Objectives

To evaluate the relation between wheelchair breakdowns, their immediate consequences, and secondary health complications after spinal cord injury. “Immediate consequences” occur when part of a wheelchair breaks and leaves an individual stranded or injured, or causes him or her to miss medical appointments, work, or school.

Design

Survey, cross-sectional.

Setting

Spinal Cord Injury Model Systems Centers.

Participants

Full-time wheelchair users (N=771) with SCI from 9 Spinal Cord Injury Model Systems Centers, with data collected between 2011 and 2016.

Interventions

Not applicable.

Main Outcome Measures

Incidence of self-reported wheelchair breakdowns within the past 6 months that did or did not result in immediate consequences (ie, injury, being stranded, missing a medical appointment, or an inability to attend school/work); self-perceived health status scale; pain severity numerical rating scale; rehospitalizations; and self-reported pressure injury development within the past 12 months.

Results

A total of 610 participants with complete data sets were included in the analyses. When compared to those who reported no breakdowns, participants who reported 1 or more immediate consequences had worse secondary complications: higher self-perceived health status and pain scores (partial ?η2=.009-.012, P<.05), and higher odds of rehospitalization (odds ratio: 1.86, P<.05) and pressure injury development (odds ratio: 1.73, P<.05). Secondary health complications were not different in those who reported no immediate consequences compared to those who reported no breakdown.

Conclusions

Wheelchair breakdowns that resulted in injury, being stranded, missing medical appointments, and/or an inability to attend work/school appear to have far-reaching impacts on health and secondary injury. Preventing wheelchair breakdowns, through either better maintenance or manufacturing, may be a means of decreasing secondary disability.  相似文献

Objective

To analyze the relation between platelet counts, intensities of physical therapy (PT) and occupational therapy (OT) services received, and frequencies of bleeding complications in children undergoing hematopoietic stem cell transplant (HSCT) during a period of severe thrombocytopenia.

Design

Retrospective review study.

Setting

Tertiary care hospital.

Participants

Children (N=63; age, <18y) hospitalized for HSCT in 2010 and 2011 who received PT and OT services while markedly thrombocytopenic (platelet count, ≤50K/mcL).

Interventions

Not applicable.

Main Outcome Measures

Intensities of PT and OT interventions, patients' platelet counts on specific therapy days, and any bleeding events (minor or major) that occurred during or shortly after rehabilitation interventions.

Results

Sixty-two patients (accounting for 63 HSCTs) met the criteria for analysis. Fifty-six of these patients (57 HSCTs) underwent PT and/or OT while markedly thrombocytopenic. There was no correlation between platelet counts and intensities of rehabilitation interventions. There were no major bleeding events. There was no association between minor bleeding events and intensities of PT or OT interventions and no association between minor bleeding events and platelet counts. Only 5 minor bleeding events occurred during or after moderate or intensive therapy out of 346 PT and OT sessions (1.5%).

Conclusions

The results of our study suggest that bleeding complications during or after mobilization and supervised exercise during PT and OT in children with severe thrombocytopenia undergoing HSCT are minor and relatively rare. These are encouraging results for both patients and rehabilitation specialists treating this population who is at high risk of developing immobility-related complications.  相似文献

Objective

To identify preoperative risk factors associated with posthospitalization falls over an approximate 2-year postoperative period in patients undergoing both hip and knee arthroplasty.

Design

A longitudinal cohort design.

Setting

Communities surrounding 4 urban university–based medical centers.

Participants

Adults (N = 596) with hip or knee arthroplasty over a 9-year period and followed yearly.

Interventions

Not applicable.

Main Outcome Measures

The primary outcome measure was a self-reported history of falls over the 2-year postoperative period. A fall was recorded when the participant reported landing on the floor or ground. Preoperative predictors of falls derived from previous evidence included preoperative fall history, depressive symptom severity, narcotic use, age, activity level, and comorbidity. Multinomial regression analysis was performed to determine factors that predicted either a single fall or multiple falls during a 2-year postoperative period.

