ABSTRACT

RESUMEN Las estrategias para comunicar la información han experimentado muchos cambios, los cuales se han evidenciado en la pandemia. La idea es lograr que se pueda conectar con el estudiante y que la información la reciba de manera clara, oportuna y pertinente, de modo que tendrá los saberes previos para lograr integrar la información de la teoría y la práctica, con el fin de enfrentar con éxito la actividad simulada, así como cuando interactúe con el paciente. En ese contexto, el aula invertida es una estrategia didáctica que brinda videos, podcast, entre otros, para que sean revisados con anticipación, de tal forma que cuando el estudiante realice la actividad presencial o virtual se profundice y se hagan precisiones sobre los conceptos más importantes, usando metodologías activas de participación para lograr el siguiente propósito: El aprendizaje invertido busca un cambio en la dinámica del aprendizaje que apunte como eje del mismo al estudiante. El objetivo de la presente contribución docente es compartir las bondades de esta estrategia usada en estudiantes de la carrera de Odontología dentro del marco del curso de Clínica Estomatológica del Adulto I, dictado en 2023 y que pertenece al quinto ciclo de la carrera de Estomatología en la Universidad Peruana Cayetano Heredia.


ABSTRACT Strategies for communicating information have undergone many changes, which have been evidenced in the pandemic. The idea is to be able to connect with the student and that the information is received in a clear, timely and relevant manner, so that he/she will have the prior knowledge to integrate information from theory and practice, in order to successfully face the simulated activity, as well as when interacting with the patient. In this context, the inverted classroom is a didactic strategy that provides videos, podcasts, among others, to be reviewed in advance, so that when the student performs the face-to-face or virtual activity, the most important concepts are deepened and clarified, using active participation methodologies to achieve the following objective: flipped learning seeks a change in the dynamics of learning that points to the student as its axis. The objective of this teaching contribution is to share the benefits of this strategy used with students of the Dentistry degree program within the framework of the Adult Stomatology Clinic I course, taught in 2023 and which belongs to the fifth semester of the Stomatology degree program at the Universidad Peruana Cayetano Heredia.


RESUMO As estratégias de comunicação de informação sofreram muitas alterações, que são evidentes na pandemia. A ideia é conseguir conectar-se com o aluno e que a informação seja recebida de forma clara, oportuna e relevante, para que ele tenha o conhecimento prévio para poder integrar informações da teoria e da prática, a fim de enfrentar com sucesso a atividade simulada, bem como ao interagir com o paciente. Neste contexto, a sala de aula invertida é uma estratégia didática que disponibiliza vídeos, podcasts, entre outros, para serem revistos previamente, de modo a que, quando o aluno realiza a atividade presencial ou virtual, os conceitos mais importantes sejam aprofundados e clarificados, utilizando metodologias de participação ativa para atingir o seguinte objetivo: A aprendizagem investida procura uma mudança na dinâmica da aprendizagem que aponta para o aluno como eixo da mesma. O objetivo desta contribuição didática é partilhar os benefícios desta estratégia utilizada com os alunos da disciplina de Medicina Dentária no âmbito do curso de Clínica de Estomatologia de Adultos I, ministrada em 2023 e que pertence ao quinto semestre da disciplina de Estomatologia da Universidad Peruana Cayetano Heredia.

ABSTRACT

RESUMEN La COVID-19 y la continuidad de la emergencia sanitaria han generado que durante el 2021 se mantenga el distanciamiento social y los cuidados en el aforo de los espacios públicos. Esto ha ocasionado que la presencialidad a clases aún se vea afectada, obligando a que las instituciones de educación superior continúen via remota sus actividades. La carrera de odontología es eminentemente práctica, en ese sentido muchos de los cursos tuvieron que experimentar una adecuación a esta nueva contingencia. En el presente artículo se presentan las adecuaciones, estrategias y metodologías en dos cursos de carrera eminentemente clínicos que se imparten en el sexto y séptimo ciclo de la carrera de odontológia de la Facultad de Estomatología de la Universidad Peruana Cayetano Heredia, denominados Clínica Integral del Adulto III y Clínica Integral del Adulto IV que se imparten en el primer y segundo semestre de cada año. Se muestra como se llevó a cabo estos cursos usando la plataforma Zoom via remota y un modelo de simulación nivel 1 (Maqueta-UPCH) con el objetivo de llevar a cabo la adquisición de competencias por parte de los alumnos. Esta es una experiencia inédita nunca antes descrita a la fecha.


