Infancias y colecho en la Argentina: factores sociodemográficos, socioeconómicos y de salud familiar / Bedsharing and childhood: socio-demographic, socio-economic and family health factors / Co-leito na infância: fatores sócio-demográficos, socioeconômicos e de saúde familiar

Resumen (analítico) Se caracteriza el fenómeno del colecho en términos sociodemográficos, socioeconómicos y en relación con las vulnerabilidades específicas de los hogares, tales como la violencia intrafamiliar y los consumos nocivos. A través de la Encuesta de la Deuda Social Argentina y un análisis multivariado cuantitativo, se abordan los siguientes interrogantes: ¿el colecho es una práctica asociada únicamente a los bebés?, ¿resulta más frecuente en contextos de pobreza o se trata de una práctica que atraviesa a diferentes infancias? Se concluye que el colecho no es un fenómeno exclusivo de los y las bebés; que en la adolescencia es más regresivo para las mujeres y que el factor socio-económico remite a un «colecho forzoso¼ que se especifica en interacción con el hacinamiento, la monoparentalidad, los consumos nocivos y la violencia intrafamiliar.

Abstract (analytical) This paper analyses the phenomenon of bed-sharing in terms of sociodemographic and socioeconomic variables, but also considers specific vulnerabilities like domestic violence and addictions. It is worth examining whether this practice is associated only with babies, or else if vulnerable contexts also have an impact on children's and adolescent's co-sleeping. The information was obtained through Social Debts in Argentina Survey, and this quantitative research concludes that in this country not only early years bed-share, the phenomenon impairs teenage girls more often and that the socio-economic factor plays a decisive role. For this reason, we propose the term "forced-bed-sharing", which refers to when co-sleeping is intensified by variables like overcrowding, single-parent family type, addictions and domestic violence.

Resumo (analítico) O artigo caracteriza o fenómeno do coleito considerando variáveis sócio demográficas e socioeconómicas, mas também vulnerabilidades específicas como a violência doméstica ou vícios. Neste contexto, perguntamo-nos: associa-se só aos bebés? Tem mais frequência em condições de vulnerabilidade? Esta prática tem um impacto ou motivações diferentes em relação ás características das crianças? A informação foi obtida através do Questionário da Dívida Social Argentina, e o desenho de pesquisa quantitativo conclui que não é somente um fenómeno exclusivo da primeira infância, na adolescência é mais frequente em meninas e que o fator socioeconómico é decisivo. Por isso, propomos o termo "coleito forçoso", que refere a quando a regularidade da cama compartilhada se intensifica por variáveis como a superlotação, o tipo de família monoparental, vícios e violência doméstica.

Fatiga laboral y ausentismo en el trabajo en mujeres auxiliares de enfermería de un hospital de alta complejidad, Chile / Occupational fatigue and work absenteeism in female assistant nurses of a high-complexity hospital, Chile

Resumen Esta investigación ignifi la asociación entre la fatiga y el absentismo en el trabajo en 110 asistentes de enfermería de un hospital altamente complejo en Chile. Se ignifi un cuestionario sociodemográfico y la escala Check Strength Individual Strength. Los resultados mostraron que el ignific de absentismo predominante fue de 11 a 29 días. Los mayores promedios de fatiga se presentaron en los mayores de 2 años, con más de 10 pacientes en el consultorio y con contrato annual. No hubo diferencias significativas entre la fatiga media en relación con el absentismo, pero hubo una asociación ignificative entre la fatiga física (p = 0,040; OR = 1,054) y la antigüedad en el trabajo (p = 0,001; OR = 1,084) con el absentismo laboral. Finalmente, se concluye que la fatiga física y la antigüedad en el servicio clínico representaron un factor de riesgo significativo para el absentismo.

Abstract This research examined the association between occupational fatigue and work absenteeism in 110 female assistant nurses of a high-complexity hospital in Chile. A sociodemographic questionnaire and the Checklist Individual Strength (CIS) scale were used. The results showed that the predominant absenteeism range was 11-29 days. The highest means of fatigue occurred in those with seniority above 2 years, with more than 10 patients in charge and an annual contract. No significant difference was observed between the fatigue means concerning absenteeism, but a significant association was observed between physical fatigue (p = 0.040, OR = 1.054) and service seniority (p = 0.001, OR = 1.084) with work absenteeism. Finally, we can conclude that physical fatigue and seniority in the clinical service are significant risk factors for the occurrence of absenteeism.