Results

Preoperative predictors of multiple postoperative falls were a preoperative history of falls, depressive symptoms, and hip vs knee arthroplasty. Patients with hip arthroplasty were more than twice as likely (odds ratio, 2.26; 95% confidence interval, 1.21–4.20) as patients with knee arthroplasty to have multiple self-reported falls in the first 2 postoperative years. No predictors were found for persons who reported falling only once postoperatively. Findings were generally supported in a sensitivity analysis.

Conclusions

Clinicians involved in the pre- and postoperative care of persons undergoing hip or knee arthroplasty can use these findings to inform fall risk screening and intervention delivery to reduce fall risk in patients who are at risk for multiple falls after hip or knee arthroplasty.  相似文献

Objective

This study evaluated the relationship between physiological and perceived fall risk in people with multiple sclerosis (MS).

Design

Secondary analysis of data from prospective cohort studies undertaken in Australia, the United Kingdom, and the United States.

Setting

Community.

Participants

Ambulatory people with MS (N=416) (age 51.5±12.0 years; 73% female; 62% relapsing-remitting MS; 13.7±9.9 years disease duration).

Interventions

Not applicable.

Main Outcome Measures

All participants completed measures of physiological (Physiological Profile Assessment [PPA]) and perceived (Falls Efficacy Scale-international [FESi]) fall risk and prospectively recorded falls for 3 months.

Results

155 (37%) of the participants were recurrent fallers (≥2 falls). Mean PPA and FESi scores were high (PPA 2.14±1.87, FESi 34.27±11.18). The PPA and the FESi independently predicted faller classification in logistic regression, which indicated that the odds of being classified as a recurrent faller significantly increased with increasing scores (PPA odds ratio [OR] 1.30 [95% CI 1.17-1.46], FESi OR 1.05 [95% CI 1.03-1.07]). Classification and regression tree analysis divided the sample into four groups based on cutoff values for the PPA: (1) low physiological/low perceived risk (PPA <2.83, FESi <27.5), (2) low physiological/high perceived risk (PPA <2.83, FESi >27.5), (3) high physiological/low perceived risk (PPA >2.83, FESi <35.5), and (4) high physiological/high perceived risk (PPA <2.83, FESi >35.5). Over 50% of participants had a disparity between perceived and physiological fall risk; most were in group 2. It is possible that physiological risk factors not detected by the PPA may also be influential.

Conclusions

This study highlights the importance of considering both physiological and perceived fall risk in MS and the need for further research to explore the complex interrelationships of perceptual and physiological risk factors in this population. This study also supports the importance of developing behavioral and physical interventions that can be tailored to the individual’s needs.  相似文献

Objective

To identify the risk factors for falls in community stroke survivors.

Data Sources

A comprehensive search for articles indexed in MEDLINE, Embase, CINAHL, PsycINFO, Cochrane Library, and Web of Science databases was conducted.

Study Selection

Prospective studies investigating fall risk factors in community stroke survivors were included. Reviewers in pair independently screened the articles and determined inclusion through consensus. Studies meeting acceptable quality rating using the Q-Coh tool were included in the meta-analysis.

Data Extraction

Data extraction was done in duplicate by 4 reviewers using a standardized data extraction sheet and confirmed by another independent reviewer for completeness and accuracy.

Data Synthesis

Twenty-one articles met the minimum criteria for inclusion; risk factors investigated by ≥3 studies (n=16) were included in the meta-analysis. The following risk factors had a strong association with all fallers: impaired mobility (odds ratio [OR], 4.36; 95% confidence interval [CI], 2.68–7.10); reduced balance (OR, 3.87; 95% CI, 2.39–6.26); use of sedative or psychotropic medications (OR, 3.19; 95% CI, 1.36–7.48); disability in self-care (OR, 2.30; 95% CI, 1.51–3.49); depression (OR, 2.11; 95% CI, 1.18–3.75); cognitive impairment (OR, 1.75; 95% CI, 1.02–2.99); and history of fall (OR, 1.67; 95% CI, 1.03–2.72). A history of fall (OR, 4.19; 95% CI, 2.05–7.01) had a stronger association with recurrent fallers.

