Aim: This study aims to assess the changes in antimicrobial resistance among some critical and high-priority microorganisms collected previously during coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) pandemic Mexico. Methods: We susceptibility data for from blood, urine, respiratory samples, all specimens, which pathogen may be considered a causative agent. Data were stratified compared two periods: versus 2020 second semester (prepandemic) (pandemic). Results: In analysis of 2020, blood increased...
Risk factors for developing long COVID are not clearly established. The present study was designed to determine if any sign, symptom, or treatment of the acute phase, personal characteristics patient, is associated with development COVID.A cohort carried out, randomly selecting symptomatic COVID-19 patients and vaccinated. severity illness assessed through number compatible symptoms, hospitalizations, symptom score using a 10-point visual analog scale.After multivariate analysis, ≥8 (RR 2.0,...
Ulcerative colitis (UC) and Crohn disease (CD) are the most common forms of inflammatory bowel (IBD). Because these subtypes IBD characterized by periods activity remission, an understanding modulation biochemical markers with clinical features or its treatment, may be useful for determining correct treatment protocol.This study aimed to evaluate serum levels 27 protein biomarkers determine their association IBD, correlation findings disease, according pharmacologic therapy.A case-control...
Introduction During severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) infection, the virus hijacks mitochondria causing damage of its membrane and release mt-DNA into circulation which can trigger innate immunity generate an inflammatory state. In this study, we explored importance peripheral blood as early predictor evolution in patients with COVID-19 to evaluate association between concentration severity disease patient’s outcome. Methods A total 102 (51 cases 51 controls) were...
COVID-19 vaccines primarily prevent severe illnesses or hospitalization, but there is limited data on their impact during hospitalization for seriously ill patients. In a Mexican cohort with high mortality, study assessed vaccination's effects. From 2021 to 2022, 462 patients 4455 hospital days were analyzed. The generalized multivariate linear mixed model (GENLINMIXED) binary logistic regression link, survival analysis and ROC curves used identify risk factors death. results showed that the...
Traditional and complementary medicine (T&CM) plays a significant role in healthcare practices among professionals oncology patients Mexico, reflecting its cultural importance. This study aimed to analyze the prevalence, frequency, factors associated with T&CM use these two groups, highlighting differences perceptions. A total of 382 individuals participated, including 152 230 patients. The findings revealed that while was similarly prevalent (85.7%) (90.8%), frequent (≥2 times per...
Deaths from suicide are a tragic yet preventable cause of mortality. Quantifying the burden to understand its geographical distribution, temporal trends, and variation by age sex is an essential step in prevention. We aimed present comprehensive set global, regional, national estimates burden. produced number deaths age-standardised mortality rates globally, regionally, for 204 countries territories 1990 2021, disaggregated these results sex. The Global Burden Diseases, Injuries, Risk...
Suicidal behavior among medical students is a significant concern, requiring thorough understanding of effective intervention and prevention strategies. This study aimed to generate situational diagnosis establish the risk factors associated with suicidal students. In cross-sectional cohort design, we surveyed 688 in Zacatecas, Mexico, employing 14 validated questionnaires assess behavior, aspects their lifestyle, perceived support, including mental health disorders, substance use....
Background/Objectives: Metastatic prostate cancer remains a major clinical challenge, with limited therapeutic options. Doxycycline, tetracycline antibiotic anti-inflammatory properties, has shown potential as an adjunctive therapy. This study aimed to evaluate its efficacy in reducing prostate-specific antigen (PSA) levels and improving quality of life patients receiving standard treatment for metastatic cancer. Methods: phase II, double-blind, randomized controlled trial included 45...
Background and Objectives: Arteriovenous fistulas (AVFs) are the preferred vascular access for hemodialysis due to their impact on patient outcomes, including survival, infection rates, overall quality of life. Despite strong recommendations favoring AVF, gaps in AVF utilization remain, influenced by clinical, demographic, systemic factors. This study is first analyze survival outcomes associated with different dialysis types, adjusting key demographic variables, other comorbidities over...
Cardiovascular diseases (CVDs) are the leading cause of mortality worldwide, with growing concerns about impact omega-6 polyunsaturated fatty acids (n-6 PUFAs) on cardiovascular health. This study aims to evaluate relationship between serum linoleic acid (LA) levels and waist-to-height ratio (WHtR), a recognized risk marker, in children. The research was conducted two parts. First, global analysis publicly available data (2019–2021) explored association nutritional factors CVD prevalence...
This study examines how COVID-19 restrictions influenced the location of first sexual intercourse among Mexican university students. The sample included 221 students who initiated activity during pandemic and 162 did so before or after. During pandemic, there was a significant change, with reduction in relations at parents' houses (from 54.9% to 40.3%) an increase sex rented/borrowed 9.3% 19.5%) outdoor spaces 2.5% 9.5%). However, all times, even restrictions, house remained most common site...

Abstract Estrogens demonstrate biological activity in numerous organ systems, including the immune system, and exert their effects through estrogen receptors (ER) of two types: intracellular ERα ERβ that activate transcriptional factors membrane G protein-coupled ER GPER. The latter is capable to mediate fast activation cytosolic signaling pathways, influencing events response estrogens. Tamoxifen (TAM), widely used chemotherapy ERα-positive breast cancer, considered as an antagonist GPER...
