Beyond Vocation
This study examines the underrepresentation of women in STEMM (Science, Technology, Engineering, Mathematics, and Medicine) within Peruvian public universities and identifies factors associated with women’s program choice. A cross-sectional survey was administered to first-term students across three public institutions spanning Peru’s Highlands, Coast, and Amazon regions. Data from 1142 students (145 women) were used for descriptive analysis of s…
Velocidad de progresión de la enfermedad como predictor de severidad en el síndrome de Guillain-Barré
DPV is a predictor of poor prognosis when it is less than 2 days and with a possible requirement for mechanical ventilation. The speed of progression of neurological disease is a practical and accessible clinical evaluation method that should be evaluated in patients with GBS
Quiste hidatídico subcutáneo
Hydatidosis is a zoonotic infection that can invade many organs in the human being. Nevertheless, the subcutaneous tissue is the less affected organ by this disease. When this disease appears, little symptomatology is observed, which causes prolonged periods of disease associated to delayed diagnosis and a poor answer to the antiparasitic therapy. The central mountain range of Peru is the geographical zone with the greatest prevalence, presumably…
Evaluación del gasto económico de hidatidosis humana en Junín, Perú
The objective of the present study was to calculate the economic loss caused by the treatment of human hydatidosis. For this purpose, a cost analysis of the cases reported in the Junin region of Peru in 2013 was conducted. The total cost (direct and indirect) per patient assisted by the Ministry of Health (Ministerio de Salud-Minsa), the social security system (EsSalud), and private health care was 1,220, 3,051, and 4,090 US dollars (USD), respec…
Implementing innovative financial models in different cultures
Purpose The purpose of this paper is to present evidence about cultural differences between Mexico and China, and analyze their significance when implementing an innovative financial model. Specifically, the authors analyzed the case of the Yunus model (or Grameen model), originally developed in Bangladesh and further implemented in China and Mexico. Design/methodology/approach This paper uses a comparative quantity study to test the cultural dif…
Diarrea recurrente por Cystoisopora belli en pacientes con infección por VIH con Targa
The Cystoisospora belli, before denominated as Isospora belli, is the etiologic agent of cystoisosoporiasis, an opportunistic infection affecting immunocompromised patients, characterized by chronic diarrhea and weight loss. The incidence of chronic diarrhea for this agent, in HIV patients, has decreased considerably. This thanks to the advent of highly active antiretroviral therapy (HAART), which has improved the patient's immune response and de…
Probable transmisión vertical del virus de la influenza A (H1N1)
We report the case of a male newborn, product of a 36 week pregnancy, with diagnosis of congenital pneumonia and with a confirmatory test for influenza A (H1N1) virus, without any other suspicious contact. The mother was admitted to the hospital with respiratory failure and the history of a flu-like episode of 5 days of evolution, during the first days of the pandemic in Peru. Due to the severe evolution of the respiratory process, assisted venti…
Síndrome de Guillain Barré asociado a Brucelosis
We describe a case of a 47 years old male, with a history of 2 days of progressive, ascendant, symmetrical weakness in the lower extremities; a lumbar puncture was performed after the brain CT scan, as well as an electromyography, evidencing pure motor polyradiculopathy with axonal pattern, compatible with Guillain Barre syndrome. Afterwards, he received four plasmapheresis sessions, with clinical improvement from the second session. Due to his e…
