(MDPI, 2022) León-Giraldo, Hoover; Rivera-Lozada, Oriana; Castro-Alzate, Elvis Siprian; Aylas-Salcedo, Rula; Pacheco-López, Robinson; Bonilla-Asalde, César Antonio
“Objective: To identify factors associated with mortality in indigenous populations diagnosed with tuberculosis in Peru, 2015–2019. Methods: We conducted a nested case-control study in a retrospective cohort using the registry of indigenous peoples of the National Health Strategy for TB Prevention and Control of the Ministry of Health of Peru. A descriptive analysis was performed, and then bivariate and multivariate logistic regression was used to evaluate associations between the variables and the outcome (alive–deceased). The results are shown as OR with their respective 95% confidence intervals. Results: The mortality rate of the total indigenous population of Peru was 1.75 deaths per 100,000 indigenous people diagnosed with TB. The community of Kukama Kukamiria-Yagua reported 505 (28.48%) individuals, followed by the Shipibo-Konibo community with 385. The final logistic model showed that indigenous males (OR = 1.93; 95% CI: 1.001–3.7) with a history of HIV prior to TB (OR = 16.7; 95% CI: 4.7–58.7), and indigenous people in old age (OR = 2.95; 95% CI: 1.5–5.7) were factors associated with a greater chance of dying from TB. Conclusions: It is important to reorient health services among indigenous populations, especially those related to improving a timely diagnosis and early treatment of TB/HIV co-infection, to ensure comprehensive care for this population considering that they are vulnerable groups“

Fear of COVID-19, risk perception and preventive behavior in health workers: a cross-sectional analysis in middle-income Latin American countries
(FRONTIERS MEDIA SA, 2023-06-15) Bonilla-Asalde, César Antonio; Rivera-Lozada, Oriana ; Ipanaqué-Zapata, Miguel; Siprian Castro-Alzate, Elvis ; Pacheco-Lopez, Robinson ; Rivera-lozada, Isabel Cristina ; Chong, Félix ; Ramírez Sagastume, Lucrecia
The aim of this study was to examine the association between fear of COVID-19 and risk perception with preventive behavior in health professionals from four Latin American countries. An analytical cross-sectional study was conducted. Health professionals with on-site care in Colombia, Ecuador, Guatemala, and Peru were surveyed. Information was collected through an online self-report questionnaire. The main variables were preventive behavior as the dependent variable and fear of COVID-19 and risk perception as independent variables. Linear regression was used, and unstandardized beta coefficient and value of ps were calculated. Four hundred and thirty-five health professionals were included, the majority were aged 42 years or older (45.29, 95%CI: 40.65–50.01) and female (67.82, 95%CI: 63.27–72.05). It was shown that the greater the fear of COVID-19, the greater the preventive behavior of COVID-19 infection (B = 2.21, p = 0.002 for total behavior; B = 1.12, p = 0.037 for additional protection at work; B = 1.11, p

The risk perception of COVID-19 infection had a slight direct relationship with preventive behaviours (B = 0.28, p = 0.021 for total behavior; B = 0.13, p = 0.015 for hand washing), with the exception of the preventive behavior of using additional protection at work (p = 0.339). We found that fear and risk perception are associated with increased practice of hand washing and use of additional protection at work. Further studies are required on the influence of working conditions, job performance and the occurrence of mental health problems in frontline personnel with regard to COVID-19.“
