    Kurzfassung: Although there are 14 097 board-certified cardiologists in Japan, it is unknown whether the number of institutional board-certified cardiologists is related to the prognosis of cardiovascular disease patients. Design Cross-sectional analysis. Setting Data were collected from the nationwide database of acute care hospitals in Japan (2371 hospitals) between 2012 and 2013. Participants A total of 1 422 703 consecutive patients were initially included in this study, but 518 610 patients were excluded due to age 〈 18 years, missing data or prior hospitalisations; therefore, 896 171 patients comprised the final sample population. Main outcome measures The primary outcome was in-hospital mortality due to any cause. For the per-hospital analysis, Poisson regression models were used to estimate the association of board-certified cardiologists with in-hospital mortality, adjusted for hospital facilitation. For the per-patient analysis, hierarchical logistic regression models were used to estimate the ORs of the number of institutional board-certified cardiologists, adjusted for patient demographics, diagnoses, therapies and hospital facilities. Results The regression model of the per-hospital analysis indicated that the number of board-certified cardiologists was associated with a lower rate ratio of in-hospital mortality (rate ratio, 0.988; 95% CI 0.983 to 0.993; p 〈 0.01). The per-patient analysis indicated that the median age was 73 years and the in-hospital mortality rate was 11.7%. The regression model indicated that the presence of more board-certified cardiologists was associated with a lower risk of in-hospital mortality (OR, 0.980; 95% CI 0.975 to 0.986; p 〈 0.01) after adjustments for hospital facilities, patient characteristics and treatments. Conclusions Among cardiovascular disease patients admitted to acute care hospitals in Japan, the presence of more board-certified cardiologists was associated with a lower risk of in-hospital mortality. These results have implications for national and institutional strategies for determining the required number of board-certified cardiologists.

    Kurzfassung: Limited national-level information on temporal trends in comprehensive stroke center capabilities and their effects on acute ischemic stroke patients exists. Aims To examine trends in in-hospital outcomes of acute ischemic stroke patients and the prognostic influence of temporal changes in comprehensive stroke center capabilities in Japan. Methods This retrospective study used the J-ASPECT Diagnosis Procedure Combination database and identified 372,978 acute ischemic stroke patients hospitalized in 650 institutions between 2010 and 2016. Temporal trends in patient outcomes and recombinant tissue plasminogen activator (rt-PA) and mechanical thrombectomy usage were examined. Facility comprehensive stroke center capabilities were assessed using a validated scoring system (comprehensive stroke center score: 1–25 points) in 2010 and 2014. The prognostic influence of temporal comprehensive stroke center score changes on in-hospital mortality and poor outcomes (modified Rankin Scale: 3–6) at discharge were examined using hierarchical logistic regression models. Results Over time, stroke severity at admission decreased, whereas median age, sex ratio, and comorbidities remained stable. The median comprehensive stroke center score increased from 16 to 17 points. After adjusting for age, sex, comorbidities, consciousness level, and facility comprehensive stroke center score, proportion of in-hospital mortality and poor outcomes at discharge decreased (from 7.6% to 5.0%, and from 48.7% to 43.1%, respectively). The preceding comprehensive stroke center score increase (in 2010–2014) was independently associated with reduced in-hospital mortality and poor outcomes, and increased rt-PA and mechanical thrombectomy use (odds ratio (95% confidence interval): 0.97 (0.95–0.99), 0.97 (0.95–0.998), 1.07 (1.04–1.10), and 1.21 (1.14–1.28), respectively). Conclusions This nationwide study revealed six-year trends in better patient outcomes and increased use of rt-PA and mechanical thrombectomy in acute ischemic stroke. In addition to lesser stroke severity, preceding improvement of comprehensive stroke center capabilities was an independent factor associated with such trends, suggesting importance of comprehensive stroke center capabilities as a prognostic indicator of acute stroke care.

    Kurzfassung: An increase of severe ischemic heart diseases results in an increase of the patients with congestive heart failure (CHF). Therefore, new therapies are expected in addition to recanalization of coronary arteries. Previous clinical trials using natriuretic peptides (NPs) prove the improvement of CHF by NPs. Objective: We aimed at investigating whether OSTN (osteocrin) peptide potentially functioning as an NPR (NP clearance receptor) 3-blocking peptide can be used as a new therapeutic peptide for treating CHF after myocardial infarction (MI) using animal models. Methods and Results: We examined the effect of OSTN on circulation using 2 mouse models; the continuous intravenous infusion of OSTN after MI and the OSTN-transgenic (Tg) mice with MI. In vitro studies revealed that OSTN competitively bound to NPR3 with atrial NP. In both OSTN–continuous intravenous infusion model and OSTN-Tg model, acute inflammation within the first week after MI was reduced. Moreover, both models showed the improvement of prognosis at 28 days after MI by OSTN. Consistent with the in vitro study binding of OSTN to NPR3, the OSTN-Tg exhibited an increased plasma atrial NP and C-type NP, which might result in the improvement of CHF after MI as indicated by the reduced weight of hearts and lungs and by the reduced fibrosis. Conclusions: OSTN might suppress the worsening of CHF after MI by inhibiting clearance of NP family peptides.