ABSTRACT COVID-19 and the continuity of the health emergency have led to the maintenance of social distancing and care in the capacity of public spaces during 2021. This continues to cause attendance at classes to be affected, forcing higher education institutions to continue their activities remotely. The dentistry career is eminently practical, in that sense many courses had to experience an adaptation to this new contingency. This article presents the adaptations, strategies and methodologies in two eminently clinical career courses that are taught in the sixth and seventh cycle of the dentistry career of the Faculty of Dentistry of the Cayetano Heredia Peruvian University, called Integral Adult Clinic. III and Integral Clinic for Adults IV, which are taught in the first and second semesters of each year. It shows how these courses were carried out using the Zoom platform remotely and a level 1 simulation model (Manenquin-UPCH) with the aim of carrying out the acquisition of skills by the students. This is an unprecedented experience never before described to date.

ABSTRACT

Resumen En la literatura académica son muy escasos los esfuerzos en los que se analiza, desde la disciplina de la política pública, a un derecho humano específico. Para este trabajo se analizará el caso de la salud mental como derecho humano en Quintana Roo, México. Para dar cumplimiento a lo anterior, se planteó una metodología de revisión histórico-documental que permitió analizar si existen elementos básicos de política pública en materia de salud mental en Quintana Roo. Entre los resultados se encontró que, si bien ya existe un piso mínimo de política pública, no hay condiciones de infraestructura suficientes para poder considerar a la salud mental como derecho humano. Esto deja abierta la puerta a que este trabajo sea el ápice de la discusión sobre la necesidad de generar políticas públicas enfocadas a generar infraestructura física que permitan, en el mediano y largo plazo, considerar la idea de que la salud mental sea derecho humano.


Abstract An elementary condition of any human right is that once it appears in legislation, the government, be it federal, regional or local, is obliged to provide both legal and political conditions as well as physical infrastructure to guarantee full access and enjoyment of the human right in question. Thus, in the academic literature, the analysis of human rights focuses mainly on those which already have that status (access to education, non-discrimination, political rights, children's rights, indigenous rights, women's rights, political rights, property rights, human rights for older adults), leaving aside those which do not yet have a status as human right, but which it should be, such as mental health, for example. And it is precisely on this topic that this document focuses. From the foregoing, it follows the observation that it is very evident that academic discussions on human rights focus on jurisprudential and jurisdiction issues, however, there are very few articles where these are analyzed from the discipline of public policy, and are stillness where the viability of a right to become a human right is analyzed from a perspective where psychology and public policy are involved. Even though health in its broadest definition considers mental health as one of its components, the reality is that public health policy has prioritized physical health over mental health, which is undoubtedly an operationalization bias. This forces a review of the conditions that exist to elevate mental health as a human right in the state of Quintana Roo in Mexico. In order to comply with the above sentence, a vast documentary review as first carried out, mainly of the World Health Organization (WHO) and its guidelines on the design and implementation of health policy, as well as statistics on the situation of mental health and some mental disorders both in the world and in Mexico. The conceptual part is supported in the discussion of basic concepts of public policy, for example o, transversality. The selection of this concept is due to the fact that theoretically public policies, from their conception as a public problem, through their design and management, to their evaluation, must be aligned both horizontally and vertically, that is, they must be coherent between what is mandated and legislates in the federal, state and municipal order and must be appropriate with other policies of the government order in question. Another important part of the conceptual discussion centers on the definition of the human rights. The proposed methodology involved cabinet and documentary work, both legal and newspaper, and official documents by the Mexican and Quintana Roo government to analyze the legal and policy conditions, mainly the basic elements of transversality, governance and public policies design about mental health in the state of Quintana Roo, Mexico. Among the results, it can be found that although there is already a minimum floor in legal matters at the federal level, even at the state level, even though initiatives have been presented from the government itself and from non-governmental entities, it is difficult to think that in In the short term, there are sufficient political, public policy and infrastructure conditions to position mental health as a human right in Quintana Roo. This leaves the door open for this work to be the apex of the discussion on the need and urgency to generate public policies, both in legal terms, as well as budgetary, administrative, operational, and physical infrastructure that allows for the short, medium, and long term. Consider the idea that mental health is a human right in both Quintana Roo and Mexico.

