RESUMO
PURPOSE: The study aimed to explore the role of parenthood at first episode of psychosis (FEP) on recovery, with a focus on potential sex differences. METHODS: Sociodemographic, clinical, and neurocognitive information was considered on 610 FEP patients form the PAFIP cohort (Spain). Baseline and three-year follow-up comparisons were carried out. Chi-square tests and ANCOVA analysis were performed controlling for the effect of age and years of education. RESULTS: Men comprised 57.54% of the sample, with only 5.41% having offspring when compared to 36.29% of women. Parenthood was related to shorter duration of untreated illness (DUI) in women with children (12.08 months mothers vs. 27.61 months no mothers), showing mothers better premorbid adjustment as well. Childless men presented the worst premorbid adjustment and the highest cannabis and tobacco consumption rates. Mothers presented better global cognitive function, particularly in attention, motor dexterity and executive function at three-year follow-up. CONCLUSIONS: Diminished parental rates among FEP men could be suggested as a consequence of a younger age of illness onset. Sex roles in caregiving may explain the potential role of parenthood on premorbid phase, with a better and heathier profile, and a more favorable long-term outcome in women. These characteristics may be relevant when adjusting treatment specific needs in men and women with and without offspring.
RESUMO
We consider unsupervised classification by means of a latent multinomial variable which categorizes a scalar response into one of the L components of a mixture model which incorporates scalar and functional covariates. This process can be thought as a hierarchical model with the first level modelling a scalar response according to a mixture of parametric distributions and the second level modelling the mixture probabilities by means of a generalized linear model with functional and scalar covariates. The traditional approach of treating functional covariates as vectors not only suffers from the curse of dimensionality, since functional covariates can be measured at very small intervals leading to a highly parametrized model, but also does not take into account the nature of the data. We use basis expansions to reduce the dimensionality and a Bayesian approach for estimating the parameters while providing predictions of the latent classification vector. The method is motivated by two data examples that are not easily handled by existing methods. The first example concerns identifying placebo responders on a clinical trial (normal mixture model) and the other predicting illness for milking cows (zero-inflated mixture of the Poisson model).
RESUMO
BACKGROUND: The intelligence quotient (IQ) of patients with first-episode psychosis (FEP) and their unaffected relatives may be related to the genetic burden of schizophrenia (SCZ). The polygenic score approach can be useful for testing this question. AIM: To assess the contribution of the polygenic risk scores for SCZ (PGS-SCZ) and polygenic scores for IQ (PGS-IQ) to the individual IQ and its difference from the mean IQ of the family (named family-IQ) through a family-based design in an FEP sample. METHODS: The PAFIP-FAMILIES sample (Spain) consists of 122 FEP patients, 131 parents, 94 siblings, and 176 controls. They all completed the WAIS Vocabulary subtest for IQ estimation and provided a DNA sample. We calculated PGS-SCZ and PGS-IQ using the continuous shrinkage method. To account for relatedness in our sample, we performed linear mixed models. We controlled for covariates potentially related to IQ, including age, years of education, sex, and ancestry principal components. RESULTS: FEP patients significantly deviated from their family-IQ. FEP patients had higher PGS-SCZ than other groups, whereas the relatives had intermediate scores between patients and controls. PGS-IQ did not differ between groups. PGS-SCZ significantly predicted the deviation from family-IQ, whereas PGS-IQ significantly predicted individual IQ. CONCLUSIONS: PGS-SCZ discriminated between different levels of genetic risk for the disorder and was specifically related to patients' lower IQ in relation to family-IQ. The genetic background of the disorder may affect neurocognition through complex pathological processes interacting with environmental factors that prevent the individual from reaching their familial cognitive potential.

INTRODUCTION: Processing speed (PS) deficits represent a fundamental aspect of cognitive impairment, evident not only in schizophrenia but also in individuals undergoing their first episode of psychosis (FEP) and their unaffected first-degree relatives. Heterogeneity in tests assessing PS reflects the participation of motor and cognitive subcomponents to varying degrees. We aim to explore differences in performance of the subcomponents of PS in FEP patients, parents, siblings, and controls. MATERIALS AND METHODS: Results from tests, including Trail Making Test part A and part B, Digit Symbol Coding Test, Grooved Pegboard Test, and Stroop Word and Stroop Color subtests, were obtained from 133 FEP patients, 146 parents, and 202 controls. Exploratory factor analysis (EFA) was employed in controls to establish the structure, followed by confirmatory factor analysis (CFA) to verify if the other groups share this structure. RESULTS: EFA revealed a two-factor model: Factor 1 for the motor subcomponent and Factor 2 for the cognitive subcomponent. Subsequently, CFA indicated a good fit for the remaining groups with differences in the relationship between the factors. CONCLUSIONS: Differences in the relationships of factors within a common structure suggest the involvement of different compensatory strategies among groups, providing insights into the underlying mechanisms of PS deficits in patients and relatives.
