Risk factor surveillance is a complementary tool of morbidity and mortality surveillance that improves the likelihood that public health interventions are implemented in a timely fashion. The aim of this study was to identify population predictors of malaria outbreaks in endemic municipalities of Colombia with the goal of developing an early warning system for malaria outbreaks. We conducted a multiple-group, exploratory, ecological study at the municipal level. Each of the 290 municipalities with endemic malaria that we studied was classified according to the presence or absence of outbreaks. The measurement of variables was based on historic registries and logistic regression was performed to analyse the data. Altitude above sea level [odds ratio (OR) 3.65, 95% confidence interval (CI) 1.34-9.98], variability in rainfall (OR 1.85, 95% CI 1.40-2.44) and the proportion of inhabitants over 45 years of age (OR 0.17, 95% CI 0.08-0.38) were factors associated with malaria outbreaks in Colombian municipalities. The results suggest that environmental and demographic factors could have a significant ability to predict malaria outbreaks on the municipal level in Colombia. To advance the development of an early warning system, it will be necessary to adjust and standardise the collection of required data and to evaluate the accuracy of the forecast models.

Degut a la gran demanda tecnològica, actualment hi ha un gran interès en desenvolupar medis magnètics amb entitats ferromagnètiques de dimensions nanomètriques. Aquesta demanda promou la investigació i el desenvolupament de nous materials i processos de fabricació que permetin controlar d’una manera més precisa les propietats magnètiques i estructurals. Entre els mètodes de litografia convencionals (per exemple deposició física a través de màscares, deposició química en fase vapor i electrodeposició), recentment s’ha demostrat que la irradiació amb ions a través de màscares pre‐litografiades, sembla ser un bon mètode per a la fabricació d’estructures ferromagnètiques de l’ordre dels nanòmetres. Aquesta tècnica pot ser aplicada per aprofitar la transició paramagnètica‐ferromagnètica que presenten alguns materials al ser desordenats estructuralment (per exemple FeAl, FePt3, Ni3Sn2). En el treball que es presenta a continuació s’utilitza l’aliatge Fe60Al40 per a fabricar estructures ferromagnètiques embegudes en una matriu paramagnètica mitjançant irradiació amb ions d’argó a través d’una membrana de polimetil metacrilat (PMMA) prèviament litografiada amb feixos d’electrons (EBL). La fabricació d’aquest sistema té com a objectiu d’estudiar l’evolució de la morfologia i el gruix de PMMA (a partir de SEM i AFM) i del comportament magnètic de les estructures fabricades (MFM i MOKE), quan és irradiat consecutivament a diferents energies. Per a completar l’estudi s’han utilitzat simulacions per a determinar les condicions d’irradiació (TRIM), com per a una millor comprensió dels resultats (simulacions micromagnètiques). El contingut de la memòria inclou una breu introducció històrica i conceptual sobre el magnetisme. A continuació s’exposen les tècniques necessàries per a la fabricació, preparació i caracterització de la mostra. Finalment es presenta una discussió dels resultats obtinguts i les conclusions.

AIM To investigate the incidence of neoplasms in inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) patients and the potential causative role of thiopurines. METHODS We performed an observational descriptive study comparing the incidence of malignancies in IBD patients treated with thiopurines and patients not treated with these drugs. We included 812 patients which were divided in two groups depending on whether they have received thiopurines or not. We have studied basal characteristics of both groups (age when the disease was diagnosed, sex, type of IBD, etc.) and treatments received (Azathioprine, mercaptopurine, infliximab, adalimumab or other immunomodulators), as well as neoplasms incidence. Univariate analysis was performed with the student t test, χ(2) test or Wilcoxon exact test as appropriate. A logistic regression analysis was performed as multivariate analysis. Statistical significance was establish at P values of less than 0.05, and 95%CI were used for the odds ratios. RESULTS Among 812 patients included, 429 (52.83%) have received thiopurines: 79.5% azathioprine, 14% mercaptopurine and 6.5% both drugs. 44.76% of patients treated with thiopurines and 46, 48% of patients who did not receive this treatment were women (P > 0.05). The proportion of ulcerative colitis patients treated with thiopurines was 30.3% compare to 66. 67% of patients not treated (P < 0.001). Mean azathioprine dose was 123.79 ± 36.5 mg/d (range: 50-250 mg/d), mean usage time was 72.16 ± 55.7 mo (range: 1-300 mo) and the accumulated dose along this time was 274.32 ± 233.5 g (1.5-1350 g). With respect to mercaptopurine, mean dose was 74.7 ± 23.9 mg/d (range: 25-150 mg/d), mean usage time of 23.37 ± 27.6 mo (range: 1-118 mo), and the accumulated dose along this time was 52.2 ± 63.5 g (range: 1.5-243 g). Thiopurine S-methyltransferase activity was tested in 66% of patients treated with thiopurines, among which 98.2% had an intermediate or high activity. Among the patients treated with thiopurines, 27.27% (112 patients) and 11.66% (50 patients) received treatment with Infliximab and Adalimumab respectively, but only 1.83% (7 patients) and 0.78% (3 patients) received these drugs in the group of patients who did not received thiopurines (P < 0.001 and P < 0.001 respectively). Finally, 6.8% (29 patients) among those treated with thiopurines have received other immunesupresants (Methotrexate, Tacrolimus, Cyclosporin), compare to 1% (4 patients) of patients not treated with thiopurines (P < 0.001). Among patients treated with thiopurines, 3.97% developed a malignancy, and among those not treated neoplasms presented in 8.1% (P = 0.013). The most frequent neoplasms were colorectal ones (12 cases in patients not treated with thiopurines but none in treated, P < 0.001) followed by non-melanoma skin cancer (8 patients in treated with thiopurines and 6 in not treated, P > 0.05). CONCLUSION In our experience, thiopurine therapy did not increase malignancies development in IBD patients, and was an efective and safe treatment for these diseases.
