This was conducted at a Level 1 Trauma Centre with no orthogeriatric service. A multidisciplinary review of the medical records by four specialists was performed to analyse errors of management and elements of preventable mortality. During 2011, there were 437 patients aged > 65 years admitted with a fracture of the hip (85 years (66 to 99)) and 20 died while in hospital (86.3 years (67 to 96)). A total of 152 errors were identified in the 80 individual reviews of the 20 deaths. A total of 99 errors (65%) were thought to have at least a moderate effect on death; 45 reviews considering death (57%) were thought to have potentially been preventable. Agreement between the panel of reviewers on the preventability of death was fair. A larger-scale assessment of preventable mortality in elderly patients who sustain a fracture of the hip is required. Multidisciplinary review panels could be considered as part of the quality assurance process in the management of these patients.]]> Sat 24 Mar 2018 08:00:54 AEDT ]]> https://ogma.newcastle.edu.au/vital/access/ /manager/Repository/uon:55805 Sat 22 Jun 2024 12:53:26 AEST ]]> https://ogma.newcastle.edu.au/vital/access/ /manager/Repository/uon:38656 n = 10,003; 48.3% women; 48.5[15.7] years), core food score in 2013 was associated with MHI-5 (β:0.102, 95%CI: 0.010,0.193) in 2017, while the non-core food score was not (β:-0.030, 95%CI:-0.099,0.160). Depressive symptom score in 2013 was not associated with either food score in 2017. Current/prior diagnosis of depression in 2013 was associated with core (β:-0.198, 95%CI:-0.329,-0.067) but not non-core (β:-0.036, 95%CI: -0.151,0.080) food score in 2017. Limitations: Results may not be generalizable to the whole population due to some selection bias, self-report depression diagnosis may have led to misclassification of previous mental illness, and core and non-core food scores are not validated measures of diet quality. Conclusions: There is a prospective association between core food consumption and depressive symptoms. This association is of small magnitude and we cannot discount insufficient core food consumption reflecting an effect of prior mental illness. Our results suggest that, for depression, public health focus should be on improving core food intake.]]> Mon 23 May 2022 14:22:55 AEST ]]> https://ogma.newcastle.edu.au/vital/access/ /manager/Repository/uon:55448 0.71 µg/L) had a significantly increased risk of cancer compared to those with low levels (<0.19 µg/L) (HR 3.42, p < 0.001), particularly among non-smokers (HR 3.74, p = 0.003), individuals aged < 60 years (HR 2.79, p = 0.017), and ≥60 (HR 4.63, p = 0.004). The influence of smoking on cancer risk based on Cd levels was not significant in this study. Blood Cd levels may influence cancer risk in men, emphasizing the importance of minimizing Cd exposure to reduce risk. Confirmation of these results in other populations is essential for effective preventive measures against Cd-related cancers.]]> Mon 03 Jun 2024 08:36:29 AEST ]]>
