Objetivo: Determinar la precisión del dimorfismo sexual a través del análisis morfométrico de bóvedas palatinas en cráneos procedentes del Laboratorio de Investigación Forense del Equipo Forense Especializado (EFE) de Ayacucho – Perú. Materiales y métodos: el estudio se desarrolló en 43 cráneos con sexo biológico preestablecido, (24 = masculino y 19 = femenino). Se realizaron mediciones de la longitud y ancho palatino y se calculó el índice palatino. Resultados: el ancho palatino presenta una media de 3,43 (+ 0,31) cm. para el sexo masculino y 3,62 (+ 0,25) cm. para el femenino y en la longitud palatina se establece una media de 5,07 (+ 0,44) cm. para masculino y 4,79 (+ 0,41) cm. en el femenino; en el índice palatino, el 100% de los cráneos de sexo masculino corresponden al paladar duro estrecho y en el femenino un 73,7% al estrecho, un 21% al intermedio y un 5,3% al a...

Bullying is a contemporary social phenomenon that impacts multiple social structures and contexts. This study aimed to establish the association between executive functions (EF) and social cognition in adolescents. A cross-sectional descriptive study with a sample of 109 subjects was selected by convenience sampling. Multinomial logistic regression was performed, finding that social cognition is a protective factor (OR: 0.17 IC 95% 0.05-0.59) (OR: 0.27 IC 95% 0.08- 0.85) in the group of aggressors to controls; in addition, the group of victims to controls (OR: 0.15 IC 95% 0.05 – 0.42) (OR: 0.30 IC 95% (0.11- 0.82). Thus, adequate social cognition is associated as a protective factor against bullying, and presenting deficits in EF is associated with a threefold increased risk of bullying.

Introducción: la Población Privada de la Libertad (PPL), es considerada una población priorizada para el desarrollo de intervenciones del programa de tuberculosis (TB), al tener mayor riesgo de adquirirla; así, se deben realizar intervenciones cuya estrategia sea la promoción de la salud y prevención de la enfermedad en los centros carcelarios fortaleciendo los conocimientos sobre TB, generando una alta percepción del riesgo de contraerla y disminuyendo el estigma. Objetivo: Identificar los conocimientos, percepciones de riesgo y estigma sobre tuberculosis en una población carcelaria de Cali Colombia durante el 2020. Métodos: estudio observacional-descriptivo-transversal; con 138 personas sin tuberculosis de un centro penitenciario de Cali. Se realizó una encuesta validada por Ahumada y cols., para la medición del conocimiento, percepción del riesgo, estigma y variables socio...
