Background
Current first‐line topical treatments for atopic dermatitis (AD) are often limited by concerns related to age, systemic absorption, especially when applied to large body surface areas or under maximal usage conditions and undesirable adverse events (AEs), highlighting the need for alternative therapies.
Methods
We performed a systematic...
Background
In Venezuela, the predominant vaccines administered are BBIBP-CorV and Gam-COVID-Vac. Despite robust evidence from randomized clinical trials validating the effectiveness of COVID-19 vaccines in mitigating hospitalization and mortality, there is still a lack of post-authorization safety studies conducted within this demographic populatio...
Background
Despite nearly a quarter of Venezuelans remaining unvaccinated against coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19), the factors contributing to vaccine hesitancy in the country have not been thoroughly investigated.
Methods
A cross-sectional study was conducted from October 15th to 30th, 2022, using a knowledge, attitudes, and practices (KAP) s...
Background
The coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) pandemic has disrupted multiple health services, including human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) testing, care, and treatment services, jeopardizing the achievement of the Joint United Nations Programme on HIV/AIDS 90-90-90 global target. While there are limited studies assessing the impact of the COV...
Background
While rigorous randomized clinical trials have substantiated the efficacy of COVID-19 vaccines in reducing hospitalization and mortality rates, there is a paucity of post-authorization analyses conducted in real-world settings. In Venezuela, the primary vaccines administered are BBIBP-CorV (Sinopharm) and Gam-COVID-Vac (Sputnik-V). Howev...
Background
Persistent headache is a frequent symptom after coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) and there is currently limited knowledge about its clinical spectrum and predisposing factors. A subset of patients may be experiencing new daily persistent headache (NDPH) after COVID-19, which is among the most treatment-refractory primary headache synd...

Background
The COVID-19 pandemic has disrupted multiple health services, including HIV testing, care, and treatment services, jeopardizing the achievement of the UNAIDS 90-90-90 global target. While there are limited studies assessing the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on people living with HIV (PLHIV) in Latin America, there are none, to our know...
Background
Malaria‐endemic areas are not spared from the impact of coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19), leading to co-infection scenarios where overlapping symptoms impose serious diagnostic challenges. Current knowledge on Plasmodium spp. and severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) co‐infection in pregnant women remains limite...
Background
The COVID-19 pandemic has overwhelmed health systems around the world, causing access problems. The patient referral system in Caracas, Venezuela has no interinstitutional coordination, patients are given a note by the referring center and thereafter seeking care relies on themselves. We studied primarily to what extent the Caracas healt...
Background
In low- and middle-income countries, pregnant women and newborns are more vulnerable to adverse outcomes from coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19). However, in Venezuela, there are no integrated data in a national surveillance system to identify the clinical-epidemiological characteristics and maternal-foetal outcomes of pregnant women h...

Hypertensive syndromes of pregnancy are a leading cause of maternal and perinatal morbidity and mortality worldwide.Their etiology is complex, multifactorial and not yet fully understood; however, there is recent evidence that the symptoms are attributable to an excessive inflammatory response causing widespread endothelial damage. During the last...
Abstract Background We have here assessed the impact of demographic, clinical, and treatment compliance characteristics on health-related quality of life (HRQoL) of Venezuelan patients with systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE). We have used a disease-specific questionnaire, the Lupus Quality of Life (LupusQoL), validated in our patient population, to...
The coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID‐19) pandemic has particularly affected countries with weakened health services in Latin America, where proper patient management could be a critical step to address the epidemic. In this study, we aimed to characterize and identify which epidemiological, clinical and paraclinical risk factors defined COVID‐19 inf...
Dear Editor:
The impact of the COVID-19 pandemic is likely to be deeper in resource-limited settings, including Venezuela, where its effects are compounded by the country’s complex humanitarian crisis, inadequately resourced health systems, and concurrent HIV epidemics [1]. There is growing concern that COVID-19 will lead to the disruptions for HIV...
Background: The deterioration of Venezuela's health system in recent years undoubtedly contributes to an increased impact of the COVID-19 pandemic. Understanding healthcare workers' (HCWs) knowledge, attitudes, and practices (KAPs) toward COVID-19 in the early stages of the pandemic could inform their medical training and improve their preparedness...
