    Objective: To systematically analyze the available evidence from studies on the efficacy of percutaneous aspiration versus tube drainage for the treatment of patients with pneumothorax. Materials and methods: A systematic review of 11 scientific articles on the efficacy of percutaneous aspiration versus tube drainage for the treatment of patients with pneumothorax was conducted in the following databases: Cochrane, Lilacs, Scielo, Medline, and PubMed; all of them were analyzed according to the GRADE scale to determine their strength and quality of evidence. Results: Of the 11 articles reviewed, 72% (8/11) correspond to systematic reviews and meta-analyses, while 38% (3/11) correspond to prospective studies. Of the 11 articles systematically reviewed, 80% (9/11) demonstrate the efficacy of percutaneous aspiration versus tube drainage for the treatment of patients with pneumothorax. Conclusions: Of the 11 articles reviewed, 80% (9/11) demonstrate the efficacy of percutaneous aspiration vs. tube drainage for the treatment of patients with pneumothorax.

    (Universidad Privada Norbert Wiener, 2013) Gonzáles Navarro, Marilú Esther; Robles Vargas, Julia María; Mocarro Aguilar, María Rosario
    This research study is quantitative, descriptive, retrospective, and cross-sectional. Its objective was to determine the risk of depression in older adults according to the Yesavage test at the Rodulfa Viuda de Canevaro Residential Center in December 2011. The population consisted of 353 adults aged 60 and older. Using Cochran's equation, a sample of 153 older adults was calculated. The technique applied was an interview, using the Yesavage test as the instrument. According to the results, 50.3% (77) showed a moderate risk of depression, and 28.1% (43) showed a severe risk of depression. Regarding age, it was found that 19.6% of those in the 60-70 and 71-80 age groups presented a moderate risk of depression. Additionally, regarding gender, the study showed that 28% (43) of females and 22.2% (34) of males presented a moderate risk of depression. It was concluded that, according to the Yesavage test, more than 50% of the respondents show a moderate risk of depression. No significant differences were found in the relationship between depression, age, and gender.
