Falls are a frequent event among older adults that can cause wounds, disability, psychological disorders, and premature death. Although the large number of existing studies on issue, few have been conducted in middle- low-income countries. The objective present study is to identify sociodemographic, medical, functional performance factors associated with occasional recurrent falls Mexican dwelling community. Cross-sectional analysis 9 598 ≥60 years old who participated fourth round (2015)...
Background Mexico is one of the countries with highest number deaths from COVID-19 pandemic. In spite this high mortality, in confirmed cases and diagnostic tests per million population are lower than for other comparable countries, which leads to uncertainty about actual extent City, healthcare workers represent an important fraction individuals SARS-CoV-2 infection. We performed a cross-sectional study whose objective was estimate frequency antibodies identify associated factors at large...
Abstract Electrical burn injuries are one of the most severe forms trauma. This study aims to investigate infection complications in electrical patients a referral hospital Mexico City. A longitudinal retrospective was conducted, involving admitted from April 2011 December 2016. Demographic and clinical data including type electric burns, complications, mortality sought. Data were collected at admission daily until discharge. Number infections microorganism isolations Risk factors for death...
The inflammatory response in gout disease is induced by the activation of NLR family pyrin domain-containing 3 (NLPR3) signaling pathway mediated IL-1β release.The objective study was to determine association between single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) within NLRP3 inflammasome genes and susceptibility.Mexican patients with from National Rehabilitation Institute General Hospital Mexico were enrolled. A healthy control group also included. We analyzed frequency allelic distribution eight...
<h3>Background</h3> Interstitial lung disease (ILD) is a common complication of Systemic Sclerosis (SSc) and frequently may be cause death patients. High resolution computed tomography (HRCT) the reference imaging tool for assessment ILD; however, its use limited both ionising radiation costs. In this way, pulmonary ultrasound (US) revealing interesting potential in ILD. <h3>Objectives</h3> To determine validity US detecting subclinical ILD SSc to predictive value progression....
Osteoporosis is characterized by reduced bone mineral density (BMD) and quality, increasing the risk of fractures. A large number genes involved in metabolism have been implicated genesis osteoporosis; these include RANK RANKL. Polymorphisms osteoporosis. The aim this study was to determine association rs3018362 RANKL rs12585014 polymorphisms with Four hundred Mexican women aged 40 years old or above were genotyped real-time PCR several demographic factors explored. GA AA genotypes...
Introduction Spinal trauma can be devastating and the ultimate solution is prevention of delayed or missed diagnosis treatment. Our purpose was to develop a reliable prediction rule assess patient's identify risk factors for spinal injuries that could guide screening timely fracture Patients Methods Retrospective study from January 2005 March 2014 patients with trauma-associated fractures who were admitted into surgery service referral institute. Two clinical rules based on set demographic...
Objective To compare the assessment of entheses in subjects with spondyloarthritis (SpA) patients gout by Madrid Sonographic Enthesis Index (MASEI). Method This cross-sectional study includes videos evaluated ultrasound (US) 30 SpA diagnosed according to ASAS criteria and established presence monosodium urate crystals. Entheses were for MASEI 2 Institutes located two different countries. Demographic clinical data registered. Total score, MASEI-inflammatory, MASEI-chronic damage analyzed....
<h3>Background</h3> Interstitial lung disease (ILD) is an extra-articular complication in rheumatoid arthritis (RA) that may lead to severe impairment of respiratory function. High-resolution computer tomography (HRCT) the most common imaging technique used assessment ILD. However, costs and ionising radiation limit its use routine practice. Recently, US generating interesting data support validity ILD rheumatic diseases<sup>1,2</sup>. <h3>Objectives</h3> To investigate correlation between...
ABSTRACT In spite of high mortality from COVID-19, in Mexico the number confirmed cases and diagnostic tests per million population are lower than for other comparable countries, which leads to uncertainty about actual extent pandemic. City, healthcare workers represent an important fraction individuals with SARS-CoV-2 infection. This work aims estimate frequency antibodies identify associated factors at a large hospital City. We conducted serological survey non-COVID national referral...
