In recent decades,life expectancy has been increasing significantly.In this scenario,health interventions are ne-cessary to improve prognosis and quality of life of elderly with cardiovascular risk factors and cardiovascular disease.However,the number of elderly patients included in clinical trials is low,thus current clinical practice guidelines do not include specific re-commendations.This document aims to review prevention recommendations focused in patients≥75 years with high or very high cardiovascular risk,regarding objectives,medical treatment options and also including physical exercise and their inclusion in cardiac rehabilitation programs.Also,we will show why geriatric syndromes such as frailty,dependence,cognitive impair-ment,and nutritional status,as well as comorbidities,ought to be considered in this population regarding their important pro-gnostic impact.

Colorectal cancer(CRC)is the second most common cause of cancer-related deaths in Europe and other Western countries,mainly due to the lack of wellvalidated clinically useful biomarkers with enough sensitivity and specificity to detect this disease at early stages.Although it is well known that the pathogenesis of CRC is a progressive accumulation of mutations in multiple genes,much less is known at the proteome level.Therefore,in the last years many proteomic studies have been conducted to find new candidate protein biomarkers for diagnosis,prognosis and as therapeutic targets for this malignancy,as well as to elucidate the molecular mechanisms of colorectal carcinogenesis.An important advantage of the proteomic approaches is the capacity to look for multiple differentially expressed proteins in a single study.This review provides an overview of the recent reports describing the different proteomic tools used for the discovery of new protein markers for CRC such as two-dimensional electrophoresis methods,quantitative mass spectrometry-based techniques or protein microarrays.Additionally,we will also focus on the diverse biological samples used for CRC biomarker discovery such as tissue,serum and faeces,besides cell lines and murine models,discussing their advantages and disadvantages,and summarize the most frequently identified candidate CRC markers.

Clostridium difficile (C. difficile) is a spore-forming, toxin-producing, gram-positive anaerobic bacterium that is the principal etiologic agent of antibiotic-associated diarrhea. Infection with C. difficile (CDI) is characterized by diarrhea in clinical syndromes that vary from selflimited to mild or severe. Since its initial recognition as the causative agent of pseudomembranous colitis, C. difficile has spread around the world. CDI is one of the most common healthcare-associated infections and a significant cause of morbidity and mortality among older adult hospitalized patients. Due to extensive antibiotic usage, the number of CDIs has increased. Diagnosis of CDI is often difficult and has a substantial impact on the management of patients with the disease, mainly with regards to antibiotic management. The diagnosis of CDI is primarily based on the clinical signs and symptoms and is only confirmed by laboratory testing. despite the high burden of CDI and the increasing interest in the disease, episodes of CDI are often misdiagnosed. The reasons for misdiagnosis are the lack of clinical suspicion or the use of inappropriate tests. The proper diagnosis of CDI reduces transmission, prevents inadequate or unnecessary treatments, and assures best antibiotic treatment. We review the options for the laboratory diagnosis of CDI within the settings of the most accepted guidelines for CDI diagnosis, treatment, and prevention of CDI.

BACKGROUND Sacubitril-valsartan has been shown to reduce hospitalizations and mortality in patients with heart failure(HF)and reduced ejection fraction.The PIONEER-HF trial demonstrated that initiation of the drug during acute HF hospitalization reduced NT-proBNP levels and a post-hoc analysis of the trial found a reduction in HF hospitalizations and deaths.Real-life studies in the elderly population are scarce.The aim of our study was to assess the effectiveness of sacubitril-valsartan versus angiotensin converting enzyme inhibitors(ACEI)in elderly patients who initiate this treatment during hospitalization for acute HF.METHODS We conducted a retrospective cohort study using the Spanish acute heart failure registry(RICA)comparing rehospitalizations and deaths at 3 months and 1 year among patients aged 70 years or older who had initiated treatment with sacubitrilvalsartan during hospitalization for acute HF versus those treated with ACEI.RESULTS One hundred and ninety-nine patients hospitalized between October 2016 and November 2020 were included,with a median age of 82 years and high rate of comorbidity.Of these,107 were treated with sacubitril-valsartan and 92 with ACEI.The adjusted OR for readmission for HF at 3 months was 0.906(95%CI:0.241-3.404)and for the combined variable readmission for HF or death at 3 months was 0.696(95%CI:0.224-2.167).The adjusted OR for HF readmission at one year was 0.696(95%CI:0.224-2.167).and for the combined variable HF readmission or death at one year 0.724(95%CI:0.325-1.612).CONCLUSION Treatment with sacubitril-valsartan initiated early in hospitalization for HF in elderly patients with high comorbidity was associated with a trend towards a reduction in readmissions and death due to HF compared to treatment with ACEI,which did not reach statistical significance either at 3 months or 1 year of follow-up.

Progressive osseous heteroplasia(POH)is an ultra-rare autosomal dominant disabling disorder characterized by heterotopic ossification(HO).It is caused by heterozygous inactivating mutations in the GNAS(guanine nucleotide-binding protein alpha-stimulating activity polypeptide)gene.However,the molecular mechanisms underlying HO remain poorly understood.As a treatment for POH is not yet available,the identification of the mechanisms driving POH in affected tissues using gene expression may be of great help to underestand the molecular basis of POH and develop new therapeutic approaches.

Recent findings demonstrate the common genetic basis for many immune-mediated diseases,and consequently,the partially shared pathogenesis.We collected these findings and reviewed the extension of these overlaps to other disease characteristics.Two autoimmune diseases were selected that also share the specific target organ,the bowel.The etiology and immunopathogenesis of both conditions characterized by chronic intestinal inflammation,inflammatory bowel disease(IBD)and celiac disease(CeD),are not completely understood.Both are complex diseases with genetics and environment contributing to dysregulation of innate and adaptive immune responses,leading to chronic inflammation and disease.CeD constitutes a particular disease because the main environmental and genetic triggers are largely known.IBD comprises two main clinical forms,Crohn’s disease and ulcerative colitis,which most likely involve a complex interplay between some components of the commensal microbiota and other environmental factors in their origin.These multifactorial diseases encompass a broad spectrum of clinical phenotypes and ages of onset,although the clinical presentation often differs depending on childhood or adult onset,with greater heterogeneity commonly observed in adults.

Chronic spontaneous urticaria (CSU) is defined as the spontaneous appearance of wheals, angioedema, or both, for at least 6 weeks, due to known or unknown causes [1]. In some patients who present a CSU with daily or almost daily symptoms a type I allergy could be the underlying cause. We present one adult patient with chronic urticaria who was finally diagnosed as a non-occupational case of IgE-mediated wheat allergy manifested following exposure by 3 different routes: inhalation (rhinitis and bronchial asthma), dermal absorption (contact urticaria) and ingestion (systemic chronic urticaria). We were able to detect the culprit proteins by immunoblotting. Serum IgE binds mainly to alpha-amylase/trypsin inhibitors and, to a lesser extent, to other proteins associated with food allergy to grains (e.g. beta-glucanase, serpin, peroxidase). In our opinion, skin prick tests with a food standard battery could help in the etiological diagnosis of chronic urticaria. The identification of responsible allergens could be difficult because only a few complex in vitro techniques allow detecting the allergy to several proteins.
