Health advice is a care relationship strategy based on interactive and simple dialect information that generates changes in individual lifestyles. As an objective, it was proposed to determine the effectiveness of the Health Council as a model of communication for good living and prevention of endemic diseases. The study was descriptive-cross-sectional during the period April-July, 2022. The sample consisted of 285 heads of family from the community of Cajamarca, Peru. As a data collection instrument, a questionnaire of 35 items was applied in two stages, before and after the health council. The data was processed with Epidat 3.0 and expressed in tables and figures. As a result, 70.53% were female, whose predominant age was >56 years with 40.35%, basic education (50.88%) who depended on a minimum wage (69.47%), on the other hand, at determine the knowledge prior to the health advice it was possible to know that only 24.56%, post-test to the health advice was 97.89%, regarding the identification of potential breeding sites before the health advice 52.98% did not identify any, after the sanitary advice, 94.74% identified the exposed water storage containers, in reference to prevention practices, before the sanitary advice, only 30.18% acted on placing screens on the windows, after the sanitary advice, it was 70.18%. In conclusion, the health council is the cornerstone of public health in the fight against diseases, not only vector diseases but all those where the empowerment of communities helps to prevent them.

In this research, soil contamination in household environment with soil-borne parasites species in dwellings of a periurban neighborhood and a shantytown in northeast of Argentina was described and associated with sanitary variables. Each house evaluated was considered as a unit of analysis. The samples were analyzed under three different techniques: centrifugal sedimentation; Willis Molloy flotation and flotation with Sheather's solution. Out of the 30 houses analyzed, 12 (40.0%) presented at least one parasitic forms in soil samples. We recorded three taxa, the most prevalent were nematodes larvae (related to hookworms), reported in the 30% of dwellings followed by Toxocara canis and Trichuris vulpis eggs and Cytoisospora canis oocyst in the 3,3% of houses. No statistical association was observed between soil contamination and the sanitary variables (p > 0.05). These preliminary results demonstrate that domestic environment soil could represent a high potential for infection and re-infection for humans, principally young children and their pets.

The objective of this study was to determine the impact of monitoring the HIV viral load in the Laboratory of the Sergio E. Bernales National Hospital during the period 2019 to 2021. A descriptive, quantitative, observational, retrospective, comparative, and analytical study was carried out. We worked with 490 patients who had follow-up viral load. The findings revealed a predominance of males with 64% of HIV cases and 36% of females. During the monitoring period, 14.9% of the patients were admitted as new HIV cases, while 8% started antiretroviral treatment (ART). Regarding the viral load results, 14.9% of the patients had a viral load greater than 1000 copies/ml, 5 patients had between 200 and 1000 cp/ml. 70 patients had a viral load greater than 40 to ≤ 1000 cp/mL, 173 patients had a viral load less than 40 cp/mL, and 174 patients had an undetectable viral load. At the end of the monitoring study, a statistical significance of 0.00 and a Pearson correlation coefficient of 0.450 were found, indicating a weak to moderate correlation between the final viral load and the monitoring result. These findings highlight the crucial importance of timely monitoring of viral load in patients with HIV. It was evidenced that 38.3% of the patients who had adequate viral load follow-up achieved viral suppression, 43.5% maintained viral suppression, 14.9% experienced virological failure, and 1% presented resistant viremia.

Neurocysticercosis is a parasitic disease caused by the ingestion of Taenia solium eggs that affects the central nervous system and brain, endemic in Peru. As an objective, it was proposed to know electroencephalographic alterations and cognitive complaint in older adults with neurocystecercosis in the city of Arequipa, Peru 2022. The study was descriptive-cross-sectional, carried out in the second semester, 2022. The sample consisted of 21 older adults from a Arequipa Hospital, with ages between 65-85 years, positive Western Blot results, axial tomography and magnetic resonance imaging. As a data collection instrument, epidemiological records, electroencephalogram results and a survey composed of 30 items were used. The data was stored in Microsoft Excel and processed with the Epidat 3.0 statistic to find out frequencies, percentages (%), confidence intervals (95% CI) and Chi square with p:< 0.05. As a result, a positive electroencephalographic alteration was found in 19.05% (n=4), of which 14.29% were male whose most affected age was 76-80 years with 9.52%, the EEG focus according to the number of lesions in the CT scan was 4.29% with multiple lesions and 4.76% with lesions from two to three without significant statistical association (X2: 3.0754; p: 0.2149), regarding electroencephalographic alterations, 9.52% had an EEG pattern of voltage asymmetry with POI polypoint paroxysms, 9.52% presented alterations in language elements 80.95%, 4.76% in spatial orientation and 4.76% delayed recall. In conclusion, more research is needed to better understand the relationship between cerebral cysticercosis and electroencephalographic abnormalities.

