    (Universidad Nacional de la Amazonía Peruana, 2025) Tuesta Chuquipiondo, Carlos Leandro; Salazar Becerril, Nelly
    The purpose of the study was to determine the influence between business management and the competitiveness of tourist restaurants in the Loreto region, 2023. The research was of an applied type, with a non-experimental and simple correlational design and finally a quantitative approach was used. The study subjects were 150 restaurants in the Loreto region. The instrument was applied as a technique and the data were collected through a content validated questionnaire with a Cronbach's Alpha coefficient of 0.875. Subsequently, the data were analyzed using the statistical software SPSS version 25. The findings showed a high correlation greater than 70% between the variables studied. Which concluded that, if there is a significant influence between business management and the competitiveness of tourist restaurants in the Loreto region, reflected in a Spearman correlation coefficient of 0.785, which indicates a high positive correlation, with a level of statistical significance of p<0.05.

    Desprotección jurídica y falta de reparación integral en víctimas de delitos sexuales, en los procesos penales de Maynas, 2022–2023
    (Universidad Nacional de la Amazonía Peruana, 2025) Rojas Cancino, Zulita Isabel; Perez Serrantes, Cinthia Katherine; Bellido Salazar, Edwin
    This study analyzes whether criminal proceedings conducted in the province of Maynas during 2022 and 2023 guaranteed comprehensive reparation for victims of sexual abuse through psychological treatment. The main objective was to determine whether such proceedings ensured reparation not only in economic terms but also through measures aimed at restoring the victims’ emotional well-being. The research was basic, socio-legal in nature, descriptive–correlational in level, with a non-experimental design and a quantitative approach, since it combined the analysis of legal norms and case law with statistical measurement of variables in order to test the hypothesis. The results show that comprehensive reparation was not effectively guaranteed, as no psychological treatment was ordered for the victims. Instead, reparation was limited to economic compensation, often with symbolic or insufficient amounts ranging from S/ 1,000.00 to S/ 3,000.00, even in cases involving minors who had suffered sexual abuse. In contrast, in some proceedings, the courts ordered that offenders receive therapeutic treatment aimed at facilitating their social reintegration, which reveals an unequal application of reparative measures and a clear lack of protection for the victims. It is concluded that the comprehensive reparation recognized by law was not effectively applied in practice, leaving sexually abused individuals without the psychological support necessary for their recovery and with inadequate economic compensation compared to the seriousness of the harm suffered.

    Cuantificación de compuestos fenólicos y actividad antiinflamatoria de extractos de Phlebodium decumanum
    (Universidad Nacional de la Amazonía Peruana, 2025) Tuesta Soto, Cony Kirlyn; Ramirez Trauco, Juana Emilce; De la Cruz Flores, Mario Javier; García de Sotero, Dora Enith
    Medicinal plants represent an important source of bioactive compounds with therapeutic potential, including phenolics, which are well known for their antioxidant and anti-inflammatory properties. Phlebodium decumanum, an epiphytic fern native to the tropical regions of the Americas, has been traditionally used in folk medicine for its presumed health benefits; however, scientific evidence supporting its pharmacological properties remains limited. This study aimed to quantify the total phenolic content and evaluate the anti-inflammatory activity of extracts obtained from different organs of P. decumanum. Ethanolic extractions were performed, and the content of phenolic compounds, flavonoids, anthocyanins, and catechins was determined using UV-Vis spectrophotometric techniques. Anti-inflammatory activity was assessed through a heat-induced hemolysis inhibition assay in human erythrocytes, using concentrations of 10, 100, and 1000 µg/mL. The results indicate that the different parts of P. decumanum exhibit significant variations in the concentrations of phenolic compounds, flavonoids, anthocyanins, and catechins. The stem extract showed the highest percentage of inhibition at a concentration of 1000 µg/mL, whereas the rhizome extract demonstrated a significant increase in activity at 10 and 100 µg/mL. However, all groups exhibited IC₅₀ values greater than 1000 µg/mL. In conclusion, the various parts of P. decumanum present distinct phytochemical profiles and do not show anti-inflammatory activity at the concentrations evaluated.

    Trazabilidad de la producción y composición química del aceite de Aniba rosaeodora Ducke “Palo de Rosa” procedente de plantaciones de la localidad de Tamshiyacu Loreto Perú
    (Universidad Nacional de la Amazonía Peruana, 2025) Soplin Trigoso, Hilda; García de Sotero, Dora Enith
    In order to obtain information on the journey of the forest species “rosewood” from established plantations, transportation, primary processing and storage to national and international end users. Based on this information, we can verify that the raw material comes from legal sources for the proper sustainable use of forest resources. The execution of this work is proposed. The purpose is to define the ability to follow the origin, production and chemical composition of the essential oil from Aniba rosodora Ducke, known as “rosewood”. The activities in the field were carried out in crops located in the Tamshiyacu area, while the processing of the raw material to extract the essential oil took place in the initial processing plant of Essential Oils Peru Sac, located in the city of Iquitos, in the Loreto region, Peru. The information on the entire administrative process to obtain plantation records and oil analysis were also obtained from the same company. The extraction process of the raw material was established in situ, which includes stem, branches, twigs and leaves, to later establish the weight ratio between them, constituting 65.1% stem, 14.3% primary branches, 13.4% twigs and 7.2% leaves, which makes it different from other forest species since the essential oil is obtained from all of these. The oil yield is established based on the parts used, achieving 2% of the leaves, 2.3% of the secondary branches and 3.1% of the stem and primary branches. The quality of the essential oil depends on one of the main components, linalool, whose percentage according to the analysis sources is between 78.21 and 83.26%, whose values are above the minimum required by importing companies.

    Introduction: Tuberculosis is an infectious disease caused by Mycobacterium tuberculosis, which mainly affects the lungs, although it can compromise other organs. Its multidrug-resistant (MDR) form, characterized by resistance to isoniazid and rifampicin, and its extensively drug-resistant (XDR) form, which exhibits additional resistance to fluoroquinolones and second-line drugs, represent a growing threat to public health. These variants make treatment difficult and increase morbidity and mortality, especially in the pediatric population of vulnerable regions such as the Peruvian Amazon, where socioeconomic and geographic factors limit timely access to diagnosis and treatment. Objective: To determine the geographical distribution and factors associated with MDR and XDR tuberculosis in the pediatric population of a hospital in the Peruvian Amazon, 2024-2025. Method: The study was designed as observational, analytical, prospective, and cross-sectional. Population: The target population consisted of 35 pediatric patients with MDR and XDR tuberculosis and a sample of 28 pediatric patients with MDR and XDR tuberculosis from a hospital in the Peruvian Amazon, 2024-2025. Results: Data collection was planned using structured forms applied to hospitalized patients and those under observation in the pediatric ward, with prior authorization from the Ethics Committee. The data would have been organized in an Excel database and processed using SPSS v26.0 software. The statistical analysis would include descriptive measures and the application of Fisher's exact test to evaluate associations between qualitative variables, considering a p value < 0.05 as significant. Conclusion: MDR and XDR tuberculosis in the pediatric population is a complex expression of the disease, where bacterial resistance to essential drugs prolongs the duration of treatment and hinders its effectiveness, especially in contexts with geographical barriers and limited access to specialized services.
