It is acute when it evolves from 0 to 20 days. Very common in clinical practice, the etiological diagnosis, particularly in developing and tropical countries, is often a challenge for clinicians due to their diversity and the limited availability of diagnostic tools. There is a wide spectrum of etiological diagnoses including infectious causes and non-infectious causes. The aim of this study was to investigate the etiology of fevers acute at the medical unit in the medico-surgical emergency department of the Donka National Hospital. Methods: This was a descriptive cross-sectional study lasting 03 months (January 01, 2022 to March 31, 2022). We included in this study all patients seen in the medical unit, whose age ≥ 18 years, without distinction of sex, from any origin, with an axillary temperature ≥ 37.5°C in the morning and 37.8°C in the evening, evolving from 0 to 20 days, hospitalized or followed on an outpatient basis, and having given verbal consent. Results: Of a total of 1087 patients seen, 466 had an acute fever. The mean age was 40.04 ± 18.91 years (18 and 96 years). The female sex (58.15%) was predominant with a sex ratio of 0.72. Malaria (50.86%) was the main diagnosis. The treatment consisted of compressed paracetamol (59.01%), arthemether + lumefantrine (50.85%). Conclusion: The incidence of acute fevers is high in the medical unit of the medico-surgical emergency department of the Donka National Hospital. Malaria was the main pathology. Treatment was etiological and symptomatic. This high incidence could be explained by the fact that Guinea is an endemic malaria zone. A study taking into account other etiological factors would be of great interest. 展开更多

Introduction: The metabolic syndrome (MS) corresponds to the coexistence of several metabolic disorders including three (3) factors out of five (5) in the same individual. These five (5) major criteria are central or abdominal obesity, hypertriglyceridemia, low High-Density Lipoprotein cholesterol (HDLc), hyperglycemia, and elevated blood pressure. It has been the subject of various definitions over the past 10 years. It is a clinical-biological entity recognized by the World Health Organization (WHO) in 1998, the National Cholesterol Education Program-Adult Treatment Panel III (NCEP-ATP III) in 2001, the International Diabetes Federation (IDF) in 2005, then the IDF Harmonization Consensus in 2009. The objective of this study was to determine the prevalence of metabolic syndrome in the medico-surgical emergency department of the Donka national hospital. Methods: This was a descriptive study, data collection took place from February 5 to July 5, 2022 and, covering all patients aged 16 and over, without distinction of sex, origin received in consultation in the medical unit in the emergency department of Donka and having agreed to participate in the study. Anthropometric, clinical and biological data were recorded. Results: We recruited 107 patients whose age ranged from 20 to 94 years with a mean age of 58.92 ± 13.78 years. The prevalence of metabolic syndrome in our study population was 6.30% with a female predominance of 73.83%. The most frequent components of the metabolic syndrome were abdominal obesity (100%) followed by hyperglycemia (85.98%) and hypertension (85.05%). Among the complications related to the metabolic syndrome, diabetes was found with (46.73%), hypertension (43.93%) and stroke (16.93%). Conclusion: Our results show a significant prevalence of the metabolic syndrome and its main complications, which were diabetes, hypertension and stroke. These data justify early detection and treatment strategies. 展开更多
