Publicación Acceso abierto Alta frecuencia de seroconversión toxoplásmica en gestantes de Sincelejo – Sucre.(Bogotá , Colombia: Revista Infectio , 2004., 2019-10-25) Machado Torres, Nina Patricia; Manrique Carrascal, Elvin Eduardo; Ruíz Hoyos, Bayron Manuel; Blanco Tuirán, Pedro José; Asociación Colombiana de infectología.El propósito de esta investigación es determinar la seroprevalencia y frecuencia de seroconversión para la toxoplasmosis en un grupo de 100 gestantes de la ciudad de Sincelejo (Sucre).Publicación Acceso abierto Alta prevalencia de infección por Leishmania (Kinetoplastidae: Trypanosomatidae) en perros del norte de Colombia.(Bogotá, Colombia: Revista Biomédica, 2013., 2019-10-03) Paternina Gómez, Díaz Olmos, Yiris Margaret; Paternina, Bejarano, Eduar Elías Luis EnriqueAlthough the dog is considered to be the main domestic reservoir of Leishmania infantum in several Latin American countries, the rate of infection with Leishmania parasites remains unknown in dogs from foci of visceral leishmaniasis of northern of Colombia. Objetive: To determine the prevalence of Leishmania infection in canine population from department of Sucre in northern Colombia.Publicación Acceso abierto Detección de anticuerpos anti-leishmania (trypanosomatidae) en poblaciones caninas del departamento de Sucre, Colombia.(Bogotá, Colombia: Acta biológica Colombiana, 2016., 2019-10-01) Paternina Tuirán, Luis Enrique; Díaz Olmos, Yiris Arleth; Paternina Gómez, Margaret; Carrillo Bonilla, Lina María; Vélez, Iván Darío; Bejarano, Eduar ElíasThe aim of this survey was to determine prevalence of antibodies against Leishmania in dogs from Sucre, Colombia. We analyzed 122 dogs in rural areas from municipalities of Sampués, Ovejas and Sincelejo, by indirect immunofluorescence (IFA). Anti-Leishmania antibodies were detected in 69.6 % (95 % CI = 61.1 to 78.2) of the selected canine population. In the municipality of Sincelejo, Sampues and Ovejas, the seropositivities were 72 % (95 % CI = 61.1 to 82.8), 68.4 % (95 % CI = 52.3 to 84.5) and 55.5 % (95 % CI = 21.2 to 86.3) respectively. Seropositive animals were mainly young and adult dogs. The 17.6 % of seropositive dogs showed clinical signs compatible with canine leishmaniasis; onychogryphosis, alopecia and cachexia were the most common ones. The detected high frequency of canines with antibodies against Leishmania in the present study, highlights the hyperendemicity status of canine leishmaniasis in this area of the country and the high risk of disease outbreaks.Publicación Sólo datos Leptospirosis: enfermedad de gran importancia en salud pública.(Universidad de Sucre, 2019-05-14) Bautista T, Brayan Raul; Bulla Castañeda, Diana María; López B, Henrry Alexander; Díaz A, Adriana María; Pulido M, Martín OrlandoPublicación Acceso abierto Seroprevalencia de la enfermedad de Chagas y factores de riesgo asociados en una población de Morroa, Sucre.(Bogotá, Colombia: Revista Biomédica, 2007., 2019-10-22) Hoyos, Richard; Pacheco, Lisandro; Agudelo, Luz Adriana; Zafra, German; Blanco, Pedro; Triana, OmarChagas disease is a major public health problem in Latin America. In Colombia, a large area has the ecoepidemiological conditions which favor the active transmition of this infection. This study was undertaken in a population from the municipality of Morroa, Sucre Province, to evaluate risk factors and to determine the seroprevalence to Chagas disease.
