Feasibility of remote monitoring for fatal coronary heart disease using Apple Watch ECGs.

Background: Fatal coronary heart disease (FCHD) is often described as sudden cardiac death (affects >4 million people/year), where coronary artery disease is the only identified condition. Electrocardiographic artificial intelligence (ECG-AI) models for FCHD risk prediction using ECG data from wearable devices could enable wider screening/monitoring efforts. Objectives: To develop a single-lead ECG-based deep learning model for FCHD risk prediction and assess concordance between clinical and Apple Watch ECGs. Methods: An FCHD single-lead ("lead I" from 12-lead ECGs) ECG-AI model was developed using 167,662 ECGs (50,132 patients) from the University of Tennessee Health Sciences Center. Eighty percent of the data (5-fold cross-validation) was used for training and 20% as a holdout. Cox proportional hazards (CPH) models incorporating ECG-AI predictions with age, sex, and race were also developed. The models were tested on paired clinical single-lead and Apple Watch ECGs from 243 St. Jude Lifetime Cohort Study participants. The correlation and concordance of the predictions were assessed using Pearson correlation (R), Spearman correlation (ρ), and Cohen's kappa. Results: The ECG-AI and CPH models resulted in AUC = 0.76 and 0.79, respectively, on the 20% holdout and AUC = 0.85 and 0.87 on the Atrium Health Wake Forest Baptist external validation data. There was moderate-strong positive correlation between predictions (R = 0.74, ρ = 0.67, and κ = 0.58) when tested on the 243 paired ECGs. The clinical (lead I) and Apple Watch predictions led to the same low/high-risk FCHD classification for 99% of the participants. CPH prediction correlation resulted in an R = 0.81, ρ = 0.76, and κ = 0.78. Conclusion: Risk of FCHD can be predicted from single-lead ECGs obtained from wearable devices and are statistically concordant with lead I of a 12-lead ECG.

An exploration of frontline health professional's current understanding of non-fatal strangulation.

AIM: To explore frontline health professionals' current understanding of non-fatal strangulation and their need for and support for a comprehensive education and screening package to support health delivery. DESIGN: A descriptive mixed-method approach was chosen to analyse responses to an anonymous, online survey consisting of ten Likert scale, open-ended and five demographic questions. 103 frontline health professionals (nurses, doctors, paramedics, midwives) participated in this study. METHODS: Content analysis of the Likert scale and open-ended questions describing the subjective experiences and perceptions of the participants was undertaken along with percentage and frequency counts of the rated Likert responses. RESULTS: The findings identified that 51.1% of health professionals do not ask about strangulation routinely and that 59% of health professionals reported receiving no formal education or professional development on NFS to enhance their knowledge or inform clinical practice. No health professionals identified mild traumatic brain injury as a consequence or sign of strangulation, nor did they identify an understanding that 50% of people may have no visible injuries after being strangled. Health professionals also do not routinely document the different agencies referred to or involved in supporting the person who experienced NFS. CONCLUSION: Findings suggest that frontline health professionals lack the confidence, skills and education needed to meet medical obligations to their patients and to fulfil their duty to 'do no harm'. Frontline health professionals would welcome a comprehensive education and screening package to guide recognition and response to non-fatal strangulation in their clinical settings. WHERE AND ON WHOM WILL THE RESEARCH HAVE AN IMPACT?: The purpose of the study was to understand and explore health professionals' knowledge about non-fatal strangulation so that improved education around better screening, and management of trauma-focused care to people who have been subjected to non-fatal strangulation could occur. NO PATIENT OR PUBLIC CONTRIBUTION: This review contains no patient or public contribution since it examines health professionals' knowledge of identifying non-fatal strangulation and the screening and assessment tools used in clinical practice.

Loperamide positive deaths in Sweden 2012-2022 and Finland 2017-2022: Fatal loperamide intoxication exclusively for Sweden.

