Abstract Coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) was considered a major public health burden worldwide. Multiple studies have shown that susceptibility to severe infections and the development of long-term symptoms is significantly influenced by viral host factors. These findings highlighted potential genetic markers identify high-risk individuals develop target interventions reduce morbimortality. Despite its importance, factors remain largely understudied in Latin-American populations. Using...
Genetic and non-genetic factors are responsible for the high interindividual variability in response to SARS-CoV-2. Although numerous genetic polymorphisms have been identified as risk severe COVID-19, these remain understudied Latin-American populations. This study evaluated association of three polymorphisms:
MS patients are at increased risk for tuberculosis reactivation due to immunosuppressive therapies. Prevalence of latent in from our country is unknown. To assess the prevalence and determinants infection (LTBI) Colombia. Multicentric, cross-sectional, retrospective study involving confirmed patients. LTBI was defined as a positive tuberculin skin test asymptomatic with normal chest imaging. The (95 %CI) estimated compared general one-sample proportion test. Determinants were analysed using...
