| 1 | Device-associated infection rates, mortality, length of stay and bacterial resistance in intensive care units in Ecuador: International Nosocomial Infection Control Consortium's findings显示文摘AIM To report the results of the International Nosocomial Infection Control Consortium(INICC) study conducted in Quito, Ecuador.METHODS A device-associated healthcare-acquired infection(DAHAI) prospective surveillance study conducted from October 2013 to January 2015 in 2 adult intensive care units(ICUs) from 2 hospitals using the United States Centers for Disease Control/National Healthcare Safety Network(CDC/NHSN) definitions and INICC methods. RESULTS We followed 776 ICU patients for 4818 bed-days. The central line-associated bloodstream infection(CLABSI) rate was 6.5 per 1000 central line(CL)-days, the ventilator-associated pneumonia(VAP) rate was 44.3 per 1000 mechanical ventilator(MV)-days, and the catheterassociated urinary tract infection(CAUTI) rate was 5.7 per 1000 urinary catheter(UC)-days. CLABSI and CAUTI rates in our ICUs were similar to INICC rates [4.9(CLABSI) and 5.3(CAUTI)] and higher than NHSN rates [0.8(CLABSI) and 1.3(CAUTI)]- although device use ratios for CL and UC were higher than INICC and CDC/NSHN's ratios. By contrast, despite the VAP rate was higher than INICC(16.5) and NHSN's rates(1.1), MV DUR was lower in our ICUs. Resistance of A. baumannii to imipenem and meropenem was 75.0%, and of Pseudomonas aeruginosa to ciprofloxacin and piperacillin-tazobactam was higher than 72.7%, all them higher than CDC/NHSN rates. Excess length of stay was 7.4 d for patients with CLABSI, 4.8 for patients with VAP and 9.2 for patients CAUTI. Excess crude mortality in ICUs was 30.9% for CLABSI, 14.5% for VAP and 17.6% for CAUTI. CONCLUSION DA-HAI rates in our ICUs from Ecuador are higher than United States CDC/NSHN rates and similar to INICC international rates. | Estuardo Salgado Yepez Maria M Bovera Victor D Rosenthal Hugo A González Flores Leonardo Pazmino Francisco Valencia Nelly Alquinga Vanessa Ramirez Edgar Jara Miguel Lascano Veronica Delgado Cristian Cevallos Gasdali Santacruz Cristian Pelaéz Celso Zaruma Diego Barahona Pinto | 2017 | World Journal of Biological Chemistry2017，8，1： | 23 |
| 2 | Safety of tirofiban and dual antiplatelet therapy in treating intracranial aneurysms显示文摘Background Endovascular treatment of intracranial aneurysms usually involves stent-assisted coiling(SAC)and flow diverters.Glycoprotein IIb/IIIa inhibitors such as tirofiban and dual antiplatelet therapy(DAPT)are required to prevent thromboembolic complications afterwards.We sought to determine the safety of tirofiban and DAPT in these cases.Methods We conducted a retrospective analysis of our database for patients with intracranial aneurysms who underwent SAC or flow diversion.The tirofiban-DAPT protocol used is described.Data regarding duration of infusion,placement of external ventricular devices(EVDs),complications,haemoglobin levels and platelet count before and 24 hours after antiplatelet therapy were collected and analysed.results One-hundred and forty-one patients with 148 aneurysms/procedures were included.110 aneurysms were treated acutely and 38 electively.Minor and major haemorrhagic events were recognised in 20%(30/148)aneurysms.Only 5(3.4%)intracerebral haemorrhages were symptomatic:3 cortical/SAH and 2 EVD-related.The average blood volume in symptomatic haemorrhages was 24.8 cc versus 5.42 cc in asymptomatic haemorrhages(p=0.002).The rate of EVD-related haemorrhages was 15.7%(19/121)and only 2(1.7%)were symptomatic.Most haemorrhagic events occurred in ruptured aneurysms(90.1%,p=0.01).No significant change in platelet count or haemoglobin levels before and 24 hours after administration of tirofiban and DAPT was documented.Concomitant administration of heparin did not increase haemorrhagic events.Conclusion The use of the GP IIb/IIIa inhibitors tirofiban and DAPT in this series was safe.Tirofiban and DAPT did not affect platelet count or haemoglobin levels and did not increase rate of symptomatic haemorrhages or thromboembolic complications. | Edgar A Samaniego Emilee Gibson Daichi Nakagawa Santiago Ortega-Gutierrez Mario Zanaty Jorge A Roa Pascal Jabbour David M Hasan | 2019 | Stroke & Vascular Neurology2019，4，1： | 17 |
