Abstract Background The risk of Cushing syndrome (CS) patients experiencing a thrombotic event (TE) is significantly higher (odds ratio; OR 18%) than that the general population. However, there are currently no anticoagulation guidelines. Methods A retrospective, single-center, longitudinal study undergoing all types treatment—surgical (pituitary, unilateral, and bilateral adrenalectomy) medical treatment—was undertaken. TEs were recorded at any point up until last patient follow-up;...
The objective of this study was to establish recommendations for thromboprophylaxis in patients with endogenous Cushing's syndrome (CS), addressing the elevated risk venous thromboembolism (VTE) associated hypercortisolism. A Delphi method used, consisting 4 rounds voting and subsequent discussions. panel included 18 international experts from 11 countries continents. Consensus defined as ≥75% agreement among participants. Recommendations were structured into following categories:...
Abstract Basic and superior reasoning skills are woven into the clinical process just as they used to solve any problem. As is central competence of medical education, development these should occur throughout undergraduate curriculum. The authors describe here a method teaching in context during human anatomy course.

Abstract Purpose It has been estimated that medication errors (ME) are responsible for 7000 deaths each year. Some studies show electronic prescribing systems have achieved health benefits and patient safety, resulting in a saving of resources. Other suggest they may increase adverse events. Objective The objective this study was to compare between paper‐based prescription detected during pharmacovigilance. Methods This an observational, cross‐sectional comparative 600 randomized medical...
Background: Dopamine agonists (DA) are the first line therapy for prolactinoma and symptomatic hyperprolactinemia treatment; use as an adjuvant treatment Acromegaly Cushing's disease is rare. Some patients develop de novo psychiatric symptoms or have exacerbation of pre-existing conditions during DA therapy. A practical, clinically sensitive depression impulse control disorders (ICD; particularly hypersexuality gambling disorders) detection tool important identifying at risk patients. The...
Summary Objective To evaluate the quality of life (QoL) in patients with pituitary adenomas comparison healthy Mexican population QoL scores. Design & Measurements Cross‐sectional study using short form 36 questionnaire ( SF ‐36) 175 grouped by adenoma subtype and disease activity, compared them normative Patients A total 44 non‐functioning NFPA ), 48 acromegaly, 53 prolactinomas 30 Cushing CD ) were enrolled this study. Results Mental physical components scores MCS PCS ‐36 lower active...
Few studies have evaluated resilience in an academic environment as it relates to success or failure. This work sought assess regular and remedial students of gross anatomy during the first second semesters medical school correlate this personal trait with performance. Two groups were compared: group included first-year course, who did not pass course so enrolled course. Both completed anonymous surveys designed gather demographic data establish scores on Connor-Davidson scale, which...
Cushing's disease (CD) is a life-threating disease, with increased mortality in comparison the general population.This study aimed to evaluate standardized ratios (SMRs) CD patients. We also analyzed independent risk factors related mortality.We conducted longitudinal cohort 3rd level specialty center, from 1979 2018, patients CD.From 1375 cases pathology diagnosis of pituitary adenoma, 191 had confirmed (14%). A total 172 completed follow-up, mean age at 33 ± 11 years, female predominance...
Extraocular muscles are important references in strabismus surgery and placement of intraorbital devices.We analyzed extraocular morphometry possible anatomical variances 20 orbits.We report the length, width, points insertion muscles.No variations width were found.With regard to rectus muscles, it was found that superior lateral longest difference between inferior is greater than medial point has a variable morphology.The oblique muscle smaller caliber oblique, as consistent with previous...
Hyperprolactinemia is a very frequent cause for evaluation in daily medical practice, but only some cases with significant and persistent hyperprolactinemia are related to lactotroph adenoma.We present recommendations the diagnostic approach management of hyperprolactinemia/prolactinoma, emphasizing clinical scenarios were decision may be difficult or special situations such as pregnancy pediatric age.This paper does not pretend considerate guideline consensus, nonetheless, Sociedad Mexicana...
Ectopic ACTH-secretion causing Cushing's syndrome is unusual and its diagnosis frequently challenging. The presence of high-molecular-weight precursors throughout pro-opiomelanocortin (POMC) translation by these tumors often not reported. We present the case a 49-year-old woman with three-month history proximal muscular weakness, skin pigmentation, weight loss. Upon initial evaluation, she had full moon face, hirsutism, buffalo hump. Laboratory workup showed hyperglycemia, hypokalemia...
