    (Universidad Técnica de Ambato/ Facultad de Ciencias de Salud /Carrera de Laboratorio Clínico, 2024-08-06) Martínez Tubón, Jenny del Rocío; Vilcacundo Córdova, Mario Fernando
    The following bibliographic review article compiles information about the incidence of HPV in women aged 25-40 years and its relationship with cervical cancer during the period 2017-2022 in Ecuador, through which relevant information is sought on the main cause of cervical cancer. The relevant statistical data that indicate the increase or decrease in cases of cervical cancer or other related types of cancer (anogenital and oropharyngeal cancer) in women have been taken into account, but above all the presence of these cases of the types and subtypes of the Low or high risk HPV, recognizing genotype 16 as the highest risk and most dangerous because it is the cause of almost all cervical cancers. The results collected from the database show the progression of human papillomavirus (HPV) from a simple infection to the development of cervical cancer over the years (2017-2022). Furthermore, it is observed how this progression affects different age groups (25-40 years), with emphasis on the possible incidence in younger and older groups. As well as its impact on the person’s mental health, highlighting its danger.

    Estrategia didáctica enfocada en el diagnóstico precoz del cáncer de cuello uterino con base en la caracterización inmunogenética
    (Universidad Técnica de Ambato/ Facultad de Ciencias de Salud /Centro de Posgrados, 2022-12) Villacrés Franco, Diana Carolina Md.; Carrero Castillo, Yenddy PhD.
    Cervical cancer is defined as the uncontrolled proliferation of cells lining the lower part of the uterus. It is currently considered a sexually transmitted infection due to its direct relationship with infection by the human papillomavirus. This neoplasm is a highly preventable pathology, which is why education programs should be aimed at promoting cervical cancer prevention based mainly on the risk factors that have been identified in the pathogenesis of the disease, as well as periodic gynecological control. Primary care includes educational programs aimed at reducing the incidence of pathologies that are highly preventable. The objective of this research was to design a didactic strategy focused on improving the competences of the students of the Gynecology and Obstetrics rotating internship of the Medicine career of the Technical University of Ambato for the early diagnosis of cervical cancer based on the immunogenetic characterization, focused on a developmental research work based on a descriptive study. The results show that the level of knowledge of medical interns about cervical cancer is acceptable, since 65% of interns know the risk factors, types of cervical cancer and screening tests. Also, the interns responded that the main cause for the Teaching-Learning process not being adequate in 40% is the lack of didactic strategies. The study showed that the most used didactic strategies are focused on the traditional teaching method which includes lectures and expository classes given by a teacher expert in the subject where student participation is not significant.

    “Estudio de correlación entre el uso de métodos anticonceptivos y la presencia de lesiones cervicales detectadas en la citología cérvico vaginal exfoliativa de las pacientes que acuden al Hospital General docente Ambato”
    (Universidad Técnica de Ambato - Facultad de Ciencias de la Salud - Carrera de Laboratorio Clínico, 2019-04-01) Toctaquisa Raza, Daisy Morayma; Cevallos Espinel, Johanna AlexandraDra.
    Cervical cancer is considered the most frequent pathology in sexually active women. There are several risk factors to suffer it; Among them is the use of combined oral contraceptive methods (ACO). Therefore, it was proposed to correlate the use of 9 contraceptive methods and the presence of 14 types of cervical lesions according to the Bethesda system, detected in the exfoliative vaginal civic cytologies of patients who come to health centers in the city. zone 3 of the Ministry of Public Health (MSP) and arrives at the Ambato General Teaching Hospital (HGDA) to be analyzed. Through a descriptive analysis of a sample of 272 patients from Zone 3 of the Ministry of Public Health, it is found that, 24.63% (n = 67) of them are the lesions; 4.0% (n = 11) with atypical squamous cells of uncertain significance (ASC-US), 17.0% (n = 46) with low-grade squamous intraepithelial lesion (LSIL), 1.1% (n = 3) with atypical squamous cells where a high-grade intraepithelial lesion (ASC-H), 1.8% (n = 5) high-grade squamous intraepithelial lesion (HSIL), 0.4% (n = 1) with squamous cell carcinoma and atypical endocervical cells can´t be ruled out. Then, it was identified that the contraceptive method most used in patients is the injectable with 39.3% (n = 107), in addition it was determined that 17.0% (n = 46) of the patients had low-grade intraepithelial lesions (LSIL).