Conclusions

This study confirms that balance and mobility problems, assisted self-care, taking sedative or psychotropic medications, cognitive impairment, depression, and history of falling are associated with falls in community stroke survivors. We recommend that any future research into fall prevention programs should consider addressing these modifiable risk factors. Because the risk factors for falls in community stroke survivors are multifactorial, interventions should be multidimensional.  相似文献

Objective

To investigate the relationship between perceived exertion while bathing/dressing/grooming and associations with social-recreational activities outside the home for individuals with mobility impairment (MI).

Design

A 2-study approach was used to examine data from the American Time Use Survey (ATUS) and primary data from the Health and Home Survey (HHS). The relationship between bathing/dressing/grooming and engagement in social-recreational activities was explored, as well as the role that exertion in the bathroom may play in participation in these activities.

Setting

General community setting.

Participants

For the ATUS survey, participants (n=6002) included individuals who reported an MI. For the HHS, 2 mail-based recruitment methods were used to recruit a sample of individuals with MI (n=170) across 3 geographically diverse U.S. communities.

Interventions

Not applicable.

Main Outcome Measures

Participation in social and recreational activities.

Results

People with MI (relative to those without MI) were less likely to report spending any time bathing/dressing/grooming on a given day, but spent more time when they did. People with MI reported higher exertion while bathing/dressing/grooming than people without. People with MI were less likely to leave the house or engage in social-recreational activities on days where they did not engage in bathing activities. People who reported greater exertion in the bathroom engaged in fewer social-recreational activities.

Conclusions

Exertion in the bathroom may present a barrier to participation, indicating a relationship between exertion in the bathroom and social-recreational participation. Research that examines the impact of home modifications on exertion and participation is needed.  相似文献

Introduction

The relationship between time of day and the clinical outcomes of patients with out-of-hospital cardiac arrest (OHCA) remains inconclusive. We undertook a meta-analysis to assess the available evidence on the relationship between nighttime and prognosis for patients with OHCA.

Materials and methods

PubMed and EMBASE were searched through June 20, 2018, to identify all studies assessing the relationship between nighttime and prognosis for patients with OHCA. Random effects modes were used to estimate odds ratios (ORs) with 95% confidence intervals (CIs).

Results

Eight observational studies met the inclusion criteria. Meta-analysis of 8 studies showed that compared with nighttime, the daytime OHCA patients had higher 1-month/in-hospital survival (OR, 1.25; 95% CI, 1.15–1.37; P?=?0.00), with high heterogeneity among the studies (I2?=?82.8%, P?=?0.00).

Conclusions

Patients who experienced OHCA during the nighttime had lower 1-month/in-hospital survival than those with daytime OHCA. In addition to arrest event and pre-hospital care factors, patients' comorbidity and hospital-based care may also be responsible for lower survival at night.  相似文献

Objective

To determine if there was a change in the number of outpatient physical therapy (PT) and occupational therapy (OT) visits for Medicare beneficiaries, and in the number of beneficiaries receiving extended courses of >12 therapy visits, after the Jimmo vs Sebelius settlement.

Design

Cross-sectional analysis of the Medical Expenditure Panel Survey (MEPS) comparing calendar years 2011-2012 to 2014-2015.

Setting

Community in-home survey.

Participants

Medicare Part-B recipients who received outpatient PT/OT (N=1183, median age 70.8) during pre–Jimmo settlement (2011-2012) and post–Jimmo settlement (2014-2015) time periods.

Intervention

Not applicable.