ABSTRACT

Abstract The pandemic of coronavirus infectious disease-2019 (COVID-19) caused by the severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus-2 (SARS-CoV-2) is a threat to global health. This has become an obstacle for the practice of hematology, mostly in low-middle income countries. For those hematologist and oncologists who perform hematopoietic stem cell transplantation HSCT the usual challenges of this kind of medical procedures have increased because of the COVID-19 pandemic. The importance of find the best route for performing HSCT avoiding excessive COVID-19 risk is of great importance. By doing so, we have been able to conduct 170 hematopoieic stem cell transplants during the COVID-19 pandemia.


Resumen La pandemia de COVID-19 ha causado daños graves a la práctica de la medicina y se ha convertido en un obstáculo para la práctica de algunas especialidades. Los trasplantes de células hematopoyéticas han sufrido las consecuencias de la pandemia y muchos centros de trasplante hematopoyético en todo el mundo suspendieron sus labores. Gracias a la implementación de medidas de escrutinio y aislamiento de los pacientes sometidos a trasplante hematopoyético, hemos podido trasplantar a 170 pacientes en la época del COVID-19.

ABSTRACT

Objetivo: Comparar la resistencia a la microtensión entre dentina y resina de laboratorio Ceramage (Shofu) microa- renada, con óxido de aluminio de 25, 50 y 90 micrómetros, y un grupo sin microarenado. Materiales y métodos: Se utilizaron 12 terceros molares sanos, 3 por cada grupo. Se cortó la super- ficie de esmalte oclusal con un disco diamantado biactivo (BesQual) de 22 mm para exponer una superficie plana de dentina. Se fabricaron 12 bloques de resina de laboratorio Ceramage (Shofu) en un molde cilíndrico de teflón con un diámetro de 8 mm y una altura de 4 mm. Se tuvieron 4 grupos de estudio (3 bloques por grupo), a los que aleatoria- mente se aplicaron los siguientes trata- mientos de superficie: G1, sin microa- renar (grupo control); G2, con Al2O3 de 25 µm (Zhermack); G3, con Al2O3 de 50 µm (Bioart), y G4, con Al2O3 de 90 µm (Bioart). La cementación de los bloques a la dentina se realizó con el cemento resinoso autoadhesivo Maxcem Elite (Kerr). Se obtuvieron especímenes de aproximadamente 1 mm2 de área transversal (n = 26 especímenes por grupo) con una máquina de corte tipo IsoMet y se almacenaron en agua desti- lada por 24 horas a 37 °C. La prueba de microtensión se realizó haciendo uso de un microtensiómetro (Microtensile Tester - Bisco). Para el análisis estadís- tico se utilizaron las pruebas de Anova y Tukey, donde p < 0,001. Resultados: Los valores de la media y de la desviación estándar, para la variable resistencia a la microtensión de cada grupo, fueron las siguientes: para el G1 sin microarenado, 7,03 (± 2,94) Mpa; para el G2, microare- nado con 25 µm: 4,63 (± 1,28) Mpa; para el G3, microarenado con 50 µm: 4,56 (± 1,40) Mpa; y para el G4, microarenado con 90 µm: 5,93 (± 1,39) Mpa. Conclu- sión: La resistencia de unión entre el grupo que no recibió ningún tratamiento de superficie y el que empleó partículas de 90 µm es similar, razón por la cual se podría prescindir del microarenado como tratamiento de superficie. Además, la resistencia de unión del grupo que empleó partículas de 90 µm es superior a los grupos que emplearon 25 y 50 µm. (AU)


