RESUMO

Malignant pleural mesothelioma (MPM) is a rare and aggressive neoplasm of the pleural tissue that lines the lungs and is mainly associated with long latency from asbestos exposure. This tumor has no effective therapeutic opportunities nowadays and has a very low five-year survival rate. In this sense, identifying molecular events that trigger the development and progression of this tumor is highly important to establish new and potentially effective treatments. We conducted a meta-analysis of genome-wide expression studies publicly available at the Gene Expression Omnibus (GEO) and ArrayExpress databases. The differentially expressed genes (DEGs) were identified, and we performed functional enrichment analysis and protein-protein interaction networks (PPINs) to gain insight into the biological mechanisms underlying these genes. Additionally, we constructed survival prediction models for selected DEGs and predicted the minimum drug inhibition concentration of anticancer drugs for MPM. In total, 115 MPM tumor transcriptomes and 26 pleural tissue controls were analyzed. We identified 1046 upregulated DEGs in the MPM samples. Cellular signaling categories in tumor samples were associated with the TNF, PI3K-Akt, and AMPK pathways. The inflammatory response, regulation of cell migration, and regulation of angiogenesis were overrepresented biological processes. Expression of SOX17 and TACC1 were associated with reduced survival rates. This meta-analysis identified a list of DEGs in MPM tumors, cancer-related signaling pathways, and biological processes that were overrepresented in MPM samples. Some therapeutic targets to treat MPM are suggested, and the prognostic potential of key genes is shown.

RESUMO

RESUMEN Objetivo El Programa de Alimentación Escolar (PAE) en Colombia brinda un complemento alimentario para niños y adolescentes vinculados al sistema educativo público; sin embargo, debido a la pandemia por COVID-19, este tuvo que modificar su modalidad de entrega. Este estudio tuvo como propósito describir las estrategias del Colegio CEDID Ciudad Bolívar al implementar el PAE durante la pandemia por COVID-19. Métodos Diseño metodológico cualitativo basado en entrevistas semiestructuradas a docentes, estudiantes y padres de familias, pertenecientes a este colegio. La información fue analizada de acuerdo con un conjunto de categorías establecidas previamente. Resultados Los participantes coinciden en que el traslado de los padres por pérdida de empleo y el no tener dispositivos tecnológicos, influye en la deserción escolar. Por otra parte, el colegio se acogió a la modalidad transitoria del PAE, entregando bonos redimibles por mercado; sin embargo, afirman que no todos lograron acceder a este por desconocimiento del trámite. Se resalta por los participantes que es una ayuda alimentaria, económica y que logra beneficiar a toda la familia, pero se evidencia el alto costo de los alimentos, el desabastecimiento y las dificultades a la hora de redimirlos. Conclusiones A pesar de la pandemia, la institución ha hecho esfuerzos para adaptar el PAE a las circunstancias epidemiológicas a fin de enfrentar el riesgo de deserción escolar y garantizar el complemento alimentario para los estudiantes, siendo valorado por ellos y sus familias.


ABSTRACT Objective The School Feeding Program (PAE, by its initials in Spanish) in Colombia provides a food supplement for children and adolescents enrolled in the public educational system; however, due to the COVID-19 pandemic, its delivery modality had to be modified. The purpose of this study was to describe the strategies of the CEDID Ciudad Bolívar School to implement the PAE during the COVID-19 pandemic. Methods Methodological design based on semi-structured interviews with teachers, students and parents of families belonging to this school. The information was analyzed according to a set of previously established categories. Results The participants agree that the transfer of parents due to loss of employment and not having technological devices influences school dropout. On the other hand, the school took advantage of the transitory modality of the PAE, delivering bonds redeemable by market; however, they affirm that not all were able to access it, due to ignorance of the process. It is highlighted by the participants that it is a food aid, it is economic, and that it manages to benefit the whole family, but the high cost of food, the shortage of supplies, and the difficulties when it comes to redeeming it are evident. Conclusions Despite the pandemic, the institution has made efforts to adapt the PAE to epidemiological circumstances, in order to face the risk of school dropout and guarantee the food supplement for students, being valued by them and their families.

