Association between iron supplementation and the presence of diarrhoea in Peruvian children aged 6–59 months
Introduction: According to the WHO, anaemia is a severe public health problem when the prevalence is ≥ 40 %. In 2019, in Peru, 40·1 % of children (aged 6 to 35 months) are diagnosed as anaemic. This is a concern since, despite the efforts of the governments to reduce the prevalence, the problem has stagnated since 2011. The treatment applied to deal with anaemia is Fe supplementation. Although Fe is essential for cell function, an excess can prod…
Developing Visual Messages to Support Liquefied Petroleum Gas Use in Intervention Homes in the Household Air Pollution Intervention Network (Hapin) Trial in Rural Guatemala
BACKGROUND: Household air pollution adversely affects human health and the environment, yet more than 40% of the world still depends on solid cooking fuels. The House Air Pollution Intervention Network (HAPIN) randomized controlled trial is assessing the health effects of a liquefied petroleum gas (LPG) stove and 18-month supply of free fuel in 3,200 households in rural Guatemala, India, Peru, and Rwanda. AIMS: We conducted formative research in …
Exposure contrasts associated with a liquefied petroleum gas (LPG) intervention at potential field sites for the multi-country household air pollution intervention network (Hapin) trial in India

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
A comparative risk assessment of burden of disease and injury attributable to 67 risk factors and risk factor clusters in 21 regions, 1990–2010
Lung Cancer Risk and Workplace Exposure to Environmental Tobacco Smoke
Objectives. We sought to quantitatively evaluate the association between work-place environmental tobacco smoke exposure and lung cancer. Methods. We performed a meta-analysis in 2003 of data from 22 studies from multiple locations worldwide of workplace environmental tobacco smoke exposure and lung cancer risk. Estimates of relative risk from these studies were analyzed by fitting the data to fixed and mixed effects models. Analyses of highly ex…
All-Cause and Cause-Specific Mortality by Socioeconomic Status Among Employed Persons in 27 US States, 1984–1997
Objectives. We investigated mortality differences according to socioeconomic status (SES) for employed persons in 27 states during 1984–1997. Methods. SES was determined for persons aged 35–64 years according to the “usual occupation” listed on their death certificates. We used US Census denominator data. Results. For all-cause mortality, rate ratios from lowest to highest SES quartile for men and women were 2.02, 1.69, 1.25, and 1.00 and 1.29, 1…
Health effects associated with sulfuryl fluoride and methyl bromide exposure among structural fumigation workers
OBJECTIVES: This study assessed the health effects associated with occupational exposure to methyl bromide and sulfuryl fluoride among structural fumigation workers. METHODS: A cross-sectional study of 123 structural fumigation workers and 120 referents in south Florida was conducted. Nerve conduction, vibration, neurobehavioral, visual, olfactory, and renal function testing was included. RESULTS: The median lifetime duration of methyl bromide an…
Incidence of tuberculosis infection among New York State prison employees
OBJECTIVES: This study examined tuberculosis skin test conversions among 24,487 New York State prison employees in 1992. METHODS: Conversions were analyzed by prison and by job category. RESULTS: The conversion rate was 1.9%. Employees in prisons with low and high numbers of prisoner cases had odds ratios for conversion of 1.67 (95% confidence interval [CI] = 1.27, 2.19) and 2.20 (95% CI = 1.69, 2.87), respectively, relative to employees in priso…
Silicosis among gold miners
OBJECTIVES. This study sought to estimate the risk of silicosis by cumulative exposure-years in a cohort of miners exposed to silica, as well as the lifetime risk of silicosis under the current Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA) standard (0.09 mg/m3). METHODS. In a cohort study of 3330 gold miners who worked at least 1 year underground from 1940 to 1965 (average 9 years) and were exposed to a median silica level of 0.05 mg/m3 (0…
Chronic neurological sequelae to organophosphate pesticide poisoning
OBJECTIVES. This work was undertaken to determine whether there are any chronic neurological sequelae to acute organophosphate pesticide poisoning. METHODS. California surveillance data were used in a study of neurological function among 128 men poisoned by organophosphate pesticides in California from 1982 to 1990 and 90 referents. Tests included a neurological physical examination, 5 nerve conduction tests, 2 vibrotactile sensitivity tests, 10 …
The mortality of lead smelter workers
OBJECTIVES. Mortality studies of lead workers have shown excesses of nonmalignant renal disease and cerebrovascular disease. Animal studies and one human study have shown excess kidney cancer. We have updated a mortality study of male lead smelter workers (n = 1990). METHODS. An analysis was conducted using standard life table techniques. The updated analysis added 11 years of follow-up and 363 new deaths. RESULTS. The original study had found el…
Agrarian Reform under Allende
Notes On Feudalism and Capitalism in Chile and Latin America
Our review of Chilean history has shown that it was capitalism, with its internal contradictions itself which generated the underdevelopment of Chile and deter mined its forms; that this remains as true today as it was in the past; that Chile's underdevelopment cannot be attributed to the supposed partial survival of a feu dal structure, which never existed there in whole or in part (Frank, 1967:115
Rural Strategy Under Allende
Chile, unlike most Latin American countries, has a predominantly industrial economy. Only 25 percent of the population lives in the countryside. Only 8 percent of the Gross National Product is generated in rural areas. Such statistics would lead one to think that the agrarian reform carried out under the Allende government would have played an important but decidedly secondary role in the struggle for power in Chile. However, the agrarian reform …
The Allende Years, the Coup, and Aftermath
Two Years of Popular Unity in Chile
The Allende government, representing the Unidad Popular coalition in Chile, has now been in office for over two years. It is time enough to make an assessment of it. The stated goals of the up were to end the monopoly structure of the Chilean economy, break Chilean
