    Background. Hand sanitizers have been recognized as an effective means of reducing bacterial load and transmission. It is needful to periodically assess the bacteriological status of individual products due to batch variation. Aim. This study was designed to assess the bacteriological quality and efficacy of two hand sanitizers sold within the Ilishan-Remo community of Ogun State, Nigeria, amidst the COVID-19 pandemic. Methodology. Samples of two brands of hand sanitizers were procured and assessed using standard bacteriological methods, including Sterility test, Surface viable count, Gram-stain, Motility test, Biochemical tests, Quantitative suspension test, and Agar diffusion test. Data were analyzed with paired-samples T-Test using Statistical Package for the Social Sciences -Version 20.0 (SPSS-20.0) to assess for significant variation between the effectiveness of the two hand sanitizers. P-values <0.05 was considered significant. Results. The study\u27s outcome showed the satisfactory bacteriological quality of both hand sanitizers tested. However, the mean bacterial load was not significantly reduced after sterilization using both hand sanitizers. The hand sanitizers\u27 bactericidal activity was also considered unsatisfactory since the Log reduction was less than 5. Brand B hand sanitizer proved to be more potent than Brand A at the contact time. Each of the products displayed varying inhibitory activities against the bacterial isolates. Conclusion. The study highlighted the need to periodically assess the bacteriological quality and efficacy of hand sanitizers to guarantee the general safety of the end users and ensure proper infection control

    Objective. To determine if there is a correlation between basal glucose levels and cholesterol and triglyceride levels in asymptomatic patients or with non-specific complaints who attend a consultation for routine evaluations. Materials and methods. Correlational analytical cross-sectional study. The variables were cholesterol, triglyceride and glucose levels. Information was collected from 637 patients over 18 years of age in a polyclinic in the district of Villa el Salvador from January to July of the year 2021, in the statistical analysis the SPSS 21 program was used, for the correlation study the Spearman coefficient was used with a significance level of 0.01. Results. Only 50.60% and 50.90% of patients had normal cholesterol and triglyceride levels, respectively. 15.90% of patients have pre-diabetes and 15.10% have diabetes mellitus. Likewise, a low and positive association was found between glucose and cholesterol (0.145) and between glucose and triglycerides (0.255), as well as a moderate and positive correlation between cholesterol and triglycerides (0.405). Conclusion. There is a low degree of association between the variables studied, so it is not possible to determine the values ​​of cholesterol and triglycerides in base to glucose and vice versa, this can be attributed to glucose and cholesterol levels being regulated by distant physiological and genetic factors.Objetivo. Determinar si existe correlación entre los niveles de glucosa basal con los niveles de colesterol y triglicéridos en pacientes asintomáticos o con molestias inespecíficas que acuden a consulta para evaluaciones de rutina. Materiales y métodos. Estudio transversal analítico correlacional. Las variables fueron los niveles de colesterol, triglicéridos y glucosa. Se recabo información de 637 pacientes mayores de 18 años en un policlínico del distrito de Villa el Salvador desde enero hasta julio del año 2021, en el análisis estadístico se utilizó el programa SPSS 21, para el estudio de correlación se usó el coeficiente de Spearman con un nivel de significancia de 0,01. Resultados. Solo el 50,60% y 50,90% de pacientes tuvieron niveles normales de colesterol y triglicéridos, respectivamente. El 15,90% de pacientes presenta pre-diabetes y el 15,10% tiene diabetes mellitus. Asimismo, se encontró una asociación baja y positiva entre glucosa y colesterol (0,145) y entre glucosa y triglicéridos (0,255) así como una correlación moderada y positiva entre colesterol y triglicéridos (0,405). Conclusión. Existe un bajo grado de asociación entre las variables estudiadas por lo que no es posible determinar los valores de colesterol y triglicéridos en base a glucosa y viceversa, esto se puede atribuir a que los niveles de glucosa y colesterol están regulados por factores fisiológicos y genéticas distantes

    Background. It is limited literature on the possible factors related to mortality by COVID-19 in minors. Children and young people are generally considered vulnerable, especially in low-income countries, whereby consistent evidence must arise to protect them and avoid mortality. Methods. A multiple linear regression model was fit to evaluate the relationship between deaths per 100,000 inhabitants and pandemic containment policies, the duration of totally closed schools, and GDP in 29 countries under study. Results. Linear regression analysis shows that the association between deaths per 100k and the number of weeks of closed schools had a coef B=0.355, [CI 0.010; 0.699], and it is statistically significant (P-value =0.044). Similarly, the association between deaths per 100K and GDP was -0.001, [CI -0.003; 0.001], and is not statistically associated (P-value 0.633). Conclusions. This study suggests that open schools could be a protective space for COVID-19 mortality in the child and youth population and that each country should implement studies on the subject at the local level

