To determine the relationship between physical activity and eating habits with academic stress in medical students at the National University of Trujilloin a COVID-19 pandemic. Materials and Methods: Non-experimental study, descriptive correlational type and cross-sectional; evaluated in 174 undergraduate medical students from the National University of Trujillo in a COVID-19 pandemic. The short version IPAQ questionnaire, the university eating habits questionnaire and the SISCO-SV inventory were applied. Results: It was found that 57.5% of the students presented low physical activity; 70.7%, adequate eating habits; and 74.4%, moderate academic stress. In the statistical analysis using the Chi square test, the relationship between physical activity and academic stress was obtained with a value of p = 0.0659; on the other hand, the relationship between eating habits and academic stress wa...

The atypical carcinoid (AC) of thymus is the most aggressive and uncommon neoplasm in the anterior mediastinum, that belongs to the neuroendocrine primary tumors of thymus. Most patients are asymptomatic and according to the disease extension they may present with cough, dyspnea, chest pain, and superior cava vein syndrome. This non-specific clinical presentation reduces the likelihood for making an early diagnosis; and this, together with disease stage and lack of surgical resection reduces the survival rate. The aim of this paper is to describe the clinical presentation in a 39-year old male with thymus carcinoid whose diagnosis was based on histopathological studies (carcinoid morphology, 0-1/2 mitoses/mm2 ), necrosis, Ki67, 12%), and immunophenotypic tumor markers [CD56(+), Pankeratin (+), Synaptophysin (+), and TTF-1 (-)].