Main Outcome Measures

Number of therapy visits/patient/year and number of subjects who received >12 therapy visits/year estimated by linear and logistic regressions controlling for potential confounders (age, body mass index [BMI], and geographic region).

Results

The unadjusted median number of therapy visits/year increased from 7 to 8 after the settlement. Linear regression estimated a 1.02 increase in the number of therapy visits after the settlement (95% confidence interval [CI] 0.23, 1.80; P=.01). The odds of having >12 therapy visits/year increased (odds ratio=1.41; 95% CI 1.02,1.96; P=.04). We observed a significant interaction between race and the effect of the settlement on the odds of having >12 therapy visits (OR 3.64; 95% CI 1.58, 8.39). Non-Hispanic white subjects saw an increase in utilization while a combined group of black, Hispanic and Asian subjects’ utilization declined.

Conclusion

Utilization of outpatient PT/OT changed after the 2013 Jimmo settlement. Further research is needed to determine the effect on patient outcomes and cost.  相似文献

Objective

To update a previous review on whether additional physical therapy services reduce length of stay, improve health outcomes, and are safe and cost-effective for patients with acute or subacute conditions.

Data Sources

Electronic database (AMED, CINAHL, EMBASE, MEDLINE, Physiotherapy Evidence Database [PEDro], PubMed) searches were updated from 2010 through June 2017.

Study Selection

Randomized controlled trials evaluating additional physical therapy services on patient health outcomes, length of stay, or cost-effectiveness were eligible. Searching identified 1524 potentially relevant articles, of which 11 new articles from 8 new randomized controlled trials with 1563 participants were selected. In total, 24 randomized controlled trials with 3262 participants are included in this review.

Data Extraction

Data were extracted using the form used in the original systematic review. Methodological quality was assessed using the PEDro scale, and the Grading of Recommendation Assessment, Development, and Evaluation approach was applied to each meta-analysis.

Data synthesis

Postintervention data were pooled with an inverse variance, random-effects model to calculate standardized mean differences (SMDs) and 95% confidence intervals (CIs). There is moderate-quality evidence that additional physical therapy services reduced length of stay by 3 days in subacute settings (mean difference [MD]=–2.8; 95% CI, –4.6 to –0.9; I2=0%), and low-quality evidence that it reduced length of stay by 0.6 days in acute settings (MD=–0.6; 95% CI, –1.1 to 0.0; I2=65%). Additional physical therapy led to small improvements in self-care (SMD=.11; 95% CI, .03–.19; I2=0%), activities of daily living (SMD=.13; 95% CI, .02–.25; I2=15%), and health-related quality of life (SMD=.12; 95% CI, .03–.21; I2=0%), with no increases in adverse events. There was no significant change in walking ability. One trial reported that additional physical therapy was likely to be cost-effective in subacute rehabilitation.

Conclusions

Additional physical therapy services improve patient activity and participation outcomes while reducing hospital length of stay for adults. These benefits are likely safe, and there is preliminary evidence to suggest they may be cost-effective.  相似文献

Objective

To determine the association between quadriceps rate of force development (RFD) and decline in self-reported physical function and objective measures of physical performance.

Design

Longitudinal cohort study.

Setting

Community-based sample from 4 urban areas.

Participants

Osteoarthritis Initiative participants with or at risk for knee osteoarthritis, who had no history of knee/hip replacement, knee injury, or rheumatoid arthritis (N=2630).

Interventions

Not applicable.

Main Outcome Measures

Quadriceps RFD (N/s) was measured during isometric strength testing. Worsening physical function was defined as the minimal clinically important difference for worsening self-reported Western Ontario and McMaster Universities Osteoarthritis Index (WOMAC) physical function subscale score, 20-m walk time, and repeated chair stand time over 36 months.

