    Abstract Introduction: a gluten-free diet (GFD) is the treatment for celiac disease (CD), with adherence oscillating between 42 % and 91 %. The purpose of this study was to assess adherence to GFD and its relation to quality of life in Chilean celiac patients.
    Methods: three surveys were performed on-line: sociodemographic-health status, adherence to GFD and quality of life.
    Results: forty-eight per cent of respondents reported an excellent adherence to GFD and 49 % a good quality of life.
    Conclusions: adherence to GFD is low among Chilean celiac patients.

    Abstract Background: Peritoneal dialysis (PD) is gaining track as an efficient/affordable therapy in poor settings. Yet, there is little data regarding differences in quality of life (QoL) of primary caregivers (PCG) of patients in PD and hemodialysis (HD).
    Aim: To compare the QoL of PCG of patients in PD and HD from an upper middle-income population in a Mexican city.
    Methods: Cross-sectional study was carried out with PCG of patients in PD (n=42) and HD (n=95) from 4 hospitals (response rate=70.2%). The SF 36-item QoL questionnaire, the Zarit burden interview, and the Goldberg anxiety/depression scale were used. Mean normalized scores for each QoL domain were compared by dialysis type. Adjusted odds were computed using logistic regression to determine the probability of low QoL (<70% of maximum possible score resulting from the added scores of the 8 dimensions).
    Results: The PD group had higher mean scores for emotional role functioning (+10.6; p=0.04), physical functioning (+9.2; p=0.002), bodily pain (+9.2; p=0.07), social functioning (+5.7; p=0.25), and mental health (+1.3; p=0.71); the HD group had higher scores for physical role functioning (+7.9, p=0.14), general health perception (+6.1; p=0.05), and vitality (+3.3; p=0.36). A non-significant OR was seen in multivariate regression (1.51; 95% CI 0.43-5.31). Zarit scores were similar, but workload levels were lower in the PD group (medium/high: PD 7.2%, HD 14.8%). Anxiety (HD 50.5%, PD 19%; p<0.01) and depression (HD 49.5%, PD 16.7%; p<0.01) were also lower in the PD group.
    Conclusion: Adjusted analysis showed no differences in the probability of low QoL between the groups. These findings add to the value of PD, and strengthen its importance in resource-limited settings.

    Title translation Results of abdominal wall closure using the 4:1 suture/wound lenght technique.
    Abstract Background: Laparotomy is a daily procedure for the general surgeon and its main complication is the formation of hernias.
    Objective: To determine if the suture length to wound length ratio 4:1 for wall closure decreases the incidence of hernia.
    Material and methods: Data from patients (n = 86) in whom abdominal wall closure was performed from August 2017 to January 2018 were prospectively reviewed. Patients who could not undergo adequate follow-up, those managed with open abdomen, or those with use of non-absorbable suture materials were excluded. 2 groups were formed: in one, the suture length to wound length ratio 4:1 technique was used as wall closure, and in the other it was used conventional suture; the length of the wound-suture length was measured, and the follow-up was post-surgical. For statistical analysis it was used descriptive statistics and inferential statistics (chi-squared and Mann-Withney's U).
    Results: The 2 groups had similar characteristics in all the inclusion criteria. There was a statistically significant difference in dehiscence and hernias. For both complications, the 4:1 suture is a protective factor. For the first it was obtained: p = 0.000, relative risk (RR) 0.114 with 95% confidence interval (95% CI) 0.030-0.437, and for the second, p = 0.000, RR .091, 95% CI 0.027-0.437.
    Conclusions: Abdominal wall closure using 4:1 suture/wound length was shown to decrease the incidence of hernia.

    Abstract Introducción La enfermedad por coronavirus (COVID-19) es altamente contagiosa y las medidas de confinamiento dinámico han demostrado que reducen significativamente el número de contagios, sin embargo, pueden alterar la disponibilidad de alimentos afectando la adherencia a la dieta libre de gluten (DLG) y la calidad de vida (CV) en la enfermedad celiaca (EC). El objetivo de este estudio fue evaluar los factores que limitan, la adherencia a la dieta libre de gluten y la calidad de vida en personas con enfermedad celiaca en periodo de pandemia por COVID-19. Métodos Se aplicaron encuestas on-line respecto a adherencia a la DLG, CV y acerca de los factores que han generado dificultad para llevar una DLG en este escenario. Resultados Se analizaron 216 encuestas de enfermos celiacos, mayores de 15 años, de los cuales un 91% eran mujeres con un promedio de edad de 36 + 10,7 años y con 5,8 + 6,0 años de enfermedad. El 56,48% tenía una excelente adherencia a la DLG y un 43,52% una buena CV. El costo elevado de los alimentos sin gluten fue la pregunta con mayor porcentaje de respuesta, asociándose con regular y mala adherencia a la DLG (valor p=0,001) y con pobre CV (valor p=0,023). Conclusión En periodo de pandemia por COVID-19, el costo de los alimentos se asocia con adherencia regular y mala a la DLG y con pobre CV.

    Title translation Diagnosis and management of eosinophilic esophagitis.
    Abstract Eosinophilic esophagitis (EoE) is a chronic, immune-mediated disease, induced by food allergens, clinically characterized by symptoms of esophageal dysfunction. Pathologically there is a predominant eosinophilic inflammation. This disease is relatively new, and its definitions have evolved over time. Its prevalence and incidence are increasing and causes clinical problems both in children and adults. Its symptoms include food impaction, dysphagia, symptoms that resemble gastroesophageal reflux, abdominal pain, and vomiting. It can also have extra-digestive symptoms such as rhinosinusitis, chronic cough, recurrent croup and hoarseness. EoE can be associated with other atopic conditions, such as asthma, eczema and food allergies. The diagnosis is made by the analysis of endoscopic biopsies (> 15 eosinophils per high power field). Proton pump inhibitors (PPIs) are currently accepted as a treatment for EoE. The clinical and pathological improvement with the use PPIs ceased to be a criterion to define Esophageal eosinophilia responsive to PPIs as a differential diagnosis, since this condition is currently considered within the EoE spectrum. There are three main treatment approaches for EoE: diet, drugs and dilation. Its diagnosis and early treatment are key to avoid or delay its complications, such as stenosis and severe esophageal dysfunction.
