    Skin and soft tissue infections (SSTI) represent the third leading cause of infectious disease consultation for medical services after respiratory and urinary tract infections. This document generates a clinical practice guideline with 38 recommendations based on evidence, graduated under the SIGN system for the diagnosis and treatment for SSTI infections in adult patients in Colombia, following a process of adaptation of guidelines published, and the systematic search and synthesis of literature for the updating of scientific evidence. In addition, a consensus of experts was made for the evaluation of the potential barriers for the implementation of the recommendations and the evaluation of the degree of recommendation in the local context. © 2019 Asociacion Colombiana de Infectologia.

    Efecto del entrenamiento funcional sobre los niveles de presión arterial sistólica: un ensayo clínico con asignación al azar

    No full text
    En el presente trabajo se describe la incidencia de ocho semanas de actividad física (entrenamiento funcional comparado con un entrenamiento aeróbico continuo) sobre los niveles de presión arterial sistólica en un grupo de mujeres hipertensas controladas en edades no mayores a los 65 años de la comuna 11 de la ciudad de Medellín. Antes y después del periodo de intervención se determinaron los niveles de presión arterial de la población. Las variables evaluadas fueron el peso, talla, presión arterial sistólica, presión arterial diastólica y perímetro abdominal. Se realizaron pruebas de normalidad para determinar la distribución de las variables, indicando cómo se deben resumir de acuerdo a su distribución. Se aplicó la prueba Shapiro Wilkción con una muestra de 30 mujeres, para hallar el valor de P. Con relación al grupo A, en lo correspondiente a la presión arterial inicial comparado con la presión arterial final se obtuvo una reducción de 2mmhg PAS y 2,5 mmhg PAD. Esto a nivel de la variable intragrupo, lo cual se puede considerar algo positivo, lo logrado con esta investigación ya que a nivel investigativo hay muy pocas evidencias en materia de comparación de un entrenamiento funcional en la disminución de la presión arterial sistólica PAS.Lo que permite conocer de primera mano, la efectividad de implementar programas preventivos a favor de la HTA teniendo como componente los ejercicios funcionales. Es evidente la disminución de los valores en la variable Presión Arterial sistólica, la cual se denominó como dependiente, debido a que esta se vería modificada con la variable independiente entrenamiento funciona

    Acoustic Evidence of Shallow Gas Occurrences in the Offshore Sinú Fold Belt, Colombian Caribbean Sea

    High-resolution seismic analysis and bathymetry data, used in the Offshore Sinú Fold Belt (OSFB), have revealed seabed and sub-surface anomalies, which were probably caused by the presence of shallow gas within the sedimentary records. Shallow gas is widely detected by the frequent presence of anomalous acoustic reflections including acoustic blanking, enhanced reflections, acoustic plumes, pockmarks, and dome structures. More than 30 anomalies that occur within a subsurface depth of ~65 m were acoustically detected within an area of 1000 km2 on the continental shelf and upper continental slope, in water depths ranging from −20 to −1300 m. Moreover, a map with the spatial distribution of the gas occurrences is shown. A close relationship between the locally elevated seabed (dome structures), pockmarks, and acoustic blanking was found. Most of the active pockmarks may be closely related to the submarine path of the Uramita Fault, indicating that the gas occurrences are controlled by active faulting. The shallow gas occurrence was confirmed by the generation of authigenic carbonate and the occurrence of chemosymbiotic biological communities sampled in the area. Although there is an admixture of biogenic gas, it is believed that many of the features observed relate to thermogenic gas. The identification of these anomalies represents a useful basis for an assessment of marine geohazards and can serve as a hydrocarbon exploration tool

    Las infecciones de piel y tejidos blandos (IPTB) representan la tercera causa de consulta por enfermedad infecciosas a los servicios médicos, después de las infec- ciones respiratorias y urinarias. Se presenta una guía de práctica clínica (GPC) con 38 recomendaciones basadas en la evidencia, graduadas bajo el sistema SIGN, para el diagnóstico y tratamiento de pacientes adultos con IPTB en el contexto colombiano, posterior a un proceso de adaptación de GPC publicadas y la búsqueda sistemática y síntesis de literatura para la actualización de la evidencia científica. Además, se realizó un consenso de expertos para la evaluación de las potenciales barreras para la implementación de las recomendaciones y la evaluación del grado de recomendación en el contexto local.Q4Skin and soft tissue infections (SSTI) represent the third leading cause of infectious disease consultation for medical services after respiratory and urinary tract infections.
