. Introduction: The elderly may represent a specific group of patients at high risk for developing COVID-19 with rapidly progressive clinical deterioration. In fact, in older individuals, immunosenescence and comorbid disorders are more likely to promote a virus-induced cytokine storm resulting in life-threatening respiratory failure and multi- system compromise. Material and methods: A descriptive study of the geriatric population with COVID-19 disease attended at the National Institute of Respiratory Diseases, Mexico City, Mexico in the period March-May 2020 was carried out. 35 hospitalized adult patients over 60 years were confirmed by RT PCR. for COVID-19 disease in pharyngeal exudate. Descriptive statistics were used and results were expressed using measures of central tendency. Results: A total sample of 35 patients was analyzed. 62.85% were male (n = 22). Systemic arterial hypertension was documented in 51.42% (n = 18), obesity in 48.57% (n = 17) and diabetes mellitus in 34.28% (n = 12). The severity of the COVID-19 disease at the time of hospital admission was: mild in 22.85% (n = 8), moderate in 42.85% (n = 15) and severe or critical in 34.28% (n = 12). 80% (n = 28) consulted after presenting symptoms for more than five days. The tomographic findings were ground glass pattern in 82.85% (n = 29), consolidation in 14.28% (n = 5) and «crazy paving» in only one patient (2.8%). The mortality registered in geriatric patients with COVID-19 was 68.57%. Conclusions: The geriatric population is considered vulnerable for the development of COVID-19 disease and for fatal outcomes. Patients with moderate disease should be closely monitored as they tend to eventually develop critical forms. The fatality of COVID-19 disease in older adult patients is high.

Telemedicine worldwide and in Mexico has been very useful during the COVID-19 pandemic. Being able to provide health care services where distance is a critical factor, at a time when health services are saturated, and where face-to-face care implies a risk for both the health care provider and the patients, it has been indispensable during the pandemic. The speed with which telemedicine services have been implemented globally has been very different. There are still great challenges to be solved in order to provide this type of care worldwide. It should be noted that telemedicine complements patient care, rather than replacing the usual face-to-face care.

RESUMEN. El consumo de tabaco tiene consecuencias adversas en la salud cardiovascular y representa un problema de salud pública a nivel mundial que demanda atención integral. Se realizó una revisión sistemática en PubMed de la literatura concerniente al impacto del tabaquismo sobre la salud cardiovascular reportada en metaanálisis publicados en los últimos 10 años. Doce estudios determinaron una asociación significativa entre el tabaquismo y la incidencia de enfermedades cardiovasculares, de los cuales seis demostraron una dismi nución importante de la morbimortalidad tras la implementación de políticas para el control del tabaco. Es necesario fortalecer las acciones de los gobiernos y los profesionales de la salud para disminuir la prevalencia de consumo de tabaco y proteger a la población general de las enfermedades asociadas con este producto, que afectan a todo el cuerpo y que tienden a generar enfermos con múltiples comorbilidades que se tienen que investigar. ABSTRACT. Cigarette smoking has hazardous effects on cardiovascular health and represents a worldwide great concern that demands further attention. We conducted a systematic review using PubMed database of the literature concerning cardiovascular effects of cigarette smoking reported in meta-analyses published in the last 10 years. 12 studies determined a significant association between cigarette smoking and the incidence of cardiovascular diseases, 6 of them demonstrated a substantial decline in the morbimortality after tobacco control policies were implemented. There is a need for the governments and the health care providers to strengthen their actions in order to reduce the prevalence of tobacco smoking and protect the general population from smoking attributable diseases, affecting multiple organs and systems and generating patients with multiple comorbidities.

. Introduction: the role of imaging resources for the characterization of the spectrum of radiological manifestations, through standardized language and structured reports, serves as a guide for treatment and therapy in COVID-19 patients. Purpose: to determine the clinical-imaging characteristics in the chest tomography in patients with COVID-19 at the Hospital María de Especialidades Pediátricas. Material and methods: observational, cross-sectional study, with an analytical component, carried out at the Hospital María de Especialidades Pediátricas, April 2020-April 2021. All data were obtained from clinical records and digital image archive, 149 patients met the case definition. The inclusion criteria were: confirmed or probable COVID-19 patients 18 years or older who were hospitalized and underwent RT-PCR or antigen tests and HRCT. On the other hand, three scales were used to objectify affectation, severity and degree of suspicion for the prediction of COVID-19 by computerized tomography (CT). Results: the most affected population where female, the most frequent age range was between 40-59 years, (mean of 56) with comorbidities such as hypertension, obesity and diabetes or prediabetes. Most of the patients presented in a chronic or advanced phase of the disease, the following patterns where found the most frequently; cobblestone (80.5%), pleuroparenchymal bands (79.5%) and ground glass pattern (73.8%). There is a strong correlation between the predominant pulmonary patterns and the tomographic evolution phase (Pearson’s correlation coefficient 0.65). Conclusion: computerized tomography is a very valuable tool for diagnosing COVID-19 infection,

La tomografía computarizada es fundamental en el proceso diagnóstico dada su alta sensibilidad. Objetivo: Describir los hallazgos tomográficos en la afectación pulmonar por COVID-19. Material y métodos: Estudio transversal analítico. Pacientes atendidos en el Instituto Nacional de Enfermedades Respiratorias, Ciudad de México, con definición operacional vigente de caso sospechoso para COVID-19, que contaran con prueba de RT-PCR específica y tomografía computarizada de tórax en la valoración inicial. Se realizó un análisis descriptivo y analítico mediante la prueba de χ2 y t de Student. Se empleó el programa Epi-Info versión 7. Resultados: Se analizaron 56 pacientes, con una edad promedio de 51 años, 61% fue del sexo masculino. 52% presentaron comorbilidades, siendo la diabetes mellitus la más frecuente. Los síntomas que principalmente se observaron fueron fiebre, tos y cefalea. El patrón tomográfico que predominó fue mixto, con localización subpleural y bilateral. Conclusión: El espectro tomográfico pulmonar de la población estudiada se caracterizó por dos patrones principales: tipo mixto (áreas de consolidación con vidrio deslustrado) y empedrado.
