Abstract Background Advanced age is a well-known risk factor for poor prognosis in COVID-19. However, few studies have specifically focused on very old inpatients with This study aims to describe the clinical characteristics of COVID-19 and identify factors in-hospital mortality at admission. Methods We conducted nationwide, multicenter, retrospective, observational patients ≥ 80 years hospitalized 150 Spanish hospitals (SEMI-COVID-19) Registry (March 1–May 29, 2020). The primary outcome was...
Background The impact of glucagon-like peptide-1 receptor agonists on patients with heart failure has not been fully described. Our main objective was to evaluate the safety and clinical glycemic efficacy once-weekly semaglutide in obese type 2 diabetes failure. Methods In this observational, retrospective, real-world study, we enrolled outpatients diabetes, obesity, who started were followed-up at 3, 6, 12 months. Results A total 136 included. From baseline months, there a significant...
Abstract Background There is little evidence on the use of sodium−glucose cotransporter 2 (SGLT2) inhibitors in older patients with heart failure. This work analyzed clinical efficacy and safety empagliflozin continuation very old type diabetes hospitalized for acute decompensated Methods We conducted a real‐world observational study between September 2015 June 2021. Patients ≥80 years were grouped by antihyperglycemic regimen: (1) preadmission combined basal insulin regimen (2) conventional...
Obesity, diabetes mellitus, and cardiovascular risk are real challenges in systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) clinical practice research. The evidence of the burden these health problems SLE patients is determined by methods used to assess them. Therefore, aim this scoping review map current approaches assessing obesity, identify existing knowledge gaps field. This rapid was conducted according Joanna Briggs Institute methodology identified 274 articles, which 73 were included. Most studies...
Background: The 6-Min Walking Test (6MWT) has been proposed to assess functional aerobic capacity in patients with heart failure, but many older adults failure cannot complete it. adequacy of the 5-repetition Sit-To-Stand (5-STS), a simpler test than 6MWT, not evaluated. Objectives: This study aimed usefulness 5-STS estimating maximal oxygen uptake (VO2 peak) preserved ejection fraction (HFpEF). Methods: A cross-sectional was carried out. Patients 70 years and HFpEF were included. bivariant...
Old age is one of the most important risk factors for severe COVID-19. Few studies have analyzed changes in clinical characteristics and prognosis COVID-19 among older adults before availability vaccines. This work analyzes differences features mortality unvaccinated very old during first successive waves Spain.
Sarcopenia is an important comorbidity in patients with heart failure preserved ejection fraction (HFpEF). The ultrasound (US) assessment has all the advantages of being used primary care to assess muscle quantity and quality. Some biomarkers could be indicative mass loss.To describe quantitative qualitative characteristics quadriceps femoris assessed by US older adults HFpEF relationship blood urinary biomarkers, polypharmacy comorbidities outcomes HFpEF.A cross-sectional study was...
SARS-CoV-2 is a highly contagious virus, and despite professionals' best efforts, nosocomial COVID-19 (NC) infections have been reported. This work aimed to describe differences in symptoms outcomes between patients with NC community-acquired (CAC) identify risk factors for severe among patients.This nationwide, retrospective, multicenter, observational study that analyzed hospitalized confirmed 150 Spanish hospitals (SEMI-COVID-19 Registry) from March 1, 2020, April 30, 2021. was defined as...
This paper aims to assess kinematic parameters related functional capacity, fatigue, and breathlessness during the 6-min walk test (6MWT) in patients with heart failure preserved ejection fraction (HFpEF).
Older patients are more likely to have cognitive dysfunction, and a great proportion of undergone surgical procedures older adults. Postoperative dysfunction (POCD) has been shown as consistent complication after major such heart surgery.
Abstract Heart failure (HF)-related factors potentially lead to sarcopenia. Ultrasound (US) assessment has all the advantages of being used in clinical practice assess muscle architecture. This study aimed relationship between quadriceps femoris (QF) architecture with gender, age, body mass index (BMI), strength and physical function older adults HF preserved ejection fraction (HFpEF) as well difference these relationships two genders. Patients 70 years HFpEF were included. The age BMI...

Older patients are more likely to have cognitive dysfunction, and a great proportion of undergone surgical procedures older adults. Postoperative dysfunction (POCD) has been shown as consistent complication after major such heart surgery.To determine the presence long-term POCD in ≥65-year-old undergoing coronary artery bypass grafting aortic valve replacement, establish related risk factors.We prospectively sequentially included 44 with disease stenosis scheduled for surgery. Follow-up all...
There is little evidence on the use of sodium−glucose cotransporter 2 inhibitors in hospitalised patients. This work aims to analyse glycaemic and clinical efficacy safety empagliflozin continuation patients with type diabetes for acute decompensated heart failure. real-world observational study includes treated using our in-hospital antihyperglycaemic regimens (basal-bolus insulin vs. empagliflozin-basal insulin) between 2017 2020. A propensity matching analysis was used match a patient one...
Older patients managed with intensive antidiabetic therapy are more likely to be harmed. Our study's primary endpoint was analyze the safety and efficacy of linagliptin in combination basal insulin versus basal-bolus 75 years age or older hospitalized medicine surgery departments real-world clinical practice.We retrospectively enrolled non-critically ≥75 type 2 diabetes admitted non-cardiac admission glycated hemoglobin <8%, blood glucose <240 mg/dL, without at-home injectable therapies our...
(1) Background: This work aims to analyze clinical outcomes according ethnic groups in patients hospitalized for COVID-19 Spain. (2) Methods: nationwide, retrospective, multicenter, observational study analyzed with confirmed 150 Spanish hospitals (SEMI-COVID-19 Registry) from 1 March 2020 31 December 2021. Clinical were assessed ethnicity (Latin Americans, Sub-Saharan Africans, Asians, North Europeans). The in-hospital mortality (IHM), intensive care unit (ICU) admission, and the use of...
Our objective was to compare clinical protocols for the treatment of novel coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) among different hospitals in Andalusia, Spain. We reviewed current COVID-19 15 largest Andalusia. Antiviral treatment, empirical antibacterial agents, adjunctive therapies, anticoagulant supportive care, hospital organization, and discharge recommendations were analyzed. All included latest updates as July 2020. Hydroxychloroquine monotherapy most frequent antiviral drug recommended...
It is a challenge to manage and assess heart failure with preserved left ventricular ejection fraction (HFpEF) patients. Six-Minute Walk Test (6MWT) used in this clinical population as functional test. The objective of the study was gait kinematic parameters HFpEF patients during 6MWT an inertial sensor discriminate according their performance 6MWT: (1) walk more or less than 300 m, (2) finish stop test, (3) women men (4) fallen did not fall last year. A cross-sectional performed older 70...
Muscle wasting is pronounced in patients with heart failure preserved ejection fraction (HFpEF). The quadriceps femoris echotexture biomarkers assessed by ultrasound (US) have not been studied these patients.
