RESULTS Forty modeling studies were identified and categorized into 4 groups Markov disability/recurrence (k = 29); CI (k = 2); discrete event simulation (k = 4), and other (k = 5). Only 2 modeling studies included CI as an outcome, and both focused on narrow populations at risk of intracranial aneurysm. None of the models allowed for disease progression in the absence of a stroke recurrence. None of the included studies carried out any sensitivity analysis in relation to model design or structure. CONCLUSIONS Current stroke models used in economic evaluation are not adequate to model poststroke CI or dementia, and will require adaptation to be used for this purpose. © 2020 S.

However, risk factors for complications and success after endoscopic sphincterotomy (EST) for duct stones, are poorly-determined. This study aims to verify risk factors for mortality, complications and success after EST. METHODS A multivariate analysis was carried out in a dataset of ERCPs performed during 17 years. RESULTS 5226 ERCPs were performed, of which 2137 were in patients with bile duct stones (1458 women and 679 men; mean age = 57 years) who underwent EST with attempted stone removal. There were 171 (8%) complications being pancreatitis in 87 (4.1%), bleeding in 48 (2.2%), other complications in 36 (1.8%), and mortality of 0.6%. Successful stone(s) removal was obtained in 2028 cases (94.9%). On multivariate analysis, mortality was associated with age > 60 yr. (1 vs. 0.2%), cholangitis (4.3 vs.0.3%) and EST--related complications (5.8 vs. 0.2%). Complications were associated with unsuccessful stone removal (13.4 vs. 7.5%) and difficult cannulation (13.9 vs. Apcin in vivo 5.4%). An unsuccessful EST was independently related to difficult cannulation (86.2 vs. 98.7%), precutting (79.4 vs. 96.4%) and complications (86.5 vs. 95.6%). CONCLUSIONS Risk factors for complications after EST for stones are delayed bile duct cannulation and failed stone retrieval. Mortality is higher in older patients, those who presented with an EST-related complication or those who presented initially with cholangitis. Difficult cannulation, EST-related complications and pre-cut were associated with an unsuccessful procedure. In this series, outpatient EST with attempted stone retrieval showed to be as safe as performing the procedure in hospitalized patients. © 2020 S.

[Chest 2002;122;1535-1542] by reviewing the effectiveness of air purification for the treatment of home-related allergic asthma (dust mite, dog, cat, and cockroach). We analysed the trials included by McDonald et al. as well as studies published since 2000. Data on asthma symptoms scores (ASS), medication use, forced expiratory volume in 1 s as a percentage of the predicted value (FEV1 %pred), histamine provocative concentration causing a 20% reduction in FEV1 (PC20), Asthma Quality of Life Questionnaire (AQLQ) scores, and fractional exhaled nitric oxide (FeNO) levels were extracted. The effectiveness was examined using metafor (registered in Prospero CRD42019127227). Ten trials including a total of 482 patients (baseline characteristics mean FEV1 %pred 83.2%, I2 = 96.7%; mean PC20 4.93 mg/mL, I2 = 44.0%; mean AQLQ 4.67 [max. 7], I2 = 93.7%; mean FeNO 36.5 ppb, I2 = 0%) were included. We assessed the mean differences in the AQLQ scores as +0.36 (95% CI 0.10 to 0.62, p = 0.01, n = 302, I2 = 0%) and the FeNO levels as -6.67 ppb (95% CI -10.56 to -2.77, p = 0.0008, n = 304, I2 = 0%). The standardised mean differences in all other health outcomes were not significant (ASS -0.68, p = 0.20; medication use -0.01, p = 0.94; FEV1 %pred -0.11, p = 0.34; PC20 +0.24, p = 0.53). We found statistically significant mean differences in the AQLQ scores and FeNO levels in patients with predominantly mild to moderate asthma at baseline. A large trial reported great improvement in the subgroup of patients receiving Global Initiative for Asthma step 4 therapy. We recommend that future studies on air purification focus on patients with severe and poorly controlled allergic asthma. © 2020 The Author(s) Published by S.

However, other studies report frequent positive lines at the lateral resection margin after endoscopic treatment. Subepithelial spread beneath normal mucosa can exist in SRC, and such lesions may be the cause of positive margins after endoscopic resection. Thus, we conducted a retrospective study in order to evaluate the significance of subepithelial spread in early gastric SRC. METHOD Medical records of early gastric SRC patients who underwent surgery or endoscopic resection from January 2011 to December 2016 at a single tertiary hospital (Daejeon, South Korea) were reviewed to examine subepithelial spread and clinical datum. 2 expert pathologists reviewed all pathologic specimens and only patients showing a pure SRC component were included. RESULTS 86 patients were initially enrolled and subepithelial spread existed in 62 patients (72.1%). The mean distance of subepithelial spread was 1132.1µm, and maximal the maximal distance was 6000µm. Only discoloration was significantly associated with the presence of a subepithelial spread (p less then 0.05, chi-square test and logistic regression test). Distance of subepithelial spread did not correlate with total lesion size. CONCLUSION Subepithelial spread of early gastric SRC occurs frequently, and can reach up to 6 mm. Lesion discoloration may be associated with the presence of subepithelial spread. Our results suggest that careful decision of margin is needed when performing endoscopic resection of early gastric SRC.  . © 2020 S. Karger AG, Basel.Trisomy 14 is incompatible with live, but there are several patients reported with mosaic trisomy 14. We aimed to study the pattern of X inactivation and its effect on a translocated autosome and to find out an explanation of the involvement of chromosome 14 in 2 different structural chromosomal abnormalities. We report on a girl with frontal bossing, hypertelorism, low-set ears, micrognathia, cleft palate, congenital heart disease, and abnormal skin pigmentations. The patient displayed iris, choroidal, and retinal coloboma and agenesis of the corpus callosum and cerebellar vermis hypoplasia. Cytogenetic analysis revealed a karyotype 45,X,der(X)t(X;14)(q24;q11)[85]/46,XX,rob(14;14)(q10;q10),+14[35]. Array-CGH for blood and buccal mucosa showed high mosaic trisomy 14 and an Xq deletion. MLPA detected trisomy 14 in blood and buccal mucosa and also showed normal methylation of the imprinting center. FISH analysis confirmed the cell line with trisomy 14 (30%) and demonstrated the mosaic deletion of the Xq subtelomere in both tissues.
