Hábitos orales, un abordaje interdisciplinar

PublishedEl Programa de Fonoaudiología de la Universidad Santiago de Cali, ofrece a los estudiantes y profesionales de fonoaudiología el presente libro de texto; en él encontrarán una serie de planteamientos y orientaciones para el trabajo de la fonoaudiología en la especialidad de terapia miofuncional orofacial. El libro inicia con la contextualización histórica de la profesión de la fonoaudiología en el mundo, Latinoamérica y en Colombia, para posteriormente integrar la historia de la terapia y motricidad orofacial en los mismos ámbitos; al mismo tiempo describe los inicios de la terapia miofuncional de la mano del desarrollo de la profesión de odontología

Trayectorias de un viaje por la investigación educativa desde el sentipensar de los maestros y maestras : experiencias en desarrollo del programa de pensamiento crítico

428 páginasEste libro reúne 19 experiencias que continúan el acompañamiento en la fundamentación, desarrollo y estructuración de estrategias de tipo pedagógico y didáctico dentro de la ruta sentipensante en el Nivel II: Experiencias en desarrollo. Igualmente, en estas experiencias se hace una ampliación de referentes, técnicas e instrumentos para recoger información de los 19 textos presentados. De tal manera, estas experiencias son fruto de este acompañamiento que ha realizado el Instituto para la Investigación Educativa y el Desarrollo Pedagógico IDEP, que servirán de base y referente para seguir aportando en la configuración y consolidación de comunidades de saber y práctica pedagógica, así como en la conformación de colectivos y redes de maestros y maestras

Guidelines for the use and interpretation of assays for monitoring autophagy (4th edition)1.

In 2008, we published the first set of guidelines for standardizing research in autophagy. Since then, this topic has received increasing attention, and many scientists have entered the field. Our knowledge base and relevant new technologies have also been expanding. Thus, it is important to formulate on a regular basis updated guidelines for monitoring autophagy in different organisms. Despite numerous reviews, there continues to be confusion regarding acceptable methods to evaluate autophagy, especially in multicellular eukaryotes. Here, we present a set of guidelines for investigators to select and interpret methods to examine autophagy and related processes, and for reviewers to provide realistic and reasonable critiques of reports that are focused on these processes. These guidelines are not meant to be a dogmatic set of rules, because the appropriateness of any assay largely depends on the question being asked and the system being used. Moreover, no individual assay is perfect for every situation, calling for the use of multiple techniques to properly monitor autophagy in each experimental setting. Finally, several core components of the autophagy machinery have been implicated in distinct autophagic processes (canonical and noncanonical autophagy), implying that genetic approaches to block autophagy should rely on targeting two or more autophagy-related genes that ideally participate in distinct steps of the pathway. Along similar lines, because multiple proteins involved in autophagy also regulate other cellular pathways including apoptosis, not all of them can be used as a specific marker for bona fide autophagic responses. Here, we critically discuss current methods of assessing autophagy and the information they can, or cannot, provide. Our ultimate goal is to encourage intellectual and technical innovation in the field

Goal integration and well-being: self-regulation through inner resources

Past research and theoretical development have greatly advanced our understanding of the potential benefits of personality integration for individual well-being. Indeed, it has been shown that measures of personality integration predict self-actualization, vitality, openness to experience, self-esteem and subjective well-being. The present study focused on the combined influence of personality integration through the personal-striving goal construct, active-passive approach toward achieving ones goals, and inner resources on well-being. Through a self-questionnaire methodology, the sample consisted of one hundred and fourteen second-year undergraduate psychology students living in Spain, with 36 men (31.6%) and 78 women (68.4%). The mean age was 23.1 years (SD = 3.2). Through an ideographic goal assessment technique, the three-way interaction analysis showed that goal integration was related to more vitality, except when a person had both high inner resources and used active thinking in achieving goals. Here, the level of vitality remained very similar whether goals coherence was low or high. It was showed that inner resources combined with active thinking to function as a buffer for the possible negative effects on vitality. Overall results present active-passive thinking combined with inner resources as an influential factor in the relation between goal integration and well-being

Video evento de lanzamiento de la maestría en Estudios del Territorio (31 de mayo de 2023)

El propósito del evento es el de promocionar la apertura de la segunda cohorte de la Maestría en Estudios del Territorio, que se apoya en el grupo de investigación “Procesos Sociales, Territorios y Medio Ambiente”. Nuestra propuesta de formación busca abordar los problemas del territorio y las territorialidades contemporáneas considerando su visión histórica, en el marco de la crisis de los modos urbanos e industriales, considerando sus impactos ecológicos y ambientales y sus desafíos. Esto reconociendo los modelos emergentes de construcción de los territorios colectivos y aquellos propios de los modelos ancestrales. Ello se complementa con los debates epistemológicos sobre el territorio en contexto de las ciencias sociales, a partir de las dinámicas contemporáneas producto de las interacciones de los sujetos individuales y colectivos y sus prácticas y representaciones en tiempos y lugares específicos. Esto con el fin de aproximarnos a una reflexividad interpretativa y dinámica de los procesos de ocupación, uso, regulación y valoración de los territorios que habitamos y en los que vivimos

Down syndrome as risk factor for respiratory syncytial virus hospitalization : A prospective multicenter epidemiological study

Respiratory syncytial virus (RSV) infection in childhood, particularly in premature infants, is associated with significant morbidity and mortality. To compare the hospitalization rates due to RSV infection and severity of disease between infants with and without Down syndrome (DS) born at term and without other associated risk factors for severe RSV infection. In a prospective multicentre epidemiological study, 93 infants were included in the DS cohort and 68 matched by sex and data of birth (±1 week) and were followed up to 1 year of age and during a complete RSV season. The hospitalization rate for all acute respiratory infection was significantly higher in the DS cohort than in the non-DS cohort (44.1% vs 7.7%, P<.0001). Hospitalizations due to RSV were significantly more frequent in the DH cohort than in the non-DS cohort (9.7% vs 1.5%, P=.03). RSV prophylaxis was recorded in 33 (35.5%) infants with DS. The rate of hospitalization according to presence or absence of RSV immunoprophylaxis was 3.0% vs 15%, respectively. Infants with DS showed a higher rate of hospitalization due to acute lower respiratory tract infection and RSV infection compared to non-DS infants. Including DS infants in recommendations for immunoprophylaxis of RSV disease should be considered
