    El desarrollo de este trabajo se realizó a partir de la aproximación al enfoque narrativo y análisis sobre relatos de vida de diferentes casos de personas que tuvieron que pasar por algún escenario de violencia. El desplazamiento tema abordado que tiene efectos devastadores, que no se limitan únicamente a los desplazados quienes huyen de su territorio, si no que por el contrario se ve reflejado en los núcleos familiares. El desplazamiento da origen a la persona desplazada a un sin número de problemática en la que se encuentran la pérdida de lugar, despojo y pérdida de identidad. Por tal motivo se aborda el caso de Gloria, donde se manifiesta ampliamente toda la problemática que tuvo que vivir a causa del conflicto armado y la manera como se ha constituido en un determinante y condicionante del desplazamiento individual, familiar y colectivo que deja a un vasto sector de la población en situaciones de vulnerabilidad en la medida en que esta mujer se ve obligada a sobrevivir junto con sus niñas, en unos espacios no aptos para hacer vida social o familiar, en esa medida, se ven deterioradas las condiciones de vida.The development of this work was made from the approach to the narrative approach and analysis of life stories of different cases of people who had to go through some violence scenario. The displaced issue addressed that has devastating effects, which are not limited to the displaced who flee their territory, but on the contrary it is reflected in the family nuclei. The displacement gives rise to the displaced person to a number of problems in which the loss of place, dispossession and loss of identity are found. For this reason the case of Gloria is addressed, where it is widely manifested all the problems that had to live because of the armed conflict and the way it has become a determinant and conditioner of individual, family and collective displacement that leaves a vast sector of the population in situations of vulnerability to the extent that this woman is forced to survive together with her girls, in spaces not suitable for social or family life, to that extent, living conditions are deteriorated

    La importancia de los ecosistemas de manglar es irrefutable por los innumerables beneficios que brindan en distintos ámbitos; sin embargo, pese al valor que se les atribuye, su tasa anual de deforestación en territorio mexicana es de aproximadamente 2.5%. En México, la extensión de manglares es de 764,486 hectáreas. Entre las especies que los conforman, se encuentra L. racemosa, una de las principales especies a nivel nacional. Las hojas son los órganos más sensibles de las plantas a la contaminación y sirven como indicadores de alteraciones a condiciones ambientales ya que refleja cambios en las características estomáticas lo cual es relevante por la importancia de los estomas en la homeostasis de las plantas. El objetivo de este estudio fue determinar macro- y micro-características foliares de plantas de L. racemosa en dos zonas del sitio Ramsar 1602, una al norte (deteriorada) y otra al sur (no deteriorada) del Río Tuxpan.   Se consideraron 12 individuos al azar de cada localidad para obtener material vegetal. El promedio del área de la hoja fue mayor en la Zona no deteriorada, caso contrario con los valores obtenidos para longitud, ancho, densidad e índice estomático, ya que éstas variables fueron mayores en la zona deteriorada

    El deterioro de los ecosistemas por los efectos negativos de la contaminación son preocupantes y evidentes, sin embargo cuando se trata del deterioro de los agroecosistemas la preocupación debe ser mayor y es imprescindible tomar la iniciativa para disminuir o por lo menos tratar de detener el deterioro de dichos ecosistemas. En el caso de un agroecosistemas específico, en los cafetales de Las Lomas, Municipio de Coatepec, Veracruz, el uso continuo de fertilizante de origen químico ha propiciado que la economía de los productores se vea reducida. Por lo anterior el objetivo del presente estudio fue intruir a los productores para realizar insumos orgánicos que incluyeron biopreparados como fungicidas e insecticidas, además de abonos orgánicos de calidad como lombricomposta, bocashi y purín de ortiguilla, con el fin de reducir el uso de agroquímicos y aminorar la contaminación tanto del suelo, del ambiente y preservar su salud

    Ecotoxicological evaluation of the residues of Lippia alba Mill. on Eisenia andrei (earthworm)