Results

Compared with the slowest tertile of RFD, the fastest tertile had a lower risk for worsening of WOMAC physical function subscale score at 36-month follow-up, with an odds ratio (OR) of .68 (95% confidence interval [CI], .51–.92) after adjustment for age, sex, body mass index, depression, history of chronic diseases, and knee pain. In women, in comparison with the slowest tertile of RFD, the fastest tertile had a lower risk for worsening of WOMAC physical function subscale score at 36-month follow-up, with an adjusted OR of .57 (95% CI, .38–.86). This decreased risk did not reach statistical significance in men (OR, 0.81; 95% CI, 0.52–1.27). No statistically significant associations were detected between baseline RFD and walk or chair stand times.

Conclusions

Our results indicate that higher RFD is associated with decreased risk for worsening self-reported physical function but not with decreased risk for worsening of physical performance.  相似文献

ObjectiveTo synthesize literature about the effect of early physical therapy (PT) for acute low back pain (LBP) on subsequent health services utilization (HSU), compared to delayed PT or usual care.Data SourcesElectronic databases (MEDLINE, CINAHL, Embase) were searched from their inception to May 2018.Study SelectionStudy selection included randomized control trials and prospective and retrospective cohort studies that investigated the association between early PT and HSU compared to delayed PT or usual care. Two independent authors screened titles, abstracts, and full-text articles for inclusion based on eligibility criteria, and a third author resolved discrepancies. Eleven out of 1146 articles were included.Data ExtractionTwo independent reviewers extracted data on participants, timing of PT, comparisons to delayed PT or usual care, and downstream HSU, and a third reviewer assessed the information to ensure accuracy and reach consensus. Risk of bias was assessed with the Downs and Black checklist using the same method.Data SynthesisEleven studies met eligibility criteria. Early PT is within 30 days of the index visit for acute LBP. Five out of 6 studies that compared early PT to delayed PT found that early PT reduces future HSU. Random effects meta-analysis indicated a significant reduction in opioid use, spine injection, and spine surgery. Five studies compared early PT to usual care and reported mixed results.ConclusionsEarly PT for acute LBP may reduce HSU, cost, and opioid use, and improve health care efficiency. This review may assist patients, health care providers, health care systems, and third-party payers in making decisions for the treatment of acute LBP.  相似文献

Objectives

To evaluate the extent of variability in functional responses in participants in the Lifestyle Interventions and Independence for Elders (LIFE) study and to identify the relative contributions of intervention adherence, physical activity, and demographic and health characteristics to this variability.

Design

Secondary analysis.

Setting

Multicenter institutions.

Participants

A volunteer sample (N=1635) of sedentary men and women aged 70 to 89 years who were able to walk 400m but had physical limitations, defined as a Short Physical Performance Battery (SPPB) score of ≤9.

Interventions

Moderate-intensity physical activity (n=818) consisting of aerobic, resistance, and flexibility exercises performed both center-based (2times/wk) and home-based (3–4times/wk) sessions or health education program (n=817) consisting of weekly to monthly workshops covering relevant health information.

Main Outcome Measures

Physical function (gait speed over 400m) and lower extremity function (SPPB score) assessed at baseline and 6, 12, and 24 months.

Results

Greater baseline physical function (gait speed, SPPB score) was negatively associated with change in gait speed (regression coefficient β=?.185; P<.001) and change in SPPB score (β=?.365; P<.001), whereas higher number of steps per day measured by accelerometry was positively associated with change in gait speed (β=.035; P<.001) and change in SPPB score (β=.525; P<.001). Other baseline factors associated with positive change in gait speed and/or SPPB score include younger age (P<.001), lower body mass index (P<.001), and higher self-reported physical activity (P=.002).

Conclusions

Several demographic and physical activity–related factors were associated with the extent of change in functional outcomes in participants in the LIFE study. These factors should be considered when designing interventions for improving physical function in older adults with limited mobility.  相似文献

Objective

To present an evidence-based overview of the effectiveness of oral pain medication and corticosteroid injections to treat carpal tunnel syndrome (CTS).

