Dexamethasone can reduce mortality in hospitalised COVID-19 patients needing oxygen and ventilation by 18% 36%, respectively. Here, we estimate the potential number of lives saved life years gained if this treatment were to be rolled out UK globally, as well cost-effectiveness implementing intervention. Assuming SARS-CoV-2 exposure levels 5% 15%, that, for UK, approximately 12,000 (4,250 - 27,000) could between July December 2020. that dexamethasone has a similar effect size settings where...
In this study we estimated the prevalence, incidence, and mortality of myasthenia gravis (MG) in northern Portugal characterized clinical features patients identified.We used 2 data sources: records from hospitals pyridostigmine prescription registers.On December 31, 2013, a point prevalence 111.7 per million population. The highest was observed group >65 years age, especially men (288.1 million). During an incidence rate 6.3 year. Among women, 15-49-year age group; men, increased with up to...
The emergence of new communication technologies, such as computers and smartphones, has decisively contributed to the adoption ergonomically incorrect postural behaviors. Forward Head Posture (FHP) stands out, which is sometimes associated with onset more serious problems, neck pain. This paper presents a brief overview most recurrent monitoring methods for FHP assessment, well issues current electronics used in wearable devices development e-textiles. Additionally, techniques integrating...
<b><i>Introduction:</i></b> Although frequently assumed to be age-related changes, vascular white matter lesions (WML) are sometimes found in young adults. Etiology is usually attributed sporadic small vessel disease; nevertheless, genetic disorders may also implicated. We aimed characterize the population of adults with WML Neurology outpatient clinics. <b><i>Methods:</i></b> Neurologists from 12 Portuguese hospitals were invited include...
Femoral neck stress fractures are infrequent. They more prevalent among athletes, with women being at a higher risk. A 29-year-old female amateur CrossFit athlete complained of right-sided groin pain after high intensity training. An X-ray showed no signs acute lesions, but further CT scan and MRI revealed compression-type femoral fracture. The patient underwent conservative treatment, restricting full weight-bearing during six weeks. She became asymptomatic four months returned to sports...
Abstract Background Lewis-Sumner Syndrome (LSS) is considered an asymmetric sensory-motor variant of Chronic Inflammatory Demyelinating Polyneuropathy (CIDP), mostly affecting the limbs distally, with electrophysiological evidence multifocal motor conduction blocks. Cranial nerve involvement present in a minority. Various well-known infectious agents, directly or via host’s immune responses, may trigger exacerbate acute and chronic peripheral neuropathies, which manifest clinically through...
Introdução: A vigilância sindrómica permite a identificação precoce de alterações no padrão morbilidade da população. Este estudo tem como objetivo avaliar utilidade indicadores relativos cuidados saúde primários e hospitalares, na COVID-19.Material Métodos: Foi realizada uma análise séries temporais utilizando taxa incidência semanal COVID-19 em Portugal Continental, entre as semanas 14/2020 (30 março 05 abril) 25/2020 (15 21 junho), seis indicadores: 1) consultas por COVID-19; 2) número...
Chronic inflammatory demyelinating polyradiculoneuropathy (CIDP) is an autoimmune neuropathy characterised by insidious onset, progressive course, proximal and distal symmetrical weakness, sensory impairment. It may affect patients of any age with varying degrees clinical involvement response rates to existing treatments. Sjögren syndrome (SS) a systemic disorder that primarily affects the exocrine glands causing sicca syndrome. peripheral nervous system, usually painful small fibre or pure...
Congenital myasthenic syndromes (CMS) are genetic conditions characterized by dysfunction of the neuromuscular transmission. There is limited data on pregnancy safety in myasthenia gravis for both mother and child. Retrospective study pregnant CMS patients who were followed two tertiary hospitals their clinical was analyzed. Sixteen pregnancies from 9 with history included: one had CHAT, DOK-7 six CHRNE mutations. Previous reports showed that can exacerbate manifestations CMS. no specific...
