ABSTRACT

OBJECTIVE: Studies report a higher prevalence of HCV, HBV and HIV in the population with Alcohol Use Disorder. Our objective is to determine the seroprevalence for hepatitis B and C and the human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) in patients with alcohol use disorder, as well as to determine if there is a correct serological screening of these. METHODS: Retrospective study of 204 patients with Alcohol Use Disorder followed up in the Addictive Behaviors Unit from Albacete. They started treatment from 2013-2014 onwards, the last patient was recruited in December of 2017. RESULTS: Our sample has 160 men (78.4%) and 44 women (21.6%). The median age is 46.2 years. 161 patients (78.9%) had HIV serology and it was negative in all. 146 patients (71.6%) had negative hepatitis B serology and 12 (5.9%) were vaccinated. 36 patients (17.6%) had no hepatitis B serology performed. In 10 patients, hepatitis B serology was positive (4.9%; 95% CI 1.9-7.9%). 159 patients (77.9%) had negative hepatitis C serology, and 37 patients had not performed it (18.1%). 8 patients had positive serology (prevalence of 3.9%; 95% CI 1.2-6.6%). Excluding patients who did not have serology, seroprevalence was 5.9% (95% CI 2.3-9.6%) and 4.8% (95% CI 1.5-8.1%) respectively. Failure to perform serologies was associated with older age and less weekly Standard Drink Units (SDUs) consumption. CONCLUSIONS: The seroprevalence of HBV and HCV in patients with alcohol use disorder is high. It should be ensured that 100% of patients with alcohol use disorder undergo HCV, HIV, HBV serology, reducing the loss of diagnostic opportunities.


OBJETIVO: Estudios relatan mayor prevalencia de VHC, VHB y VIH en población con Trastorno de Consumo de Alcohol. El objetivo de nuestro estudio fue determinar la seroprevalencia para Virus de Hepatitis B (VHB), Virus de Hepatitis C (VHC) y el Virus de la Inmunodeficiencia Humana (VIH) en pacientes con trastorno por consumo de alcohol, así como determinar si existe un correcto cribaje serológico de éstos. METODOS: Estudio retrospectivo de 204 pacientes con trastorno por consumo de alcohol seguidos en la unidad de conductas adictivas de Albacete, que iniciaron tratamiento desde el año 2013-2014 en adelante, el último paciente fue reclutado en diciembre de 2017. RESULTADOS: Nuestra muestra tiene 160 hombres (78,4%) y 44 mujeres (21,6%). La mediana de edad es 46,2 años. 161 pacientes (78,9%) tenían serología de VIH y fue negativa en todos. 146 pacientes (71,6%) tenían serología negativa de hepatitis B y 12 (5,9%) estaban vacunados. 36 pacientes (17,6%) no tenían serología realizada de hepatitis B. En 10 pacientes la serología de hepatitis B fue positiva (4,9%; IC95% 1,9-7,9%). 159 pacientes (77,9%) tenían serología negativa de hepatitis C, y 37 pacientes no la tenían realizada (18,1%). 8 pacientes tenían serología positiva (prevalencia de 3,9%; IC95% 1,2-6,6%). Excluyendo a los pacientes que no tenían serología la seroprevalencia fue de 5,9% (IC95% 2,3-9,6%) y de 4.8% (IC95% de 1,5-8,1%) respectivamente. La no realización de serologías se asoció a mayor edad y un menor consumo de Unidades de Bebida Estándar (UBEs) por semana. CONCLUSIONES: La seroprevalencia de VHB y VHC en pacientes con trastorno por consumo de alcohol es alta. Debería asegurarse que el 100% de pacientes con trastorno de consumo de alcohol, se realicen serologías de VHC, VIH, VHB disminuyendo pérdida de oportunidades diagnósticas.

ABSTRACT

Resumen En los últimos tiempos se ha desarrollado una gran sensibilización por la humanización de la asistencia sanitaria. Esta humanización afecta las relaciones del personal sanitario con el paciente, así como las estructuras físicas de los centros sanitarios y la organización de la atención. Algunos autores han vinculado esta humanización de la medicina con la llamada bioética de los principios, y, en concreto, con la autonomía como principio bioético dominante. En este breve artículo se expresa la preocupación por el desarrollo de una probable exaltación de este principio (lo que se ha llamado autonomismo) vinculado a este movimiento de humanización de la asistencia.


Abstract In recent times, a significant concern about the problem of the humanization of health care has been developed. This humanization affects the relationships of the health personnel with the patient as well as other issues such as the physical structures of the care centers and the organization of health system. This humanization of medicine has been linked to the so-called bioethical principlism, and specially to the principle of autonomy as a dominant bioethical principle. In this brief article, the author expresses the concern for the development of an exaltation of this principle (what has been called autonomism) linked to this movement of humanization of care.

ABSTRACT

In the last decades, emerging molecular targets for ischemic neuroprotection and regeneration have been postulated. This fact allowed that classical drugs with well established therapeutic applications might be used in cerebrovascular diseases as well as neurodegenerative diseases. Minocycline is a commonly used antibiotic of the tetracycline family (7-dimethylamino-6-dimethyl-6-deoxytetracycline) which reveals cytoprotective capability and potential use in treatment of different diseases. Here, we discuss the literature concerning minocycline. The available data indicate that the antibiotic has multi-faceted effects on cell functions and, consequently, a number of clinical properties that are useful and/or could be useful for treatment of different diseases including bacterial infections, cancer, autoimmune disorders, ischemia as well as neurodegenerative and psychiatric diseases. Thus, application of minocycline as a therapeutic agent is the subject of clinical trials for various diseases. It is also evident that minocycline-mediated cytoprotection, including neuroprotection, is an important aspect of its clinical application. Here, we have reviewed the basis of the minocycline activity as well as different studies indicating that minocycline can be used as potential therapeutic agent in both cerebrovascular and neurodegenerative diseases in human.
