Increased dengue transmission following highway paving in the Peruvian Amazon
Projections of dengue epidemics attributable to climate change in Peru
BACKGROUND: Climate change is expected to influence the risk of mosquito-borne diseases by altering mosquito and pathogen ecology. However, the potential impact of climate change on dengue epidemics has rarely been investigated in Peru. In this study, we projected future dengue epidemics in Peru under various climate change scenarios. METHODS: We analysed 526 033 reported dengue cases from 15 Peruvian states (2016-2023). Using quasi-Poisson time-…
Neonatal mortality inequalities in Peru, 2007–2021
From 2007 to 2021, Peru achieved a decline in neonatal mortality, but pro-rich regional inequalities persisted, and the burden remained concentrated in highland regions. During the COVID-19 period, the downward trend continued while inequalities narrowed, in parallel with reductions in poverty and increases in health expenditure. These ecological findings highlight the importance of monitoring health inequalities alongside national averages to su…
Maternal mortality in Peru
Maternal mortality is a global public health priority, with the Sustainable Development Agenda and the Sustainable Health Agenda for the Americas setting ambitious targets for its reduction by 2030. Despite progress in poverty reduction and increased life expectancy, Peru faces urgent health challenges, including persistently high maternal mortality, exacerbated by the COVID-19 pandemic. To analyze maternal mortality trends and epidemiological ch…
Pathways to strengthen the climate resilience of health systems in the Peruvian Amazon by working with Indigenous leaders, communities and health officers
BACKGROUND: Indigenous knowledge and responses were implemented during the COVID-19 pandemic to protect health, showcasing how Indigenous communities participation in health systems could be a pathway to increase resilience to emergent hazards like climate change. This study aimed to inform efforts to enhance climate change resilience in a health context by: (1) examining if and how adaptation to climate change is taking place within health syste…

Associated factors, inequalities, and spatial distribution of the use of modern contraceptive methods among women of reproductive age in Peru
Two out of five Peruvian women of reproductive age used modern contraceptives. It was associated with younger women's age, younger age at first sexual intercourse, being married or cohabitant, among others. No substantial inequality was found in modern contraceptive use. The prevalence was heterogeneous at the intra- and inter-departmental level. Those departments located in the south, south-east, and north-east had the lowest prevalence. Therefo…
Prevalence of positive TST among healthcare workers in high-burden TB setting in Peru
This study supports previous reports that TB infection is an occupational hazard for HCWs. Prevention of TB transmission through control measures, as well as timely diagnosis of LTBI in this particular high-risk group, is critical for individual and public health
Epidemiología del síndrome de Guillain-Barré en el Perú
This study provides relevant information to better understand the epidemiological behavior of GBS in Peru, and thus ensure adequate patient care nationally
Progreso en Salud
This study supports the literature suggesting that interventions incorporating social networks can have positive effects on HIV prevention and treatment outcomes, including sustained benefits beyond study periods
La vigilancia de los eventos sanitarios a través de los medios de comunicación en el Perú
This type of surveillance has a high potential to identify outbreaks and/or health events not identified by regular surveillance systems and should thus be strengthened. In addition, the results of this tool may help to improve decision-making
Carga de enfermedad tuberculosa atribuible a la diabetes en población adulta de las Américas
Se realizó un estudio ecológico para estimar la carga de enfermedad tuberculosa incidente atribuible a la diabetes en la Región de las Américas. El tamaño poblacional, la prevalencia de diabetes y la incidencia de tuberculosis (TB) en la población adulta de cada país de 2013 se emplearon para estimar el riesgo atribuible poblacional porcentual, que ascendió a 16,8% (IC95%: 10,8%- 23,8%), lo que corresponde a 25 045 (16 050-35 741) casos incidente…
Fenómeno El Niño y desastres naturales
This article reviews public health interventions for preparedness and response to natural disasters within the context of El Niño phenomenon using systematic reviews and a review of revisions with emphasis on vector-borne diseases, waterborne diseases, malnutrition, heat stress, drought, flood-associated diseases, mental health problems, vulnerability of the physical health-system infrastructure, as well as long-term policies aimed at protecting …
Demographic and health attributes of the Nahua, initial contact population of the Peruvian Amazon
We present the case of the Nahua population of Santa Rosa de Serjali, Peruvian Amazon's population, considered of initial contact. This population consists of human groups that for a long time decided to live in isolation, but lately have begun living a more sedentary lifestyle and in contact with Western populations. There are two fully identified initial contact groups in Peru: the Nahua and the Nanti. The health statistics of the Nahua are sca…
Cómo informaron los medios de comunicación sobre la influenza AH1N1 en Perú
We analyzed the characteristics of news issued by communication media (CM) in Peru on H1N1 influenza in 2013, for which written, radio, television and internet CM were reviewed daily. The news were classified according to framing, estimation (educational, informative and with high perception of risk of contagion and death) and scope. A descriptive analysis of the main variables of the study was made. The framing of the news was focused on influen…

Evaluación del impacto de los multimicronutrientes en polvo sobre la anemia infantil en tres regiones andinas del Perú
The aim of this research was to determine the impact of the strategy of multi-micronutrient supplementation (MMN) on the childhood anemia in three Andean regions of Peru. A sentinel surveillance system was established in 29 health centers of Andahuaylas, Ayacucho and Huancavelica (Peru) to monitor a cohort of children of 6 to 35 months of age whom been received MMM for a period of 12 months. Data regarding hemoglobin levels were gathered at the b…
Conglomerado de casos de tuberculosis multidrogorresistente en un colegio del distrito de Ica, Perú
We describe the evolution and features of a cluster of Multidrug-resistant tuberculosis (MDR TB) cases that occurred in 2001, in a school located in a sub-urban area of the district of Ica, Peru. We identified 15 students related before becoming infected with tuberculosis. The mean age of the cluster was 15 years. A total of 12 students were MDR-TB cases and 7 were drug-resistant to 5 first-line drugs (RHEZS). Five out of the 15 cases received at…

Prevalence of HIV, Herpes Simplex Virus-2, and Syphilis in male sex partners of pregnant women in Peru
Pregnant women's sex partners reported lifetime sexual contact with core risk groups, had an elevated prevalence of HSV-2, and demonstrated the potential to spread HIV and other STIs to their partners. Though the prevalence of HIV in the population was not significantly higher than observed in other samples of heterosexuals in Peru, the risk of HIV transmission to their female partners may be exacerbated by their increased prevalence of HSV-2 inf…
Outbreak of persistent cutaneous abscesses due to Mycobacterium chelonae after mesotherapy sessions, Lima, Peru
Outbreaks of rapidly growing mycobacteria have been occasionally described. The article reports an outbreak of cutaneous abscesses due to Mycobacterium chelonae following mesotherapy in Lima, Peru. From December 2004 through January 2005, 35 subjects who had participated in mesotherapy training sessions presented with persistent cutaneous abscesses. Thirteen (37%) of these suspected cases consented to underwent clinical examination. Skin punch-bi…
