Clinical and thyroid profile in patients with COVID-19 hospitalized in an intensive care unit.

Objective: This study aimed to summarize the epidemiological and clinical features of thyroid function in COVID-19 patients in the intensive care unit (ICU) of Civil Fray Antonio Alcalde Hospital in Mexico.

Patients And Methods: This is a cross-sectional study that included 63 ICU patients with COVID-19 from August 2021 to December 2021. Thyroid function was evaluated through the TSH, T4, T3, and FT3 measures.

Influence of blood meal source on the biological parameters of Triatoma pallidipennis (Heteroptera: Reduviidae) from Mexico.

Chagas disease is one of the most important vector-borne diseases in Latin America, including Mexico. Triatoma pallidipennis (Stål) (Hemiptera: Reduviidae) is a Mexican triatomine vector commonly associated with different hosts. The influence of six blood meals (rabbits, rats, mice, dogs, cats and chickens) on six biological parameters of the biology of T.

A New Record of the Introduced Species Triatoma infestans (Hemiptera: Reduviidae) in Mexico.

Here, we report a new record of Triatoma infestans (Klug) in Mexico after 50 years and provide a brief description of the discovery area. Fifty-nine specimens (71.2% adults) of the introduced species were collected from the peridomestic areas of a single house in the port of Manzanillo in the state of Colima, Mexico.

Biological parameters and estimation of the vectorial capacity of two subspecies of (Uhler) and their laboratory hybrids in Mexico.

Chagas disease is one of the most important vector-borne diseases in Latin America. Studying the biological parameters of each vector species or subspecies contributes to our understanding of their epidemiologic importance. The aim of our study was to compare the biological parameters and start to estimate the vectorial capacity of Ryckman, Ryckman, and their laboratory hybrids.

Life cycle of Lima-Cordón, Monroy, Stevens, Rodas, Rodas, Dorn, Justi 2019 (Hemiptera: Reduviidae: Triatominae) from Mexico.

Several important biological parameters for estimating the vectorial capacity of a triatomine species were determined on a Mexican population of the recently described Lima-Cordón, Monroy, Stevens, Rodas, Rodas, Dorn, Justi (Hemiptera: Reduviidae: Triatominae). The biological parameters were the egg-to-adult development time, number of blood meals required for molting, cumulative mortality, onset time for feeding, feeding and defecation behaviors, and fertility and fecundity of The median egg-to-adult development time was 253 days, with 11 blood meals required for molting. A cumulative mortality rate of 47.
