Abstract

Abstract Objective This study aimed to link intracellular adenosine triphosphate content in CD4+ T lymphocytes (CD4+ iATP) with sepsis patient mortality, seeking a new predictive biomarker for outcomes and enhanced management. Methods 61 sepsis patients admitted to the Intensive Care Unit between October 2021 and November 2022 were enrolled. iATP levels were gauged using whole blood CD4+ T cells stimulated with mitogen PHA‐L. Based on CD4+ iATP levels (

Abstract

AIM To assess whether elderly patients are prioritized under the emergency triage system in Guangzhou, China. METHODS This was a cross-sectional survey of clinical data from adult visitors to the emergency department of the Third Affiliated Hospital of Sun Yat-sen University between 1 August 2015 and 31 December 2017. The primary end-point was receiving the first medical service within the target waiting time, which varied according to the triage level of the patient. Multivariate logistic regression was used to determine whether age was an independent predictor of a shorter waiting time. RESULTS Data from 262 282 emergency patients were analyzed. The mean age of patients was 35.97 years, and 7.5% were aged ≥65 years. In total, 88.3% of patients received medical service within the target waiting time, and 87.4% of elderly patients received medical service within the target waiting time. Multivariate logistic regression analysis showed that advanced age was independently associated with receiving medical service within the target waiting time (adjusted odds ratio 1.258, 95% confidence interval 1.198-1.321; P