Objective: To compare the micro-tensile bond strength of dentine and the labora-tory composite "Ceramage" (Shofu), sand-blasted with 25, 50 and 90 micrometer aluminum oxide, and a control group not subjected to sandblasting. Materials and methods: 12 third molars were used, 3 in each group. The surface of the occlusal enamel was cut with a 22 mm bioac-tive diamond disc (BesQual), exposing a flat surface of dentin. 12 blocks of the laboratory composite Ceramage (Shofu) were manufactured in a cylin-drical Teflon mold with a diameter of 8 mm and a height of 4 mm. There were 4 study groups (3 blocks per group), upon which the following surface treatments were randomly performed: (g1): without sandblasting (c ontrol group); (g2): with 25 µm al2o3 (zhermack); (g3): with 50 µm al2o3 (bioart) and (g4): with 90 µm Al2O3 (Bioart). The cementation was made using Maxcem elite (Kerr) self-adhesive resin cement. Specimens of approximately 1 mm2 in cross-sectional area (n=26 specimens by group) were obtained using an IsoMet type cutting machine and stored in distilled water for 24 hours at 37°C. The micro-tensile test was performed using a Micro-tensile tester machine (Bisco). The Anova and Tukey tests were applied to the statis-tical analysis (p <0.001). Results: The mean and standard deviation values for the micro-tensile bond strength of each group were as follows: f or group 1 (g1) without sandblasting: 7.03 (+ 2.94) Mpa; for group 2 (G2) sandblasted with 25 µm: 4.63 (+ 1.28) Mpa; for group 3 (g3) sandblasted with 50 µm: 4.56 (+ 1.40) Mpa; and for group 4 (G4) sandblasted with 90 µm: 5.93 (+ 1.39) Mpa. Conclu-sions: The micro-tensile bond strength of the group which did not receive any surface treatment and the group subjected to 90 µm particles is similar, indicating that sandblasting could be dispensed with as a surface treatment. Also, the micro-tensile bond strength of the group subjected to 90 µm particles is superior to that of the groups subjected to 25 and 50 µm. (AU)

ABSTRACT

RESUMEN: Antecedentes: Gen fimA de Porphyromonas gingivalis es un importante factor de virulencia asociado al desarrollo y la progresión de periodontitis. Objetivo: Cuantificar los niveles de P. gingivalis y la prevalencia de genotipos fimA en pacientes chilenos con diferentes grados de severidad de periodontitis crónica. Metodología: Se analizaron 135 muestras subgingivales de 45 adultos (15 con leve, 15 con moderada y 15 con periodontitis severa) mediante qPCR para P. gingivalis y genotipos fimA (I-V and Ib). Resultados: Se detectó P. gingivalis en el 73,3% de los pacientes con periodontitis crónica (46,6%, 73,3% y 100% para las formas leve, moderada y severa, respectivamente). El gen fimA se detectó en el 66% de los sujetos positivos para P. gingivalis, siendo el fimA IV y I los genotipos más prevalentes. Además, se detectó fimA IV en el 75% y fimA I en el 62,5% de los casos severos y moderados de periodontitis, respectivamente. Los niveles aumentados de fimA IV se asociaron con periodontitis crónica severa. Conclusiones: Los resultados sugieren una alta prevalencia de P. gingivalis y de sus genotipos fimA IV y I en pacientes con periodontitis crónica. Además fimA IV fue asociado con formas más severas de periodontitis crónica en esta población chilena.