RESUMO

RESUMEN Objetivo Evaluar la adherencia de médicos y enfermeros a la ruta integral de atención materno-perinatal (RMP) en el Hospital Eduardo Arredondo Daza (HEAD) de Valledupar, Colombia, 2021. Materiales y Métodos Investigación cuantitativa, descriptiva y transversal. Se aplicó una encuesta virtual a los profesionales de la salud que desarrollan la RMP. Adicional- mente, se usó una lista de chequeo a 505 historias clínicas (HC), evaluadas mediante los criterios de Cumple (C), No Cumple (NC) y No Aplica (NA) y confrontadas con un formato diseñado previamente por el HEAD. Resultados La encuesta fue respondida por los 12 profesionales de la salud a cargo de la RMP. Un 58,3% tienen dificultades en la implementación de la RMP, el 91,7% de ellos resalta la importancia de recibir capacitaciones y el 45,5% solicita que estas capacitaciones tengan una frecuencia de 2 veces al año; en la evaluación de las historias clínicas, la adherencia fue de 77%. Discusión La adherencia por parte de los profesionales a la RMP es deficiente. Se requiere fortalecer el entrenamiento y la capacitación para mejorar la ejecución de la ruta.

RESUMO

RESUMEN Objetivo Entender la investigación en salud en Colombia como parte de agendas gubernamentales y legislativas relacionadas con el sector salud entre 1990 y 2010. Métodos Se usaron fuentes documentales oficiales como planes de desarrollo, proyectos de ley y otras publicaciones institucionales. Resultados El Gobierno Nacional, el Ministerio de Salud y Protección Social (MSPS) y el Congreso colombiano han puesto la atención a la investigación en salud como un problema público en diferentes periodos presidenciales debido al interés de reducir la brecha entre la investigación y las necesidades en salud. En los planes gubernamentales durante los años noventa se presentó mayor interés en la formulación de una política de Ciencia y Tecnología (CyT) en salud liderado por el MSPS, entidad que contaba con direcciones, comisiones y comités encargados de promover y planear la investigación en salud. En el Congreso, algunos proyectos de reforma al sistema de salud incluyeron iniciativas para formular una política de investigación en salud que no fueron aprobadas. Discusión La investigación en salud es reconocida como fundamental para contribuir a solucionar los problemas de salud. Sin embargo, este reconocimiento no ha sido constante por parte de los actores gubernamentales y legislativos, la institucionalidad en el sector salud ha sido precaria y no hubo insistente interés por formular una política de CyT en salud.(AU)


ABSTRACT Objective To understand health research in Colombia in the context of governmental and legislative agendas related to the health sector between 1990 and 2010. Methods Official sources were used such as development plans, bills and institutional documents. Results The National Government, the Ministry of Health and Social Protection (MSPS by its acronym in Spanish) and the Colombian Congress have focused their attention on health research as a public concern at certain presidential periods due to their interest in reducing the gap between research and health needs. In the 1990s, government plans showed greater interest in formulating a Science and Technology (S&T) policy in health led by the Ministry, an entity that had directorates, commissions and committees responsible for promoting and planning health research. In Congress, some health system reform projects included initiatives to formulate a health research policy that were not approved. Discussion Health research is recognized as a fundamental tool to help solve health problems. However, said recognition by governmental and legislative actors has not been constant and the institutionality in the health sector has been precarious considering that there is no permanent interest in formulating an S&T policy in health.(AU)

RESUMO

RESUMEN Objetivo El Análisis de Situación de Salud (ASIS) es una metodología que se encuentra en implementación recientemente en Colombia. Este estudio buscó comprender la experiencia de construcción, divulgación y uso del ASIS para la toma de decisiones en algunas entidades territoriales (ET). Métodos Entrevistas semiestructuradas a funcionarios de las entidades departamentales de salud; la información fue analizada de acuerdo a un conjunto de categorías establecidas previamente. Resultados Las ET implementan el ASIS incorporando el enfoque de los Determinantes Sociales de la Salud; sin embargo, las capacidades técnicas, económicas y humanas son desiguales para la elaboración de este tipo de análisis; la participación intersectorial y social aún es débil y los resultados generados todavía no orientan la toma de decisiones a nivel territorial. Conclusiones La metodología ASIS aspira a posicionarse como uno de los mecanismos oficiales para generar evidencia que oriente las políticas y la toma de decisiones en salud a nivel nacional, regional y local; existen desafíos a nivel económico, institucional y político para su consolidación como estrategia de útil en la planificación en salud. El ASIS es una metodología de gran relevancia para las ET y debe seguir fortaleciéndose su implementación.(AU)


