Article Synopsis
  • Delirium is a common complication for older adults after hip fracture surgery, with a study analyzing patient data from 2015-2020 revealing inconsistent links between the type of anaesthesia used and the occurrence of delirium.
  • Among the 35,252 patients studied, those who received general anaesthesia (40.6%) showed higher rates of delirium compared to those who received spinal or regional anaesthesia (35.7%).
  • Adjustments for known confounders indicated a weak association between general anaesthesia and delirium, but an analysis addressing unmeasured factors found no significant causal link, suggesting more research is needed in this area.

Maintenance of lysosomal integrity is essential for cell viability. Upon injury, lysosomes may be targeted for degradation via a selective form of autophagy known as lysophagy. The engulfment of a damaged lysosome by an autophagosome is mediated by the recruitment of adaptor proteins, including SQSTM1/p62.

Dengue is the most important viral vector-borne disease in the tropics, with Colombia being one of the most affected countries. In this context, it is essential to identify and synthesize the existing evidence on the epidemiology of dengue in Colombia. A systematic review (PROSPERO CRD42021257985) was conducted by searching for epidemiological data in populations with suspected or confirmed dengue in Colombia from 2012 to 2020.
