    Abstract The COVID-19 pandemic forced United States school closures in March 2020. Students moved to online learning, fostering a sedentary lifestyle. As the pandemic heightened population disparities, the impact on weight gain may also be unequally distributed. This study aimed to evaluate changes in body mass index (BMI) z-scores and weight percentiles of pediatric patients during the pandemic and associated demographics to identify those at risk for weight gain. Methods included a retrospective chart review of patients 5-18 years-old with a well-visit in the three years 2018, 2019 and 2020; first identified with a well-visit in August-September of 2020. BMI z-scores and weight percentiles were analyzed using a correlated errors regression model appropriate for longitudinal data. This longitudinal approach was used to model outcomes by patient demographics. Interaction terms with time were evaluated for each variable. Of 728 patients, mean age was 9.7 years (2018); 47 % female, 70 % white, and 23 % publicly insured. BMI z-score did not increase significantly from 2018-2019 versus 2019-2020. Weight percentile demonstrated a slight trajectory increase over these same time points. Publicly insured patients demonstrated significantly greater increase in BMI z-score versus privately insured patients (p = 0.009). Mean differences between groups increased from 0.26 in 2018 (95 % CI [0.07, 0.45]) to 0.42 in 2020 (95 % CI [0.23, 0.61]). Results were similar for weight percentile. Publicly insured pediatric patients experienced significant increase in BMI-z score and weight percentile, but over time this trajectory remained constant. The results support targeting at risk subgroups in addressing long-term impacts of the pandemic.

    Abstract Background: This investigation sought to determine whether early season rates of pediatric influenza vaccination changed in a season when there was a concurrent COVID-19 pandemic.
    Methods: This study used cohort and cross sectional data from an academic primary care division in Southcentral Pennsylvania that serves approximately 17,500 patients across 4 practice sites. Early season (prior to November 1) vaccination rates in 2018, 2019 and 2020 were recorded for children, age 6 months to 17 years. To explore the impact of COVID-19 on vaccination, we fit a model with a logit link (estimated via generalized estimating equations to account for clustering by patient over time) on calendar year, adjusted for race, ethnicity, age, and insurance type. We examined interaction effects of demographic covariates with calendar year.
    Results: Early vaccination rates were lower in 2020 (29.7%) compared with 2018 and 2019 (34.2% and 33.3%). After adjusting for covariates and accounting for clustering over time, the odds of early vaccination in 2020 were 19% lower compared to 2018 (OR 0.81, 95% CI: 0.78-0.85). In 2020, children with private insurance were more likely to receive early vaccination than in 2018 (OR 1.51, 95% CI: 1.04-1.15), whereas children with public insurance were less likely to receive early vaccination in 2020 than in 2018 (OR 0.62, 95% CI: 1.38-1.65).
    Conclusions: Early influenza vaccination rates declined in a year with a concurrent COVID-19 pandemic. Modeling that accounts for individual trends and demographic variables identified specific populations with lower odds of early vaccination in 2020. Additional research is needed to investigate whether the COVID-19 pandemic impacted parental intent to obtain the influenza vaccine, or introduced barriers to healthcare access.

    Abstract Objective: To increase blood lead level screening rates in children at 12- and 24-month well visits through provider education and the implementation of a point-of-care (POC) lead screening program in 4 primary care practice offices located in and neighbored by counties with ≥5% prevalence of blood lead levels ≥5 μg/dL.
    Study design: Baseline data were collected July 2017 to June 2018. All providers received education on screening recommendations and local prevalence of elevated blood lead levels in July 2018. POC testing began June 2019 at 1 of the 4 practice sites. Screening rates were measured by electronic medical record abstraction. Rates were plotted monthly on statistical process control charts during implementation and analyzed using logistic regression under an interrupted time series approach for program evaluation.
    Results: There was a small but significant increase in screening following provider education (OR 1.04 per month, 95% CI 1.02-1.07). POC testing was associated with a substantial immediate increase (OR 4.17, 95% CI 2.45-7.09) and a substantial continued increase (OR 1.34 per month, 95% CI 1.17-1.54) in screening at the site that implemented POC.
    Conclusions: POC testing substantially increases blood lead level screening rates at 12- and 24-month well visits and may be beneficial in other primary care settings.

