			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p style="text-align: justify;">La Victoza, un medicamento utilizado para bajar de peso por aquellos que sufren de obesidad está mostrando resultados muy satisfactorios para los pacientes que la usan. Liraglutide es el nombre genérico de la droga, y ha sido probado de ayudar a bajar más de 6 kg en 20 semanas.<span id="more-174"></span></p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">La droga, que es administrada a los pacientes mediante inyección, ha sido probada ser más efectiva que otros tratamientos farmacológicos. Para los pacientes obesos es vital bajar de peso, pues tienen que tomar precauciones contra las adversas consecuencias de dicha enfermedad, como por ejemplo diabetes tipo 2, hipertensión, entre otros.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">El estudio realizado con 564 personas provenientes de toda Europa, cuyo índice de masa corporal era entre 30 y 40 (el cual los hace calificar como obesos). Un tercio de los pacientes padecían de “pre-diabetes”, teniendo niveles elevados de glucosa en sangre, pero no lo suficiente para calificar como “diabetes”.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">Los resultados arrojados por el estudio son muy satisfactorios. Con una dosis de 3 MG de Victoza (liraglutide), un régimen de dieta adecuado y un plan de ejercicios, el promedio de pérdida de peso fue de 7.2 kg, y en dosis de 1.2 mg, 1.8 mg and 2.4 mg hubo pérdida de peso de 4.8kg, 5.5kg y 6.3kg respectivamente. Aquellos a quienes se les administraron placebos sólo pudieron perder un promedio de 2.8 kg.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">Debido a que la Victoza (liraglutide) es una droga nueva, se deben hacer estudios que duren más de 5 meses para poder establecer los riesgos/beneficios del uso de liraglutide.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p style="text-align: justify;">Victoza, a pharmaceutical used for weight loss on those who suffer from obesity, is showing very good results on patients who are using it. Liraglutide is the name of the generic drug, and it has been proven to help people lose over 6 kg in 20 weeks.<span id="more-169"></span></p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">The drug, which has been administered to patients via injection, has been proven to be more effective than other pharmacological therapies. For obese individuals, weight loss is vital, since they must take precautions against adversities that are consequences of this illness, as are diabetes type 2, hypertension, among others.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">The study had 564 participants from all over Europe, whose body mass index was between 30 and 40 (which qualifies them as “obese”). One third of the patients included in the study had “pre-diabetes”, having elevated sugar levels in the blood, but not enough to qualify as “diabetes”.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">The results concluded by the study are very satisfactory. With a dosage of 3 mg of Victoza (liraglutide), an adequate dietary regime and an exercise plan, the average weight lost was 7.2 kg (15.9 lb); and in lower doses of 1.2 mg, 1.8 mg and 2.4 mg there was a loss of 4.8 kg (10.5lb), 5.5kg (12.1lb) and 6.3kg (13.9lb)respectively. Those who were given placebos only managed to lose 2.8 kg (6.2lb).</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">Since Victoza (liraglutide) is a new drug, it is recommended that studies are held for longer than 5 months to determine the risks/benefits of the use of liraglutide.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p style="text-align: justify;"><img class="alignright size-full wp-image-140" src="http://www.surgeryinperu.com/blog/wp-content/uploads/2009/08/energia-nuclear1.jpg" alt="energia-nuclear1" width="220" height="160" /> El Centro Nuclear Óscar Miró Quesada de la Guerra, Racso, ubicado en Huarangal, en Comas, Lima, contiene en su interior un reactor el cual cumple con diversas funciones a favor de la salud y el desarrollo.<span id="more-139"></span></p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">Este reactor que existe en el Perú desde hace 21 años, realiza gammagrafías, parecidos a los rayos X mediante el trabajo con radioisótopos  o átomos inestables  y que facilitan hacer los diagnósticos médicos como la precisión en el estudio de los tejidos del cuerpo humano.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">El Instituto Peruano de Energía Nuclear (IPEN) también, a través del reactor, ha creado los radiofármacos programados para eliminar tumores de cáncer localizados en órganos y glándulas. Los paliativos para enfermedades de la tiroides o el cáncer de huesos provienen de material radiactivo generado por un reactor nuclear. Es sabido que en nuestro país, al año se atienden aproximadamente 60 mil pacientes gracias a la medicina nuclear.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">Y finalmente, esta energía nuclear es utilizada en la agricultura, ya que la radiación ionizante se usa en semillas para obtener variaciones mejoradas de alimentos más resistentes al clima y a las plagas, y un período más largo de conservación.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p style="text-align: justify;"><img class="alignleft size-full wp-image-93" src="http://www.surgeryinperu.com/blog/wp-content/uploads/2009/06/cerro-san-cristobal-lima-peru.jpg" alt="cerro-san-cristobal-lima-peru" width="306" height="232" />Saint Cristobal Hill, located in the district of Rimac, reaches 400 meters above sea level. From its summit, you can enjoy fantastic views of the whole of the city of Lima.