question:
Context: Dyschloremia is common in critically ill patients, although its impact has not been well studied. We investigated the epidemiology of dyschloremia and its associations with the incidence of acute kidney injury and other intensive care unit outcomes.', 'This is a single-center, retrospective cohort study at Mayo Clinic Hospital-Rochester. All adult patients admitted to intensive care units from January 1st, 2006, through December 30th, 2012 were included. Patients with known acute kidney injury and chronic kidney disease stage 5 before intensive care unit admission were excluded. We evaluated the association of dyschloremia with ICU outcomes, after adjustments for the effect of age, gender, Charlson comorbidity index and severity of illness score.', 'A total of 6,025 patients were enrolled in the final analysis following the implementation of eligibility criteria. From the cohort, 1,970 patients (33%) developed acute kidney injury. Of the total patients enrolled, 4,174 had a baseline serum chloride. In this group, 1,530 (37%) had hypochloremia, and 257 (6%) were hyperchloremic. The incidence of acute kidney injury was higher in hypochloremic and hyperchloremic patients compared to those with a normal serum chloride level (43% vs.30% and 34% vs. 30%, respectively; P < .001). Baseline serum chloride was lower in the acute kidney injury group vs. the non-acute kidney injury group [100 mmol/L (96-104) vs. 102 mmol/L (98-105), P < .0001]. In a multivariable logistic regression model, baseline serum chloride of ≤94 mmol/L found to be independently associated with the risk of acute kidney injury (OR 1.7, 95% CI 1.1-2.6; P = .01).
Answer: Dyschloremia is common in critically ill patients, and severe hypochloremia is independently associated with an increased risk of development of acute kidney injury.
answer:
Does dyschloremia be a Risk Factor for the Development of Acute Kidney Injury in Critically Ill Patients?


question:
Context: Absenteeism from outpatient appointments is common. Telephone appointment-reminder calls reduce outpatient-appointment absenteeism in many clinic settings.', 'To determine if telephone appointment-reminder calls reduce outpatient absenteeism at a hospital-based pulmonary function laboratory.', 'We conducted a retrospective review of our pulmonary function laboratory\'s outpatient appointment records from April to November 2004. Data were collected from consecutive outpatient appointments, including patient age, sex, whether a telephone appointment-reminder call was successfully made, and whether the patient showed up for the scheduled test. We performed 3 analyses. Differences in absenteeism between the groups was the primary outcome measure. First, appointments were separated into 2 groups: (1) appointments for which a reminder call was attempted ("called" group) and (2) appointments for which a reminder call was not attempted ("not-called" group). The appointments were then separated into 2 further groups: (1) the reminder call was successfully achieved ("contacted" group) and (2) the patient either was not called or was called but could not be reached ("not-contacted" group). Finally, the contacted group was separated into 2 further groups: (1) reminder calls that resulted in direct conversation with an appropriate person at the patient\'s listed telephone number, and (2) reminder message left on an answering machine.', 'Data were collected from 515 consecutive outpatient appointments; 45 (8.7%) of these patients did not show up for testing. The absentee rate was 4.7% (n = 10) in the called group and 11.6% (n = 35) in the not-called group (p = 0.0066). In the called group, 6.5% (n = 14) could not be reached. The absentee rate was 4% (n = 8) in the contacted group and 11.7% (n = 37) in the not-contacted group (p = 0.0021). We found no difference in absenteeism between patients who received reminders via direct conversation (4.2%) and those who had a reminder message left on an answering machine (3.7%) (p > 0.05).
Answer: A policy of reminding outpatients of their appointments via telephone reduces absenteeism at a hospital-based pulmonary function laboratory. We found no difference in absenteeism between communicating the reminder via direct conversation versus via leaving a message on an answering machine.
answer:
Does the effect of telephone appointment-reminder call on outpatient absenteeism in a pulmonary function laboratory?


question:
Context: We hypothesized that ultrasound characteristics of breast fibroadenomas (FA) vary in relation to the clinical and histological parameters: patient age, tumor size and histological classification.', 'Eleven ultrasound characteristics frequently observed in breast tumors were defined before the onset of our study. These characteristics, as well as a semi-quantitative score for vascularization on color-coded Doppler ultrasound, were analyzed in a retrospective study. Histology revealed adult type differentiation in all FA. They were divided into florid, regressive and mixed subtypes. The examiner was blinded for the histological classification during image analysis.', 'Histological type: florid FA: more frequent in younger women (age group < 30 years; p < 0.001), and bigger than regressive FA (larger than 16 mm: p = 0.007). Statistically significant differences between florid and regressive FA regarding the ultrasound features: enhanced posterior ultrasound transmission (p < 0.001), homogenous echo pattern (p = 0.003) and lobulated margin contour (p = 0.042). Tumor size: patients with larger tumors (> 16 mm) were younger (mean age 35 vs. 43 years, p < 0.001). More often in bigger FA: enhanced dorsal ultrasound transmission (p < 0.001), hyperechoic spots (p < 0.001), strong vascularization (p < 0.001), inhomogeneous echo pattern (p = 0.001), horizontal axis (p = 0.009), lobulated margin contour (p = 0.009), lateral shadowing (p = 0.047). Age: more often in older patients (age group > 30 years): dorsal ultrasound shadowing (p = 0.008), irregular margin contour (p = 0.038), homogenous echo pattern (p = 0.047).
Answer: Histological type, tumor size and patient age significantly influence ultrasound characteristics of breast FA. This might be helpful to consider when breast lesions are classified and decisions for biopsies are made.
answer:

Are ultrasound characteristics of breast fibroadenomas related to clinical and histological parameters?
