[Review and update of the SENPE-SEDOM-SEEN consensus document on the coding of hospital malnutrition].

The concept of "disease related malnutrition" (DRM) is far from the concept of malnutrition classically diagnosed in public health, which is determined by socio-demographic factors. In 2008, the Spanish Society of Clinical Nutrition and Metabolism (SENPE) and the Spanish Society of Medical Documentation (SEDOM) published a consensus defining more precisely the types of malnutrition seen in hospitals and their corresponding coding. Changes in the International Classification of Diseases (ICD) and the evolution of clinical information have made it necessary to revise and update this consensus in order to establish new criteria to guide the recording and coding of diagnoses of malnutrition in the field of hospital care, thus facilitating the work of both clinicians and coders and improving the visibility of DRE, by adapting from the clinical diagnoses of undernutrition based on the GLIM criteria (Global Leadership Initiative on Malnutrition) proposed by the scientific societies to the current codes proposed by ICD-10-ES.

Healthcare resource utilization among critically-ill COVID-19 survivors: results from the NUTRICOVID study.

Background: critically ill patients admitted to the intensive care unit (ICU) are often associated with malnutrition and nutrition therapy is recommended. Previous studies on COVID-19 focused on the recovery of critically ill patients after hospital discharge; however, there are limited data on healthcare resource utilization (HRU) after discharge. Aims: to describe and analyze the HRU and nutritional status of COVID-19 patients during hospitalization and one year after discharge.

Side-Effects on the Renal function of Cytoreductive Surgery with Hyperthermic Intraperitoneal Chemotherapy.

Acute kidney injury (AKI) is a frequent complication in patients undergo-ing cytoreductive surgery (CRS) with hyperthermic intraperitoneal chemotherapy (HIPEC) due to a combination of several factors: increased intra-abdominal pressure, heat stress and drug tox-icity. Patients admitted to Intensive Care Unit after CRS and HIPEC during 129 months. Data recorded were: demographic characteristics; severity of illness, haematology and basic chemistry panels (renal function and electrolytes), type of cancer and extension, HIPEC drug and temperature, fluid balance, ICU and hospital stay and mortality.

Respiratory Complications in the Immediate Postoperative Period after Cytoreductive Surgery and Hyperthermic Intraperitoneal Chemotherapy Nowadays: An Observational Study.

Background And Objectives: Several respiratory complications have been described after cytoreductive surgery (CRS) and hyperthermic intraperitoneal chemotherapy (HIPEC).

Materials And Methods: Patients admitted to intensive care unit (ICU) after CRS and HIPEC during 10 years.

Data Recorded Were: Demographic characteristics; severity of illness; complete blood sample; chest radiographs; type of cancer and extension; HIPEC drug and temperature; ICU and hospital stay; and mortality.

Retrospective study assessing the role of the androgen receptor in clear cell renal cell cancer patients treated with VEGFR inhibitors in monotherapy.

Background And Purpose: Despite that incorporating antiangiogenic in combination with immune-checkpoint inhibitors as the standard first-line treatment for advanced clear cell renal cell cancer (ccRCC) yields promising outcomes, these regimens often lead to significant toxicity. However, a subgroup of patients has shown responsiveness to VEGFR tyrosine-kinase inhibitors (TKIs) in monotherapy, leading to the question of whether employing combination therapies can significantly enhance overall survival in all patients over monotherapy. Thus, we aim to identify gene expression signatures that can predict TKI response within subpopulations that might benefit from single-agent therapies, to minimize unnecessary exposure to combination therapies and their associated toxicities, as well as to discover new potential therapeutic targets to improve ccRCC treatment.

[Translated article] Expert Recommendations from the AEDV on Legal Aspects Surrounding the Management of Sexually Transmitted Diseases.

The incidence of sexually transmitted diseases has been on the rise in our setting for decades. These infections represent not only an individual problem, but also a problem of public health. Therefore, the management of STDs involves reducing community incidence, which means that common issues in the clinical practice such as failure to attend may become a more complex problem, which adds to the difficult and delicate task of locating sexual contacts that would benefit from screening and the appropriate treatment.

Spanish catheter ablation registry. 23rd official report of the Heart Rhythm Association of the Spanish Society of Cardiology (2023).

Introduction And Objectives: We report the results of the 2023 Spanish catheter ablation registry.

Methods: Procedural data were collected and incorporated into the REDCap platform by all participating centers through a specific form.

Results: There were 104 participating centers in 2023 compared with 103 in 2022.

Fight Retinal Blindness SPAIN. Report 3: clinical outcomes of vascular endothelial growth factor inhibitors in low vision eyes with neovascular age-related macular degeneration. A national database study.

Objectives: To compare visual outcomes for low vision eyes (LVE) (<35 letters LogMAR or <20/200 Snellen) versus non-low vision eyes (NLVE) (>35 letters LogMAR or >20/200 Snellen) at the time of the first injection in a clinical practice setting.

Methods: Subgroup analysis of a multicenter national database of treatment- naïve eyes neovascular age related macular degeneration (nAMD) treated with anti-VEGF intravitreal injections divided into LVE and NLVE. Demographics, visual acuity (VA) at baseline and subsequent timepoints (12, 24, and 36 months), number of injections and visits data were collected using a validated web-based tool (Fight Retinal Blindness!).

Robotic and Laparoscopic Adrenalectomy for Pheochromocytoma: An International Multicenter Study.

Background And Objective: Robotic adrenalectomy (RA) has attracted interest as an alternative to laparoscopic adrenalectomy (LA) for patients with pheochromocytoma, although its beneficial effects are uncertain. Our aim was to compare RA and LA outcomes for these patients.

Methods: Data for patients who underwent RA or LA for pheochromocytoma in 46 international centers between 2012 and 2022 were reviewed.

Intestinal perforation as a form of presentation of a small bowel calcifying fibrous tumor.

Calcifying fibrous tumor (CFT) is a rare, benign, mesenchymal tumor. It has a slight female predominance, and it can appear in any range of age. It can be in the extremities, neck, and gastrointestinal tract, but it has also been described in other locations.

Efficacy and safety of colistin plus beta-lactams for bone and joint infection caused by fluoroquinolone-resistant gram-negative bacilli: a prospective multicenter study.

Objectives: The prognosis of bone and joint infections (BJI) caused by Gram-negative bacilli (GNB) worsens significantly in the face of fluoroquinolone-resistance. In this setting, scarce pre-clinical and clinical reports suggest that intravenous beta-lactams plus colistin may improve outcome. Our aim was to assess the efficacy and safety of this treatment in a well-characterized prospective cohort.

Lung immune prognostic index (LIPI) as a prognostic factor in patients with extensive-stage small cell lung cancer treated with first-line chemoimmunotherapy.

Introduction: The lung immune prognostic index (LIPI) is a biomarker that combines the lactate dehydrogenase (LDH) value and the derived neutrophil/lymphocyte ratio (dNLR). Its prognostic ability has been reported in non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) with immunotherapy. In the context of extensive-stage small cell lung cancer (ES-SCLC) with chemoimmunotherapy, its role remains to be determined.

PROFUGO study protocol: Predictive model for the early diagnosis of anastomotic leak after esophagectomy and gastrectomy.

In esophagogastric surgery, the appearance of an anastomotic leak is the most feared complication. Early diagnosis is important for optimal management and successful resolution. For this reason, different studies have investigated the value of the use of markers to predict possible postoperative complications.
