Community-acquired pneumonia (CAP) is a major cause of morbidity and mortality in adults even developed countries. Several lifestyle factors comorbidities have been linked to an increased risk, although their prevalence has not well documented the primary care setting. The aim this study assess incidence, risk factor comorbid conditions distribution CAP Spain.Retrospective observational (>18 years-old) with diagnosed attended at Spain between 2009 2013, using Computerized Database for...

Introduction Information about community-acquired pneumonia (CAP) risk in primary care is limited. We assess different lifestyle and comorbid conditions as factors (RF) for CAP adults care. Methods A retrospective-observational-controlled study was designed. Adult cases diagnosed at Spain between 2009 2013 were retrieved using the National Surveillance System of Primary Care Data (BiFAP). Age-matched sex-matched controls selected by incidence density sampling (ratio 2:1). Associations are...

Chronic skin lesions constitute a clinical diagnostic challenge. We report the case of patient whose facial lesion was histopathologically compatible with squamous cell carcinoma and hence programmed for Mohs surgery. However, review epidemiological history led to laboratory diagnosis cutaneous leishmaniasis, treatment miltefosine, complete resolution lesion.
