The aim of the study was to identify the main risk factors and diagnostic alternatives for Asherman's syndrome through literature review. In an effort to better understand Asherman's syndrome, a descriptive documentary study reviewed articles published from 2019 to 2023 in high-impact journals, selecting 17 for analysis. These included case studies and theoretical sources, highlighting the still unknown pathophysiology of the syndrome. It was confirmed that diagnosis is mainly based on hysterosalpingography and hysteroscopy, although these methods do not guarantee complete endometrial recovery, leading to high recurrence rates and low conception success rates. This underscores the need for complementary therapies to restore the uterine cavity and prevent new adhesions. In addition to the medical challenges, the study highlights the significant emotional and psychological impact of the syndrome, underscoring the importance of emotional and psychological support for those affected, as well as the need to raise awareness and support research to improve their quality of life. In conclusion, partial or total obstruction of the uterine cavity by adhesions is noted as a risk, emphasizing the need for a multidisciplinary approach to treatment. The study highlights the absence of clinical guidelines and awareness in Ecuador, which hinders the management of this condition","PeriodicalId":506303,"journal":{"name":"Salud, Ciencia y Tecnología","volume":"35 2","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2024-04-04","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"140742083","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The aim of the study was to interpret the use of calcium hydroxide as an intra-endodontic medication by means of a literature review. A narrative review of the updated literature was performed, with the aim of describing the effects of CaOH and exposing the different clinical procedures in which it is used, as well as the results of its application in endodontic therapy. Clinical trials, meta-analyses and original and published articles from 2018 to 2023, in English or Spanish, were included. It was found that calcium hydroxide plays a key role in endodontics due to its dissociation into calcium and hydroxyl ions, which contributes to its antimicrobial and biological efficacy. Its clinical application is extensive, including preventive endodontics, direct and indirect pulp capping, pulp curettage and pulpotomies, especially in teeth with incomplete apical development. The mechanism behind its antimicrobial action lies in the diffusion of calcium ions and the increase in pH, which limit the rate and enhance the antimicrobial effect in root canals. It was concluded that, for an effective endodontic treatment, it is necessary to eliminate all microorganisms from the root canal. In addition, the microorganism such as E. faecalis has a high resistance to endodontic treatment, which is due to its ability to penetrate into the dentinal tubules, tolerate high alkalinity, and form biofilms","PeriodicalId":506303,"journal":{"name":"Salud, Ciencia y Tecnología","volume":"18 6","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2024-04-04","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"140743805","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The aim of this study was to analyze, by means of a literature review using PRISMA 2020 methodology, the laparoscopic surgical complications of ovarian cysts. The study was framed in the exploratory research level, using hermeneutics to analyze the systematic review developed in the databases Medline, PubMed, ScienceDirect and Google Scholar, from which 16 documents were finally included. It was shown that the main complications of laparoscopic surgery are vascular and intestinal damage, but less serious and frequent complications such as bladder and urethral damage, hernias and infections can also occur. We found that laparoscopic surgery has emerged as the preferred modality for the investigation, diagnosis and treatment of a wide range of diseases, including ovarian cystectomy. Although this form of minimally invasive surgery has numerous advantages, including a lower incidence of complications, it is not without risk.

A survey was carried out with the objective of analyzing the incidence of cigarette consumption, whether traditional or electronic, in students from third to sixth level of the Dentistry course of the Universidad Regional Autónoma de los Andes UNIANDES, Ibarra campus. In addition, articles extracted from PubMed were reviewed to contribute to the research on the consequences of the consumption of nicotine products. It was found that there was a higher rate of tobacco consumption in women, who opt for the use of traditional cigarettes, which is worrisome because despite knowing that it affects their oral health and have bleeding when brushing their teeth, they continue to consume nicotine products.

The objective of this systematic review was to analyze the causes of refusal to use contraceptive methods in university students based on a systematic literature review. For the development of the research, a search of electronic documents was carried out in databases such as PubMed, Scopus, Medline and Embase. Fourteen scientific articles were selected by applying the PRISMA 2020 guidelines, using descriptors such as: (\"level of knowledge about contraceptive methods\" OR \"refusal to use contraceptive methods\") AND (\"University students\") and an evaluation of the quality of the articles based on the use of the STROBE guidelines. The results reflected that most studies agree that students are knowledgeable about contraceptive methods, but do not use contraceptives for the most part. The main causes of refusal are related to inappropriate sexual behaviors, alcohol and drug abuse, early age of sexual debut, gender stereotypes, religion, lack of family counseling, and misuse of contraceptives. Currently, the education and training of students is a key factor in the prevention of unwanted pregnancies and sexually transmitted diseases","PeriodicalId":506303,"journal":{"name":"Salud, Ciencia y Tecnología","volume":"5 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2024-04-04","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"140743768","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Methods: An observational, analytical, cross-sectional and with a quantitative approach with 75 individuals with post COVID-19 syndrome after hospitalization.
