Item Analysis of INSPPIRE-2 Cohort: Risk Factors and Disease Burden in Children with Acute Recurrent or Chronic Pancreatitis(Wiley, 2022) Uc, Aliye; Cress, Gretchen A.; Wang, Fuchenchu; Abu-El-Haija, Maisam; Ellery, Kate M.; Fishman, Douglas S.; Gariepy, Cheryl E.; Gonska, Tanja; Lin, Tom K.; Liu, Quin Y.; Mehta, Megha; Maqbool, Asim; McFerron, Brian A.; Morinville, Veronique D.; Ooi, Chee Y.; Perito, Emily R.; Schwarzenberg, Sarah Jane; Sellers, Zachary M.; Serrano, Jose; Shah, Uzma; Troendle, David M.; Wilschanski, Michael; Zheng, Yuhua; Yuan, Ying; Lowe, Mark E.; Pediatrics, School of MedicineObjectives: The objective of this study is to investigate risk factors and disease burden in pediatric acute recurrent pancreatitis (ARP) and chronic pancreatitis (CP). Methods: Data were obtained from INternational Study group of Pediatric Pancreatitis: In search for a cuRE-2 (INSPPIRE-2), the largest multi-center prospective cohort study in pediatric patients with ARP or CP. Results: Of 689 children, 365 had ARP (53%), 324 had CP (47%). CP was more commonly associated with female sex, younger age at first acute pancreatitis (AP) attack, Asian race, family history of CP, lower BMI%, genetic and obstructive factors, PRSS1 mutations and pancreas divisum. CFTR mutations, toxic-metabolic factors, medication use, hypertriglyceridemia, Crohn disease were more common in children with ARP. Constant or frequent abdominal pain, emergency room (ER) visits, hospitalizations, medical, endoscopic or surgical therapies were significantly more common in CP, episodic pain in ARP. A total of 33.1% of children with CP had exocrine pancreatic insufficiency (EPI), 8.7% had diabetes mellitus. Compared to boys, girls were more likely to report pain impacting socialization and school, medical therapies, cholecystectomy, but no increased opioid use. There was no difference in race, ethnicity, age at first AP episode, age at CP diagnosis, duration of disease, risk factors, prevalence of EPI or diabetes between boys and girls. Multivariate analysis revealed that family history of CP, constant pain, obstructive risk factors were predictors of CP. Conclusions: Children with family history of CP, constant pain, or obstructive risk factors should raise suspicion for CP.Item Similar effect of hypoglossal nerve stimulation for obstructive sleep apnea in 5 disease severity categories(American Academy of Sleep Medicine, 2022) Bosschieter, Pien F. N.; de Vries, Nico; Mehra, Reena; Manchanda, Shalini; Padhya, Tapan A.; Vanderveken, Olivier M.; Ravesloot, M. J. L.; Medicine, School of MedicineStudy objectives: Data on adherence and outcome of upper airway stimulation (UAS) for patients with obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) are collected in an international registry (ADHERE). Previous publications report significant improvement in self-reported and objective OSA outcomes, durable effectiveness, and high adherence. Debate remains whether the effectiveness of UAS is influenced by preoperative OSA severity; therefore, we aimed to evaluate this using data from the ADHERE Registry. Methods: ADHERE is a postmarket, ongoing, international multicenter registry. Adult patients were included if they had undergone UAS implantation and had at least 1 follow-up visit recorded in the database on June 8, 2021. We divided the patients into 5 subgroups, based on OSA severity at baseline (AHI in events/h): subgroup 1 (0-15), 2 (15-30), 3 (≥ 30-50), 4 (> 50-65), and 5 (> 65). We compared results regarding objective and self-reported treatment outcomes. Results: A total of 1,963 patients were included. Twelve months after implantation, there was a significant (P < .0001) improvement in objective sleep parameters in all subgroups with an AHI above 15 events/h. Patients in subgroup 1 had the lowest AHI at the final visit and the AHI reduction in patients in subgroup 5 was the largest (P < .0001). No significant difference was found between the subgroups in overall treatment success (66.6%) and improvement in self-reported outcomes. Conclusions: Our results suggest that UAS is an effective treatment for patients with an AHI ≥ 15 events/h, independent of preoperative OSA severity. Self-reported outcomes and treatment success did not differ significantly between the 5 subgroups. These results clearly support that the indication of UAS could be broadened for patients with an AHI above 65 events/h, which, to date, is not common practice.
