The SARS-CoV-2 pandemic remains a critical global health concern, with older adults being the most vulnerable group. Nonetheless, it is crucial to recognize that COVID-19 has caused numerous deaths in children worldwide. Emerging evidence indicates infants and breastfeeding children, particularly those aged below one year, face greater risk of hospitalization mortality than COVID-19.This study aimed describe epidemiology among during early phase Ecuador.We conducted country-wide...
The phenomenon of antimicrobial resistance (AMR) in cold environments, exemplified by the Antarctic, calls into question assumption that pristine ecosystems lack clinically significant genes. This study examines molecular basis AMR Acinetobacter spp. Isolated from Antarctic soil, focusing on blaTEM and blaSHV genes associated with extended-spectrum beta-lactamase (ESBL) production; Soil samples were collected processed to isolate soil bacteria. Molecular detection was then conducted using...
Background Cardiovascular diseases, including ischemic heart disease, are the leading cause of premature death and disability worldwide. While traditional risk factors such as smoking, obesity, diabetes have been thoroughly investigated, non-traditional like high-altitude exposure remain underexplored. This study aims to examine incidence mortality rates disease over past decade in Ecuador, a country with diverse altitude profile spanning from 0 4,300 meters. Methods We conducted geographic...
Background: During the COVID-19 pandemic, distinct population subsets, including pregnant women, have been differentially affected. While over 90% of COVID-19-infected women experience a benign course, subset demonstrates marked clinical exacerbation. Symptomatic individuals, in particular, present heightened risk severe disease comparison to their non-pregnant counterparts. Objective: The objective this study is systematically evaluate epidemiological characteristics assess related maternal...
