Evaluating Rural Health Disparities in Colombia: Identifying Barriers and Strategies to Advancing Refugee Health.
Int J Environ Res Public Health
October 2023
Health disparities within rural communities, notably those affecting migrant and refugee populations, are well-documented. Refugees often grapple with high disease burdens and mortality rates due to limited access to primary healthcare and their vulnerable socio-economic and political situations. This issue is particularly acute in the rural areas around Medellin, Colombia, where the refugee influx exacerbates the existing public health challenges.

The ACE2 viral receptor has also been detected in the uterus and vagina; Hence, the involvement of the SARS-CoV-2 virus on the genitourinary system and its possible repercussions on pregnancy has been raised.
Aim: To determine the presence of SARS-CoV-2 in endocervical samples of women with COVID-19 in the departments of Paraguay.
Effectiveness of a structured group intervention based on pain neuroscience education for patients with fibromyalgia in primary care: A multicentre randomized open-label controlled trial.
Eur J Pain
May 2021
Article Synopsis
- A study tested a structured group intervention based on pain neuroscience education (PNE) in patients with fibromyalgia (FM), comparing it to standard treatment methods.
- Results showed significant improvements in pain and functional status for patients who received PNE, with higher percentages of participants achieving notable reductions in symptoms versus those in the control group.
- The findings suggest that incorporating PNE into treatment for FM can enhance quality of life and symptom management, potentially leading to better outcomes than traditional approaches.
Kinematics of the Cervical Spine After Unilateral Facet Fracture: An In Vitro Cadaver Study.
Spine (Phila Pa 1976)
September 2017
Study Design: Biomechanical study utilizing human cadaveric cervical spines.
Objective: To quantitatively assess the effects on intervertebral motion of isolated unilateral cervical facet fracture, and after disruption of the intervertebral disc at the same level.
Summary Of Background Data: Clinical evidence has indirectly suggested that cervical facet fractures involving 40% of the height of the lateral mass can cause instability of the involved segment.
