El objetivo de la investigación fue determinar la relación entre la inteligencia emocional y el estrés laboral en profesionales de salud de dos centros de atención médica especializada de Lima. La investigación se desarrolló bajo un enfoque cuantitativo, corresponde a un estudio básico de diseño no experimental, correlacional no causal y transversal. La muestra estuvo conformada por 81 profesionales de la salud de ambos sexos que cumplieron con los criterios de inclusión y exclusión, seleccionados a través de un muestreo no probabilístico por conveniencia. La técnica de recolección de datos fue la encuesta y el instrumento utilizado fue el cuestionario. Para medir la variable inteligencia emocional se usó el instrumento Trait Meta Mood Scale (TMMS-24) de Fernández-Berrocal et al. y para el estrés laboral fue el Inventario de Estrés para Profesionales de la Salud (IEPS)...

Objective. To evaluate oral health indicators in children and adolescents with cerebral palsy in Lima-Peru. Methods. An observational, descriptive and cross-sectional study of a sample of 171 patients from two specialized national referral centers for the 2012-2013 period who met the inclusion criteria. For the Greene & Vermillion oral hygiene index (OHI), decayed, missing and filled teeth (DMFT) and the dental malocclusion (DM) analysis, 126 children (6.0-11.9 years-old) and 45 adolescents (12.0-19.0 years-old) were evaluated. Results. The OHI was 2.55 (poor hygiene) in the 91.8%, regular OHI in the 8.2% and no one showed a good IHO, observing the same behavior in both age groups. The prevalence of caries was 100% and the DMFT was 4.55 ± 1.56; the children registered a DMFT of 4.52 ± 1.537 and the adolescents 4.64 ± 1.626. The DM was present in 74.3%; the children showed a 69,8% ...

Objective: To determine the antioxidant activity of the hydroalcoholic extract of Origanum vulgare through DPPH, ABTS and FRAP essays. Material and Methods: The sample collected from Origanum vulgare was dried, reduced in size and placed to macerate 500 grams of dry sample in 1000 mL of 97% ethanol for one week. After time, the macerate was processed through a filter and concentrated in an oven. The formulations were carried out and the dilutions were analyzed with the antioxidant essays. Results: DPPH Method, the 25% gel showed an IC50 of 98.485 mg / mL equivalent to the dilution of 78.789% and for the Trolox® standard, it presented IC50 of 2.48 µg / mL. ABTS Method, the 25% gel formulation presented IC50 of 3.687 mg / mL equivalent to a dilution of 77.75% and for the Trolox® standard it presented IC50 of 2.99 µg / mL, a difference from the other formulations. The results evidenced ...
