Embarazo en la adolescencia en una región de México: un problema de Salud Pública
Get PDFEl embarazo en la adolescencia se considera un problema de salud pública por la Organización Mundial de la Salud (OMS) debido a las repercusiones biopsicosociales que tiene en la salud de la madre y del hijo(a). Las complicaciones del embarazo y el parto son la principal causa de muerte de las adolescentes en la mayoría de los países. La falta de orientación y educación en salud es un factor determinante en el alto número de embarazos prematuros. En este ensayo se revisa y analiza este problema de salud pública desde los aspectos demográficos y reproductivos, los programas institucionalesque se han implementado para su prevención, se enuncian también las características, factores de riesgo, causas y consecuencias; de igual forma se describen las dimensiones del embarazo en la adolescencia: cultural, psicológica, social y educacional, en esta última además se presenta una revisión de distintas intervenciones educativas que se han empleado con adolescentes enfocadas a incrementar conocimientos en la prevención del embarazo a esta edad y sus ámbitos de aplicación.Adolescent pregnancy is considered a public health issue by the World Health Organization (WHO) because of the biopsychosocial impact that it has on the health of the mother and the child. Complications during pregnancy and childbirth are the leadingcause of death for adolescents in most countries. The lack of health guidance and education is a determining factor for the high number of preterm pregnancies. This paper reviews and analyzes this public health issue considering demographic and reproductive aspects, the institutional programs that have been implemented for its prevention, and its characteristics, risk factors, causes and consequences. Furthermore, it presents a description of the dimensions of adolescent pregnancy, in other words, cultural, psychological, social and educational aspects. Regarding education, different interventions focused on increasing knowledge in the prevention of pregnancy at this age and field of application, and that have been applied to adolescents, are reviewed
Academic voices and claims: Reviewing practices in research writing
Get PDFThis paper investigates contrastively how politeness strategies that involve reporting verbs are deployed in the Literature Review (LR) chapters of PhD theses written in English and in Spanish. It analyses a comparable corpus of 20 theses -10 in English and 10 in Spanish- in computer science. It focuses on uses of reporting structures realised through integral and non-integral citations of other texts (Hyland 1999). The research design is based on the model proposed by Thompson and Ye (1991), who distinguished three categories of reporting verbs according to the process they perform: textual, mental and research verbs, and analysed the evaluative potential of verbal processes whose responsibility is ascribed either to the reviewed author or to the reporting writer. We also took as a reference the politeness model offered by Brown & Levinson (1987) to study the presence of specific face-redressive politeness means in the double-voiced dialogue which is established in the corpus of LRs. Data show that English writers show personal commitment and tentativeness, while Spanish writers tend to mask individual voices and avoid personal confrontation.Soler Monreal, C.; Gil Salom, ML.

Género y actividad física en mujeres mexicanas con experiencia migratoria a Estados Unidos de América
Get PDFObjetivo Analizar la influencia de la categoría de género en la práctica de actividad física en mujeres de zonas rurales con experiencia migratoria a Estados Unidos de América.Métodos Diseño cualitativo con métodos de la teoría fundamentada; la información fue obtenida a través de entrevistas en profundidad a 19 mujeres que habitan en localidades rurales de la zona central de MéxicoResultados A través del análisis emergió como categoría central la crítica social a la actividad física. Las mujeres con pareja no realizan actividad física porque de acuerdo con las normas sociales es mal visto que la efectúen, y son los hombres quienes toman la decisión de permitirla. El género, la identidad femenina y la crítica social son elementos que contribuyen a la comprensión de la inactividad física en estas mujeres.Conclusión Es necesario que los programas sanitarios que promueven la actividad física dirigidos a mujeres adultas en zonas rurales, se diseñen tomando como base la perspectiva de género y el contexto de la población
"Without money you're nothing": poverty and health in Mexico from women's perspective "Sin dinero no eres nada": pobreza y salud en México desde la perspectiva de las mujeres "Sem dinheiro você nâo é nada": pobreza e saúde no México a partir da perspectiva das mulheres