RESUMO
OBJECTIVE: The processing speed (PS) is highly impacted in individuals experiencing their first episode of psychosis (FEP). Conducting family studies can help to determine whether PS can serve as an endophenotype of schizophrenia spectrum disorders (SSDs), offering valuable insights into the prevention and diagnosis of SSDs. METHOD: A comprehensive cognitive battery, encompassing tests for PS, verbal memory, visual memory, working memory, executive functions, motor dexterity, and attention, was administered to a sample consisting of 133 FEP patients, 146 parents, 98 siblings, and 202 healthy controls (HCs). Univariate analyses (analysis of covariance [ANCOVA]) were conducted to compare the different cognitive domains between groups, utilizing sex, age, and years of education as covariates and Bonferroni corrections. Effect sizes (ESs) were calculated for estimating the magnitude of differences between groups. RESULTS: Group comparisons revealed significant differences in all cognitive domains. PS was the most impaired function in patients. Parents and siblings had intermediate PS performance between FEP patients and HC. Large ES were observed in PS between FEP versus siblings, FEP versus controls, parents versus controls, and parents versus siblings. CONCLUSIONS: Despite not meeting all the necessary criteria, the PS observed in FEP patients and their first-degree relatives suggests its potential as a promising endophenotype of SSDs.

Over the last quarter century, increasing honey bee colony losses motivated standardized large-scale surveys of managed honey bees (Apis mellifera), particularly in Europe and the United States. Here we present the first large-scale standardized survey of colony losses of managed honey bees and stingless bees across Latin America. Overall, 1736 beekeepers and 165 meliponiculturists participated in the 2-year survey (2016-2017 and 2017-2018). On average, 30.4% of honey bee colonies and 39.6% of stingless bee colonies were lost per year across the region. Summer losses were higher than winter losses in stingless bees (30.9% and 22.2%, respectively) but not in honey bees (18.8% and 20.6%, respectively). Colony loss increased with operation size during the summer in both honey bees and stingless bees and decreased with operation size during the winter in stingless bees. Furthermore, losses differed significantly between countries and across years for both beekeepers and meliponiculturists. Overall, winter losses of honey bee colonies in Latin America (20.6%) position this region between Europe (12.5%) and the United States (40.4%). These results highlight the magnitude of bee colony losses occurring in the region and suggest difficulties in maintaining overall colony health and economic survival for beekeepers and meliponiculturists.

The objective of this study was to describe the epidemiology of Toxoplasma gondii and Neospora caninum infection by estimating seroprevalence and its association with certain risk factors in goats from Aguascalientes, Mexico. A total of 150 blood samples was taken from 10 farms and serum samples were subjected to enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay indirect test to detect T. gondii and N. caninum antibodies; the association between seroprevalence and some potential risk factors was estimated through logistic regression analysis. The general seroprevalence for T. gondii was 12.6%, observed in the farms in a range of 6.6 to 60%, finding seropositive animals in 80% of them; for N. caninum the seroprevalence was 3.3% and in farms a range of 6.6 to 13.3% was identified and 30% of them had at least 1 seropositive animal. The coinfection was 0.66%. The risk analysis for T. gondii identified a history of abortions (odds ratio 9.25) as a factor associated with seroprevalence; for N. caninum, no risk factor was identified.

INTRODUCTION: Cognitive reserve (CR) has recently been considered a key factor in the onset of a first episode of psychosis (FEP). However, the differences in CR in FEP patients according to sex have not yet been investigated. MATERIAL AND METHODS: CR was estimated among 443 FEP patients (246 men and 197 women) and 156 healthy controls (96 men and 60 women) by using the proxies premorbid IQ, years of education and employment status. A neuropsychological battery was administrated to measure neurocognitive specific domains. Analyses of variance were used to make comparisons between groups. RESULTS: FEP women had greater CR than FEP men. This circumstance was not observed in healthy controls. Among the group of patients with low CR, FEP women outperformed FEP men in the cognitive domains verbal memory and processing speed. Meanwhile, among the FEP patients with high CR, men showed better performance in attention than women. CONCLUSIONS: Differences in CR observed between FEP men and women could be related to a number of specific factors, such as, age at illness onset, education level, and variability in performance in verbal memory, processing speed, and attention domains. These results provide background information about CR in FEP patients that will be useful in the design of sex specific cognitive remediation interventions.

