    During this research, the topic of social awareness was developed with second and third semester students at Corporación Universitaria Minuto de Dios. The objective of this research was that participants faced role-plays where they could find common situations as bullying, lack of respect, injustice or intolerance with others; with the purpose that they become aware of the importance that values as respect, tolerance, justice, and honesty have in their lives. In first place, the constructs are developed: role-playing, social awareness and material’s design that supported the research and were the principal elements that participants developed during the research; it is because the first one were the activities that participants had to do during the session, the second one was the knowledge that the participants had about values and how those values help them to be part of the society, and the last one was the steps and the guidelines that were followed in order to create the activities

    In the elderly the nutritional status in Colombia follows the pattern of Latin America, protein-calorie malnutrition. There are no studies that demonstrate the risk factors for malnutrition in an institutionalized elderly, it is important to identify them since this age group has been increasing in the last decades, being able to identify nutritional alterations in time and thus preventing associated pathologies. In the present study, the nutritional status of the institutionalized elderly adults of the city of Bogota in the year 2017 was determined, characterizing them, establishing the prevalence of malnutrition and determining the nutritional status in relation to gender and age. was studied a sample of 80 elderly institutionalized in geriatric and gerontological homes in the city of Bogota between the ages of 60 and 99 years was screened and perimetric evaluation of the nutritional status was performed using the mini nutritional assessment scale. It was identified that 48% of the sample presented a risk of malnutrition, with a prevalence of 24% and in which women are 1.42 times more likely to show alterations in their nutritional status. Modifying factors such as the type of food, its mobility or considering polypharmacy as a risk for an inadequate nutritional status, it can reduce the prevalence of malnutrition in institutionalized patients reducing the burden for their caregivers, meaning to lower maintenance cost and mainly improving health in this type of population.En los adultos mayores el estado nutricional en Colombia sigue el patrón de América Latina, la malnutrición proteico-calórica. No se cuenta con estudios que demuestren los factores de riesgo para malnutrición en un adulto mayor institucionalizado, es importante identificarlos ya que este grupo etario viene en aumento en las últimas décadas, pudiéndose identificar a tiempo alteraciones nutricionales y previniendo así patologías asociadas. En el presente estudio se determinó el estado nutricional de los adultos mayores institucionalizados de la ciudad de Bogotá en el año 2017, caracterizándolos, estableciendo la prevalencia de malnutrición y determinando el estado nutricional en relación con el género y edad. Se realizó un muestreo en 80 adultos mayores institucionalizados en hogares geriátricos y gerontológicos de la ciudad de Bogotá entre los 60 y 99 años, a los cuales se les realizó un cribaje y evaluación perimétrica del estado nutricional mediante la escala Mini Nutritional Assessment. Se identificó que el 48% de la muestra presentaban riesgo de malnutrición, con una prevalencia del 24% y en el que las mujeres tienen 1,42 veces más riesgo de manifestar alteraciones en su estado nutricional. Modificando factores como el tipo de alimentación, su movilidad o considerando la polifarmacia como riesgo para un estado nutricional inadecuado, se puede llegar a disminuir la prevalencia de malnutrición en pacientes institucionalizados disminuyendo la carga para sus cuidadores, significando un menor costo de mantenimiento y principalmente mejorando la salud en este tipo de población.PregradoMédico(a) Cirujan

    Antimicrobial resistance among migrants in Europe: a systematic review and meta-analysis

