    (Universidad Privada Norbert Wiener, 2021-09-08) Huaraca Rojas, Dora; Alfaro Fernández, Paul Rubén
    Objective: To describe and analyze scientific evidence regarding cultural factors related to the dietary habits of pregnant women. Design: The study was a qualitative narrative review. Scope of the study: An exhaustive search of scientific articles published in various virtual databases was conducted. Subjects of the study: It included 33 articles published in virtual databases such as Scielo, Lilacs, and PubMed, during the period from 2016 to 2021. Results: Twenty-eight percent of the reviewed studies employed a cross-sectional methodology. Most studies reported a population where marital status was single, educational level was secondary school, and occupation was homemaking. Beliefs and myths about dietary habits included the notion that pregnant women must eat for two, that working too much is harmful during pregnancy, and that failing to satisfy cravings causes marks on the newborn. Dietary habits among pregnant women were found to be inadequate. Conclusions: The reviewed scientific evidence demonstrates that cultural factors are related to the dietary habits of pregnant women.

    (Universidad Privada Norbert Wiener, 2023-10-23) Garate Hilares, Nataly Naomy; Arauzo Sinchez, Carlos Javier
    The objective of this study was to determine the prevalence of dental erosion according to the Basic Erosive Wear Examination (BEWE) index and its association with dietary habits in children aged 6 to 10 years at the Henrique Palacios Mendiburu educational institution, Lima 2022. The research was framed within a basic methodology, with a quantitative approach and an observational, analytical, and prospective cross-sectional design, with a sample of 145 students. The results revealed a prevalence of dental erosion according to the BEWE index of 31.7%, while 68.3% did not present dental erosion. Additionally, 65.2% of children with dental erosion did not consume erosive beverages, and 73.9% of children with dental erosion did not consume potentially erosive fruits. In conclusion, no significant association was found between the prevalence of dental erosion and dietary habits related to the consumption of erosive beverages and fruits (p > 0.05). These results highlight the need to implement preventive and educational measures to address the issue of dental erosion in this child population.
