Abstract

Objectives: This study aimed to assess the real use of cefazolin for methicillin-susceptible Staphylococcus aureus (MSSA) infective endocarditis (IE) in the Spanish National Endocarditis Database (GAMES) and to compare it with antistaphylococcal penicillin (ASP). Methods: Prospective cohort study with retrospective analysis of a cohort of MSSA IE treated with cloxacillin and/or cefazolin. Outcomes assessed were relapse; intra-hospital, overall, and endocarditis-related mortality; and adverse events. Risk of renal toxicity with each treatment was evaluated separately. Results: We included 631 IE episodes caused by MSSA treated with cloxacillin and/or cefazolin. Antibiotic treatment was cloxacillin, cefazolin, or both in 537 (85%), 57 (9%), and 37 (6%) episodes, respectively. Patients treated with cefazolin had significantly higher rates of comorbidities (median Charlson Index 7, P

Abstract

Descrita como um erro metabólico hereditário autossômico recessivo, a Glicogenólise Tipo I ou Doença de Von Gierke, compreende uma deficiência da enzima glicose 6-fosfatase, responsável pela reação final da glicogenólise e gliconeogênese. Esta revisão bibliográfica trata da temática atual da doença de Von Gierke, tendo como objetivo a breve descrição e resumo do que foi achado nos últimos anos relacionando a fisiopatologia, diagnóstico, prognóstico e tratamento. A busca sistemática de ensaios clínicos randomizados e não randomizados foi realizada por meio das bases eletrônicas de dados utilizando-se o descritor Glicogenose do Tipo Ia em inglês, sendo os resultados tratados como objeto de análise. Nota-se que os pacientes com essa patologia não convertem a glicose 6-fosfato em glicose livre para a corrente sanguínea, resultando em um acúmulo excessivo de glicogênio e gordura no fígado, rins e intestinos. Dentre os 13 tipos de glicogenoses, a tipo Ia é a mais comum e uma das mais graves. Indivíduos com GSD Tipo Ia apresentam hipoglicemia, hipertrigliceridemia, hiperuricemia, hepatomegalia e em alguns casos nefromegalia. Conhecer os aspectos bioquímicos da doença é de fundamental importância para que se desenvolva um manejo adequado no tratamento e assim, minimizar os seus efeitos deletérios.&nbsp

Abstract

GAMES Investigators., [Background] Enterococcal endocarditis (EE) is a growing entity in Western countries. However, quality data from large studies is lacking., [Objectives] The purpose of this study was to describe the characteristics and analyze the prognostic factors of EE in the GAMES cohort., [Methods] This was a post hoc analysis of a prospectively collected cohort of patients from 35 Spanish centers from 2008 to 2016. Characteristics and outcomes of 516 cases of EE were compared with those of 3,308 cases of nonenterococcal endocarditis (NEE). Logistic regression and Cox proportional hazards regression analysis were performed to investigate risk factors for in-hospital and 1-year mortality, as well as relapses., [Results] Patients with EE were significantly older; more frequently presented chronic lung disease, chronic heart failure, prior endocarditis, and degenerative valve disease; and had higher median age-adjusted Charlson score. EE more frequently involved the aortic valve and prosthesis (64.3% vs. 46.7%; p < 0.001; and 35.9% vs. 28.9%; p = 0.002, respectively) but less frequently pacemakers/defibrillators (1.5% vs. 10.5%; p < 0.001), and showed higher rates of acute heart failure (45% vs. 38.3%; p = 0.005). Cardiac surgery was less frequently performed in EE (40.7% vs. 45.9%; p = 0.024). No differences in in-hospital and 1-year mortality were found, whereas relapses were significantly higher in EE (3.5% vs. 1.7%; p = 0.035). Increasing Charlson score, LogEuroSCORE, acute heart failure, septic shock, and paravalvular complications were risk factors for mortality, whereas prior endocarditis was protective and persistent bacteremia constituted the sole risk factor for relapse., [Conclusions] Besides other baseline and clinical differences, EE more frequently affects prosthetic valves and less frequently pacemakers/defibrillators. EE presents higher rates of relapse than NEE.

