“…This was confirmed in this study, where OR values showed statistically significant influence of symptoms of anxiety, depression and somatization on TMD and where all TMD diagnoses were found associated with each of the studied psychological factors. The psychological conditions have shown to be different between urban and rural zones, not only in Colombia [ 41 , 42 ], but also in other regions of the world [ 43 ]. The influence of psychological factors on TMD in Colombia, may have different conditions compared to other countries, from a demographic point of view.…”

Background Temporomandibular disorders (TMD) are related to psychological factors. Adolescence is one of the stages in life with more psychosocial vulnerability, which is dissimilar in rural and urban zones. Thus, the aim of this investigation was to evaluate the association between psychological factors (symptoms of anxiety, depression and somatization) and TMD in adolescents between 12 and 15 years, belonging to urban and rural zones of Colombia. Methods 180 subjects aged 12–15 years (mean 13.8, SD 1.2), enrolled in public schools in the rural (n = 90) and urban (n = 90) zones were included. All subjects were evaluated using the DC/TMD instrument; the Axis I was applied for the clinical examination and the Axis II for the psychological evaluation. Data were analyzed by means of T-student, Mann–Whitney, Kruskall–Wallis tests, Pearson Chi square and multiple-variable analysis with logistic regression. Results Forty percent of the included subjects presented some type of TMD. TMD related to pain were the most common (25.5% of the studied adolescents), being myalgia the most common (20% of the adolescents in urban zone and 31.1% of the adolescents in the rural zone). There was no difference between the TMD present in males and females, but there were differences in the symptoms of Anxiety, and Somatization (p < 0.05). TMD and psychological factors were more prevalent in children with 13 years of age. A statistically significant association between TMD and symptoms of Anxiety (Pearson Chi squared 25.57, p = 0.04), depression (Pearson Chi squared 33.28, p = 0.03) and somatization (Pearson Chi squared 25.79, p = 0.04) was found in subjects from rural zones. No associations between psychological aspects and TMD were found in subjects from urban zones, but overall all psychological factors significantly influenced TMD. Conclusion This study indicates Myalgia to be the most prevalent TMD in studied Colombian adolescents. Pain-related TMDs are associated with psychological factors in the adolescent population of rural Colombia. Symptoms of anxiety, depression and somatization were found to be associated to TMD, even when the frequency was not necessarily severe.

“…Los resultados de este estudio muestran que, a diferencia de otros países, las variaciones en las tasas de homicidios en Colombia son más pronunciadas en las zonas rurales que en las urbanas (Vallejo et al, 2018). Para el caso de esta investigación, el 90 % de solicitudes para iniciar el protocolo de empleo de ECDRH se realizaron en sectores rurales.…”

Este artículo busca determinar el impacto de los equipos caninos detectores de restos humanos de la Policía Nacional de Colombia durante 10 años, desde que en 2007 se inició un protocolo con binomios (guía-canino). Mediante el estudio de 5 binomios que han desarrollado búsquedas en varias regiones colombianas, se establecen los factores ambientales, el tipo de terreno, el posible grupo criminal implicado y la ubicación geográfica, entre otras muchas variables que participan en los registros realizados tanto en desastres naturales como en casos de desaparición y delitos asociados. Como resultado del análisis de estos escenarios, se hace un aporte a la estrategia para el abordaje de homicidios y desapariciones y el hallazgo de elementos materiales probatorios para la justicia.

“…Globally, Serbia and Canada have explored the impact of aging and mental health services on disease mortality by gender subgroups, respectively [ 8 , 9 ]. The United States, Lithuania, Poland, and many other countries have extensively conducted epidemiological analyses of related disorders from an urban–rural perspective [ 10 , 11 , 12 , 13 ]. However, few epidemiological descriptions of injury and poisoning from an urban–rural perspective are available for mainland China.…”

Injury and poisoning, common public health problems, currently rank fifth among the causes of death in China. In this study, we aimed to analyze the trends and influencing factors of injury and poisoning mortality in urban and rural China using an age-period-cohort model. Crude mortality data for injury and poisoning by sex, age group, and region were obtained from the China Health Statistical Yearbook (2006–2020). Age-standardized mortality rates for injury and poisoning in urban and rural areas were estimated using the Seventh Census of China 2020 population. The trends of injury and poisoning mortality were assessed using Joinpoint analysis. Age–period–cohort models were used to explore the age, period, and birth cohort effects affecting mortality risk. Over a 15-year period, age-standardized mortality rates decreased from 28.81/100,000 in 2006 to 24.78/100,000 in 2020 in urban areas and from 45.49/100,000 to 44.39/100,000 in rural areas. In the male population, the annual change in mortality was −0.4% (95% CI = −1.8%, 1.0%) in urban areas and −1.0% (95% CI = −1.9%, 0.0%) in rural areas. In the female population, the annual change in mortality was −1.2% (95% CI = −2.3%, −0.1%) in urban areas compared with −1.6% (95% CI = −3.1%, −0.1%) in rural areas. The age–period–cohort model showed a significant increase in urban and rural mortality rates starting at ages 49 and 39 years. Both showed a decline followed by an increase in the period. The cohort from 1929 to 2013 showed an overall trend of increasing and then decreasing. From 2006 to 2020, the overall injury and poisoning mortality rates in China showed a decreasing trend, and the mortality rates decreased faster in women than in men and in rural areas than in urban areas. Age effects were the most important risk factors for changes in injury and poisoning mortality. The results of this study will help researchers explore the possible causes of mortality changes in urban and rural areas and provide a scientific basis for injury and poisoning prevention and control priorities and policy formulation in China.
