  • Comparison of New Implantation of Cardiac Implantable Electronic
    www.nature.com/scientificreports OPEN Comparison of new implantation of cardiac implantable electronic device between tertiary and non‑tertiary hospitals: a Korean nationwide study Seungbong Han1, Gyung‑Min Park2, Yong‑Giun Kim2*, Ki Won Hwang3, Chang Hee Kwon4, Jae‑Hyung Roh5, Sangwoo Park2, Ki‑Bum Won2, Soe Hee Ann2, Shin‑Jae Kim2 & Sang‑Gon Lee2 This study compared the characteristics and mortality of new implantation of cardiac implantable electronic device (CIED) between tertiary and non‑tertiary hospitals. From national health insurance claims data in Korea, 17,655 patients, who underwent frst and new implantation of CIED between 2013 and 2017, were enrolled. Patients were categorized into the tertiary hospital group (n = 11,560) and non‑tertiary hospital group (n = 6095). Clinical outcomes including in‑hospital death and all‑cause death were compared between the two groups using propensity‑score matched analysis. Patients in non‑tertiary hospitals were older and had more comorbidities than those in tertiary hospitals. The study population had a mean follow‑up of 2.1 ± 1.2 years. In the propensity‑score matched permanent pacemaker group (n = 5076 pairs), the incidence of in‑hospital death (odds ratio [OR]: 0.76, 95% confdence interval [CI]: 0.43–1.32, p = 0.33) and all‑cause death (hazard ratio [HR]: 0.92, 95% CI 0.81–1.05, p = 0.24) were not signifcantly diferent between tertiary and non‑tertiary hospitals. These fndings were consistently observed in the propensity‑score matched implantable cardioverter‑ defbrillator group (n = 992 pairs, OR for in‑hospital death: 1.76, 95% CI 0.51–6.02, p = 0.37; HR for all‑cause death: 0.95, 95% CI 0.72–1.24, p = 0.70).

  • ECDC/EFSA Joint Report: Avian Influenza Overview October
    SCIENTIFIC REPORT APPROVED: 29 September 2017 doi: 10.2903/j.efsa.2017.5018 Avian influenza overview October 2016–August 2017 European Food Safety Authority, European Centre for Disease Prevention and Control, European Union Reference Laboratory for Avian influenza, Ian Brown, Paolo Mulatti, Krzysztof Smietanka, Christoph Staubach, Preben Willeberg, Cornelia Adlhoch, Denise Candiani, Chiara Fabris, Gabriele Zancanaro, Joana Morgado and Frank Verdonck Abstract The A(H5N8) highly pathogenic avian influenza (HPAI) epidemic occurred in 29 European countries in 2016/2017 and has been the largest ever recorded in the EU in terms of number of poultry outbreaks, geographical extent and number of dead wild birds. Multiple primary incursions temporally related with all major poultry sectors affected but secondary spread was most commonly associated with domestic waterfowl species. A massive effort of all the affected EU Member States (MSs) allowed a descriptive epidemiological overview of the cases in poultry, captive birds and wild birds, providing also information on measures applied at the individual MS level. Data on poultry population structure are required to facilitate data and risk factor analysis, hence to strengthen science-based advice to risk managers. It is suggested to promote common understanding and application of definitions related to control activities and their reporting across MSs. Despite a large number of human exposures to infected poultry occurred during the ongoing outbreaks, no transmission to humans has been identified. Monitoring the avian influenza (AI) situation in other continents indicated a potential risk of long-distance spread of HPAI virus (HPAIV) A(H5N6) from Asia to wintering grounds towards Western Europe, similarly to what happened with HPAIV A(H5N8) and HPAIV A(H5N1) in previous years.
