  • A new decision tree using the Pediatric Sepsis Biomarker Risk Model biomarkers had an area under the receiver operating characteristic curve of 0.87 (95% CI, 0.80-0.95) for estimating the risk of persistent, serious deterioration health-related quality of life at 3 months among children who survived septic shock. (unboundmedicine.com)
  • The Pediatric Sepsis Biomarker Risk Model biomarkers appear to have utility for estimating the risk of persistent, serious deterioration of health-related quality of life up to 3 months after surviving septic shock. (unboundmedicine.com)
  • In studies with ACR measurements, risk of mortality was unrelated to eGFR between 75 mL/min/1·73 m2 and 105 mL/min/1·73 m2 and increased at lower eGFRs. (soton.ac.uk)
  • ACR was associated with risk of mortality linearly on the log-log scale without threshold effects. (soton.ac.uk)
  • eGFR and ACR were multiplicatively associated with risk of mortality without evidence of interaction. (soton.ac.uk)
  • The mortality risk following COVID-19 diagnosis in men and women with common comorbidities at different ages has been difficult to communicate to the general public. (biomedcentral.com)
  • The 30-day mortality risk increased with age, male sex, and comorbidities. (biomedcentral.com)
  • Using in-hospital 30-day mortality provides a significantly different estimate of the role of specific risk factors. (ersjournals.com)
  • Despite limited empirical evidence, the ensuing mortality effects are regularly invoked by economic historians to explain patterns of economic development. (eur.nl)
  • Implementation of lockdown measures was associated with a 7% (0-13%) reduction in all-cause mortality, driven by reductions in deaths attributed to injuries, infectious diseases and maternal conditions, and cirrhosis and other liver conditions, respectively, but offset by a doubling in cancer deaths. (nature.com)
  • We believe that the estimates of the COVID-19 Excess Mortality Collaborators are unreliable and should not be used for any policy evaluation. (mpg.de)
