19. Circadian distribution of in-hospital cardiopulmonary arrests on the general medical ward

Abstract

* Background.--A circadian pattern has been convincingly demonstrated for the onset of many outpatient ischemic vascular events. A morning peak exists for the onset of acute myocardial infarction, sudden cardiac death, reversible myocardial ischemia, and ischemic stroke. Data regarding circadian patterns of disease in hospitalized patients, however, are lacking. We examined in-hospital cardiopulmonary arrest (CPA) occurring on the general medical ward to determine if a circadian distribution existed in time of onset. Methods.--All CPAs that occurred during a 9-month period and met entry criteria were included for study. The day was divided into 4-hour intervals and analyses were performed for evidence of periodicity in time of onset. The CPAs were then divided into those that were 'expected' and those that were 'unexpected,' and further analyses of periodicity were performed. Results.--For the total study population (137 patients), a primary peak frequency of CPA occurred during the interval from 4 to 7:59 AM, and a secondary peak frequency occurred during the 8 to 11:59 PM interval. A minimum frequency occurred during the midnight to 3:59 AM interval. The onset of unexpected CPA peaked during the 4 to 7:59 AM interval, and expected CPA followed no circadian pattern. Conclusions.--Our analysis of CPA occurring in patients hospitalized on the general medical ward demonstrated a circadian pattern of onset that favored the early-morning hours. This pattern is predominantly due to unexpected CPA. If further study confirms our observations, changes in the prophylaxis of in-hospital CPA and adjustments in staff responses to its occurrence may be indicated. (Arch Intern Med. 1992;152:1282-1288)

20. Occupational and non-occupational risk factors in relation to an excess of primary liver cancer observed among residents of Brooklyn, New York

Abstract

From 1976 to 1983, 632 deaths due to primary liver cancer (PLC) were recorded in Brooklyn, New York. This number exceeds the national average, so a study was conducted to examine the factors involved in this excess mortality. The high death rate affected both sexes and all racial groups. An examination of occupational factors revealed that household workers, non-domestic cleaning and food service workers, protective service workers, and transport equipment operators were all shown to have an increased risk of primary liver cancer. However, the distribution of occupations in Brooklyn in not significantly different from the rest of the nation, and it is unlikely that the excess of Brooklyn PLC deaths were due to occupational factors. It is worthy of note, however, that many of the occupations with high risk for PLC are also occupations which have a high mortality rate due to cirrhosis of the liver. In addition, Brooklyn residents have excess mortality due to cirrhosis as well as PLC. If cirrhosis, which in developed countries is generally a consequence of alcoholism, is, as some believe, a causative factor in primary liver cancer, the excess of PLC observed in Brooklyn may be accounted for.

25. Using probabilities of enterococci exceedance and logistic regression to evaluate long term weekly beach monitoring data.

Abstract

Recreational water quality surveillance involves comparing bacterial levels to set threshold values to determine beach closure. Bacterial levels can be predicted through models which are traditionally based upon multiple linear regression. The objective of this study was to evaluate exceedance probabilities, as opposed to bacterial levels, as an alternate method to express beach risk. Data were incorporated into a logistic regression for the purpose of identifying environmental parameters most closely correlated with exceedance probabilities. The analysis was based on 7,422 historical sample data points from the years 2000-2010 for 15 South Florida beach sample sites. Probability analyses showed which beaches in the dataset were most susceptible to exceedances. No yearly trends were observed nor were any relationships apparent with monthly rainfall or hurricanes. Results from logistic regression analyses found that among the environmental parameters evaluated, tide was most closely associated with exceedances, with exceedances 2.475 times more likely to occur at high tide compared to low tide. The logistic regression methodology proved useful for predicting future exceedances at a beach location in terms of probability and modeling water quality environmental parameters with dependence on a binary response. This methodology can be used by beach managers for allocating resources when sampling more than one beach. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
