Objetivo: Estimar el riesgo de morir por SARS-CoV-2 en el periodo febrero de 2020 a junio de 2022, en función de las desigualdades socioterritoriales existentes en la Ciudad de México. Material y métodos. Análisis retrospectivo de los datos de defunciones por SARS-CoV-2 en la población de la Ciudad de México entre febrero de 2020 y junio de 2022, según la colonia de residencia clasificada en muy bajo, bajo, medio, alto y muy alto desarrollo social, a partir del Índice de Desarrollo Social (IDS) propuesto por el Consejo de Evaluación de la Ciudad de México.
Resultados: Las defunciones por Covid-19 en las colonias con muy bajo y bajo desarrollo social representaron casi la mitad de los fallecimientos. La población residente en los territorios con peores condiciones socioterritoriales falleció, en promedio, 10 años más joven que la del estrato con mejor IDS.
Conclusiones: Las diferencias en el riesgo de morir por SARS-CoV-2 se asociaron a las condiciones socioterritoriales en las que residía la población fallecida. El riesgo de muerte por SARS-CoV-2 fue más alto para las personas residentes en colonias con muy bajo y bajo IDS. Estas diferencias se redujeron a partir de la tercera ola, lo que posiblemente se deba al inicio de la vacunación masiva en la Ciudad de México.

Unlabelled: A collateral effect of the COVID-19 pandemic has been the discontinuity of treatments, a highly sensitive situation for chronic patients.
Aim: to describe the factors associated with discontinuing treatments in chronic patients over 18 years old residing in Chile during the COVID-19 pandemic.
Methods: A secondary analysis of the database of the MOVID-IMPACT-C survey, which corresponds to a cross-sectional study with national urban representativeness, was carried out in 2020.

In this work, an electrochemical biosensor is prepared based on few-layer bismuthene hexagons (FLBHs) and a water-soluble BODIPY (BDP) derivative (BDP-NaSO) for early infection diagnosis. In particular, the detection in advance of a virus sequence in nasopharyngeal swab samples was developed. The combination of the FLBHs and BDP-NaSO facilitates the direct, sensitive, and specific detection of gene viruses without the need for any prior amplification step.

Objective: The objective of the study was to analyse possible changes in antibiotic policy with ceftazidime-avibactam during the SARS-CoV-2 pandemic in an Intensive Care Unit (ICU) to determine patient mortality 28 days after initiation of antimicrobial therapy and to describe the microorganisms that most frequently colonise critically ill patients.
Material And Method: Observational, single-centre, cohort study that included patients on treatment with ceftazidime-avibactam in ICU between March 2020 and September 2021. Demographic (age, sex), microbiological (colonisation, microorganisms isolated in blood cultures), pharmacotherapeutic (duration of treatment with ceftazidime-avibactam, antimicrobials used in synergy with ceftazidime-avibactam) and clinical (mortality, length of hospital stay and comorbidities) variables were collected.

Objective: To develop and validate a clinical prediction model aimed at improving resource management and determining the prognosis of patients hospitalized with COVID-19.
Materials And Methods: A retrospective, single-center cohort study conducted at the University Hospital of Guadalajara, including 1,043 patients hospitalized with COVID-19 between March and May 2020. Data were extracted from hospital records and anonymized.

Background: Understanding pandemic-related reductions and subsequent recovery of cardiovascular testing in Asia is important for guiding regional public health efforts.
Objectives: This study sought to evaluate the recovery of cardiovascular testing in Asia 1 year into the COVID-19 pandemic.
Methods: In this subanalysis of a worldwide survey on the impact of COVID-19 on cardiovascular diagnostic care in April 2020 and April 2021, recovery of testing volume in Asia was compared among subregions, World Bank income groups and imaging modalities.
