Correction: Adjusted Age-Adjusted Charlson Comorbidity Index Score as a Risk Measure of Perioperative Mortality before Cancer Surgery

Impact of preoperative biliary drainage on postoperative outcome after pancreaticoduodenectomy: An analysis of 1500 consecutive cases

“…Data of patients that were consecutively submitted for PD for periampullary malignancies at the Unit of General and Pancreatic Surgery, Pancreas Institute, Verona University Hospital from January 2005 to December 2016 were retrieved from the institutional electronic and prospectively maintained database and retrospectively analyzed. Demographic and clinical details, including age, gender, American Society of Anesthesiologists (ASA) score, body mass index (BMI), diabetes mellitus, age‐adjusted Charlson comorbidity index score, pathology, and preoperative serum bilirubin level (institutional normal value is below 1.05 mg/dL or 18 μmol/L) were collected. Patients who either received a PBD at our institution or elsewhere were included.…”

VE-CAM-S: Visual EEG-Based Grading of Delirium Severity and Associations With Clinical Outcomes

“…The CAM-S scores the severity of 10 delirium related features: 1) acute change/fluctuating course, 0-1; 2) inattention, 0-2; 3) altered level of consciousness, 0-2; 4) disorganized thinking, 0-2; 5) disorientation, 0-2; 6) memory impairment, 0-2; 7) perceptual disturbances, 0-2; 8) psychomotor agitation, 0-2; 9) psychomotor retardation, 0-2; and 10) altered sleep-wake cycle, 0-2. Additionally, the Richmond Agitation-Sedation Scale (RASS; normal = 0) was used to assess level of arousal (29), and we collected the Age-adjusted Charlson Comorbidity Index (calculated via the medical record) (30).…”

Temporal order of cancers and mental disorders in an adult population

“…[3][4][5][6][7][8][9][10][11][12][13][14] Other approaches often focus on proximal or prognostic comorbidity and employ comorbidity indices, such as the Charlson index. 5,[15][16][17][18][19][20][21][22][23][24][25] Current evidence on the comorbidity of cancer and mental disorders Recent studies that examined the association between neoplasms, including cancer, and mental disorders focused on the association of mental morbidity in cancer patients and survivors, utilising diagnostic interviews and surveys to assess mental disorder status. 26,27 Others have examined mental health problems and needs for social support post-diagnosis.…”

“…With respect to cancer, study most frequently focuses on constrained sets of disorders related to a specific type of cancer 3 – 14 . Other approaches often focus on proximal or prognostic comorbidity and employ comorbidity indices, such as the Charlson index 5 , 15 – 25 …”
