Abstract Background Cefazolin is an alternative for the treatment of MSSA infections and first choice option surgical prophylaxis. The cefazolin inoculum effect (CzIE), increase in MIC at high bacterial inocula associated to therapeutic failures increased mortality deep-seated infections. prevalence CzIE among nasal colonizing from ICU patients currently unknown. aim this study was investigate recovered admitted ICUs Colombia. Methods We evaluated 33 isolates swabs 29 6 high-complexity...
ABSTRACT The cefazolin inoculum effect (CzIE) has been associated with poor clinical outcomes in patients methicillin-susceptible Staphylococcus aureus (MSSA) infections. We aimed to investigate the point prevalence of CzIE among nasal colonizing MSSA isolates from ICU a multicenter study Colombia (2019–2023). Patients underwent swabs assess for S. colonization on admission ICU, and some individuals had follow-up swabs. performed MIC by broth microdilution using standard high developed...
The coronavirus pandemic is a major public health crisis affecting global systems with dire socioeconomic consequences, especially in vulnerable regions such as Latin America (LATAM). There an urgent need for vaccine to help control contagion, reduce mortality and alleviate social costs. In this study, we propose rational multi-epitope candidate against SARS-CoV-2. Using bioinformatics, constructed library of potential peptides, based on the affinity most common human histocompatibility...
Candida sp. is the microorganism most frequently involved in fungal infections critically ill patients. Candidemia common form of invasive candidiasis entering bloodstream from gastrointestinal tract and skin. Worldwide candidemia stands out as one leading causes morbidity with significant increases its incidence prevalence recent years. In addition, it raises costs hospital care. Although several studies show that early initiation antifungal treatment improves patients' prognosis, there are...

A retrospective survey of 1456 cataract operations done at one hospital from 1991 to 1994 found three cases chronic pseudophakic endophthalmitis. In two these and referred another center, microbiological studies aqueous humor, capsular bag, vitreous humor were performed using an identical technique. The histopathology in the showed presence microorganisms wall, although cultures only positive case (for corynebacterium species).
HIV infection makes carriers susceptible to develop a group of infections that would not normally be found in an immunocompetent patient. In Colombia, total 11,606 cases were reported 2015. This paper documents the case patient diagnosed with infection, who developed lesions typically caused by varicellazoster virus. These vesicular evolved into phlyctenas local necrosis. Given presentation, diagnosis skin immunocompromised or HIV-infected patients becomes challenge for health professionals...

Abstract The coronavirus pandemic is a major public health crisis affecting global systems with dire socioeconomic consequences, especially in vulnerable regions such as Latin America. There an urgent need for vaccine to help control contagion, reduce mortality and alleviate social costs. In this study, we propose rational multi-epitope against SARS-CoV-2. Using bioinformatics, constructed library of potential peptides predict immunological complexes among antigenic, non-toxic non-allergenic...
Gastrointestinal tuberculosis is a rare and difficult pathology to diagnose, which associated with various social economic factors as well the state of health sufferer.

Signs symptoms manifested by not specific often staff suspect first focuses on other diseases that more prevalent....
El virus del Zika (ZIKV) es un Arbovirus genero Flavivirus, que ha cobrado gran importancia en los ultimos anos por reportes de contagio areas originalmente no endemicas, como America Latina, ademas impacto economico, social y cultural derivados las posibles secuelas congenitas. Esta revision aborda manera integral avances relacionados con la clinica, fisiopatologia, diagnostico, tratamiento una complicaciones generales perinatales microcefalia documentadas infeccion el Zika.
