ABSTRACT

La Sarcoidosis es una enfermedad multisistémica que se caracteriza histológicamente por existencia de granulomas epiteliodes sin necrosis caseosa. Laafectación cutánea aparece en un 20-35% de los pacientes con sarcoidosis sistémica pero también puede aparecer como única manifestación de laenfermedad. Describimos un paciente afecto de sarcoidosis cutánea sin afectación sistémica. Las lesiones cutáneas no respondieron tras varios tratamientostópicos y sistémicos y finalmente respondieron a metotrexato. Revisamos las diferentes opciones en el tratamiento de la sarcoidosis cutánea (AU)

ABSTRACT

Propósito. La hipertensión arterial (HTA) sigue siendo un problema sanitario de primer orden por su alta prevalencia, morbimortalidad y alto coste económico, lo que hace necesario un método que permita una mejor gestión de la misma. Desde esta perspectiva hemos planteado un trabajo para la selección de los indicadores de calidad mínimos (ICM) para evaluar, controlar y seguir adecuadamente al paciente hipertenso y cuya supervisión permita evaluar la calidad asistencial que recibe la población hipertensa. Material y métodos. Tras definir el problema, revisar la bibliografía y consultar a expertos en hipertensión, la selección de indicadores se realizó a partir de las principales guías nacionales e internacionales de hipertensión. Para la selección de los ICM utilizamos tres criterios: cumplir requisitos que definen un indicador de calidad, concordancia entre guías y evidencia científica y actualización en función del año de aparición en guía. Resultados. Inicialmente obtuvimos 113 indicadores potenciales; de entre ellos seleccionamos 32 ICM que incluían elementos de anamnesis, exploración física, exploraciones complementarias y tratamiento (de primera visita y visita anual). Conclusiones. La intervención mediante la definición de ICM en HTA y la medición de la cumplimentación de los mismos debe ser el primer paso para el control del paciente hipertenso en Atención Primaria (AU)

ABSTRACT

Our aim was to establish the prevalence of Raynaud's phenomenon in a general practice in the east of Spain and compare our results with those of other studies performed in geographical areas with similar climatic characteristics. Two hundred and seventy-six subjects visiting their general practitioner for whatever reason were randomly selected from a particular area of the city of Valencia. Each was interviewed by their GP following the guidelines of a structured questionnaire to establish whether they had Raynaud's phenomenon or not. There were 205 women and 71 men. The mean age was 54.43, with a standard deviation of 18.22. Raynaud's phenomenon was present in nine subjects, two men and seven women, with a prevalence of 2.8% and 3.4%, respectively. Of the nine positives (mean age 60.56 years, standard deviation 16.38), two were diagnosed with hypertension and two with migraine. None of them usually took Raynaud's phenomenon-related drugs or performed physical exercise. No patient had a family history of Raynaud's phenomenon or had already been diagnosed with it. All the positive males were affected only by the pallor stage. This study shows lower prevalences than those of other studies performed in different geographical areas with similar climatic conditions.

ABSTRACT

The Sweet syndrome or acute febrile neutrophilic dermatosis is a well characterized cutaneous disease from a clinical and histological point of view and is frequently associated with systemic diseases. Prognosis is favorable with good response to corticoid therapy. A well documented case of Sweet syndrome associated with an outbreak of Crohn's disease with peculiar good therapeutic response is reported.
