RESUMO
Objetivo: Determinar la prevalencia de trastornos del gusto en pacientes niños y adolescentes diagnosticados con infección por coronavirus, a través de la evidencia en la literatura científica. Materiales y métodos: Una revisión sistemática de los artículos publicados entre el 19 de diciembre del 2019 y el 20 de diciembre del 2020 en las bases de datos Medline, Lilacs, BVS, Cochrane, SCOPUS y ScienceDirect. La estrategia de búsqueda de información se basó en el diagrama de flujo clásico de PRISMA. Para la evaluación del riesgo de sesgo, se usó la escala Newcastle-Ottawa. Resultados: Se encontraron 443 artículos en seis bases de datos y se incluyó un total de 7 artículos después de la evaluación, según los criterios de selección. Los artículos abordaron la variable de trastornos del gusto en tres formas: ageusia, disgeusia e hipogeusia, y se halló que esta manifestación clínica estaba presente desde los inicios de la infección. Conclusiones: Se ha encontrado una prevalencia de trastornos del gusto en niños y adolescentes diagnosticados con infección por coronavirus desde un 3,3% hasta un 26,9%. (AU)
Aim: To assess the prevalence of taste disorders in children and adolescents diagnosed with coronavirus infection according to the evidence reported in the scientific literature. Materials and Methods: A systematic review of articles published between December 19, 2019, and December 20, 2020 in the Medline, Lilacs, BVS, Cochrane, SCOPUS and ScienceDirect databases. The information search strategy was based on the classic PRISMA flow diagram. The Newcastle-Ottawa scale was used to assess the risk of bias. Results: 443 articles were found in six databases, and a total of 7 articles were included after evaluation according to the selection criteria. The articles addressed the variable of taste disorders in three ways: ageusia, dysgeusia and hypogeusia; finding that this clinical manifestation was present from the beginning of the infection.

Aim: The present study aimed to explore the characteristics of non-verbal communication during the coronavirus disease pandemic. Materials and Methods: An exploratory cross-sectional study was carried out in a population between 18 and 65 years old from Lima. The participants were selected by convenience sampling. A virtual questionnaire of 9 questions was applied on non-verbal communication variable and 3 questions about parentage data. Results: A total of 391 individuals were included. The results of the kinesic dimension indicate that the frequency of gestures and facial expressions (51.9%) and the width of the smile (42.7%) did not change during the pandemic. In the proxemic dimension, it was found that the majority considerably decreased the frequency of kissing on the cheek (74.2%), kissing on the lips (56%) and the intensity of kissing (54.5%). For the paralinguistic dimension, the volume of the voice did not change in most individuals (52.4%) and nor did the speed of speech or articulation of words (57.5%). Conclusions: The COVID-19 pandemic has produced changes in non-verbal communication, the most important being a reduction in the frequency and intensity of kissing on the lips and cheek, while the volume and speed of the voice did not vary greatly. Neither have gestures, expressions and smiling undergone major changes.
