Non-communicable diseases occur earlier in PLWH than in the general population.Objective: The goal of this study was to estimate the prevalence of comorbidities in PLWH and cancer in a tertiary referral center in Mexico City.Material and methods: In this retrospective study, we included PLWH > 40 years with a history of cancer, coming to Instituto Nacional de Cancerologia from 2010 through 2019. All patients needed to be on antiretrovirals for at least six months. Data collected included cancer type, comorbidities, frequency of polypharmacy, FRAX score and 10-year cardiovascular risk. Patients were evaluated for depression with the Beck Inventory Depression-II Scale. Variables associated to multimorbidity (2 or more comorbidities) were evaluated.Results: Of 125 patients, 69% had at least one comorbidity; 32% had ≥ 2. Common comorbidities were dyslipidemia (54%), hypertension (19%), obesity (14%) and Diabetes (12%). In patients ≥ 50 years, 29 (62%) already undergone a densitometry and 9 (31%) had osteoporosis; 56 depression questionnaires were used: 30% had mild-to-severe depression. Being ≥ 50 years was associated with multimorbidity (aOR 2.57 (1.18-5.58), p = 0.017).Conclusions: A high prevalence of multimorbidity and poor screening of bone disease and mental health is reported in patients with PLWH and cancer. A holistic approach to the PLWH in the Infectious Diseases consultation is needed to improve the detection and management of non-communicable diseases, to go beyond viral suppression and towards an improved quality of life.","PeriodicalId":12736,"journal":{"name":"Gaceta medica de Mexico","volume":"160 2","pages":"144-153"},"PeriodicalIF":0.6,"publicationDate":"2024-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"141909837","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The incidence, relative risk (RR), costs and outcomes of patients with UTI-RH were compared during the period before (P0) vs. after the intervention (P1).Results: 113 PNTs were inserted during P0, and 74 at P1.

The optimal number of cognitive clusters was determined by the silhouette method and a minimization of the Bayesian information criterion.Results: Participants' mean age was 58.8 years (standard deviation = 6.6), and 12.1% were women.

The definitive diagnosis is postmortem and is identified through the presence of neuronal death, gliosis, and aggregates of the tau protein presented in the form of neurofibrillary tangles (MNF) with a globose appearance in regions such as the subthalamic nucleus, the substantia nigra, and the globus pallidus The findings in ancillary imaging studies, as well as fluids biomarkers, are not sufficient to support diagnosis of PSP but are used to rule out similar pathologies because there are still no specific or validated biomarkers for this disease. The current treatment of PSP is focused on reducing symptoms, although emerging therapies seek to counteract its pathophysiological mechanisms. Cellular models constitute a good tool to determine the molecular mechanisms underlying them. Finally, PSP in Mexico has been little studied, and its diagnosis is often confused with Parkinson's disease, it has a great health and socio-economic impact on patients, their families, and caregivers, which is why it requires further investigation at both a basic and clinical level.","PeriodicalId":12736,"journal":{"name":"Gaceta medica de Mexico","volume":"160 4","pages":"374-383"},"PeriodicalIF":0.6,"publicationDate":"2024-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143004322","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