Data Sources

The Cochrane Library, PubMed, Embase, CINAHL, and Physiotherapy Evidence Database were searched for relevant systematic reviews and randomized controlled trials (RCTs).

Study Selection

Two reviewers independently applied the inclusion criteria to select potential studies.

Data Extraction

Two reviewers independently extracted the data on pain (visual analog scale), function or recovery, and assessed the methodologic quality.

Data Synthesis

A best-evidence synthesis was performed to summarize the results of the included studies. Four reviews and 9 RCTs were included. For oral pain medication, strong and moderate evidence was found for the effectiveness of oral steroids versus placebo in the short term. Moderate evidence was found in favor of oral steroids versus splinting in the short term. No evidence was found for the effectiveness of oral steroids in the long term. For corticosteroid injections, strong evidence was found in favor of a corticosteroid injection versus a placebo injection and moderate evidence was found in favor of corticosteroid injection versus oral steroids in the short term. Also, in the short term, moderate evidence was found in favor of a local versus a systematic corticosteroid injection. Higher doses of corticosteroid injections seem to be more effective in the midterm; however, the benefits of corticosteroid injections were not maintained in the long term.

Conclusions

The reviewed evidence supports that oral steroids and corticosteroid injections benefit patient with CTS particularly in the short term. Although a higher dose of steroid injections seems to be more effective in the midterm, the benefits of oral pain medication and corticosteroid injections were not maintained in the long term.  相似文献

After eliminating those age 65 and older, there were 2624 adult participants with SCD; 1234 had MS and 1390 had SCI.InterventionsNot applicable.Main Outcome MeasuresCurrent employment status; number of benefits received and specific benefits received.ResultsA greater proportion of participants with MS received benefits, with significant differences observed on all but 1 type of benefit. Among those who were employed, a greater number of benefits was associated with having MS, greater education, younger age, married or in an unmarried couple, and not having functional restrictions with cognition, doing errands, or shopping alone in the community, and walking.ConclusionsEmployed participants with MS were more likely to receive job benefits, indicative of a higher quality of employment, compared to participants with SCI. Employment without benefits is a form of underemployment that disproportionately affects individuals with many of the same characteristics that initially lead to disparities in probability of gainful employment.  相似文献

Objective

The aim of this review was to investigate whether supervised home-based exercise therapy after hospitalization is more effective on improving functions, activities, and participation in older patients after hip fracture than a control intervention (including usual care). Furthermore, we aimed to account the body of evidence for therapeutic validity.

Data Sources

Systematic searches of Medline, Embase, and CINAHL databases up to June 30, 2016.

Study Selection

Randomized controlled trials studying supervised home-based exercise therapy after hospitalization in older patients (≥65y) after hip fracture.

Data Extraction

Two reviewers assessed methodological quality (Physiotherapy Evidence Database) and therapeutic validity (Consensus on Therapeutic Exercise Training). Data were primary analyzed using a best evidence synthesis on methodological quality and meta-analyses.

Data Synthesis

A total of 9 articles were included (6 trials; 602 patients). Methodological quality was high in 4 of 6 studies. One study had high therapeutic validity. We found limited evidence in favor of home-based exercise therapy for short- (≤4mo) and long-term (>4mo) performance-based activities of daily living (ADL) and effects at long-term for gait (fast) and endurance. Evidence of no effectiveness was found for short- and long-term effects on gait and self-reported (instrumental) ADL and short-term effects on balance, endurance, and mobility. Conflicting evidence was found for strength, long-term balance, short-term gait (comfortable), long-term self-reported ADL, and long-term mobility.

