Introduction: Hypertension has been reported as one of the most common risk factor causing atrial fibrillation (AF). Also, hypertension is associated with more persistent AF. However the epidemiology for incidence of hypertensive emergency in AF hospitalization is not well documented. Hypothesis: We hypothesize that frequency of hypertensive emergency has been increasingly associated with Atrial fibrillation. Methods: National inpatient sample from 2005 -2015 was used for the present analysis. Patients over 18 years, with AF as the primary diagnosis were identified using International Classification of Diseases, Ninth Revision-Clinical Modification (ICD-9-CM) code, 427.31. Patients with hypertensive emergency were identified using ICD-9-CM code. 401.0, 402.0, 403.0, 404.0, 405.0. Results: A total of 4,988,269 AF patients over 18 years of age were included in the present analysis. Of these hospitalization 49,423 had hypertensive emergency during hospitalizations and the rest 4,938,846 had no hypertensive emergency. There was a monotonic increase in the trend of rates of hypertensive emergency per 1000 AF hospitalizations, from 2005 - 2015. (P value <0.001) [Figure 1]. Conclusion: There has been a significant increase in the rates of hypertensive emergency among AF hospitalization, over the past decade. Further research is needed to investigate the reason for this increased trend.

Cardiac Manifestation

Introduction: Atrial fibrillation (Afib) is a common cardiac manifestation of hyperthyroidism. The data regarding outcomes of A fib with and without hyperthyroidism are lacking. Hypothesis: We hypothesized that patients with Afib and hyperthyroidism have better clinical outcomes, compared with Afib patients without hyperthyroidism. Methods: We queried National Inpatient Sample database for years 2015 - 2017 using Validated International Classification of Diseases and Clinical Modification (ICD-10-CM) codes for atrial fibrillation and hyperthyroidism. Patients were separated into 2 groups- A fib with hyperthyroidism and A fib without hyperthyroidism. Results: Study was conducted on 68,095,278 pateints. A total of 9,727,295 Afib patients were identified, out of which 90,635(0.9%) had hyperthyroidism. The prevalence of hyperthyroidism was higher in patients with Afib (0.9% vs 0.4%, p value <0.001), compared with patients without A fib. Using multivariate regression analysis after adjusting for various confounding factors, the odds ratio of Afib with hyperthyroidism was 2.08 (CI 2.07 - 2.10 P<.0001). Afib patients with hyperthyroidism were younger, (70.9 vs75.1 years, p<0.0001) and more likely to be female (63.9% vs 47% p<0.0001) as compared with Afib patients without hyperthyroidism. Afib patients with hyperthyroidism had lower prevalence of CAD (36.4% vs 43.8%,p<0.0001), cardiomyopathy(24.1% vs 25.9%,p<0.0001), valvular disease (6.9% vs 7.4%,p<0.0001), hypertension(60.7% vs 64.4%,p<0.0001) , and diabetes mellitus (28.9% vs 31.8%,p<0.0001). Afib with hyperthyroidism group had lower all-cause mortality (3.3% vs 4.8%, p<0.0001), shorter mean length of stay (5.7 ±6.6 vs 5.9±6.6 days,p<0.0001) and hospitalization cost ($14968±21871 vs $15955±22233, p<0.0001). The disposition to home was higher in Afib with hyperthyroidism patients (50.6% vs 41.8 p<0.0001). Conclusions: Presence of hyperthyroidism is associated with Afib in both univariate and multivariate analysis. Afib patients with hyperthyroidism have better clinical outcomes, compared with Afib patients without hyperthyroidism.

The association between anemia and Takotsubo cardiomyopathy (TCM) has not been well studied. To assess the effect of anemia on patients hospitalized with TCM, we identified 4733 patients with a primary diagnosis of TCM from the 2016 to 2018 National Inpatient Sample (NIS) database (the United States) using the International Classification of Diseases, 10th edition, Clinical Modification ( ICD-10-CM) code. Of these, 603 (12.7%) patients had a comorbidity of anemia and 4130 did not. After propensity score matching, we compared the in-hospital outcomes between the 2 groups (anemia vs nonanemia, n = 594 vs 1137). Patients with TCM with anemia had significantly higher rates of in-hospital complications, including cardiogenic shock (11.4% vs 4.0%, P < .001), ventricular arrhythmia (6.6% vs 3.6%, P = .008), acute kidney injury (22.7% vs 13.1%, P < .001), acute respiratory failure (22.6% vs 13.1%, P < .001), longer length of hospital stay (5.6 ± 5.8 days vs 3.6 ± 3.6 days, P < .001), and higher total charges (US$79 586 ± 10 2436 vs US$50 711 ± 42 639, P < .001). In conclusion, patients with anemia who were admitted for TCM were associated with a higher incidence of in-hospital complications compared with those without anemia.

