    El propósito del estudio es evidenciar y proponer desde otro punto de vista el enfoque multidisciplinario de la Seguridad y la Salud en el Trabajo que se desarrolla tradicionalmente en las empresas de nuestro país, buscamos apoyar las diversas estrategias que a diario desarrollan e implementan los Profesionales de la Salud Ocupacional, empresarios, Administradoras de Riesgos Laborales y el estado a través del Ministerio de Trabajo para mejorar la calidad de vida de los trabajadores a través de la promoción y la prevención en Riesgos Laborales direccionada por sus Sistemas de Gestión de la Seguridad y Salud en el Trabajo, darle al trabajador un punto de vista donde se evidencie o visualice los efectos de llegar a sufrir un evento laboral, que los lleve a cambiar su cultura de prevención, que eviten y dejen a un lado las prácticas inseguras y se vuelvan facilitadores de la prevención, que identifiquen que esto va más allá de recibir una prestación económica o unas prestaciones asistenciales, que tomen conciencia que un trabajador que sufre un accidentes de trabajo o que con el tiempo ve desmejorada su salud por una enfermedad laboral, sufre consecuencias que vencen barreras contractuales y legales, que estos eventos se trasladan a otras esferas que terminaran afectando gravemente su entorno familiar y social

    La publicación recoge los doce informes finales de investigación presentados por los estudiantes de ocho Semilleros 1 y cuatro Semilleros 2, correspondientes a la convocatoria 2009–2010 y se constituye en el Número 25 de la Serie de Investigaciones en Construcción, si bien este es el primer Número publicado en formato digital que UNIJUS se permite poner a disposición no sólo de la comunidad universitaria, sino también de la sociedad colombiana e internacional, interesada en los temas estudiados por los jóvenes investigadores de la Facultad de Derecho, Ciencias Políticas y Sociales de la Universidad Nacional de Colombia

    Global variations in diabetes mellitus based on fasting glucose and haemogloblin A1c

    Fasting plasma glucose (FPG) and haemoglobin A1c (HbA1c) are both used to diagnose diabetes, but may identify different people as having diabetes. We used data from 117 population-based studies and quantified, in different world regions, the prevalence of diagnosed diabetes, and whether those who were previously undiagnosed and detected as having diabetes in survey screening had elevated FPG, HbA1c, or both. We developed prediction equations for estimating the probability that a person without previously diagnosed diabetes, and at a specific level of FPG, had elevated HbA1c, and vice versa. The age-standardised proportion of diabetes that was previously undiagnosed, and detected in survey screening, ranged from 30% in the high-income western region to 66% in south Asia. Among those with screen-detected diabetes with either test, the agestandardised proportion who had elevated levels of both FPG and HbA1c was 29-39% across regions; the remainder had discordant elevation of FPG or HbA1c. In most low- and middle-income regions, isolated elevated HbA1c more common than isolated elevated FPG. In these regions, the use of FPG alone may delay diabetes diagnosis and underestimate diabetes prevalence. Our prediction equations help allocate finite resources for measuring HbA1c to reduce the global gap in diabetes diagnosis and surveillance.peer-reviewe