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">To reach Saint Cristobal, you can take a bus called an ‘urbanito’, which makes its way through the main streets of the historic city center before getting to the top of the hill. The bus stop is very near Government Palace and there are usually plenty of tour agents on hand in both the Main Square and Saint Martin Square.<span id="more-92"></span></p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">The price of the tour is very reasonable, between 5 and 8 soles, depending on the competition. Each tour lasts approximately one hour and most include a running commentary of the attractions that can be seen along the way. Once at the top of the hill, visitors are given 20 minutes to look around and then the bus starts its journey back to the bus stop.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">Descending from the bus, you will see an impressive 20 meter-high concrete cross. It used to be made of iron, and was placed here at the command of Francisco Pizarro in the 16th Century, at the time of the social upheaval caused by the Spanish invasion of the Inca lands. In ancient times it was thought that hills were gods or guardian spirits and also punishers of humankind. But when the Spanish Conquistadors took control they tried to wipe out these ancient beliefs by renaming the hills and by placing crosses on their summits.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">As well as enjoying the view from Saint Cristobal, you can visit the site’s museum to find out more about the history of the hill and to see the vast photographic exhibition of Lima’s past.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">Saint Cristobal Hill is one of the most accessible and interesting parts of old Lima. Come to Peru and find out more about the fascinating history of this grand colonial capital.</p>

<p style="text-align: justify;">Enrico M. Novelli, MD, who is managing the initiative, stated: &#8220;We are enthusiastic to launch this ASH/HVO program in Peru.&#8221;<span id="more-70"></span></p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">The principal aim of the program is to provide specialist hematology training to doctors from hospitals in the previously mentioned regions. Volunteers will provide informative and practical training in both clinical and laboratory issues concerning hematology. They will cover a wide range of blood disorders, such as anemia, abnormal bleeding, clotting, leukemia and lymphoma. Methods designed to enhance the purity of the blood supply will also be taught.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">A range of medical professionals and students will attend the training sessions, including undergraduate medical and laboratory students, postgraduates, fellows, and staff. Volunteers will also help out with the assessment of postgraduate fellow investigations and try to improve the dialogue between laboratory staff and clinicians.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">Both pediatric and adult hematology/oncology clinicians and lab scientists are welcome to attend assignments of 1 - 4 weeks. A working knowledge of Spanish would be useful, but not necessary.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p style="text-align: justify;"><img class="alignleft size-full wp-image-80" title="herbal-product" src="http://www.surgeryinperu.com/blog/wp-content/uploads/2009/05/herbal-product.jpg" alt="herbal-product" width="300" height="213" />Wellington Chumbe, a Peruvian government official seems to be erring towards a ban of all Herbalife products in Peru. From the Medical Federation in Lima, Chumbe stated that the investigation into Herbalife has recently intensified.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">Herbalife distributors heartily endorse the safety and effectiveness of Herbalife products. Typical products include nutritional shake mixes, multivitamin complexes and cell activators. Herbalife formulas can apparently be used to satisfy the appetite, manage weight and boost the metabolism.<span id="more-68"></span></p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">However, professional nutritionist Milagros Haburto is not convinced. Haburto does not recommend the products and stated that Herbalife tells users to “substitute two daily meals with a delicious shake and have a well-balanced meal. This goes against any norm of nutrition when we are talking about a healthy diet.”</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">“My work as a nutritionist is to teach people to eat and enjoy the foods/nutrients that we can find in nature and no shake would or should replace nutritional education.”<br />
