To derive the number of cholecystectomies performed for BD, we used the ICD-9 code 575.8, greater than 80% of which are patients with BD. The same or equivalent code was used for the international comparator group. Through a SURGINET query we o...

This rise was most pronounced in the paediatric population (700% increase), with biliary dyskinesia accounting for...
We asked whether individuals with B-SIT also had a diagnosis of asthma (ICD-10 code J45). We matched cases with controls (1:3 in INPCR and 1:1 in TriNetX), controlling for age, sex, ethnicity, and race. We used conditional logistic regression adjusted for the matching strategy....

(Toxocara canissIgG, total IgE, and eosinophils) and abnormalities observed in lung and pleural X-ray imaging led to the correct diagnosis: pleural effusion, not elsewhere classified (ICD-10 code: J90), associated with Löffler’s syndrome (eosinophilic pneumonia caused by toxocariasis). The ...