| 3 | Management of nonalcoholic fatty liver disease:An evidence-based clinical practice review显示文摘AIM:To build a consensus among Chilean specialists on the appropriate management of patients with nonalcoholic fatty liver disease(NAFLD)in clinical practice.METHODS:NAFLD has now reached epidemic proportions worldwide.The optimal treatment for NAFLD has not been established due to a lack of evidence-based recommendations.An expert panel of members of the Chilean Gastroenterological Society and the Chilean Hepatology Association conducted a structured analysis of the current literature on NAFLD therapy.The quality of the evidence and the level of recommendations supporting each statement were assessed according to the recommendations of the United States Preventive Services Task Force.A modified three-round Delphi technique was used to reach a consensus among the experts.RESULTS:A group of thirteen experts was established.The survey included 17 open-ended questions that were distributed among the experts,who assessed the articles associated with each question.The levels of agreement achieved by the panel were 93.8%in the first round and 100%in the second and third rounds.The final recommendations support the indication of lifestyle changes,including diet and exercise,for all patients with NAFLD.Proven pharmacological therapies include only vitamin E and pioglitazone,which can be used in nondiabetic patients with biopsy-proven nonalcoholic steatohepatitis(the progressive form of NAFLD),although the long-term safety and efficacy of these therapies have not yet been established.CONCLUSION:Current NAFLD management is rapidly evolving,and new pathophysiology-based therapies are expected to be introduced in the near future.All NAFLD patients should be evaluated using a three-focused approach that considers the risks of liver disease,diabetes and cardiovascular events. | Juan P Arab Roberto Candia Rodrigo Zapata Cristián Mu?oz Juan P Arancibia Jaime Poniachik Alejandro Soza Francisco Fuster Javier Brahm Edgar Sanhueza Jorge Contreras M Carolina Cuellar Marco Arrese Arnoldo Riquelme | 2014 | World Journal of Gastroenterology2014，20，34： | 11 |
| 4 | Stroke mechanisms and outcomes of isolated symptomatic basilar artery stenosis显示文摘background While diffuse atherosclerotic disease affecting the posterior circulation has been described extensively,the prevalence,natural history and angiographic characteristics of isolated symptomatic basilar artery stenosis(ISBAS)remain unknown.Methods We reviewed our prospective institutional database to identify patients with≥50% symptomatic basilar artery(BA)stenosis without significant atherosclerotic burden in the vertebral or posterior cerebral arteries.Stroke mechanism,collateral circulation,and degree and length of stenosis were analysed.The primary outcome was time from index event to new transient ischaemic attack(TIA),acute ischaemic stroke(AIS)or death.Other outcome variables included modified Rankin Scale(mRS)score on discharge and last follow-up.results Of 6369 patients with AIS/TIA,91(1.43%)had ISBAS.Seventy-three(80.2%)patients presented with AIS and 18(19.8%)with TIA.Twenty-nine(31.9%)were women and the median age was 66.8±13.6 years.The mean follow-up time was 2.7 years.The most common stroke mechanism was artery-to artery thromboembolism(45.2%),followed by perforator occlusion(28.7%)and flow-dependent/hypoperfusion(15.1%).The percentage of stenosis was lower in patients who had favourable