Clima institucional y desempeño docente en la I.E. 3071, durante el aislamiento social. Puente Piedra-2020
La presente investigación tuvo como objetivo determinar la relación entre el clima institucional y el desempeño docente en la I.E. 3071, durante el aislamiento social. Puente Piedra-2020.
La metodología de investigación empleada fue; de enfoque cuantitativo, con un diseño no experimental correlacional, de corte transversal y de método hipotético-deductivo. Para la recolección de datos se utilizaron: el cuestionario Clima institucional y el cuestionario de desempeño docente, fueron validados a través del juicio de expertos (4 jueces) y luego sometidos a la prueba de alfa de Cronbach, así el clima institucional arrojo el valor 0,904 y de desempeño docente fue 0,869. La población censal fue 118 docentes, los datos fueron procesados mediante el software estadístico SPSS versión 22.
Los resultados indicaron que existe evidencia de una correlación significativa moderada (Rho Spearman es ,565) entre clima institucional y desempeño docente, además que el valor de p hallado es menor que 0,005
Use of Andean pseudocereals in beer production
Beer is one of the most consumed alcoholic beverages worldwide; however, with consumers more aware of food's environmental and nutritional benefits, there is a demand for more sustainable and value-added products. Andean pseudocereals (APS) are becoming a trend as gluten-free grains with excellent nutritional and nutraceutical value. Cultivated under the extreme climate conditions of the Peruvian Andes, APS seeds are an excellent source of starch, fiber, proteins, minerals, vitamins, and bioactive compounds such as phenolic acids and flavonoids with antioxidant capacity that provide potential health benefits. This review is a compilation of the information and studies on the general characteristics and potential of the main APS as quinoa, amaranth, and cañihua for beer production. In addition, current evidence of the malting process in APS and its effects on beer's nutritional, functional, and sensory properties are also provided. Based on the research supporting the pseudocereals inclusion for the formulation of foods for celiac people, this review also looks at recent advances in applying APS to develop traditional and gluten-free (GF) beers. Finally, APS's economic, cultural, and social importance in the brewing industry is highlighted to promote the creation and innovation of fermentative products based on their bioactive compounds, thus achieving better commercial exploration of these ancestral grains.Campus Lima Centr

Mental health care before and during the COVID-19 pandemic in public healthcare centers of a Chilean municipality
Introduction Globally, the COVID-19 pandemic has affected people’s mental health care. This study aims to describe mental health care in the first semester of the COVID-19 pandemic of the year 2020 compared to the first semester of the year 2019 in the public health establishments of the commune of Chillán, Chile.
Methods A descriptive ecological study. The treated cases were analyzed in aggregate, considering the pandemic, amount of admissions, the reason for consultation, sex, and age for the years 2019 and 2020. Prevalence, percentages, and statistical analysis were evaluated using non-parametric tests.
Results The prevalence of cases due to admissions to the mental health program in primary health care remained similar between the first semester of 2019 and the first semester of 2020. Most mental health cases concentrate on mood (affective) and anxiety disorders. Statistically significant differences were observed between 2019 and 2020 in the number of mental health admissions for mental and behavioral disorders due to psychotropic substances, harmful use disorders, drug dependence, and personality disorders.
Conclusions It is a priority for Chile to increase coverage in primary mental health care. The data provided in this study show at an exploratory level that the initial situation of the pandemic could have affected access to timely care for the most vulnerable people with mental disorders

Prediction of perinatal survival in early‐onset fetal growth restriction: role of placental growth factor
Fondos FEDERObjective
To analyze the ability to predict perinatal survival and severe neonatal morbidity of cases with early-onset fetal growth restriction (eoFGR) using maternal variables, ultrasound parameters and angiogenic markers at the time of diagnosis.
Methods
This was a prospective observational study in a cohort of singleton pregnancies with a diagnosis of eoFGR (< 32 weeks of gestation). At diagnosis of eoFGR, complete assessment was performed, including ultrasound examination (anatomy, biometry and Doppler assessment) and maternal serum measurement of the angiogenic biomarkers, soluble fms-like tyrosine kinase-1 (sFlt-1) and placental growth factor (PlGF). Logistic regression models for the prediction of perinatal survival (in cases diagnosed at < 28 weeks) and severe neonatal morbidity (in all liveborn cases) were calculated.
Results
In total, 210 eoFGR cases were included, of which 185 (88.1%) survived perinatally. The median gestational age at diagnosis was 27 + 0 weeks. All cases diagnosed at ≥ 28 weeks survived. In cases diagnosed < 28 weeks, survivors (vs non-survivors) had a higher gestational age (26.1 vs 24.4 weeks), estimated fetal weight (EFW; 626 vs 384 g), cerebroplacental ratio (1.1 vs 0.9), PlGF (41 vs 18 pg/mL) and PlGF multiples of the median (MoM; 0.10 vs 0.06) and lower sFlt-1/PlGF ratio (129 vs 479) at the time of diagnosis (all P < 0.001). The best combination of two variables for predicting perinatal survival was provided by EFW and PlGF MoM (area under the receiver-operating-characteristics curve (AUC), 0.84 (95% CI, 0.75–0.92)). These were also the best variables for predicting severe neonatal morbidity (AUC, 0.73 (95% CI, 0.66–0.80)).
Conclusions
A model combining EFW and maternal serum PlGF predicts accurately perinatal survival in eoFGR cases diagnosed before 28 weeks of gestation. Prenatal prediction of severe neonatal morbidity in eoFGR cases is modest regardless of the model used. © 2022 The Authors.

Genetic Platforms of blaCTX-M in Carbapenemase-Producing Strains of K. pneumoniae Isolated in Chile
Objective: To elucidate whether the genetic platforms of blaCTX-M contribute to the phenotypes of multi-drug-resistance (MDR) in the first carbapenemase-producing K. pneumoniae strains isolated in Chile.Method: Twenty-two carbapenemase-producing K. pneumoniae strains isolated from different Chilean patients and hospitals were studied. Their genetic relatedness was assessed by PFGE and MLST. The levels of antibiotic resistance were evaluated by determining the minimum inhibitory concentration of various antimicrobials. In addition, several antibiotic resistance genes of clinical relevance in Chile were investigated. The prevalence, allelic variants, and genetic platforms of blaCTX-M were determined by PCR and sequencing.Results: Out of the 22 strains studied, 20 carry KPC, one carries NDM-1, and one carries OXA-370. The PFGE analysis showed three clades with a genetic relatedness >85%, two formed by four strains and one by eight strains. The other strains are not genetically related, and a total of 17 different pulse types were detected. Ten different STs were identified, the main ones being ST258 (five strains) and ST1161 (seven strains). The isolates presented different percentages of resistance, and 82% were resistant to all the β-lactams tested, 91% to ciprofloxacin, 73% to colistin, 59% to gentamicin, 50% to amikacin, and only 9% to tigecycline. All isolates carried blaTEM and blaSHV, whereas 71% carried aac(6′)Ib-cr, and 57% one qnr gene (A, B, C, D, or S). The blaCTX-M gene was found in 10 of the isolates (4 blaCTX-M−15 and 6 blaCTX-M−2). The characterization of the platform, in seven selected strains, revealed that the gene is associated with unusual class 1 integrons and insertion sequences such as ISCR1, ISECp1, and IS26.Conclusion: In the first carbapenemase-producing K. pneumoniae strains isolated in Chile the genetic platform of blaCTX-M−2 corresponds to an unusual class 1 integron that can be responsible for the MDR phenotype, whereas the genetic platforms of blaCTX-M−15 are associated with different IS and do not contribute to multi-drug resistance
