OBJECTIVE: To evaluate the association between migration and physical activity among medical students from a university located in Lima, Peru. METHODS: A cross-sectional study was conducted among second-year medical students from a Peruvian university. Data on moderate- to vigorous-intensity physical activity (MVPA) and migration features were obtained through a self-report questionnaire. To assess the associations of interest, prevalence ratios (PR) along with their 95% confidence intervals (95% CI) were calculated using Poisson regression with robust variances. RESULTS: We analyzed data from 312 students (54.5% were women, mean age: 19.0 years, standard deviation: 1.4 years), 90 (28.9%) students performed MVPA for ≥150 minutes/week, 118 (37.8%) performed MVPA for ≤30 minutes/week, and 114 (36.7%) were migrants. Being a migrant was not associated with performing MVPA for ≤30 nor ≥150 minutes/week. However, adjusted analysis showed that the frequency of performing MVPA for ≤30 minutes/week was greater among those who migrated less than five years ago (PR: 1.43; 95% CI: 1.05-1.93) and among those who migrated to continue their studies (PR: 1.44; 95% CI: 1.06-1.94), compared to non-migrants. CONCLUSION: In our population, being a migrant was not associated with physical activity. However, low physical activity was more prevalent among recent migrants and among those who had migrated to study, compared to non-migrants.

Objetivo: Estudiar las características clínicas y epidemiológicas de las reacciones de hipersensibilidad a los medicamentos (RHM) y su rol con la atopía en un hospital de Lima-Perú. Material y métodos: Estudio transversal analítico realizado en personas que acudieron a consulta externa del Hospital Central FAP durante el mes de junio del 2018. Las variables de interés fueron RHM y atopía. Se calculó una muestra y se seleccionaron los participantes mediante muestreo por conveniencia. Se excluyeron gestantes y aquellos con antecedentes de exantema viral o eritema multiforme. Se utilizó regresión de Poisson y razones de prevalencia (RP), con su respectivo intervalo de confianza (IC) al 95 %, considerándose estadísticamente significativo un valor p < 0,05. El soporte estadístico utilizado fue STATA versión 12.1. El estudio fue aprobado por comité de ética del Hospital San Bartolomé. Resultados: Se estudió a 139 pacientes, siendo el 56,12 % (n=78) mujeres. La mediana de la edad fue 41 años (DIC=13,50). El 19,05 % fue alérgico al ibuprofeno y el 14,29 %, a la penicilina. El 30,37 % que tuvieron RHM mencionaron presentar urticaria y el 19,23 %, angioedema. El 23,08 % de pacientes que presentaron RHM indicaron que estos ocurrieron entre los 30 a 60 minutos de haber ingerido el medicamento. Se encontró asociación entre el ser atópico y haber tenido alguna RHM (RP = 10,38; IC95% [4,45; 24,21]; p < 0,0001). Conclusiones: La frecuencia de pacientes con RHM fue 18,71 %, mostrando mayor presencia en mujeres. Aquellos con RHM fueron más frecuentes de presentar antecedentes de atopía.
Objetive: To study the clinical and epidemiological characteristics of DHR reactions and its role with atopy in a hospital in Lima-Peru. Material and methods:An observational, cross-sectional, analytical study carried out in people who attended outpatient consultation at the "Hospital Central FAP" during June 2018. The variables of interest were DHR and atopy. Asimple size was calculated and the participants were selected by convenience sampling. Pregnant women and those with a history of viral rash or erythema multiforme were excluded. Poisson regression and prevalence ratios (PR) were used, with their respective 95 % confidence interval, a p value <0.05 being considered statistically significant. The statistical support used was STATA version 12.1. The study was approved by the ethics committee of the San Bartolomé Hospital. Results: Atotal of 139 patients were studied, 56.12 % (n = 78) being women. The median age was 41 years (IQD = 13.50). The 19.05 % were allergic to ibuprofen and 14.29 % to penicillin. The 30.37 % that had DHR mentioned presenting urticaria and 19.23%, angioedema.The 23.08% of patients with DHR indicated that they occurred between 30 and 60 minutes after ingesting the medication. An association was found between the atopic being and having had some DHR (PR = 10.38, 95 % CI [4.45, 24.21], p <0.0001). Conclusions: The frequency of patients with DHR was 18.71%, showing greater presence in women. Those with DHR were more frequent to present antecedents of atopy.
