Las enfermedades causadas por virus Hantaan eran llamadas Fiebre Hemorrágica con Síndrome Renal. En 1993 se diagnosticaron en el Suroeste de EEUU un brote causado por un Hantavirus pero con otras características, definiéndoselo como Síndrome Pulmonar por Hantavirus. Este síndrome se ha producido en distintas regiones de Argentina. Uno de los reservorios involucrados en el brote del Sur del país, se encuentra en la Provincia de La Pampa. En esta primera etapa se efectuaron capturas, se sexaron, midieron e identificaron roedores, encontrándose tres individuos de la especie Calomys laucha , supuesto reservorio del brote en Paraguay. También se enviaron muestras al ANLIS-Malbrán, resultando negativas a hanta virus. Se continuará con las actividades de trampeo en el transcurso del presente año

The Sierra Grande area, in the province of Río Negro, Argentina, has been particularly affected by trichinelosis, which remains locally endemic. In the year 2000 a descriptive study was designs to recognize the natural history of trichinosis in the area and over the period 2001-2007 a control program was carried out with identification of pigs, initial detection of infected pigs using serology (screening using ELISA and confirmation using Western blot). Initial results (2001/02) showed that out of 179 pigs studied, 36 (20,1%) were positive. In 2007 169 pigs were studied from the 14 existing breeding farms and only 2 (0,7%) were found to be positive. No cases of trichinella wereproduced in humans during the working period

The Echinococcus granulosus is the agent that causes the classical hydatidosis or cystic echinococcosis. The most enlarged cycle in South America is the sheep-dog cycle, it offers excellent conditions for the development of the parasite. The province of La Pampa shows an endemic presence with notification of human cases and infected dogs. The distribution and prevalence of the disease in the Department of Maracó, La Pampa , Argentina was evaluated during the years 1996 and 1997.Dogs of 36 fanns that had ovines, were dosed with arecoline hydrobromide at doses of 3.5 mg/kg , the result obtained was that 75% were positive to Tennia spp. and 8% to Echinococcus granulosus. In total 137 dogs were evaluated , being from 3 to 4 per fann, from wich 58% were positive to Tennia spp. and 2,6% to Echinococcus granulosus. Infonnation from 187.790 slaughtered cattle was obtained between the years 1996 and 1997 in two slaughterhouses in the province of La Pampa. Analysis from the clinical records indicated 11 human cases that appeared during the period 96/97 (annual incidence rate of 6.79 x 100.000 inhabitants). As a concequence, it is of sanitary nterest to enlarge the investigations in other districts of the province of La Pampa with the aim of delimiting the endemic distribution area within the province, and also organising epidemiologic watchfulness systems of the illnes

Networking is an articulation and exchange strategy between institutions that decide to bond and associate efforts, experiences and knowledge to reach common objectives. The participation of teachers of the School of Veterinary Sciences of the National University of La Pampa in networks with representatives of the health and education sectors, municipal organisms and NGOs, among others, allowed to generate different extension proposals based on health promotion. Dialogue, communication and construction spaces were created between the university and the community. The objective of this article is to describe linkage activities between the School above mentioned and the community through networking in health promotion. Fifty two meetings in different regions took place and fifty five community activities were organized, which included thirty eight workshops aimed at different actors of the educational community, elders, pregnant women, and public in general and seventeen training activities, seminars, informative talks, active waiting rooms and scientific-technological publication. Different didactic materials were elaborated. Through the socio-environmental problems detected, three research projects were designed. This type of proposals based on networking and health promotion offer an opportunity to higher level institutions to develop their social function. Furthermore, they help teaching, research and extension articulation
