Long Term Mortality

Introduction Intracerebral haemorrhage (ICH) in young adults is rare but has devastating consequences. We investigated long-term mortality rates, causes of death and predictors of long-term mortality in young spontaneous ICH survivors. Patients and methods We included consecutive patients aged 18–55 years from the Prognosis of Intracerebral Haemorrhage cohort (PITCH), a prospective observational cohort of patients admitted to Lille University Hospital (2004–2009), who survived at least 30 days after spontaneous ICH. We studied long-term mortality with Kaplan-Meier analyses, collected causes of death, performed uni-/multivariable Cox-regression analyses for the association of baseline characteristics with long-term mortality. Results Of 560 patients enrolled in the PITCH, 75 patients (75% men) met our inclusion criteria (median age 50 years, interquartile range [IQR] 44–53 years). During a median follow-up of 8.2 years (IQR 5.0–10.1), 26 patients died (35%), with a standardized mortality ratio of 13.0 (95% confidence interval [95% CI] 8.5–18.0) compared to peers from the general population. Causes of death were vascular in 7 (27%) patients, non-vascular in 13 (50%) and unknown in 6 (23%). Global cerebral atrophy (hazard ratio [HR] 3.0, 95% CI 1.1–8.6), modified Rankin Score >2 before ICH (HR 3.4, 95% CI 1.0–11.0), and excessive alcohol consumption (HR 3.3, 95% CI 1.1–10.2) were independently associated with long-term mortality. Discussion We found a 13-fold higher mortality risk for young ICH survivors compared to the general French population. Predictors of long-term mortality were pre-existing conditions, not ICH-characteristics. Conclusion Young ICH survivors remain at increased mortality risk of vascular and non-vascular death for years after ICH.

Two cohorts of anorexia nervosa patients were followed up for a mean of 20 years. All except 4% of each cohort was traced. The crude mortalities were: St George's, 4%; Aberdeen, 13%. The SMRs were: St George's, 136; Aberdeen, 471. If the untraced were assumed to be dead, crude mortalities were 7.6% and 15.9% respectively, and SMRs were 276 and 592 respectively. Causes of death were complications of the illness and suicide. Medical treatment may reduce early mortality, while comprehensive medical and psychotherapeutic treatment may reduce late mortality.

Objective:To elucidate the epilepsy-associated causes of death and subsequent excess long-term mortality among 12-month survivors of subarachnoid hemorrhage from saccular intracranial aneurysm (SIA-SAH).Methods:The Kuopio SIA Database (kuopioneurosurgery.fi) includes all SIA-SAH patients admitted to the Kuopio University Hospital from its defined catchment population in Eastern Finland. The study cohort consists of 779 patients, admitted from 1995 to 2007, who were alive at 12 months after SIA-SAH. Their use of reimbursable antiepileptic drugs and the causes of death (ICD-10) were fused from the Finnish national registries from 1994 to 2014.Results:The 779 12-month survivors were followed up until death (n = 197) or December 31, 2014, a median of 12.0 years after SIA-SAH. Epilepsy had been diagnosed in 121 (15%) patients after SIA-SAH, and 34/121 (28%) had died at the end of follow-up, with epilepsy as the immediate cause of death in 7/34 (21%). In the 779 patients alive at 12 months after SIA-SAH, epilepsy was an independent risk factor for mortality (hazard ratio 1.8, 95% confidence interval 1.1–3.0).Conclusions:Comorbid epilepsy in 12-month survivors of SIA-SAH is associated with increased risk of death in long-term follow-up. Survivors of SIA-SAH require long-term dedicated follow-up, including identification and effective treatment of comorbid epilepsy to prevent avoidable deaths.

Abstract Background Causes of death after percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) along multiple time-periods are poorly described. Objective To describe causes and predictors of short-term, intermediate-term, and long-term mortality after PCI. Methods Consecutive men and women admitted for PCI from 2008 to 2011 were prospectively included and followed-up in this cohort study. A dedicated follow-up by independent reviewers was performed to collect the outcomes and adjudicate the causes of death. A log-rank analysis was used to compare the occurrence of cardiovascular and non-cardiovascular death at 30 days, one year and up to 8 years. Last detailed cardiovascular and vital status were collected in January 2019. Results A total of 3524 patients including 2720 men (77.2%) and 804 women (22.8%) were followed-up for a median time of 7.0 years (IQ1: 5.4; IQ 3: 7.2). The rate of complete follow-up was 97.6%. All-cause death occurred for 30.3% (n=1070) of patients in the cohort, in a median time of 2.5 years after PCI, with a rate of 5.3 deaths per 100 patient-years. Overall, mortality was mostly related to cardiovascular causes than non-cardiovascular causes (17.7% versus 12.6%, log-rank <0.001) (Figure). This trend was strong within 30 days (4.7% vs. 0.3%, p<0.0001) and the first year after PCI (3.1% vs. 2.2 p=0.01), but became non-significant beyond one year (9.9% vs. 10.2%, P=0.67). Of note, cancer was the major cause of non-cardiovascular death (5.6%; 1 per 100 patient-years). Diabetes (adHR = 1.48 95% [1.29–1.71], p<0.001), active smoking (adHR = 1.37, 95% [1.16–1.62]) and chronic kidney disease (adHR = 1.97, 95% [2.55–3.45], p<0.001) were the strongest risk factors for all-cause death. Survival after PCI Conclusions In this long-term cohort study, cardiovascular death was more frequent than non-cardiovascular death in patients treated with PCI in the short and intermediate-term but not beyond one year. Cancer accounted for one fifth of the overall mortality.
