| |  | Ortiz, Z. | El rol de la Epidemiología en la Educación Médica read moreAbstract: Objetivos: describir dispositivos pedagógicos necesarios para planificar la capacitación en
epidemiología y reflexionar sobre la enseñanza de epidemiología dentro de la educación médica en nuestro país.
Revisión: Las teorías y evidencias del campo de la educación muestran que hay modelos que producen aprendizaje significativo sobre todo los que promueven un estudiante activo. La investigación sobre las experiencias de grado y la enseñanza de epidemiología es limitada. Respecto a los postgrados la evidencia describe que la epidemiología es enseñada a través de cursos y talleres sobre apreciación crítica. La educación en epidemiología aparece hoy fragmentada,
descontextualizada y basada en conferencias con poco nexo a la práctica.
Las carreras de pregrado siguen mayoritariamente adscriptas a un modelo basado en disciplinas. La
epidemiología es enseñada durante un año de la carrera y nunca más se vuelve a revisar. Son excepciones la Universidad Nacional de Rosario, la de Cuyo, la Universidad Nacional del Sur y la de Tucumán, a las que se suman algunas Universidades privadas.
Conclusiones: La gradualidad, texto unificado, integración en el desarrollo curricular, fomento de
autoaprendizaje, aprendizaje contextual y reflexión en acción son instrumentos claves para planificar la enseñanza en epidemiología y deberían incorporarse a la mayoría de los programas. | 2004 |

| |  | Woolhouse, M. | Epidemiology: Foot-and-mouth disease under control in the UK read moreAbstract: Following the first reported case on 20 February this year, foot-and-mouth disease spread to over 1,500 livestock farms in the United Kingdom by the end of April. From late March, the Ministry of Agriculture, Fisheries and Food (MAFF) required livestock on infected farms to be culled within 24 hours of the disease being reported and those on neighbouring farms within 48 hours. Here we investigate whether progress towards meeting these targets has had a detectable impact on the course of the epidemic in the United Kingdom. We conclude that it has now been brought under control, but it will be important to contain rapidly any new outbreaks in previously unaffected areas. | 2001 |

| |  | Piehlmeier, W. | Screening of diabetic patients for microalbuminuria in primary care--The PROSIT-Project. Proteinuria Screening and Intervention read moreAbstract: The PROSIT (Proteinuria Screening and Intervention) Project started in 1993 in order to obtain data on the prevalence of micro- and macroalbuminuria in diabetic patients treated in primary care, to establish an easy screening programme for microalbuminuria, in which also diabetic patients can participate in self-responsibility, and to implement a specific intervention programme for incipient nephropathy. In 58 representative doctors offices 647 diabetic patients were included, who performed at home self-tests for microalbuminuria on three days within one week using the early morning urine and a newly developed qualitative immunologic test-strip for microalbuminuria. After storage they returned the same urine samples to their doctors offices for semiquantitative retesting with the immunologic test-strip Micral-Test II. In case of positive results the proteinuria dipstick Combur-9-Test was applied in order to exclude other causes of positive microalbuminuria (e.g. urinary tract infection). Data of 569 patients (6\% Type 1, 88\% Type 2 and 6\% secondary diabetes) could be analysed. Both qualitative self-testing for microalbuminuria at home and semiquantitative retesting in doctors offices were found to be feasible. Based on semiquantitative retesting the prevalences of microalbuminuria (macroalbuminuria) were 19.6\% (0\%) in Type 1 diabetes, 17.2\% (10.8\%) in Type 2 diabetes and 11.7\% (7.8\%) in secondary diabetes. Type 2 diabetic patients showed a clear correlation between albuminuria and diabetes duration, HbA1c, serum creatinine, triglycerides as well as micro- and macrovascular complications. 227 patients with micro- or macroalbuminuria were included into the ongoing PROSIT intervention programme. | 1999 |

| |  | Kohen, Jorge A. | Nuevas relaciones laborales y salud de los trabajadores en Argentina: desafíos y perspectivas para la investigación read moreAbstract: Se analizan los cambios operados en las relaciones laborales, la legislación sobre enfermedades y accidentes de trabajo,así como el impacto en la salud de los trabajadores (1989-1995). Se comprueba un incremento de los índices de desocupación, subempleo, cuentapropismo y nuevas formas de contratación. Se exponen los mecanismos de traspaso de la responsabilidad en la prevención que realizó el estado en las aseguradoras de riesgos en el trabajo. La discusión teórica de la causalidad adquiere dimensión político-práctica. Se verifica un incremento de los accidentes de trabajo a partir de la reforma laboral. Las investigaciones desarrolladas por universidades, ONGs y sindicatos ponen de manifiesto los perfiles de alteraciones en la salud de los trabajadores asalariados, cuentapropistas y subempleados. Los tres Encuentros Nacionales de Trabajo y Salud (1992-1994), crearon un espacio de confluencia entre el saber académico y el de los trabajadores, con una producción que registra 128 ponencias, investigaciones y trabajos, constituyéndose en una instancia superadora, como nuevos modelos de vigilancia epidemiológica e intervención. Se analizan las investigaciones nacionales de la Confederación de Trabajadores de la Educación y la Asociación de Trabajadores del Estado. | 1997 |
