Prevalence of Respiratory Syncytial Virus Infection in Hospitalized COPD Patients in Spain Between 2018-2022.

Background: Respiratory syncytial virus (RSV) infection is a common cause of hospital admission. The association between chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) exacerbation and RSV infection is not well studied.

Objective: To analyze the hospitalizations of patients with COPD and RSV infection in Spain between 2018 and 2022.

Pregnancy Outcomes and Maternal Characteristics in Women with Pregestational and Gestational Diabetes: A Population-Based Study in Spain, 2016-2022.

: The objective of this study was to compare trends in the incidence of deliveries and in obstetric interventions and outcomes in women with and without type 1 diabetes (T1DM), type 2 diabetes (T2DM), and gestational diabetes (GDM). : This was an observational study using the Spanish National Hospital Discharge Database (2016-2022). : A total of 1,995,953 deliveries were recorded between 2016 and 2022 (6495 mothers with T1DM, 5449 with T2DM, and 124,172 with GDM).

Consequences of Early Maternal Deprivation on Neuroinflammation and Mitochondrial Dynamics in the Central Nervous System of Male and Female Rats.

Early life stress (ELS) is associated with an increased risk for neuropsychiatric disorders, and both neuroinflammation and mitochondrial dysfunction seem to be central to mental health. Herein, using an animal model of ELS, a single episode of maternal deprivation (MD, 24 h on pnd 9) extensively documented to elicit behavioural anomalies in male and female Wistar rats, we investigated its consequences in terms of neuroinflammation and mitochondrial dynamics in the prefrontal cortex (PFC) and the hippocampal formation (HCF). MD differentially affected the brain content of cytokines: MD induced a transient increase in pro-inflammatory cytokines (IL-1β and IL-6) in the PFC, as well as in the levels of the anti-inflammatory cytokine IL-10 in the HCF.

Burden of Respiratory Syncytial Virus Infection in Children and Older Patients Hospitalized with Asthma: A Seven-Year Longitudinal Population-Based Study in Spain.

(1) Background: To describe hospitalizations due to respiratory syncytial virus (RSV) infection among children and elderly patients with asthma. (2) Methods: We used a nationwide discharge database to select patients with asthma aged 0 to 15 years and ≥65 years admitted to Spanish hospitals from 2016 to 2022. (3) Results: We identified 49,086 children and 471,947 elderly patients hospitalized with asthma (3.

Deterioration Patterns in Patients Admitted for Severe COPD Exacerbation.

Background: Chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) exacerbations represent significant clinical events marked by worsening respiratory symptoms, often necessitating changes in medication or hospitalization. Identifying patterns of exacerbation and understanding their clinical implications are critical for improving patient outcomes. This study aimed to identify exacerbation patterns in COPD patients using variations in the COPD Assessment Test (CAT) scores and compare clinical characteristics and comorbidities among patients with different exacerbation patterns.