ABSTRACT Objetive The Health Situation Analysis (ASIS in Spanish) is a methodology that has been implemented recently in Colombia. This study aims at understanding the experience of building, disseminating and using ASIS for decision-making in some territorial entities. Methods Semistructured interviews were applied to officials of the departmental health entities. The information was analyzed according to a set of categories previously established. Results The territorial entities implement ASIS by incorporating the Social Determinants of Health approach; however, the technical, economic and human capacities for the elaboration of this type of analysis are not equitable. Intersectoral and social participation is still weak and the results do not guide the decision making at territorial level yet. Conclusions The ASIS methodology seeks to position itself as one of the official mechanisms to generate evidence that guides health policy and decision making at national, regional and local levels. There are economic, institutional and political challenges for its consolidation as a useful strategy in health planning. ASIS is a methodology of great relevance for the territorial entities and its implementation should be further strengthened.(AU)

RESUMEN Objetivo Evaluar la política de seguridad alimentaria y nutricional de Colombia. Metodología Se realizó una evaluación formativa de tipo cualitativo, con un enfoque académico, que permitió dar validez a la metodología contemplada en la "Guía Metodológica para la evaluación y análisis de políticas públicas en salud"; y a su vez responder a las siguientes preguntas de evaluación: ¿El diseño de la política de Seguridad Alimentaria y Nutricional cumple con la coherencia entre el problema, las soluciones planteadas y las medidas propuestas? y ¿Cuál es el avance en el cumplimiento de las metas durante su implementación? Resultados La Política de Seguridad Alimentaria Nutricional-PSAN- es pertinente y coherente frente al diagnóstico, así mismo, sus objetivos y estrategias están asociados y pretenden dar solución al problema de inseguridad alimentaria y nutricional de toda la población del país, especialmente a los más pobres y vulnerables. Es relevante porque las actividades programadas en el plan de acción del Plan Nacional de Seguridad Alimentaria y Nutricional 2012-2019 están alineadas con las necesidades y prioridades del territorio, con la oferta institucional de cada una de las entidades que participan en el desarrollo de la política. Conclusiones Rediseñar la Política Nacional de Seguridad Alimentaria y Nutricional de acuerdo a la dinámica actual del país en cuanto a los compromisos internacionales, a los objetivos de desarrollo sostenible, al derecho de la alimentación, la soberanía y gobernanza en seguridad alimentaria y nutricional, y al enfoque de determinantes sociales en salud.(AU)


ABSTRACT Objective To evaluate the Food and Nutrition Security Policy of Colombia (PSAN by its acronym in Spanish). Methodology A qualitative formative evaluation was applied, based on an academic focus, to validate the methodology established by the "Methodological guidelines for the assessment and analysis of public health policies." This evaluation inquired about the following aspects: Does the design of the Food and Nutrition Security Policy comply with the coherence between the problem, the proposed solutions and the proposed measures? What is the progress in objective compliance during the implementation? Results The Nutritional Food Security Policy (PSNP in Spanish) is pertinent and consistent with the diagnosis. Its objectives and strategies correlate, and aim to solve the problem of food and nutrition insecurity of the entire population of the country, especially, the poorest and more vulnerable. This policy is relevant because the activities programmed in the action plan of the National Plan for Food and Nutrition Security 2012-2019 are aligned with the needs and priorities of the territory, and with the institutional offer of the entities that participate in the development of the policy. Conclusions Redesigning PSAN according to the current dynamics of the country in terms of international commitments, the objectives of sustainable development, the right to food, sovereignty and governance in food and nutrition security, and the approach of social determinants in health.(AU)