The Impact

ObjectiveTo determine trends and impact on outcomes of atrial fibrillation (AF) in patients with pre-existing psychosis.BackgroundWhile post-AF psychosis has been extensively studied, contemporary studies including temporal trends on the impact of pre-AF psychosis on AF and post-AF outcomes are largely lacking.MethodsWe used Nationwide Inpatient Sample (NIS) from the healthcare cost and utilization project (HCUP) from year's 2002–2012. We identified AF and psychosis as primary and secondary diagnosis respectively using validated international classification of diseases, 9th revision, and Clinical Modification (ICD-9-CM) codes, and used Cochrane–Armitage trend test and multivariate regression to generate adjusted odds ratios (aOR).ResultsWe analyzed total of 3.887.827AF hospital admissions from 2002–2012 of which 1.76% had psychosis. Proportion of hospitalizations with psychosis increased from 5.23% to 14.28% (P trend < 0.001). Utilization of atrial-cardioversion was lower in patients with psychosis (0.76%v vs. 5.79%, P < 0.001). In-hospital mortality was higher in patients with Psychosis (aOR 1.206; 95%CI 1.003–1.449; P < 0.001) and discharge to specialty care was significantly higher (aOR 4.173; 95%CI 3.934–4.427; P < 0.001). The median length of hospitalization (3.13 vs. 2.14 days; P < 0.001) and median cost of hospitalization (16.457 vs. 13.172; P < 0.001) was also higher in hospitalizations with psychosis.ConclusionsOur study displayed an increasing proportion of patients with Psychosis admitted due to AF with higher mortality and extremely higher morbidity post-AF, and significantly less utilization of atrial-cardioversion. There is a need to explore reasons behind this disparity to improve post-AF outcomes in this vulnerable population.Disclosure of interestThe authors have not supplied their declaration of competing interest.

Introduction: Even though atrial fibrillation (AF) is present in >30% of patients with aortic stenosis (AS), it is not typically included in the decision-making algorithm for the timing or need for aortic valve replacement (AVR), either by transcatheter (TAVR) or surgical (SAVR) approaches. Large scale data on how AF affects outcomes of AS patients remain scarce. Methods: From the Nationwide Readmissions Database (NRD), we retrospectively identified AS patients aged ≥18years, with and without AF admitted between January and June in 2016 and 2017 (to allow for a six month follow up), using the International Classification of Diseases-10 th revision codes. Multivariable logistic regression was performed to examine the predictors of in-hospital mortality during index hospitalization. In-hospital complications and 6 month in-hospital mortality during any readmission after being discharged alive were compared in patients with and without AF, for patients undergoing TAVR, SAVR or no-AVR. Results: We identified 403,089 AS patients, of which 41% had AF. Patients with AF were older (median age in years: 83 vs. 79) and were more frequently females (52% vs. 48%; p<0.001). Table summarizes outcomes of AS patients with and without AF. TAVR in patients with AF was associated with higher in-hospital mortality and follow-up mortality as compared to patients without AF. Although AF did not influence in-hospital mortality in SAVR population, follow-up mortality was also significantly higher after SAVR in patients with AF compared to patients without AF. For patients not undergoing AVR, in-hospital and follow-up mortality were higher in AF population compared to no AF and was higher than patients undergoing AVR (Table). Conclusions: AF is associated with worse outcomes in patients with AS irrespective of treatment (TAVR, SAVR or no-AVR). More studies are needed to understand the implications of AF in AS population and whether earlier treatment of AS in patients with AF can improve outcomes.

