Latin Americans are underrepresented in the current equations used to estimate glomerular filtration rate (GFR), and applicability of their predictions this population may therefore be questionable. The objective study was develop a new equation GFR based on data from Argentina. A cross-sectional conducted. We included 583 Argentinian adults development sample (DS) 78 temporary validation (TVS). Urinary iothalamate clearance (reference method), different predictive variables were candidate...
Background/Objective The 2019 American College of Rheumatology/European League Against Rheumatism Classification Criteria (2019 AECC) for IgG4-related disease (IgG4-RD) is considered a significant advancement in the study this condition. Most studies evaluating their performance have focused on White and Asian patients, leaving knowledge gap regarding Latin populations. Therefore, aimed to assess AECC IgG4-RD cohort patients. Methods A multicenter medical records review was conducted,...
Streptococcus agalactiae or group B streptococcus (GBS) is a frequent pathogen in immunocompromised adults. The aim of this study was to determine the relative frequency, clinical presentation, antimicrobial susceptibility profile, and risk factors associated with GBS bacteremia non-pregnant adult patients. We conducted retrospective analysis blood cultures performed two hospitals between years 2009-2013. From 1110 episodes, 13 were caused by GBS, all which susceptible ampicillin. more...
Introducción: La enfermedad COVID-19 muestra una marcada heterogeneidad en su curso clínico, habiéndose descripto algunos factores que se asocian un peor pronóstico. El conocimiento del comportamiento de la el escenario local es gran relevancia para permitir mejor abordaje. 
 Métodos: Estudio retrospectivo dos hospitales ciudad Córdoba, Argentina, pacientes 18 años o más hospitalizados por infección activa SARS-CoV-2, desde marzo a octubre año 2020. Resultados: Se incluyeron 448...
Background/Objective Data on IgG4-related disease (IgG4-RD) come almost exclusively from cohorts Asia, Europe, and North America. We conducted this study to describe the clinical presentation, phenotype distribution, association with sex, ethnicity, serological markers in a large cohort of Latin American patients IgG4-RD. Methods performed multicenter medical records review including 184 IgG4-RD patients. assigned phenotypes: group 1 (pancreato-hepato-biliary), 2 (retroperitoneal/aortic), 3...
Introducción: Las infecciones del tracto urinario (ITU) constituyen la infección más frecuente en los trasplantados renales (TR). El objetivo principal fue determinar las características clínicas y microbiológicas de ITU que ocurren durante el primer año posterior al TR.
 Metodología: Estudio cohorte retrospectivo, donde se incluyeron pacientes mayores 18 años recibieron un TR entre 2009-2020 dos hospitales ciudad Córdoba. A través registro historias realizó seguimiento postrasplante...
Uncomplicated urinary tract infections(UC-UTI) represent a frequent reason for consultation. Most cases are empirically treated, but the antimicrobial susceptibility of causative microorganisms has changed over past years. The objectives this study where to determine UC-UTI microorganism and their profiles in adult women.A prospective analytic was conducted two hospital Córdoba, Argentina, between November/2016 October/2017. From identification positive urine cultures, infections (UTI) women...
Urinary tract infections (UTI) are the most frequent infection in kidney transplant (KT) patients. The objectives of study were: to determine clinical and microbiological characteristics UTIs that occur during first year after KT, evaluate whether there was a change incidence extended-spectrum beta-lactamase (ESBL)-producing microorganisms between two time periods analyze possible risk factors for development UTI due multidrug-resistant (MRM).
COVID-19 generated at least 700 million infections in the world. Among survivors, many have long-term cardiovascular, pulmonary, neurological, and cognitive sequelae. Acute kidney injury (AKI) associated with presents a complex physio-pathogenesis, affecting function through different mechanisms (including direct tissue viral invasion), producing tubulo-interstitial, glomerular and/or vascular damage. The incidence among hospitalized patients was 17% (although some series it up to 80%).
Introduction: At the beginning of COVID-19 pandemic, confinement measures were applied in many states around world, producing changes lifestyle and health habits, whose metabolic impact was different populations. Objectives: Describe anthropometric office patients City Córdoba during period determine possible associated factors. Methods: Retrospective analytical observational study based on review medical records seen an endocrinology clinic Córdoba, Argentina. They followed up 1-year by...
Nosocomially acquired urinary tract infections (NAUTI) represent an important public health issue, but its characteristics when they are not catheter associated (CA-UTI) or take place outside intensive care units (ICU) poorly understood.To determine the patients' characteristics, etiology and antimicrobial susceptibility of NAUTI, both CA-UTI no CA-UTI, in general ward ICU.We conducted a retrospective analytic cross-sectional study, between 2009 2013, third level universitary hospital. All...
Sickle cell trait (SCT) is a rare and underdiagnosed disorder in the Argentinian population. In this condition, individuals carry mutation of HbS gene one two beta-globin genes. general, SCT does not present with typical manifestations sickle anemia. However, under certain circumstances, some clinical characteristics disease may develop.We discussed case 39-Year old man who presented persistent abdominal pain unknown origin after traveling to high-altitude place. He underwent laparotomy...
Las infecciones del torrente sanguíneo (IS) en pacientes oncológicos neutropénicos constituyen una patología de relevancia y se asocian a un aumento la morbimortalidad. El objetivo este estudio fue determinar las características epidemiológicas microbiológicas los episodios IS adultos con neoplasias hematológicas (NH) sólidas (NS). Se realizó retrospectivo dos hospitales tercer nivel entre 2009 2016. incluyeron todos mayores 18 años NH NS que presentaron IS. excluyeron aquellos...