    Kurzfassung: Introduction: Reports on hospital-specific, risk-standardized outcomes using claims data on acute ischemic stroke are increasing. However, these reports sometimes fail to account for stroke severity. Hypothesis: Hospital-specific, risk-adjusted mortality rating without accounting for stroke severity are altered after including initial severity for ischemic strokes. Methods: The health insurance claims data known as the Japanese Diagnosis Procedure Combination/Per Diem Payment Systems between April 1, 2013 and May 31, 2014 was obtained from 332 certified training institutions in Japan. The hospital-specific, risk-adjusted 30-day mortality rate was calculated using a hierarchical logistic regression model. We developed two models, with and without initial levels of consciousness (LOC), and compared them to assess the impact of stroke severities on hospital-specific mortalities. The hospital-specific mortalities with and without LOC were ranked and groped into 3 categories (top 20%, middle 60%, and bottom 20%), and then compared across the two models. We used an integrated discrimination improvement (IDI) index to measure how the model with LOC reclassified patients compared with the model without LOC. Patients with deep comas were excluded from the analyses. Results: We analyzed 64,569 acute ischemic stroke patients. Crude 30-day mortality was 3.9% , the mean age was 74.1±1.3 years, 41.2% were women, 70.8% had hypertension, 29.2% had diabetes mellitus, 79.9% had a Charlson comorbidity index score greater than 5, 3.7% had severe LOC (coma/semi-coma) and 8.1% had modestly impaired LOC. Among hospitals ranked in the top 20% of performers without LOC, 26.9% were ranked in the middle 60% when LOC was adjusted. Among the bottom 20% of performers without LOC, 21.2% were ranked in the middle 60% when LOC was adjusted. The hospital-specific, risk-adjusted 30-days mortality model with LOC had a significantly better IDI index score than the model without LOC (IDI, 0.09; P 〈 0.001). Conclusions: Adding the metric of stroke severity to a hospital-specific, risk-adjusted 30-day mortality model based on claims data was associated with model improvement and changes of mortality-based performance rankings.

    Kurzfassung: Background: Evaluation of the overall clinical outcomes of stroke care is important for improving institutional quality of care. We performed a nationwide survey in Japan to analyze cases of unruptured cerebral aneurysms using the diagnostic procedure combination (DPC). Methods and Results: Certified neurosurgical training institutions in Japan provided data from the DPC database on patients hospitalized with neurosurgical diseases between April 1, 2012 and March 31, 2013. Patients hospitalized owing to unruptured cerebral aneurysms were identified from the DPC database based on the International Classification of Diseases (ICD)-10 diagnosis code (I671). We excluded patients with emergency admissions. We compared the mortality rates, modified Rankin Scale (mRS) scores, postoperative complications of patients who underwent clipping and coiling. With respect to postoperative complications, we evaluated the ratio of an event of complication (brain infarction, brain hemorrhage and cardiac infarction) and the number of complications (scored using patient safety indicators: PSIs and hospital-acquired conditions: HACs). We used hierarchical logistic regression models to estimate the odds ratios (ORs) for in-hospital mortality and complications. We identified 6329 patients with unruptured cerebral aneurysms (3710 clipping, 2619 coiling). Patient characteristics, mortality rates, and mRS were similar between groups. Patients who underwent coiling had a significantly lower number of complications than patients who underwent clipping (PSIs: OR = 0.40; P 〈 0.001, HACs: OR = 0.47; P = 0.001). Adversely, there was an increased likelihood of ischemic stroke in coiling patients compared with clipping patients (coiling: 7.2%; clipping: 4.7%; OR = 1.37; P = 0.011). 83.2% of coiling patients underwent MRI after the operation, compared with 37.3% of clipping patients. Conclusions: Our data demonstrated that coiling patients had lower number of post-operative complications and higher number of ischemic stroke than clipping patients. But the cause that higher number of coiling patients had ischemic stroke than clipping patients because higher number of coiling patients were underwent MRI after operation compared with clipping patients.

    Kurzfassung: Background and purpose: The outcomes of subarachnoid hemorrhage (SAH) in aged patients are more severe than those in non-aged patients. There are few reports about the relationship between the age and the effect of perioperative care for SAH patients. We performed a nationwide survey in Japan to determine the relationship between perioperative care and SAH outcomes in aged and non-aged patients. Methods: We analyzed 17,343 subarachnoid hemorrhage (SAH) patients treated with clipping or coiling in 579 hospitals who participated in the J-ASPECT study. Data between 2010 and 2013 were obtained from the Japanese Diagnosis Procedure Combination Database. We stratified patients into two groups according to their age (aged group 〉 75 y.o., n=3885; non-aged group 〈 75 y.o., n=13,458) and analyzed the association between perioperative care and poor outcome (modified Rankin Scale score 3-6 at the time of discharge). With respect to perioperative care, we evaluated time from onset to surgery (days), treatment (clipping or coiling), and drugs delivered after surgery (fasudil hydrochloride, ozagrel sodium, cilostazol, statin, EPA, edaravone). Results: In the non-aged group, coiling (OR=0.84; P 〈 0.01) and treatment with fasudil hydrochloride (OR=0.59; P 〈 0.01), statin (OR=0.83; P 〈 0.01), and EPA (OR=0.83; P 〈 0.01) significantly improved the outcomes and cilostazol treatment tended to improve the outcomes (OR=0.91; P=0.07). In both groups, edaravone treatment was associated with poor outcome (aged group: OR=2.34, P 〈 0.01; non-aged group: OR=2.33, P 〈 0.01). Although no factor that could improve outcome in the aged group was identified, JCS scores less than 30, coiling (OR=0.80; P=0.03), and EPA treatment (OR=0.74; P=0.02) were statistically significant prognosis improvement factors. Conclusion: Coiling and treatment with fasudil hydrochloride, statins, and EPA improved outcomes of non-aged patients. Although perioperative care did not improve the outcome of aged SAH patients, in cases of relatively mild SAH, perioperative care had the potential to improve the outcome.

