The measured results and 3D technology computer aided design simulations demonstrate that the devices with different channel lengths may exhibit an enhanced reverse short channel effect after radiation.

We hypothesized that persistent hyperglycemia is associated with increased length of stay (LOS) and increased total cost in patients admitted with CHF. Methods: We studied 203 consecutive patients admitted with a primary diagnosis of CHF. Patient characteristics, admission glucose, mean blood glucose (MBG) during the entire hospital stay, length of stay, total cost, and readmission rates were assessed. Persistent hyperglycemia was defined as a MBG level ≥140 mg/dl. Results:Patients with persistent hyperglycemia had longer mean LOS (8.1 vs 5.2 days, p = 0.001) and higher total hospital costs (median $8940 vs $6892, p = 0.01) independent of diabetes status. Similarly, prolonged hospital stay >7 days (38% vs 21%;p = 0.01) and total cost >$10,000/patient (46% vs 29%;p = 0.01) were seen more commonly in patients with poor glucometrics. Neither admission glucose >140 mg/ dL or diabetes status was predictive of total costs or LOS. In multivariate linear regression, only MBG ≥ 140 mg/dl was associated with increased LOS and total cost. Patients with persistent hyperglycemia also had higher 6 months all-cause readmission rates (51% vs 37%;p = 0.03). Conclusion: Persistent hyperglycemia (MBG > 140 mg/dL), but not admission glucose, was associated with increased LOS, total cost and readmission rates independent of diabetes status. Our study emphasizes the need to further examine the role of glycemic control in patients admitted with CHF.展开更多
