Abstract Background Point prevalence surveys (PPSs) on antibiotic use are useful for understanding different aspects related to prescription patterns in hospitals. Methods An adaptation of the WHO methodology a PPS was applied. Hospital wards were divided into medical (MED), surgical (SUR), ICUs, gynaecology and obstetrics (GO), high-risk (HR) mixed (MIX). A web application (RedCap©) through mobile device used data collection. Results Between December 2018 August 2019, 5444 patients 33...
While reviewing studies of interest that assess hygiene in the processing and distribution chicken meat our country, a widely consumed animal product, we have found concerning data are also countries with similar socioeconomic conditions.
Pathological studies have revealed that one of the main features encountered in pulmonary vasculature patients with hypertension is presence thrombotic lesions. Open pilot indicated aerosolized iloprost may beneficial effects hypertension. The on platelet function and plasma cyclic adenosine monophosphate (cAMP) were studied. Platelet aggregation cAMP measured at baseline, 30 min, 4 6 h after inhalation 15 µg 10 healthy volunteers. Maximal response to diphosphate (ADP) (2...

We report the case of a 38 year-old man living with well-controlled HIV on antiretroviral therapy who developed cerebellar symptoms and was admitted to hospital for management an intraventricular cryptococcoma. During his stay he contracted SARS CoV-2 infection within setting fatal outcome.
We conducted a retrospective cross-sectional study of adult hospitalized patients with confirmed tuberculous meningitis to determine the impact timing treatment initiation on mortality. The mortality was high and associated delay in treatment, older age, HIV infection, higher disease severity at admission.
To determine the point prevalence and characteristics of antibiotic use in different hospitalization areas Hospital Nacional Dos de Mayo.We carried out a 3-week cross-sectional study with census approach (using methodology from World Health Organization) to inpatients areas, regardless whether or not they were on an regimen.We identified 358 patients, mean age 49 (± 25.3) years, predominantly adults (88%). Antibiotics used 51.7% hospitalized patients; only 57.3% prescriptions followed...

AbstractIn this study, we assessed the potential value of free serum osteocalcin or bone gla protein (BGP), most abundant non collagenous matrix found in and dentin, to reflect changes turnover thoroughbred horses. Levels were analyzed samples 54 clinically normal animals divided into three groups (A, B, C) according age: 8, 16–18 24–36 months, order determine standard for young horses different age sex. Serum BGP was measured by an in-house developed double antibody radioimmunoassay using...

Yeast fungi of the genus Trichosporon spp. can colonize gastrointestinal tract in humans. In recent decades, pathogenic role asahii has been increasingly acknowledged especially setting neutropenic patients with hematological malignancies. However, non-neutropenic who are immunosuppressed for other reasons also at risk developing invasive forms this mycosis. We present case a 62-year-old male, history ulcerative colitis under immunosuppressive treatment and previous exposure to antibiotics...

Motor neuron disease (MND) have an incidence of 2 in 100 000 persons, resulting the death 1 every 500 people affected. The most common MND spectrum is amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS). We describe case ALS-like syndrome a HIV patient. This report presents 38 years old male from Peru with who after months combined antiretroviral treatment (cART) initiation was admitted to hospital for spastic paraplegia. On his first admission, rapid plasma reagent (RPR) positive and he treated...
ABSTRACT. Co-occurrence of paracoccidioidomycosis and strongyloidiasis in immunosuppressed patients, particularly those infected with human T-lymphotropic virus type 1/2, is infrequent. We describe the case a Peruvian farmer from central jungle 1/2 infection, 2 months illness characterized by respiratory gastrointestinal symptoms associated fever, weight loss, enlarged lymph nodes.
