まとめ
COVID-19に関連した黒人のヒスパニック系および非ヒスパニック系患者は,白人の非ヒスパニック系患者と比較して,急性腎臓損傷などの死亡リスクと合併症に直面しました.
科学分野:
- クリティカルケア医療
- 感染症
- 健康格差の研究
背景:
- セプシスの重篤な形態であるセプシスショックは 高い死亡率を伴う世界的な健康問題です
- COVID-19 パンデミックは,SARS-CoV-2 感染症によるセプシスとセプティックショックの負担を増加させました.
- 現存するデータは,重篤な疾患の結果における人種的および民族的格差を示していますが,COVID-19に関連する性ショックに対するその具体的な影響は十分に理解されていません.
研究 の 目的:
- COVID-19に関連したセプティックショックを経験する患者の結果における人種的および民族的差異を調査する.
- 流行病学的データを分析し,人種や民族に基づいた重症治療の結果の格差を特定する.
主な方法:
- 国立入院患者サンプル (2020-2021) を用いて遡及的なコホート研究を実施した.
- この研究では,同時にCOVID-19とセプティックショックを患った成人患者 (≥18歳) が参加しました.
- 病院での死亡率,急性腎臓損傷 (AKI),透析を必要とするAKI,機械呼吸器などのアウトカムは,調整された多変数ロジスティック回帰を用いて評価された.
主要な成果:
- ヒスパニック系患者は,非ヒスパニック系白人患者と比較して,病院での死亡率が高く,機械呼吸器の必要性が高く,透析を必要とするAKIのリスクが高くなった.
- 非ヒスパニック系黒人の患者は非ヒスパニック系白人の患者と同様の死亡率を示したが,人工呼吸器および透析を必要とするAKIのリスクは高かった.
- ヒスパニック系患者は 平均入院期間も最長で 関連費用も最多でした
結論:
- COVID-19に関連した性ショックを受けたヒスパニック系患者の死亡率は高かった.
- ヒスパニック系と非ヒスパニック系の黒人患者群は,非ヒスパニック系白人群と比較して腎臓と呼吸器の合併症が増加した.
- これらの格差の原因を特定し,早期発見とリスク因子緩和のための標的型戦略を開発するには,さらなる研究が必要です.

Factors Affecting the Risk of Infection
12.3K
The hosts' susceptibility to infection depends on several factors. The integrity of the skin and mucous membranes helps protect the body against microbial attacks. When the skin is altered, the chance of infection, limb loss, and even death increases.
The integrity and count of the white blood cells help the body resist pathogens and fight infection. When impaired, it reduces the body's resistance to pathogens. The acidic pH levels of the gastrointestinal, genitourinary tracts, and skin...

Stereotypes, Prejudice, and Discrimination
91.4K
Humans are very diverse and although we share many similarities, we also have many differences. The social groups we belong to help form our identities (Tajfel, 1974). These differences may be difficult for some people to reconcile, which may lead to prejudice toward people who are different. Prejudice is a negative attitude and feeling toward an individual based solely on one’s membership in a particular social group (Allport, 1954; Brown, 2010). Prejudice is common against people who...

Bias in Epidemiological Studies
671
Biases can arise at various stages of research, from study design and data collection to analysis and interpretation. Recognizing and addressing these biases is essential to ensure the validity and reliability of epidemiological findings.Broadly speaking, biases in epidemiology fall into three main categories: selection bias, information bias, and confounding. A more detailed description of possible biases is:

Acute Kidney Injury III: Clinical Manifestations
90
Acute Kidney Injury (AKI) progresses through distinct clinical phases: the oliguric, diuretic, and recovery phases, each marked by unique manifestations and challenges.Oliguric Phase:The oliguric phase is the initial stage of AKI, typically lasting 10 to 14 days. This phase is marked by a significant reduction in urine output, usually less than 400 mL per day, indicating decreased kidney function. Fluid retention is a prominent feature, leading to symptoms such as edema, hypertension, and...

Endocarditis II: Clinical Features of Infective Endocarditis
25
Endocarditis can present various clinical features depending on the causative organism and the patient's underlying health conditions. Initially, the clinical features of infective endocarditis develop gradually, presenting with nonspecific symptoms that can be easily mistaken for other illnesses.General SymptomsEarly symptoms of infective endocarditis are fever, chills, weakness, malaise, fatigue, and weight loss. These symptoms reflect the systemic nature of the infection and the body's...

Acute Kidney Injury IV: Diagnostic Studies and Prevention
57
Accurate diagnosis and effective prevention are critical in managing Acute Kidney Injury (AKI), which is linked to high mortality rates ranging from 10% to 80%. Timely recognition of at-risk patients and careful monitoring can significantly reduce the likelihood of kidney damage.Diagnostic Assessments:The diagnostic process starts with a comprehensive medical history to identify prerenal, intrarenal, and postrenal causes.Prerenal causes, such as dehydration, hypotension, or blood loss, should...
