Design and validation of a photographic atlas of Peruvian foods to evaluate the food consumption of children from 6 to 12 months of age
OBJECTIVE: Design and validation a photographic atlas of Peruvian foods to evaluate the food consumption of children from 6 to 12 months of age. METHODS: Quantitative, descriptive, and cross-sectional study. 12 food groups were established according to their nutrient content. The atlas is designed to be applied to mothers, fathers, or caregivers of children from 6 to 12 months of age. The methodology was divided into four stages: i) selection of …
Frecuencia de las mutaciones más comunes del gen CFTR en pacientes peruanos con fibrosis quística mediante la técnica ARMS-PCR
There is significant variability in both the frequency and type of mutations present in our study population and in what has been reported in other Latin American countries. It is necessary to perform studies that use complete sequencing technology for the CFTR gene to identify other mutations present in our population
Caracterización molecular de bacterias patógenas de las vías respiratorias de pacientes peruanos con fibrosis quística
The primary pathogenic microorganisms found in the respiratory tract of patients with CF in Peru were the same as those found in other countries. This study is the first to perform 16S rRNA sequencing as well as MALDI-TOF and MALDI-TOF/TOF analysis of the bacterial pathogens circulating in Peru. The inclusion of proteomic analysis further allowed for the identification of native microorganisms involved in CF
Factores asociados con la actividad física en mujeres mexicanas en edad reproductiva
This study showed that practicing sports is not a frequent form of physical activity among women of childbearing age in Mexico, especially those who are over 20 years of age and those with a low level of schooling. This situation could contribute to increases in the prevalence of obesity and chronic diseases
The impact of changes in purchasing power on food consumption of an urban population in Guatemala City
Repeated measures were obtained in a sample of 200 poor urban households in Guatemala to evaluate the impact of changes in their purchasing power on food consumption patterns. The sample was divided into three income level groups, based on their families’ total per capita expenditures. Results revealed that the purchasing power of the poorest group was less affected between 1986 and 1987 than that of families with relatively higher income. Energy…
Body composition estimates using different measurement techniques in a sample of highland subsistence farmers in Guatemala
This study aims at assessing the accuracy of estimates of body composition provided by bioimpedance (BIA) equations developed for U.S. populations when applied to a sample of Guatemalan farmers. If these equations were shown to have low validity, the second objective was to develop more accurate estimates of fat‐free mass (FFM). One hundred males and females 19 to 45 years of age were randomly selected from four rural communities in the Western H…
