    El trabajo de investigación bibliográfica titulada “Planificación Estratégica y el Presupuesto Institucional en la Municipalidad Distrital de Morales, 2021, responde a un diseño descriptivo, empleando la técnica de la revisión bibliográfica, y como métodos el explicativo y deductivo, teniendo como escenario de análisis la Municipalidad Distrital de Morales, provincia y región San Martín, Perú; donde los resultados son presentados de forma descriptiva empleando una matriz de registro. Se concluye que Los procesos de planificación a nivel municipal durante los últimos años ha tenido un fuerte involucramiento de la ciudadanía, plasmando el enfoque de desarrollo que quieren para el ámbito jurisdiccional donde radican, sin embargo, este esfuerzo muchas veces termina siendo echado a la borda por decisiones e injerencias de orden político y no respecto a los acuerdos tomados. La incorporación del enfoque de resultados en el presupuesto institucional de las municipalidades ha permitido mejorar la asignación de recursos, alineados a principios como el cierre de brechas o el cumplimiento de una meta asociada a un programa presupuestal, aun cuando todavía queda un largo camino por recorrer para llegar a estándares adecuados.The bibliographic research work entitled "Management Strategy" Closing Gaps "to improve the Strategic Planning and Institutional Budget of the District Municipality of Morales, 2020", responds to a descriptive design, using the technique of bibliographic review, and as the explanatory and deductive methods, taking as the scenario of analysis the District Municipality of Morales, San Martín province and region, Peru; where the results are presented in a descriptive way using a registration matrix. It is concluded that the planning processes at the municipal level in recent years have had a strong involvement of citizens, shaping the development approach they want for the jurisdictional area where they reside, however this effort often ends up being jettisoned by decisions and interference of a political nature and not respecting the agreements made. The incorporation of the results approach in the institutional budget of the municipalities has made it possible to improve the allocation of resources, aligned with principles such as closing gaps or meeting a goal associated with a budget program, even though there is still a long way to go. to reach adequate standard

    Observed Reductions in Schistosoma mansoni Transmission from Large-Scale Administration of Praziquantel in Uganda: A Mathematical Modelling Study

    To date schistosomiasis control programmes based on chemotherapy have largely aimed at controlling morbidity in treated individuals rather than at suppressing transmission. In this study, a mathematical modelling approach was used to estimate reductions in the rate of Schistosoma mansoni reinfection following annual mass drug administration (MDA) with praziquantel in Uganda over four years (2003-2006). In doing this we aim to elucidate the benefits of MDA in reducing community transmission.Age-structured models were fitted to a longitudinal cohort followed up across successive rounds of annual treatment for four years (Baseline: 2003, TREATMENT: 2004-2006; n = 1,764). Instead of modelling contamination, infection and immunity processes separately, these functions were combined in order to estimate a composite force of infection (FOI), i.e., the rate of parasite acquisition by hosts.MDA achieved substantial and statistically significant reductions in the FOI following one round of treatment in areas of low baseline infection intensity, and following two rounds in areas with high and medium intensities. In all areas, the FOI remained suppressed following a third round of treatment.This study represents one of the first attempts to monitor reductions in the FOI within a large-scale MDA schistosomiasis morbidity control programme in sub-Saharan Africa. The results indicate that the Schistosomiasis Control Initiative, as a model for other MDA programmes, is likely exerting a significant ancillary impact on reducing transmission within the community, and may provide health benefits to those who do not receive treatment. The results obtained will have implications for evaluating the cost-effectiveness of schistosomiasis control programmes and the design of monitoring and evaluation approaches in general

    Hadronic production of bottom-squark pairs with electroweak contributions

    We present the complete computation of the tree-level and the next-to-leading order electroweak contributions to bottom-squark pair production at the LHC. The computation is performed within the minimal supersymmetric extension of the Standard Model. We discuss the numerical impact of these contributions in several supersymmetric scenarios.Comment: 33 pages, v2: preprint numbers correcte