Loperamide, a potent µ-opioid receptor agonist used as an antidiarrheal drug, exhibits increased bioavailability at supratherapeutic doses, causing potential central nervous system effects. Its misuse for opioid withdrawal relief and euphoria can lead to dangerously elevated blood levels, causing severe cardiac dysrhythmias and death. This study aimed to compare loperamide positive autopsy cases in Sweden and Finland after the introduction of postmortem toxicological analysis of loperamide, focusing on loperamide's role in fatalities and identifying common characteristics among those affected. All cases with detected loperamide in femoral blood at forensic autopsies in Sweden (2012-2022) and Finland (2017-2022) were included. In Sweden, loperamide was detected in 126 individuals, and in Finland, in 111 individuals. The incidence of individuals positive for loperamide in postmortem femoral blood increased steadily over the study duration in both Sweden and Finland. Loperamide related fatalities were observed exclusively in Sweden (n=80), predominantly involving younger males with histories of substance abuse, typically classified as accidental deaths. The group of loperamide nonrelated deaths in Sweden mirrored the entirety of cases in Finland. The concentration of loperamide in postmortem femoral blood was significantly higher in cases where loperamide was considered the cause of death (median 0.140 µg/g) compared to cases where loperamide contributed (median 0.080 µg/g), as well as in deaths unrelated to loperamide in both countries (Sweden: median 0.029 µg/g; Finland: median 0.010 µg/ml). The high limit of quantification for loperamide in Sweden may underestimate therapeutic users in epidemiological assessments. This study underscores the absence of loperamide misuse in Finland and indicates a rising trend of loperamide abuse in Sweden.

More than meets the eye: Lid and conjunctival injuries in cases of non-sexual assault are frequently accompanied by non-fatal strangulation.

OBJECTIVE: To determine the associations between lid and conjunctival injuries (LACI), non-fatal strangulation (NFS) and domestic family violence (DFV) in non-sexual assault. METHODS: The present study involves an analysis of LACI in a clinical audit of 85 sequential non-sexual assault presentations. RESULTS: LACI was present in 26.9% of non-sexual assault cases, and 47.4% of LACI patients also experienced NFS. LACI was sustained in the context of DFV in 62.9% of cases. Females made up 69.2% of LACI patients, with those between 14 and 29 years most at risk. Children were present in 12.8% of cases, 78.2% of perpetrators were male and 44.9% of patients had previously been assaulted by the same perpetrator. CONCLUSIONS: LACI is frequently associated with NFS and/or DFV. Since NFS increases future homicide attempts and events more than sixfold, LACI is an important signal about a patient's homicide risk, expanding the dimensions of the care needed. Those experiencing LACI during an assault also need to be referred for comprehensive eye examination as soon as possible. With consent, systematic forensic photography of LACI enables its assessment and documentation, which assists the legal process. These conclusions should drive legislative consideration and reform, plus expanded education for clinicians and police.

Intensity of statin therapy after ischaemic stroke and long-term outcomes: a nationwide cohort study.

BACKGROUND: Statins are essential for secondary prevention after ischaemic stroke (IS). However, statin intensity recommendations differ, and there is a concern about intracerebral haemorrhage (ICH). We studied the long-term impacts of initial statin intensity following IS. METHODS: Consecutive patients using high-intensity, moderate-intensity or low-intensity statin early after IS (n=45 512) were retrospectively studied using national registries in Finland. Differences were adjusted using multivariable regression. The primary outcome was all-cause death within 12-year follow-up (median 5.9 years). Secondary outcomes were recurrent IS, cardiovascular death and ICH studied using competing risk analyses. RESULTS: High-intensity therapy was initially used by 16.0%, moderate-intensity by 73.8% and low-intensity by 10.2%. Risk of death was lower with high-intensity versus moderate-intensity (adjusted HR (adj.HR) 0.92; 95% CI 0.87 to 0.97; number needed to treat (NNT) 32.0), with moderate-intensity versus low-intensity (adj.HR 0.91; 95% CI 0.87 to 0.95; NNT 27.5) and with high-intensity versus low-intensity (adj.HR 0.83; 95% CI 0.78 to 0.89; NNT 14.6) statin. There was a dose-dependent association of initial statin intensity with a lower probability of recurrent IS (p<0.0001) and cardiovascular death (p<0.0001). The occurrence of ICH was not associated with initial statin intensity (p=0.646). CONCLUSIONS: Following IS, more intense initial statin treatment is associated with improved long-term outcomes but not with the risk of ICH. These findings emphasise the importance of high statin intensity shortly after IS.

CT Angiography-Guided Needle Insertion for Interstitial Brachytherapy in Locally Advanced Cervical Cancer.

CT angiography might be a suitable procedure to avoid arterial puncture in combined intracavitary and interstitial brachytherapy for cervical cancer curatively treated with combined chemoradiation and brachytherapy boost. Data in the literature about this technique are scarce. We introduced this method and collected brachytherapy data from patients treated in our department between May 2021 and April 2024. We analyzed the applicator subtype, needle insertion (planned versus implanted), implanted depth and the role of CT angiography in selecting needle trajectories and insertion depths. None of the patients managed through this protocol experienced atrial puncture and consequent hemorrhage. Needle positions were accurately selected with the aid of CT angiography with proper coverage of brachytherapy targets and avoidance of organs at risk. CT angiography is a promising method for guiding needle insertion during interstitial brachytherapy.

