    (2025-03-05) Morejón Buenaño, Karol Valentina; Gaibor Gonzalez, Ismael Alvaro; Universidad Técnica de Ambato/ Facultad de Ciencias de Salud /Carrera de Psicología Clínica
    Character strengths and resilience have been key points in the study of positive psychology, which is why this study aimed to analyze the relationship between these two variables. For this purpose, a descriptive cross-sectional study was carried out, in which a sample of 120 adolescents from an educational institution in the city of Ambato, Ecuador, was taken. The Brief Adolescent Strengths Scale (VIA-YOUTH) by Park and Peterson and the Resilience Scale by Wagnild and Young were applied to the sample. As results obtained, using the statistical program Jamovi 2.3.28, the Shapiro Wilk normality test and the Spearman correlation test, it was indicated that there is a slight to moderate positive correlation between the variables of character strengths and resilience. With the results presented, it is concluded that, as character strengths increase in value, resilience tends to rise. In addition, the total sample obtained high mean scores in the strengths: gratitude, solidarity, teamwork and perseverance, as well as high levels of resilience. Although women showed higher mean resilience scores than men, this difference was not statistically significant.

    (Universidad Técnica de Ambato/Facultad de Ciencias de la Salud/Carrera de Medicina, 2020-07-01) Semblantes Paredes, Norma Guadalupe; Carrero Castillo, Yenddy NayghitPhD
    Introduction: Cervical cancer (CaCu) constitutes a growing threat that threatens the lives of women around the world, Ecuador becomes vulnerable to this type of pathologies due to various factors where the lack of adherence to screening and the prevalence of HPV seem to be more relevant indicators. Objective: To correlate the colposcopic and histopathological findings of cervical lesions associated or not with the Human Papilloma Virus (HPV), with the degree of progression to CaCu in patients assisted at SOLCA Tungurahua Oncology Unit. Methodology: This is a prospective descriptive study involving 84 patients, using information documented by SOLCA - Tungurahua Oncology Unit. A correlation was made between the CaCu screening tests and the behavior of the lesions over time, which were directed towards remission, persistence, regression or progression of the disease. Results: Of the 84 patients in the study population, 20 patients started with negative tests and 64 patients had alterations in the screening tests at first contact, whose lesions experienced remission in 30 patients (47%), regression in 1 patient (2%) , persistence in 25 patients (39%), and progression in 8 patients (13%). In the end, 8 patients ended up with a diagnosis of CaCu where colposcopic and histopathological findings were correlated consistently in 75% of cases and HPV had an impact in 88%, respectively. 100% of patients who experienced progression of the cervical pathology were due to the lack of adherence to consecutive screening and timely treatment. Conclusions: This study determined that there is a good correlation between colposcopic and histopathological findings in patients with a diagnosis of UC, where the degree of progression of the lesions is directly associated with the lack of adherence to screening and timely treatment, HPV is a factor risk is important but not essential in the evolution of CaCu, as there are other factors involved in the pathogenesis of the disease.
