    Several studies have been carried out which mainly focus on the analysis of the lipid profile in vegetarians and nonvegetarians. However, few studies have been undertaken in this population oriented to quality of life and health. This study aimed to compare health-related quality of life, blood pressure, and biochemical and anthropometric profile in vegetarians and nonvegetarians. The study included 149 participants out of an initial sample of 162: 62 vegetarians and 87 nonvegetarians. Health-related quality of life was assessed with the SF-12 Health Questionnaire version 2 and was related with the lipid profile, glucose, blood pressure, anthropometric measures, and sociodemographic characteristics. Vegetarians presented better Body Mass Index (BMI) and waist circumference (WC), as well as higher LDL levels. No significant differences in HDL and TG concentrations were found. Serum glucose concentrations were significantly lower among vegetarians. Nonvegetarian males had higher diastolic pressure levels. Vegetarian women had significantly higher levels of systolic pressure. As for the physical health and mental health components of quality of life, no significant differences were found in vegetarian and nonvegetarian women and men. In conclusion, vegetarians presented a better anthropometric profile, lower glycaemia, and higher LDL levels but no significant differences in health-related quality of life compared with nonvegetarians.

    Background: The pandemic has drastically impacted lifestyles, including the frequency, duration, and intensity of physical activity, which, in turn, leads to negative effects on job burnout among healthcare workers. Objective: This study evaluated the association between the level of physical activity and job burnout in a sample of health professionals during health emergency. Methods: In this cross-sectional study, 300 workers working in a public hospital, located in the city of Rioja, Department of San Martin, Peru, were considered. Data were collected through an online and face-to-face survey. Job burnout was assessed using a validated questionnaire adapted to the Peruvian population and physical activity was assessed based on a single item. Crude and adjusted linear regression models were created to assess the association between the frequency of physical activity performed weekly and the level of job burnout. Results: In the crude models, it was observed that participants who performed physical activity 1-2 times, 3-4 times, or more than 4 times per week had, respectively, 6.29 (95% CI, 11.00-1.59), 14.28 (95% CI, 21.70-6.85), and 14.95 (95% CI, 25.17-4.72) lower job burnout points compared to those who never performed physical activity. In the model adjusted for confounding variables, the association of this result was maintained, showing a dose-response effect. Conclusion: These findings suggest the need for the implementation of health education programs that include physical activity to minimize the negative effects of job burnout and ensure better medical care by health professionals for the benefit of patients.

    INTRODUCTION: Considering socioeconomic aspects, this study aimed to analyze the relationship between quality of life and family health in residents of a rural area of Peru. METHODS: In a cross-sectional design study, the sample comprised 288 residents chosen through simple random probabilistic sampling. It included male and female Peruvian residents aged 18 years or more who lived with their families and agreed to participate in the study. The SALUFAM (family health) scale and the Quality of Life Index are used for data collection. RESULTS: The results revealed that residents with basic education (adjusted odds ratio (aOR): 2.44, 95%CI: 1.33-4.49, p=0.004) who did not have a job (aOR: 1.66, 95%CI: 1.23-2.23, p=0.001) and who received an income less than the minimum wage (aOR: 1.45, 95%CI: 1.03-2.03, p=0.03) presented a greater probability of perceiving inadequate quality of life. Furthermore, residents with more vulnerable family health (aOR: 1.79, 95%CI: 1.34-2.38, p=0.000) were more likely to perceive an inadequate of their quality of life than those in families with less vulnerability. CONCLUSION: Socioeconomic factors and vulnerability in family health are significantly associated with a worse quality of life in these rural communities.

    Research on spirituality has increased considerably in the last decade. This study analyzes the psychometric properties of the Daily Spiritual Experience Scale (DSES) in a Peruvian sample. The study had a cross-sectional design. The population was Peruvian adults with ages ranging between 18 and 70 years ( M = 30.60, SD = 11.22) recruited through nonprobabilistic sampling. The confirmatory factor analysis (CFA) was performed. Internal consistency was assessed by Cronbach’s alpha (α), McDonalds’ omega (ω), and H-coefficient ( H). The structure of 16 items was not confirmed. A 13-item DSES unidimensional model was suggested (χ 2 = 184.78, df = 65; confirmatory fit index [CFI] = 0.92, Tucker–Lewis index [TLI] = 0.91, root mean square error of approximation [RMSEA] = 0.08, standardized root mean square residuals [SRMR] = 0.04) and the DSES-6 model (χ 2 = 9.570, df = 9; CFI = 1.00, TLI = 1.00, RMSEA = 0.02, SRMR = 0.02) and its reliability had excellent values. Concurrent validity with measures of anxiety and depression were evidenced. The DSES-13 and DSES-6 versions are valid and reliable instruments to evaluate spiritual experiences in the Peruvian context.

