Introducción: la leptospirosis es una enfermedad zoonótica transmitida por varias
especies de animales domésticos y silvestres que actúan como reservorios del
agente causal y que afecta humanos que habitan áreas urbanas y rurales en el
mundo.
Objetivo: determinar la seroprevalencia de anticuerpos contra Leptospira sp. y los
serogrupos dominantes, en pacientes con síndrome febril no palúdico del
departamento del Meta, Colombia.
Métodos: se realizó un estudio prospectivo de corte trasversal. La población la
conformó todo paciente febril que asistiera a un hospital en la ciudad de
Villavicencio, entre mayo de 2013 y junio de 2014. Los sueros pareados fueron
procesados utilizando la prueba de microaglutinación con los serogrupos: Australis,
Ballum, Bataviae, Canicola, Cynopteri, Panama, Pyrogenes, Sejroe, Semaranga. Se
practicaron pruebas para diagnóstico de dengue (detección de anticuerpos IgM e
IgG por ELISA), rickettsiosis (detección de anticuerpos IgG por inmunofluoresencia
indirecta), hantavirosis (detección de anticuerpos IgG por ELISA).
Resultados: de los 100 sueros estudiados, 29 resultaron positivos para
leptospirosis. Los serogrupos más prevalentes fueron Canicola y Ballum.
Conclusiones: los resultados de la prevalencia de leptospirosis muestran que esta
enfermedad es subregistrada en la zona, por lo que sería recomendable que
estuviera dentro del diagnóstico diferencial de los síndromes febriles.

The current knowledge society has driven an unprecedented mobility of people,
especially scientists, from emerging economies to developed countries. This mobility can
allow the development of human talent and the access to first class infrastructure and
resources, but it can also mean a loss for emerging economies due to the phenomenon
of brain drain. To counteract this situation, some countries in Latin America and the
Caribbean have developed models for the articulation of their scientific diaspora in
projects and programs, with the aim of exchanging knowledge and capitalizing on
human and technical resources to advance science, technology and innovation systems.
Likewise, science diplomacy has become a tool for interlinking the work of various
actors in order to advance the solution of national, transnational or global problems
through scientific advice. Scientific diasporas are vital in new structures of cooperation,
enabling them to innovate and solve problems jointly, advising their countries of origin
and articulating policies and programs. This research seeks to analyze the interactions
and initiatives identified between the organized scientific diaspora from Latin America
and the Caribbean and their countries of origin in relation to science diplomacy
processes, providing recommendations and proposals for public policy to improve the
interaction between the diaspora and the governments of their countries of origin. Results
show that diaspora organizations from Latin America and the Caribbean engage with
governmental and non-state actors and are active science diplomacy stakeholders
promoting the scientific developments of their country or their researchers, as well as
enabling access to research resources creating alliances for scientific, institutional and
academic collaborations. In the cases studied, these efforts are planned and executed
by the diaspora without responding to any science diplomacy strategy of the country.
Policies and programs are needed to effectively link the scientific diaspora organizations
to the interests of the countries

Objective: To characterize the typologies of child
sexual abusers based on judicial files registered in
a center of attention to victims of sexual abuse in
Sincelejo.
Method: Quantitative with a descriptive scope, as
an instrument an analysis guide validated by experts
was used to analyze the 112 judicial files registered
between 2016-2020 in the center.
Results: It was found that the sexual abuser shows a
preference for the crime of sexual acts with children
under 14 years of age, and for people in the age
range of 10 to 14 years, likewise the place where they
perpetrate the crime is at the home of the abused or
abuser, the victim is known by the abuser and used
strategies such as deception, blackmail and threat to
commit the act of abuse.
Conclusion: Child sexual abusers are generally older
individuals who are not in control of their sexual
behavior and manipulators who integrate into society
and harm the most vulnerable in a silent way
