    (2010) Parra Coronel, Janeth Judith; Flores Durán, Carlos Teodoro
    OBJECTIVES: This is a descriptive research,which determines the prevalence of dental fluorosis and its risk factor.- POPULATION AND METHODS.- This research was made among 222 children,from 7 to 13 years old,who live at the rural parishes of Cuenca District.- We measured the fluor concentration in the water resources.We measured the fluor urinary excretion.Risk factors associated to dental fluorosis were looked for.- RESULTS: Schollars distribution according to their age,showed the following ranges:from 7 to 10years old,153 children(68.9%).From 11 to 13 years old: 69(31.1%).The distribution according to the gender was as follows:122(55%) male and a 100(45%)female. The prevalence of dental fluorosis is: 81.1%.The prevalence of dental fluorosis in relation to the level of fluorosis(Dean´s index) is as follows:Very light:23.4%,light 30.2%,moderate :23% and severe:4.1%.- Fluor contents i water ranges from:0.0 to 0.39 ppm.Low level content.- We did not find a significant difference:0,7,between dental fluorosis and fluor in urine when a chi square test was applied. Therefore quantifying fluor in urine is not good marker for detecting dental fluorisis .- CONCLUTIONS.- This research states that there is a high prevalence of dental fluorosis(81%)among 7-13 year old children who live at the rural parishes of Cuenca District.- In relation to the fluor content in water resources,the level was low:0,0-0,39 ppm..Fluor urinary excretion is not a good marker for fluorosis

    Instrumento de medición de resiliencia adolescente
    (2010) Jaramillo Oyervide, Julio Alfredo; Bretas, Gustavo
    Background: A descriptive quantitative pilot study of internal consistency of a diagnostic test was conducted to measure adolescent´s resilience assessment. This instrument named JJ63 is a test that measures the degree of coping strategies used by adolescents based on 9 variables. Objective: To determine the internal consistency of the diagnostic test named JJ63. Materials and Methods: Based on a descriptive research of resilience characteristics in students held in Cuenca city (year 2010) in the Salesian Technical High School, it was designed a measurement instrument of adolescent resilience that was applied to a random population sample 30 students, statistical analysis was performed with Epi Dat version 3.1 and SPSS 15.00 Evaluation. Results: JJ63 test has an internal consistency of 0.8103 Conclusions: The 9 variables of the test JJ63 are successfully associated to measure teen resilience.
