Longer hospital arrival times significantly increase both in-hospital and long-term mortality in cardiogenic shock, highlighting the urgent need for regional care coordination and early triage.
A nationwide South Korean study reveals that longer hospital arrival times significantly increase both in-hospital and long-term mortality in patients with cardiogenic shock, emphasizing the need for improved regional healthcare coordinatio
GLP-1 receptor agonists reduce mortality and cardiovascular events more effectively than SGLT2 inhibitors in serious mental illness (SMI), with early benefits and consistent effects across bipolar disorder, major depression, and schizophren
This study links higher neighborhood deprivation with increased 90-day mortality following major hepatectomy, highlighting social determinants as vital preoperative risk factors.
Post-MI adherence to diverse healthy dietary patterns is consistently linked to reduced mortality and cardiovascular events, underscoring the importance of diet quality in secondary prevention among MI survivors.
This study evaluates the independent association between incidental emphysema found on routine screening chest CT scans and all-cause mortality in a large Korean cohort, highlighting implications for risk stratification among ever-smokers.
Changes in NT-proBNP levels over three years define heart stress status, which improves cardiovascular and mortality risk prediction in older adults without prior CVD, underscoring its utility in clinical risk stratification.
This study evaluates how ICU room characteristics, including room type and visibility, influence mortality and length of stay, finding single rooms increase length of stay without affecting mortality.
Autoimmune conditions in acute interstitial pneumonia (AIP) are associated with reduced 90-day mortality and better discharge outcomes, indicating distinct clinical trajectories and opportunities for tailored care.
Early surgical excision within 48 hours significantly lowers 90-day mortality in adults with severe burns, suggesting it as a beneficial strategy despite increased sepsis risk.
This review synthesizes nationwide epidemiological trends of sepsis in South Korea from 2011 to 2022, elucidating incidence increases, declining in-hospital mortality, and key clinical and socioeconomic mortality determinants alongside rele
Early initiation of insulin within two hours for moderate hyperglycemia in ICU patients significantly lowers 30-day mortality compared to delayed or no insulin therapy. This target trial emulation highlights the potential clinical benefit o
This review synthesizes evidence showing that Medicaid expansion under the Affordable Care Act significantly reduced 1-year mortality among young adults starting dialysis by improving insurance coverage and access to nephrology care.
A multicenter cohort study shows that in critically ill patients undergoing continuous renal replacement therapy, mortality is more closely associated with fluid balance changes than net ultrafiltration rate, emphasizing patient-specific fl
A large UK cohort study reveals that beta-blockers reduce mortality in COPD patients with heart failure or ischemic heart disease, but concurrent long-acting beta-agonists may attenuate this benefit.
A multicenter randomized trial found that initiating a 1-hour resuscitation bundle including early antibiotics, fluids, vasopressors, and hydrocortisone in the prehospital setting did not significantly reduce 28-day mortality in adults with
A multicenter study investigated whether initiating a 1-hour resuscitation bundle—including antibiotics, fluids, vasopressors, and hydrocortisone—in the prehospital setting influences 28-day mortality in septic shock, finding no significant
In a nationwide case-control study, adults with congenital heart disease had similar 1-year mortality and recurrent heart attack rates after a first acute myocardial infarction as matched controls. A higher 10-year mortality estimate did not persist after adjustment, supporting aggressive cardiovascular risk-factor management.
A large Chinese cohort study reveals a U-shaped association between left ventricular end-diastolic diameter and mortality in heart failure, highlighting both small and large ventricular sizes as independent risk factors.
Elevated plasma levels of H3.1 nucleosomes at ICU admission correlate with increased mortality and acute kidney injury requiring renal replacement therapy in sepsis, highlighting their potential as prognostic biomarkers.