A rare fatal cerebral fat emboli syndrome with large vessel occlusion post femur fracture plating in an older female: A case report.

INTRODUCTION AND IMPORTANCE: Cerebral fat embolism syndrome is a rare complication of long bone fractures, often overlooked and found in late stages. We present patient with a late recognition of Cerebral Fat Embolism with Large vessel occlusion post femoral internal fixation. CASE PRESENTATION: An elderly female suffered right intertrochanteric fracture after falling down. Open reduction internal fixation with Interlocking plate was performed at the fifth day. Upon returning to the ward, the patient did not regain full consciousness and apparent right hemiparesis were observed. A head Computed Tomography was performed and found left hemisphere ischemia consistent with middle cerebral artery occlusion. The patient condition worsened and died 3 days postoperatively. CLINICAL DISCUSSION: Cases of fat embolism that occur purely isolated in the brain are rare cases that occur after internal fixation of the femur, so they are often not noticed by clinicians. Several factors can increase the risk of the event, delay in fixation and diabetes mellitus which was found in our patient could increase the risk of fat emboli syndrome. Apart from that, osteoporosis also increases the risk of fat embolism syndrome that was found in our subject. CONCLUSIONS: Cerebral Large Vessel Occlusion Fat Embolism Syndrome is rare case occur following internal fixation. There is a need for early recognition to be carried out to treat early or prevent the occurrence of fat embolism.

Practical management of renal cell carcinoma: integrating current approaches with advances in bone metastasis treatment.

Renal cell carcinoma (RCC) is a common type of tumor that can develop in the kidney. It is responsible for around one-third of all cases of neoplasms. RCC manifests itself in a variety of distinct subtypes. The most frequent of which is clear cell RCC, followed by papillary and chromophobe RCC. RCC has the potential for metastasis to a variety of organs; nevertheless, bone metastases are one of the most common and potentially fatal complications. These bone metastases are characterized by osteolytic lesions that can result in pathological fractures, hypercalcemia, and other complications, which can ultimately lead to a deterioration in quality of life and an increase morbidity. While nephrectomy remains a foundational treatment for RCC, emerging evidence suggests that targeted therapies, including tyrosine kinase inhibitors and T cell checkpoint inhibitors, may offer effective alternatives, potentially obviating the need for adjuvant nephrectomy in certain cases of metastatic RCC Bone metastases continue to be a difficult complication of RCC, which is why more research is required to enhance patient outcome.

Generation of nighttime pedestrian fatal precrash scenarios at junctions in Tamil Nadu, India, using cluster correspondence analysis.

OBJECTIVE: Modern transportation amenities and lifestyles have changed people's behavioral patterns while using the road, specifically at nighttime. Pedestrian and driver maneuver behaviors change based on their exposure to the environment. Pedestrians are more vulnerable to fatal injuries at junctions due to increased conflict points with vehicles. Generation of precrash scenarios allows drivers and pedestrians to understand errors on the road during driver maneuvering and pedestrian walking/crossing. This study aims to generate precrash scenarios using comprehensive nighttime fatal pedestrian crashes at junctions in Tamil Nadu, India. METHODS: Though numerous studies were available on identifying pedestrian crash patterns, only some focused on identifying crash patterns at junctions at night. We used cluster correspondence analysis (CCA) to address this research gap to identify the patterns in nighttime pedestrian fatal crashes at junctions. Further, high-risk precrash scenarios were generated based on the positive residual means available in each cluster. This study used crash data from the Road Accident Database Management System of Tamil Nadu State in India from 2009 to 2018. Characteristics of pedestrians, drivers, vehicles, crashes, light, and roads were input to the CCA to find optimal clusters using the average silhouette width, Calinski-Harabasz measure, and objective values. RESULTS: CCA found 4 clusters with 2 dimensions as optimal clusters, with an objective value of 3.3618 and a valence criteria ratio of 80.03%. Results from the analysis distinctly clustered the pedestrian precrash behaviors: Clusters 1 and 2 on pedestrian walking behaviors and clusters 3 and 4 on crossing behaviors. Moreover, a hidden pattern was observed in cluster 4, such as transgender drivers involved in fatal pedestrian crashes at junctions at night. CONCLUSION: The generated precrash scenarios may be used to train drivers (novice and inexperienced for nighttime driving), test scenario creation for developing advanced driver/rider assistance systems, hypothesis creation for researchers, and planning of effective strategic interventions for engineers and policymakers to change pedestrian and driver behaviors toward sustainable safety on Indian roads.

