Intestinal bacteria may influence lung homeostasis via the gut-lung axis. We conducted a single-center, quadruple-blinded, randomized trial in adult symptomatic Coronavirus Disease 2019 (Covid19) outpatients. Subjects were allocated 1:1 to probiotic formula (strains Lactiplantibacillus plantarum KABP022, KABP023, and KAPB033, plus strain Pediococcus acidilactici KABP021, totaling 2 × 109 colony-forming units (CFU)) or placebo, for 30 days. Co-primary endpoints included: i) proportion of...
Mexico City children are chronically exposed to significant concentrations of air pollutants and exhibit chronic respiratory-tract inflammation. Epidemiological, controlled human exposures, laboratory-based animal models, in vitro/in vivo studies have shown that inflammatory, endothelial dysfunction, damage mediators upregulated upon exposure particulate matter (PM). Endothelial dysfunction is a critical event cardiovascular disease. The focus this work was investigate whether ambient...
To evaluate whether daily administration of Lactobacillus reuteri DSM 17938 reduces the frequency and duration diarrheal episodes other health outcomes in day school children Mexico.Healthy (born at term, aged 6-36 months) attending care centers were enrolled this randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled trial. They received L (dose 10(8) colony-forming unit; n = 168) or identical placebo (n by mouth, for 3 months, after which they followed-up a further months without...
The recent advisory issued by the United States Food and Drug Administration, cautioning against routine administration of probiotics in preterm neonates, has sparked a lively debate within scientific community. This commentary presents perspective from members Special Interest Group on Gut Microbiota Modifications European Society for Paediatric Gastroenterology, Hepatology Nutrition (ESPGHAN) other authors who contributed to ESPGHAN position paper infants, as well representatives...
Necrotizing fasciitis (NF) is a severe, life-threatening soft tissue infection. General features and risk factors for fatal outcome in children are not well known.To characterize the of NF outcome.Retrospective, comparative, observational, longitudinal trial.Dermatology department tertiary care pediatric hospital.All patients with clinical and/or histopathological diagnosis seen from January 1, 1971, through December 31, 2000.Incidence, age, sex, number location lesions, preexisting...
ABSTRACT Objective To characterize the clinical features, response to therapy, evolution and prognosis of cutaneous mastocytosis in children. Background Mastocytosis children, instead being induced by a potentially oncogenic c‐kit mutation is probably clonal disease with benign prognosis. Methods The clinicopathological treatment were analysed 71 children mastocytosis. Results There 53 (75%) cases urticaria pigmentosa, 12 (17%) mastocytoma, six (8%) diffuse In 92% onset was first year life....
Background. Skin diseases among pediatric patients differ from those in adults. Epidemiological studies are scarce, and performed Mexican population date back thirty years. It is likely that these might have changed their frequency. Material Methods. Retrospective study first-time referred to a dermatology service between January 1994 December 2003. Demographics diagnosis were recorded compared with the results of previous same institution. Results. We included 5250 (52.55% female, 47.47%...
Abstract Giardiasis, the most prevalent intestinal parasitosis in humans, is caused by Giardia lamblia . Current drug therapies have adverse effects on host, and resistant strains against these drugs been reported, demonstrating an urgent need to design more specific antigiardiasic drugs. ATP production G. depends mainly glycolysis; therefore, all enzymes of this pathway proposed as potential targets. We previously demonstrated that glycolytic enzyme triosephosphate isomerase from (GlTIM),...
Giardiasis is highly prevalent in the developing world, and treatment failures with standard drugs are common. This work deals proposal of omeprazole as a novel antigiardial drug, focusing on giardial glycolytic enzyme used to follow cytotoxic effect at molecular level. We recombinant technology inactivation demonstrate capacity inactivate triosephosphate isomerase, no adverse effects its human counterpart. To establish specific target enzyme, we single mutants every cysteine residue...
Background: The importance of prebiotics consumption is increasing all over the world due to their beneficial effects on health. Production better from endemic plants raises possibilities enhance nutritional in vulnerable population groups. Fructans derived Agave Plant have demonstrated safety and efficacy as animal models. Recently, humans two fructans obtained tequilana (Metlin® Metlos®) was demonstrated. Methods: This study aimed demonstrate Metlin® Metlos® newborns a randomized, double...
Synbiotics are a mixture comprising of live microorganisms and substrate(s) selectively utilized by host that confers health benefit on the host. There is an increasing number studies investigating their role in different diseases disorders.The purpose this article to provide recommendations for use synbiotics management pediatric gastrointestinal disorders. The developed ESPGHAN Special Interest Group Gut Microbiota Modifications.From existing literature databases, we searched appraised all...
OBJECTIVES: Across guidelines, protein dosing for critically ill patients with obesity varies considerably. The objective of this analysis was to evaluate whether population would benefit from higher doses protein. DESIGN: A post hoc subgroup the effect in high nutritional risk (EFFORT Protein): an international, multicenter, pragmatic, registry-based randomized trial. SETTING: Eighty-five adult ICUs across 16 countries. PATIENTS: Patients defined as a body mass index (BMI) greater than or...
Background Irritable bowel syndrome (IBS) is a common functional gastrointestinal disorder in adults. Systematic reviews with meta-analyses have demonstrated the efficacy and safety of probiotics improving symptoms IBS. Aim The aim study was to demonstrate Limosilactobacillus reuteri ( L. ) DSM 17938 combined ATCC PTA 6475 regarding associated IBS Methods A randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled clinical trial conducted 140 adults aged 18 years 65 diagnosis (based on Rome IV criteria)....
Among 27 pediatric patients with a clinicopathologic diagnosis of discoid lupus erythematosus (DLE), 15 had localized cutaneous lesions and 12 disseminated lesions. During mean follow-up period 36 months, seven (26%) developed systemic (SLE). Four these were less than 10 years age. No correlation was found between evolution to SLE. Three four positive family history for rheumatoid disease SLE (p < 0.05). Hyperpigmentation significantly more frequent 0.04) in children There female...