    Kurzfassung: Background: The association between physician volume and the death rate for patients who are hospitalized for ischemic and hemorrhagic stroke remains unclear. It is unknown whether a volume threshold for such an association exists. We aimed to analyze the correlation between in-hospital stroke mortality and physician volume considering board certification status. Methods: For this cross-sectional study, data on patients hospitalized for ischemic stroke, intracerebral hemorrhage (ICH), and subarachnoid hemorrhage (SAH) between 2010 and 2016[MOU1] [KN2] were obtained from the Diagnosis Procedure Combination database in Japan using International Classification of Diseases-10 diagnosis codes. The numbers of stroke care physicians and relevant board-certified physicians were asked. Odd ratios (ORs) of 30 day in-hospital mortality were estimated after adjustment for institutional differences, age, sex, comorbidities, and level of consciousness using generalized mixed logistic regressions. Findings: In a total of 295,150, 98,657 and 36,1741 patients with ischemic stroke, ICH and SAH, 30 day in-hospital mortality rates were 4.4,16 and 26.6 %. For all types of stroke, the number of stroke care physicians was associated with reduced in-hospital mortality (all p for trend 〈 0·001). The number of board-certified neurosurgeons, stroke physicians, and endovascular surgeons stroke physicians showed clear association with reduced in-hospital mortality of ischemic stroke (volume threshold, OR [95%CI] for three specialties: six, 0·86 [0·79-0·95] ; p=0·002, one, 0·79 [0·71-0·87]; p 〈 0·001, three, 0·90 [0·80-1·00]; p=0·046), ICH (six, 0·87 [0·78-0·98] ; p=0·019, two, 0·76 [0·60-0·96]; p=0·02, three, 0·82 [0·73-0·93] ; p=0·002), and SAH (four, 0·80 [0·71-0·91]; p=0·001, six, 0·72 [0·53-0·98] ; p=0·04, two, 0·85 [0·75-0·96]; p=0·01). The number of board-certified neurologists did so only for ischemic stroke (two, 0·88 [0·80-0·97] ; p=0·013). Interpretation: The number of stroke care physicians was associated with reduced in-hospital mortality for all types of stroke. The volume threshold of board-certified physicians depends on specialty and stroke types.

    Kurzfassung: Background and purpose: In the rapidly aging society of Japan, improvement of the emergency medical care system for stroke is an urgent concern. In prehospital care for stroke, appropriate triage, selection of the delivery facility, and decreased transport time contribute directly to prognosis. The standard treatment for acute ischemic stroke (AIS) has changed dramatically. With the introduction of new thrombectomy devices, proper placement of comprehensive stroke centers (CSCs) should be reconsidered. Accordingly, a nationwide survey is needed to develop an efficient prehospital care system. The aim of this study was to elucidate problems in prehospital care for stroke in Japan, using a nationwide fire department (FD) questionnaire survey. Materials and methods: We conducted a questionnaire survey of 733 FDs in Japan with the cooperation of the Japanese Society of Emergency Medicine and the Emergency Planning Office of the Fire and Disaster Management Agency. The questionnaires evaluated utilization status of the Prehospital Stroke Life Support (PSLS) protocol and prehospital stroke scale (PSS), awareness of standard treatment with new devices, information on delivery facilities and transportation, use of information and communication technology (ICT), and the retraining system for paramedics. Results: Data obtained from 664 FDs (91%) were analyzed. The PSLS protocol and PSS were used by 47.2% and 59.6%, respectively. Surprisingly, only 35.6% of FDs had knowledge about the latest treatment for AIS, and half of the FDs did not have an opportunity to learn about treatment. The proportion of FDs with a CSC in their jurisdictions was decreased in rural areas compared with urban areas (19.2% vs. 49.8%). However, helicopter transportation and ICT were not adequately utilized even in rural areas. Only half of the FDs urged paramedics to attend a PSLS course. Conclusion: We demonstrated problems with prehospital care for stroke in Japan using a nationwide FD questionnaire survey. Placement of CSCs, adequacy of the transportation system, and communication between physicians and paramedics should be reevaluated.