Peru is a megadiverse country that presents a great variety of natural and cultural manifestations in Section 2 of the South Interoceanic highway, where exposure to disease-transmitting vectors could be a public health problem. As an objective, it was proposed to determine the risk due to vector entomofauna in ecotourism areas in Peru, 2019. The study was descriptive-experimental, cross-sectional. As an instrument, a categorization system of tourist places, a tourist survey applied to 223 visitors and an entomological survey in seven (7) places along the route were applied. All the data was stored in a Microsoft Excel database and processed with Epidat 3.0, in order to know indices, percentages and frequencies. As a result, the weighting (Total Diversity x PCN) was 6.00 for the CAT. 1, 5.28 CAT. 3, 3.50 CAT. 5, 3.00 CAT. 4 and 1.20 CAT. 2, in the tourist survey it was possible to know that 86.55% of the visitors traveled section 2 of the southern interoceanic highway due to the diversity of flora and fauna and 63.23% due to the diversity of vegetation and landscapes, on the other hand, 348 vectors were collected, 21.84% were Aedes Aegypti, 18.10% P. humanus var. capitis, 16.67% Aedes albopictus, 15.23 Culex sp., 10.92% Anopheles sp., 10.34% Lutzomyia spp., 4.89% Xenopsylla cheopis. and 2.01% Pastrongylus sp. Based on the findings, it is necessary to activate preventive strategies in the transmission of vector diseases, as long as Peru is a beautiful and exciting tourist destination, there will be potential health risks.

Microbes are small organisms including bacteria, viruses, fungi, and other single-celled organisms that play important roles in ecosystems and human health. Over billions of years, microbes have evolved and filled virtually every ecological niche on the planet. They can be beneficial or detrimental, and their interaction with humans has led to pandemics and serious diseases from the Antonine Plague to the COVID-19 pandemic, the interactions between microorganisms and humans, as well as the mechanisms of transmission, have played a crucial role in the spread of diseases, understanding their epidemiology and transmission is essential for their control. The epidemiological chain describes the transmission process of an infectious disease and involves elements such as the infectious agent, the susceptible host, the reservoir, the exit door, the door of entry, and the vulnerability of the host. The study of epidemiology and microbiology makes it possible to identify the risk factors associated with the transmission of microorganisms, develop infection control strategies, as well as design and evaluate interventions to prevent the spread of diseases and promote public health. Understanding the biological path of the microbe in the human species is essential for the diagnosis, treatment and prevention of infectious diseases, knowing in depth the infectivity, pathogenicity, virulence, lethality, antigenic power and mutation capacity of infectious agents. This review emphasizes the microbe and its biological pathway through the human species.

In a natural, non-anthropogenic way, hosts or vectors influence the dynamics of zoonotic cycles in several ways; On the one hand, they determine the geographical and temporal distribution of infectious agents, according to their habitats, their movements and their biological cycles; on the other hand, they determine the intensity and frequency of exposure and contact with humans, according to their habits, their populations and their interactions; and also determine the probability and severity of infection and disease in humans, according to their genetic, immunological and pathogenic characteristics. However, on the other hand, anthropogenic traits refer to human characteristics or activities that influence the dynamics of zoonotic cycles, alter the balance of the principle of opportunity and encounter, susceptibility, exposure, transmission, and adaptability. of etiological agents, as well as the emergence and re-emergence of zoonoses and the response of health systems. Based on the available scientific evidence, the main anthropogenic traits that influence zoonotic cycles in Peru are described and analyzed.

Finding alternatives for the control of Aedes aegypti transmitter of various arboviral diseases is essential in public health. As an objective, it was proposed to determine the effectiveness of repellency and protection time of soaps based on natural essences against Ae. aegypti. The study was descriptive-experimental. Three soaps made with 20% of the extract + Neutral liquid soap (Mentha piperita L, Lavandula angustifolia) and one mixed (Lavandula angustifolia + Vanilla planifolia) were studied, as a positive control commercial repellent OFF (20% DEET) and 70% alcohol were used. % as Negative Control. The mosquito population used was 50 females of Aedes aegypti (New Orleans strain), the volunteers were 5 men between 25-35 years old. The data was stored in Microsoft Excel and processed with SPSS, Percentage repellency (PRp), Percentage protection (PP) or repellent efficiency and bites/day were calculated. As a result, the (PP) of the Mint soap was 100% at min1, 12% at min60 and 25% at min120, the Lavender soap had 100% protection at min1, 72% at min60 and 20% at at min120, the Lavender+Vanilla soap had a % repellency of 100% at min 1, 99% at min 60 and 87% at min 120. In conclusion, the findings of this study suggest the possibility of replacing synthetic repellents with repellents with essences extracted from plants, however, it is essential to continue with research in various areas of Peru where cases of dengue, Zika and Chikungunya are increasing.

De manera filosófica, la Ética de la Vida se podría definir como el arte de vivir, no solamente desde el punto de vida orgánico… de respirar, reproducirse, sino también a la calidad de vida y por supuesto del sentido de la vida misma. Si la conciencia de la muerte, ya puede definir los límites de nuestra existencia, la sustentabilidad refiere a los pasos del límite de la vida en su órbita biosférica. La muerte entrópica del planeta nos regresa a los inicios de la vida, a la voluntad de vida, con un hito más allá de esa necesidad imperiosa de la conservación de la biodiversidad y supervivencia de la especie humana. Toda ética, implica el desarrollo sustentable implícita en el discurso del “desarrollo sostenible” incluyendo las diferentes culturas, implica la necesidad de conjugar un conjunto de principios básicos dentro de una ética del bien común y de la sustentabilidad.
