Long and Short of It: Early Response Predicts Longer-Term Outcomes in Pediatric Weight Management.

ABSTRACT: OBJECTIVE:This study aimed to examine whether 1-month BMI improvement is predictive of superior 6- and 12-month BMI changes in a national sample of youth in pediatric weight management treatment. METHODS:Participants were 4- to 18-year-olds from the Pediatric Obesity Weight Evaluation Registry, a prospective study collecting data from 31 pediatric weight management programs across the United States. Response at 1 month was defined as ≥ 3% BMI reduction; success at 6 and 12 months was defined as ≥ 5% BMI reduction from baseline. Analyses used linear and logistic regression with robust variance estimation. RESULTS:Primary analyses were completed with 687 participants (mean age 12.2 years). One-month responders demonstrated significant improvements in BMI compared with nonresponders at 6 months (BMI, -2.05 vs. 0.05; %BMI, -5.81 vs. 0.23; P < 0.001 for all) and 12 months (BMI, -1.87 vs. 0.30; %BMI, -5.04 vs. 1.06; P < 0.001 for all). The odds of success for 1-month responders were 9.64 (95% CI: 5.85-15.87; P < 0.001) times that of nonresponders at 6 months and 5.24 (95% CI: 2.49-11.02; P < 0.001) times that of nonresponders at 12 months. CONCLUSIONS:In treatment-seeking youth with obesity, early BMI reduction was significantly associated with greater long-term BMI reduction. Nonresponders may benefit from early treatment redirection or intensification.

Project description:IntroductionReproductive endocrinologists recommend selective multifetal pregnancy reduction (MFPR) to save at least one or two babies, because triplet pregnancy is known to increase the risk of miscarriage and preterm delivery. However, recently improved obstetric and neonatal care may affect pregnancy outcomes differently in triplet pregnancies, which could alter practice. We compared the maternal, perinatal, and long-term outcomes of triplet pregnancies managed expectantly with those of pregnancies reduced to twins.Material and methodsIn this retrospective cohort study, we reviewed the clinical records of 552 trichorionic triplet pregnancies for obstetric, perinatal, and neurodevelopmental outcomes, which consisted of the expectant management (EM) group (n = 225) and MFPR group (n = 327), in Seoul National University Hospital and CHA Bundang Medical Center from January 2006 to December 2018. Neuromotor development was evaluated using the Korean-Ages and Stages Questionnaire, Bayley-III tests, and/or Gross Motor Function Measure. The two groups were compared for the following outcomes: (1) nonviable pregnancy loss before 23 weeks, (2) preterm birth before 32 weeks of gestation, (3) fetal and neonatal survival and (4) long-term neurodevelopmental outcomes.ResultsThere were no differences in maternal age, body mass index, nulliparity or previous preterm birth between the two groups. The risk of nonviable pregnancy loss was lower in the EM group than that in the MFPR group (2 [0.9%] vs 21 [6.4%], p = 0.001). The risk of preterm delivery before 34 weeks of gestation was lower in the MFPR group (adjusted odds ratios [aOR] = 0.47, 95% confidence interval [CI] 0.30-0.73, p = 0.001). The survival rate of neonates until discharge (644 [95.4%] vs 572 [87.5], p < 0.001) and the rate of pregnancies with at least one survivor (220 [97.8%] vs 301 [92.0], p = 0.002) were higher in the EM group than those in the MFPR group. In the MFPR group, the risk of developmental delay (aOR = 2.89, 95% CI 1.38-6.02, p = 0.005) was higher.ConclusionsIn trichorionic triplet pregnancies, the possibility of EM to improve survival and reduce the risk of developmental delay has been shown.

Project description:IntroductionThe most common surgical options for geriatric proximal humerus fractures are open reduction and internal fixation (ORIF), hemiarthroplasty (HA), and reverse total shoulder arthroplasty. We used a longitudinal inpatient discharge database to determine the cumulative incidence of conversion to arthroplasty after ORIF of geriatric proximal humerus fractures. The rates of short-term complications and all-cause reoperation were also compared.Patients and methodsAll patients 65 or older who sustained a proximal humerus fracture and underwent either ORIF, HA, or shoulder arthroplasty (SA) as an inpatient from 2000 through 2017 were identified. Survival analysis was performed with ORIF conversion to arthroplasty and all-cause reoperation as the endpoints of interest. Rates of 30-day readmission and short-term complications were compared. Trends in procedure choice and outcomes over the study period were analyzed.ResultsA total of 27 102 geriatric patients that underwent inpatient surgical management of proximal humerus fractures were identified. Among geriatric patients undergoing ORIF, the cumulative incidence of conversion to arthroplasty within 10 years was 8.2%. The 10-year cumulative incidence of all-cause reoperation was 12.1% for ORIF patients and less than 4% for both HA and SA patients. Female sex was associated with increased risk of ORIF conversion and younger age was associated with higher all-cause reoperation. ORIF was associated with higher 30-day readmission and short-term complication rates. Over the study period, the proportion of patients treated with ORIF or SA increased while the proportion of patients treated with HA decreased. Short-term complication rates were similar between arthroplasty and ORIF patients in the later cohort (2015-2017).ConclusionThe 10-year cumulative incidence of conversion to arthroplasty for geriatric patients undergoing proximal humerus ORIF as an inpatient was found to be 8.2%. All-cause reoperations, short-term complications, and 30-day readmissions were all significantly lower among patients undergoing arthroplasty, but the difference in complication rate between arthroplasty and ORIF was attenuated in more recent years. Younger age was a risk factor for reoperation and female sex was associated with increased risk of requiring conversion to arthroplasty after ORIF.
