Resumen: Antecedentes: El ideal de belleza asociado a la delgadez es un factor relevante en la conformación de la imagen corporal y en la conducta alimentaria, lo que hace necesario identificar recursos psicológicos que promuevan conductas alimentarias sanas, particularmente en mujeres. Objetivo: examinar la relación entre apreciación corporal, alimentación intuitiva y estilos de alimentación maladaptativos (contextual, emocional y restrictivo), y el rol de la autocompasión en esas relaciones. Método: estudio descriptivo-correlacional en el que participaron 740 mujeres, entre 18 y 30 años, quienes respondieron las escalas de Apreciación Corporal (BAS-2), Alimentación Intuitiva (IES), Conducta Alimentaria (DEBQ) y Autocompasión (SCS). Se emplearon regresiones moderadas para examinar el rol de la autocompasión en la interacción de apreciación corporal con alimentación intuitiva y patrones de alimentación. Resultados: La apreciación corporal y la autocompasión se relacionaron positivamente con alimentación intuitiva y negativamente con la alimentación emocional y externa. La autocompasión tuvo un rol moderador en la interacción entre apreciación corporal y alimentación intuitiva (β=.006, ES=,0056), emocional (β=-,09, ES=,004), y externa (β=-,007, ES=,003), pero no con alimentación restrictiva (β=-,022, ES=,004). Conclusión: Estos hallazgos confirman el rol amortiguador de los recursos psicológicos, en específico, de la autocompasión, en la influencia que ejerce una baja apreciación corporal en los estilos de alimentación desadaptativos y también informan sobre la importancia de los recursos psicológicos para el manejo de las presiones sociales sobre la imagen corporal en las mujeres jóvenes.
Abstract: Background: The ideal of beauty associated with thinness challenges body image and eating behavior, particularly in young women, thus to identify psychological resources that promote healthy eating behavior can be helpful. Objective: to examine the relationship between body appreciation, intuitive eating and maladaptive eating styles (contextual, emotional and restrictive), and the role of self-compassion in these relationships. Method: descriptive-correlational study in which 740 women, between 18 and 30 years old, answered the Body Appreciation Scale (BAS-2), Intuitive Eating (IES-2), the Dutch Eating Behavior Questionnaire (DEBQ) and Self-Compassion Scale (SCS). Regressions and Moderation Analyses were used to examine the role of self-compassion in the interaction of body appreciation, intuitive eating and eating behaviors. Results: Body appreciation and self-compassion were positively related to intuitive eating and negatively to emotional and external eating. Self-compassion played a moderating role in the interaction between body appreciation and intuitive eating (β = ,006, ES = ,0056), emotional (β = -,09, ES = ,004), and external (β = -,007, ES = ,003), but not with restrictive eating (β = -,022, ES = ,004). Conclusion: These findings confirm the buffering role of psychological resources, specifically, self-compassion, in the influence that low body appreciation exerts on maladaptive eating styles, and also shed light of the importance of psychological resources to manage social pressures to the body image in young women.

Transplacental transmission by Trypanosoma cruzi (T. cruzi) infection can be effectively treated if parasiticide drugs are administered as early as possible during childhood. Furthermore, an ideal situation would be to diagnose the infection near birth in order to avoid the loss of patients during the subsequent follow-up. These situation are desirable due to the maximum benefit of drugs in early stages which, consequently, implies a relevant contribution to eliminate mother-to-child transmission. However, available techniques for that purpose have limitations as being operator-dependent (microhematocrit), require several months follow-up (IgG detection) or specialized laboratories (PCR). In this study we propose to detect specific IgM antibodies (Ab) by developing a capture-based ELISA employing an improved antigen (Ag) to diagnose the transplacental transmission of T. cruzi, and in consequence, to enhance access to effective treatment. Firstly, a new chimera Ag (CP4) was obtained from the fusion of CP1 and CP3 protein, carrying FRA, SAPA, MAP, TSSAII/V/VI and TcD Ag from T. cruzi. Then, we optimized the assay by capturing IgM Ab with a polyclonal anti-IgM Ab and evaluating three Ag formulations to detect specific IgM bound. The formulations were formed as follows: i) F1: CP1 and CP3; ii) F2: CP1, CP3, B13 and P2ß; iii) F3: by CP4. Detection of Ab-binding Ag was carried out using an anti-His Ab since all Ag were expressed with a His-tag. The evaluation panel consisted of sera from vertically infected children under 1-year-old (6 younger than 15 days, 7 older) and samples from non-infected children of women with chronic Chagas Disease. The ELISA assay employing CP4 showed better performance with notable high sensitivity and specificity (92.3% and 93.9%, respectively). Positive and negative likelihood ratios of the test (15.2 and 0.082) suggest its potential clinical relevance in term of post-test probability of infection. In conclution, we developed a standardized and non-operator dependent test to detect specific anti-T. cruzi IgM Ab. Although increased sample size is needed for its validation, our results indicate that this capture-based technique employing CP4 Ag can certainly improve the diagnosis of connatal infection.