    Get PDF
    BACKGROUND: Rates of antimicrobial resistance (AMR) are rising globally and there is concern that increased migration is contributing to the burden of antibiotic resistance in Europe. However, the effect of migration on the burden of AMR in Europe has not yet been comprehensively examined. Therefore, we did a systematic review and meta-analysis to identify and synthesise data for AMR carriage or infection in migrants to Europe to examine differences in patterns of AMR across migrant groups and in different settings. METHODS: For this systematic review and meta-analysis, we searched MEDLINE, Embase, PubMed, and Scopus with no language restrictions from Jan 1, 2000, to Jan 18, 2017, for primary data from observational studies reporting antibacterial resistance in common bacterial pathogens among migrants to 21 European Union-15 and European Economic Area countries. To be eligible for inclusion, studies had to report data on carriage or infection with laboratory-confirmed antibiotic-resistant organisms in migrant populations. We extracted data from eligible studies and assessed quality using piloted, standardised forms. We did not examine drug resistance in tuberculosis and excluded articles solely reporting on this parameter. We also excluded articles in which migrant status was determined by ethnicity, country of birth of participants' parents, or was not defined, and articles in which data were not disaggregated by migrant status. Outcomes were carriage of or infection with antibiotic-resistant organisms. We used random-effects models to calculate the pooled prevalence of each outcome. The study protocol is registered with PROSPERO, number CRD42016043681. FINDINGS: We identified 2274 articles, of which 23 observational studies reporting on antibiotic resistance in 2319 migrants were included. The pooled prevalence of any AMR carriage or AMR infection in migrants was 25·4% (95% CI 19·1-31·8; I2 =98%), including meticillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (7·8%, 4·8-10·7; I2 =92%) and antibiotic-resistant Gram-negative bacteria (27·2%, 17·6-36·8; I2 =94%). The pooled prevalence of any AMR carriage or infection was higher in refugees and asylum seekers (33·0%, 18·3-47·6; I2 =98%) than in other migrant groups (6·6%, 1·8-11·3; I2 =92%). The pooled prevalence of antibiotic-resistant organisms was slightly higher in high-migrant community settings (33·1%, 11·1-55·1; I2 =96%) than in migrants in hospitals (24·3%, 16·1-32·6; I2 =98%). We did not find evidence of high rates of transmission of AMR from migrant to host populations. INTERPRETATION: Migrants are exposed to conditions favouring the emergence of drug resistance during transit and in host countries in Europe. Increased antibiotic resistance among refugees and asylum seekers and in high-migrant community settings (such as refugee camps and detention facilities) highlights the need for improved living conditions, access to health care, and initiatives to facilitate detection of and appropriate high-quality treatment for antibiotic-resistant infections during transit and in host countries. Protocols for the prevention and control of infection and for antibiotic surveillance need to be integrated in all aspects of health care, which should be accessible for all migrant groups, and should target determinants of AMR before, during, and after migration.

    Background: Mortality due to COVID-19 is high, especially in patients requiring mechanical ventilation. The purpose of the study is to investigate associations between mortality and variables measured during the first three days of mechanical ventilation in patients with COVID-19 intubated at ICU admission. Methods: Multicenter, observational, cohort study includes consecutive patients with COVID-19 admitted to 44 Spanish ICUs between February 25 and July 31, 2020, who required intubation at ICU admission and mechanical ventilation for more than three days. We collected demographic and clinical data prior to admission; information about clinical evolution at days 1 and 3 of mechanical ventilation; and outcomes. Results: Of the 2,095 patients with COVID-19 admitted to the ICU, 1,118 (53.3%) were intubated at day 1 and remained under mechanical ventilation at day three. From days 1 to 3, PaO2/FiO2 increased from 115.6 [80.0-171.2] to 180.0 [135.4-227.9] mmHg and the ventilatory ratio from 1.73 [1.33-2.25] to 1.96 [1.61-2.40]. In-hospital mortality was 38.7%. A higher increase between ICU admission and day 3 in the ventilatory ratio (OR 1.04 [CI 1.01-1.07], p = 0.030) and creatinine levels (OR 1.05 [CI 1.01-1.09], p = 0.005) and a lower increase in platelet counts (OR 0.96 [CI 0.93-1.00], p = 0.037) were independently associated with a higher risk of death. No association between mortality and the PaO2/FiO2 variation was observed (OR 0.99 [CI 0.95 to 1.02], p = 0.47). Conclusions: Higher ventilatory ratio and its increase at day 3 is associated with mortality in patients with COVID-19 receiving mechanical ventilation at ICU admission. No association was found in the PaO2/FiO2 variation

    Clonal chromosomal mosaicism and loss of chromosome Y in elderly men increase vulnerability for SARS-CoV-2

    Full text link
    The pandemic caused by severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2, COVID-19) had an estimated overall case fatality ratio of 1.38% (pre-vaccination), being 53% higher in males and increasing exponentially with age. Among 9578 individuals diagnosed with COVID-19 in the SCOURGE study, we found 133 cases (1.42%) with detectable clonal mosaicism for chromosome alterations (mCA) and 226 males (5.08%) with acquired loss of chromosome Y (LOY). Individuals with clonal mosaic events (mCA and/or LOY) showed a 54% increase in the risk of COVID-19 lethality. LOY is associated with transcriptomic biomarkers of immune dysfunction, pro-coagulation activity and cardiovascular risk. Interferon-induced genes involved in the initial immune response to SARS-CoV-2 are also down-regulated in LOY. Thus, mCA and LOY underlie at least part of the sex-biased severity and mortality of COVID-19 in aging patients. Given its potential therapeutic and prognostic relevance, evaluation of clonal mosaicism should be implemented as biomarker of COVID-19 severity in elderly people. Among 9578 individuals diagnosed with COVID-19 in the SCOURGE study, individuals with clonal mosaic events (clonal mosaicism for chromosome alterations and/or loss of chromosome Y) showed an increased risk of COVID-19 lethality