    OBJECTIVE: The COVID-19 protective motivation scale (EMP-COVID-19) has been developed for the assessment of protective motivation. This study aims to examine the psychometric properties of the EMP-COVID-19 for its application in the Peruvian community. METHODS: This is an observational, cross-sectional, instrumental design study, 483 adults (≥18 years) participated in the study, in 2 samples of 81 and 402 participants from the different macro-regions of Peru through an online survey using non-probabilistic sampling. Content validation was performed through expert judgment. Exploratory factor analysis (EFA) to evaluate the factor model of the EMP-COVID-19 was performed with the first sample. The confirmatory factor analysis (CFA) to verify the goodness of fit of the analysis found in the EFA was performed with the second sample. The examination of convergent and discriminant validity included peer evaluations of each EMP-COVID-19 dimension. Finally, the reliability of the instrument was evaluated using Cronbach's Alpha coefficient. RESULTS: The 3-factor related model presents better fit indices (CFI = 0.99; TLI = 0.99; RMSEA = 0.077 [90% CI 0.069-0.085]) versus a unidimensional model (CFI = 0.91; TLI = 0.90; RMSEA = 0.206 [90% CI 0.199-0.213]). The scale present convergent and discriminant validity in all the dimensions Threat Appraisal (AVE = .57), Coping Appraisal (AVE = .81), and Response Costs (AVE = .67). The Coping Appraisal (α = .97; ω = .97), Threat Appraisal (α = .88; ω = .74), and Response Costs (α = .80; ω = .76) dimensions were also found to have adequate reliability indices. CONCLUSIONS: The EMP-COVID-19 scale demonstrated adequate reliability and validity based on internal structure in the study sample.

    <ns4:p> <ns4:bold>Background:</ns4:bold> The measures taken to contain the COVID-19 pandemic, led to significant changes in university education, resulting in the new normal standard of virtual teaching in many undergraduate medical schools worldwide. Therefore, the aim of this paper was to determine the factors related to academic satisfaction with virtual teaching in medical students during the COVID-19 pandemic. </ns4:p> <ns4:p> <ns4:bold>Methods:</ns4:bold> A cross-sectional-analytical study was conducted on medical students at a private university in Peru, through self-reported questionnaires divided into sociodemographic data and variables of interest that could influence academic satisfaction during the pandemic. To evaluate possible factors related to academic satisfaction, stepwise regression models were performed for both sexes. </ns4:p> <ns4:p> <ns4:bold>Results:</ns4:bold> In total, data from 310 medical students, 117 males and 193 females, were analyzed. Academic satisfaction reached a score of 11.2 ± 2.9, which was similar in both sexes. The best regression model for males (AIC: 544.32; RMSE: 2.42; R <ns4:sup>2</ns4:sup> : 0.30) showed that adaptation to university life (favorable change) and depression (unfavorable change) explained 30% of changes in students' academic satisfaction. While in females (AIC: 907.59; RMSE: 2.49; R <ns4:sup>2</ns4:sup> : 0.22) the model integrated favorable factors such as adjustment to college life and anxiety; while depression and poor sleep quality were unfavorable factors. </ns4:p> <ns4:p> <ns4:bold>Conclusion:</ns4:bold> Factors that contributed to academic satisfaction in medical students were determined in this study, which differed by gender. Thus, it is important to take into account the particularities of male and female medical students in order to improve their academic satisfaction during their university careers. </ns4:p>

    Background: Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus (T2DM) is a growing global health concern, closely linked to modifiable lifestyle factors. Emerging evidence suggests that religious principles can shape behaviors that promote physical and mental well-being. Objective: This study explores how adherence to a lifestyle rooted in Seventh-Day Adventist beliefs may influence the risk of developing T2DM. Methods: This study is of a non-experimental quantitative design with a cross-sectional and explanatory scope. The sample consisted of 303 participants (adults who had been active Seventh-Day Adventist Church, SDA, members for the past 3 years), selected by non-probabilistic convenience sampling. Data were collected using the Adventist Lifestyle questionnaire (eight dimensions) and the FINDRISC scale. The non-parametric statistics, Rho Spearman, and ordinal logistic regression analysis were used. Results: The results showed that lifestyle levels based on religious principles significantly predicted the risk of developing T2DM (X2 = 100.34, p &lt; 0.05). The model explained approximately 31% of the variance in T2DM risk (R2 = 0.31), indicating a moderate association between lifestyle and risk. Specifically, individuals with lower (less healthy) lifestyle scores had a significantly higher likelihood of being classified in higher risk categories for T2DM. It was also observed that there is a significant relationship between the risk of developing T2DM and the following dimensions: Rest (rho = −0.16, p &lt; 0.05), exercise (rho = −0.13, p &lt; 0.05), temperance (rho = −0.19, p &lt; 0.05), nutrition (rho = −0.66, p &lt; 0.05) and spirituality (rho = −0.57, p &lt; 0.05). Conclusions: A healthier lifestyle promoted by religious principles, such as the SDA, reduces the risk of developing T2DM. A stronger correlation was perceived between nutrition and spirituality since these practices are related to a low risk of developing the disease.
