The New WHO Cut-off Point for Defining High-altitude Anemia may be Inadequate
These findings suggest that altitude-adjusted Hb cutoffs may overestimate anemia prevalence and lead to misclassification of IDA in high-altitude pediatric populations
Association between air pollution in Lima and the high incidence of Covid-19
After adjusting for age, sex and number of food markets, the higher rates of COVID-19 in Metropolitan Lima are attributable to the increased PM 2.5 exposure in the previous years, among other reasons. Reduction in air pollution from a long-term perspective and social distancing are needed to prevent the spread of virus outbreaks
Reordenamiento vehicular y contaminación ambiental por material particulado (2,5 y 10), dióxido de azufre y dióxido de nitrógeno en Lima Metropolitana, Perú
Traffic regulation can contribute to the continuous reduction of different air pollutants. The expansion of this measure could improve air quality and the health status of the residents of Lima
Sífilis gestacional y factores asociados en hospitales públicos del Perú en el periodo 2000-2010
Objectives. To determine the epidemiological profile of gestational syphilis and associated factors in a Peruvian population. Materials and methods. The study is a secondary analysis of data obtained from public hospitals in Peru for the 2000-2010 period. 652,636 pregnant women were included from 37 cities and 45 health centers in Peru. Results. The prevalence of gestational syphilis was 0.7%, while 80.7% reported screening for gestational syphil…
Hemoglobina materna en el Perú
Objectives. To evaluate hemoglobin (Hb) levels in pregnant women from different geographical regions from Peru; to establish anemia and erythrocytocis rates and to establish the role of Hb on adverse perinatal outcomes using the Perinatal Information System (PIS) database of Peruvian Ministry of Health. Materials and methods. Data were obtained from 379,816 births of 43 maternity care units between 2000 and 2010. Anemia and erythrocytocis rates w…
Hemoglobina materna en el Perú
There are differences by Peruvian geographical region in anemia rates. In the central highlands were found the highest rates of erythrocytocis due to hypoxia effect in the high altitudes; however in the southern highlands, erythrocytocis was lower. Severe anemia and erythrocytosis were associated with increased adverse perinatal outcomes
