Epidemiology of Dengue in Argentina during the 2010/11 to 2019/20 Seasons: A Contribution to the Burden of Disease.

Background: Dengue is an important public health problem in Argentina, as in many other countries. We reviewed and updated information on the dengue disease burden in Argentina over a 10-year period.

Methods: We conducted a retrospective descriptive study from 2010 to 2020 based on data from the National Health Surveillance System.

Adolescent behaviors during the preventive and mandatory social isolation in Argentina in 2020.

Introduction: In March 2020, Argentina established a preventive and mandatory social isolation policy (ASPO, for its acronym in Spanish) due to the COVID-19 pandemic.

Objective: To explore the behaviors and habits of the adolescent population during the ASPO and the extent of compliance.

Population And Methods: Qualitative and quantitative, cross sectional study in Argentine adolescents aged 12-20 years.

Two Aviation Accident Investigation Questionnaires for Passenger and Crew Survival Factors and Injuries.

Background: Review of injuries resulting from aircraft accidents and analysis of their mechanisms have proved helpful in generating and implementing survival-related improvements. Ideally, such information should be correlated with seat belt type and use, as well as any brace position adopted. This information should be recorded and made publicly available to future researchers.

MECS-VINE: A New Proximal Sensor for Segmented Mapping of Vigor and Yield Parameters on Vineyard Rows.

Ground-based proximal sensing of vineyard features is gaining interest due to its ability to serve in even quite small plots with the advantage of being conducted concurrently with normal vineyard practices (i.e., spraying, pruning or soil tilling) with no dependence upon weather conditions, external services or law-imposed limitations.

Clinical characteristics influence screening intervals for diabetic retinopathy.

Aims/hypothesis: Most guidelines recommend annual screening for diabetic retinopathy (DR) but limited resources and the slow progression of DR suggest that longer recall intervals should be considered if patients have no detectable lesions. This study aimed to identify the cumulative incidence and time of development of referable DR in patients with no DR at baseline, classified by clinical characteristics.

Methods: Analysis was performed of data collected prospectively over 20 years in a screening clinic based in a teaching hospital according to a consensus protocol.