Background: The objective of this study was to evaluate the impact of left atrial appendage (LAA) exclusion on short-term outcomes in patients with atrial fibrillation undergoing isolated coronary artery bypass graft surgery. Methods: We queried the 2010 to 2014 National Readmissions Database for patients who underwent coronary artery bypass graft repair with and without LAA ligation by using International Classification of Diseases, Ninth Revision, Clinical Modification procedure codes ( International Classification of Diseases, Ninth Revision, Clinical Modification : 36.1xx). Only patients with a history of atrial fibrillation were included in our analysis. The primary outcome of our study was 30-day readmissions following discharge. Secondary outcomes were in-hospital mortality and stroke. To assess the postoperative outcomes, we used multivariate logistic regression models to adjust for clinical and demographic covariates. Results: In total, we analyzed 253 287 patients undergoing coronary artery bypass graft surgery, 7.0% of whom received LAA closure. LAA exclusion was associated with a greater risk of postoperative respiratory failure (8.2% versus 6.2%, P <0.0001) and acute kidney injury (21.8% versus 18.5%, P <0.0001), but it did not significantly change the rate of blood transfusions or occurrence of cardiac tamponade. LAA exclusion was associated with a nonsignificant reduction in stroke (7.9% versus 8.6%, P =0.12), no difference in in-hospital mortality (2.2% versus 2.2% P =0.99), and a greater risk of 30-day readmission (16.0% versus 9.6%, P <0.0001). After covariate adjustment, LAA ligation remained a significant predictor of 30-day readmission (odds ratio, 1.640 [95% CI, 1.603–1.677], P <0.0001). Conclusions: LAA exclusion during isolated coronary artery bypass graft surgery in patients with atrial fibrillation is associated with a higher rate of 30-day readmission. Postoperative measures to mitigate the loss of the hormonal and hemodynamic effects of the LAA may increase the therapeutic benefit of this procedure.

Introduction Cannabinoid users are at high risk of developing atrial arrhythmias. We sought to investigate the outcomes and the economic impact of marijuana use on patients with atrial fibrillation utilizing the National Inpatient Sample. Materials and Methods Patients with atrial fibrillation were identified in the National Inpatient Sample (NIS) database between 2012 and 2014 using the International Classification of Diseases, 9th Revision, Clinical Modification (ICD-9-CM), who subsequently were divided into two groups, those with and without marijuana smoking. The primary outcome was all-cause in-hospital mortality in the two groups. Secondary outcomes were in-hospital morbidities, required procedures and complications. We also evaluated the length of hospital stay and the cost of hospitalization. Logistic regression model was performed to address potential confounding factors. Results: The marijuana-users group had no significant increase of in-hospital mortality (OR: 1.24; 95% CI: 0.51 - 3.01, p = 0.632). However, marijuana users were predominantly younger males and less likely to undergo cardiac surgery (OR: 0.54, 95% CI 0.37 - 0.78, p = 0.001). Moreover, marijuana users are more likely to have a lower cost of hospitalization when compared to non-users ($28,916 vs $32,303, p = 0.001). Conclusion: Cannabinoid use was not associated with an increase in mortality among patients admitted with atrial fibrillation. However, marijuana users were younger, had fewer comorbidities, and cardiac surgeries with associated lower hospitalization costs. Admittedly, given the growing popularity of these products, further large prospective studies are needed to investigate the safety and evaluate different integral associations of cannabis use with worse cardiac outcomes in atrial arrhythmias patients, particularly those with atrial fibrillation.

Background Randomized trials of pharmacologic strength omega‐3 fatty acid (n3‐FA)–based therapies suggest a dose‐dependent cardiovascular benefit. Whether blood n3‐FA levels also mediate safety signals observed in these trials, such as increased bleeding and atrial fibrillation (AF), remains uncertain. We hypothesized that higher baseline n3‐FA levels would be associated with incident bleeding and AF events in MESA (Multi‐Ethnic Study of Atherosclerosis), which included a population free of clinical cardiovascular disease at baseline. Methods and Results We examined the association between baseline plasma n3‐FA levels (expressed as percent mass of total fatty acid) with incident bleeding and AF in MESA, an ongoing prospective cohort study. Bleeding events were identified from review of hospitalization International Classification of Diseases, Ninth Revision ( ICD‐9 ), and International Classification of Diseases, Tenth Revision ( ICD‐10 ), codes, and AF from participant report, discharge diagnoses, Medicare claims data, and study ECGs performed at MESA visit 5. Separate multivariable Cox proportional hazard modeling was used to estimate hazard ratios of the association of continuous n3‐FA (log eicosapentaenoic acid [EPA], log docosahexaenoic acid [DHA], log [EPA+DHA]) and incident hospitalized bleeding events and AF. Among 6546 participants, the mean age was 62.1 years and 53% were women. For incident bleeding, consistent statistically significant associations with lower rates were seen with increasing levels of EPA and EPA+DHA in unadjusted and adjusted models including medications that modulate bleeding risk (aspirin, NSAIDS, corticosteroids, and proton pump inhibitors). For incident AF, a significant association with lower rates was seen with increasing levels of DHA, but not for EPA or EPA+DHA. Conclusions In MESA, higher plasma levels of n3‐FA (EPA and EPA+DHA, but not DHA) were associated with significantly fewer hospitalized bleeding events, and higher DHA levels (but not EPA or EPA+DHA) with fewer incident AF events.

