Community participation and domiciliary occurrence of infected Meccus longipennis in two Mexican villages in Jalisco state.

The entomological features of Chagas disease in two western Mexican villages were analyzed through triatomines collection by the inhabitants and active research in the peridomicile. The inhabitant collections have the following comparable characteristics: 1) Meccus longipennis was the dominant species (> 91%), 2) around 43% of the insects were collected indoors, 3) about 70% of triatomines were adults, 4) cumulated rates of infestation of the dwellings reached 40-50%, 5) the triatomine infection rate by Trypanosoma cruzi was > 50%, and 6) the indoor triatomines frequently feed on humans (range 38.5-56.2%). However, the collection was twice as abundant in the first village and the peridomicile infestation, evaluated by the active collection, reached up to 60% and only 4.9% in the other village. Furthermore, females predominated in the first village, whereas males in the other. The current results allow discussing the course of action to prevent Chagas disease in this region.

[Knowledge about HIV/AIDS in young people from indigenous migrant day laborer families in Colima and Nayarit]. / Conocimientos sobre el VIH/sida en jóvenes de familias jornaleras migrantes indígenas en Colima y Nayarit.

Objective: to explore the pattern of knowledge about HIV/AIDS among young native migrant farm workers. Methods: analytical crosscut study. Sample: 135 young people selected by propositive sampling. A questionnaire about knowledge of HIV/AIDS and socio-demographics was applied. A descriptive analysis was made and a knowledge pattern was estimated by means of factorial analysis. Results: average age 19.9 ± 5.8, men 54.8 %, bilingual 79.4 %, elementary or no education, 78.7 %, single 60.4 %, Catholic 67.6 %, two or more work trips 61.8 %; 80.7 % had heard about HIV/AIDS, especially from informal information sources (72 %). Knowledge pattern was homogenous (greater consensus in Nayarit than in Colima: 6.2 versus 3.8) and directed towards building risk identities based on personage (prostitutes 88.1%, men having sex with other men 45 %) and urban setting (78 %). It includes uncertainty about the effectiveness of condoms, the mosquito as a vector, and dentists as transmitters. The pattern showed significant differences according to sex, education and migrant experience. Conclusions: the knowledge of young people does not favor safe sex practices, and the low risk perception could favor their vulnerability to HIV/AIDS.

Objetivo: explorar el patrón de conocimientos sobre VIH/sida en jóvenes indígenas jornaleros migrantes. Métodos: : estudio transversal analítico de 135 jóvenes seleccionados por muestreo propositivo. Se aplicó cuestionario sociodemográfico y de conocimientos de VIH/sida. Se realizó análisis descriptivo y se estimó un patrón de conocimientos mediante análisis factorial.

El 80.7 % escuchó hablar de VIH/sida. El patrón de conocimientos fue homogéneo (consenso mayor en Nayarit que en Colima: 6.2 versus 3.8) y orientado a construir identidades de riesgo basadas en personajes (trabajadoras sexuales 88.1 %, hombres que tienen sexo con hombres 45 %) y contexto urbano (78 %).

Patrón con diferencias significativas por sexo, escolaridad y experiencia migratoria.