No full textThe objective of this qualitative study was to get to know poor Mexican women's experience of poverty in relation to health care. Forty-nine interviews were carried out with poor adult women in Mexico (between 35 and 65 years old). Three central elements were detected in relation to the women's experience of poverty and health care: their socio-economic dependence on their family; the notion of social belonging in their experience with health care rights, reflected in the idea and acceptance that, due to their poverty, they can only be attended at philanthropic institutions; and the existence of survival mechanisms when facing an illness. In recovering the experience of poor women in relation to their health care, we identified that there is a clear idea that, if women had had economic resources, their health problem would have been solved differently. They are also convinced that, due to being poor, they have to content themselves with bad-quality medical care. This conformity finally makes them resign to the fact of either loosing a part of their own body, or even just waiting for death.El objetivo del presente trabajo fue conocer la vivencia de la pobreza en relación al cuidado y atención de la salud en el caso de mujeres pobres mexicanas. Se desarrolló una investigación cualitativa que se llevó a cabo en México. Se realizaron y analizaron cuarenta entrevistas que se aplicaron a mujeres entre 35 y 65 años de edad. Se detectaron tres elementos centrales con relación a la vivencia de la pobreza y el cuidado y atención de la salud: la dependencia socioeconómica hacia su familia; la noción de una pertenencia social en la vivencia de los derechos de atención a la salud que se refleja en la consideración y aceptación de que a ellas debido a su condición de pobreza sólo les corresponde ser atendidas en las instituciones de beneficencia pública; y la existencia de mecanismos de supervivencia frente a un evento de enfermedad. Al recuperar la experiencia de las mujeres pobres en su cuidado de salud se identificó lo siguiente: existe una clara idea de que si se hubiera contado con recursos económicos suficientes su problema de salud se hubiera resuelto de otra manera; también se tiene la convicción de que por ser pobres deben conformarse con una mala atención médica y, esta conformidad provoca que, finalmente, se resignen al hecho de, o bien perder una parte de su cuerpo, o, inclusive, a esperar la muerte.O objetivo do presente trabalho foi conhecer a vivência da pobreza em relação à assistência à saúde no caso de mulheres pobres mexicanas. Desenvolveu-se uma pesquisa qualitativa no México, realizando 40 entrevistas com mulheres entre 35 e 65 anos de idade. Detectaram-se três elementos centrais a respeito da vivência da pobreza e da assistência à saúde: a dependência socioeconômica para com a família; a noção de uma pertença social na vivência dos direitos de atenção à saúde, que se reflete na consideração e aceitação de que, devido a sua condição, somente podem ser atendidas em instituições filantrópicas; e a existência de mecanismos de sobrevivência diante de um evento de doença. Ao recuperar a experiência das mulheres pobres com relação à assistência à saúde, identificou-se que existe uma idéia clara de que, se tivessem contado com recursos econômicos suficientes, seus problemas de saúde teriam sido resolvidos de outra maneira. Também têm a convicção de que, por serem pobres, devem se conformar com uma atenção médica de má qualidade, e esta conformidade finalmente provoca sua resignação com o fato de perderem uma parte dos seus corpos, ou ainda mais esperarem a chegada da morte
Community resilience and Chagas disease in a rural region of Mexico
Get PDFABSTRACT OBJECTIVE To explore the pillars of community resilience in a region where Chagas disease is endemic, with the aim of promoting participatory processes to deal with this condition from the resilience of the population. METHODS Qualitative study using ethnographic record and six interviews of focus groups with young people, women and men. The research was carried out in a rural area of the state of Morelos, Mexico, between 2006 and 2007. We carried out educational sessions with the population in general, so that residents could identify the relationship between the vector Triatoma pallidipennis, the parasite (Trypanosoma cruzi), symptoms, and preventive actions for Chagas disease. The ethnographic record and groups were analyzed based on Taylor and Bogdan’s modification, and the focus was to understand the socio-cultural meanings that guide the speeches and activities of residents in relation to the pillars of community resilience. RESULTS The population felt proud of belonging to that location and three pillars of community resilience were clearly identified: collective self-esteem, cultural identity, and social honesty. Having these pillars as bases, we promoted the participation of the population concerning Chagas disease, and a Community Action Group was formed with young people, adult men and women, and social leaders. This Group initiated actions of epidemiological and entomological surveillance in the community to deal with this problem. CONCLUSIONS It is necessary to create more experiences that deepen the understanding of the pillars of community resilience, and how they contribute to enhance participation in health to deal with Chagas disease
