RESUMO
Newborn Screening Programs (NSP) in Spain were born in the city of Granada in 1968. Till the 1980s, they were developed around the so-called "National Plan for Preventing Subnormality", covering up to 30% of the Spanish newborns. From 1982, when the health system management was transferred to the different autonomous regions, the NSP began to expand, and the bases to transform them into an organized and multidisciplinary activity, integrated and coordinated from the National Health System were settled. Despite this expansion, it is not until the 1990s when their coverage reaches almost 100% newborns in Spain. NSP grew up asymmetrically across the different autonomous regions. In 2005 and 2006 the scientific societies SEQC (Spanish Society of Clinical Chemistry) and AECNE (Spanish Society of Newborn Screening), coordinated by the Health Promotion Area of the General Directorate of Public Health, gathered together the necessary information to elaborate a report on the NSP in Spain addressed to the Interterritorial Council of the National Health System. In July 2013, that Council approved the seven diseases that should be part of each region newborn screening panel, being the first step towards the NSP harmonization in Spain. Currently, the NSP include between 8 and 29 diseases in their panels, thus more still more efforts are needed in order to achieve a higher uniformity.
Los Programas de Cribado Neonatal (PCN) nacen en España en Granada en el año 1968. Posteriormente, y hasta los años 80, se fueron desarrollando en torno al llamado "Plan Nacional de Prevención de la Subnormalidad" con una cobertura cercana al 30% de los recién nacidos españoles. A partir de 1982, con el inicio de la gestión de la sanidad a las comunidades autónomas (CCAA), los PCN se expandieron y se comenzaron a sentar las bases para que éstos se convirtieran en una actividad organizada y multidisciplinar, integrados y coordinados desde el Sistema de Salud. A pesar de dicha expansión no es hasta el inicio de la década de los 90 cuando se consigue una cobertura próxima al 100% de los RN en España. Los PCN fueron creciendo de forma muy asimétrica en las diferentes CCAA y en los años 2005 y 2006 las Sociedades Científicas SEQC (Sociedad Española de Química Clínica) y AECNE (Asociación Española de Cribado Neonatal), con la coordinación del Área de Promoción de la Salud de la Dirección General de Salud Pública, recopilaron la información y elaboraron un informe, sobre los PCN en España para el Consejo Interterritorial del sistema Nacional de Salud (CISNS). En julio de 2013 este Consejo aprobó las siete enfermedades que debían formar parte del panel de detección de los PCN territoriales, primer paso hacia la armonización de estos programas. Actualmente, los PCN incluyen entre 8 y 29 enfermedades por lo que es necesario seguir trabajando para conseguir una mayor uniformidad.

The effects of doxazosin on expression of CD62 (P-selectin) and phosphatidylserine on platelet membrane and platelet calcium flux were studied in 50 uncomplicated essential hypertensive patients (World Health Organization stages 1-2) and 80 normotensive control subjects, matched for age, sex, and cardiovascular risk factors. Hypertensive patients showed greater in vivo platelet activation at baseline than control patients (percentage of CD62-positive platelets, 4.1+/-2.2% versus 2.4+/-1.5%, p<0.001; percentage of phosphatidylserine-positive platelets, 0.8+/-0.5% versus 0.5+/-0.3%, p<0.001). Increased platelet activation was associated with significant changes in the mobilization of free intraplatelet calcium, evaluated by a whole blood flow cytometric kinetic method. With this method, an arbitrary Ca(2+) mobilization index was defined as the ratio of cytoplasmic free calcium before activation with thrombin to the slope of the calcium removal rate following the action of the agonist. This index was significantly higher in untreated hypertensive patients than in normotensive controls (0.12+/-0.06 versus 0.05+/-0.08, p<0.001). Treatment of hypertensive patients with doxazosin gastrointestinal therapeutic system (4 mg/day as a single dose) for 2 months normalized both platelet activation and Ca(2+) mobilization. Changes in the expression of CD62 and phosphatidylserine in the platelet membrane after treatment with doxazosin gastrointestinal therapeutic system may be related to normalization of the kinetics of cytoplasmic free Ca(2+). Normalization of platelet activation may represent an additional beneficial effect to the known antihypertensive action of doxazosin gastrointestinal therapeutic system.
