Grupo Focal de discusión como herramienta para el estudio de las relaciones de género en miembros de una comunidad urbana
This qualitative research with gender perspective aims to illustrate the usefulness of Focus Group Discussion in the study of factors influencing gender relations, based on the conceptions of urban community members. The methodology included focus groups with n=5 women and n=5 men members of the community selected. For the systematization of the data handled Atlas ti 6.2 (Demo) and the stage of reasoning of the testimony was used discourse analysis. The results showed: Gender relations based on the traditional gender represent a risk to physical and mental health of the group being studied. Demonstration of manhood, individuality and promiscuity in the male gender, put them in such risk. In female gender submissiveness may trigger low self-esteem, blaming and mental suffering. Conclusions: This study describes how Focal Group Discussion represented an effective tool during the exercise of community nursing because this kind of technique promoted dialogue and exchange with community members.Objetivo: Esta investigación cualitativa con perspectiva de género tiene como meta mostrar la utilidad del Grupo Focal de discusión en el estudio de los factores que influyen en las relaciones de género partiendo de las concepciones de los miembros de una comunidad urbana.La metodología incluyó la realización de un grupo focal con un total de n=5 mujeres y n=5 hombres, todos pertenecientes a la comunidad seleccionada para el estudio.

ABSTRACT
This article aimed to explore the lifestyle of pregnant adolescents to build knowledge that guides the intervention of community nursing within the system of primary health care. From the methodological point of view, the article was framed within the qualitative paradigm, using the phenomenological approach of Amadeo Giorgi, and four adolescents between 16 and 19 participated. The semi-structured interview was the technique for collecting data. The reading and re-reading of the interviews was the previous step for the discrimination of the sense units using the hermeneutics in the interpretation of the data, and the computational program Atlas.ti in its organization. After the intervention of the community nurse, the most significant results in the majority of the adolescents showed an acknowledgment about the importance of assuming a healthy behavior. The pregnant adolescents did not express interventions of the nurse in regards of the importance of restful sleep, the use of free time or recreation, which led to the need of strengthen the preparation of the community nurse. Regarding factors detrimental to health, it was observed in one of the pregnant adolescents that alcohol consumption persisted during pregnancy, despite having received information on adverse effects. As a conclusion, the lack of awareness regarding the consumption of nutritious foods is an element that affected the optimal diet of pregnant adolescents.