BACKGROUND: Deficits in Theory of Mind (ToM) had been suggested as a possible endophenotype for unaffected relatives of first episode of psychosis (FEP) patients. There are a limited number of studies which have evaluated ToM deficits among the siblings and parents of FEP patients. AIM: This study aimed to explore ToM deficits and its correlates among FEP patients, their siblings, parents, and controls. METHODOLOGY: FEP patients (N=102), their parents (N=135), siblings (N=97), and controls (N=167) were evaluated on ToM performance with the Reading the Mind in the Eyes Test (Eyes Test). Interview for sociodemographic variables of age, sex, years of education, and IQ estimation and neurocognitive tests were administered to all groups. RESULTS: FEP patients had a significantly lower performance on the Eyes Test compared to their siblings and controls. However, no significant differences were found between siblings and parents or siblings and controls. CONCLUSION: Attending our results, we found no evidence for ToM deficits as an endophenotype of SSDs. Furthermore, ToM accuracy may be mediated by interaction with other cognitive domains and play a protective role against psychosis in unaffected siblings.
RESUMO
Arsenic exposure is a significant public health issue, with harmful effects caused by its use in commercial products such as car batteries, pesticides, and herbicides. Arsenic has three main compounds: inorganic, organic, and arsine gas. Inorganic arsenic compounds in water are highly toxic. The daily intake of arsenic from food and beverages is between 20 and 300 mcg/day. Arsenic is known for its carcinogenic properties and is classified as a human carcinogen by different institutions. Exposure can lead to oxidative stress, DNA damage, and epigenetic deregulation, which can cause endocrine disorders, altered signal transduction pathways, and cell proliferation. In addition, arsenic can easily cross the placenta, making it a critical concern for maternal and fetal health. Exposure can lead to complications such as gestational diabetes, anemia, low birth weight, miscarriage, and congenital anomalies. Female babies are particularly vulnerable to the negative impact of arsenic exposure, with a higher risk of low weight for gestational age and congenital cardiac anomalies. Therefore, it is crucial to monitor and regulate the levels of arsenic in drinking water and food sources to prevent these adverse health outcomes. Further research is necessary to fully understand the impact of arsenic exposure on human health, especially during pregnancy and infancy, by implementing preventative measures and monitoring the levels of arsenic in the environment.

Introducción: La menopausia es una etapa, si bien normal, de profundos cambios en la vida de la mujer; la transición hacia la menopausia impone un reto al profesional de enfermería, encaminado a promover la salud, facilitar la transición y apoyar la búsqueda de solución a las necesidades que se presentan. Objetivo: El presente estudio está orientado a comprender los significados de la menopausia en mujeres de Armenia, Quindío, Colombia. Metodología: Se utilizó un enfoque cualitativo, fenomenológico e interpretativo desde la teoría de las transiciones de Meléis. Se efectuaron entrevistas a profundidad a seis mujeres de Armenia, previo consentimiento informado, con muestreo intencional, grabación y diario de campo; la información se analizó con apoyo de la base de datos ATLAS.ti, mediante codificación, categorización inductiva, triangulación y contestación con la literatura. Resultados: Se encontró una percepción negativa de la menopausia por sensación de fogajes, desasosiego, depresión y disfunción sexual; para los síntomas recurren a terapias complementarias y medicación, al respecto, algunas refieren una experiencia tranquilizadora y agradable. Urgen redes de acompañamiento en salud para promoción, prevención y apoyo familiar. Las participantes solicitan programas educativos específicos desde edades tempranas. Discusión: Los resultados coinciden con la literatura en cuanto a la experiencia de las participantes y la necesidad de apoyo y orientación. Desde la teoría de Meléis, la transición es de desarrollo, organizacional, con patrones múltiples, simultáneos y relacionados. La experiencia fue sentida y vivida negativamente, se necesitan espacios de análisis, reflexión y acompañamiento desde edades tempranas, para deconstruir el concepto de menopausia y climaterio como problema de salud, y abordarlo como evento vital y de renacimiento, como apertura a una nueva forma de vivir, con estilos de vida saludables. Conclusiones: Se concluye que la menopausia es percibida y experimentada como una etapa de ansiedad, desasosiego, tristeza y desesperanza, por el poco acompañamiento, deficiente educación y preparación de la mujer; las mujeres adultas "menopaúsicas" son poco reconocidas, rechazadas, y muchas veces solo toleradas por personas cercanas. Urgen redes de acompañamiento en salud.
