ABSTRACT
Resumen La Sociedad Chilena de Infectología, a través de su Comité de Infecciones Neonatales, en conjunto con la Sociedad Chilena de Obstetricia y Ginecología, proponen un documento de diagnóstico y manejo de la infección por citomegalovirus (CMV) en la mujer embarazada y el recién nacido. Esta guía aborda el manejo de la infección en el binomio, su enfrentamiento diagnóstico y terapéutico, orientado al equipo de salud que atiende a mujeres embarazadas y recién nacidos con infección por CMV en Chile. Considera la situación epidemiológica global y latinoamericana, con recomendaciones para la evaluación clínica y de laboratorio; establece criterios de diagnóstico, propone enfoques terapéuticos de acuerdo a la situación clínica, analiza las medidas de prevención y establece una propuesta nacional para el seguimiento de esta enfermedad. Se ha puesto especial énfasis en entregar, de forma práctica, y con la mayor evidencia posible, las recomendaciones para el manejo del binomio con infección por CMV.
Abstract The Chilean Society of Infectology, through its Neonatal Infections Committee in conjunction with the Chilean Society of Obstetrics and Gynecology, propose a document for the Diagnosis and Management of Cytomegalovirus Infection in Pregnancy and Newborn. This guideline suggests the management of mother and child infection, its diagnostic and therapeutic options. Considers the global and Latin American epidemiology, with recommendations for clinical and laboratory evaluation, diagnostic criteria, therapeutic approaches according to the clinical situation, analyzes prevention measures and establishes a national proposal for monitoring this disease.

Clinical studies have suggested a survival benefit in ovarian cancer patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus taking metformin, however the mechanism by which diabetic concentrations of metformin could deliver this effect is still poorly understood. Platelets not only represent an important reservoir of growth factors and angiogenic regulators, they are also known to participate in the tumor microenvironment implicated in tumor growth and dissemination. Herein, we investigated if diabetic concentrations of metformin could impinge upon the previously reported observation that platelet induces an increase in the tube forming capacity of endothelial cells (angiogenesis) and upon ovarian cancer cell aggressiveness. We demonstrate that metformin inhibits the increase in angiogenesis brought about by platelets in a mechanism that did not alter endothelial cell migration. In ovarian cancer cell lines and primary cultured cancer cells isolated from the ascitic fluid of ovarian cancer patients, we assessed the effect of combinations of platelets and metformin upon angiogenesis, migration, invasion and cancer sphere formation. The enhancement of each of these parameters by platelets was abrogated by the present of metformin in the vast majority of cancer cell cultures tested. Neither metformin nor platelets altered proliferation; however, metformin inhibited the increase in phosphorylation of focal adhesion kinase induced by platelets. We present the first evidence suggesting that concentrations of metformin present in diabetic patients may reduce the actions of platelets upon both endothelial cells and cancer cell survival and dissemination.