ABSTRACT: Background: Porphyromonas gingivalis fimA gene is a key virulence factor and has been associated with development and progression of periodontal diseases. Aim: To quantify the levels of P. gingivalis and the prevalence of fimA genotypes in Chilean patients with different severity of chronic periodontitis. Methodology: One hundred and thirty five subgingival samples from 45 adults (15 with slight, 15 with moderate and 15 with severe chronic periodontitis, respectively) were analyzed by qPCR for P. gingivalis and fimA genotypes (I-V and Ib). Results: P. gingivalis was detected in 73.3% of patients (46.6%, 73.3% and 100% of patients with slight, moderate and severe chronic periodontitis, respectively). The genotype fimA was detected in 66% of positive subjects for P. gingivalis, whereas fimA IV and I were the most prevalent genotypes. In addition, fimA IV was detected in 75% and fimA I in 62.5% of severe and moderate cases, respectively. Increased levels of fimA IV were associated with severe chronic periodontitis. Conclusions: These findings suggest that there is a high prevalence of P. gingivalis and its fimA IV and I genotypes in chronic periodontitis patients. Furthermore, fimA IV was associated with severe chronic periodontitis in this Chilean population.

ABSTRACT

El quiste óseo solitario es una lesión seudotumoral que se presenta predominantemente en la metáfisis de huesos largos de niños y adolescentes. El tratamiento actual estándar es el injerto óseo autólogo, sin embargo, sus tasas de no unión, morbilidad en el sitio de toma del injerto y la limitada cantidad con que se cuenta, así como, la no presencia de un banco de tejidos, fomentan el surgimiento de diferentes alternativas al mismo. Se presentaron dos pacientes en los cuales se utilizó la hidroxiapatita HAP-200 como sostén en la resección de seudotumores óseos benignos, teniendo en cuenta la curación ósea y la reincorporación rápida a la vida social. Se le realizaron exámenes clínicos, radiográficos y posteriormente histopatológicos que permitieron confirmar el diagnóstico, para luego realizar curetaje quirúrgico o exéresis de la lesión y relleno de la cavidad con hidroxiapatita. En todos los casos en los que se realizó este tipo de tratamiento tuvo efectividad máxima la terapéutica utilizada como alternativa de injerto óseo con una respuesta hueso-implantación u osteointegración. Los pacientes tuvieron una excelente resolución ósea, lo que confirmó la alta biocompatibilidad y poder osteoconductor de la hidroxiapatita porosa coralina HAP-200.


The solitary bone cyst is a tumor lesion that occurs predominantly in the metaphyses of long bones in children and adolescents. The current standard treatment is autologous bone graft, however, their rates of nonunion, morbidity site takes the graft and the limited amount that is counted and the non-presence of a tissue bank, encourage emergence of alternatives. Two patients, in whom hydroxyapatite HAP-200 was used as a support in the resection of benign bone pseudotumors, considering bone healing and rapid return to social life were presented. Clinical, radiographic and histopathological examinations were performed subsequently that allowed to confirm the diagnosis, and then make surgical performance or excision of the lesion and filling the cavity with hydroxyapatite. In all cases in which this type of therapy was performed a great effectiveness of the treatment was observed as an alternative therapy for bone graft with a bone-implantation or osseointegration response. Patients had excellent bone resolution, which confirmed the high biocompatibility and osteoconductive power of coral porous hydroxyapatite HAP-200.

ABSTRACT

La eminencia intercondílea o espina tibial, está entre las carillas articulares interna y externa de la superficie superior del extremo proximal de la tibia. Las fracturas a este nivel aparecen con mayor frecuencia en niños de 8 a 13 años y por lo común no se las detecta en menores de 7 años, son esencialmente avulsiones de los ligamentos cruzados con un fragmento de hueso unido. Se presentó una paciente de 13 años de edad que sufrió un accidente del tránsito, en el cual recibe trauma de rodilla izquierda, diagnosticándole una fractura de la eminencia intercondilea. Se le realizó reducción y osteosíntesis con micro tornillo AO a través de una vía de acceso anteromedial. La evolución fue satisfactoria, alcanzando una adecuada fijación de la fractura, así como, una recuperación funcional total. Este tipo de fractura requiere un diagnóstico preciso, puede ser tratada conservadoramente, pero con el tratamiento quirúrgico se obtienen excelentes resultados.


