    Abstract The coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) pandemic has caused a devastating impact on morbidity and mortality around the world. Severe acute respiratory syndrome-coronavirus-2 has a characteristic tropism for the cardiovascular system by entering the host cells and binding to angiotensin-converting enzyme 2 receptors, which are expressed in different cells, particularly endothelial cells. This endothelial injury is linked by a direct intracellular viral invasion leading to inflammation, microthrombosis, and angiogenesis. COVID-19 has been associated with acute myocarditis, cardiac arrhythmias, new onset or worsening heart failure, ischemic heart disease, stroke, and thromboembolic disease. This review summarizes key relevant literature regarding the epidemiology, diagnosis, treatment, and preventive measures related to cardiovascular complications in the setting of COVID-19.

    Abstract Metabolomics (both targeted and untargeted) has become the gold standard in biomarker discovery. Whereas targeted approaches only provide information for the selected markers, thus hampering the determination of out-of-the-box markers, the common bottleneck of untargeted metabolomics is the identification of detected biomarkers. In this study, we developed a strategy based on derivatization and LC-MS/MS detection in a precursor ion scan for the untargeted determination of a specific part of the metabolome (carbonyl-containing metabolites). The usefulness of this guided metabolomics approach has been demonstrated by elucidating carbonyl-containing biomarkers of COVID-19 severity. First, the LC-MS/MS behavior of 63 model compounds after O-benzylhydroxylamine derivatization was studied. A precursor ion scan of m/z 91 was selected as a suitable approach for the untargeted detection of carbonyl-containing metabolites. The method was able to detect ≈300 potential carbonyl-containing molecules in plasma, including mono-/di-/tricarbonylic compounds with satisfactory intra-day and inter-day repeatability and RSDs commonly <15%. Additionally, the semiquantitative nature of the precursor ion scan method was confirmed by comparison with a fully validated targeted method. The application of the guided metabolomics method to COVID-19 plasma samples revealed the presence of four potential COVID-19 severity biomarkers. Based on their LC-MS/MS behavior, these biomarkers were elucidated as 2-hydroxybutyrate, 2,3-dihydroxybutyrate, 2-oxobutyrate and 2-hydroxy-3-methylbutyrate. Their structures were confirmed by comparison with reference materials. The alterations of these biomarkers with COVID-19 severity were confirmed by a target analysis of a larger set of samples. Our results confirm that guided metabolomics is an alternative approach for the untargeted detection of selected families of metabolites; this approach can accelerate their elucidation and provide new perspectives for the establishment of health/disease biomarkers.

    Abstract Hip fractures (HFx) are associated with a higher morbidity and mortality rates, leading to a significant reduction in life quality and in limitation of patient´s mobility. The present study aimed to obtain real-world evidence on the clinical characteristics of patients with an initial and a second hip fracture (HFx) and develop a predictive model for second HFx using artificial intelligence. Electronic health records from one hospital centre in Spain from January 2011 to December 2019 were analysed using EHRead® technology, based on natural language processing and machine learning. A total of 1,960 patients with HFx were finally included during the study period after meeting all inclusion and exclusion criteria. From this total, 1835 (93.6%) patients were included in the HFx subgroup, while 124 (6.4%) were admitted to the second HFx (2HFx) subgroup. The mean age of the participants was 84 years and 75.5% were female. Most of comorbidities were more frequently identified in the HFx group, including hypertension (72.0% vs. 67.2%), cognitive impairment (33.0% vs. 31.2%), diabetes mellitus (28.7% vs. 24.8%), heart failure (27.6% vs. 22.4%) and chronic kidney disease (26.9% vs. 16.0%). Based on clinical criteria, 26 features were selected as potential prediction factors. From there, 16 demographics and clinical characteristics such as comorbidities, medications, measures of disabilities for ambulation and type of refracture were selected for development of a competitive risk model. Specifically, those predictors with different associated risk ratios, sorted from higher to lower risk relevance were visual deficit, malnutrition, walking assistance, hypothyroidism, female sex, osteoporosis treatment, pertrochanteric fracture, dementia, age at index, osteoporosis, renal failure, stroke, COPD, heart disease, anaemia, and asthma. This model showed good performance (dependent AUC: 0.69; apparent performance: 0.75) and could help the identification of patients with higher risk of developing a second HFx, allowing preventive measures. This study expands the current available information of HFx patients in Spain and identifies factors that exhibit potential in predicting a second HFx among older patients.