Conclusions

Research findings show no evidence in favor of home-based exercise therapy after hip fracture for most outcomes of functions, activities, and participation. However, trials in this field have low therapeutic validity (absence of rationale for content and intensity and reporting of adherence), which results in interventions that do not fit patients’ limitations and goals.  相似文献

Objective

To determine the efficacy of a participation-focused therapy (ParticiPAte CP) on leisure-time physical activity goal performance and satisfaction and habitual physical activity (HPA) in children with CP.

Design

Randomized waitlist-controlled trial.

Setting

Home and community.

Participants

Children classified at Gross Motor Function Classification System (GMFCS) levels I-III were recruited (n=37; 18 males; mean age ± SD, 10.0±1.4y) from a population-based register.

Interventions

Participants were randomized to ParticiPAte CP (an 8-wk goal-directed, individualized, participation-focused therapy delivered by a physical therapist) or waitlist usual care.

Main Outcome Measures

The primary outcome was Canadian Occupational Performance Measure. Accelerometers were worn for objective measurement of HPA (min/d moderate-to-vigorous physical activity [MVPA], sedentary time). Barriers to participation, community participation, and quality-of-life outcomes were also collected. Data were analyzed by intention-to-treat using generalized estimating equations.

Results

ParticiPAte CP led to significant improvements in goal performance (mean difference [MD]=3.58; 95% confidence interval [95% CI], 2.19-4.97; P<.001), satisfaction (MD=1.87; 95% CI, 0.37-3.36, P=.014), and barriers to participation (MD=26.39; 95% CI, 6.13-46.67; P=.011) compared with usual care at 8 weeks. There were no between-group differences on minutes per day of MVPA at 8 weeks (MD=1.17; 95% CI, ?13.27 to 15.61; P=.874). There was a significant difference in response to intervention between participants who were versus were not meeting HPA guidelines at baseline (MD=15.85; 95% CI, 3.80-27.89; P<.0061). After ParticiPAte CP, low active participants had increased average MVPA by 5.98±12.16 minutes per day.

Conclusion

ParticiPAte CP was effective at increasing perceived performance of leisure-time physical activity goals in children with CP GMFCS I-III by reducing modifiable barriers to participation. This did not translate into change in HPA on average; however, low active children may have a clinically meaningful response.  相似文献

Purpose

Acute kidney injury (AKI) is a common occurrence after lung transplantation (LTx). Whether transient AKI or early recovery is associated with improved outcome is uncertain. Our aim was to describe the incidence, factors, and outcomes associated with transient AKI after LTx.

Materials and Methods

We performed a retrospective cohort study of all adult recipients of LTx at the University of Alberta between 1990 and 2011. Our primary outcome transient AKI was defined as return of serum creatinine below Kidney Disease–Improving Global Outcome AKI stage I within 7 days after LTx. Secondary outcomes included occurrence of postoperative complications, mortality, and long-term kidney function.

Results

Of 445 LTx patients enrolled, AKI occurred in 306 (68.8%) within the first week after LTx. Of these, transient AKI (or early recovery) occurred in 157 (51.3%). Transient AKI was associated with fewer complications including tracheostomy (17.2% vs 38.3%; P < .001), reintubation (16.4% vs 41.9%; P < .001), decreased duration of mechanical ventilation (median [interquartile range], 69 [41-142] vs 189 [63-403] hours; P < .001), and lower rates of chronic kidney disease at 3 months (28.5% vs 51.1%, P < .001) and 1 year (49.6% vs 66.7%, P = .01) compared with persistent AKI. Factors independently associated with persistent AKI were higher body mass index (per unit; odds ratio [OR], 0.91; 95% confidence interval, 0.85-0.98; P = .01), cyclosporine use (OR, 0.29; 0.12-0.67; P = .01), longer duration of mechanical ventilation (per hour [log transformed]; OR, 0.42; 0.21-0.81; P = .01), and AKI stages II to III (OR, 0.16; 0.08-0.29; P < .001). Persistent AKI was associated with higher adjusted hazard of death (hazard ratio, 1.77 [1.08-2.93]; P = .02) when compared with transient AKI (1.44 [0.93-2.19], P = .09) and no AKI (reference category), respectively.

