Article Synopsis
- - The study evaluates the effectiveness and safety of adalimumab in treating non-infectious uveitis across four Spanish hospitals from 2012 to 2022, analyzing patient data on relapses, inflammation, and medication dosage changes.
- - Out of 122 patients, most were middle-aged Caucasian women with refractory uveitis; results showed significant reductions in both relapses and corticosteroid use, along with improved visual acuity.
- - Overall, adalimumab demonstrated high efficacy and safety in managing non-infectious uveitis, with minimal serious side effects and a low incidence of anti-drug antibody development.
Antecedentes: El síndrome de Wiskott-Aldrich (SWA) es un raro trastorno ligado al cromosoma X que se considera que afecta predominantemente a varones.
Objetivo: El objetivo de este estudio consistía en investigar la incidencia y la mortalidad intrahospitalaria del SWA en España, así como el sesgo de género.
MÉtodos: Se llevó a cabo un estudio epidemiológico retrospectivo poblacional en 97 pacientes con SWA diagnosticados en hospitales españoles entre 1997 y 2017, utilizando para ello datos del Sistema Nacional de Vigilancia de Datos Hospitalarios.
Coastal communities throughout the world are exposed to numerous and increasing threats, such as coastal flooding and erosion, saltwater intrusion and wetland degradation. Here, we present the first global-scale analysis of the main drivers of coastal flooding due to large-scale oceanographic factors. Given the large dimensionality of the problem (e.

This study compares quantiles of the Gumbel distribution of Hs (significant wave height) and Tp (peak period) from simulated data with an 11 months' time series obtained from a buoy moored seaward on the Santa Catarina coast. Analysis by means of Gumbel distribution quantiles allows more weight to be given to the highest values of the time series, which are especially important in design projects.
