COVID-19 trajectories among 57 million adults in England: a cohort study using electronic health records

Johan H. Thygesen et al.

Summary: This study used nationwide linked electronic health records to define and validate ten COVID-19 phenotypes, providing insights into the different stages and transitions of the disease. The results showed infection rates, hospitalization rates, intensive care unit usage, and mortality rates of COVID-19. Longer patient trajectories were observed in the second wave compared to the first wave.

Development and validation of prediction model to estimate 10-year risk of all-cause mortality using modern statistical learning methods: a large population-based cohort study and external validation

Olesya Ajnakina et al.

Summary: A new prediction model has been developed to quantify the absolute risk of all-cause mortality in the next 10 years. The model includes 13 prognostic factors and has good prediction accuracy, sensitivity, and specificity.

'What is the risk to me from COVID-19?': Public involvement in providing mortality risk information for people with 'high-risk' conditions for COVID-19 (OurRisk.CoV)

Amitava Banerjee et al.

Summary: Patients and public have sought mortality risk information throughout the pandemic, but their needs may not be served by current risk prediction tools. Further development is required to provide accessible and tailored information to meet their needs.

Excess deaths in people with cardiovascular diseases during the COVID-19 pandemic

Amitava Banerjee et al.

Summary: The study estimated excess mortality risk of cardiovascular diseases during the COVID-19 pandemic, including direct through infection and indirect through changes in healthcare. It found that cardiovascular service activity decreased by 60-100% in eight hospitals across China, Italy, and England, and that the indirect effects on cardiovascular diseases may be delayed rather than contemporaneous.

Modelling the impact of the tier system on SARS-CoV-2 transmission in the UK between the first and second national lockdowns

Daniel J. Laydon et al.

Summary: This modelling study in the UK found that the tier system had varying effects on reducing transmission of COVID-19, with tiers 2 and 3 showing significant reductions in transmission rates. However, the study also highlighted that more stringent interventions similar to tier 3 are needed to effectively suppress transmission, especially with the presence of more transmissible variants.

Linked electronic health records for research on a nationwide cohort of more than 54 million people in England: data resource

Angela Wood et al.

Summary: This study describes a novel England-wide electronic health record (EHR) resource for whole population research on covid-19 and cardiovascular disease, highlighting the importance of linking person level data across health settings to maximize completeness of key characteristics and to ascertain cardiovascular events and covid-19 diagnoses.

Prediction of 90-day mortality after surgery for colorectal cancer using standardized nationwide quality-assurance data

R. P. Vogelsang et al.

Summary: In this study, a prediction model was developed to accurately predict 90-day mortality risk for patients undergoing colorectal cancer surgery using pre- and intraoperative data from a nationwide cohort study. The model demonstrated excellent discriminatory power and calibration, with an AUROC of 85.3% (95% CI, 83.6 to 87.0).

Predictors and Outcomes of Hospitalization for Influenza: Real-World Evidence from the United States Medicare Population

Susan C. Bolge et al.

Summary: This study identified predictors of initial hospitalization for high-risk patients with influenza, revealing factors such as age, gender, chronic diseases, and comorbidities. Hospitalized patients incurred significantly higher healthcare costs, with increased likelihood of readmission and mortality rates.
