Objectives: To determine the prevalence of helicobacter pylori in dental biofilm in patients with chronic gastritis in the gastroenterology service of Hospital María Helper. Methods: A cross-sectional descriptive observational study was carried out, working with a population of patients attended in 1 calendar year, of the of which only 100 patients met the inclusion and exclusion criteria. It has been made a collection for the variables age, sex, helicobacter pylori in dental biofilm and helicobacter pylori in gastric mucosa biopsy. The relative frequency of Helicobacter Pylori in dental biofilm in patients with chronic gastritis and so exploratory a chi2-square test was performed for helicobacter in dental biofilm and helicobacter in gastric mucosa biopsy. Results: A prevalence of helicobacter pylori was detected in dental biofilm from 66% in patients with chronic gastritis, in tu...

Objective: To determine the factors associated with the level of knowledge about exclusive breastfeeding in first-time mothers attended by teleconsultation of the National Maternal-Perinatal Institute in 2020. Materials and methods: Study with a quantitative approach, descriptive, observational, cross-sectional, and analytical design. The population was made up of a total of 1000 primiparous mothers attended by teleconsultation at the National Maternal Perinatal Institute, taking a representative sample of 240. A reliable and valid instrument was used to measure knowledge in exclusive breastfeeding, statistical association tests were performed and bivariate and multiple Poisson regression model to obtain the raw and adjusted prevalence ratio and their 95% confidence intervals for the associated factors and exclusive breastfeeding categories. Results: a high 75.7% level of knowledge about...
