Recent evidence suggests that obesity increases the risk of severe outcomes following respiratory infection. It is less clear whether obesity is associated with the risk of being infected with influenza or other respiratory pathogens. Therefore, we examined the association between obesity and outpatient visits for acute respiratory infections (ARIs). We conducted a retrospective cohort study for a period of over 13 years on 104 665 individuals in Ontario, Canada who responded to population health ...

Background/Objectives To estimate the prevalence of potentially inappropriate medication ( PIM ) use among older adults with cognitive impairment or dementia prior to and following admission to nursing homes and in relation to frailty. Design Retrospective cohort study using health administrative databases. Setting Ontario, Canada. Participants 41,351 individuals with cognitive impairment or dementia, aged 66+ years newly admitted to nursing home between 2011 and 2014. Measurements PIM s were defined ...

Objectives To examine the variability of statin use among nursing home residents and prescribing physicians, and to assess statin use by resident frailty. Design Population‐based, cross‐sectional analysis. Setting All nursing home facilities (N = 631) in Ontario, Canada between April 1, 2013 and March 31, 2014. Participants All adults aged 66 years and older who received a full clinical assessment while residing in a nursing home facility and their assigned, most responsible, physician. Measurements ...

BACKGROUND: Understanding the extent to which current antibiotic prescribing behaviour is influenced by clinicians' historical patterns of practice will help target interventions to optimize antibiotic use in long-term care. Our objective was to evaluate whether clinicians' historical prescribing behaviours influence the start, prolongation and class selection for treatment with antibiotics in residents of long-term care facilities. METHODS: We conducted a retrospective cohort study of all physicians who prescribed ...

BACKGROUND: Guidance from randomized clinical trials about the ongoing benefits of statin therapies in residents of long-term care facilities is lacking. We sought to examine the effect of statin dose on 1-year survival and admission to hospital for cardiovascular events in this setting. METHODS: We conducted a retrospective cohort study using population-based administrative data from Ontario, Canada. We identified 21 808 residents in long-term care facilities who were 76 years of age and older and were prevalent ...

Objectives To evaluate whether risk of fall‐related injuries differs between nursing home (NH) residents newly dispensed low‐dose trazodone and those newly dispensed benzodiazepines. Design Retrospective, matched cohort study in linked, population‐based administrative data. Matching was based on propensity score ( ± 0.2 standard deviations of the score as a caliper), age ( ± 1 year), sex, frailty status, and history of dementia. The derived propensity score included demographic characteristics, clinical ...

Prescribing patterns for episodic medications, such as antibiotics, might make useful surrogate measures of a physician's overall prescribing practice because use is common, and variation exists across prescribers. However, the extent to which a physician's current antibiotic prescribing practices are associated with the rate of prescription of other potentially harmful medications remains unknown.To examine the association between a physician's rate of antibiotic prescribing and their prescribing ...

An innovative production technique is described for the low-cost production of arrays of interdigitated electrode (IDE) structures. The resulting polymer chips form the basis of a new type of diagnostic device allowing for the impedimetric detection of either hybridisation or immuno-affinity binding of antibody-antigen combinations. Sensitivity of the IDEs is maximised by focusing the field of sensitivity to the molecules of interest by lowering the electrode dimensions and spacing to the sub-micron ...

Introduction: It is estimated that 6% to 13% of patients presenting to the emergency department (ED) with vaginal bleeding or abdominal pain will have ectopic pregnancy. Risk factors such as previous pelvic infections, assisted reproductive technologies and previous tubal surgery as well as prevalence of ectopic pregnancy vary geographically. To date, the surveillance of ectopic pregnancy in Canada has been limited to hospitalized patient data, excluding patients receiving methotrexate therapy, day ...

IntroductionAnnual evaluation of influenza vaccine effectiveness (VE) is required because of frequent changes to circulating and vaccine strains. Traditionally, VE studies enroll patients who fulfill case definitions for respiratory infections and are tested for influenza. VE estimates generated from convenience samples of routinely collected specimens might be biased. Objectives and ApproachWe assessed the validity of using data from respiratory specimens collected during clinical encounters to ...