Abstract

Purpose: To analyze the influence of adding gentamicin to a regimen consisting of β-lactam or vancomycin plus rifampicin on survival in patients suffering from Staphylococcal prosthetic valve endocarditis (SPVE). Methods: From January 2008 to September 2016, 334 patients with definite SPVE were attended in the participating hospitals. Ninety-four patients (28.1%) received treatment based on β-lactam or vancomycin plus rifampicin and were included in the study. Variables were analyzed which related to patient survival during admission, including having received treatment with gentamicin. Results: Seventy-seven (81.9%) were treated with cloxacillin (or vancomycin) plus rifampicin plus gentamicin, and 17 patients (18.1%) received the same regimen without gentamicin. The causative microorganism was Staphylococcus aureus in 40 cases (42.6%) and coagulase-negative staphylococci in 54 cases (57.4%). Overall, 40 patients (42.6%) died during hospital admission, 33 patients (42.9%) in the group receiving gentamicin and 7 patients in the group that did not (41.2%, P = 0.899). Worsening renal function was observed in 42 patients (54.5%) who received gentamicin and in 9 patients (52.9%) who did not (p = 0.904). Heart failure as a complication of endocarditis (OR: 4.58; CI 95%: 1.84–11.42) and not performing surgery when indicated (OR: 2.68; CI 95%: 1.03–6.94) increased mortality. Gentamicin administration remained unrelated to mortality (OR: 1.001; CI 95%: 0.29–3.38) in the multivariable analysis. Conclusions: The addition of gentamicin to a regimen containing vancomycin or cloxacillin plus rifampicin in SPVE was not associated to better outcome.

Abstract

Resumen Fundamento y objetivo Los anticoagulantes orales directos (ACOD) precisan ajuste de dosis segun el estimated clearance creatinine (eClCr, «aclaramiento de creatinina estimado») por la ecuacion de Cockcroft-Gault (CG). Existen discrepancias entre las ecuaciones que estiman el filtrado glomerular (FGe). Analizamos como afecta a la posologia recomendada para los ACOD el empleo de las ecuaciones CKD-EPI y MDRD-4 IDMS. Pacientes y metodos Estudio retrospectivo de pacientes con fibrilacion auricular no valvular atendidos en una consulta de cardiologia entre noviembre de 2012 y agosto de 2014. Se reclasifican los pacientes segun la posologia recomendada para dabigatran, rivaroxaban, apixaban y edoxaban en funcion de la ecuacion de FGe empleada. Se tienen en cuenta otros factores clinicos, segun ficha tecnica. Analizamos el porcentaje de discordancia. Resultados Se estudian 454 pacientes, 53,3% hombres, con una edad media de 68,7 ± 13,8 anos. La media de las diferencias intraindividuales registradas respecto a la ecuacion de GC fue de 3,9 ml/min/1,73 m2 con MDRD-4 IDMS (IC 95% 1,4-6,4; p = 0,003) y 11,3 ml/min/1,73 m2 con CKD-EPI (IC 95% 8,9-13,7; p Conclusiones En pacientes con fibrilacion auricular no valvular, especialmente con insuficiencia renal y en ancianos, las ecuaciones de FGe tienden a sobreestimar la funcion renal respecto a CG y, por ello, a recomendar una sobredosificacion de los ACOD.

