    Get PDF
    El presente libro, tejido a múltiples voces, perspectivas, abordajes teóricos y metodológicos, se inscribe en los proyectos editoriales de la región eje cafetero que se alejan de las lecturas dicotómicas o categóricas, por el contrario, transita los laberintos que se abren camino cuando una sociedad se traza la difícil tarea de construir una paz territorial en medio de los escenarios de la guerra. La memoria social, las voces de sobrevivientes, organizaciones sociales, medios de comunicación, posturas oficiales y cívicas, las apuestas pedagógicas por la paz, las lecturas territoriales del conflicto y las múltiples secuelas de las variadas violencias constituyen los horizontes temáticos de los 12 capítulos del presente libro, interpretando las complejas realidades presentes en el corazón de la región cafetera. Resultado de multiplicidad de voces, formaciones disciplinares y experiencias vitales, así como de la diversidad de organizaciones, entidades y universidades que acogieron el llamado del ¨Programa de Investigación en Transiciones, Violencias y Memoria¨ para construir una apuesta editorial recreada en los marcos de la sociología relacional, las cuales, a partir de perspectivas históricas, críticas y situadas, adelantaron análisis situados en la región cafetera en los tiempos del postacuerdo.Ruta Pacífica de las Mujeres ; Sistema Universitario del Eje Cafetero ; Universidad Católica de Manizales ; Universidad Católica de Pereira ; Vicerrectoría de Investigaciones, Innovación y Extensión Editorial Universidad Tecnológica de Pereira Pereira, Colombia.CONTENIDO Prólogo ....................................................................................................................6 Jefferson Jaramillo Marín Encrucijadas de una paz inacabada.

    Effects of hospital facilities on patient outcomes after cancer surgery: an international, prospective, observational study

    Get PDF
    Background Early death after cancer surgery is higher in low-income and middle-income countries (LMICs) compared with in high-income countries, yet the impact of facility characteristics on early postoperative outcomes is unknown. The aim of this study was to examine the association between hospital infrastructure, resource availability, and processes on early outcomes after cancer surgery worldwide.Methods A multimethods analysis was performed as part of the GlobalSurg 3 study-a multicentre, international, prospective cohort study of patients who had surgery for breast, colorectal, or gastric cancer. The primary outcomes were 30-day mortality and 30-day major complication rates. Potentially beneficial hospital facilities were identified by variable selection to select those associated with 30-day mortality. Adjusted outcomes were determined using generalised estimating equations to account for patient characteristics and country-income group, with population stratification by hospital.Findings Between April 1, 2018, and April 23, 2019, facility-level data were collected for 9685 patients across 238 hospitals in 66 countries (91 hospitals in 20 high-income countries; 57 hospitals in 19 upper-middle-income countries; and 90 hospitals in 27 low-income to lower-middle-income countries). The availability of five hospital facilities was inversely associated with mortality: ultrasound, CT scanner, critical care unit, opioid analgesia, and oncologist. After adjustment for case-mix and country income group, hospitals with three or fewer of these facilities (62 hospitals, 1294 patients) had higher mortality compared with those with four or five (adjusted odds ratio [OR] 3.85 [95% CI 2.58-5.75]; p<0.0001), with excess mortality predominantly explained by a limited capacity to rescue following the development of major complications (63.0% vs 82.7%; OR 0.35 [0.23-0.53]; p<0.0001). Across LMICs, improvements in hospital facilities would prevent one to three deaths for every 100 patients undergoing surgery for cancer.Interpretation Hospitals with higher levels of infrastructure and resources have better outcomes after cancer surgery, independent of country income. Without urgent strengthening of hospital infrastructure and resources, the reductions in cancer-associated mortality associated with improved access will not be realised

    Patrón de actividad de Chironectes minimus (Didelphimorphia: Didelphidae) en ecosistemas periurbanos (Valle de Aburrá-Colombia), con anotaciones sobre su distribución altitudinal

