Dataset Information

Characteristics and the average 30-day and 6-month clinical outcomes of patients hospitalised with coronary artery disease in a poor South-East Asian setting: the first cohort from Makassar Cardiac Center, Indonesia.

ABSTRACT:

Objective

To provide a detailed description of characteristics at hospital admission and clinical outcomes at 30-day and 6-month follow-up in patients hospitalised with coronary artery disease (CAD) in a poor South-East Asian setting.

Design

Prospective observational cohort study.

Setting

From February 2013 to December 2014, in Makassar Cardiac Center, Indonesia.

Participants

477 patients with CAD (acute coronary syndrome and stable CAD).

Outcome measures

All-cause mortality and major adverse cardiovascular events (MACE).

Results

Out of 477 patients with CAD, the proportion of young age (<60 years) was 53.9% and 72.7% were male. At admission, 44.2% of patients were diagnosed with ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI), 38.6% with diagnosis or signs of heart failure and 75.1% had previous hypertension. Out of 211 patients with STEMI, only 4.7% had been treated with primary percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) and 6.2% received thrombolysis. The time lapse from symptom onset to hospital admission was 26.8 (IQR 10.0-48.0) hours, and 19.1% of all patients had undergone either PCI or coronary artery bypass graft. The survival rate at 6 months was 78.9%. The rates of all-cause mortality at 30 days and 6 months were 13.4% and 7.3%, respectively; the rate of composite MACE at 30 days was 26.2% and 18.0% at 6 months.

Conclusions

Patients with CAD from a poor South-East Asian setting present themselves with predominantly unstable conditions of premature CAD. These patients show relatively severe illness, have significant time delay from symptom onset to admission or intervention, and most do not receive the guidelines-recommended treatment. Awareness of symptoms, prompt initial management of acute CVD, well-established infrastructures and resources both in primary and secondary hospital for CVD should be improved to reduce the high rates of 30-day and 6-month mortality and adverse outcomes in this population.

Project description:ObjectivesReadmission to acute care from the inpatient rehabilitation facility (IRF) setting is potentially preventable and an important target of quality improvement and cost savings. The objective of this study was to develop a risk calculator to predict 30-day all-cause readmissions from the IRF setting.DesignRetrospective database analysis using the Uniform Data System for Medical Rehabilitation (UDSMR) from 2015 through 2019.Setting and participantsIn total, 956 US inpatient rehabilitation facilities and 1,849,768 IRF discharges comprising patients from 14 impairment groups.MethodsLogistic regression models were developed to calculate risk-standardized 30-day all-cause hospital readmission rates for patients admitted to an IRF. Models for each impairment group were assessed using 12 common clinical and demographic variables and all but 4 models included various special variables. Models were assessed for discrimination (c-statistics), calibration (calibration plots), and internal validation (bootstrapping). A readmission risk scoring system was created for each impairment group population and was graphically validated.ResultsThe mean age of the cohort was 68.7 (15.2) years, 50.7% were women, and 78.3% were Caucasian. Medicare was the primary payer for 73.1% of the study population. The final models for each impairment group included between 4 and 13 total predictor variables. Model c-statistics ranged from 0.65 to 0.70. There was good calibration represented for most models up to a readmission risk of 30%. Internal validation of the models using bootstrap samples revealed little bias. Point systems for determining risk of 30-day readmission were developed for each impairment group.Conclusions and implicationsMultivariable risk factor algorithms based upon administrative data were developed to assess 30-day readmission risk for patients admitted from IRF. This report represents the development of a readmission risk calculator for the IRF setting, which could be instrumental in identifying high risk populations for readmission and targeting resources towards a diverse group of IRF impairment groups.

Project description:IntroductionThis study aimed to perform mutation and phylogenetic analyses of the Severe Acute Respiratory Syndrome Coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) Delta variants and analyze the characteristic signs and symptoms of patients infected with SARS-CoV-2 Delta variant originated from Makassar during the Delta outbreak.Methods: We collected samples from patients who were infected with coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) between June and October 2021. We selected the Quantitative Reverse Transcription-Polymerase Chain Reaction (PCR)-positive samples with a cycle threshold value of <30 for whole genome sequencing. Total viral ribonucleic acid (RNA) was isolated from 34 PCR-positive nasopharyngeal swab samples, and whole genome sequencing was performed using the Oxford Nanopore GridlON sequencer. Phylogenetic and maximum clade credibility analyses were performed using the Bayesian Markov chain Monte Carlo method.ResultsIt was found that 33 patients were infected with the SARS-CoV-2 Delta variant in this cohort study, among whom 63.6% (21) patients were female. According to the clinical data, 24 (72.7%), 7 (21.2%), and 2 (6.1%) patients had mild, moderate, and severe COVID-19 infections. Phylogenetic analysis based on the spike and RNA-dependent RNA polymerase (RdRp) genes showed that the collected samples were clustered in the main lineage of B.1.617.2 (Delta variant). The Delta variants had a high frequency of distinct mutations in the spike protein region, including T19R (94.12%), L452R (88.23%), T478K (91.17%), D614G (97%), P681R (97%), and D950 N (97%). Other unique mutations found in a smaller frequency in our samples were present in the N-terminal domain, including A27T (2.94%) and A222V (14.70%), and in the receptor-binding domain, including Q414K (5.88%), G446V (2.94%), and T470 N (2.94%).ConclusionThis study revealed the unique mutations in the S protein region of Delta variants. T19R, L452R, T478K/T478R, D614G, P681R, and D950 N were the most common substitutions in Makassar's Delta variant.
