completely understood. We aimed to investigate the influence of insomnia on suicide risk, taking both sleep duration and depression into consideration.MethodsThe present study is based on a Swedish prospective cohort study of 38,786 participants with a mean follow-up time of 19.2 years. Cox proportional hazards models with attained age as time-scale were used to estimate hazard ratios (HRs) of death by suicide with 95% confidence intervals (CI) for participants categorized by frequency of insomnia symptoms. Causal mediation analysis was performed to assess to what extent the relationship between insomnia and suicide risk is mediated by depression.ResultsInsomnia was only associated with suicide risk among short sleepers, whereas no significant association was observed among those who slept 7 h/night or more. The total effect of insomnia in the context of short sleep on suicide risk, expressed on the HR scale, was 2.85 (95% CI 1.42–5.74). The direct effect was 2.25 (95% CI 1.12–4.54) and the indirect effect, mediated by depression, was 1.27 (95% CI 1.05–1.53). Of the total effect, 32% was mediated by depression. The association between insomnia and suicide risk became more pronounced with decreasing depressive symptoms (p value for trend <0.05).ConclusionsInsomnia in the context of short sleep increases suicide risk, both directly and indirectly by affecting the risk of depression. Abnormalities of sleep duration and insomnia symptoms should be evaluated when assessing suicide risk. 相似文献

IntroductionDespite the abundance of data addressing the influence of patient''s age on surgery-related complications, its impact on cardiometabolic outcomes following bariatric surgery has been overlooked.MethodsRetrospective unicentric study of 1,728 obese patients who underwent bariatric surgery between January 2010 and June 2015. Patients were divided in 3 age groups, according to their age at surgery: ˂40 (n = 751), 40–59 (n = 879), and ≥60 years (n = 98). Parameters with cardiometabolic impact, such as body anthropometric measures, lipid profile, and glycemic status, before and 24 months after surgery, were compared between these groups. A multiple linear regression was performed, adjusting differences between groups for sex, surgery type, and body mass index variation.ResultsThe group ˂40 years presented more weight loss (−35.4 ± 9.0 kg, p ˂ 0.001), greater BMI reduction (−15.8 ± 6.1 kg/m<sup>2</sup>, p ˂ 0.001), and larger changes in waist (−34 ± 13.8 cm, p ˂ 0.001) and hip circumferences (−28.7 ± 11.9 cm, p ˂ 0.05). The group of ≥60 years presented the heaviest reduction in fasting glucose (−17.7 ± 32.8 mg/dL, p ˂ 0.001) and HbA1c (0.7 ± 1.0, p ˂ 0.001), and also had a tendency to have the biggest changes in systolic blood pressure (−14.7 ± 18.7 mm Hg, p = 0.071).ConclusionPatients with ≥60 years benefit the most from bariatric surgery regarding cardiometabolic parameters, presenting heavier reductions in fasting glucose, as well as HbA1c and a tendency towards a higher decrease in systolic blood pressure. No clinically significant differences in lipid profile were observed between groups. 相似文献

