Long-chain polyunsaturated fatty acids supplementation and sepsis: a systematic review and meta-analysis.

Background: Long chain polyunsaturated fatty acids (LCPUFAs) have proven to be essential for development in preterm infants and have been studied for their capacity to reduce inflammation and infection rates, including sepsis in enteral and parenteral nutrition. The aim of this review and meta-analysis is to gather the information available on this subject to determine if n-3 polyunsaturated fatty acids can reduce sepsis incidence in preterm infants.

Methods: This systematic review was conducted by searching in the databases MEDLINE (via PubMed), ISI-Web of Science, EMBASE, SCOPUS, SciELO, and Cochrane Library databases.

Antithrombotic Use Patterns in COVID-19 Patients from Spain: A Real-World Data Study.

Antithrombotics have been widely used to treat and prevent COVID-19-related thrombosis; however, studies on their use at population levels are limited. We aimed to describe antithrombotic use patterns during the pandemic in Spanish primary care and hospital-admitted patients with COVID-19. A real-world data study was performed.

Frailty assessment to individualize treatment in older patients with lymphoma.

Purpose: A study analyzing the application of a protocol of comprehensive geriatric assessment (CGA) in older patients with lymphoma was carried out to allow frailty-based patient classification and individualized treatment.

Methods: Lymphoma patients older than 70 years referred to the Geriatric Clinic at a tertiary hospital between May 2016 and March 2021 were included. The assessment protocol included comorbidity, polypharmacy, nutritional, functional, and mental status, geriatric syndromes, and life expectancy.

Thromboembolic Events in a Socio-Economically Disadvantaged Population with COVID-19 Admitted to a Medicalized Hotel in Madrid.

The social determinants of health (SDOH) of patients with COVID-19-related thrombosis have been scarcely explored. Our objective was to investigate the cases of thrombosis in a group of socially disadvantaged populations with COVID-19. We investigated the thrombotic events that occurred in a cohort of migrant and Spanish patients with COVID-19 that were admitted to a medicalized hotel in Madrid.

Cross-Cultural Adaption and Psychometric Evaluation of the German Craniofacial Pain and Disability Inventory (CF-PDI).

Background: The Craniofacial Pain and Disability Inventory (CF-PDI) is a cross-culturally adapted instrument designed from a biopsychosocial perspective to measure pain, disability, and function in orofacial head and neck pain with shown psychometric properties; however, the German cross-cultural adaption is lacking.

Objectives: To carry out a transcultural translation of CF-PDI into German and assess its psychometric properties in patients with painful temporomandibular disorders (TMD) with respect to construct and clinical validity, internal consistency and reproducibility.

Study Design: Multicenter, prospective, cross-sectional design.

Relationship between air pollution levels in Madrid and the natural history of idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis: severity and mortality.

Objective: We aimed to assess the relationship between major air pollutants and the natural history and mortality of idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis (IPF).

Methods: We conducted a retrospective cohort study from 2013 to 2019 among 52 patients with IPF from the pneumology department of a tertiary hospital. According to their geocoded residential address, each patient was assigned a mean concentration of carbon monoxide (CO), nitrogen dioxide, particulate matter 2.
