Pylephlebitis is a rare but serious complication, associated with risks such as liver abscesses, sepsis, and acute liver failure that results in post-appendectomy portal vein thrombosis. Therefore, the objective of the study was to evaluate the effectiveness of care and management protocols for post-appendectomy pylephlebitis, in order to identify the best clinical practices and improve patient care. A systematic review of scientific literature was carried out, applying non-probabilistic convenience sampling 40 scientific works published between 2018 and 2023 were selected, using databases such as PubMed/Medline, Elsevier Scopus, Science Direct, and Taylor & Francis. The results revealed that post-appendectomy pylephlebitis has a low incidence, predominantly affecting men, with symptoms such as fever and abdominal pain. The most common causes are diverticulitis and acute appendicitis. The preferred treatment includes broad-spectrum antibiotics and, in some cases, anticoagulants.

Currently, the development of a city brand represents a key strategy for governments interested in boosting tourism within their borders. However, improper use of this resource can be counterproductive. The purpose of this study is to determine the criteria for assessing the effectiveness of the city brand and its tourist appeal, applying the Anholt Hexagon model. A mixed-methodological approach was adopted, analyzing the six dimensions of the model as a theoretical framework, and complementing it with a quantitative study based on surveys about the perception of tourists, both local and international, with a sample of 384 participants. The research aimed to establish a relationship between the hypothetical factors and each of the evaluated dimensions (presence, pulse, place, people, potential, and prerequisites) to identify the key elements for the success of a city brand, such as its architecture, climate, natural reserves, and promotional strategies. It is concluded that the effective development of a city brand requires careful consideration of these factors to enhance tourist retention and complement the sustainable development of the city of Ambato.