[Detection rates and high concentration of herpesvirus (Orthoherpesviridae) DNA in autopsy materials from patients with COVID-19 fatal outcome].

INTRODUCTION: SARS-CoV-2 infection causes immune disorders that create conditions for the reactivation of human herpesviruses (HHVs). However, the estimates of the HHVs effect on the course and outcome of COVID-19 are ambiguous. Аim - to study the possible relationship between the HHV reactivation and the adverse outcome of COVID-19. MATERIALS AND METHODS: Postmortem samples from the brain, liver, spleen, lymph nodes and lungs were obtained from 59 patients treated at the Moscow Infectious Diseases Hospital No.1 in 2021-2023. The group 1 comprised 39 patients with fatal COVID-19; group 2 (comparison group) included 20 patients not infected with SARS-CoV-2 who died from various somatic diseases. HHV DNA and SARS-CoV-2 RNA were determined by PCR. RESULTS: HHV DNA was found in autopsy samples from all patients. In group 1, EBV was most often detected in lymph nodes (94%), HHV-6 in liver (68%), CMV in lymph nodes (18%), HSV in brain (16%), VZV in lung and spleen (3% each). The detection rates of HHVs in both groups was similar. Important differences were found in viral load. In patients with COVID-19, the number of samples containing more than 1,000 copies of HHV DNA per 100,000 cells was 52.4%, in the comparison group - 16.6% (p < 0.002). An association has been established between the reactivation of HSV and HHV-6 and the severity of lung damage. Reactivation of EBV correlated with increased levels of liver enzymes. CONCLUSION: Reactivation of HHVs in patients with fatal COVID-19 was associated with severe lung and liver damages, which indicates a link between HHV reactivation and COVID-19 deaths.

Trends in drug overdose deaths in Mexico (1999-2019). A national descriptive analysis and interstate comparison.

BACKGROUND: We assess trends in overdose mortality rates in Mexico from 1999 to 2019 and identify the states with the highest overdose mortality rates over time. METHODS: The analysis using mortality statistics examined deaths related to drug use. We estimated general overdose mortality rates at the national and state levels and calculated specific mortality rates associated with opioid and stimulant use using central rate estimation. We used joinpoint regression to analyse national and state-specific trends in overdose mortality from 1999 to 2019. FINDINGS: Nationally, the general overdose mortality rate increased annually by 10.49 % (p < 0.01, CI=11.4-18.9) from 2015 to 2019. The northern states of Baja California and Chihuahua were the states with the higher annual increases (18.6 %, p < 0.01, CI=4.2-29.6; and 15.6 %, p < 0.01, CI=12.9-19.7, respectively). By substance type, the national opioid-related mortality rate increased by 29.82 % per year from 2014 to 2019 (p < 0.01; CI=20.1-40.3), compared with an annual decrease of 11.43 % in the previous period (2005-2014) (p < 0.01; CI=-14.7- 8.0). Baja California was the state with the highest rise in opioid-related mortality from 2013 to 2019, with an annual increase of 15.84 % (p < 0.01; CI=1.4-32.3). Stimulant-related mortality increased by 21.79 % per year since 2013 (p < 0.01; CI=16.9-26.9), but it was not possible to calculate state-level trends. CONCLUSIONS: Drug-related mortality rates have increased in Mexico since 2015, particularly in the northern states of Baja California, Chihuahua, Sonora and Sinaloa. Improving harm reduction programmes and local surveillance of fatal and non-fatal overdoses is essential to address the silent escalation of overdose mortality.

Tezepelumab in a case of severe asthma exacerbation and influenza-pneumonia on VV-ECMO.

We present a case of 43-year-old male patient with broadly by Omalizumab, Mepolizumab and Benralizumab pretreated allergic asthma, who suffered a near fatal exacerbation, triggered by an influenza A infection. Due to massive bronchoconstriction with consecutive hypercapnic ventilatory failure veno-venous ECMO therapy had to be implemented. Hence, guideline directed asthma therapy a substantial bronchodilatation could not be achieved. After administration of a single dose Tezepelumab, a novel TLSP-inhibitor, and otherwise unchanged therapy we documented a significant reduction in intrinsic PEEP measured via a naso-gastric balloon catheter and a narrowing in the expiratory flow curve of the ventilator within 24 hours. The consecutive ventilatory improvement allowed the successful weaning from veno-venous ECMO therapy and invasive ventilation.

