Vigilancia centinela para enfermedad diarreica aguda por enterovirus en cinco unidades centinelas. Bogotá, D.C. enero – febrero 2008.

El Rotavirus es el germen causal de enfermedad diarreica aguda en el 20 al 70% de los niños hospitalizados por deshidratación y es el causante del 20% de las muertes por diarrea en el mundo en menores de cinco años. En Colombia se ha estimado la mortalidad por diarrea anual de 5270 niños, de las cuales 1318 fueron causadas por Rotavirus. (P arashar 2003)

Determinantes sociales de la enfermedad diarreica aguda en niños menores de 5 años en países en desarrollo

Antecedentes: Cada año hay 2,5 billones de casos de diarrea en menores de 5 años y 1,3 millones de estos niños mueren; lo que constituye a la EDA como segunda causa de muerte en este grupo de edad Metodología: Análisis transversal transnacional multinivel de la Encuesta DHS y el Banco Mundial en 348.706 niños de 40 países Resultados: Prevalencia de EDA 14%. Inequidad (OR=1.335; IC 95% 1.117-1.663) y bajos ingresos en las naciones (OR=1.488; IC 95% 1.024-2.163) presentaron asociación con EDA. Vivir en un país pobre aumenta la asociación entre el índice de riqueza del hogar y EDA (OR=1.0961; IC 95% 1.003-1.207) y la asociación entre no educación de la madre y EDA (OR=1.310; IC 95% 1.035-1.601). Otros factores asociados con EDA fueron sexo femenino, (OR=0.922; IC 95% 1.900-0.944), edad de niño (OR=0.978; IC 95% 0.978-0.979), vacunación (OR=0.821; IC 95% 0.799-0.843), peso normal al nacer (OR=0.879; IC 95% 0.834-0.926), edad de la madre (OR=0.987; IC 95% 0.985-0.989), no educación de la madre (OR=1.416; IC 95% 1.283-1.564), madre trabajadora (OR=1.136; IC 95% 1.106-1.167), embarazo deseado (OR=0.774; IC 95% 0.753-0.795), familia nuclear (OR=0.949; IC 95% 0.923-0.975) e índice de riqueza del hogar (OR=0.948; IC 95% 0.921-0.977) Conclusiones: La desigualdad y los bajos ingresos de los países desarrollados se asocian con EDA, independientemente de las características del niño, la mamá o el hogar. El gasto en salud no presenta asociaciones con EDA. Esto se debe considerar en las campañas de salud pública orientadas al manejo de la EDA.

Timber Abutment Piling and Back Wall Rehabilitation and Repair, TR-616, 2012

Based on previous National Bridge Inventory data, the state of Iowa has nearly 20,000 bridges on low-volume roads (LVRs). Thus, these bridges are the responsibility of the county engineers. Of the bridges on the county roads, 24 percent are structurally deficient and 5 percent are functionally obsolete. A large number of the older bridges on the LVRs are built on timber piling with timber back walls. In many cases, as timber abutments and piers age, the piling and back wall planks deteriorate at a rate faster than the bridge superstructure. As a result, a large percentage of the structurally deficient bridges on LVRs are classified as such because of the condition of the timber substructure elements. As funds for replacing bridges decline and construction costs increase, effective rehabilitation and strengthening techniques for extending the life of the timber substructures in bridges with structurally sound superstructures has become even more important. Several counties have implemented various techniques to strengthen/repair damaged piling, however, there is minimal data documenting the effectiveness of these techniques. There are numerous instances where cracked and failed pilings have been repaired. However, there are no experimental data on the effectiveness of the repairs or on the percentage of load transferred from the superstructure to the sound pile below. To address the research needs, a review and evaluation of current maintenance and rehabilitation methods was completed. Additionally, a nationwide survey was conducted to learn the methods used beyond Iowa. Field investigation and live-load testing of bridges with certain Iowa methods was completed. Lastly, laboratory testing of new strengthening and rehabilitation methods was performed.

Etiologia, perfil de sensibilidade aos antimicrobianos e aspectos epidemiológicos na otite canina: estudo retrospectivo de 616 casos

A retrospective study of etiology, antimicrobial susceptibility profile and multiple drug resistance, and major epidemiological aspects were investigated in 616 cases of canine otitis. Staphylococcus beta hemolitic (26.27%), Malassezia pachydermatis (12.35%), and Pseudomonas aeruginosa (8.8%) were the most common microorganisms identified. The isolates were susceptible mainly to norfloxacin (89.62%), gentamicin (83.25%), and ofloxacin (80.16%). High occurrence of resistance of isolates was observed to neomicin (30.84%) and cephalexin (27.63%). Multiple drug resistance to three or more and five or more of antimicrobials tested was observed in 34.9% and 15.5% of isolates, respectively. The cases of canine otitis occurred predominantly in first years of age, in mixed breeds animals, at autumn season. The presence of itch, bad smell, and secretion in ear conduct were the major signs observed at clinical examination.