    Abstract Introduction/background: Patients with Coronavirus Disease 2019 (COVID-19) present with a spectrum of respiratory symptoms. There are no studies describing respiratory system involvement adjusted for other organ systems, oxygen saturation nadir, hospitalization days until respiratory involvement, proportion of days of respiratory system involvement, and persistent respiratory involvement at discharge in COVID-19 patients. We studied these parameters in COVID-19 patients that received respiratory therapy interventions and their association with mortality and length of stay (LOS).
    Methods: A single-center cross-sectional retrospective study of 738 COVID-19 patients with respiratory involvement at a hospital in the New York metropolitan area.
    Results: COVID-19 patients with respiratory involvement had increased mortality with oxygen requirement of FiO
    Conclusions: Among all respiratory parameters, high oxygen requirements and low oxygen saturation nadir are the most predictive of COVID-19 prognosis.

    Abstract Background and aims: We investigate the impact of blood glucose on mortality and hospital length of stay (HLOS) among COVID-19 patients.
    Methods: Retrospective study of 456 patients with confirmed COVID-19 and glycemic dysregulation in the New York City area.
    Results: We found that impaired glucose adjusted for other organs systems involved (OR:1.87; 95% CI:1.36-2.57, p < 0.001), increased glucose nadir (OR:34.28; 95% CI:3.97-296.05, p < 0.01) and abnormal blood glucose levels at discharge (OR:5.07; 95% CI:2.31-11.14, p < 0.001) were each significantly associated with increased odds for mortality. New or higher from baseline insulin requirement during hospitalization (OR:0.34; 95% CI:0.15-0.78; p < 0.05) was significantly associated with decreased odds for mortality. Increased glucose peak (B = 0.001, SE=<0.001, p < 0.001), new or higher from baseline insulin requirement during hospitalization (B = 0.11, SE = 0.03, p < 0.001), and increased days to dysglycemia (B = 0.15, SE = 0.04, p < 0.001) were each significantly associated with increased HLOS. Increased glucose nadir (B = -0.67, SE = 0.07, p < 0.001), insulin intravenous drip (B = -0.10, SE = 0.05, p < 0.05), and increased proportion days endocrine system involved (B = -0.25, SE = 0.06, p < 0.001) were each significantly associated with decreased HLOS.
    Conclusion: Glucose dysregulation adversely affects mortality and HLOS in COVID-19. These data can help clinicians to guide patient treatment and management in COVID-19 patients.

    Abstract The COVID-19 pandemic forced United States school closures in March 2020. Students moved to online learning, fostering a sedentary lifestyle. As the pandemic heightened population disparities, the impact on weight gain may also be unequally distributed.

    Abstract Background: Renal involvement in COVID-19 leads to severe disease and higher mortality. We study renal parameters in COVID-19 patients and their association with mortality and length of stay in hospital.
    Methods: A retrospective study (n=340) of confirmed COVID-19 patients with renal involvement determined by the presence of acute kidney injury. Multivariate analyses of logistic regression for mortality and linear regression for length of stay (LOS) adjusted for relevant demographic, comorbidity, disease severity, and treatment covariates.
    Results: Mortality was 54.4% and mean LOS was 12.9 days. For mortality, creatinine peak (OR:35.27, 95% CI:2.81, 442.06, p<0.01) and persistent renal involvement at discharge (OR:4.47, 95% CI:1.99,10.06, p<0.001) were each significantly associated with increased odds for mortality. Increased blood urea nitrogen peak (OR:0.98, 95%CI:0.97,0.996, p<0.05) was significantly associated with decreased odds for mortality. For LOS, increased blood urea nitrogen peak (B:0.001, SE:<0.001, p<0.01), renal replacement therapy (B:0.19, SE:0.06, p<0.01), and increased days to acute kidney injury (B:0.19, SE:0.05, p<0.001) were each significantly associated with increased length of stay.
    Conclusion: Our study emphasizes the importance in identifying renal involvement parameters in COVID-19 patients. These parameters are associated with LOS and mortality, and may assist clinicians to prognosticate COVID-19 patients with renal involvement.

    Abstract Background: The Acute Physiologic and Chronic Health Evaluation II (APACHE-II), Sequential Organ Failure Assessment (SOFA), and Model for End-Stage Liver Disease modified for Sodium concentration (MELD-Na) scores are validated to predict disease mortality. We studied the prognostic utility of these scoring systems in critically ill coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) patients with liver injury.
    Methods: This was a retrospective study of 291 confirmed COVID-19 and liver injury patients requiring intensive care unit level of care. These patients required supplemental oxygen requirement with fraction of inspired oxygen >55% and/or the use of vasopressor. MELD-Na, SOFA, and APACHE-II scores were adjusted. Outcomes were mortality and length of stay (LOS).
    Results: SOFA (odds ratio: 0.78, 95% confidence interval: 0.63-0.98,
    Conclusions: We suggest that the novel nature of COVID-19 necessitates new scoring systems to predict outcomes in critically ill COVID-19 patients with liver injury.
