Introduction: Body composition is gaining great interest in some pathologies such as Type 1 Diabetes Mellitus (DM1). Adherence to the Mediterranean diet has been shown to be effective in improving the prognosis of cardiovascular disease, which is the main cause of mortality in these patients.Objectives: To assess whether adherence to the Mediterranean diet in DM1 is associated with improvement in disease control parameters, body composition, anthropometr...

Introduction and Objectives: Poor metabolic control in Type 1 Diabetes Mellitus (DM 1) is associated with micro and macrovascular complications. The implementation of interstitial glucose monitoring systems has contributed to improving glycemic control in recent years. Our objective was to know the metabolic control in people with type 1 DM and the Flash system and to establish if there is an association between its use and glycemic control variables.Mat...

Introduction and objectives: Diabetic ketoacidosis (DKA) is a severe acute complication of Diabetes Mellitus (DM) and as such, on a large number of occasions will require hospital admission. As we know, it happens when there is an absolute or relative insulin deficit, although it is true that the characteristics described in the literature of these episodes are very different. Our aim was to compare the characteristics of DKA occurring in patients under 25 years of age with th...

Introduction and Objectives: Pheochromocytomas and paragangliomas are rare neuroendocrine tumors derived from enterochromaffin tissue, mostly catecholamine-producing, adrenal gland (PCC) or extra-adrenal paraganglia (PGL). We were struck by the high incidence of these in our health care area, so we decided to study them. The aim of this work is to evaluate the clinical characteristics and epidemiological factors of patients diagnosed with PCC or PGL.Mate...

Objectives: aGLP1 have been positioned as an effective and safe treatment in patients with Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus (DM2). The objective was to evaluate the changes metabolic and body composition at 6 months after initiation with Semaglutide weekly subcutaneous added to its basic treatment in patients with DM2.Material and Methods: Prospective observational study. Treatment was started in 42 patients with DM2, with weekly subcutaneous Semaglutide with a ...

Objectives: Assess the canagliflozin effect on the ABPI in patients without previous treatment with iSGLT-2 as a possible etiology of tissue hypoperfusion and a risk factor for amputations.Material and methods: Prospective observational study where we analyzed patients diagnosed of type 2 diabetes mellitus (DM2) with poor metabolic control and without prior treatment with iSGLT-2, which is initiated treatment with canagliflozin. Clinical, biochemical par...

Introduction and objectivesThyroid cancer treatment tends to be individualized based on risk stratification and increasingly less aggressive for low-risk tumors, as recent studies have shown that low doses of I-131 are just as effective than higher doses with excellent remission rates. The objective of our study was to evaluate the response after 1 year of treatment with 30 mCi of I-131 in patients with differentiated thyroid cancer.<p class="abstext...

ObjectiveTo study the possible relationship between adherence to the Mediterranean diet and the metabolic syndrome. Material and methods: Retrospective observational study of patients evaluated in a prebariatric surgery consultation between November 2017 and November 2019, who were given a questionnaire of adherence to a Mediterranean diet. Anthropometric and analytical parameters related to the metabolic syn...

IntroductionThe SARS-Coronavirus-2 pandemic affects 248 469 people with 28 341 deaths in Spain as of June 28, 2020. Severe infection is more prevalent in patients with advanced ages, cardiovascular risk factors (CVRF) and chronic diseases (diabetes mellitus, cardiovascular disease and asthma). Having diabetes implies vulnerability to serious complications and death from coronavirus; although, not all diabetics have the same level of risk. The oldest is p...

Objectives: To describe modifiable sociodemographic and clinical risk factors predictive of severe hypoglycemia with need for urgent health care in adults with type 1 diabetes (T1DM).Methods: Multicenter, observational and retrospective study with case-control design.Cases: T1DM adults with severe hypoglycemia, defined as glycemia <70 mg/dl requiring urgent out-of-hospital health care for its resolution. Data source, geographic...