IntroductionWeight loss in old age increases the risk of sarcopenia caused by the age-related reduction of fat-free mass (FFM). Due to the strong correlation between FFM and resting energy expenditure (REE), the maintenance of this must also be considered. Besides, the physical function (PF) must be maintained.ObjectiveThe impact of protein intake on changes in FFM, REE, and PF during weight loss in overweight postmenopausal women was investigated.MethodsFifty-four postmenopausal women (BMI 30.9 ± 3.4; age 59 ± 7 years) were randomized into 2 groups receiving energy-restricted diets with either 0.8 g (normal protein; NP) or 1.5 g protein/kg body weight (high protein; HP) for 12 weeks, followed by a 6-month follow-up phase with an ad libitum food intake. FFM, REE, and PF (strength, endurance, and balance) were measured at baseline, after weight loss, and after follow-up.ResultsForty-six women completed the weight loss intervention and 29 were followed up. The weight loss was −4.6 ± 3.6 kg (HP) and −5.2 ± 3.4 kg (NP; both p < 0.001) and the weight regain during follow-up was 1.3 ± 2.8 kg (HP; p = 0.03) and 0.4 ± 2.5 kg (NP; p = 0.39), with no differences between groups. Similar decreases in FFM (−0.9 ± 1.1 [HP] vs. −1.0 ± 1.3 kg [NP]) and REE (−862 ± 569 [HP] vs. −1,000 ± 561 kJ [NP]; both p < 0.001) were observed in both groups. During follow-up, no changes in FFM were detected in either group, whereas in the NP group the REE increased again (+138 ± 296; p = 0.02). The main determinants of FFM loss were the energy deficit and the speed of weight loss. In the NP group, the Short Physical Performance Battery score improved with weight loss (+0.6 ± 0.8; p < 0.001) and handgrip strength decreased (−1.7 ± 3.4 kg; p < 0.001), whereas no changes were observed in the HP group.ConclusionsAn HP weight-loss diet without exercise had no impact on preservation of FFM and REE but may help to maintain muscle strength in postmenopausal women. 相似文献

PurposeTo compare the effectiveness of toric foldable iris-fixated phakic intraocular lens (pIOL) implantation and non-toric foldable iris-fixated pIOL implantation with limbal relaxing incisions (LRIs) for correcting moderate-to-high astigmatism in myopic eyes.ResultsThe uncorrected distance visual acuity was at least 20/25 in 100% and 98% of the toric and LRI group eyes, respectively. The toric group had lower mean residual cylindrical error (-0.67±0.39 D vs. -1.14±0.56 D; p<0.001) and greater mean cylindrical error change (2.17±0.56 D vs. 1.63±0.72 D; p<0.001) than the LRI group, regardless of the preoperative astigmatic severity. The mean correction index (1.10±0.16 vs. 0.72±0.24; p<0.001) and success index (0.24±0.14 vs. 0.42±0.21; p<0.001) also differed significantly between the groups.ConclusionBoth surgical techniques considerably reduced astigmatism and had comparable visual outcomes. However, toric foldable iris-fixated pIOL implantation was more reliable for correcting moderate-to-high astigmatism in myopic eyes. 相似文献

The early bactericidal activity of antituberculosis agents is usually determined by measuring the reduction of the sputum mycobacterial load over time on solid agar medium or in liquid culture. This study investigated the value of a quantitative PCR assay for early bactericidal activity determination. Groups of 15 patients were treated with 6 different antituberculosis agents or regimens. Patients collected sputum for 16 h overnight at baseline and at days 7 and 14 after treatment initiation. We determined the sputum bacterial load by CFU counting (log CFU/ml sputum, reported as mean ± standard deviation [SD]), time to culture positivity (TTP, in hours [mean ± SD]) in liquid culture, and Xpert MTB/RIF cycle thresholds (CT, n [mean ± SD]). The ability to discriminate treatment effects between groups was analyzed with one-way analysis of variance (ANOVA). All measurements showed a decrease in bacterial load from mean baseline (log CFU, 5.72 ± 1.00; TTP, 116.0 ± 47.6; CT, 19.3 ± 3.88) to day 7 (log CFU, −0.26 ± 1.23, P = 0.2112; TTP, 35.5 ± 59.3, P = 0.0002; CT, 0.55 ± 3.07, P = 0.6030) and day 14 (log CFU, −0.55 ± 1.24, P = 0.0006; TTP, 54.8 ± 86.8, P < 0.0001; CT, 2.06 ± 4.37, P = 0.0020). The best discrimination between group effects was found with TTP at day 7 and day 14 (F = 9.012, P < 0.0001, and F = 11.580, P < 0.0001), followed by log CFU (F = 4.135, P = 0.0024, and F = 7.277, P < 0.0001). CT was not significantly discriminative (F = 1.995, P = 0.091, and F = 1.203, P = 0.316, respectively). Culture-based methods are superior to PCR for the quantification of early antituberculosis treatment effects in sputum. 相似文献
