Coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) is characterized by severe lung involvement and hemodynamic alterations. Critical care ultrasonography vital because it provides real time information for diagnosis treatment. Suggested protocols image acquisition measurements have not yet been evaluated.This cross-sectional study was conducted at two centers from 1 April 2020 to 30 May in adult patients with confirmed COVID-19 infection admitted the critical unit. Cardiac pulmonary evaluations were...
BackgroundA low proportion of patients with ST-elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI) in low- to middle-income countries receive reperfusion therapy. Although primary percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) is the method choice, a pharmacoinvasive strategy (PIs) reasonable when PCI cannot be delivered on timely basis. The aim our study was assess efficacy and safety PIs compared real-world setting.MethodsThis prospective registry that included STEMI who received during first 12 hours from...
Abstract Background COVID-19 has challenged the health system organization requiring a fast reorganization of diagnostic/therapeutic pathways for patients affected by time-dependent diseases such as acute coronary syndromes (ACS). Aim To describe ACS hospitalizations, management, and complication rate before after pandemic was declared. Design Ecological retrospective study. Methods: We analyzed aggregated epidemiological data all > 18 years old admitted in twenty-nine hub cardiac...
Recently, the role of trace elements in pathophysiology obesity, insulin resistance (IR), and metabolic diseases has been explored. In this cross-sectional study, we aimed to assess association overweight, cardiometabolic traits with serum copper (Cu) levels 346 Mexican adults. Serum Cu level was measured by inductively coupled plasma mass spectrometry (ICP-MS). Anthropometrical data were collected, biochemical parameters measured. The triglyceride-glucose (TyG) index used as a surrogate...
Summary Background B-lines have been associated with adverse clinical outcomes in patients heart failure (HF) when found at hospital discharge or during outpatient visits. Whether lung ultrasound (LUS) assessed may predict in-hospital mortality acute HF is still undetermined. Aim To evaluate the association between on admission and among admitted HF. Methods Hand-held LUS was used to examine performed eight chest zones a pocket device analyzed offline. The using Cox regression models....
To determine if exposure to organic solvents and noise is associated with audiometric results among workers from a printing press in Mexico City.Cross-sectional study.One hundred seventy-six male at City exposed solvents, including xylene, 103 non-exposed as reference group. Hearing thresholds were assessed pure-tone audiometry.Poorer hearing observed than controls, particularly groups over 5 years of exposure. differences the frequencies above 500 Hz, especially 4000 Hz all compared...
Background: Lung ultrasound (LUS) shows a higher sensitivity when compared with physical examination for the detection of pulmonary congestion. The objective our study was to evaluate association congestion assessed by LUS after reperfusion therapy cardiovascular outcomes in patients ST-segment Elevation acute Myocardial Infarction (STEMI) who received therapy. Methods: A prospective observational including STEMI from PHASE-Mx study. performed four thoracic sites (two each hemithorax). We...
Objectives: To identify blood lead predictors and the prevalence of neuropsychiatric symptoms in firearm users public security Mexico.Material Methods: A cross-sectional study was performed on 65 males.We obtained sociooccupational data determined venous (blood (B), (Pb) -BPb), as well using Q-16 questionnaire.A multiple linear regression model constructed to assess determinants BPb. Results:The mean age group 34.8 years (standard deviation (SD) = 6.9, range: 21-60); number spent company...
Objective:The objective of PHASE-MX registry is to validate the efficacy and safety pharmacoinvasive strategy in comparison with percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) patients acute myocardial infarction ST segment elevation (STEMI) a metropolitan region Mexico.The primary outcome will consist composite cardiovascular death, re-infarction, stroke cardiogenic shock.Methods: The include prospective cohort STEMI who received reperfusion treatment (mechanical pharmacological) first 12 h after...
Background: Gender-based differences among cardiology professionals have been reported in North America and Europe.However, the perspective of Latin American cardiologists remains unexplored.Objectives: The objectives study were to analyze gender gap from America.Methods: A cross-sectional using an online survey directed five different societies.The included questions on demographic data, professional development field cardiology, perceived barriers clinical practice.Results: total 240...
Gender-based differences among cardiology professionals have been reported in North America and Europe. However, the perspective of Latin American cardiologists remains unexplored.The objectives study were to analyze gender gap from America.A cross-sectional using an online survey directed five different societies. The included questions on demographic data, professional development field cardiology, perceived barriers clinical practice.A total 240 surveyed, which 41.7% women (100) 58.3% men...
Long commute times are common in big cities.To determine hearing thresholds and their association with time Mexico City.Cross-sectional study that included 177 healthy adults from 2009 to 2011. Demographic information were recorded. Hearing was assessed by audiometry. Regression models constructed the predictors of thresholds.There 101 men (53%) 76 women (43%). Mean 43 minutes (1-150 minutes). A threshold drop observed at 4000 Hz, recovery 8000 Hz both ears when patients stratified gender...
Objective:The objective of the study was to describe myocardial infarction treatment network and compare in-hospital mortality in patients undergoing either primary angioplasty or pharmacoinvasive strategy Mexico City a broad metropolitan area.Methods: Cohort including with ST-elevation infarction.We recorded demographic clinical data, laboratory tests that underwent strategy.Kaplan-Meier analysis used assess Cox-regression assessed risk factors.Results: Three hundred forty from 60 hospitals...
Objective. To assess neuropsychological performance among workers at a paint factory in Mexico City. Materials and methods. During 2004 2005 we assessed the of 208 who were exposed to organic solvents factory, mainly toluene xylene. We categorized into low high exposure groups using cumulative index for toluene, based on times spent different tasks. evaluated cognitive motor functions with 13 tests. Results. found lower attention, longer time complete test β=5.5 (R2=12.3%), score...
Malignant pleural mesothelioma (MPM) is a cancer associated with asbestos exposure and its diagnosis challenging due to the moderate sensitivities of available methods. In this regard, miR-103a-3p was considered increase sensitivity established biomarkers detect MPM. Its behavior diagnostic value in Mexican population has not been previously evaluated. 108 confirmed MPM cases 218 controls, almost all formerly exposed asbestos, we quantified miR-103-3a-3p levels leukocytes using quantitative...
