Recientemente, Baños et al [1] publicaron en Educación
Médica la experiencia piloto del nuevo grado
conjunto de medicina de la Universitat Autònoma
de Barcelona y la Universitat Pompeu Fabra en
relación con la exposición precoz a la realidad sociosanitaria
de los estudiantes y su satisfacción.
Nuestra experiencia en la Escuela de Medicina de la
Facultad de Ciencias de la Salud de la Universidad
Peruana de Ciencias Aplicadas, en Lima, ratifica lo
planteado por los autores.
Desde hace cuatro años, como parte del plan de
estudios, los alumnos del primer semestre visitan
los diferentes centros asistenciales correspondientes
al campo clínico de nuestra escuela. Estas visitas
están dirigidas principalmente a que los alumnos
logren cuatro objetivos: conocer el sistema de salud
peruano, sensibilizar al alumno con la realidad del
paciente como persona que sufre, iniciar el desarrollo
de la competencia de comunicación y conocer
los determinantes de la salud en nuestro medio.

Importancia de la enseñanza de la medicina basada en evidencias.
Sr. Editor:
Tal como se han reseñado en este espacio otros
eventos de educación médica continua (1) y se ha
resaltado la importancia de nuevos aspectos útiles
para el médico en el campo de la atención individual y
colectiva (2), consideramos pertinente brindar algunos
alcances acerca de la Medicina Basada en Evidencias
(MBE) en virtud a su relevancia como instrumento
valioso en el quehacer profesional. Recientemente,
la Facultad de Medicina de la Universidad Central de
Venezuela (UCV) tuvo la oportunidad de organizar
el Simposio Internacional Principios Básicos de
la Medicina Basada en Evidencias (SIPBMBE),
desarrollado el 12 de febrero de 2010 en el Auditorio
Lorenzo Campins y Ballester, del Decanato de
Medicina de la Ciudad Universitaria, desarrollado
por el Departamento de Medicina Preventiva y Social
de la Escuela de Medicina Luis Razetti de esa casa
superior de estudios.

Bibliometrics: The Leiden Manifesto for research metrics
Data are increasingly used to govern science. Research evaluations that were once bespoke and performed by peers are now routine and reliant on metrics1. The problem is that evaluation is now led by the data rather than by judgement. Metrics have proliferated: usually well intentioned, not always well informed, often ill applied. We risk damaging the system with the very tools designed to improve it, as evaluation is increasingly implemented by organizations without knowledge of, or advice on, good practice and interpretation.
Before 2000, there was the Science Citation Index on CD-ROM from the Institute for Scientific Information (ISI), used by experts for specialist analyses. In 2002, Thomson Reuters launched an integrated web platform, making the Web of Science database widely accessible. Competing citation indices were created: Elsevier's Scopus (released in 2004) and Google Scholar (beta version released in 2004). Web-based tools to easily compare institutional research productivity and impact were introduced, such as InCites (using the Web of Science) and SciVal (using Scopus), as well as software to analyse individual citation profiles using Google Scholar (Publish or Perish, released in 2007).

Characteristics of gastroduodenal ulcers in patients with negative biopsies for Helicobacter pylori.
Objetives. To evaluate the clinical, epidemiological
and endoscopic characteristics of the Helicobacter pylori
(Hp) negative peptic ulcer disease. Methods. In this
cross sectional study we included 651 patients diagnosed
of peptic ulcer disease between January 2000 and
December 2005. The diagnosis of Hp infection was
established by histology. Clinical and epidemiological
characteristics of patients with and without Hp infection
were compared. Results. Males prevailed (69%).
Hp negative ulcers were older (57,73 +/- 19,44 years
old vs 50,26 +/- 18, 64 years old, P < 0.001). Clinical
characteristics did not differ among both groups. Duodenal
ulcer prevailed in Hp positive patients (56,5%)
and gastric ulcer in Hp negative patients (53,5%).
Multiple ulcers and intestinal metaplasia were more
frequently found in Hp negative cases [9.3% vs 4.5
% (P = 0,015) and 34.5% vs 22.1% (P = 0,001),
respectively]. Conclusion. Hp negative peptic ulcer disease
is found in older patients, with a higher frequency
of gastric ulcers, multiple lesions and intestinal metaplasia.

Low serological positivy in patients with histology compatible with celiac disease in Perú.
Objective: to study the frequency of positive serology for celiac
disease (CD) in patients with duodenal biopsies suggestive of
this disease. Material and methods: cross sectional study. We included
patients with duodenal biopsies histologically compatible with CD
and antigliadin, antiendomysial and IgA antitransglutaminase antibodies.
We defined a “case” of CD if there was a positive biopsy
and either antiendomisial or antitransglutaminase positive antibodies.
Results: thirty one patients were included in our study. Six
were antiendomysial positive and 5 antitransglutaminase positive
while the antigliadin was positive in 14 cases. Therefore, out of
31 patients only 10 had a serology compatible with CD and only
one had positive both antibodies, antiendomysial and antitransglutaminase.
Conclusions: a) we have found that most of the duodenal
biopsies compatible with CD are not diagnosed with positive serology;
and b) we found a low correlation between serological diagnostic
tests.
