Fabry disease (FD) is characterized by left ventricular hypertrophy (LVH). Conventional echocardiography not sensitive enough to perform the preclinical diagnosis To assess whether longitudinal myocardial strain of ventricle (LV), using speckle tracking, useful detect early involvement in FD. Forty-four patients with FD who were diagnosed genetic testing prospectively included and compared a sex-matched control group. They divided into three groups: 22 LVH (Group I), without II), healthy...
Tuberculosis (TB) is an infectious disease closely intertwined with stigma, discrimination, and the social determinants of health. Communities people affected by TB are experts in their care pathways, but field continues to fall short meaningfully engaging communities research. This a missed opportunity improve quality, relevance, person-centeredness, positive impact, sustainability research outputs. We acknowledge important progress that has been made date regarding community engagement TB,...
BackgroundThe COVID-19 pandemic has significantly disrupted tuberculosis (TB) programs, making it urgent to focus TB elimination efforts on key populations. People experiencing incarceration are at high risk for TB, however, how COVID-19-related disruptions have impacted incarcerated populations with is unknown.MethodsUsing Peruvian National Program data from Jan 2018 Dec 2021, an interrupted time series of drug-susceptible (DS) case notifications pre- and during was conducted (cut-off date:...
Fabry disease (FD) is an X-linked lysosomal storage disease, with multisystemic glycosphingolipids deposits. Neuro-otological involvement leading to hearing loss and vestibular dysfunctions has been described, but there limited information about the frequency, site of lesion, or relationship peripheral neuropathy. The aim was evaluate presence auditory symptoms, assess neurophysiological VIII cranial nerve, correlating these findings clinical features We studied 36 patients FD a complete...
Serological assays have been used in seroprevalence studies to inform the dynamics of COVID-19. Lateral flow immunoassay (LFIA) tests are a very practical technology use for this objective; however, one their challenges may be variable diagnostic performance. Given numerous available LFIA tests, evaluation accuracy is critical before real-world implementation. We performed retrospective study independently determine 4 different antibody-detection tests: Now Check (Bionote), CareStart (Access...
Objectives The COVID-19 pandemic caused a global shortage of nasopharyngeal (NP) swabs, required for RT-PCR testing. Canadian manufacturers were contacted to share NP swab innovations. primary objective was determine whether novel test swabs comparable commercially available regarding user characteristics, ability collect specimen, and diagnostic performance using Methods Participants randomized by (test/control) nostril (left/right). A calculated positive percent agreement ≥90% considered...