Prevalencia de los factores de riesgo para la salud, en las familias de la localidad de Puengasi II, Quito
En la actual sociedad los estilos de vida que estamos llevando afectan a la salud pública mundial, entre los factores determinantes que refiere Mac lalonde, podemos mencionar los ambientales en primer lugar, ya que existe una irreflexión del manejo de los desperdicios que ocasionan contaminación ambiental, naturalmente esto trae enfermedades de índole biológico. En lo que respecta a los hábitos individuales sobre todo la alimentación, la inexistencia de conducta de promoción y prevención para la salud y la poca accesibilidad de los servicios de la salud, trae como consecuencia el aumento enfermedades prevenibles y disminuye la esperanza de vida en la población
International Nosocomial Infection Control Consortiu (INICC) report, data summary of 43 countries for 2007-2012. Device-associated module
We report the results of an International Nosocomial Infection Control Consortium (INICC) surveillance study from January 2007-December 2012 in 503 intensive care units (ICUs) in Latin America, Asia, Africa, and Europe. During the 6-year study using the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention's (CDC) U.S. National Healthcare Safety Network (NHSN) definitions for device-associated health care–associated infection (DA-HAI), we collected prospective data from 605,310 patients hospitalized in the INICC's ICUs for an aggregate of 3,338,396 days. Although device utilization in the INICC's ICUs was similar to that reported from ICUs in the U.S. in the CDC's NHSN, rates of device-associated nosocomial infection were higher in the ICUs of the INICC hospitals: the pooled rate of central line–associated bloodstream infection in the INICC's ICUs, 4.9 per 1,000 central line days, is nearly 5-fold higher than the 0.9 per 1,000 central line days reported from comparable U.S. ICUs. The overall rate of ventilator-associated pneumonia was also higher (16.8 vs 1.1 per 1,000 ventilator days) as was the rate of catheter-associated urinary tract infection (5.5 vs 1.3 per 1,000 catheter days). Frequencies of resistance of Pseudomonas isolates to amikacin (42.8% vs 10%) and imipenem (42.4% vs 26.1%) and Klebsiella pneumoniae isolates to ceftazidime (71.2% vs 28.8%) and imipenem (19.6% vs 12.8%) were also higher in the INICC's ICUs compared with the ICUs of the CDC's NHSN
NEOTROPICAL ALIEN MAMMALS: a data set of occurrence and abundance of alien mammals in the Neotropics
Biological invasion is one of the main threats to native biodiversity. For a species to become invasive, it must be voluntarily or involuntarily introduced by humans into a nonnative habitat. Mammals were among first taxa to be introduced worldwide for game, meat, and labor, yet the number of species introduced in the Neotropics remains unknown. In this data set, we make available occurrence and abundance data on mammal species that (1) transposed a geographical barrier and (2) were voluntarily or involuntarily introduced by humans into the Neotropics. Our data set is composed of 73,738 historical and current georeferenced records on alien mammal species of which around 96% correspond to occurrence data on 77 species belonging to eight orders and 26 families. Data cover 26 continental countries in the Neotropics, ranging from Mexico and its frontier regions (southern Florida and coastal-central Florida in the southeast United States) to Argentina, Paraguay, Chile, and Uruguay, and the 13 countries of Caribbean islands. Our data set also includes neotropical species (e.g., Callithrix sp., Myocastor coypus, Nasua nasua) considered alien in particular areas of Neotropics. The most numerous species in terms of records are from Bos sp. (n = 37,782), Sus scrofa (n = 6,730), and Canis familiaris (n = 10,084); 17 species were represented by only one record (e.g., Syncerus caffer, Cervus timorensis, Cervus unicolor, Canis latrans). Primates have the highest number of species in the data set (n = 20 species), partly because of uncertainties regarding taxonomic identification of the genera Callithrix, which includes the species Callithrix aurita, Callithrix flaviceps, Callithrix geoffroyi, Callithrix jacchus, Callithrix kuhlii, Callithrix penicillata, and their hybrids. This unique data set will be a valuable source of information on invasion risk assessments, biodiversity redistribution and conservation-related research. There are no copyright restrictions.

Evaluation of a quality improvement intervention to reduce anastomotic leak following right colectomy (EAGLE): pragmatic, batched stepped-wedge, cluster-randomized trial in 64 countries
Background
Anastomotic leak affects 8 per cent of patients after right colectomy with a 10-fold increased risk of postoperative death. The EAGLE study aimed to develop and test whether an international, standardized quality improvement intervention could reduce anastomotic leaks.
Methods
The internationally intended protocol, iteratively co-developed by a multistage Delphi process, comprised an online educational module introducing risk stratification, an intraoperative checklist, and harmonized surgical techniques. Clusters (hospital teams) were randomized to one of three arms with varied sequences of intervention/data collection by a derived stepped-wedge batch design (at least 18 hospital teams per batch). Patients were blinded to the study allocation. Low- and middle-income country enrolment was encouraged. The primary outcome (assessed by intention to treat) was anastomotic leak rate, and subgroup analyses by module completion (at least 80 per cent of surgeons, high engagement; less than 50 per cent, low engagement) were preplanned.
Results
A total 355 hospital teams registered, with 332 from 64 countries (39.2 per cent low and middle income) included in the final analysis. The online modules were completed by half of the surgeons (2143 of 4411). The primary analysis included 3039 of the 3268 patients recruited (206 patients had no anastomosis and 23 were lost to follow-up), with anastomotic leaks arising before and after the intervention in 10.1 and 9.6 per cent respectively (adjusted OR 0.87, 95 per cent c.i. 0.59 to 1.30; P = 0.498). The proportion of surgeons completing the educational modules was an influence: the leak rate decreased from 12.2 per cent (61 of 500) before intervention to 5.1 per cent (24 of 473) after intervention in high-engagement centres (adjusted OR 0.36, 0.20 to 0.64; P < 0.001), but this was not observed in low-engagement hospitals (8.3 per cent (59 of 714) and 13.8 per cent (61 of 443) respectively; adjusted OR 2.09, 1.31 to 3.31).
Conclusion
Completion of globally available digital training by engaged teams can alter anastomotic leak rates. Registration number: NCT04270721 (http://www.clinicaltrials.gov)