    Abstract Background: Spondyloarthritis (SpA) is a group of related but phenotypically distinct inflammatory disorders that include axial SpA (axSpA) and psoriatic arthritis (PsA). Information on the characteristics and management of these patients in the real world remains scarce.
    Objectives: To explore the characteristics and management [disease activity assessment and treatment with secukinumab (SEC) or other biologic disease-modifying antirheumatic drugs (bDMARDs)] of axSpA and PsA patients using natural language processing (NLP) in Electronic Health Records (EHRs).
    Design: National, multicenter, observational, and retrospective study.
    Methods: We analyzed free-text and structured clinical information from EHR at three hospitals. All adult patients with axSpA, PsA or non-classified SpA from 2018 to 2021 with minimum follow-up of three months were included when starting SEC or other bDMARDs. Clinical variables were extracted using
    Results: Out of 887,735 patients, 758 were included, of which 328 had axSpA [58.5% male; mean (SD) age of 50.7 (12.7) years], 365 PsA [54.8% female, 53.9 (12.4) years], and 65 non-classified SpA. Mean (SD) time since diagnosis was 36.8 (61.0) and 24.1 (35.2) months for axSpA and PsA, respectively. Only 116 axSpA patients (35.3%) had available Ankylosing Spondylitis Disease Activity Score (ASDAS) or Bath Ankylosing Spondylitis Disease Activity Index (BASDAI) at bDMARD onset, of which 61 presented active disease. Disease Activity in PSoriatic Arthritis (DAPSA) or Disease Assessment Score - 28 joints (DAS-28) values at bDMARD onset were available for only 61 PsA (16.7%) patients, with 23 of them having active disease. The number of patients with available tender joint count or swollen joint count assessment was 68 (20.7%) and 59 (18%) for axSpA, and 115 (31.5%) and 119 (32.6%) for PsA, respectively. SEC was used in 63 (19.2%) axSpA patients and in 63 (17.3%) PsA patients.
    Conclusion: Using NLP, the study showed that around one-third of axSpA and one-sixth of PsA patients have disease activity assessments with ASDAS/BASDAI or DAPSA/DAS-28, respectively, highlighting an area of improvement in these patients' management.

    Abstract Objective: To explore combined non-invasive-respiratory-support (NIRS) patterns, reasons for NIRS switching, and their potential impact on clinical outcomes in acute-hypoxemic-respiratory-failure (AHRF) patients.
    Design: Retrospective, single-center observational study.
    Setting: Intensive Care Medicine.
    Patients: AHRF patients (cardiac origin and respiratory acidosis excluded) underwent combined NIRS therapies such as non-invasive-ventilation (NIV) and High-Flow-Nasal-Cannula (HFNC).
    Interventions: Patients were classified based on the first NIRS switch performed (HFNC-to-NIV or NIV-to-HFNC), and further specific NIRS switching strategies (NIV trial-like vs. Non-NIV trial-like and single vs. multiples switches) were independently evaluated.
    Main variables of interest: Reasons for switching, NIRS failure and mortality rates.
    Results: A total of 63 patients with AHRF were included, receiving combined NIRS, 58.7% classified in the HFNC-to-NIV group and 41.3% in the NIV-to-HFNC group. Reason for switching from HFNC to NIV was AHRF worsening (100%), while from NIV to HFNC was respiratory improvement (76.9%). NIRS failure rates were higher in the HFNC-to-NIV than in NIV-to-HFNC group (81% vs. 35%, p < 0.001). Among HFNC-to-NIV patients, there was no difference in the failure rate between the NIV trial-like and non-NIV trial-like groups (86% vs. 78%, p = 0.575) but the mortality rate was significantly lower in NIV trial-like group (14% vs. 52%, p = 0.02). Among NIV to HFNC patients, NIV failure was lower in the single switch group compared to the multiple switches group (15% vs. 53%, p = 0.039), with a shorter length of stay (5 [2-8] vs. 12 [8-30] days, p = 0.001).
    Conclusions: NIRS combination is used in real life and both switches' strategies, HFNC to NIV and NIV to HFNC, are common in AHRF management. Transitioning from HFNC to NIV is suggested as a therapeutic escalation and in this context performance of a NIV-trial could be beneficial. Conversely, switching from NIV to HFNC is suggested as a de-escalation strategy that is deemed safe if there is no NIRS failure.

    Abstract Objective: To assess the changes in lung aeration and respiratory effort generated by two different spontaneous breathing trial (SBT): T-piece (T-T) vs pressure support ventilation (PSV).
    Design: Prospective, interventionist and randomized study.
    Setting: Intensive Care Unit (ICU) of Hospital del Mar.
    Participants: Forty-three ventilated patients for at least 24 h and considered eligible for an SBT were included in the study between October 2017 and March 2020.
    Interventions: 30-min SBT with T-piece (T-T group, 20 patients) or 8-cmH
    Main variables of interest: Demographics, clinical data, physiological variables, lung aeration evaluated with electrical impedance tomography (EIT) and lung ultrasound (LUS), and respiratory effort using diaphragmatic ultrasonography (DU) were collected at different timepoints: basal (BSL), end of SBT (EoSBT) and one hour after extubation (OTE).
    Results: There were a loss of aeration measured with EIT and LUS in the different study timepoints, without statistical differences from BSL to OTE, between T-T and PSV [LUS: 3 (1, 5.5) AU vs 2 (1, 3) AU; p = 0.088; EELI: -2516.41 (-5871.88, 1090.46) AU vs -1992.4 (-3458.76, -5.07) AU; p = 0.918]. Percentage of variation between BSL and OTE, was greater when LUS was used compared to EIT (68.1% vs 4.9%, p ≤ 0.001). Diaphragmatic excursion trend to decrease coinciding with a loss of aeration during extubation.
    Conclusion: T-T and PSV as different SBT strategies in ventilated patients do not show differences in aeration loss, nor estimated respiratory effort or tidal volume measured by EIT, LUS and DU.
