Timing of surgery following SARS-CoV-2 infection: an international prospective cohort study
2021
Peri-operative SARS-CoV-2 infection increases postoperative mortality. The aim of this study was to determine the optimal duration of planned delay before surgery in patients who have had SARS-CoV-2 infection. This international, multicentre, prospective cohort study included patients undergoing elective or emergency surgery during October 2020. Surgical patients with pre-operative SARS-CoV-2 infection were compared with those without previous SARS-CoV-2 infection. The primary outcome measure was 30-day postoperative mortality. Logistic regression models were used to calculate adjusted 30-day mortality rates stratified by time from diagnosis of SARS-CoV-2 infection to surgery. Among 140,231…
Morphometry and subpopulation structure of Holstein bull spermatozoa: variations in ejaculates and cryopreservation straws
2016
Artículo científico Sperm quality is evaluated for the calculation of sperm dosage in artificial reproductive programs. The most common parameter used is motility, but morphology has a higher potential as a predictor of genetic quality. Morphometry calculations from CASA‑Morph technology improve morphological evaluation and allow mathematical approaches to the problem. Semen from 28 Holstein bulls was collected by artificial vagina, and several ejaculates were studied. After general evaluation, samples were diluted, packaged in 0.25 ml straws, and stored in liquid nitrogen. Two straws per sample were thawed, and slides were processed and stained with Diff‑Quik. Samples were analyzed by a CA…
Prognostic Impact of Hyponatremia and Hypernatremia in COVID-19 Pneumonia. A HOPE-COVID-19 (Health Outcome Predictive Evaluation for COVID-19) Regist…
2020
Dysnatremia is associated with increased mortality in patients with community-acquired pneumonia. SARS-COV2 (Severe-acute-respiratory syndrome caused by Coronavirus-type 2) pneumonia can be fatal. The aim of this study was to ascertain whether admittance dysnatremia is associated with mortality, sepsis, or intensive therapy (IT) in patients hospitalized with SARS-COV2 pneumonia. This is a retrospective study of the HOPE-COVID-19 registry, with data collected from January 1th through April 31th, 2020. We selected all hospitalized adult patients with RT-PCR-confirmed SARS-COV2 pneumonia and a registered admission serum sodium level (SNa). Patients were classified as hyponatremic (SNa <…
Frequency of Renal Dysfunction and Frailty in Patients ≥80 Years of Age With Acute Coronary Syndromes.
2019
While a significant association between renal function and outcomes in patients with acute coronary syndromes (ACS) has been consistently described, little information exists about the magnitude of this association in patients at older ages. No study assessed the prognostic role of renal function according to frailty in patients with ACS. The LONGEVO-SCA registry included unselected ACS patients aged≥80 years. Frailty was asessesed by the FRAIL scale, and baseline creatinine clearance was calculated by the Cockroff-Gault formula. We evaluated the impact of renal function on mortality or readmission at 6-months according to frailty status by the Cox regression method. A total of 473 patients…
Trends of mortality due to oral and oropharyngeal cancers in Uruguay from 1997 to 2014
2020
Background To analyze the trends of oral and oropharyngeal cancer mortality in Uruguay between 1997 and 2014 according to sex and age groups and its possible association with sociodemographic factors. Material and Methods A time-series ecological study using secondary data was performed. The data about mortality due to oral and oropharyngeal cancers were obtained from the Statistics Vitals Department of the Public Health Ministry of Uruguay. To estimate the mortality trends of the historical series, by sex, anatomical site and age groups, linear regressions generated by the Prais-Winsten procedure were used. Results The analysis of mortality trends for oral cavity and oropharyngeal cancers …
Differential prognostic impact of type 2 diabetes mellitus in women and men with heart failure with preserved ejection fraction
2020
Introduction and objectives Type 2 diabetes mellitus (DM2) is a common comorbidity in patients with heart failure (HF) with preserved ejection fraction (HFpEF). Previous studies have shown that diabetic women are at higher risk of developing HF than men. However, the long-term prognosis of diabetic HFpEF patients by sex has not been extensively explored. In this study, we aimed to evaluate the differential impact of DM2 on all-cause mortality in men vs women with HFpEF after admission for acute HF. Methods We prospectively included 1019 consecutive HFpEF patients discharged after admission for acute HF in a single tertiary referral hospital. Multivariate Cox regression analysis was used to …
Obtención de tablas de mortalidad por comparación con las de otros ámbitos en períodos pasados
2000
Se expone un procedimiento para la obtención de una tabla de mortalidad cuando no se dispone de suficiente información para su cálculo directo. Es de aplicación cuando pueden relacionarse el comportamiento seguido por una población con el de una población testigo o de referencia, en pasados momentos o referencias temporales, de forma que esta comparación permite estimar el comportamiento actual de la población de interés ante el hecho demográfico mortalidad. It is exposed a procedure for the obtainment of a mortality table when is not had sufficient information for their/its/your/his direct calculation. It is of application when they can be related the behavior followed by a population with…
Anàlisi de la mortalitat a Espanya durant el període 2000-2016. Dones
2018
Anàlisi descriptiva de la mortalitat a Espanya (dones) durant el període 2000-2016. Per cada un dels anys del període es presenten el model de mortalitat, el model d'anys potencials de vida perduts suposant que la mortalitat entre 1 i 79 anys és evitable i el model d'anys potencials de vida perduts suposant que la mortalitat entre 1 i 69 anys és evitable. Es completa l’anàlisi amb l'evolució de la mortalitat de les principals causes de defunció durant el període. En l’evolució de la mortalitat s’han inclòs totes les causes que es reflecteixen als models de mortalitat i d’anys potencials de vida perduts dels anys 2000 i 2016, ordenant les causes d’acord al nombre de defuncions observades l’a…

RESUMEN EJECUTIVO DEL CONSENSO DE EXPERTOS SOBRE LA EFICACIA Y SEGURIDAD DE LOS iDPP-4 EN EL TRATAMIENTO DE PACIENTES CON DIABETES Y COVID-19
2021
Resumen Antecedentes El objetivo de este consenso es esclarecer el papel de los iDPP-4 en el manejo de los pacientes con diabetes durante la pandemia por COVID-19. Material y metodos Se llevo a cabo una busqueda bibliografica en PubMed (diciembre 2019-febrero de 2021). Se empleo la metodologia Oxford y se establecieron de forma consensuada posibles recomendaciones. Resultados La diabetes parece ser un factor independiente en la enfermedad de COVID-19 (evidencia 2b). No se demuestra mayor riesgo de contagio con iDPP-4 (evidencia 2b), y su uso ha demostrado ser seguro (evidencia 2b). Los iDPP-4 pueden presentar un cierto beneficio en la reduccion de la mortalidad, particularmente su uso intra…