outcome compared with those with mRS 3-6 on discharge(78.3±14.3 vs 86.9±14.5,p=0.007).Kaplan-Meier curves showed higher recurrence/death rates in patients with≥80% stenosis,mid-basilar location and poor collateral circulation.Approximately 13% of patients with ISBAS presented with complete BA occlusion.Conclusion ISBAS is an uncommon(1.43%)cause of TIA and AIS.Men in their 60s are mostly affected,and artery-to artery embolism is the most common stroke mechanism.Mid-basilar location,≥80% stenosis and poor collateral circulation are important factors associated with worse prognosis. | Edgar A Samaniego Amir Shaban Santiago Ortega-Gutierrez Jorge A Roa David M Hasan Colin Derdeyn Biyue Dai Harold Adams Enrique Leira | 2019 | Stroke & Vascular Neurology2019，4，4： | 10 |
| 5 | Natural orifice transluminal endoscopic surgery:The transvaginal route moving forward from cholecystectomy显示文摘The advent of minimally invasive surgery and the advances in endoluminal flexible endoscopy have converged to generate a new concept in digestive surgery,whose acronym natural orifice transluminal endoscopic surgery(NOTES),has become a familiar term in the surgical community.NOTES has been performed through the mouth,the bladder,the rectum and the vagina.Of these four approaches,the vagina has gained most popularity for several reasons.It is not only readily accessible and easy to decontaminate but it also provides safe entry and simple closure.The transvaginal approach has been described in the experimental and the clinical setting as an option for cholecystectomy,nephrectomy,splenectomy,segmental gastrectomy,retroperitoneal exploration and bariatric surgery.However,larger series are needed to delineate the exact risks of this approach,and to transcend cultural barriers that impede its wider introduction.Prospective randomized trials will shed light on the definitive role of the vaginal approach in minimal invasive surgery of the future. | Eduardo M Targarona Edgar Mauricio Maldonado Jose Antonio Marzol Franco Marinello | 2010 | World Journal of Gastrointestinal Surgery2010，2，6： | 4 |

| 8 | Current trends of liver cirrhosis in Mexico: Similitudes and differences with other world regions显示文摘AIM To investigate the main current etiologies of cirrhosis in Mexico.METHODS We performed a cross-sectional retrospective multicenter study that included eight hospitals in different areas of Mexico. These hospitals provide health care to people of diverse social classes. The inclusion criteria were a histological, clinical, biochemical, endoscopic, or imaging diagnosis of liver cirrhosis. Data were obtained during a 5-year period(January 2012-December 2017). RESULTS A total of 1210 patients were included. The mean age was 62.5 years(SD = 12.1), and the percentages of men and women were similar(52.0% vs 48.0%). The most frequent causes of liver cirrhosis were hepatitis C virus(HCV)(36.2%), alcoholic liver disease(ALD)(31.2%), and nonalcoholic steatohepatitis(23.2%), and the least frequent were hepatitis B virus(1.1%), autoimmune disorders(7.3%), and other conditions(1.0%).CONCLUSION HCV and ALD are the most frequent causes of cirrhosis in Mexico. However, we note that non-alcoholic fatty liver disease(NAFLD) as an etiology of cirrhosis increased by 100% compared with the rate noted previously. We conclude that NAFLD will soon become one of the most frequent etiologies of liver cirrhosis in Mexico. | Nahum Méndez-Sánchez Felipe Zamarripa-Dorsey Arturo Panduro Emma Purón-González Edgar Ulises Coronado-Alejandro Carlos Alejandro Cortez-Hernández Fátima Higuera de la Tijera José Luis Pérez-Hernández Eira Cerda-Reyes Heriberto Rodríguez-Hernández Vania César Cruz-Ramón Oscar Lenin Ramírez-Pérez Nancy Edith Aguilar-Olivos Olga Fabiola Rodríguez-Martínez Samantha Cabrera-Palma Guillermo Cabrera-álvarez | 2018 | World Journal of Clinical Cases2018，6，15： | 2 |