The intercondylar eminence or tibia spine is between the inner and outer of the upper surface of the proximal end of the tibia. Fractures at this level appear more frequently in children aged 8-13 years, and usually they are not detected under seven years old. These fractures are essentially avulsions of the crossed ligaments with joint bone fragment. A 13- year-old patient was presented, who suffered a traffic accident, and as a result of this she got a left knee trauma. A fracture of the intercondylar eminence was diagnosed. The patient underwent reduction and internal fixation with AO micro screw through an anteromedial access. The evolution was satisfactory, achieving adequate fracture fixation, as well as full functional recovery. This is a type of fracture that requires an accurate diagnosis and can be treated conservatively, but with surgery excellent results can be achieved.

ABSTRACT

Aims: To determine the frequency of viral pathogens causing upper respiratory tract infections in non-hospitalized, symptomatic adults in the city of Rio de Janeiro. Methods: Respiratory samples (nasal/throat swabs) were collected between August 2010 and November 2012 and real time PCR was used to detect different viral pathogens. Results: Viruses were detected in 32.1% (43/134) of samples from 101 patients. Specifically, 9% (12/134) were positive for HBoV, 8.2% (11/134) were positive for HAdV, 5.2% (7/134) were positive for HRV, and 1.5% (2/134) were positive for FLUBV or HMPV, as single infections. HRSV-A, HPIV-3, and HCoV-HKU1 were detected in one (0.75%) sample each. Co-infections were detected in 4.8% (6/134) of the samples. Peaks of viral infections were observed in March, April, May, August, and October. However, positive samples were detected all year round. Only 23.3% (10/43) of the positive samples were collected from patients with febrile illness. Conclusion: Results presented in this report suggest that respiratory viral infections are largely under diagnosed in immunocompetent adults. Although the majority of young adult infections are not life-threatening they may impose a significant burden, especially in developing countries since these individuals represent a large fraction of the working force. .

ABSTRACT

En la mayoría de países, las mujeres son discriminadas y no son tenidas en cuenta para llevar a cabo procesos y tomar decisiones en cualquier ámbito, incluidos los procesos ambientales, a pesar de ser las principales administradoras de los recursos ambientales desde las actividades domésticas y de otros múltiples roles que ellas juegan en el hogar. Debido a esto, el objetivo del trabajo fue disminuir la presión que ejercen las labores domésticas sobre el río Orotoy, mediante el fortalecimiento del papel de la mujer como eje social para el mejoramiento de la calidad y estilos de vida ambientalmente sanos. El trabajo se desarrolló utilizando diferentes técnicas de la investigación acción participativa como son las entrevistas, los grupos de encuentros o talleres (ambiental, producción, salud y social), y las encuestas. Como resultado se encontró que la mayoría de las asistentes al proyecto no conocían sus derechos como mujer, su impotancia en lo que respecta a lo ambiental y su importancia como administradoras de su hogar. Finalmente se logró un empoderamiento de la mujer como líder de su familia y de su comunidad con nuevos conocimientos sobre potabilización, producción de alimentos en el hogar y manejo de residuos sólidos que fomentan relaciones amigables con el medio ambiente.


In most countries, women are discriminated against and are not taken into account in carrying out processes and decisions in any sphere, including environmental processes, despite of being the main administrators of the environmental resources from the domestic activities among the other multiple roles that they play at home. Due to this, the main objective of this work was to diminish the pressure of domestic labors over the Orotoy River, through the strengthening of the role of women as a social hub for the improvement of quality and environmentally healthy lifestyles. This work was developed by using different participatory action research techniques such as interviews, group meetings or workshops (environmental, production, health and social), and surveys. As a result it was found that the majority of the project participants did not know their rights as a woman, their importance into the environmental debate and their role as home administrators. Finally it was accomplished a woman empowerment as a leader into their family and community, with a new knowledge about potabilization, food production at home and solid waste management that foster a more friendly relationship with the environment.
