ABSTRACT
La enfermedad vascular cerebral (EVC) es una patología caracterizada por un déficit neurológico súbito, secundario a oclusión o ruptura de un vaso sanguíneo cerebral; se divide en isquémica o infarto cerebral (IC) y hemorrágica. La EVC es reconocida como la primera causa de discapacidad y la quinta causa de muerte en México, registrándose cerca de 170 mil casos nuevos al año. Existe amplia evidencia que demuestra una reducción en los desenlaces negativos, como muerte y discapacidad, al realizar intervenciones rápidas, incluyendo la administración de trombolisis intravenosa con rt-PA (activador tisular de plasminógeno recombinante) y trombectomía mecánica. La coordinación multidisciplinaria del equipo de salud y los cuidados efectivos de enfermería, son vitales durante todas las etapas de atención de la EVC. Esta revisión da a conocer un panorama general del manejo del infarto cerebral e identificar las intervenciones indispensables del profesional de enfermería realiza durante las etapas prehospitalarias, pretrombolisis, durante trombolisis y postrombolisis.
Cerebralvascular disease (CVD) is a pathology characterized by a sudden neurological deficit secondary to occlusion or rupture of a cerebral blood vessel; it is divided into ischemic or cerebral infarction (CI) and hemorrhagic. CVD is recognized as the first cause of disability and the fifth cause of death in Mexico, with nearly 170,000 new cases registered each year. There is ample evidence that shows a reduction in negative outcomes, such as death and disability, with rapid interventions, including the administration of intravenous thrombolysis with rt-PA (recombinant tissue plasminogen activator) and mechanical thrombectomy. Multidisciplinary coordination of the health care team and effective nursing care are vital during all stages of CVD care. This review provides an overview of the management of cerebral infarction and identifies essential nursing interventions during the prehospital, prethrombolysis, during thrombolysis, and postthrombolysis stages.

ABSTRACT Among the candidate genes for Parkinson’s disease (PD), SNCA has replicated association in different populations. Besides other known mutations in the SNCA gene, the rs3857059 variant has also been linked to various neurodegenerative disorders. Therefore, the aim of the present study was to search for association of this variant and sporadic PD in Mexican Mestizo patients. A case-control study was performed including 241 individuals, 106 patients, and 135 healthy controls. Genotyping was performed using real-time PCR. The rs3857059 variant demonstrated an association with PD in Mexican Mestizos (OR = 2.40, CI, 1.1 to 5.1, p = 0.02) under the recessive model. In addition, a gender effect was found for the GG genotype in females (OR = 1.31, CI, 1.01 to 1.7, p = 0.037). This is the first study to confirm an association of the rs3857059 variant with PD and also to show a gender effect. Our data contribute to the elucidation of the link between rs3857059 and susceptibility to PD observed in the Mexican Mestizo population.
RESUMO Entre genes candidatos para a doença de Parkinson (PD), SNCA foi replicado em diferentes populações. Além de outras mutações conhecidas no gene SNCA, a variante rs3857059 também tem sido associada a várias doenças neurodegenerativas. Portanto, o objetivo do presente estudo foi o de procurar variante de associação e PD esporádica em pacientes mestiços mexicanos. Um estudo de caso-controle foi executado, incluindo 241 indivíduos, 106 pacientes e 135 controles saudáveis. A genotipagem foi realizada utilizando PCR em tempo real. A variante rs3857059 se mostrou associada a PD em mexicano-mestiços (OR = 2,40, IC 1,1-5,1, p = 0,02) sob o modelo recessivo. Além disso, um efeito de gênero foi encontrado para o genótipo GG no sexo feminino (OR = 1,31, CI, 1,01-1,7, p = 0,037). Este é o primeiro estudo que confirma associação da variante rs3857059 para a PD e também um efeito de gênero. Nossos dados contribuem para elucidar suscetibilidade à PD observada na população mexicana-mestiça.