    The water opossum, Chironectes minimus, is perhaps one of the most cryptic marsupials in the Neotropics. Even though it has specific presence records throughout its distribution, its reports are scarce in ecosystems surrounding peri-urban areas. In this contribution, we report a new locality for the species to the southeast of the Aburrá Valley, Antioquia, Colombia. From the analysis of the activity patterns, it was identified that the species shows a nocturnal activity trend, mainly between 19h00 and 00h00. Regarding to the review and analysis of its altitudinal distribution, even though there are records at different altitudinal ranges, records above 2.000 masl are scarce. Here we report a record at 2.660 masl and corroborate one at 2.562 masl in the study area. Likewise, from the review, we highlight the highest altitude record at 2.800 masl, which would expand its current range.La Chucha de Agua, Chironectes minimus, es quizás uno de los marsupiales más crípticos en el Neotrópico. A pesar de que cuenta con registros puntuales sobre su presencia a lo largo de su distribución, sus reportes son escasos en ecosistemas circundantes a zonas periurbanas. Aquí reportamos una nueva localidad de presencia para la especie al suroriente del Valle de Aburrá, Antioquia, Colombia. A partir de análisis de los patrones actividad, se identificó que la especie presentó una tendencia nocturna, principalmente entre las 19h00 y las 00h00. Con respecto a la revisión y sobre su distribución altitudinal, a pesar de que existen registros a diferentes intervalos altitudinales, los registros sobre los 2.000 msnm son escasos. Reportamos un registro a 2.660 msnm y corroboramos uno a 2.562 msnm en el área de estudio. Igualmente, a partir de la revisión resaltamos el registro de mayor altitud a 2.800 msnm el cual ampliaría su rango actual

    Global variation in postoperative mortality and complications after cancer surgery: a multicentre, prospective cohort study in 82 countries

    Background: 80% of individuals with cancer will require a surgical procedure, yet little comparative data exist on early outcomes in low-income and middle-income countries (LMICs). We compared postoperative outcomes in breast, colorectal, and gastric cancer surgery in hospitals worldwide, focusing on the effect of disease stage and complications on postoperative mortality. Methods: This was a multicentre, international prospective cohort study of consecutive adult patients undergoing surgery for primary breast, colorectal, or gastric cancer requiring a skin incision done under general or neuraxial anaesthesia. The primary outcome was death or major complication within 30 days of surgery. Multilevel logistic regression determined relationships within three-level nested models of patients within hospitals and countries. Hospital-level infrastructure effects were explored with three-way mediation analyses. This study was registered with ClinicalTrials.gov, NCT03471494. Findings: Between April 1, 2018, and Jan 31, 2019, we enrolled 15 958 patients from 428 hospitals in 82 countries (high income 9106 patients, 31 countries; upper-middle income 2721 patients, 23 countries; or lower-middle income 4131 patients, 28 countries). Patients in LMICs presented with more advanced disease compared with patients in high-income countries. 30-day mortality was higher for gastric cancer in low-income or lower-middle-income countries (adjusted odds ratio 3·72, 95% CI 1·70–8·16) and for colorectal cancer in low-income or lower-middle-income countries (4·59, 2·39–8·80) and upper-middle-income countries (2·06, 1·11–3·83). No difference in 30-day mortality was seen in breast cancer. The proportion of patients who died after a major complication was greatest in low-income or lower-middle-income countries (6·15, 3·26–11·59) and upper-middle-income countries (3·89, 2·08–7·29). Postoperative death after complications was partly explained by patient factors (60%) and partly by hospital or country (40%). The absence of consistently available postoperative care facilities was associated with seven to 10 more deaths per 100 major complications in LMICs. Cancer stage alone explained little of the early variation in mortality or postoperative complications. Interpretation: Higher levels of mortality after cancer surgery in LMICs was not fully explained by later presentation of disease. The capacity to rescue patients from surgical complications is a tangible opportunity for meaningful intervention. Early death after cancer surgery might be reduced by policies focusing on strengthening perioperative care systems to detect and intervene in common complications.
