Wilson's disease in Spain: validation of sources of information used by the Rare Diseases Registries
2021
[ES] Objetivo: Evaluar las fuentes de información empleadas por los Registros Autonómicos de Enfermedades Raras (RAER) para la captación de la enfermedad de Wilson en España, calcular su prevalencia y mortalidad, y describir las características sociodemográficas de las personas afectadas. Método: Estudio epidemiológico transversal, periodo 2010-2015. Se captaron los posibles casos mediante los códigos 275.1 (CIE-9-MC), E83.0 (CIE-10) y 905 ORPHA en 15 RAER y el Registro de Pacientes de Enfermedades Raras del Instituto de Salud Carlos III. Los diagnósticos fueron validados revisando la documentación clínica. Se calcularon el valor predictivo positivo (VPP) de las fuentes de información, la p…

Hypersensitivity and hyperalgesia in somatoform pain disorders.
2014
Abstract Objective In psychiatry, pain disorders not explained by structural lesions have been classified for decades as somatoform pain disorders , the underlying concept being somatization. In a parallel move, somatic medicine has defined an expanding group of similar pain disorders, known as functional pain syndromes . Functional pain syndromes are characterized by enhanced pain sensitivity. The aim of our study was to investigate the proportion of patients with somatoform pain disorders who also meet the criteria of functional pain syndromes and the extent to which patients with somatoform pain disorders also show enhanced pain sensitivity. Methods Data on pain sensitivity in 120 hospit…
Improved effectiveness from individualized dosing of self-administered biologics for the treatment of moderate-to-severe psoriasis: a 5-year retrospe…
2019
Background: Biologics for moderate-to-severe psoriasis are expensive and treatment substitutions may vastly increase cost. Moreover, administration regimens in routine practice may differ from recommended guidelines. Objectives: To evaluate long-term effectiveness, regimen, drug-survival, and efficiency of self-administered biologics in clinical practice. Methods: We performed a 5-year retrospective study in 72 patients (44 ± 14 years old) with moderate-to-severe psoriasis at the University Hospital La Plana (Vila-real, Spain), treated with subcutaneous biologics. We determined the effectiveness (PASI 75 or PASI < 5), and drug-survival using Kaplan-Meier estimates, and analyzed reasons for …
Long-term weight loss maintenance after inpatient psychotherapy of severely obese patients based on a randomized study: predictors and maintaining fa…
2006
Abstract Objective The objective of this study was to identify predictors of long-term weight loss after inpatient psychodynamic or behavioral psychotherapy of severely obese patients. Methods In a longitudinal study, obese patients [body mass index (BMI)≥35 kg/m2] were randomly assigned to behavioral or psychodynamic inpatient treatment. The average treatment duration was 7 weeks. Two hundred sixty-seven obese patients, mostly female (85%), with psychiatric and somatic comorbidity (age, 20–64 years; BMI=35–74 kg/m2) were examined with standardized self-report scales at intake, discharge, 1-year follow-up, and 3-year follow-up. Results Overall, 3 years after inpatient psychotherapy, irrespe…
Depression prevalence using the HADS-D compared to SCID major depression classification: An individual participant data meta-analysis.
2020
Objectives Validated diagnostic interviews are required to classify depression status and estimate prevalence of disorder, but screening tools are often used instead. We used individual participant data meta-analysis to compare prevalence based on standard Hospital Anxiety and Depression Scale – depression subscale (HADS-D) cutoffs of ≥8 and ≥11 versus Structured Clinical Interview for DSM (SCID) major depression and determined if an alternative HADS-D cutoff could more accurately estimate prevalence. Methods We searched Medline, Medline In-Process & Other Non-Indexed Citations via Ovid, PsycINFO, and Web of Science (inception-July 11, 2016) for studies comparing HADS-D scores to SCID major…
Quality of life and subjective well-being in schizophrenia and schizophrenia spectrum disorders : Valid predictors of symptomatic response and remiss…
2010
To examine quality of life and subjective well-being as predictors of symptomatic treatment outcome.Biweekly PANSS ratings were performed in 285 inpatients with schizophrenia spectrum disorders within a multicenter trial by the German Research Network on Schizophrenia. Quality of life and subjective well-being were assessed using the Medical Outcomes Study-Short Form 36-Item Health Survey (SF-36), the Subjective Well-being Under Neuroleptic Treatment Scale (SWN-K) and the Adjective Mood Scale (AMS). Response was defined as an initial 20% PANSS total score reduction and remission according to the consensus criteria. Correlation analysis, logistic regression and CART-analysis were performed.I…
Co-detection of respiratory pathogens in patients hospitalized with Coronavirus viral disease-2019 pneumonia.
2020
ABSTRACTThere is scarce information on the frequency of co-detection of respiratory pathogens (RP) in patients with Covid-19. Documentation of coinfections in Covid-19 pneumonia patients may be relevant for appropriate clinical and therapeutic management of patients. Between March 4th and March 28th, 2020, a total of 183 adult patients testing positive by SARS CoV-2 RT-PCR on respiratory specimens were hospitalized with interstitial pneumonia at our center, of whom 103 were tested for other RP by a multiplexed PCR assay. Three patients had a positive result for either one (n=2; Coronavirus HKU1 or Mycoplasma pneumoniae) or two targets (n=1; Influenza virus A (H3) and Respiratory syncytial v…
Wound Care Management: impact on outcomes of nursing care
2017
SCOPO: Valutare la gestione del wound-care all’interno di un Policlinico di Roma. METODO: Studio osservazionale, diviso in due fasi, attraverso l’analisi di 301 cartelle infermieristiche di pazienti ricoverati presso il Policlinico con lesioni da pressione già in atto o sviluppate successivamente al ricovero. 151 sono state analizzate direttamente nei reparti di degenza nel biennio 2013-2014. 150 sono state reperite in versione digitale e si riferiscono al triennio 2010-2012. RISULTATI: La documentazione infermieristica relativa alle lesioni da pressione risulta completa, come da protocollo ospedaliero, mediamente nel 4%. Le schede Push Tool e Braden sono presenti nelle cartelle rispettivam…
Laparoscopic ileocecal resection in acute and chronic presentations of Crohn's disease. A single center experience
2017
Introduction The terminal ileum is the most involved tract in Crohn's disease. The obstruction in this location is the most frequent complication. Acute or chronic presentations can occur. Surgery finds a role in the management of chronic strictures and in acute clinical presentations with complications not improving with conservative therapy. Patients and methods We investigate the outcome of patients with obstruction of the ileo-cecal bowel tract laparoscopically managed. It was analyzed the average operative time (OT), the conversion rate and the occurrence of re-operation due to surgical complications. Results 21 patients underwent an ileocecal resection for complicated Crohn's disease …