Abstract

Objective: To investigate the rate of colorectal neoplasms (CRNs) in patients who have Enterococcus faecalis infective endocarditis (EFIE) with available colonoscopies and to assess whether this is associated with the identification of a focus the infection. Patients and Methods: Retrospective analysis of data from a prospective multicenter study involving 35 centers who are members of the Grupo de Apoyo para el Manejo de la Endocarditis en Espana [Support Group for the Management of Infective Endocarditis in Spain] cohort. A specific set of queries regarding information on colonoscopy and histopathology of colorectal diseases was sent to each participating center. Four-hundred sixty-seven patients with EFIE were included from January 1, 2008, to December 31, 2017, from whom data on colonoscopy performance and results were available in 411 patients. Results: One hundred forty-two (34.5%) patients had a colonoscopy close to the EFIE episode. The overall rate of colorectal diseases was 70.4% (100 of 142), whereas the prevalence of CRN (advanced adenomas and colorectal carcinoma) was 14.8% (21 of 142), with no significant differences between the group of EFIE of unknown focus and that with an identified focus. Conclusion: Our study adds to prior evidence suggesting a much higher rate of CRN among patients with EFIE than in the general population of the same age and sex. In addition, our findings suggest that this phenomenon might take place both in EFIE with an unknown and an identified source of infection.

Abstract

To evaluate the course of left-sided infective endocarditis (LsIE) in patients with liver cirrhosis (LC) analyzing its influence on mortality and the impact of surgery.Prospective cohort study, conducted from 1984 to 2013 in 26 Spanish hospitals.A total of 3.136 patients with LsIE were enrolled and 308 had LC: 151 Child-Pugh A, 103 B, 34 C and 20 were excluded because of unknown stage. Mortality was significantly higher in the patients with LsIE and LC (42.5% vs. 28.4%; p0.01) and this condition was in general an independent worse factor for outcome (HR 1.51, 95% CI: 1.23-1.85; p0.001). However, patients in stage A had similar mortality to patients without cirrhosis (31.8% vs. 28.4% p = NS) and in this stage heart surgery had a protective effect (28% in operated patients vs. 60% in non-operated when it was indicated). Mortality was significantly higher in stages B (52.4%) and C (52.9%) and the prognosis was better for patients in stage B who underwent surgery immediately (mortality 50%) compared to those where surgery was delayed (58%) or not performed (74%). Only one patient in stage C underwent surgery.Patients with liver cirrhosis and infective endocarditis have a poorer prognosis only in stages B and C. Early surgery must be performed in stages A and although in selected patients in stage B when indicated.

Abstract

BACKGROUND: The TIMI‐AF score predicts poor outcomes in patients with atrial fibrillation (AF) and guides selection of anticoagulant therapy by identifying clinical benefit of direct oral anticoagulants (DOACs) or vitamin K antagonists (VKA). HYPOTHESIS: Our objective was to determine the ability to predict cardiovascular events according to the TIMI‐AF score in a real‐world population. METHODS: Retrospective observational study of VKA‐naïve patients with AF was seen at a cardiology outpatient clinic in Spain between November 2012 and August 2014. We recorded adverse events (myocardial infarction, systemic embolism or stroke, major bleeding, and death). RESULTS: The study population comprised of 426 patients (50.7% men, mean age, 69 ± 14 years). The TIMI‐AF score identified 372 patients (87.3%) with a low risk, 50 patients (11.7%) with an intermediate risk, and 4 patients (0.9%) with a high risk. After a mean follow‐up of 423.4 ± 200.1 days, 37 patients (9%) experienced an adverse event. Patients with a TIMI‐AF score ≥ 7 had a poorer cardiovascular prognosis (HR, 6.1; 95%CI, 3.2‐11.7; P < 0.001). The area under the ROC curve of TIMI‐AF was 0.755 (95%CI, 0.669‐0.840; P < 0.001), which was greater than that of CHA(2)DS(2)VASc (0.641; 95%CI, 0.559‐0.724; P = 0.004), HAS‐BLED (0.666; 95%CI, 0.578‐0.755; P < 0.001), and SAMeTT(2)R(2) (0.529; 95%CI, 0.422‐0.636; P = 0.565). Similar results were obtained in relation to the net clinical outcome (life‐threatening bleeding, disabling stroke, or all‐cause mortality). CONCLUSIONS: The TIMI‐AF risk score can identify patients who are at greater risk of cardiovascular events and a poor net clinical outcome with a better diagnostic yield than CHA(2)DS(2)VASc, HAS‐BLED, and SAMeTT(2)R(2).