    Get PDF
    Introduction: Lippia alba is a plant widely distributed around the world. Its extracts and essential oils are used in various pharmaceutical and cosmetics formulations, including anti-inflammatory frictions. There is currently no scientific information available on the impact the impact of plant residues generated in the production of these formulations on the soil ecosystem, which makes large-scale production of this product difficult. In this ecosystem, the earthworm (Eisenia andrei) is a representative biomodel. Objective: To evaluate the toxicity of the vegetal waste generated during the production of herbal formulations of Lippia alba on Eisenia andrei. Methods: A preliminary phytochemical characterization was made through phytochemical screening, profiling by high performance liquid chromatography, quantification of phenols by Folin-Ciocalteu and flavonoids by aluminum chloride methods. The evaluation in earthworm was carried out by contact and degradation tests on soil, worm humus and artificial substrates. Results: Phytochemical screening revealed the presence of alkaloids, flavonoids, phenolic compounds and saponins. Rutin was identified as the major compound in the chromatographic profile. In the direct contact test of the aqueous extract, no signs of toxicity were observed, so we continued with the residue degradation test, in which total degradation was evidenced in the humus substrate at 56 days; this was not the case for the rest of the substrates. Conclusions: The plant residue of the hydroalcoholic extract of Lippia alba do not show toxicity on E. andrei

    Impact of the historical introduction of exotic fishes on the chironomid community of Lake Azul (Azores Islands)

    Get PDF
    Little is known about the effect of top predator introduction in historically fishless communities, especially on remote islands. This issue is important because it might strongly affect climate reconstructions derived from biota assemblages such as chironomids. Head capsule larval remains of chironomids have been studied in a 660 years lacustrine sedimentary sequence from Lake Azul (Sao Miguel Island, Azores archipelago) to assess the extent and timescale of the effect of the predator introduction occurring in this historically fishless lake. Analysis of similarity showed that the chironomid assemblage was statistically different before and after predator introduction (R = 0.78; p < 0.001). Abundance of chironomids was about 40% greater in the fishless lake period compared to the period in the presence of predator. Results show major change in chironomid assemblage coinciding with the first time of goldfish introduction (around 1790 CE), followed by carp (1890 CE) and pike (1979 CE) introductions. The composition of feeding group guilds changed following a pattern characterized by a decrease in abundance of detritivorous and predaceous taxa and an increase in abundance of grazing chironomid taxa. This study suggests that predator introduction was the most important factor affecting the chironomid assemblages in this natural, Azorean fishless lake, but predators did not affect all chironomid species. Other external forcings like major climate oscillations, anthropogenic activities in the catchment basin, and volcanic eruptions seem to play an additional role. The latest stage of the warm and arid Medieval Climate Anomaly (1000-1300 CE) favoured the occurrence of some warm-adapted chironomid taxa, which were absent through the Little Ice Age (ca. 1450-1850 CE) cool period

    The nuclear and extended infrared emission of the Seyfert galaxy NGC 2992 and the interacting system Arp 245

    We present subarcsecond resolution infrared (IR) imaging and mid-IR (MIR) spectroscopic observations of the Seyfert 1.9 galaxy NGC 2992, obtained with the Gemini North Telescope and the Gran Telescopio CANARIAS (GTC). The N-band image reveals faint extended emission out to ∼3 kpc, and the polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbon features detected in the GTC/CanariCam 7.5–13 μm spectrum indicate that the bulk of this extended emission is dust heated by star formation. We also report arcsecond resolution MIR and far-IR imaging of the interacting system Arp 245, taken with the Spitzer Space Telescope and the Herschel Space Observatory. Using these data, we obtain nuclear fluxes using different methods and find that we can only recover the nuclear fluxes obtained from the subarcsecond data at 20–25 μm, where the active galactic nuclei (AGN) emission dominates. We fitted the nuclear IR spectral energy distribution of NGC 2992, including the GTC/CanariCam nuclear spectrum (∼50 pc), with clumpy torus models. We then used the best-fitting torus model to decompose the Spitzer/IRS 5–30 μm spectrum (∼630 pc) in AGN and starburst components, using different starburst templates. We find that, whereas at shorter MIR wavelengths the starburst component dominates (64 per cent at 6 μm), the AGN component reaches 90 per cent at 20 μm. We finally obtained dust masses, temperatures and star formation rates for the different components of the Arp 245 system and find similar values for NGC 2992 and NGC 2993. These measurements are within those reported for other interacting systems in the first stages of the interaction.IGB acknowledges financial support from the Instituto de Astrofísica de Canarias through Fundacion La Caixa.

