Abstract

The main goal of this research was to determine the effectiveness of the vestibular rehabilitation and Brandt Daroff exercises in patients with Benign Paroxysmal Positional Vertigo at Hospital Florencia de Mora. A quasi-experimental correlational observational investigation was carried out with a population of 46 patients, finding that the effectiveness of Brandt Daroff exercises was superior in relation to vestibular rehabilitation exercises, while in relation to sex it was established that 36.9% of the cases belong to the male sex, while 63.0% belong to the female sex.

Abstract

A retrospective study of cases and controls was performed on newborns of both sexes, with and without diagnosis of neonatal hypoglycemia, treated at Hospital Victor Lazarte Echegaray from 2016 to 2017. Through the clinical histories, 43 cases and 43 controls were obtained, and bivariate and multivariate analysis was used to determine association and risk factors. Statistical significance was found with neonatal sex, prematurity and very low birth weight (p<0.05). Normal weight was shown to be a protective factor for neonatal hypoglycemia (p:0). In multivariate analysis, only the male sex remains statistically significant as a risk factor for neonatal hypoglycemia.

Abstract

The herniary pathology is currently a point of attention in academic and hospital environments, due to its impact on frequency as well as the repercussions that patients present. The objective of this study was to determine the clinical-epidemiological profiles of incisional hernia, post laparotomy, of patients of the Regional Teaching Hospital of Trujillo, 2006-2016, with 189 patients, and the selection of the sample had a census character, carrying out a retrospective descriptive investigation. For data collection, a card was used, which obtained information from patient histories and the hospital database, processing the information through statistical tables. The research showed that the prevalence of incisional hernia was 0.012%, the lethality rate was 0%, the highest frequency of this disease was found in patients older than 61 (38.10%), 70.90% of patients were female, the majority of patients came from coast, 123 (65.08%). Among the risk factors, we found obesity to be the most frequent in 93.49% of patients, the clinical characteristics of incisional hernia were pain, tumor and protrusion in post-laparotomy scar in 100% of cases, from which 98.94% were treated with hernioplasty with mesh implant.

Abstract
The aim of this research was to evaluate the effect of the fluid extract of Passiflora ligularis in the levels of test anxiety of university students. An experimental, pre-test and post-test study was carried out, with a sample of 36 students, divided into a control group and an experimental group. Test anxiety levels were assessed using the CAEX questionnaire. The results evidence that test anxiety levels decreased after phytotherapy treatment, with statistically significant results (p <0.05), and with a Cohen D score of 0.28 and a 4.03% change rate.

Abstract

Aromatherapy uses essential oils as the main therapeutic agents. In the present work a brief review was made on the aromatherapy used in mental health. It describes evidence for and against the use of aromatherapy in stress, anxiety, depression, sleep disorders, cognitive disorders and other disorders; as well as data related to its safety, adverse effects, contraindications and mechanisms of action. In conclusion, aromatherapy can be considered as an option that can be used as a complement to treatments aimed to restore mental health and associated disorders.

Abstract
Introduction: In the approach of multidrug-resistant tuberculosis, the therapeutic abandonment constitutes a serious problem of public health, affecting the quality of life of patients, families and community. Addressing it poses a burden on health systems, because it causes free sources of transmission in the community, and increases in prevalence and mortality. Hence the need to investigate those factors associated with this situation. Objective: To identify risk factors associated with treatment default in patients with multidrug-resistant tuberculosis in the Callao-Peru region. Materials and methods: Analytical case-control study (cases = 80 and controls = 180) that started treatment from January 01, 2010 to December 31, 2012. The factors were identified by logistic regression, calculating the odds ratios (OR) and 95% confidence intervals. Results: Finding risk factors in the multivariate analysis: Not having knowledge of the disease, OR aj = 23.10 [95% CI, 3.6-36.79; (p .002)], Do not believe in healing, OR aj = 117.34 [95% CI 13.57-124.6; (p .000)]; Not having social support, OR aj = 19.16 [95% CI 1.32-27.77; (p .030)]; Do not consider adequate working hours, OR aj = 78.13 [IC95% 4.84-125.97; (p .002)]; Do not receive laboratory reports, OR aj = 46.13 [95% CI 2.85-74.77; (p .007)] Conclusions: Health services should direct efforts for the early identification of conditions that could become risk factors, which would help preventively implement effective, rapid and high-impact interventions. © 2019 Instituto Nacional de Salud.
