Predictive machine learning applying cross industry standard process for data mining for the diagnosis of diabetes mellitus type 2
Garcia-Rios, Victor; Marres-Salhuana, Marieta; Sierra-Liñan, Fernando; Cabanillas-Carbonell, Michael
Currently, type 2 diabetes mellitus is one of the world's most prevalent
diseases and has claimed millions of people's lives. The present research aims
to know the impact of the use of machine learning in the diagnostic process
of type 2 diabetes mellitus and to offer a tool that facilitates the diagnosis of
the dis-ease quickly and easily. Different machine learning models were
designed and compared, being random forest was the algorithm that generated
the model with the best performance (90.43% accuracy), which was integrated
into a web platform, working with the PIMA dataset, which was validated by
specialists from the Peruvian League for the Fight against Diabetes
organization. The result was a decrease of (A) 88.28% in the information
collection time, (B) 99.99% in the diagnosis time, (C) 44.42% in the diagnosis
cost, and (D) 100% in the level of difficulty, concluding that the application
of machine learning can significantly optimize the diagnostic process of type
2 diabetes mellitus.

Narrative Review on the Therapeutic Approach to Violence against Women during the COVID-19 Pandemic in Latin America
Cjuno, Julio; Ordóñez León, Patricia; Richard, Sara; Quinteros, Damaris; Hernández, Ronald M.
Violence against women during the pandemic
has become a problem that has affected the world and to
date has caused the death of many women. Although
mental health has shown a growing interest in research, it
is still very susceptible to being affected. This research
described the scientific literature on the challenges in the
psychotherapeutic approach in victims of violence against
women during the COVID-19 pandemic in Latin America.
A narrative review was carried out with a search of
documents in the Scopus, Web of Science and PubMed
databases, using descriptors for women, violence against
women, COVID-19 and Latin America. As a result, 12
studies were included, which reported that the use of
helplines, digital platforms of care and teletherapy were
advantageous in several Latin American countries during
the pandemic; difficulties were found in the accessibility of
care for cases, collapse of telephone lines, technical
problems of the system and the need for training for health
professionals and service providers. It can be concluded
that the coping strategies most used during the pandemic
were the help services, through telephone and virtual care;
there was difficulty in following up and monitoring the case
in the medium and long terms, so further studies could
focus on it. The main limitation of this work is
methodological, since a number of studies could have been
excluded from the searches for not including some of the terms in the search equation.

Infant mortality rates and pneumococcal vaccines: a time-series trend analysis in 194 countries, 1950–2020

Pneumonia due to Streptococcus pneumoniae
(pneumococcus) is a major cause of mortality in infants
(children under 1 year of age), and pneumococcal
conjugate vaccines (PCVs), delivered during the first year
of life, are available since the year 2000. Given those two
premises, the conclusion follows logically that favourable
impact reported for PCVs in preventing pneumococcal
disease should be reflected in the infant mortality rates
(IMRs) from all causes. Using publicly available datasets,
country-level IMR estimates from UNICEF and PCV
introduction status from WHO, country-specific time series
analysed the temporal relationship between annual IMRs
and the introduction of PCVs, providing a unique context
into the long-term secular trends of IMRs in countries
that included and countries that did not include PCVs in
their national immunisation programmes. PCV status was
available for 194 countries during the period 1950–2020:
150 (77.3%) of these countries achieved nationwide PCV
coverage at some point after the year 2000, 13 (6.7%)
achieved only partial or temporary PCV coverage, and 31
(15.9%) never introduced PCVs to their population. One
hundred and thirty-nine (92.7%) of countries that reported
a decreasing (negative) trend in IMR, also reported a
strong correlation with decreasing maternal mortality
rates (MMRs), suggesting an improvement in overall child/
mother healthcare. Conversely, all but one of the countries
that never introduced PCVs in their national immunisation
programme also reported a decreasing trend in IMR that
strongly correlates with MMRs. IMRs have been decreasing
for decades all over the world, but this latest decrease may
not be related to PCVs.

Introducción:
La procrastinación académica (AP) es un fenómeno global que afecta significativamente a los estudiantes universitarios, influyendo potencialmente en su rendimiento académico y bienestar mental.
Objetivo:
Investigar la relación entre los niveles de procrastinación académica y el rendimiento académico de estudiantes de enfermería durante su pasantía en el Perú.
Métodos:
Se realizó un estudio transversal, involucrando a 112 pasantes de enfermería, de 18 años y más, matriculados en el semestre 2019-I. Los participantes completaron la Escala de Procrastinación Académica (EPA), una escala tipo Likert que consta de 12 ítems, que midió dos dimensiones: autorregulación académica (9 ítems) y procrastinación de actividades (3 ítems). Se utilizó una puntuación umbral de 36 puntos para identificar altos niveles de procrastinación académica. El rendimiento académico se evaluó en una escala de 0 a 10 (reprobado), 11 a 14 (aprobado), 15 a 17 (notable) y 18 a 20 (sobresaliente).
Resultados:
La edad media de los participantes fue de 29 años, siendo el 88,4% mujeres. El estudio encontró que el 72,3% de los estudiantes de enfermería exhibieron niveles más altos de AP, particularmente entre las mujeres (62,5%) y los estudiantes más jóvenes (59,8%). A escala global, el 70,3% de los estudiantes obtuvo una calificación notable, y el 51,8% de estos estudiantes también exhibió un alto nivel de AP. Sin embargo, no se encontraron diferencias significativas en el rendimiento académico según el nivel de AP (p=0,918).
Conclusión:
Aunque los estudiantes de enfermería mostraron un mayor nivel de AP, este estudio no encontró una asociación significativa entre la procrastinación académica y el rendimiento académico durante el período de prácticas. Sin embargo, es crucial monitorear la AP en estudiantes de enfermería a lo largo de sus estudios para identificar factores potenciales que puedan contribuir a su impacto y desarrollar estrategias para mitigar sus efectos.
