Introducción: La infección congénita por citomegalovirus (CMVc) es la causa no genética más común de pérdida auditiva neurosensorial y una causa importante de trastornos del neurodesarrollo en infantes. Tiene mayor prevalencia en países en vías de desarrollo. Objetivo: Describir las características perinatales, clínicas, terapéuticas y las secuelas neurológicas de los pacientes con CMVc atendidos en el Hospital Nacional Docente Materno Infantil “San Bartolomé” (HONADOMANI) en el periodo 2010-2020. Pacientes y método: Se revisaron las historias clínicas de los pacientes pediátricos que estaban registradas con los códigos CIE-10 de “enfermedad por citomegalovirus, no especificada” (B25.9) e “infección citomegalovírica congénita” (P35.1) atendidos entre los años 2010 y 2020.

“Objective: We aimed to identify factors associated with severe accidental burns in patients ≤12 years old. Materials and methods: We conducted a matched case-control study, in which we retrospectively reviewed the medical records of children treated in a single institution from 2014-2016. We classified the cases (patients with severe burns) and controls (patients with non-severe burns) according to the criteria of the American Burn Association. We used multivariate conditional logistic regression analysis to identify the relationship between the etiology of burns and their severity. Results: We reviewed 180 cases and 90 controls. The most common etiology of burns was boiling water in both cases (65.6%) and controls (83.3%). Most burns occurred inside the home (84.1%) and in the afternoon (37.4%). Multivariate analysis identified that severe burns were mainly due to exposure to fire ...