RESUMO

Este ensayo plantea algunos elementos de análisis sobre la investigación en salud en Colombia, como una política pública que se ha configurado desde 1990 con la normatividad instaurada sobre Ciencia y Tecnología. Una serie de ajustes institucionales se llevaron a cabo y se crearon el Programa y el Consejo Nacional de Ciencia y Tecnología de la Salud, además de la institucionalización de la convocatoria como mecanismo de selección de proyectos de investigación y asignación de recursos, de acuerdo con las necesidades y prioridades de los actores del Sistema Nacional de Ciencia y Tecnología. Aunque no ha habido mayores transformaciones posteriores en la gestión de la investigación en salud, excepto la creación del Fondo de Investigación en Salud en 2001, se han venido desarrollando algunas capacidades y, por supuesto, ha habido esfuerzos para formular una política de investigación de salud. Esta tarea, aún pendiente, podría por fin tener una oportunidad con la Ley Estatutaria en Salud, aprobada en 2015.(AU)


This essay presents some elements of analysis for thinking about health research in Colombia as a public policy, something which was formed starting in 1990 with the establishment of Science and Technology regulations. A set of institutional adjustments was carried out which led to the creation of the National Program of Health Science and Technology and the National Council of Health Science and Technology. In addition, it led to the institutionalization of calls for research proposals as a mechanism for selecting research projects and assigning resources in accordance with the needs and priorities of the National System of Science and Technology. Since then, there have been no major changes in the public management of health research, with the exception of the Health Research Fund, created in 2001. However, some efforts have been made to develop some capacities and -so far unsuccessfully- to formulate a national policy on health research. The Statutory Health Act approved in 2015 could be an important opportunity to realize and implement this policy decision.(AU)

RESUMO

OBJECTIVE: Assessing how priorities are established in Colombia in line with international methodologies and from the perspective of Bogotá-based Category A health research groups. METHODS: This study used a qualitative approach; 14 leaders from groups selected via a propositive sample were given semi-structured interviews to obtain a comprehensive interpretation of priority-setting in Colombia. ATLAS Ti software was used for organising information and producing categories from transcripts. RESULTS: Each group had a different research background and came from health research areas such as basic science, clinical science and the wide field of public health. Some talked about their own definitions of health and establishing priorities as related to their own epistemological frameworks. Other leaders stressed that a bio-medical approach still predominated in health research, priority-setting and the inter-national methodologies used for such end. Many recognised the importance of differ-ent social actors (i.e. apart from researchers) becoming involved in defining health research priorities within a scenario emphasising dialogue and coming to agreement. The leaders criticised the national health science and technology system raising questions regarding defining priorities; they stated that dialogue and involvement must be promoted. DISCUSSION: These findings revealed enormous heterogeneity regarding prioritising health research as every researcher has a different point of view due to their experience and backgrounds and the difficulties in researchers' reaching consensus.

RESUMO

Objetivo Evaluar el proceso de priorización de investigaciones en salud llevado a cabo en el país a partir de las metodologías internacionales y desde la perspectiva de los grupos de investigación en salud, categoría A, ubicados en Bogotá. Métodos: A partir de un enfoque cualitativo, se realizaron 14 entrevistas semies­tructuradas a líderes de los grupos seleccionados a través de una muestra propositiva. Con el programa de análisis de información cualitativa Atlas Ti se generaron categorías para comparación. Resultados Cada grupo posee diferentes experiencias en investigación en el campo de la salud. Algunos manifestaron sus propias concepciones sobre la salud y sobre la priorización a partir de sus marcos epistemológicos. Diferentes líderes de los grupos expresaron que hay una fuerte orientación biomédica en los procesos de priorización y de las metodologías utilizadas para tal fin. Un número importante de ellos ha reconocido la importancia de la participación de otros actores sociales en la definición de las prioridades para la investigación en salud, además de los mismos investigadores, dentro de un escenario de dialogo y de concertación. Por último, los líderes entrevistados plantearon algunos cuestionamientos frente a la definición de prioridades y sugirieron la importancia de fomentar un proceso más participativo e incluyente comenzando por los mismos investigadores en salud. Discusión Los hallazgos muestran la enorme heterogeneidad de posiciones frente a la temática de la priorización de investigaciones en salud y las dificultades para alcanzar consensos entre los mismos investigadores.