Leiomiosarcoma y colitis ulcerosa: reporte de caso / Leiomyosarcoma and ulcerative colitis: Case report

Resumen Los pacientes con colitis ulcerosa (CU) y enfermedad de Crohn (EC) presentan un mayor riesgo de cáncer colorrectal (CCR), debido a la inflamación crónica, la susceptibilidad genética y los factores de riesgo ambientales. Sin embargo, las neoplasias no epiteliales son infrecuentes. Presentamos el caso de un varón de 83 años con una CU de larga evolución, que presenta una lesión polipoide. Una vez resecada, se diagnosticó de un leiomiosarcoma de alto grado. En la literatura, únicamente se han publicado tres casos previos de leiomiosarcoma en pacientes con CU, por lo que este reporte representaría el cuarto caso. La asociación directa de la CU y el leiomiosarcoma no ha sido bien establecida. No obstante, se sugiere que la inmunosupresión y la inflamación crónica son factores de riesgo.

Abstract Ulcerative colitis (UC) and Crohn's disease (CD) patients present an increased risk of colorectal cancer (CRC) due to chronic inflammation, genetic susceptibility and environmental risk factors. In contrast, non-epithelial neoplasms are uncommon. We discuss the case of an 83-year-old male with a long-standing UC, presenting with a polypoid lesion. Once resected, the lesion was identified as a high-grade leiomyosarcoma. A review of the literature revealed that only three previous cases of leiomyosarcoma among patients with UC have been published. Thus, this one would represent the fourth case where this rare non-epithelial neoplasm was detected in a patient with UC. The direct association of UC and leiomyosarcoma has not been well established; however, immunosuppression is suggested to be a risk factor for leiomyosarcoma in the literature.

Materiales y Métodos: estudio cuantitativo, descriptivo y retrospectivo de los accidentes laborales no cortopunzantes notificados en un Hospital de la red de Salud Publica en Chile.Se analizaron un total de 345 accidentes laborales no cortopunzantes notificados, período de estudio de 2014 a 2016. Resultados: el 76% de los accidentes laborales no cortopunzantes corresponden a accidentes en el trabajo y el 24% accidentes en el trayecto al trabajo. Se presentan en mayor frecuencia en: funcionarios que tienen entre 1 y 11 años de antigüedad laboral, en mujeres (75%), pertenecientes a Unidades Hospitalizados Adulto y Pediátrico (37%) y en el día jueves de la semana (21%). El motivo más común de los accidentes laborales no cortopunzantes es la caída (25%); la parte corporal mayormente lesionada corresponde a manos, dedos y muñecas (26%) y lesión más común es la contusión (44%). Finalmente, se pierden 2127 días laborales, a causa de este tipo de accidentes. Conclusiones: los hallazgos evidencian que los trabajadores se ven afectados por accidentes laborales no cortopunzantes, con predominio de caídas, lesiones en manos y a causa del ambiente de trabajo. Que estos, se producen mayormente en mujeres y en Unidades de Hospitalizado Adulto y Pediátrico..(AU)

Objective: to describe non-sharps work accidents in workers of a Hospital of the Public Health Network, Chile in the 2014-2016 period.

Frecuencia de displasia epitelial y carcinoma escamoso en mucosa oral y orofaríngea en Chile, entre los años 1990 y 2009 / Frequency of oral squamous cell carcinoma and oral epithelial dysplasia in oral and oropharyngeal mucosa in Chile

