RESUMO
Introduction: In the COVID-19 context, university teachers have had to face the most complex educational demands, psychosocial risks, and the anxiety of responding to limitations in terms of connectivity and fulfillment of academic objectives . To identify the levels of Burnout and anxiety in the COVID-19 context and determine how these levels are manifested in the participating teachers. Methods: This was an analytical non-experimental, cross-sectional study. The population was 150 teachers of the Human Medicine Program of the University of San Martín de Porres, Chiclayo, Peru, and the sample was 66 teachers. The survey consisted of three sections: 1. Informed consent, 2. Maslach's Burnout Inventory, 3. Beck's Anxiety Inventory. Data processing was performed using the SPSS V.27 statistical software and all citations and bibliographical references were processed using Mendeley Desktop 1.19.8. Results: In the variable burnout syndrome, 25% of the participants were in the high level downwards; they present anxiety in 30.30% of the total. It was found that 50% of teachers presented mild to moderate anxiety. Conclusions: the largest number of teachers surveyed present anxiety due to burnout syndrome in the COVID-19 context. Finally, it is found that there is a correlation between anxiety and the sociodemographic variables sex, age, and marital status.

Introduction: Dentistry should contribute to achieving healthy aging based on the identification of the well-being and oral health needs of the elderly. Objective: To evaluate the conditions of edentulism and frailty in a group of elderly people treated at the dental clinic of Universidad San Martín de Porres in Lambayeque, Peru, between the years 2016 and 2018. Material and Methods: An observational, descriptive, retrolective, and cross-sectional study was conducted. Two hundred and seven medical records that included an odontogram were randomly selected to identify cases of total or partial edentulism according to the Kennedy classification. The files were assessed with Fried's test to evaluate the conditions of frailty. The association between variables was estimated by means of a significance analysis using the Chi square test. Results: There was a statistically significant difference between edentulism in both jaws and conditions of frailty (p<0.05). An association of edentulism with physical inactivity and weakness was also demonstrated. Additionally, a statistically significant difference between degrees of edentulism was observed regarding poor diet (p<0.05). Conclusion: The absence of teeth in the elderly acts as a risk factor leading to negative changes in diet, weight, and physical activity. These changes may be associated with frailty, as masticatory insufficiency results in a poor diet and subsequent weakness.
Introducción: El aporte de la Odontología debe contribuir a lograr un envejecimiento saludable, basado en la identificación de las necesidades de bienestar y salud bucal de las personas mayores. Objetivo: Evaluar la condición de edentulismo y de fragilidad en un grupo de personas mayores atendidas en la Clínica Odontológica de la Universidad San Martín de Porres de Lambayeque, entre los años 2016 y 2018. Material y Métodos: Se diseñó un estudio observacional, descriptivo, retrolectivo y transversal, seleccionando de manera aleatoria 207 historias clínicas que incluyeron un odontograma para identificar casos de edentulismo total o parcial de acuerdo a la clasificación de Kennedy: mientras que para evaluar las condiciones de fragilidad fueron revisadas las fichas con el test de Fried. Diferencias entre variables fueron evaluadas con un análisis de significancia mediante la prueba Chi cuadrado. Resultado: Se mostró una diferencia estadísticamente significativa entre edentulismo en ambos maxilares y condiciones de fragilidad (p<0,05). Se evidenció además asociación de edentulismo con inactividad física y debilidad; observándose adicionalmente una diferencia estadísticamente significativa entre grados de edentulismo en relación a la mala alimentación (p<0,05). Conclusion: La ausencia de dientes en las personas mayores funge como un factor de riesgo que contribuye a cambios desfavorables en la dieta, el peso y la actividad física, mismos que se asocian con la fragilidad, donde la insuficiencia masticatoria puede conducir a una deficiente alimentación y la consecuente debilidad.
