Idiopathic stenosis of foramina of Monro in an asymptomatic adult patient: a rare entity radiologists should be aware of.

Bilateral Adult Idiopathic Oclussion of Foramen of Monro is a rare entity, with less than 22 cases published in the literature so far, all of them symptomatic. When the symptoms require it, the current first-line treatment is endoscopic foraminoplasty, sometimes associated with septum pellucidum fenestration, although some authors consider that a more conservative treatment in paucisymptomatic patients. We report the case of an idiopathic biventricular hydrocephalus found incidentally in an asymptomatic 42-year-old female with temporomandibular joint disfunction.

[Results of the breast cancer population screening circuit at the San Carlos Clinical Hospital.].

Objective: The objective of the study was to compare the time difference between diagnose and treatment with relation to switching protocols in screening program, DEPRECAM; and to analyze the screening program over our sample.

Methods: It is a retrospective study involving 173 patients with two no time concurrent clinical cohorts referred from DEPRECAM program to San Carlos Clinic Hospital (HCSC) between March 2017 and January 2019. It was compared the time differences between the group forwarded to Breast Pathology service (Group A; n=92) and the group directly forwarded to Radiology department (Group B; n=81), using the non-parametric Mann-Whitney U test, estimating the difference of the means together with its 95% confidence interval.

CD133 + cell infusion in patients with colorectal liver metastases going to be submitted to a major liver resection (CELLCOL): A randomized open label clinical trial.

Background: Treatment of liver metastases of colorectal carcinoma is surgical resection. However, only 10-15% of the patients in this context will be candidate for curative resection arising other 10-13% after response to neoadyuvant chemotherapy. In order to perform the liver metastases surgery, it is necessary to have a sufficient remnant liver volume (RLV) which allows maintaining an optimal liver function after resection.

[Assessment and nutritional treatment in the oncogeriatric patient. Differential aspects].

The incidence of cancer increases as age progresses. With aging, and with a chronic disease such as cancer, the prevalence of disease-related malnutrition (DRE), sarcopenia, cachexia and frailty increases. These are associated with mortality, toxicity due to antineoplastic treatment and post-surgical complications.

VAV3 rs7528153 and VAV3-AS1 rs1185222 polymorphisms are associated with an increased risk of developing hypertension.

The aetiology of essential hypertension is complex and involves both environmental and genetic factors. Approximately 30% of the inter-individual variability in blood pressure is genetically determined. It has been shown that numerous vasoconstrictors stimulate RhoA in local populations of vascular SMCs that, in turn, promote localised constriction of arterial blood vessels and elevations in blood pressure.

[Management of neurourological patients during the COVID-19 pandemic.].

 To report the recommendations of an expert panel to reorganize Neurourology units and to prioritize examinations and both conservative and surgical treatments during the COVID-19 pandemic. MATERIALS AND METHODS: Non-systematic review of the literature and national experts' opinion summarizing the recommendations in the diagnosis, management, and follow-up of neurourological patients during the COVID-19 pandemic. A modified nominal group technique was used due to extraordinary meeting and mobility restrictions during COVID-19 pandemic.

Utility of lateral flow tests in SARS-CoV-2 infection monitorization.

Objective: The diagnosis of SARS-CoV-2 infection is crucial for medical and public health reasons, to allow the best treatment of cases and the best control of the pandemic. Serology testing allows for the detection of asymptomatic infections and 19-COVID cases once the virus has been cleared. We analyzed the usefulness of the SARS-CoV-2 rapid test of Autobio and tried to correlate its pattern with the severity of COVID19 infection.

Mental illness and social exclusion: assessment of the risk of violence after release.

Objectives: To examine the predictive validity of the HCR-20 (The Historical Clinical Risk Management-20) to predict future violent incidents in a representative sample of patients with severe mental disorders and with a history of previous admission to prison, who after release are in a situation of extreme social exclusion.

Material And Method: The study sample was selected from the 235 patients treated by the Mental Health Street Team of Madrid (ECASAM) from June 2014 to June 2017, including those with a previous history of a previous internment in a penitentiary (about which, the HCR-20 was completed).

Results: Of the 44 patients included, 29.

Physical exam in the evaluation of bladder pain syndrome (BPS): A key component for differential diagnosis.

Objectives: To describe in more detail the usual clinical practice regarding physical examination (PE) in Bladder Pain Syndrome (BPS) and to evaluate if the performance of PE relates to changes in severity of symptoms and in Health Related Quality of Life (HRQoL).

Material And Methods: Epidemiological, observational, national and multicentric study that included 319 patients with BPS (79 of new diagnosis and 240 in follow-up). Demographic and clinical data were collected.

Objectives: This study sought to determine the incidence, clinical impact, and changes over time of mitral regurgitation (MR) in patients with low-flow, low-gradient aortic stenosis (LFLG-AS) undergoing transcatheter aortic valve replacement (TAVR).

Background: Few data exist on the clinical impact and changes in severity over time of MR in patients with LFLG-AS undergoing TAVR.

Methods: A total of 308 TAVR candidates with LFLG-AS were included.

Short- and Long-Term Prognosis of Patients With Takotsubo Syndrome Based on Different Triggers: Importance of the Physical Nature.

Background Takotsubo syndrome (TTS) is an acute reversible heart condition initially believed to represent a benign pathology attributable to its self-limiting clinical course; however, little is known about its prognosis based on different triggers. This study compared short- and long-term outcomes between TTS based on different triggers, focusing on various physical triggering events. Methods and Results We analyzed patients with a definitive TTS diagnosis recruited for the Spanish National Registry on TTS (RETAKO [Registry on Takotsubo Syndrome]).

Objectives: To determine the risk factors of recurrent urinary infections (rUTIs) in patients with Multiple Sclerosis (MS).

Methods: A retrospective cohort study was conducted including 114 patients with MS, 84 women (74%) and 30 men (26%), with a mean age of 49. They underwent videourodynamic study and selective sphincter electromyography due to urinary symptoms (LUTS).

HTLV-1 infection: An emerging risk. Pathogenesis, epidemiology, diagnosis and associated diseases.

The Human T-Lymphotropic Virus type 1 (HTLV-1) affects up to 10 million people worldwide. It is directly associated to one of the most aggressive T cell malignancies: Adult T Cell Leukemia-Lymphoma (ATLL) and a progressive neurological disorder, Tropical Spastic Paraparesis/ HTLV-1 Associated Myelopathy (TSP/HAM). Also, infected patients tend to have more severe forms of infectious diseases such as Strongyloidiasis and Tuberculosis.

[Fusion biopsy. Analysis of fusion software platforms.].

Unlabelled: Transrectal ultrasound has been a diagnostic method for diagnosis of prostate cancer for more than 30 years. It increased its options after the incorporation of MRI in the 90s. The association of real-time ultrasound with anatomical and functional data of multiparametric magnetic resonance imaging (mpMRI) has changed the prostate cancer scenario and presumably will modify the therapeutic alternatives.
