El estudio se propuso determinar el bienestar psicológico de estudiantes de dos instituciones educativas (pública y privada) de Gran Asunción. Se empleó un diseño descriptivo, comparativo y de corte transversal. La muestra estuvo compuesta por 189 estudiantes secundarios de dos instituciones educativas de la ciudad de Asunción, seleccionados a través de una técnica no probabilística de muestreo intencional y de participación voluntaria. El instrumento empleado fue la Escala de Bienestar Psicológico de José Sánchez-Cánovas (2007). Los datos fueron analizados a través de estadísticos descriptivos y la aplicación de la prueba t de Student de comparación de medias para muestras independientes. Se utilizó el programa estadístico SPSS versión 20, para Windows. Se hallo en el nivel alto de bienestar subjetivo el mayor porcentaje de estudiantes de colegio público, y en bienestar material a participantes del colegio privado.

ABSTRACT
Mundialmente, en las últimas dos décadas se ha observado un incremento en la frecuencia de las infecciones micóticas diseminadas, con alta morbi-mortalidad, particularmente importante en las infecciones por Candida. El objetivo es determinar la frecuencia de candidiasis diseminada, en pacientes con enfermedades hemato-oncológicas o aplasia medular que ingresaron a los servicios de medicina interna del hospital universitario de caracas, con fiebre y neutropenia, entre enero y septiembre de 2010, realizándose evaluación exhaustiva y tomándose muestras de sangre, además de otras muestras en caso de presencia de lesiones, para el diagnóstico micológico. Se evaluaron 48 pacientes en el período del estudio, diagnósticandose 21 casos (43,75%) de micosis diseminadas, catalogadas como infecciones probadas en 13 y probables en 8 casos. De las infecciones probadas 8 (38%) correspondieron a infecciones por Candida: en uno se aisló Candida albicans y en 7, Candida no albicans: 2 pacientes con candida tropicalis, 2 con candida glabatra y uno con candida guillermondii. Dos cepas fueron informadas como candida spp, y 5 por otros hongos. Las infecciones micóticas diseminadas contribuyen sustancialmente a la morbimortalidad de los pacientes con neutropenia, por lo tanto es fundamental la sospecha y diagnóstico temprano de estas entidades en los pacientes con cáncer de origen hematológico y aplasia medular.
Wordwide, there has been an increase in the incidence of disseminated fungal diseases during the last two decades, with high morbidity and mortality particularly importante in Candida infections. To determine the frequency of disseminated candidiasis in patients with hemato-oncological diseases or bone marrow aplasia and febrile neutropenia. A descriptive, prospective and analytical study was conducted. Patients with hemato-oncological diseases or bone marrow aplasia who were hospitalized at the internal medicine service of the hospital universitrio de caracas, with fever and neutropenia, between january and september, 2010 were included, making torough assessment and taking blook samples as well as other clinical specimen when other lesions were present, for mycological diagnosis. During the study period, 48 patients were evaluated. Twenty one cases were diagnosed (43.75%) as disseminated fungal disease. They were classified as proven in 13 cases and probable in 8. From the proven diseases, 8 (38%) corresponded to Candida infections: in one, Candida albicans was isolated and in 7, Candida non-albicans: 2 patients with Candida tropicalis were found, 2 with Candida glabrata and one with Candida guillermondii. Two were reported as Candida spp. In 5 patients other fungi were found. Dissemiated fungal infections substantially contribute to morbidity and mortality in neutropenic patients. For this reason, awareness and early diagnosis of this disease are crucial are crucial in patients with hematological cancer and bone marrow aplasis.

Congenital microphthalmos and anophthalmos are currently considered rare conditions. Many infectious agents have been previously associated with these pathologies, but rarely Treponema pallidum. We report a case of bilateral microphthalmos in which her mother presented gestational syphilis.
