ABSTRACT Human Immunodeficiency Virus (HIV), T Lymphotropic (HTLV), Hepatitis B (HBV) and C (HCV) coinfection may lead to disease progression or worsen its clinical presentation. Viral coinfections screening during blood donation is critical. To identify risk factors for among donors, we assessed the donations at Fundação de Hematologia e Hemoterapia da Bahia, from 2008 2017. We compared serological/molecular evidence of single infection versus two more viral blood‐borne infections—BBI). A...
Background: Chronic kidney disease (CKD) elevates the risk of cardiovascular and overall mortality among maintenance hemodialysis (MHD) patients. Although initially designed to predict stroke in cases atrial fibrillation, CHA2DS2-VASc score demonstrates predictive utility, spanning several conditions. This study seeks evaluate if is effective predicting all-cause for MHD Methods: The data are part "Prospective Study Prognosis Patients on Hemodialysis" (PROHEMO) developed Salvador, BA,...
ABSTRACT Introduction: burns represent a pivotal component of trauma in Brazil, accounting for 2 million incidents and 2,500 deaths annually. Self-intentional are associated with worse prognosis, larger burned surface area, higher infection rates, death. The lack studies on the issue self-immolation raises epidemiological questions regarding Brazilian victims. This study aimed to investigate profile burn events self-injurious behavior among Methods: this systematic review was performed...
Chagas disease (CD) affects 5.7-7.0 million individuals worldwide, and its prevalence reached 25.1% in the state of Bahia, Brazil. There is an association between CD, socioeconomic status population, risk re-emergence due to non-vectorial transmission, such as blood transfusion. This study determined seroprevalence T. cruzi infection among donors located northeastern Brazil, their epidemiological profile during a 10-year period.We performed descriptive cross-sectional involving database...
Background: Short period from diagnosis to breast cancer (BC) treatment initiation remains challenging for the public health system in Brazil, which may have been further affected by coronavirus disease-2019 (COVID-19) pandemic.This study assessed BC diagnosis-to-treatment intervals (DTi) Brazil and possible effects of COVID-19 outbreak on delays. Methods:The Painel de Monitoramento Tratamento Oncológico database was queried obtain number Brazilian patients with a confirmed initiating pre-...
Despite the benefits of HAART, HIV-infected patients are increasingly affected by different malignancies. We compared a 5-year-period survival time and prognostic factors for HIV-1-infected individuals diagnosed with non-Hodgkin lymphomas (NHL) in nested case-control study, non-HIV-infected Salvador, Brazil. Survival were to HIV-negative patients. 31 cases (versus 63 controls) had significantly more advanced NHL at diagnosis lower mean CD4 count (26 cells/mm(3)) than controls. Mean overall...
Although blood transfusion is an important therapeutic resource, transfusion-transmitted infections (TTIs) are still a cause for concern. Measures to mitigate this risk involve improvement of donor screening criteria and improvements in laboratory tests, especially the use nucleic acid test (NAT). In retrospective study we evaluated HIV, HTLV, HCV HBV infection rates donors Hematology Hemotherapy Foundation Bahia (Hemoba), Brazil, through serological NAT results characteristics donors. From...
Diffuse large B-cell lymphoma represents approximately 30%-40% of all diagnoses non-Hodgkin's Lymphoma and may represent up to 80% lymphomas that arise in the palatine tonsils. Several studies have attempted correlate clinical, laboratorial, tissue factors with prognosis lymphomas, such as International Prognostic Index, expression some proteins, lymphocyte count at time diagnosis, well Epstein-Barr virus (EBV) infection worse prognoses. Patients tonsil DLBCL, from Salvador, Bahia, Brazil,...
RESUMO Introdução: Queimaduras representam um componente fundamental do trauma no Brasil, sendo responsáveis por 2 milhões de incidentes e 2.500 mortes anualmente. autointencionais estão associadas a pior prognóstico, maior superfície corporal queimada, maiores taxas infecção morte. A falta estudos sobre problemática da autoimolação levanta questões epidemiológicas em relação às vítimas brasileiras. O estudo se objetivou investigar o perfil das queimaduras associados ao comportamento...

Aims: To produce a systematic review with meta-analysis on the hematological manifestations of COVID-19, comparing changes among clinical severity groups.
 Study Design: We conducted meta-analyses.
 Methodology: A was carried out based PRISMA 2020 protocol in Medline/Pubmed, Embase, LILACS and SciElo databases. standardized mean difference calculated to assess differences between groups, confidence interval 95%. Heterogeneity using Chi-square test I2 test. Significant heterogeneity...
Breast cancer is the most common female cancer, and Screening mammography a current strategy that reduces mortality among women. In Brazil, more recent data show an increasing number of mammograms but unequal geographic access to exam nationwide. surgery essential oncological treatment management breast cancer. Conservative techniques have been established as effective option; however, mastectomies are still widely used in Brazil. The increase screening programs nationwide should...
Background: Bleeding is frequent in cardiac and vascular surgery (CVS) having a greater need for transfusion. Studies have observed an increase complications transfused patients, this context the use of liberal strategy (LS) was questioned, restrictive (RS) gained space scientific environment. However, effects these strategies remain uncertain. This study aimed to verify if there association between transfusion occurrence postoperative adult patients undergoing CVS.
