The sociodemographic factors associated with organ donation in Peru during 2023 were determined through a secondary analysis of the open database of the National Registry of Identification and Civil Status (RENIEC). The covariates were sex, age, area of residence, and macro-region. Poisson regression was used to evaluate the associations. A total of 13.1% were donors. There was a lower prevalence of donation among men (RPa: 0.94, 95% CI: 0.94 - 0.95). The prevalence of donation was 19% lower among older adults compared to the 18-30 years age group (RPa: 0.81, 95% CI: 0.80 - 0.81). Belonging to a rural area decreased the probability of donation by 62% compared to urban areas (RPa: 0.38, 95% CI: 0.38 - 0.38). The prevalence of organ donation in Peru was low. The groups with the lowest probability of donation were males, older adults, and rural inhabitants.

The present study consists of observing the relationship between immunizations and anemia in children under 5 years of age. Anemia is a public health problem worldwide and Latin America is no exception. Particularly, for the Peruvian case, approximately one third of children under 5 years of age present this disease. The consequences vary depending on the degree of anemia that occurs; Mild anemia being the most common case among minors. In order to combat anemia, the Peruvian Ministry of Health proposes various actions, including vaccination against rotavirus and pneumococcus as some of them. From this perspective, the question arises if there is a relationship between immunization and anemia. For this, taking information from the Demographic Survey of Family Health (ENDES), estimates are made regarding the possession and level of anemia in children under 5 years of age, taking as the ma...
