Article Synopsis
  • A study investigated the link between specific genetic polymorphisms and ST elevation Myocardial Infarction in young Mexican individuals, involving 350 patients under 45 and 350 matched controls.
  • The A1166C polymorphism was found to significantly increase the risk of Myocardial Infarction, while G20210A, G1691A, 97G > T, and A1298C did not show a similar association.
  • Other factors like dyslipidemia, hypertension, smoking, and family history were also linked to increased risks, indicating that genetic variations might contribute to early cardiovascular issues, but more research is needed on gene interactions.

Background: Several polymorphisms had been associated with an increased risk of ischemic stroke, but results are inconclusive. The aim of this study was to examine the association between AGTR1 A1166C and TSP-1 N700S polymorphisms and ischemic stroke in a young Mexican population.

Methods: In a case-control study, 250 patients ≤ 45 years of age with ischemic stroke and 250 controls matched by age and gender were included.

Risk factors associated with severe-critical COVID-19 (coronavirus disease 2019) are based on findings in the general population. Pregnant women are at increased risk of severe-critical infection, and few reports are based on these women. A multicentric case-control study was conducted at the Mexican Institute of Social Security, State of Mexico, during the COVID-19 pandemic.

Background: The COVID-19 pandemic represented a challenge in medical care. A tool would be very useful to establish the prognosis of in-hospital death that is reliable and can be applied to the Mexican population entitled to the IMSS.

Objective: To propose a prognostic scale to stratify patients with viral pneumonia COVID-19 in the emergency services.
