    La Atrofia Muscular Espinal (AME) es una grave enfermedad neurológica autosómica recesiva (1-2/100,000 personas). Se clasifica en tres tipos según la edad de inicio y los hitos motores alcanzados. Es causada por variantes patogénicas en el gen Survival of Motor Neuron 1 (SMN1), y modificada por el número de copias del gen SMN2. Existen tres fármacos modificadores de la historia natural de la enfermedad, aprobados por entes reguladores: nusinersen, risdiplam y onasemnogene abeparvovec.Objetivo: Establecer recomendaciones para el uso de terapia génica y modificadora de enfermedad para AME.Método: Un panel de 9 neurólogos pediátricos expertos revisó la evidencia disponible y consensuó recomendaciones para el uso de estos fármacos en pacientes con AME.Resultados: Se revisaron 21 estudios. Todos los pacientes mantuvieron el estándar de cuidado respiratorio y nutricional. Las tres terapias se asociaron a un mejor pronóstico motor, ventilatorio y sobrevida comparados con placebo o con la historia natural de la enfermedad en pacientes presintomáticos (2-3 copias de SMN2), con AME I (<6 meses y sin ventilación mecánica permanente (VMP)), AME II y III (sin VMP). No se encontraron estudios de alta calidad que demuestren la eficacia de las terapias combinadas, en etapas avanzadas de la enfermedad ni con 0-1 copia de SMN2.Conclusiones: Se recomienda el uso de los tres fármacos en pacientes presintomáticos, con AME I < 6 meses, AME II y AME III, excepto en aquellos con VMP, etapas avanzadas o 0-1 copias de SMN2. El uso de estos fármacos en pacientes que no cumplan estos criterios debe ser evaluado individualmente por expertos.

    Six-month post-intensive care outcomes during high and low bed occupancy due to the COVID-19 pandemic: A multicenter prospective cohort study
    <jats:sec id="sec001"> <jats:title>Introduction</jats:title> <jats:p>The COVID-19 pandemic can be seen as a natural experiment to test how bed occupancy affects post-intensive care unit (ICU) patient’s functional outcomes.

Ninety percent of nationwide beds occupied was the cut-off for low versus high bed occupancy. At ICU discharge, 3- and 6-month follow-up, we assessed disability using the World Health Organization Disability Assessment Schedule 2.0.

    <jats:p>Objetivo: Describir una alternativa innovadora a la laparotomía exploradora en un recién nacido con un hematoma hepático subcapsular secundario a la inserción de un catéter venoso umbilical.Caso Clínico: Paciente de pretérmino con antecedentes de enfermedad de membrana hialina, hipertensión pulmonar y ductus arterioso persistente amplio, que requirió ventilación mecánica y uso de drogas vasoactivas. Se instalaron catéteres umbilicales, fueron controlados con radiografía de abdomen anteroposterior, en la que impresionaron estar adecuadamente posicionados. Evolucionó con mayor requerimiento de drogas vasoactivas, palidez de pared abdominal y distensión abdominal. Bajo ecografía se diagnosticó un hematoma hepático subcapsular contenido, sin signos de sangrado activo, por lo que se decidió conducta expectante. Aumentó requerimiento de drogas vasoactivas y presentó caída de hematocrito. La ecografía de control encontró un hematoma subcapsular de mayor tamaño, abundante liquido perihepático y se confirmó la posición intraparenquimatosa de la punta del catéter umbilical. Se realizó embolización endovascular a través del catéter umbilical con Gelita®, logrando oclusión del trayecto capsular. La ecografía de control mostró disminución del hematoma.Conclusiones: El uso de embolización por angiografía no es comúnmente utilizado en urgencias pediátricas. Es un procedimiento con menos comorbilidades y complicaciones que la laparotomía exploradora, por lo que debería ser una terapia de primera línea en pacientes como el presentado. Las limitaciones para su realización rutinaria son la disponibilidad de pabellón de angiografía y la presencia de un equipo entrenado de radiología intervencionista.</jats:p>

We pooled individual participant data to estimate the absolute and relative risk (RR) of adverse outcomes among pregnant women with SARS-CoV-2 infection, compared with confirmed negative pregnancies. We evaluated the risk of bias using a modified Newcastle-Ottawa Scale.</jats:p></jats:sec><jats:sec><jats:title>Results</jats:title><jats:p>We screened 137 studies and included 12 studies in 12 countries involving 13 136 pregnant women.</jats:p><jats:p>Pregnant women with SARS-CoV-2 infection—as compared with uninfected pregnant women—were at significantly increased risk of maternal mortality (10 studies; n=1490; RR 7.68, 95% CI 1.70 to 34.61); admission to intensive care unit (8 studies; n=6660; RR 3.81, 95% CI 2.03 to 7.17); receiving mechanical ventilation (7 studies; n=4887; RR 15.23, 95% CI 4.32 to 53.71); receiving any critical care (7 studies; n=4735; RR 5.48, 95% CI 2.57 to 11.72); and being diagnosed with pneumonia (6 studies; n=4573; RR 23.46, 95% CI 3.03 to 181.39) and thromboembolic disease (8 studies; n=5146; RR 5.50, 95% CI 1.12 to 27.12).</jats:p><jats:p>Neonates born to women with SARS-CoV-2 infection were more likely to be admitted to a neonatal care unit after birth (7 studies; n=7637; RR 1.86, 95% CI 1.12 to 3.08); be born preterm (7 studies; n=6233; RR 1.71, 95% CI 1.28 to 2.29) or moderately preterm (7 studies; n=6071; RR 2.92, 95% CI 1.88 to 4.54); and to be born low birth weight (12 studies; n=11 930; RR 1.19, 95% CI 1.02 to 1.40).

Studies were generally at low or moderate risk of bias.</jats:p></jats:sec><jats:sec><jats:title>Conclusions</jats:title><jats:p>This analysis indicates that SARS-CoV-2 infection at any time during pregnancy increases the risk of maternal death, severe maternal morbidities and neonatal morbidity, but not stillbirth or intrauterine growth restriction.
