    Publicación a texto completo no autorizada por el autorEl documento digital no refiere asesorDetermina la prevalencia de hipoacusia en los neonatos nacidos en el Hospital Nacional Dos de Mayo con y sin factores de riesgo auditivo en el período de enero a diciembre del 2014. Es un estudio observacional, descriptivo, longitudinal, prospectivo. Formaron parte de este estudio todos los neonatos nacidos en el Hospital Nacional Dos de Mayo, con y sin factores de riesgo de enero a diciembre del 2014 que cumplieron los criterios de inclusión. Se realizó el seguimiento de los recién nacidos con sospecha de hipoacusia mediante pruebas auditivas como de emisiones otoacústicas y potenciales evocados auditivos de estado estable. Encuentra que la prevalencia de hipoacusia en neonatos nacidos en el Hospital Nacional Dos de Mayo es de 0.3 % de 2490 niños que finalizaron sus exámenes. Concluye que la prevalencia de hipoacusia en neonatos no dista de los porcentajes señalados por la OMS. Los factores de riesgo encontrados son en primer lugar sepsis, seguido de bajo peso al nacer, ictericia, y prematuridad. Los equipos de emisiones otoacústicas y potenciales evocados de estado estable fueron complementarios y contribuyeron a detectar los diferentes grados de hipoacusia dando la oportunidad de una intervención temprana multidisciplinaria y mejorando el pronóstico y calidad de vida.Tesi

    Introduction: Medical students are poorly prepared in health services management due to the use of traditional teaching methods, developed in theoretical environments with poor active participation. Virtual simulated training is an innovative alternative in the learning process. Objective: This study aimed to determine the knowledge improvement in managerial decision-making amongst medical students at the Universidad Nacional Mayor de San Marcos in Peru, after a virtual simulated training. Methods: A before-after cross-sectional design was undertaken among final year medical students to measure their improvement in management knowledge. The simulation methodology was used as a component of the Medical Externship clinical course in which the administrative dimension of a clinical case such as hypoacusis was considered. Results: Of the 79 participants, 48 (60.8%) were female and the median age was 25 years. There was a median satisfaction level of 3.8 and the performance median score was 17. The median post-test rank scores were higher and statistically significant than pre-test rank scores (p = 0.004); post-test scores for males (p-value = 0.05) and females (p = 0.03) were also statistically higher than pre-test scores. Conclusion: The non-clinical simulation experience improves the knowledge on managerial decision making. It also opens opportunities to work on management issues in clinical courses, providing a comprehensive learning experience. On the other hand, it is an innovative experience where a clinical course adopts a management component.Introducción: Los estudiantes de medicina están poco preparados en gestión de servicios de salud debido al uso de métodos de enseñanza tradicionales, llevados a cabo en entornos teóricos y poco participativos. La formación virtual simulada es una alternativa innovadora en el proceso de aprendizaje. Objetivo: Determinar la mejora en conocimientos sobre la toma de decisiones gerenciales entre los estudiantes de medicina de la Universidad Nacional Mayor de San Marcos en Perú, tras un entrenamiento simulado virtual. Métodos: Estudio de diseño transversal de antes-después en estudiantes de último año de medicina. La metodología de simulación se utilizó como un componente del curso clínico de externado, en el que se consideró la dimensión administrativa de un caso clínico de hipoacusia. Resultados: De los 79 participantes, 48 (60,8%) eran mujeres y la edad media era de 25 años. La mediana del nivel de satisfacción fue de 3,8 y la mediana del rendimiento fue de 17. La mediana de las puntuaciones del post-test fue mayor y estadísticamente significativa en comparación a la del pre-test (p = 0,004); las puntuaciones post-test fueron más altas que las puntuaciones pre-test para los hombres (p = 0,05) y mujeres (p = 0,03). Conclusiones: La experiencia de simulación no clínica logra una mejora significativa en el conocimiento de los participantes. Además, abre oportunidades para trabajar los temas de gestión en los cursos clínicos, proporcionando una experiencia de aprendizaje integral. Por otro lado, es una experiencia innovadora en la que un curso clínico adopta un componente de gestión

    Given the highly variable clinical phenotype of Coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19), a deeper analysis of the host genetic contribution to severe COVID-19 is important to improve our understanding of underlying disease mechanisms. Here, we describe an extended genome-wide association meta-analysis of a well-characterized cohort of 3255 COVID-19 patients with respiratory failure and 12 488 population controls from Italy, Spain, Norway and Germany/Austria, including stratified analyses based on age, sex and disease severity, as well as targeted analyses of chromosome Y haplotypes, the human leukocyte antigen region and the SARS-CoV-2 peptidome. By inversion imputation, we traced a reported association at 17q21.31 to a ~0.9-Mb inversion polymorphism that creates two highly differentiated haplotypes and characterized the potential effects of the inversion in detail. Our data, together with the 5th release of summary statistics from the COVID-19 Host Genetics Initiative including non-Caucasian individuals, also identified a new locus at 19q13.33, including NAPSA, a gene which is expressed primarily in alveolar cells responsible for gas exchange in the lung.S.E.H. and C.A.S. partially supported genotyping through a philanthropic donation.

    The objective of this work is to present the CAR SITES business project, which is a solution to the problem of the distrust that the public has in reference to whom to call or go to when one needs vehicular maintenance, and also the lack of knowledge of where to find accessories or auto parts of our vehicles that offer us guarantee and do not cheat us. The proposal is to develop a platform that is open, in which information from workshops that have previously been evaluated with a user rating and a comment forum that can serve as a support or reference for other users is provided. Our proposal is to take advantage of the dynamism of the automotive sector, which is why, with the support of technology, we approach users and workshops or accessory stores through an application which will find previously appraised workshops, accessory stores which advertise their services, offers and promotions which the user can count on this search engine and filter the areas close to where they are as well as read the recommendations of other users and see the qualification they have of their attention, this will help generate confidence for be able to take the service and take advantage of the promotions that are advertised in the application.Trabajo de investigaciónEl presente trabajo tiene como objetivo presentar el proyecto empresarial CAR SITES que es una solución a la problemática de la desconfianza que tiene el público en referencia a quien llamar o acudir cuando uno necesita un mantenimiento vehicular, y como también el desconocimiento de dónde encontrar accesorios o autopartes de nuestros vehículos que nos ofrezcan garantía y no nos estafen. La propuesta es desarrollar una plataforma que sea abierta, en la cual se brinde información de talleres que antes han sido evaluados con una calificación de los usuarios y un foro de comentarios que pueda servir de apoyo o referente para otros usuarios. Nuestra propuesta es aprovechar el dinamismo del sector automotriz por lo cual propone con el apoyo de la tecnología el acercar a los usuarios y los talleres o tiendas de accesorios a través de un aplicativo el cual encontraran a talleres antes evaluados, las tiendas de accesorios los cuales se publiciten sus servicios, ofertas y promociones el cual el usuario pueda contar con este buscador y filtrar las zonas cercanas a donde se encuentre así como leer las recomendaciones de otros usuarios y ver la calificación que tienen de su atención, esto ayudara a generar confianza para poder tomar el servicio y aprovechar las promociones que se publiciten en el aplicativo
