In a logistic regression , early disorganized attachment behaviors , baseline developmental quotient , and caregiving quality after randomization contributed to variance at @ months .
7
24488743
results
In the same analysis using only children with a history of institutional care , only disorganized attachment contributed significantly to @-month indiscriminate social behaviors ( Exp -LSB- B -RSB- = @ -LSB- @ % confidence interval : @-@ @ -RSB- ) .

8
25840499
results
Mean number of SABA fills over @ months was @ .
9
25840499
results
Unadjusted bivariate analysis showed that high SABA users were more than @ times more likely to have an asthma hospitalization , almost @ times more likely to have an asthma intensive care unit admission , and more than @ times more likely to have prior specialty asthma care or positive cockroach sensitization than low to moderate SABA users .
10

background
The impact of sugar-sweetened beverages ( SSB ) on lipid metabolism when consumed in moderate amounts by normal weight subjects is debated .
0
24601726
objective
The objective of the study was to investigate the effect of different types of sugars in SSB on fatty acid metabolism ( ie , fatty acid synthesis and oxidation ) in healthy young men .
1
24601726
methods
Thirty-four normal-weight men were studied in a randomized crossover study .
2
24601726
methods
Four isocaloric @-week interventions with SSB were performed in random order : medium fructose ( MF ; @ g/d ) ; high fructose ( HF ; @ g/d ) , high sucrose ( HS ; @ g/d ) , and high glucose ( HG ; @g/d ) .
3
24601726
methods
Fasting total plasma fatty acid composition was measured after each intervention .
4
24601726
methods
Acylcarnitines were measured in the fasting state and after a euglycemic hyperinsulinemic clamp in nine subjects .
5
24601726
results
The relative abundance of palmitate ( @:@ ) and the molar fatty acid ratio of palmitate to linoleic acid ( @:@ to@ :@ ) as markers of fatty acid synthesis were increased after HF -LSB- relative abundance of palmitate : @ % @ % ( percentage of total fatty acids by weight SD ) -RSB- and MF ( @ % @ % ) compared with HS ( @ % @ % , P < @ ) , HG ( @ % @ % , P < @ ) , or baseline ( @ % @ % , P < @ ) .
6
24601726
results
After HS and HG , the relative abundance of palmitate was equal to baseline .
7
24601726
results
Fasting palmitoylcarnitine was significantly increased after HF and HS ( HF and HS vs. HG : P = @ ) , decreasing after inhibition of lipolysis by insulin in the clamp .
8
24601726
conclusions
When consumed in moderate amounts , fructose but not sucrose or glucose in SSB increases fatty acid synthesis ( palmitate ) , whereas fasting long-chain acylcarnitines are increased after both fructose and sucrose , indicating an impaired - oxidation flux .

25465830
background
Little is known about global patterns of critical care unit ( CCU ) care and the relationship with outcomes in patients with acute decompensated heart failure ( ADHF ) .
0
25465830
background
Whether a ward or a CCU admission is associated with better outcomes is unclear .
1
25465830
methods
Patients in the Acute Study of Clinical Effectiveness of Nesiritide in Decompensated Heart Failure ( ASCEND-HF ) trial were initially hospitalized in a ward or CCU ( coronary or intensive care unit ) .
2
25465830
methods
Sites were geographically classified : Asia-Pacific ( AP ) , Central Europe ( CE ) , Latin America ( LA ) , North America ( NA ) , and Western-Europe ( WE ) .
3
25465830
methods
The primary outcome of @-day all-cause mortality or all-cause hospital readmission was adjusted using a two-stage multivariable logistic regression model with a generalized estimated equation that took sites within each country as a nested random factor .
4
25465830
results
Overall , @ ( @ % ) patients were admitted to a CCU and @ ( @ % ) to a ward , and this varied by region : @ % AP , @ % CE , @ % WE , @ % LA , and @ % NA .
5
25465830
results
The @-day death or readmission rate was @ % in ward patients and @ % in CCU patients ( risk-adjusted Odds Ratio -LSB- OR -RSB- @ : @ % CI , @-@ @ ) .
6
25465830
results
Compared with CCU patients in NA ( @ % @-day event rate ) , the primary outcomes were : AP ( @ % , Odds Ratio -LSB- OR -RSB- @ ; @ % confidence Interval -LSB- CI -RSB- , @ to @ ) , CE ( @ % , OR @ : @ % CI , @ to @ ) , LA ( @ % , OR @ : @ % CI , @ to @ ) , and WE ( @ % , OR @ , @ % CI , @ to @ ) .
7
25465830
results
No regional differences in @-day mortality were observed ; however , @-day readmission rates were highest in NA sites .
8
25465830
conclusions
Management of patients with ADHF varies significantly , and after adjustment , CCU care was associated with higher risk of early mortality , not explained by international differences .
9
25465830
conclusions
These findings may help to improve the early decisions regarding risk stratification of patients hospitalized with ADHF .

7
26124485
results
Time to HFS greater than grade @ was comparable , but time to any-grade HFS was significantly longer in the urea group ( P = @ ) .
8
26124485
results
Capecitabine dose intensity , time under study , and percentage of days with correct administration of study medication were identical , as were adverse events except for HFS .
9
26124485

25225241
background
Atrial fibrillation ( AFib ) is common in heart failure ( HF ) with preserved ejection fraction ( HFpEF ) .
0
25225241
background
Current AFib stroke risk prediction models include the presence of HF but do not specifically include HFpEF as a risk factor .
1
25225241
background
Whether a history of AFib should be used to identify patients with HFpEF who are at risk has not been established .
2
25225241
results
Baseline characteristics and outcomes of patients with HFpEF in the Irbesartan in Heart Failure with Preserved Ejection Fraction Trial were analyzed in relation to AFib .
3
25225241
results
At baseline , @ ( @ % ) had a history of AFib .
4
25225241
results
Of these @ ( @ % ) had history of AFib alone , whereas @ ( @ % ) had both a history and AFib on ECG ; @ ( @ % ) had neither .
5
25225241
results
There were no significant differences in the risk of stroke between the @ groups with a history of AFib who did or did not have AFib present on baseline ECG .
6
25225241
results
During a median follow-up of @ months , a fatal or nonfatal stroke occurred in @ % ( @/@ ) patients with history of AFib compared with @ % ( @/@ ) with no AFib .
7
25225241
results
Having a history of AFib was independently associated with higher risk of stroke ( hazard ratio , @ ; @ % confidence interval , @-@ @ ; P < @ ) compared with those with no history of AFib .
8
25225241
conclusions
In patients with HFpEF , a history of AFib was common and independently associated with increased risk of stroke , regardless of whether AFib was present on ECG .
9
25225241
conclusions
Patients with HFpEF and a history of AFib should be considered at risk .
10
25225241
conclusions
Further studies are needed to determine whether this risk can be safely reduced .
