We used GEE models to estimate ratio of rate ratios (RRR). The results showed HF with ACT had no significant effect on hospitalization rates among HN participants, but reduced the number of days in hospital (RRR = 0.32, 95% CI 0.16-0.63) and number of ED visits (RRR = 0.57, 95% CI 0.34-0.95). HF with ICM resulted in an increase in the number of hospitalizations (RRR = 1.69, 95% CI 1.09-2.60) and ED visit rates (RRR = 1.42, 95% CI 1.01-2.01) but had no effect in days in hospital for MN participants. Addressing the health needs of this population and reducing acute care utilization remain system priorities. Trial registration http//www.isrctn.com/identifier ISRCTN42520374.The Ontario Integrated Supervised Injection Services cohort in Toronto, Canada (OiSIS-Toronto) is an open prospective cohort of people who inject drugs (PWID). OiSIS-Toronto was established to evaluate the impacts of supervised consumption services (SCS) integrated within three community health agencies on health status and service use. The cohort includes PWID who do and do not use SCS, recruited via self-referral, snowball sampling, and community/street outreach. From 5 November 2018 to 19 March 2020, we enrolled 701 eligible PWID aged 18+ who lived in Toronto. Participants complete interviewer-administered questionnaires at baseline and semi-annually thereafter and are asked to consent to linkages with provincial healthcare administrative databases (90.2% consented; of whom 82.4% were successfully linked) and SCS client databases. At baseline, 86.5% of participants (64.0% cisgender men, median ([IQR] age= 39 [33-49]) had used SCS in the previous 6 months, of whom most (69.7%) used SCS for less then 75% of their injections. A majority (56.8%) injected daily, and approximately half (48.0%) reported fentanyl as their most frequently injected drug. As of 23 April 2021, 291 (41.5%) participants had returned for follow-up. Administrative and self-report data are being used to (1) evaluate the impact of integrated SCS on healthcare use, uptake of community health agency services, and health outcomes; (2) identify barriers and facilitators to SCS use; and (3) identify potential enhancements to SCS delivery. Nested sub-studies include evaluation of "safer opioid supply" programs and impacts of COVID-19.An 82-year-old woman with severe aortic valve stenosis (AS) and a significant proximal right coronary artery (RCA) stenosis presented with decompensated heart failure and acute kidney injury. She was treated with intravascular ultrasound (IVUS)-guided percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) and trans-oesophageal echocardiography (TOE)-guided transcatheter aortic valve replacement (TAVR).

(1) To investigate correlations between different types of FAI and the ratio of acetabular volume (AV) to femoral head volume (FV) on MR arthrography. (2) To assess 2D/3D measurements in identifying different types of FAI by means of cut-off values of AV/FV ratio (AFR).

Alpha angle, cranial acetabular version, acetabular depth, lateral center edge angle, AV, and FV of 52 hip MR arthrography were measured. ANOVA test correlated different types of FAI with AFR. ROC curves classified FAI by cut-off values of AFR. Accuracy of 2D/3D measurements was calculated.

ANOVA test showed a significant difference of AFR (p value < 0.001) among the three types of FAI. The mean values of AFR were 0.64, 0.74, and 0.89 in cam, mixed, and pincer types, respectively. Cut-off values of AFR were 0.70 to distinguish cam types from mixed and pincer types, and 0.79 to distinguish pincer types from cam and mixed types. Cut-off values identified 100%, 73.9%, and 55.6% of pincer, cam, and mixed types. 2D and 3D classifications of FAI showed accuracy of 40.4% and 73.0%.

3D measurements were clearly more accurate than 2D measurements. Distinct cut-off values of AFR discriminated cam types from pincer types and identified pincer types in all cases. Cam and mixed types were not accurately recognized.

The study sought to determine coronary artery diameter in congenital coronary-cameral fistula (cCCF), factors associated with coronary artery aneurysm, coronary artery changes after fistula closure, and computed tomographic (CT) findings after treatment.

We retrospectively reviewed CT findings of the cCCF for origins, terminations, fistula length, complexities, and Sakakibara classification. Coronary artery diameter was expressed as coronary artery Z score. Fistula features associated with coronary artery aneurysm were analyzed. Post-fistula closures were analyzed for coronary artery dilatation, coronary thrombosis, complete fistula closure, and fistula thrombosis.

Twenty-five patients (median age 33months, interquartile range, IQR 25-48) were included. Coronary feeders and terminations were frequently right coronary artery (48%) and right ventricle (56%), respectively. Fistula aneurysm occurred in 52% of cases. Mean coronary artery Z score was 13.03 ± 6.36 with a high incidence of giant coronary artery aneurysm (68%). We found no statistically significant risk factors associated with coronary artery aneurysm (p value range 0.075-0.370). Median duration of the follow-up CT after closure of the fistulas was 6.4months (IQR 5.0-8.7). Coronary artery Z score significantly decreased by 0.82 (IQR 0.28-1.35), p = 0.006 and coronary thrombosis occurred in 23% of cases during follow-up.

Large coronary aneurysm is common in cCCF. No characteristic feature of the fistula influencing coronary artery aneurysm is identified. There is a diminution in coronary artery Z score after fistula closure. Coronary thrombosis is a major complication after treatment.