    Due to digital revolution, mass media has a great presence in people\u27s lives. Hence, there is a prevailing media culture of incessant and changing information. This generates the need to develop a media literacy to be taught as part of a media competence in Peruvian classrooms. This would be presented with greater complexity and precision within the Peruvian National Curriculum of Basic Education in order to accomplish the ideal of the knowledge society. Therefore, the purpose of this paper was to carry out a theoretical review and an analysis of media literacy and its realization as a media competence in the curriculum. Because of this, it is concluded that some aspects of media competence are present in different curricular areas (Art and Culture, Communication, Social Sciences and Personal Development Citizenship and Civics) in addition to the transversal competence 28. However, these aspects are not exclusively or systematically presented as proposed by Ferrés through six dimensions. For this reason, it is proposed to include this competence within the area of communication, considering the characteristics and needs of the Peruvian educational system for the elaboration of its respective capacities and performances.Debido a la revolución digital, los medios de comunicación tienen una gran presencia en la vida de las personas. De ahí que se vive una imperante cultura mediática en donde la información es incesante y cambiante. Esto genera la necesidad de desarrollar una literacidad mediática que se enseñe como parte de una competencia mediática en las aulas peruanas. Esta se presentaría con mayor complejidad y precisión dentro del Currículo Nacional de Educación Básica del Perú en vista de cumplir con el ideal de la sociedad del conocimiento. Por ello, el presente trabajo tuvo como propósito realizar una revisión teórica y un análisis de la literacidad mediática y su concreción como competencia mediática en el currículo. A partir de ello, se concluye que algunos aspectos de la competencia mediática están presentes en diversas áreas curriculares (Arte y cultura, Comunicación, Ciencias sociales y Desarrollo Personal Ciudadanía y Cívica) además de la competencia transversal 28. Sin embargo, estos aspectos no se plantean exclusiva ni sistemáticamente como lo propone Ferrés a través de seis dimensiones. Es por ello que se propone que se incluya dicha competencia dentro del área de comunicación considerando las características y necesidades del sistema educativo peruano para la elaboración de sus respectivas capacidades y desempeños

    Factores de riesgo en estudiantes de la EBR, durante el confinamiento por COVID19: revisión de medidas de prevención familiar en Perú

    Get PDF
    This thesis was proposed with the objective of collecting the main resources of an educational, socio-educational and psychological nature for families in confinement due to COVID-19, at two levels: - Identify the existing resources in the Peruvian state concerning educational support, socio-educational and psychological against the isolation applied by coronavirus. Likewise, to identify the main risks in students of the EBR that emerged during confinement and include the reference strategies, at an international level, to improve and/or maintain family dynamics, which allow preventing the risks of confinement in Peru, since the On March 15, 2020, the Peruvian government declared a state of health emergency prompted by the rapid evolution of SARS-Cov-2. as a family care measure to face the COVID-19 pandemic. The greatest impact of the restrictions applied due to the lack of contact with the main  spheres of socialization has been in childhood and adolescence. The increase in the rates of family violence and the abusive consumption of the game show the need to reinforce family prevention measures. Consequently, a large part of Peruvian prevention measures is of a tertiary nature. It should be noted that there is still a need to provide resources for primary risk prevention, aimed at improving family communication and parental skills in order to reduce the rates of family violence and the inappropriate use of ICT by children and adolescents.La presente tesis, se planteó con el objetivo de acopiar los principales recursos de carácter educativo, socio-educativo y psicológico para familias en confinamiento por COVID-19, en dos niveles: - Identificar los recursos existentes en el estado peruano  concernientes a apoyo educativo, socio-educativo y psicológico frente al aislamiento aplicadas por coronavirus. Asimismo, identificar los principales riesgos en estudiantes de la EBR emergidos durante el confinamiento e incluir las estrategias de referencia, de ámbito internacional, para mejorar y/o mantener las dinámicas familiares, que permitan prevenir los riesgos del confinamiento en el Perú, ya que el 15 de marzo del 2020, el gobierno peruano, declaró el estado en emergencia sanitaria incitada por la rápida evolución del SARS-Cov-2. como medida de atención familiar para afrontar la pandemia del COVID-19. El mayor impacto de las  restricciones aplicadas por la falta de contacto con los principales ámbitos de socialización se ha dado sobre la infancia y la adolescencia. El incremento en las tasas de violencia familiar y del consumo abusivo del juego evidencian la necesidad de reforzar las medidas de prevención familiar. En consecuencia, gran parte de las medidas de prevención peruana son de carácter terciario. Cabe resaltar que aún persiste la necesidad de suministrar recursos de prevención primaria de riesgos, orientados a mejorar la comunicación familiar y las competencias parentales con tal de reducir las tasas de violencia familiar y el uso inadecuado de las TIC por parte de niños/as y adolescentes
