Relación entre niveles de lípidos en sangre y el desarrollo de Alzhéimer (neurosciencenews.com)
 

Mientras que el colesterol LDL pequeño y denso —vinculado a enfermedades cardíacas— se asoció con un mayor riesgo de Alzheimer, otros marcadores como ApoB48 se vincularon con un riesgo reducido.

Sorprendentemente, incluso niveles bajos de colesterol HDL “bueno” se asociaron con inferior riesgo de demencia en este estudio. Estos hallazgos sugieren que el metabolismo de los lípidos puede desempeñar diferentes funciones en la salud del corazón y el cerebro, y que los perfiles lipídicos en sangre podrían ayudar a predecir o incluso prevenir el Alzheimer. Existe una tendencia general a lo largo del tiempo de menor incidencia de la enfermedad de Alzheimer y otras demencias en los EE. UU. y otros países de mayores ingresos que se atribuyen, al menos parcialmente, a una mejor gestión de los factores de riesgo cardiovascular.

rapid literature review of the impact of penicillin allergy on antibiotic resistance (academic.oup.com)
 

Patients who have penA labels are treated with non-penicillin antibiotics and receive more antibiotics when compared with patients without penA after formal allergy assessments, >90% of people with a penA label are found not to be allergic Antimicrobial stewardship policies now advocate assessment to identify and remove incorrect penA labels

Eighteen studies compared AMR outcomes in participants with and without penA, and the rest investigated the impact of beta-lactam allergy or any antibiotic allergy on AMR outcomes PenA labels were also associated with vancomycin-resistant enterococci (three of five studies)

There was limited evidence on the impact of penA on extended-spectrum beta-lactamase-producing Enterobacterales and resistant Streptococcus pneumoniae.

Effectiveness and safety of methods to prevent bloodstream and other Infections and noninfectious complications associated with peripherally inserted central catheters. (academic.oup.com)
 

Stronger COE showed that ultrasound-guided catheter insertion reduced phlebitis/thrombophlebitis in adults compared with non–ultrasound-guided (5 RCTs; risk ratio [RR], 0.19; 95% credible interval, .08–.50); silicone catheters increased phlebitis/thrombophlebitis compared with nonsilicone (1 RCT; RR, 2.00; 95% confidence interval [CI], 1.26–3.17)

Ultrasound-guided catheter insertion and nonsilicone catheters effectively prevented PICC complications. The evidence for other comparisons was too uncertain to draw conclusions,
