    FRONTERAS DE CARNE Y HUESO: BUSCANDO EL LUGAR DONDE CRECER
    (Universidade Federal de Mato Grosso do Sul, 2024) Héctor Acebo Bello; Jorge Carlos Ruiz De la Quintana
    Este estudio utilizó entrevistas semiestructuradas para explorar las experiencias de jóvenes provenientes de Brasil, Perú, Paraguay, Argentina y Chile que migraron a Bolivia, así como de jóvenes bolivianos que se trasladaron a los mencionados países. Los resultados muestran que, en un contexto de sincretismo, los migrantes incorporan elementos de la cultura local (modismos, formas de protesta social, etcétera) sin renegar de su propia matriz cultural. Ese hibridismo contribuye a la diversidad y al tejido social en países fronterizos. En su reverso, los resultados también reflejan episodios de xenofobia que afectan a la integración y al bienestar emocional de los extranjeros.

    Identificación del Aedes aegypti en la zona sud de Cochabamba, Bolivia
    (2024) Rommer Alex Ortega Martínez; Jorge Carlos Ruiz De la Quintana; Gloria Blanco
    Objective. To determine the presence of Aedes aegypti in the southern region of Cochabamba(Bolivia) to establish an updated record. Methods. A descriptive, prospective, and ecological study was conducted in three districts (6, 8, and 9) of the southern region of the Cochabamba Department, Bolivia, located above 2500 meters above sea level. Ovitraps were used for vector identification and subsequent egg hatching. Results. One larva of Ae. aegypti and one of Culex were identifed in district 6. In district 8, seven Ae. aegypti larvae and nine adults were found, along with two pupae and fve eggs in different Territorial Base Organizations (OTBs). Additionally, 56 Culex eggs were identifed in districts 8 and 9, 93 Culex larvae in district 8, and more than 40 Culex adults in the same district. The dendrogram revealed two clusters: one comprising all life stages of both species and another containing only Culex eggs. Conclusions. It is essential to implement vector elimination programs to prevent further infections caused by this arbovirus, particularly Ae. aegypti.