Background: Oral cancer in Chile corresponds approximately to 1.6% of all cancer cases. There are few studies about oral epithelial dysplasia and oral squamous cell carcinoma in the Chilean population. Aim: To determine the frequency of hyperkeratosis, mild, moderate and severe oral epithelial dysplasia, in situ carcinoma and squamous cell carcinoma of the oral and oropharyngeal mucosa in a registry of the Oral Pathology Reference Institute of the Faculty of Dentistry, Universidad de Chile, in a ten years period. Material and Methods: Review of clinical records and pathological plates of 389 patients, obtained between 1990 and 2009. Cases were selected according to their pathological diagnosis, including hyperkeratosis, oral epithelial dysplasia, in situ carcinoma, squamous cell carcinoma and verrucous carcinoma. Results: Forty four percent of cases were squamous cell carcinoma, followed by hyperkeratosis in 37% and mild epithelial dysplasia in 11%. Squamous cell carcinoma was more common in men aged over 50 years. Most of the potentially malignant disorders presented clinically as leukoplakia and squamous cell carcinoma were clinically recognized as cancer. Conclusions: In this study, men aged over 50 years are the highest risk group for oral cancer. Early diagnosis is deficient since most of these lesions were diagnosed when squamous cell carcinoma became invasive. Leukoplakia diagnosis is mostly associated with hyperkeratosis and epithelial dysplasia, therefore biopsy of these lesions is mandatory to improve early diagnosis.

Hiperparatiroidismo primario: Evolución postoperatoria a largo plazo / Primary hyperparathyrodism: Postoperative long-term evolution

Presentamos la evolución postoperatoria a largo plazo de 87 pacientes con hiperparatiroidismo primario. Del total, 78 mujeres y 9 varones, relación: 8.7:1. Edad media 55.3 ± 10.2 años. Antes de la cirugía el 44% presentó litiasis renal, el 70% osteopenia u osteoporosis y un 71.2% tuvo hipercalciuria. Se encontró disminución del filtrado glomerular en el 12.6%. Del total, 72 pacientes presentaron un adenoma único, dos un doble adenoma, dos hiperplasia, cuatro histología normal y en siete no se pudo disponer del resultado. El calcio sérico, el calcio iónico, el fósforo y la parathormona intacta se normalizaron en todos los pacientes postcirugía. La densitometría ósea aumentó un 6.9% en columna lumbar y un 3% en cuello de fémur. Los marcadores del remodelado óseo se normalizaron y persistieron normales a los 23 meses del seguimiento, coincidiendo con la parathormona intacta. Lo mismo sucedió con los valores de 25 OH D. Cuando se compararon pacientes con hipercalciuria inicial vs. aquellos con normocalciuria, no se encontraron diferencias en los valores basales y postcirugía en ambos grupos. En 11 pacientes con filtrado glomerular previo < 60 ml/min, encontramos una parathormona intacta más elevada que el resto y menor densidad mineral ósea. El filtrado glomerular no cambió en forma significativa luego de la cirugía. En conclusión, el hiperparatiroidismo primario operado por cirujanos especializados tiene una excelente evolución a largo plazo, con normalización de todos los parámetros del metabolismo fosfocálcico y del remodelado óseo y mejoría significativa en la densidad mineral ósea. Los efectos adversos son escasos y de resolución espontánea.

The long-term postoperative outcome of 87 patients with primary hyperparathyrodism is here presented. Of the total 78 were females and 9 males, ratio: 8.7:1. Mean age 55.3 ± 10.2 years. Before surgery, 44% had kidney stones, 70% had osteopenia or osteoporosis and 71.2% had hypercalciuria. Decrease renal glomerular filtration was found in 12.6%. Of the total, 72 patients had a single adenoma, two double adenoma, two hyperplasia, four had normal histology and seven could not dispose of the result. Serum calcium, ionized calcium, phosphorus and intact parathyroid hormone were normalized in all post surgery patients. Bone mineral density increased by 6.9% in lumbar spine and 3% in femoral neck. Markers of bone remodeling were normalized and persisted normal 23 months of follow-up, coinciding with the normal intact parathyroid hormone. Same thing happened with the values of 25 OH D. When patients whith initial hypercalciuria were compared with those with normocalciuria, no differences were found in the basal values and postsurgery in both groups. In 11 patients with previous renal glomerular filtration < 60 ml / min, we found a higher intact parathyroid hormone and lower bone mineral density than the rest. The glomerular filtration rate did not change significantly after surgery. In conclusion, the surgical primary hyperparathyroidism, operated by specialized surgeons has an excellent long-term outcome, with normalization of all parameters of phosphocalcic metabolism and bone remodeling and significant improvement in bone mineral density. Adverse effects were scarce and had spontaneous resolution.
