UnknownNeonatal Screening in Europe Revisited: An ISNS Perspective on the Current State and Developments Since 2010.
Neonatal screening (NBS) was initiated in Europe during the 1960s with the screening for phenylketonuria. The panel of screened disorders ("conditions") then gradually expanded, with a boost in the late 1990s with the introduction of tandem mass spectrometry (MS/MS), making it possible to screen for...

UnknownIntubation Practices and Adverse Peri-intubation Events in Critically Ill Patients From 29 Countries.

Importance

Tracheal intubation is one of the most commonly performed and high-risk interventions in critically ill patients. Limited information is available on adverse peri-intubation events.

Objective

To evaluate the incidence and nature of adverse peri-intubation events and to asse...

UnknownPeri-intubation complications in critically ill obese patients: a secondary analysis of the international INTUBE cohort.

Background

Airway management in critically ill obese patients is potentially associated with a higher risk of adverse events due to a constellation of physiological and anatomical challenges. Data from international prospective studies on peri-intubation adverse events in obese critically il...

UnknownStoma-free Survival After Rectal Cancer Resection With Anastomotic Leakage: Development and Validation of a Prediction Model in a Large International Cohort.

Objective

To develop and validate a prediction model (STOMA score) for 1-year stoma-free survival in patients with rectal cancer (RC) with anastomotic leakage (AL).

Background

AL after RC resection often results in a permanent stoma.

Methods

This international retrospective coh...

UnknownChanges in symptomatology, reinfection, and transmissibility associated with the SARS-CoV-2 variant B.1.1.7: an ecological study.

Background

The SARS-CoV-2 variant B.1.1.7 was first identified in December, 2020, in England. We aimed to investigate whether increases in the proportion of infections with this variant are associated with differences in symptoms or disease course, reinfection rates, or transmissibility.

UnknownGenomic epidemiology of SARS-CoV-2 in a UK university identifies dynamics of transmission.
Understanding SARS-CoV-2 transmission in higher education settings is important to limit spread between students, and into at-risk populations. In this study, we sequenced 482 SARS-CoV-2 isolates from the University of Cambridge from 5 October to 6 December 2020. We perform a detailed phylogenetic c...

UnknownGenomic assessment of quarantine measures to prevent SARS-CoV-2 importation and transmission.
Mitigation of SARS-CoV-2 transmission from international travel is a priority. We evaluated the effectiveness of travellers being required to quarantine for 14-days on return to England in Summer 2020. We identified 4,207 travel-related SARS-CoV-2 cases and their contacts, and identified 827 associa...

UnknownInvestigation of hospital discharge cases and SARS-CoV-2 introduction into Lothian care homes.

Background

The first epidemic wave of severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus-2 (SARS-CoV-2) in Scotland resulted in high case numbers and mortality in care homes. In Lothian, over one-third of care homes reported an outbreak, while there was limited testing of hospital patients discha...
