IntroducciÓn: El cáncer colorrectal es un gran problema de salud por su alta incidencia y mortalidad. Las metástasis cutáneas son raras, con una incidencia < 5%.

Caso ClÍnico: Varón con antecedente de colectomía por neoplasia de colon que 6 años después presenta una lesión cutánea. La biopsia informa de metástasis colónica, por lo que se realiza resección quirúrgica radical. La anatomía patológica confirma un adenocarcinoma moderadamente diferenciado compatible con metástasis colónica.

DiscusiÓn Y Conclusiones: Las metástasis cutáneas son raras y cuando aparecen nos indican una enfermedad avanzada, por lo que es importante un alto índice de sospecha en pacientes de riesgo para un diagnóstico precoz.

Introduction: Colorectal cancer is a big health problem due to its high incidence and mortality. Cutaneous metastases are rare with an incidence < 5%.

Clinical Case: A male with a history of colectomy due to colon cancer, who 6 years later presented a cutaneous lesion. The biopsy reported colonic metastasis, so radical surgical resection was performed. The pathological anatomy confirmed a moderately differentiated adenocarcinoma compatible with colonic metastasis.

Discussion And Conclusion: Cutaneous metastases are rare and when they appear they indicate an advanced disease, for that reason is important a high index of suspicion in patients at risk, for an early diagnosis.

Background: There is limited population-based evidence on the prevalence of cognitive impairment in Mexico, a country with a rapidly aging population and where key risk factors, such as diabetes and obesity, are common. This study describes the distribution of cognitive impairment in adults from Mexico City.

Methods: This cross-sectional population-based study included participants from the Mexico City Prospective Study which recruited 150,000 adults aged ≥ 35 years in 1998-2004.

Introduction And Aims: Women residing in lower socioeconomic status (SES) areas have lower breast cancer survival but it is not clear how differences in the quality of care received contribute to these disparities. We compared adherence to clinical practice guidelines (CPG) for the diagnosis and treatment of breast cancer and subsequent breast cancer survival between women residing in lower versus higher SES areas.

Methods: We conducted a multicentre population-based study of all new cases of invasive breast cancer in women diagnosed 2010-2014 in six Spanish provinces with population-based cancer registries (n=3206).

Identifying and assessing the magnitude of direct threats to ecosystems and species are critical steps to prioritizing, planning, implementing, and assessing conservation actions. Just as medical clinicians and researchers need a standard way to talk about human diseases, conservation practitioners and scientists need a common and comprehensive language to talk about the threats they are facing to facilitate joint action, evaluation, and learning. To meet this need, in 2008 the IUCN Species Survival Commission and the Conservation Measures Partnership produced the first version of a common threats classification with the understanding that it would be periodically updated to take into account new information and learning.

Objective: To report our recent experience with prenatal detection of significant cardiovascular malformations (CVMs) in Nevada's state-wide maternal population receiving prenatal care.

Methods: We queried our databases for those with significant CVMs diagnosed pre- or postnatally between May 1, 2021, and April 30, 2024. We defined CVMs as those that required, would have required, or will likely require a therapeutic procedure in the first 12 months.

The Northern Antarctic Peninsula (NAP) and the West Antarctic Ice Sheet (WAIS) are likely to respond rapidly to climate changes by increasing the collapse of peripheral ice shelves and the number of days above 0 °C. These facts make this region a representative hotspot of the global sea level rise and the location of one of the global climate tipping points (thresholds in the Earth system whose changes may become irreversible, if exceeded). Understanding the climate evolution of the NAP, based on past evidences, may help infer its future scenario.
