Nonspecific Immunoglobulin Replacement in Lung Transplantation Recipients With Hypogammaglobulinemia
International audienceBACKGROUND: After lung transplantation (LT), immunoglobulin (Ig) G plasma concentrations<6 g/L are common and correlate with an increased risk of chronic lung allograft dysfunction (CLAD) and a poorer survival.METHODS: We conducted an open substitution intervention with nonspecific intravenous Ig (IVIg), in all patients with IgG plasma less than 6 g/L post-LT in 54 of 84 consecutive recipients since 1998 who survived more than 3 months. Pre-LT and post-LT events were retrospectively analyzed
Cohort Creation and Visualization Using Graph Model in the PREDIMED Health Data Warehouse
International audienceGrenoble Alpes University Hospital (CHUGA) is currently deploying a health data warehouse called PREDIMED [1], a platform designed to integrate and analyze for research, education and institutional management the data of patients treated at CHUGA. PREDIMED contains healthcare data, administrative data and, potentially, data from external databases. PREDIMED is hosted by the CHUGA Information Systems Department and benefits from its strict security rules. CHUGA’s institutional project PREDIMED aims to collaborate with similar projects in France and worldwide. In this paper, we present how the data model defined to implement PREDIMED at CHUGA is useful for medical experts to interactively build a cohort of patients and to visualize this cohort