    Severe coronavirus disease-2019 (COVID-19) can progress to an acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS), which involves alveolar infiltration by activated neutrophils. The beta-blocker metoprolol has been shown to ameliorate exacerbated inflammation in the myocardial infarction setting. The purpose of this study was to evaluate the effects of metoprolol on alveolar inflammation and on respiratory function in patients with COVID-19-associated ARDS. A total of 20 COVID-19 patients with ARDS on invasive mechanical ventilation were randomized to metoprolol (15 mg daily for 3 days) or control (no treatment). All patients underwent bronchoalveolar lavage (BAL) before and after metoprolol/control. The safety of metoprolol administration was evaluated by invasive hemodynamic and electrocardiogram monitoring and echocardiography. Metoprolol administration was without side effects. At baseline, neutrophil content in BAL did not differ between groups. Conversely, patients randomized to metoprolol had significantly fewer neutrophils in BAL on day 4 (median: 14.3 neutrophils/µl [Q1, Q3: 4.63, 265 neutrophils/µl] vs median: 397 neutrophils/µl [Q1, Q3: 222, 1,346 neutrophils/µl] in the metoprolol and control groups, respectively; P = 0.016). Metoprolol also reduced neutrophil extracellular traps content and other markers of lung inflammation. Oxygenation (PaO2:FiO2) significantly improved after 3 days of metoprolol treatment (median: 130 [Q1, Q3: 110, 162] vs median: 267 [Q1, Q3: 199, 298] at baseline and day 4, respectively; P = 0.003), whereas it remained unchanged in control subjects. Metoprolol-treated patients spent fewer days on invasive mechanical ventilation than those in the control group (15.5 ± 7.6 vs 21.9 ± 12.6 days; P = 0.17). In this pilot trial, intravenous metoprolol administration to patients with COVID-19-associated ARDS was safe, reduced exacerbated lung inflammation, and improved oxygenation. Repurposing metoprolol for COVID-19-associated ARDS appears to be a safe and inexpensive strategy that can alleviate the burden of the COVID-19 pandemic.Mr Clemente-Moragón is supported by a fellowship from the Ministerio de Ciencia e Innovación (FPU2017/01932).

    Impact of hospitalization on nutritional status in persons aged 65 years and over (NUTRIFRAG Study): Protocol for a prospective observational study

    Get PDF
    Background: Malnutrition is a recurring problem that has become more relevant in recent years. The aim of this study is to assess the risk of malnutrition and nutritional status on admission and its evolution until discharge in patients aged 65 and over admitted to medical and surgical hospitalization units in hospitals of the Spanish National Health System. Methods: Prospective observational study to be carried out in the medical-surgical hospitalization units of 9 public hospitals between 01/09/2022 and 31/12/2024. Using consecutive sampling, a total of 4077 patients will be included (453 in each hospital). Variables included are related to the care process, functionality, cognition and comorbidity, risk profile, nutritional status and dysphagia; as well as frailty, dietary quality and contextual variables. The incidence of risk of malnutrition, undernutrition and dysphagia during the care process and at discharge will be calculated. The association with risk factors will be studied with logistic regression models and multivariate Cox regression models. In addition, an analysis of participants' satisfaction with food services will be carried out. The study was approved by the Ethics and Research Committee on 30/09/2020, approved for funding on 02/12/2021 and with registration number RBR-5jnbyhk in the Brazilian clinical trials database (ReBEC) for observational studies. Discussion: Some studies address nutritional status or dysphagia in older people in various care settings. However, there is a lack of large sample studies including both processes of the impact of hospitalization. The results of the project will provide information on the incidence and prevalence of both pathologies in the study subjects, their associated factors and their relationship with the average length of stay, mortality and early readmission. In addition, early detection of a problem such as malnutrition related to the disease and/or dysphagia during a hospital stay will favor the action of professionals to resolve both pathologies and improve the health status of patients.This study has been funded by Instituto de Salud Carlos III (ISCIII) through the project "PI21/00738" and co-funded by the European Union.