Abstract

Aim: To evaluate medication persistence and outcomes in patients with atrial fibrillation after 2 years of treatment with rivaroxaban in routine practice. Methods: Retrospective study of atrial fibrillation patients in whom rivaroxaban was prescribed during the first quarter of 2014 in the healthcare area of Costa del Sol (Málaga). Results: A total of 111 patients (mean age 74.9 ± 10.9 years; 52.3% men; CHA2DS2-VASc 3.6 ± 1.3; HAS-BLED 1.3 ± 0.6) were included. A total of 96.3 and 90.6% of patients remained on rivaroxaban therapy after 1 and 2 years of treatment, respectively. During this period, stroke, net clinical benefit outcome (thromboembolic events, myocardial infarction, cardiovascular death and major bleeding) and cardiovascular death occurred in 3.6, 5.4 and 1.8% of patients, respectively. Conclusion: In routine practice, medication persistence with rivaroxaban was high. Rates of major cardiac events were low.

Abstract

Background: There is little information concerning infective endocarditis (IE) in patients with bicuspid aortic valve (BAV) or mitral valve prolapse (MVP). Currently, IE antibiotic prophylaxis (IEAP) is not recommended for these conditions. Objectives: This study sought to describe the clinical and microbiological features of IE in patients with BAV and MVP and compare them with those of IE patients with and without IEAP indication, to determine the potential benefit of IEAP in these conditions. Methods: This analysis involved 3,208 consecutive IE patients prospectively included in the GAMES (Grupo de Apoyo al Manejo de la Endocarditis infecciosa en España) registry at 31 Spanish hospitals. Patients were classified as high-risk IE with IEAP indication (high-risk group; n = 1,226), low- and moderate-risk IE without IEAP indication (low/moderate-risk group; n = 1,839), and IE with BAV (n = 54) or MVP (n = 89). Results: BAV and MVP patients had a higher incidence of viridans group streptococci IE than did high-risk group and low/moderate-risk group patients (35.2% and 39.3% vs. 12.1% and 15.0%, respectively; all p < 0.01). A similar pattern was seen for IE from suspected odontologic origin (14.8% and 18.0% vs. 5.8% and 6.0%; all p < 0.01). BAV and MVP patients had more intracardiac complications than did low/moderate-risk group (50% and 47.2% vs. 30.6%, both p < 0.01) patients and were similar to high-risk group patients. Conclusions: IE in patients with BAV and MVP have higher rates of viridans group streptococci IE and IE from suspected odontologic origin than in other IE patients, with a clinical profile similar to that of high-risk IE patients. Our findings suggest that BAV and MVP should be classified as high-risk IE conditions and the case for IEAP should be reconsidered.

Abstract

Background and objective Direct oral anticoagulants (DOACs) require dose adjustment according to estimated clearance creatinine (eClCr) using the Cockcroft–Gault (CG) equation. There are discrepancies with the equations that estimate glomerular filtration rate (eGFR). We analyse how the use of the CKD-EPI and MDRD-4 IDMS equations affect the recommended dosage for ACODs. Patients and methods Retrospective study of patients with non-valvular atrial fibrillation seen at a cardiology clinic between November 2012 and August 2014. Patients were reclassified according to the recommended dosage for dabigatran, rivaroxaban, apixaban and edoxaban, based on the eGFR equation used. Other clinical factors are taken into account, according to the product label. We analysed the percentage of discordance. Results Four hundred and fifty-four patients, 53.3% men, with a mean age of 68.7 ± 13.8 years were studied. The mean intra-individual differences recorded for the CG equation were 3.9 ml/min/1.73 m2 with MDRD-4 IDMS (95% CI 1.4–6.4, p = 0.003) and 11.3 ml/min/1.73 m2 with CKD-EPI (95% CI 8.9–13.7, p Conclusions In patients with non-valvular atrial fibrillation, especially with renal failure and in the elderly, eGFR equations tend to overestimate renal function relative to CG and therefore suggest an overdose of DOACs.

