Mastoid emissary in Indian skulls
     En: Folia Morphologica, Volume 57, Issue 3, 1998, Pages 269-274
     Abstract: Two hundred and eleven Indian skulls originating from medieval times, South of Peru, were studied in respect to variability of the mastoid emissary. Occurrence and localisation of the external orifice of the mastoid emissary were studied in three distinct and well-separated populations, living in the three different places: Villa el Salvador, Tablada de Lurin and Paracas. Most of the skulls presented considerable degree of artificial deformation. External orifice of the mastoid emissary was multiple in most of the skulls, especially in Villa el Salvador and Paracas populations. Mastoid emissaries in Indian were situated generally higher than in European, especially regarding the Paracas population. Significant sex differences were present in this material, regarded as a whole (summarized results for the three populations), what is in agreement with previous observations on European skulls. It indicates that even in cases of relatively deep deformation, some characteristic features of sex dimorphism of the human skull are noticeable. Additionally, the three studied populations, which were well separated from each other and lived alone, differed significantly regarding localization of the mastoid emissaries.

Cholera in a district of Peru [El cólera en un distrito de Perú]
     En: Revista Cubana de Medicina Tropical, Volume 48, Issue 3, 1996, Pages 204-208
     Abstract: Taking to consideration the low report of cholera patients and with the main knowing the reality about the introduction of Vibrio cholerae (V. cholerae) in Peru, a sample of 101 cases with acute diarrheal disease (ADD) was taken at the Distrito Villa El Salvador. They were selected by a systematic randomized sampling defined for each health care unit in the District, according to the daily average occurrence of ADD cases attended a week before the beginning of the study. All of them took part in a epidemiological survey. A sample was taken by rectal swab in order to isolate V. cholerae. 53 positive cases were found (52.2% and a confidence interval from 42.29 to 62.5%) with significant differences (p < 0.01) between the frequency in adults (67.3%) and children (34.8%). V. cholerae was isolated only in 13 (61.9%) of the 21 cases who had contact with cholera patients, for a relative risk of 1.24 (0.83 < RR < 1.85). A high positivity was also found, 21 cases (72.4%) among those who had raw food. A significant difference (p < 0.01) was observed in connection with those who had cooked food. In the multivariate logistic regression analysis it was only found a significant relationship with age and with the ingestion of raw food as regards the occurrence of cholera.

    Abstract: Big fish, little fish. This program shows how overfishing by large industrial nations has threatened the lifestyle of Pacific islanders. New training programs and fishing limits, however, have resurrected the local fishing industry -- China's changing face. Shows how by encouraging the growth of small industries in its rural areas, china hopes to prevent a pattern common throughout the developing world, that is, mass migration to the slums of big cities -- City in the sand. This program is filmed in Villa El Salvador, a "model" shanty town outside of Lima, Peru, where residents are working to improve their environment and standard of living -- People of the desert. The fourth program shows how human-induced changes are causing once life-supporting deserts to become uninhabitable. New policies to reduce population pressure and livestock overgrazing are renewing desert life.
