La década de 1990. Un balance crítico acerca del binomio televisión-familia.

El propósito de este documento es hacer una revisión crítica en torno a las investigación que se han logrado localizar acerca del tema Televisión y Familia, tomando como terreno territorial de selección a América Latina y como base temporal los documentos editados durante la década de los noventas. Tras este análisis en donde se revisan instrumentos metodológicos y conceptuales. Una de las reflexiones finales de este documento es que los autores entienden que cada día hay un mayor convencimiento de la importancia que tiene el incorporar aportaciones venidas de otras disciplinas como la sociología, antropología, psicología, derecho, demografía, historia, economía y ciencia política; además de que se ha renunciado a las teorías de largo alcance y ahora se está obligado a construir pequeños marcos teóricos para temas y objetos claramente delimitados y contextualizados.p.43-52

COVID-19 in hospitalized HIV-positive and HIV-negative patients : A matched study

CatedresObjectives: We compared the characteristics and clinical outcomes of hospitalized individuals with COVID-19 with [people with HIV (PWH)] and without (non-PWH) HIV co-infection in Spain during the first wave of the pandemic. Methods: This was a retrospective matched cohort study. People with HIV were identified by reviewing clinical records and laboratory registries of 10 922 patients in active-follow-up within the Spanish HIV Research Network (CoRIS) up to 30 June 2020. Each hospitalized PWH was matched with five non-PWH of the same age and sex randomly selected from COVID-19@Spain, a multicentre cohort of 4035 patients hospitalized with confirmed COVID-19. The main outcome was all-cause in-hospital mortality. Results: Forty-five PWH with PCR-confirmed COVID-19 were identified in CoRIS, 21 of whom were hospitalized. A total of 105 age/sex-matched controls were selected from the COVID-19@Spain cohort. The median age in both groups was 53 (Q1-Q3, 46-56) years, and 90.5% were men. In PWH, 19.1% were injecting drug users, 95.2% were on antiretroviral therapy, 94.4% had HIV-RNA < 50 copies/mL, and the median (Q1-Q3) CD4 count was 595 (349-798) cells/μL. No statistically significant differences were found between PWH and non-PWH in number of comorbidities, presenting signs and symptoms, laboratory parameters, radiology findings and severity scores on admission. Corticosteroids were administered to 33.3% and 27.4% of PWH and non-PWH, respectively (P = 0.580). Deaths during admission were documented in two (9.5%) PWH and 12 (11.4%) non-PWH (P = 0.800). Conclusions: Our findings suggest that well-controlled HIV infection does not modify the clinical presentation or worsen clinical outcomes of COVID-19 hospitalization
