  • Nicaragua 2017
    HI – Federal Information –Nicaragua Country card – 2017 09 EN Nicaragua 2017 MANDATE Since 1997, HI has developed and strengthened the technical skills of partner organisations working in the field of disability in Nicaragua. After working in the country for 15 years, HI decided that the conditions were right to transfer the overall management of the project to its local NGO partner, Visíon Inclusiva, and to phase out its actions in Nicaragua. Visíon Inclusiva has been working in the field of disability since 2011. HI continues to support the organisation’s projects and to strengthen its autonomy. SITUATION Nicaragua is one of the poorest countries in Latin America and the Caribbean (125/188 HDI1). This poverty has caused serious health problems - cancer, cardiovascular problems, diabetes and high blood pressure - which are the leading causes of morbidity2 and mortality3 among adults in the country. An estimated 9% of people have diabetes and 25% have high blood pressure. Approximately 52% of people with diabetes also have high blood pressure4, For 2017 the ninth / fourteenth line of action of the Ministry of Health are chronic diseases. INITIAL ACTIONS Since 2004, HI and NGO Visíon Inclusiva (VI) have worked together, in partnership with decentralized structures of the Ministry of Health, clubs for people with diabetes and hypertension, and the “Fe y Esperanza” association of diabetics and hypertensive people (ADHFE)5 in the departments of Estelí and Masaya, where the incidence of disability is particularly high, and where chronic diseases such as diabetes, cardiovascular disease, high blood pressure and arthritis are extremely high. In 2016 VI has started a new project to prevent diabetes in partnership with two universities in the department of León.

Dronen, Jr. Committee Members, Thomas M. Craig Jimmy K. Olson Markus J. Peterson Head of Department, Thomas E. Lacher, Jr. August 2008 Major Subject: Wildlife and Fisheries Sciences iii ABSTRACT Exploration of Potential Reservoir Hosts and Vectors of Leishmania in Nicaragua. (August 2008) Russell Wayne Raymond, B.S., University of the Incarnate Word; M.S., University of the Incarnate Word Chair of Advisory Committee: Dr. Norman O. Dronen, Jr. Leishmaniasis is caused by infection with protozoan parasites within the genus Leishmania and, in the New World, is transmitted by the bites of female sand flies within the genus Lutzomyia. The occurrence of leishmaniasis in rodent species, the geographic distribution of sand fly species in Nicaragua, and environmental factors associated with the distribution of human cases of typical cutaneous leishmaniasis were investigated. Three hundred ninety five rodents representing 17 species were collected from 13 localities from August 2001–March 2006 and screened for Leishmania infections. One Heteromys desmarestianus and one Peromyscus mexicanus were found to be positive for leishmanial infections by PCR.
