Unfavorable outcomes in tuberculosis (TB) treatment represent a significant public health issue. The aim of this study was to identify factors associated with unfavorable outcomes in the treatment of drug-sensitive and multidrug resistant (MDR) TB, as well as to georeferenced MDR TB patients in Iquitos. A retrospective and cross-sectional cohort study was conducted using data collected from the Tuberculosis Management Information System (SIGTB) between 2015 and 2019. Unfavorable outcomes were defined as treatment abandonment, failure, and death. The sample consisted of 3,601 drug sensitive TB patients and 65 MDR TB patients. Data were analyzed using binary and multivariate logistic regression with a 95% confidence level and a p-value<0.05) were associated with unfavorable outcomes in drugsensitive TB treatment. Regarding MDR TB, TB-HIV coinfection was associated with death (p-value <0.05...

El presente trabajo de investigación se ejecutó con el objetivo de determinar la prevalencia de enteroparasitosis y los factores socio-epidemiológicos en niños de educación primaria de un colegio público y privado de la ciudad de Iquitos, entre los meses de Octubre del 2014 a Abril del 2015; para ello, se analizó 176 muestras de niños entre 6 a 8 años de edad de los colegios “Ruy Guzmán” y “Kairos”,mediante el Método Directo (MD), Técnica de Sedimentación Espontánea en Tubo (TSET) y Método de Graham; además de la aplicación de una encuesta socio-epidemiológica. Se registró una prevalencia de enteroparasitosis de 72,4% en el colegio público“Ruy Guzmán”y el 47,9% en el colegio privado“Kairos”, siendo la Blastocistosis la parasitosis más frecuente con 42,9% y 26,8% respectivamente; asimismo predominaronlas protozoosis sobre las helmintosis. Se encontró...

[ES] Los objetivos planteados fueron determinar la biometría de las semillas, registrar la respiración celular en el proceso de imbibición, evaluar el efecto inductor de la germinación de compuestos químicos y analizar el crecimiento inicial. La respiración celular durante la imbibición se midió por reducción del azul de metileno y del Janus Green B. El efecto inductor de la germinación de cinco compuestos químicos fue evaluado. El crecimiento inicial se registró con estereoscopio. Los resultados mostraron que las semillas tienen en promedio un peso de 520±172 mg, largo de 13,50±1,76 mm, ancho de 10,61±1,14 mm y espesor de 4,68±0,62 mm. Estas variables mostraron correlaciones significativas (r de 0,494 a 0,897 y p < 0,001). Las semillas fueron metabólicamente activas durante la imbibición, el cual se evidenció por la reducción de ambos aceptores electrónicos. El nitr...

The objectives were to determine seed biometrics, recording cellular respiration in the imbibition process, evaluate the effect of inducing chemicals in germination and early growth analysis. Cellular respiration during imbibition was measured by reduction of methylene blue and Janus Green B. The inductor effect of five chemical compounds in germination was evaluated. Initial growth was recorded by stereoscopic. Results showed that the seeds have an average weight of 520 ± 172 mg, length of 13.50 ± 1.76 mm, width of 10.61 ± 1.14 mm, and thickness of 4.68 ± 0 62 mm. These variables showed significant correlations (r of 0.494 to 0.897 and p90% and 65% respectively. Seedling initial growth consisted of six stages and occurred over a period of 22 days after radicle emergence. In conclusion, M. dubia seeds show wide variation in their biometrics (weight, length, width and thickness), but ...
