Familial Mediterranean Fever in Spain
Familial Mediterranean Fever (FMF) is a rare, hereditary, auto-inflammatory disease. The aims of this study were to explore the time trend and geographical distribution of hospitalizations in Spain from 2008 to 2015. We identified hospitalizations of FMF from the Spanish Minimum Basic Data Set at hospital discharge, using ICD-9-CM code 277.31. Age-specific and age-adjusted hospitalization rates were calculated. The time trend and the average perc…
Diagnostic Process in Rare Diseases
Many people living with rare disease (RD) report a difficult diagnostic process from the symptom onset until they obtain the definitive diagnosis. The aim of this study was thus to ascertain the diagnostic process in RDs, and explore the determinants related with having to wait for more than one year in this process (defined as "diagnostic delay"). We conducted a case-control study, using a purpose-designed form from the Spanish Rare Diseases Pat…

Enfermedad de Wilson en España
Evaluar las fuentes de información empleadas por los Registros Autonómicos de Enfermedades Raras (RAER) para la captación de la enfermedad de Wilson en España, calcular su prevalencia y mortalidad, y describir las características sociodemográficas de las personas afectadas. Estudio epidemiológico transversal, periodo 2010-2015. Se captaron los posibles casos mediante los códigos 275.1 (CIE-9-MC), E83.0 (CIE-10) y 905 ORPHA en 15 RAER y el Registr…
Mortalidad atribuida a telangiectasia hemorrágica hereditaria y variabilidad geográfica en España (1981-2016)
Conocer la mortalidad directamente atribuida a la telangiectasia hemorrágica hereditaria (THH) en España, su tendencia temporal y la posible variabilidad geográfica. El total de los fallecidos por THH de base poblacional se obtuvo del Instituto Nacional de Estadística, seleccionando los códigos 448.0 (CIE 9-MC, 1981-1998) y I78.0 (CIE 10, 1999-2016) como causa básica de defunción. Se calcularon las tasas de mortalidad específicas y ajustadas por …
Mortality Due to Cystic Fibrosis over a 36-Year Period in Spain
The aim of this study is to analyze population-based mortality attributed to cystic fibrosis (CF) over 36 years in Spain. CF deaths were obtained from the National Statistics Institute, using codes 277.0 from the International Classification of Diseases (ICD) ninth revision (ICD9-CM) and E84 from the tenth revision (ICD10) to determine the underlying cause of death. We calculated age-specific and age-adjusted mortality rates, and time trends were…
Geographic Analysis of Motor Neuron Disease Mortality and Heavy Metals Released to Rivers in Spain
The etiology of motor neuron disease (MND) is still unknown. The aims of this study were to: (1) analyze MND mortality at a fine-grained level; and (2) explore associations of MND and heavy metals released into Spanish river basins. MND deaths were extracted from the Spanish nationwide mortality registry (2007−2016). Standardized mortality ratios (SMRs) for MND were estimated at a municipal level. Sites that emitted quantities of heavy metals abo…
A Nationwide Registry-Based Study on Mortality Due to Rare Congenital Anomalies
This study aimed to analyse population-based mortality attributed to rare congenital anomalies (CAs) and assess the associated time trends and geographical differences in Spain. Data on CA-related deaths were sourced from annual mortality databases kept by the National Statistics Institute of Spain (1999−2013). Based on the ICD-10, only CAs corresponding to rare diseases definition were included in this study. Annual age-adjusted mortality rates …
Nuevo perfil profesional en hospitales
The introduction of electronic health records (EHR) in almost all healthcare settings, and the end of traditional paper records, offers new opportunities to organize, normalize, and standardize health information. The professional roles of the librarian in hospitals has converged into a new emerging professional figure: the health documentation manager (a professional who knows and uses health classifications, taxonomies, and ontologies that are …
Reproductive Pattern of Cuban Women Living in the Municipality of Plaza De La Revolución, Havana, Cuba
This paper assesses the reproductive and abortion patterns of women living in Plaza de la Revolución, a municipality of Havana, Cuba, by studying the factors influencing birth and abortion rates. Socio-demographic data and female reproductive histories were collected in a survey of 1200 post-menopausal women living in the municipality. Average ages at menarche and at menopause were 12.71 and 48.39 years, respectively, thus yielding a potential lo…
Biological Fitness and Action Opportunity of Natural Selection in an Urban Population of Cuba
This paper describes the biological fitness of an urban population of Havana city, Plaza de la Revolución, which has the lowest fertility and the highest demographic ageing in Cuba. The aim is to assess the biological fitness of this community through the indexes of action opportunity of natural selection, to determine its evolutionary pattern and the influence of its socio-cultural peculiarity. Demographic data were obtained from the reproductiv…
Child age influence on the seasonal death risk during the first year of life (Spain, 1975–1989)
Infant mortality rate reflects a population's health status, which depends on several factors, such as diseases, environment, child development, and other population characteristics that can show seasonal change throughout the year. This article deals with the relevance of child age on the probability of death in the different seasons throughout the first year of life, taking into account the illnesses causing death. The study was carried out usi…
Factors Influencing Prereproductive Mortality in the Isolated and Preindustrial Western Mediterranean Population of La Alpujarra, 1900–1950
We study the effects of several variables on the prereproductive mortality pattern in the isolated and rural population of La Alpujarra, located on the western Mediterranean coast (southeast Spain), in the first half of the 20th century. The study is a retrospective analysis from a total sample of 2,200 deliveries, 2,085 of which were born alive and 171 of which did not survive to the 20th birthday. The potential influences of birthdate of childr…
Causes of Neonatal Mortality in Spain (1975–98)
Neonatal mortality during the first week of life, corresponding to the years 1975–1998, was studied in Spain. The first week of life is the time in which the highest number of deaths occur. The temporal decrease of the neonatal mortality rate (NMR) was modelled according to log 10 (NMR+1)= 2·784−0·023 per year. This decline cannot be explained by an increase in the mean birth weight (MBW=23440·835−10·107 g per year). From the most frequent of the…
