    Abstract The novel coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) has had a profound impact on healthcare systems around the world. The emergency department (ED) in particular has become the frontline for the identification and care of these patients. While its effects on respiratory symptoms are well recognized, neurologic manifestations have been rarer. We report the case of a patient who presented in cardiac arrest with the return of spontaneous circulation (ROSC). The patient was found to have subarachnoid hemorrhage and later tested positive for COVID-19.

    Abstract Background: The COVID-19 pandemic has demonstrated the significance of health disparities across populations with older adults and minoritized groups being disproportionately affected. Data during the COVID-19 pandemic demonstrated higher infection rates, hospitalization rates, morbidity, and potentially greater mortality in Black, Hispanic, and Native Americans compared to Whites.
    Methods: This is a retrospective cohort study of de-identified patient data from 178 hospitals across the United States. Outcome variables were the length of stay, in-hospital mortality, disease severity, and discharge disposition. Outcomes were stratified by sex and racial groups.
    Results: Of 45,360 patients, 22% were Black, 35% were Hispanic, 37% were White, and 6% were Other. The overall mortality rate was 15% across all groups but was 17% for White patients, 10% for Black patients, 14% for Hispanic patients, and 15% for patients categorized as Other. However, White patients have higher median age on admission (71 years) compared to Blacks (60 years), Hispanics (57 years), and Other (61 years). Race remained statistically significant in a multivariable model that included age, sex, and race. 6484 patients required ICU admission, intubation, and hemodynamic support. This burden was disproportionate across racial groups, with 15.6% of Blacks and 13.9% of non-Blacks having such critical disease (p < 0.0001, z-test for proportions).
    Conclusions: In this national study of admitted patients with COVID-19, White patients admitted were older on average compared to other racial/ethnic groups and had a higher mortality rate compared to non-Whites hospitalized for COVID-19. Black patients were significantly more likely to require admission to the ICU, mechanical ventilation, and hemodynamic support. These COVID-19 health disparities highlight the importance of addressing social and structural determinants of health.

    Abstract Introduction: Drug overdose represents a growing reason for emergency department visits and hospitalizations in the United States. Co-ingestion of multiple substances is also on the rise, and toxidromes can be seen from any of multiple drugs in a single patient.
    Case report: We present a case of diffuse alveolar hemorrhage secondary to cocaine abuse in a patient who was apneic and unresponsive after heroin overdose. The patient responded to supportive care and was discharged with complete return to physical and mental baseline.
    Conclusion: Clinicians must be vigilant for any number of concomitant toxidromes when a patient is brought in with complications following drug overdose.

    Abstract The novel coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) pandemic, caused by severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) that originated in China in late 2019, has caused significant morbidity and mortality worldwide. Although fever, cough, and shortness of breath have been recognized as hallmark symptoms, other lesser known complications continue to be described. We report a series of three patients who presented to the emergency department, who tested positive for COVID-19, and were found to have or subsequently developed thromboembolic complications.

    Abstract Pediatric allergic disease is a significant health concern worldwide, and the prevalence of childhood eczema, asthma, allergic rhinitis, and food allergy continues to increase. Evidence to support specific interventions for the prevention of eczema, asthma, and allergic rhinitis is limited, and no consensus on prevention strategies has been reached. Randomized controlled trials investigating the prevention of food allergy via oral tolerance induction and the early introduction of allergenic foods have been successful in reducing peanut and egg allergy prevalence. Infant weaning guidelines in the United Sates were recently amended to actively encourage the introduction of peanut for prevention of peanut allergy.

    Abstract Purpose: To evaluate the therapeutic benefit of a novel peptide, ALM201, in ocular pathologic vascularization.
    Design: Experimental study in mouse, rat, and rabbit animal models.
    Participants: Ten-week-old Lister Hooded male rats, 8-week-old Brown Norway male rats, 9-day-old C57BL/6J mice, and 12-month-old New Zealand male rabbits.
    Methods: Corneal vascularization was scored for vessel density and vessel distance to suture in a rat corneal suture model. Ocular penetration and biodistribution were evaluated by matrix-assisted laser desorption/ionization mass spectrometry imaging after topical ALM201 application to rabbit eyes. A mouse choroidal sprouting assay, with aflibercept as positive control, was used to evaluate choroidal neovascularization (CNV) in the posterior segment tissue. Efficacy of topical ALM201 was assessed using a rat laser CNV model of neovascular age-related macular degeneration.
    Main outcome measures: Clinical scoring and histologic analysis of vascularized corneas, sprouting area, lesion size, and vessel leakiness in posterior segments.
    Results: Assessment of ALM201 treatment in the rat corneal suture model showed a significant decrease in vessel density (
    Conclusions: ALM201 is a promising novel molecule with anti-inflammatory and antivascularization activity and is a strong candidate to meet the clinical need of a new, topically delivered therapeutic agent for treating inflammation and pathologic vascularization in the anterior and posterior segments of the eye.

    Abstract BACKGROUND: The Learning Early About Peanut allergy (LEAP) study has shown the effectiveness of early peanut introduction in prevention of peanut allergy (PA). In the Enquiring About Tolerance (EAT) study, a statistically significant reduction in PA was present only in per‐protocol (PP) analyses, which can be subject to bias. OBJECTIVE: The aim of this study was to combine individual‐level data from the LEAP and EAT trials and provide robust evidence on the bias‐corrected, causal effect of early peanut introduction. METHOD: As part of the European Union‐funded iFAAM project, this pooled analysis of individual pediatric patient data combines and compares effectiveness and efficacy estimates of oral tolerance induction among different risk strata and analysis methods. RESULTS: An intention‐to‐treat (ITT) analysis of pooled data showed a 75% reduction in PA (p < .0001) among children randomized to consume peanut from early infancy. A protective effect was present across all eczema severity groups, irrespective of enrollment sensitization to peanut, and across different ethnicities. Earlier age of introduction was associated with improved effectiveness of the intervention. In the pooled PP analysis, peanut consumption reduced the risk of PA by 98% (p < .0001). A causal inference analysis confirmed the strong PP effect (89% average treatment effect relative risk reduction p < .0001). A multivariable causal inference analysis approach estimated a large (100%) reduction in PA in children without eczema (p = .004). CONCLUSION: We demonstrate a significant reduction in PA with early peanut introduction in a large group of pooled, randomized participants. This significant reduction was demonstrated across all risk subgroups, including children with no eczema. Furthermore, our results point to increased efficacy of the intervention with earlier age of introduction.