Introduction: Menopause is a stage, although normal, of profound changes in a woman's life. The transition to menopause imposes a challenge on the nursing professional, aimed at promoting health, facilitating the transition and supporting the search for a solution to the needs that arise. Objective: The present study is aimed at understanding the meanings of menopause in women from Armenia, Quindio Department, Colombia. Metodology: A qualitative, phenomenological and interpretative approach was used, based on Meleis's theory of transitions. In-depth interviews were carried out on six women from Armenia, with prior informed consent, with intentional sampling, recording, and field diary; the information was analyzed with support of the ATLAS.ti database, through coding, inductive categorization, triangulation, and comparison with the literature. Results: A negative perception of menopause was found due to hot flashes, restlessness, depression and sexual dysfunction; for the symptoms they resort to complementary therapies and medication, as a result, some report a calming and pleasant experience; health accompaniment networks are urgently needed for promotion and prevention, and family support. They request specific educational programs from an early age. Discussion. The results coincide with the literature regarding the experience of the participants and the need for support and guidance. From Meleis's theory, the transition is developmental, organizational, with multiple, simultaneous and related patterns. The experience was felt and lived negatively, spaces for analysis, reflection and accompaniment are needed from an early age, to deconstruct the concept of menopause and climacteric as a health problem, and address it as a vital and rebirth event, as an opening to a new way of living, with healthy lifestyles. Conclusions: It is concluded that the menopause is perceived and experienced as a stage of anxiety, restlessness, sadness and hopelessness, due to the lack of accompaniment, poor education and preparation of women; "menopausal" adult women are little recognized, rejected and, many times, only tolerated by close people. Health support networks are urgently needed.

El propósito fundamental del estudio fue caracterizar la configuración de la familias de los pacientes con ECNT, en términos de composición, valoración de componentes del estilo de vida, estructura y tipología, para reflexionar sobre la importancia de conocer el contexto familiar de la persona con ECNT, en el establecimiento de planes de alta y continuidad del cuidado de los pacientes. Se realizó una investigación cuantitativa descriptiva con una muestra de 360 entre 2973 pacientes adultos consultantes de una IPS de tercer nivel de atención, en la ciudad de Armenia. La información fue recolectada a través de encuesta. Los datos fueron llevados a Bases de Datos construidas en Access y procesadas en el paquete estadístico SPSS versión 21. Resultados: Existe gran heterogeneidad en las familias con relación a la distribución por sexo, edad, estado civil, nivel de escolaridad y ocupación. La estructura de las familias es diversa encontrándose desde la existencia de familias unipersonales hasta las conformadas por más de 17 integrantes; familias sin núcleo, y personas con ECNT que viven solas por situaciones como viudez, separación y solterismo. Existen diferentes tipologías de familia en el contexto del departamento del Quindío, desde la familia nuclear completa, pasando por familias tipo asociación, donde se comparte la vivienda con amigos, que incluye familias extensas completas e incompletas, y familias nucleares incompletas. En los aspectos propios de la convivencia de la persona con su enfermedad, se encontró que al haber conciencia de la misma por parte del paciente, este manifiesta tristeza, debido a que sienten que, no obstante haber sido tratados y variado sus hábitos alimenticios, su estado de salud sigue igual. Otros, en cambio, continúan llevando estilos de vida poco saludables mientras que algunos buscan compensación adicionando terapias complementarias a su tratamiento al tiempo que afirman que no todo el equipo de salud les brinda acompañamiento. Conclusión: Es importante evitar procesos de estandarización de cuidado de la salud del paciente con ECNT y de su familia. Se debe procurar que durante el proceso de diseño de los planes de acompañamiento y alta se incluyan aspectos particulares tanto del contexto familiar como de las personas con ECNT; también, se deberían incluir aspectos relacionados con la vivencia y la experiencia de la persona con ECNT para posibilitar el uso de terapias complementarias como apoyo al tratamiento.