Abstract

"By way of word games and schematics, Anna M. Szaflarski searches for the ‘emergent properties’ that materialize between texts. This book compiles the issues from Letters to the Editors: a self-printed black and white bi-weekly journal dedicated to text-based practices, written and distributed by Szaflarski between October 2014 and November 2015. Each issue combined Szaflarski's texts with contributions from artists, writers, family, friends, librarians, and colleagues, ranging from poetry and fiction to essays and manifestos. As the project progressed the letters came together and the body of LTTE formed: It had arms and legs, perhaps a brain but above all, a heart and a stomach, often aching, rarely satisfied." -- Publisher's website.

Abstract

Aim: To evaluate medication persistence and outcomes in patients with atrial fibrillation after 2 years of treatment with rivaroxaban in routine practice.Methods: Retrospective study of atrial fibrillation patients in whom rivaroxaban was prescribed during the first quarter of 2014 in the healthcare area of Costa del Sol (Málaga).Results: A total of 111 patients (mean age 74.9 ± 10.9 years; 52.3% men; CHA2DS2-VASc 3.6 ± 1.3; HAS-BLED 1.3 ± 0.6) were included. A total of 96.3 and 90.6% of patients remained on rivaroxaban therapy after 1 and 2 years of treatment, respectively. During this period, stroke, net clinical benefit outcome (thromboembolic events, myocardial infarction, cardiovascular death and major bleeding) and cardiovascular death occurred in 3.6, 5.4 and 1.8% of patients, respectively.Conclusion: In routine practice, medication persistence with rivaroxaban was high. Rates of major cardiac events were low. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

Abstract

"We undertook this study to (1) evaluate an in vitro procedure for plantlet regeneration of Castilleja tenuiflora Benth. (Scrophulariaceae) from axillary buds and (2) inducecallugenesis and organogenesis through the manipulation of explant type, culturemedia and plant growth regulators. An efficient propagation protocol for in vitro multiplication and plantlet regeneration of C. tenuiflora using axillary buds of wild plants was developed. Shoot multiplication was induced from axillary buds in Murashige and Skoog (MS) medium containing 0.2 mg L-1 BAP and 0.1 mg L-1 NAA with an effi ciency of 33%. Shoot multiplication and elongation were achieved in one step using 0.1 mg L-1 IBA and 0.25 mg L-1 BAP. After 14 days, an average of four shoots per explant was observed. For rooting, IBA was increased to 1.0 mg L-1 and BAP was excluded. Hyperhydricity was not observed and 88% of the shoots rooted. From one axillary bud, 250 plantlets were produced within eight weeks. To induce callugenesis and organogenesis, explants (leaves and internodes) from plantlets were excisedand inoculated into MS, B5 and NN culture media in combination with NAA (0-10 uM) and kinetin (0-0.5 uM). In general, rhizogenesis was the main in vitro response (up to 100%) followed by shoot formation (5-50%) and, finally, callugenesis (2-35%). Internodes were more competent than leaves for both callugenesis and organogenesis, along with the fact that leaf explants oxidized easily. Rhizogenesis depended on exogenous NAA, but auxin requirement varied according to the culture medium and type of explant used. On the basis of our results, conditions for callugenesis and organogenesis induction of C. tenuiflora can be recommended: a) callus-internode, 0.1 uM NAA and B5 medium; b) rhizogenesis- 0.1 uM NAA and NN medium; and c) shoots-internode, 0.1 ¿M NAA and MS medium. Results of the present study show the feasibility of using in vitro culture to propagate and conserve germplasm of the -'ancer herb' C. tenuiflora."

Abstract

A truncation criterion to solve the vector potential integrals proposed by Takahashi and Kawase is described in this letter. The main aim of those integrals is to estimate the depth and resistivity parameters of a stratified ground block. The derivation of the proposed criterion considers the error introduced by the infinite limit truncation of the integrals. In addition, an efficient solution can be obtained by the use of the trapezoidal rule of integration.