Strategies for Improving Firefighter Health On-Shift: A Review.

The fire service suffers from high rates of cardiovascular disease and poor overall health, and firefighters often suffer fatal and non-fatal injuries while on the job. Most fatal injuries result from sudden cardiac death, while non-fatal injuries are to the musculoskeletal system. Previous works suggest a mechanistic link between several health and performance variables and injury risk. In addition, studies have suggested physical activity and nutrition can improve overall health and occupational performance. This review offers practical applications for exercise via feasible training modalities as well as nutritional recommendations that can positively impact performance on the job. Time-efficient training modalities like high-intensity interval training and feasible modalities such as resistance training offer numerous benefits for firefighters. Also, modifying and supplementing the diet and can be advantageous for health and body composition in the fire service. Firefighters have various schedules, making it difficult for planned exercise and eating while on shift. The practical training and nutritional aspects discussed in this review can be implemented on-shift to improve the overall health and performance in firefighters.

"Tranq-dope": The first fatal intoxication due to xylazine-adulterated heroin in Italy.

BACKGROUND AND AIMS: The number of xylazine-involved overdose deaths tremendously increased from 2019 onwards in the US. This is due to the "tranq-dope" trend consisting in mixing opioids with the sedative to reduce drug manufacturing costs and enhance their effects. In this study, we report the first fatality involving xylazine-adulterated heroin in the EU. MATERIALS AND METHODS: The subject was a 33-year-old Caucasian male with a documented history of drug abuse who was found dead in a public area with puncture marks at the elbow. Peripheral blood and urine were collected at the autopsy and analyzed by liquid chromatography-high-resolution tandem mass spectrometry (LC-HRMS/MS) after protein precipitation. RESULTS: 6-Monoacetylmorphine, total/free morphine, and codeine blood concentrations of 20.3, 236/105, and 38.3 ng/mL, respectively, indicated recent heroin consumption. Methadone blood concentration was below 10 ng/mL. Alprazolam, nordiazepam, and flurazepam blood concentrations were 23.9, 61.4, and 55.0 ng/mL, respectively. Benzoylecgonine blood concentration was below 5 ng/mL. Xylazine blood and urine concentrations were 105 and 72.6 ng/mL, respectively. CONCLUSION: The combination of central nervous system depressants, i.e., opioids, benzodiazepines, and xylazine, was the principal cause of death by cardiorespiratory failure. The case was promptly reported to the UE Early Warning System on drugs.

[Fatal retroperitoneal necrotizing fasciitis due to Aeromonas caviae septicaemia]. / Fatale retroperitoneale nekrotisierende Fasziitis durch Aeromonas-caviae-Bakteriämie.

Aeromonas is well-recognized for causing diarrhea and post-traumatic wound infections. The most common Aeromonas species include Aeromonas hydrophila, Aeromonas caviae, and Aeromonas sobria. In cases of immunocompromise and malignancy, Aeromonas infections can prove fatal. Instances of deadly necrotizing fasciitis in the extremities due to Aeromonas infection have been documented. Herein, a case of previously unreported fatal retroperitoneal necrotizing fasciitis involving Aeromonas caviae in a patient with a history of gastric cancer is presented.

Death Following a Skiing Incident: Severe Exsanguination Due to Rupture of the Left Renal Artery.

With the growing popularity of winter sports, it is necessary to pay more attention to the types of traumatic injuries that a person can sustain in various incidents related to their practice. We present a case in which an adult man died as a result of a collision with a tree while skiing. Although the deaths are associated with different types and severity of craniocerebral injuries in the majority of the cases, here we are dealing with an abdominal injury with rupture of the stomach, pancreas, and left renal artery. The exact localization of the resulting traumatic injuries and the mechanism of their occurrence were examined. Both macroscopic autopsy findings (gross pathology) and histologically proven ones are presented and described. Presenting this case, we want to raise awareness of the different types of injuries received while skiing, as well as to emphasize the possibility of death in the absence of visible external injuries over the victim's body.

Multiple Venous Thromboses and Renal Failure in Behcet's Disease: A Case Report and Review of the Literature.

Behcet's disease (BD) is a systemic condition of unknown etiology, characterized by a wide clinical polymorphism. Vascular involvement in BD is rare and can be revealing in many cases. We present an advanced case of BD with multiple venous thromboses associated with urgent dialysis-dependent end-stage chronic renal failure. This case highlights the complexity of managing BD, emphasizing the challenges associated with multiple thromboses and the crucial importance of early diagnosis to optimize the management of this systemic disease.
