МИГРАНТЫ
ОСНОВНЫЕ ЗАТРОНУТЫЕ ГРУППЫ НАСЕЛЕНИЯ. КРАТКОЕ РУКОВОДСТВО.
Mapping Report - Catalonia (Spain).
Hесмотря на многочисленные международные договоры и обязательства по защите прав мигрантов в области здравоохранения, эта ключевая затронутая группа населения п... прежнему испытывает серьезные затруднения в доступе к лечению от туберкулеза. Миграция вызвана рядом сложных экономических, социальных, политических и экологических факторов и является определяющим элементом плохого здоровья, а результаты лечения мигрантов находятся под воздействием различных измерений миграционного процесса.

Objetivo. Identificar os fatores associados ao êxito do tratamento da tuberculose multirresistente (TBMR) relacionados ao paciente e à equipe de saúde nos seis municípios da Colômbia com o maior número de casos. Métodos. Mediante regresiones logísticas... bifactorial y multifactorial se analizó la asociación entre el tratamiento exitoso (curación o cumplimiento del tratamiento) y las características de los pacientes, y de los médicos, profesionales de enfermería y psicólogos vinculados al tratamiento. Se exploró la importancia del conocimiento en el manejo de los casos de TB-MDR mediante grupos focales con esos profesionales.

BackgroundClimate change is one of the great challenges of our time. The consequences of climate change on exposed biological subjects, as well as on vulnerable societies, are a concern for the entire scientific community. Rising temperatures, heat waves, floods, tornadoes, hurricanes, droughts, fir...es, loss of forest, and glaciers, along with disappearance of rivers and desertification, can directly and indirectly cause human pathologies that are physical and mental.

COVID-19 has had an unprecedented impact on the cascade-of-care among PLWH in LAC. There is a need for
longitudinal studies that assess clinic implication of these pandemic interactions in LAC.
Los objetivos de las guías son brindar directrices para optimizar el cuidado de la mayoría de los pacientes afectados por los VHB y VHC. Sin embargo, no reemplazan el criterio médico en la valoración y abordaje del paciente individual. En situaciones especiales, el mejor enfoque en el diagnóst...ico y tratamiento puede diferir de la presente guía, y deben basarse en el análisis del caso individual
por expertos en el área.

Leishmaniases are a group of diseases of zoonotic importance caused by over 20 species of protozoa of the genus Leishmania, in which domestic dogs are considered to be the main reservoir for the disease. However, the involvement of other vertebrates as reservoirs for these parasites has also been in...vestigated. Therefore, the objective of the present study was to carry out a systematic review with meta-analysis on occurrences of leishmaniasis in equids. The case reports described animals with cutaneous symptoms of leishmaniasis (papules, nodules, ulcers or crusts) that regressed spontaneously, located mainly on the head and limbs, from which three species of protozoa were identified in the lesions: Leishmania braziliensis, Leishmania infantum and Leishmania siamensis. In turn, the meta-analysis showed a combined prevalence of 25%, although with high heterogeneity among the studies, which was attributed to the use of different methods for diagnosing the disease. Leishmaniasis in equids is a benign disease but it should be included in the differential diagnosis of cutaneous diseases among these species. Seroepidemiological studies are important in investigating and monitoring suspected exposure of these hosts to the parasite, especially in endemic areas. However, there is also a need to standardize diagnostic methods.