The main purpose of this research was to characterize the configurations of the families of patients with NTCD, in terms of composition, structure and family typologies, the assessment of lifestyle factors, and finally, to reflect on the need to know the characteristics of the families and individuals of the person with NTCD, in the establishment of plans of high-continuity care. The research was descriptive quantitative, the subjects constituted by the Families that consult an IPS of third level of attention in the city of Armenia, 2973 Adult patients, there were 360. Samples. The information was gathered through survey. The data was registered in Databases built in Access and processed in the statistical package SPSS version 21. Results: There is great heterogeneity in families in relation to distribution by sex, age, marital status, schooling level and occupation. The family structure is diverse and appears from the existence of single-person families to those formed with more than 17 members, families without a nucleus, people with NTCD who live alone, due to different conjugal situations such as: widowhood, separation, singleness. There are different types of family in in the department of Quindío, starting by the complete nuclear family through association family type, in this case those who live with friends, including complete and incomplete extended families, incomplete nuclear families. According to the experience of the person with this illness, it was found that they know about this disease, there are feelings of sadness, they have felt that despite the treatment chose, their health process remains the same, some of them have modified their eating habits, although, others continue practicing an unhealthy lifestyle, and other ones seek for compensation by adding to treatment complementary therapies and they assure that not all the health staff" provides them assistance. Conclusion: It is important to avoid processes of standardization of health care of the patients with NTCD and their families; that is to say, when designing the monitoring process and discharge plans, it is important to keep in mind to include the characteristics of families and people with NTCD in particular, and include aspects about the personal experience of the person with NTCD and enable the use of complementary therapies to support treatment.
O objetivo principal foi caracterizar as configurações das famílias de pacientes com DCNT, em termos de composição, estrutura e tipologias familiares, a avaliação dos componentes do estilo de vida e, por fim, refletir sobre a necessidade de conhecer as características das famílias e as características específicas da pessoa com DCNT, para estabelecer planos de alta e continuidade de cuidados. A investigação foi quantitativa descritiva, o universo foi constituído pelas famílias que consultam uma IPS (instituição de prestação de serviços) de terceiro nível de atenção da cidade de Armenia, 2973 pacientes adultos, a amostra foi de 360. A informação foi coletada por meio de questionários. Os dados foram introduzidos nas bases de dados construídas no Access e processadas com o software estatístico SPSS versão 21. Resultados: Existe grande heterogeneidade nas famílias em relação à distribuição por sexo, idade, estado civil, nível de escolaridade e ocupação. A estrutura familiar é diversificada, da existência de lares unipessoais até famílias com mais de 17 membros, famílias sem núcleo, pessoas com DCNT que vivem sozinhas devido à várias situações conjugais: viuvez, separação, solteirismo. Existem diferentes tipos de famílias no contexto do departamento do Quindío, incluída a família nuclear completa, a famílias de tipo associação, neste caso a convivência com amigos, e também famílias ampliadas completas e incompletas, famílias nucleares incompletas. Nos aspectos da experiência da pessoa com sua doença, constatou-se que há conhecimento por parte do paciente em relação a ela, sentimento de tristeza, que sentiram que apesar do tratamento estabelecido seu processo de saúde permanece o mesmo, alguns têm modificado seus hábitos alimentares embora outros continuam com práticas de estilos de vida não saudáveis e outros procuram terapias complementares ao tratamento e afirmam que nem toda a equipe de saúde oferece acompanhamento. Conclusão: É importante evitar processos de padronização de cuidados de saúde do paciente com DCNT e sua família; ou seja, que no momento de projetar o processo de acompanhamento e os planos de alta devem estar presentes as particularidades das famílias, em geral, e das pessoas, com DCNT, em particular, e incluir aspectos da experiência e forma de vida da pessoa com DCNT e facilitar o uso de terapias complementares para apoiar o tratamento.

Introducción: el traumatismo de los dientes es uno de los accidentes más dramáticos que le suceden a una persona y su frecuencia en la clínica odontológica es cada día mayor, por lo que se requieren conocimientos en la población para su manejo inmediato y adecuado. Objetivo: determinar el nivel de conocimientos de pacientes con traumatismos dentales. Materiales y Métodos: se realizó un estudio descriptivo y transversal en la población del Área de Salud Pueblo Nuevo, Policlínico Docente “Carlos Verdugo” en el período comprendido del 2009 al 2014. La población estudiada fueron los pacientes que acudieron a consulta de urgencia, con traumatismos en dientes anteriores (215 pacientes), previo consentimiento informado. Resultados: mayor afectación del sexo masculino (65,1 %), así como mayor frecuencia de traumatismos en dientes permanentes que en dientes temporales. La escuela y el estomatólogo fueron las principales fuentes de información acerca del tema (7 % en ambos casos).
