    La retinitis por citomegalovírus es una de las infecciones oculares oportunistas mås frecuente en los pacientes con SIDA con  cd4 bajo; sin tratamiento es inevitable la ceguera, la cual se manifiesta  en semanas o meses, debida a la afectación retiniana extensa, desprendimiento de retina o atrofia óptica.La sífilis es otra patología que se asocia a infección por VIH, se reporta sífilis  secundaria en mayor porcentaje de los casos; siendo la uveítis por sífilis  pleomórfica, se presenta en la etapa secundaria. Las manifestaciones oculares mås frecuentes ocurren en el segmento posterior, se presentan en un 80 % de los casos en pacientes con SIDA.Se presenta el reporte de caso por encontrarse coinfeccion de sífilis y citomegalovírus en un paciente en estadio SIDA.Palabras clave: SIDA, Panuveitis sifilítica, Citomegalovirus Ocular

    The PREDICTS project-Projecting Responses of Ecological Diversity In Changing Terrestrial Systems (www.predicts.org.uk)-has collated from published studies a large, reasonably representative database of comparable samples of biodiversity from multiple sites that differ in the nature or intensity of human impacts relating to land use. We have used this evidence base to develop global and regional statistical models of how local biodiversity responds to these measures. We describe and make freely available this 2016 release of the database, containing more than 3.2 million records sampled at over 26,000 locations and representing over 47,000 species. We outline how the database can help in answering a range of questions in ecology and conservation biology. To our knowledge, this is the largest and most geographically and taxonomically representative database of spatial comparisons of biodiversity that has been collated to date; it will be useful to researchers and international efforts wishing to model and understand the global status of biodiversity