The epidemiology of myocarditis is unknown and based mainly on small single-centre studies. The study aimed to evaluate the current incidence, clinical characteristics, management and outcomes of patients hospitalized due to myocarditis in a general population. The study was registered in ClinicalTrials.gov (NCT04827706). The nationwide MYO-PL (the occurrence, trends, management and outcomes of patients with myocarditis in Poland) database (years 2009–2020) was created to identify hospitalization records with a primary diagnosis of myocarditis according to the International Classification of Diseases and Related Health Problems, 10th Revision (ICD 10), derived from the database of the national healthcare insurer. We identified 19,978 patients who were hospitalized with suspected myocarditis for the first time, of whom 74% were male. The standardized incidence rate of myocarditis ranged from 1.15 to 14 per 100,000 people depending on the age group and was the highest in patients aged 16–20 years. The overall incidence increased with time. The performance of the recommended diagnostic tests (in particular, endomyocardial biopsy) was low. Relative five-year survival ranged from 0.99 to 0.56—worse in younger females and older males. During a five-year follow-up, 6% of patients (3.7% and 6.9% in females and males, respectively) were re-hospitalized for myocarditis. Surprisingly, females more frequently required hospitalization due to heart failure/cardiomyopathy (10.5%) and atrial fibrillation (5%) than compared to males (7.3% and 2.2%, respectively) in the five-year follow up. In the last ten years, the incidence of suspected myocarditis increased, particularly in males. Survival rates for patients with myocarditis were worse than in the general population. Management of myocarditis requires significant improvement.

Abstract. Introduction: With advances in medicine, our understanding of diseases has deepened and diagnostic criteria have evolved. Currently, the most frequently used diagnostic systems are the ICD (International Classification of Diseases) and the DSM (Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders) to diagnose alcohol-related disorders. Results: In this narrative review, we follow the historical developments in ICD and DSM with their corresponding milestones reflecting the scientific research and medical considerations of their time. The current diagnostic concepts of DSM-5 and ICD-11 and their development are presented. Lastly, we compare these two diagnostic systems and evaluate their practicability in clinical use.

Zusammenfassung. Hintergrund: Nach 12 Jahren Entwicklung wird die 11. Version der International Classification of Diseases (ICD-11) von der Weltgesundheitsorganisation (WHO) im Januar 2022 in Kraft treten. Methodik: Im Rahmen eines selektiven Übersichtsartikels werden die Veränderungen im Hinblick auf die Klassifikation von Angststörungen von der ICD-10 zur ICD-11 zusammenfassend dargestellt. Ergebnis: Die diagnostischen Kriterien der generalisierten Angststörung, Agoraphobie und spezifischen Phobien werden angepasst. Die ICD-11 wird auf Basis einer Lebenszeitachse neu organisiert, sodass die kindesaltersspezifischen Kategorien der ICD-10 aufgelöst werden. Die Trennungsangststörung und der selektive Mutismus werden damit den „regulären“ Angststörungen zugeordnet und können zukünftig auch im Erwachsenenalter diagnostiziert werden. Neu ist ebenso, dass verschiedene Symptomdimensionen der Angst ohne kategoriale Diagnose verschlüsselt werden können. Diskussion: Die Veränderungen im Bereich der Angsterkrankungen umfassen verschiedene Aspekte und sind in der Gesamtschau nicht unerheblich. Positiv zu bewerten ist die Einführung einer Lebenszeitachse und Parallelisierung mit dem Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders (DSM-5). Schlussfolgerungen: Die entwicklungsbezogene Neuorganisation in der ICD-11 wird auch eine verstärkte längsschnittliche Betrachtung von Angststörungen in der Klinik sowie Forschung zur Folge haben. Damit rückt insbesondere die Präventionsforschung weiter in den Fokus.