Spain has also issued a worldwide alert concerning Herbalife products.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p style="text-align: justify;"><img class="alignleft size-full wp-image-82" title="infant" src="http://www.surgeryinperu.com/blog/wp-content/uploads/2009/05/infant.jpg" alt="infant" width="300" height="197" />Measles is still one of the principal causes of infant death worldwide. It is an extremely contagious and serious illness caused by a virus belonging to the paramyxovirus family. Approximately 197,000 people died from the disease in 2007, mainly children under five years old.<span id="more-65"></span></p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">Yet due to the effectiveness of countrywide prevention and vaccination campaigns, Peru has been free of the disease for the last nine years, according to the country’s Health Ministry. The last registered case was that of David Gómez Núñez from the Ventanilla district of Callao, who was diagnosed with the illness in the year 2000, when he was 3 years old.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">The World Health Organization (WHO) claims that measles vaccination campaigns have led to huge public health gains, resulting in a 74% global decrease in measles deaths between 2000 and 2007. This signifies a decrease of approximately 90% in the eastern Mediterranean and Africa.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p style="text-align: justify;"><img class="alignleft size-full wp-image-84" src="http://www.surgeryinperu.com/blog/wp-content/uploads/2009/05/biology-laboratory.jpg" alt="biology-laboratory" width="300" height="256" />Thanks to the University of California, Peru’s Cayetano Heredia University has been equipped with Latin America’s first molecular biology laboratory.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">The lab includes high-tech optical tweezers which use light to manipulate microscopic objects as small as a single atom. The radiation pressure from a focused laser beam is able to trap small particles. This will enable doctors to find treatments for complex health problems such as multi-drug-resistant TB.<span id="more-60"></span></p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">Tuberculosis is a curable disease that continues to kill millions of people in the third world, offering a clear example of global inequalities in access to health care. Drugs to combat the disease have existed for fifty years, and deaths from TB are uncommon in first world countries. Yet reports from Partners in Health (PIH) state that TB kills 5000 people each day, and nearly 2,000,000 every year.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">During the last fifteen years, incomplete treatments due to lack of medical staff, medicine shortages and socioeconomic barriers have led to a proliferation of multiple-drug-resistant strains of TB. These strains, known as MDR-TB, are now present in many third world countries, such as Peru.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">The country’s new molecular biology laboratory will be able to carry out first rate research into the disease, and hopefully save the lives of many Peruvians.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p style="text-align: justify;"><img class="alignright size-full wp-image-47" title="gripe-porcina-andina" src="http://www.surgeryinperu.com/blog/wp-content/uploads/2009/05/gripe-porcina-andina.jpg" alt="gripe-porcina-andina" width="290" height="193" />Los casos posibles de infectados y de muertes por la gripe AH1N1 o “gripe porcina” en el mundo está aumentando. El Péru no está ajeno a todo esto, pues el Ministerio de Salud y otros organismos del Estado han adoptado todas la medidas necesarias para enfrentar esta epidemia.<span id="more-46"></span></p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">En primera instancia, la Dirección General de Epidemiología (DGE) informó que los servicios de salud intensificarán sus acciones de vigilancia con el tránsito de personas que lleguen de cualquier país, en especial de México y Estados Unidos, a fin de detectar casos de síntomas gripales graves. El DGE cuenta con el Plan Nacional de Preparación y Respuesta frente a una Potencial Pandemia de Influenza.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">En tanto, el presidente regional piurano, César Trelles, informó que se reforzará la parte preventiva a través de una agresiva campaña de comunicación, que lleve los mensajes de las medidas preventivas hacia las poblaciones urbanas y rurales</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;"><strong>Conozca qué es la Influenza Porcina o Gripe Porcina</strong><br />
<strong>Síntomas:</strong> Fiebre repentina de más 38°, tos intensa, dolor de cabeza y de articulaciones intensos, falta de apetito, congestionamiento nasal y malestar general.<br />
<strong>Diagnóstico:</strong> Se realiza a través de un “examen clínico detallado”, que incluye estudios de secreciones de nariz y laringe durante las primeras 24-72 horas y de sangre para identificar anticuerpos.<br />
<strong>Tratamiento:</strong> En los casos confirmados, las autoridades mexicanas suministran los antivirales oseltamivir y zanamivir, pero sólo bajo una estricta supervisión médica ya que son fórmulas “de uso delicado” y su aplicación errónea “no está exenta de efectos secundarios”.<br />
<strong>Medidas preventivas:</strong> Usar tapabocas. No saludar ni de beso ni de mano, no compartir alimentos, cubiertos ni vasos, ventilar las casas y oficinas, permitir la entrada de luz solar, mantener limpias las cubiertas de cocina y baño y los artículos de uso común, como teléfonos, juguetes, audifonos, no acudir a eventos en lugares cerrados donde haya un gran numero de personas. En caso de estornudar hacerlo tapando la boca con el brazo a la altura del angulo interno del codo. Si contrae algun resfriado guarde la calma y no se automedique procure acudir al medico.</p>
