TL;DR: In this article, a documental-descriptivo approach is presented to demostrar the vinculcation entre the problematica de genero, vista como una construccion social, donde confluyen la cultura, y las relaciones de poder, and los esfuerzos realizados in nuestro continente por alcanzar the cultura de paz.
Abstract: La cultura de paz en positivo esta relacionada con la practica de valores de amor, respeto, tolerancia, honestidad y equidad. No se puede ejercer paz en positivo cuando existe injusticia, cuando se carece de condiciones basicas para el desarrollo personal, cuando son “otras voces” las que se consideran poseedoras del conocimiento absoluto. Esta investigacion, de caracter documental-descriptivo, intenta demostrar la vinculacion entre la problematica de genero, vista como una construccion social, donde confluyen la cultura, y las relaciones de poder, y los esfuerzos realizados en nuestro continente por alcanzar la cultura de paz. Se realiza una interpretacion critica del feminismo, su devenir historico desde la epoca postcolonial, hasta su concrecion actual en el llamado “feminismo dialogico”; y la relacion con el discurso y la paz. El feminismo dialogico es una propuesta que estimula el dialogo, la inclusion y el entendimiento para fortalecer la cultura de paz. Nicaragua es testimonio.

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors investigated the SARS-CoV-2 infection status and antibody responses in 157 patients seeking care for a respiratory disease suggestive of COVID-19 in private healthcare clinics during the first wave (June-October 2020) of infections in Nicaragua.
Abstract: New information is emerging about SARS-CoV-2 epidemiology and immunity, but little of this information comes from low- and middle-income countries or from patients receiving care in the outpatient setting. The current study investigated the SARS-CoV-2 infection status and antibody responses in 157 patients seeking care for a respiratory disease suggestive of COVID-19 in private healthcare clinics during the first wave (June-October 2020) of infections in Nicaragua. We examined nasal swabs for the presence of viral RNA via RT-PCR and longitudinally collected sera for the changes in SARS-CoV-2 Spike antibody levels over six months. Among patients with confirmed SARS-CoV-2 infections, we evaluated if clinical symptoms were associated with age, hematological parameters and co-morbidities. The combination of PCR and paired serology identified 60 (38%) of the 157 outpatients as acute COVID-19. While both PCR and serology identified the majority (n = 38, 64%) of the acute infections, a notable number of outpatients were identified by RT-qPCR (n = 13, 22%) or by serology (n = 9, 14%) only. During the longitudinal study, we identified 6 new infections by serology among the 97 non-COVID-19 subjects. In conclusion, this study report that more than one third of the outpatients seeking care for acute respiratory disease during the first epidemic wave of SARS-CoV-2 in Nicaragua had an acute mild COVID-19 infection that correlate with prolonged humoral response. This immune response to the RBD antigen, more likely IgG dependent, significantly increased between the acute to convalescent and decay in the late convalescent but still remained seropositive.

TL;DR: In a recent study, this article found that el abuso sexual durante la infancia was reportada por el 8.9% [IC95% (6.1, 11.8, 19.2%) of the encuestados.
Abstract: Las drogas ilicitas junto con el abuso sexual durante la infancia son responsables de una considerable morbilidad en el mundo. Los resultados del presente estudio muestran que el abuso sexual fue reportada por el 8.9% [IC95% (6.1%, 11.8%)] de los encuestados. La prevalencia del consumo de drogas ilicitas (Cannabis, Cocaina, Extasis o Heroina) en el ultimo ano fue del 15.5% [IC95% (11.8%, 19.2%)]. Despues de haber ajustado los Modelos Lineales Generalizados por sexo, edad y procedencia de los estudiantes, se determino que estudiantes del sexo femenino que fueron victima de abuso sexual durante la infancia tienen 2.3 [p=0.01; IC95%; (1.2, 4.5)] mas posibilidades de consumir drogas ilicitas en comparacion con estudiantes del sexo femenino que no sufrieron de este tipo de abusos. Estos resultados ponen de manifiesto la magnitud del abuso sexual durante la infancia y su relacion, a largo plazo, en el consumo de drogas ilicitas.
