Abstract Comorbid conditions appear to be common among individuals hospitalised with coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) but estimates of prevalence vary and little is known about the prior medication use patients. Here, we describe characteristics adults COVID-19 compare them influenza We include 34,128 (US: 8362, South Korea: 7341, Spain: 18,425) patients, summarising between 4811 11,643 unique aggregate characteristics. patients have been majority male in US Spain, predominantly female...
Abstract Background In this study we phenotyped individuals hospitalised with coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) in depth, summarising entire medical histories, including medications, as captured routinely collected data drawn from databases across three continents. We then compared COVID-19 to those previously influenza. Methods report demographics, recorded conditions and medication use of patients the US (Columbia University Irving Medical Center [CUIMC], Premier Healthcare Database...
Since all clinical trials conducted during the development of anti-COVID-19 vaccines have adopted among exclusion criteria presence immunodepression or immunomodulating therapy, to date, effects vaccination against new coronavirus 2 in people under such conditions yet be clearly defined. The primary objective study is assess safety treatment with biotechnological drugs patients suffering from moderate–severe psoriasis and subjected prophylactic SARS-Cov-2. Additionally, secondary research...
To avoid exposure to SARS-COV-2, healthcare professionals must use personal protective equipment (PPE). Their has been related a series of adverse effects; the most frequent events were headache, dyspnoea, and pressure injuries. Skin effects are very common, including contact dermatitis, itching, erythema, acneiform eruptions. The objective this study is evaluate skin problems caused by protection (PPE) in health care workers (HCWs) individuate eventual risk factors. From May June 2020...
Abstract: Cancer patients are experiencing an increase in overall survival as a consequence of earlier diagnosis and newer effective anticancer therapies. However, cancer survivors often face long-term consequences from their original sequelae treatment. Maintaining patients' quality life is paramount importance this can be accomplished by multidisciplinary treatment approach, including aesthetic treatments to improve body image positively impact life. In perspective, we will discuss the...
Transcatheter atrial fibrillation (AF) ablation is still carried out with continuous invasive radial arterial blood pressure (IBP) monitoring in many centers. Continuous noninvasive (CNBP) measurement using the volume-clamp method a alternative used ICU. No data on CNBP reliability are available electrophysiology lab during AF ablation, where rhythm variations common. The objective of present study was to compare measured ClearSight device (Edwards Lifesciences, Irvine, CA, USA) artery as...
Hidradenitis suppurativa (HS) is a chronic inflammatory skin disease associated with elevated prevalence of comorbidities, especially metabolic and cardiovascular diseases. We used tool called Heart Rate Variability (HRV) in order to assess the correlation between HS alterations sympathetic-vagal equilibrium autonomic regulation system. found increased sympathetic activity, higher risk disease. HS, according our results, an independent factor.
This retrospective single-center study analyzes the efficacy and safety of isotretinoin for treatment moderate to severe acne in real-life clinical practice, particularly with regard severity, cumulative dosage, patients’ gender. The results suggest opportunity an early systemic patients affected by emphasize importance appropriate dose adjustment order minimize adverse events.
Psoriasis is a multifactorial chronic inflammatory skin disease characterized by erythemato-squamous lesions with relapsing course. The desease clinical activity (PASI) and the patient's quality of life (DLQI) are main elements to assess for setting up correct therapeutic management.The aim study was evaluate management patient moderate-severe psoriasis in therapy biological drugs establish difference achievement PASI 90 DLQI 0-1 between group patients treated only receiving biologic...

The outbreak of coronavirus disease-2019 (COVID-19) is a public health crisis global proportion. In psoriatic patients treated with biologic agents, evidence not yet available on susceptibility to infection the novel SARS-CoV-2 coronavirus, and data about perception COVID-19 its impact these are lacking. aim this observational, spontaneous study was evaluation anti measures in "fragile population" such as chronic inflammatory disease. Thus, we evaluated perceived risk quality life moderate...

Current literature suggests that anemia at baseline is an important adverse prognostic factor for lymphoma-related outcomes. We evaluated the prevalence, risk factors, and value of in patients with intermediate-grade non-Hodgkin's lymphoma (IGNHL) treated a community-based practice.The retrospective sample included 591 who had IGNHL diagnosed between 1993 1999 were subsequently CHOP chemotherapy. Anemia was defined as hemoglobin (Hb) < 12 g/dL.Anemia present 193 546 (35.3%). Baseline...