Conclusions

Transient AKI after LTx is associated with fewer complications and improved survival. Among survivors, persistent AKI portends an increased risk for long-term chronic kidney disease.  相似文献

ObjectivesTo evaluate the benefits of aerobic training (AT) programs on cardiorespiratory fitness, functional capacity, balance, and fatigue in individuals with multiple sclerosis (MS) and to identify the optimal dosage of AT programs for individuals with MS via a systematic review with meta-analysis.Data sourcesTwo electronic databases were searched until March 2020 (PubMed-Medline and Web of Science).Study SelectionStudies examining the effect of AT program on cardiorespiratory fitness, functional capacity, balance, and fatigue were included.Data ExtractionAfter applying the inclusion and exclusion criteria, we included 43 studies. A total sample of 1070 individuals with MS (AT group, n=680; control group, n=390) were analyzed.Data SynthesisThe AT group demonstrated a significant increase in cardiorespiratory fitness (standardized mean difference [SMD], 0.29; P=.002), functional capacity (timed Up and Go Test: SMD, –1.14; P<.001; gait speed: SMD, –1.19; P<.001; walking endurance: SMD, 0.46; P<.001), and balance (SMD, 3.49; P<.001) after training. Fatigue perception also decreased (SMD, –0.45; P<.001). However, no significant differences were observed when compared with the control group in either cardiorespiratory fitness (SMD, 0.14; P=.19) or fatigue perception. Nevertheless, we observed significant differences between the AT and control groups in balance (P=.02), gait speed (P=.02), and walking endurance (P=.03), favoring the participants who performed AT. Regarding the subgroup analysis, no significant differences were observed between subgroups in any of the variables studied except for gait speed, for which a greater increase in posttraining was observed when the AT program applied the continuous method (χ2=7.75; P=.005) and the exercises were performed by walking (χ2=9.36; P=.002).ConclusionsAerobic training improves gait speed, walking endurance, and balance. Cardiorespiratory fitness and fatigue perception also improved after AT, but we found no differences with the control group. In addition, subgroup analysis suggested that training using continuous and walking methods could optimize gait speed.  相似文献

Background

Obesity as one of the risk factors for cardiovascular diseases increases mortality in general population. Several clinical studies investigated clinical outcomes in patients with different body mass index (BMI) after cardiac arrest (CA). Controversial data regarding BMI on clinical outcomes in those patients exist in those studies. Therefore, we conducted a meta-analysis to evaluate the effect of BMI on survival condition and neurological prognosis in those patients.

Methods

We searched Pubmed, Embase, Ovid/Medline and EBM reviews databases for relational studies investigating the association between BMI and clinical outcomes of patients after CA. Seven studies involving 25,035 patients were included in this meta-analysis. Primary outcome was survival condition and secondary outcome was neurological prognosis. Three comparisons were conducted: underweight (BMI < 18.5) versus normal weight (18.5  BMI < 25), overweight (25  BMI < 30) versus normal weight and obese (BMI  30) versus normal weight.

Results

Using normal weight patients as reference, underweight patients had a higher mortality (odds ratio [OR] 1.35; 95% confidence interval [CI] 1.10 to 1.66; P = 0.004; I2 = 17%). Overweight was associated with increased hospital survival (OR 0.80; 95% CI 0.65 to 0.98; P = 0.03; I2 = 62%) and better neurological recovery (OR 0.72; 95% CI 0.61 to 0.85; P < 0.001; I2 = 0%). No significant difference was found in clinical outcomes between obese and normal weight patients.

Conclusions

Low BMI was associated with lower survival rate in CA patients. Overweight was associated with a higher survival rate and better neurological recovery. Clinical outcomes did not differ between obese and normal weight patients. Further studies are needed to explore the underlying mechanisms.  相似文献
