    Resumen: Objetivo: Estimar para el Instituto los costos directos de las hospitalizaciones por diabetes mellitus y sus complicaciones en el Instituto Mexicano del Seguro Social. Método: Se estimaron los costos hospitalarios de la atención a pacientes con diabetes mellitus utilizando los grupos relacionados por el diagnóstico en el Instituto Mexicano del Seguro Social (IMSS) entre 2008 y 2013, y los egresos hospitalarios de los códigos E10-E14 correspondientes a diabetes mellitus. Los costos se agruparon según características demográficas y afección principal, y se estimaron en dólares estadounidenses de 2013. Resultados: Se registraron 411.302 egresos hospitalarios por diabetes mellitus, con un costo de 1563 millones de dólares. El 52,44% correspondieron a hombres y el 77,26% fueron por diabetes mellitus tipo 2. El mayor costo es atribuible a las complicaciones circulatorias periféricas (34,84%) y a las personas con 45-64 años de edad (47,1%). En el periodo analizado, los egresos disminuyeron un 3,84% y los costos totales un 1,75%. Las complicaciones que provocaron mayor variación de los costos fueron la cetoacidosis (50,70%), las oftálmicas (22,6%) y las circulatorias (18,81%). Conclusiones: La atención hospitalaria de la diabetes mellitus representa un importante reto financiero para el IMSS, y más aún lo es el incremento en la frecuencia de las hospitalizaciones en población en edad productiva, que afecta a la sociedad en su conjunto, lo que sugiere la necesidad de fortalecer las acciones de control de las personas diabéticas con miras a prevenir complicaciones que requieran atención hospitalaria. Abstract: Objective: To estimate the direct costs related to hospitalizations for diabetes mellitus and its complications in the Mexican Institute of Social Security Methods: The hospital care costs of patients with diabetes mellitus using diagnosis-related groups in the IMSS (Mexican Institute of Social Security) and the hospital discharges from the corresponding E10-E14 codes for diabetes mellitus were estimated between 2008-2013. Costs were grouped according to demographic characteristics and main condition, and were estimated in US dollars in 2013. Results: 411,302 diabetes mellitus discharges were recorded, representing a cost of $1,563 million. 52.44% of hospital discharges were men and 77.26% were for type 2 diabetes mellitus. The biggest cost was attributed to peripheral circulatory complications (34.84%) and people from 45-64 years of age (47.1%). Discharges decreased by 3.84% and total costs by 1.75% in the period analysed. The complications that caused the biggest cost variations were ketoacidosis (50.7%), ophthalmic (22.6%) and circulatory (18.81%). Conclusions: Hospital care for diabetes mellitus represents an important financial challenge for the IMSS. The increase in the frequency of hospitalisations in the productive age group, which affects society as a whole, is an even bigger challenge, and suggests the need to strengthen monitoring of diabetics in order to prevent complications that require hospital care.

    Objective:To develop and validate a prediction model (STOMA score) for 1-year stoma-free survival in patients with rectal cancer (RC) with anastomotic leakage (AL).Background:AL after RC resection often results in a permanent stoma.Methods:This international retrospective cohort study (TENTACLE-Rectum) encompassed 216 participating centres and included patients who developed AL after RC surgery between 2014 and 2018. Clinically relevant predictors for 1-year stoma-free survival were included in uni and multivariable logistic regression models. The STOMA score was developed and internally validated in a cohort of patients operated between 2014 and 2017, with subsequent temporal validation in a 2018 cohort. The discriminative power and calibration of the models' performance were evaluated.Results:This study included 2499 patients with AL, 1954 in the development cohort and 545 in the validation cohort. Baseline characteristics were comparable. One-year stoma-free survival was 45.0% in the development cohort and 43.7% in the validation cohort. The following predictors were included in the STOMA score: sex, age, American Society of Anestesiologist classification, body mass index, clinical M-disease, neoadjuvant therapy, abdominal and transanal approach, primary defunctioning stoma, multivisceral resection, clinical setting in which AL was diagnosed, postoperative day of AL diagnosis, abdominal contamination, anastomotic defect circumference, bowel wall ischemia, anastomotic fistula, retraction, and reactivation leakage. The STOMA score showed good discrimination and calibration (c-index: 0.71, 95% CI: 0.66-0.76).Conclusions:The STOMA score consists of 18 clinically relevant factors and estimates the individual risk for 1-year stoma-free survival in patients with AL after RC surgery, which may improve patient counseling and give guidance when analyzing the efficacy of different treatment strategies in future studies
