Cohort profile
Purpose: The British Columbia COVID-19 Cohort (BCC19C) was developed from an innovative, dynamic surveillance platform and is accessed/analyzed through a cloud-based environment. The platform integrates recently developed provincial COVID-19 datasets (refreshed daily) with existing administrative holdings and provincial registries (refreshed weekly/monthly). The platform/cohort were established to inform the COVID-19 response in near "real-time" …
A consensus statement on dual purpose pathogen surveillance systems
The COVID-19 pandemic progressed pathogen surveillance, from improved wastewater surveillance expertise and infrastructure, increased genomic sequencing capacity, to better integration between large datasets that informed policy decisions. Yet current systems are inadequate for a future facing frequent pandemics threats [1]. There is inequitable access to pathogen surveillance globally, with existing infrastructure favouring high-income countries…
Long-term trends in population-based hospitalisation rates for myocardial infarction in England
AIM: To analyse the timing and scale of temporal changes in rates of hospitalised myocardial infarction (MI) in England by age and sex from 1968 to 2016. METHODS: MI admissions for adults aged 15-84 years were identified from electronic hospital data. We calculated age-standardised and age-specific rates, and examined trends using joinpoint. RESULTS: From 1968 to 2016, there were 3.5 million admissions for MI in England (68% men). Rates increased…
Assessing the external validity of model-based estimates of the incidence of heart attack in England
By comparison with AMI incidence rates in England, DisMod II did not achieve external validity for age-specific incidence rates, but did provide global estimates of incidence that are of similar magnitude to measured estimates. The model should be used with caution when estimating age-specific incidence rates
Patterns and trends in long-term opioid use for non-cancer pain in British Columbia, 2005–2012
Geographic Variations in Prescription Opioid Dispensations and Deaths Among Women and Men in British Columbia, Canada
OBJECTIVES: We quantify patterns in prescription opioid dispensations to individuals who suffered a prescription opioid-related death. In addition, we examine the relationship between opioid dispensations and prescription opioid-related deaths in geographic regions of British Columbia (BC). METHODS: We used population-based administrative data on prescription drug dispensations to identify patterns in prescription opioid dispensations to individu…
P2-333 Acute myocardial infarction
Introduction There are several population-based English studies of AMI, but they are local rather than national, do not necessarily distinguish first events and re-infarctions, and are out of date. Our objective was to study AMI incidence and 30-day case fatality rates (CFRs) for first and recurrent events in England in 2007 (population 51.8 million). Methods Analysis of linked routine national hospital and mortality data, with an 8-year washout …
