A cross-sectional descriptive correlational field research was conducted in order to determine the nutritional status, consumption of milk and serum levels of calcium, phosphorus, and alkaline phosphatase in students of 1st, 3rd and 5th grades of the "Rafael Antonio Gonzalez" school in Mesa Bolívar in 2007. The population consisted of 171 students. We determined the sample with a simple random stratified method, yielding 47% of school enrollment, corresponding to 80 children distributed by grade: 21 children in 1st, 28 in 3rd, 31 in 5th, aged 6 to 12 years old. The amount and frequency of consumption of dairy products, with an "ad hoc" questionnaire designed containing 10 items related to the frequency of consumption, quantity and type of dairy product. Nutritional assessment was carried out by means of the combination of indicators (weight for height and height for age) using the tables of evaluation of the World Health Organization. Values were determined in serum calcium, phosphorus and alkaline phosphatase. The students had 32,6% of malnutrition, both boys (6-10 years and 11-12 years) and girls (8-12 years) had an adequate percentage of low calcium daily intake(77.16%, 28. 57% and 38.96%, respectively) and 60% had hypocalcemia. There is statistical significance between serum calcium and phosphorus with an average daily intake of calcium (p 0.05 and p 0.04). There was no statistically significant relationship between dairy products consumption and nutritional status of schoolchildren. The nutritional status of schoolchildren does not depend on daily consumption of dairy products, however, that consumption does affect serum calcium and phosphorus. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

The prevalence of anemia in pregnant women and his association with foods intake, nutritional state and socio-economic variables has been analyzed. The sample was about 299 women that assist to a prenatal consultation in the health center Libertador Municipality, State of Merida 2009, in ages between 13 and 45 years. The obtained data was: haemoglobin and haematocrit of the three pregnancy quarters, parity, instruction level, occupation, incomes and foods expenditure. It was applyed a survey of "foods intake frequency" and it was determined Alimentary Insecurity Risk (RIA) and the IMC to the knowledge their nutritional state. 25, 75% of the women are anemics with values of HB< of 10.9 mg/dL, predominant in the ages of 13 and 30 years (21,07%), with an statistic significance between the parity and the anemia presence, a high Risk of Alimentari Insecurity (RIA) and a predominance of overweight in all the studied group (IMC: With anemia 27,44 ± 4,57 and with no presence of anemia 28,25 ± 6,25). The anaemic women consumed milk, cheese and chicken, fruits like papaya and orange, corn arepas, coffee, tea and sodas; It wasn't present consume of vegetables like broccoli, cauliflower and chard. The no-anemic women consumed yogurt, fish, liver, wheat bread; it wasn't consume of coffee, tea and sodas. It was found an statistic significance between the consume of cauliflower and chard in the no-anemic women and orange, milk and tea in the anemic ones (p < 0,05). [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

The present study, was based on the design and validation of an instrument to determine the managemental profile of the Dietician. The instrument applied was the GERSAL, (Management in Health), with 6 managemental dimensions: personal resources or abilities,leadership, personal performance while working in teams, managemental and organizational culture, professional improvement, and professional performance, to 50 dieticians of 5 public Institutions of the State, from March to May 2007. GERSAL, was tested using factorial analysis of main components and Varimax Rotation. These demonstrated to be high and significant, Cronbach (0.92), two halves (0.75), Guttman (0.85) and Spearman Brown (0.86). The factorial analysis demonstrated the existence of 6 present managemental dimensions. The greater score in the total of the scale, was for the dieticians of the University of the Andes (ULA), presenting the highest scores in the dimensions of personal development, managemental culture and personal development while working in teams. Those of the Instituto Autónomo de Alimentación y el Instituto Nacional de Nutrición (Independent Institute of Feeding and the National Institute of Nutrition), obtained high scores in professional improvement, managemental culture and personal resources, as well as all members of the Ministry of Education in the dimension of leadership. The behavior of GERSAL revealed that men present higher personal scores in resources and abilities than women. It was demonstrated that GERSAL is a useful and reliable measuring instrument of easy application, quantification and interpretation and it is possible to apply to similar samples in the area of health.
