Proyectos de Investigación
Resumen de los principales proyectos actuales y recientes
INCIDENCIA LOCAL Y EL PODER DE LA COMUNIDAD PARA LA RECUPERACIÓN DEL COVID. (2023-)
<br
Este proyecto interdisciplinario reunirá a académicos y organizaciones comunitarias de Canadá, Brasil y Guatemala. Explorará las experiencias vividas durante la pandemia por organizaciones y activistas de servicios y salud “pequeños” y “locales”.
SOCIOS: La Universidad de Manitoba
FINANCIAMIENTO: New Frontiers in Research Fund
INTELIGENCIA ARTIFICIAL Y MEJORA DE LA CALIDAD PARA REDUCIR LA MORTALIDAD NEONATAL. (2024-)
<br
Este proyecto se basa en el programa de salud móvil de larga data de Wuqu’ Kawoq, pero ahora se centra en iniciativas específicas de mejora de la calidad (incluye soporte mejorado en la toma de decisiones mediante teléfonos inteligentes en tiempo real) para detectar complicaciones neonatales y prevenir muertes neonatales.

PROMOVER LUGARES DE TRABAJO SEGUROS Y SALUDABLES EN HONDURAS, GUATEMALA Y EL SALVADOR (2023-)
El proyecto Promoción de Lugares de Trabajo Seguros y Saludables en Honduras, Guatemala y El Salvador (PREP por el Cambio) busca mejorar las condiciones de seguridad y salud en el trabajo (SST) de los trabajadores de los sectores azucarero y de confecciones (maquila). El proyecto se centrará en enfermedades y lesiones en el lugar de trabajo, enfermedad renal crónica de causas no tradicionales (CKDnt) y COVID-19

ULTRASONIDO DE BAJO COSTO IMPULSADO POR INTELIGENCIA ARTIFICIAL PARA LA CUANTIFICACIÓN AUTOMATIZADA DE HIPERTENSIÓN, PREECLAMPSIA Y RCIU (2023-)
En entornos de bajos recursos, las altas tasas de mortalidad perinatal se deben en parte a los desafíos para acceder a tecnologías asequibles para detectar y monitorear condiciones materno-fetales de alto riesgo, como la restricción del crecimiento intrauterino y la preeclampsia. Para abordar estos problemas, utilizaremos inteligencia artificial para desarrollar técnicas para predecir la restricción del crecimiento intrauterino y la preeclampsia a partir de registros Doppler fetales y maternos portátiles de bajo costo.

EXPOSICIÓN A AFLATOXINAS, FALTA DE CRECIMIENTO Y EL MICROBIOMA INTESTINAL EN LOS NIÑOS DE GUATEMALA RURAL (2023-)
Estudiaremos el papel de la exposición a las aflatoxinas en el crecimiento infantil y si el efecto de las aflatoxinas está mediado por el microbioma intestinal y la inflamación. Evaluaremos la exposición a las aflatoxinas y examinaremos los marcadores de inflamación, la composición y función del microbioma intestinal, la extracción de nutrientes microbianos y la biotransformación microbiana de las aflatoxinas.

EXPLORACIÓN DE FACTORES DE RIESGO Y PREDICTORES DE LA ERC ENDÉMICA EN LAS REGIONES AGRÍCOLAS DE CUATRO PAÍSES DE AMÉRICA CENTRAL (2022-)
La enfermedad renal crónica de origen desconocido (ERCd) se ha cobrado un precio terrible en las familias trabajadoras jóvenes que viven en las zonas rurales de América Central. Este proyecto tiene como objetivo identificar los factores de riesgo para la ERCDu y la disminución de la función renal en cuatro países centroamericanos: Costa Rica, Panamá, Nicaragua y Guatemala. Este trabajo se llevará a cabo a través de la red SALTRA (Programa Centroamericano de Salud, Trabajo y Medio Ambiente) que conecta universidades locales, ONG, organizaciones gubernamentales, autoridades de salud pública y trabajadores de la salud locales.
