    51 páginasThis project aims to design a prototype of technological innovation to create a mobile application, which serves as a platform to communicate to professionals of the different specialties offered by psychology with people who require this service. The application will allow you to interact with users who take the service in different ways to perform consultations and treatments. When implementing this prototype it is sought that the user experience is friendly and intuitive, so the application will be leveraged in the use of technologies such as natural language processing (PLN), Artificial intelligence (Al), machine learning, Big data, the use of the internet as a means of transmission, and the internet of things (loT), facilitating contact with professionals quickly and quickly. Preventive consultations, counseling and coaching will be offered, among other services focused on mental health, reducing intermediation costs for those involved, achieving immediacy in access to the service and confidentiality. In this prototyping the step-by-step interaction is presented by contacting a professional who delivers answers to questions via chat as an added value, using tools such as video calling, which allows connection from anywhere in the city and receiving home visits.En este proyecto se pretende diseñar un prototipo de innovación tecnológica para crear una aplicación móvil, que sirva como plataforma para comunicar a profesionales de las distintas especialidades que ofrece la psicología con personas que requieran este servicio.

    La enfermedad de Parkinson es una patología crónica y degenerativa, que no sólo afecta a la persona enferma, sino que también afecta la salud de los cuidadores principales ya que con el tiempo ellos deberán ir asumiendo cada vez más responsabilidades en el acompañamiento. En estos últimos suelen aparecer malestares psicológicos tales como tristeza y depresión, fatiga y falta de energía, problemas de sueño, insatisfacción ante la vida y malestar social, los cuales, a largo plazo pueden transformarse en manifestaciones físicas de otras enfermedades como fallas cardiacas, fibromialgia, cefaleas, hipertensión arterial, entre otros.

    [EN] Background. The NDI, COM and NPQ are evaluation instruments for disability due to NP. There was no Spanish version of NDI or COM for which psychometric characteristics were known. The objectives of this study were to translate and culturally adapt the Spanish version of the Neck Disability Index Questionnaire (NDI), and the Core Outcome Measure (COM), to validate its use in Spanish speaking patients with non-specific neck pain (NP), and to compare their psychometric characteristics with those of the Spanish version of the Northwick Pain Questionnaire (NPQ). Methods. Translation/re-translation of the English versions of the NDI and the COM was done blindly and independently by a multidisciplinary team. The study was done in 9 primary care Centers and 12 specialty services from 9 regions in Spain, with 221 acute, subacute and chronic patients who visited their physician for NP: 54 in the pilot phase and 167 in the validation phase. Neck pain (VAS), referred pain (VAS), disability (NDI, COM and NPQ), catastrophizing (CSQ) and quality of life (SF-12) were measured on their first visit and 14 days later. Patients' self-assessment was used as the external criterion for pain and disability. In the pilot phase, patients' understanding of each item in the NDI and COM was assessed, and on day 1 test-retest reliability was estimated by giving a second NDI and COM in which the name of the questionnaires and the order of the items had been changed. Results. Comprehensibility of NDI and COM were good. Minutes needed to fill out the questionnaires [median, (P25, P75)]: NDI. 4 (2.2, 10.0), COM: 2.1 (1.0, 4.9). Reliability: [ICC, (95%CI)]: NDI: 0.88 (0.80, 0.93). COM: 0.85 (0.75,0.91). Sensitivity to change: Effect size for patients having worsened, not changed and improved between days 1 and 15, according to the external criterion for disability: NDI: -0.24, 0.15, 0.66; NPQ: -0.14, 0.06, 0.67; COM: 0.05, 0.19, 0.92. Validity: Results of NDI, NPQ and COM were consistent with the external criterion for disability, whereas only those from NDI were consistent with the one for pain. Correlations with VAS, CSQ and SF-12 were similar for NDI and NPQ (absolute values between 0.36 and 0.50 on day 1, between 0.38 and 0.70 on day 15), and slightly lower for COM (between 0.36 and 0.48 on day 1, and between 0.33 and 0.61 on day 15). Correlation between NDI and NPQ: r = 0.84 on day 1, r = 0.91 on day 15. Correlation between COM and NPQ: r = 0.63 on day 1, r = 0.71 on day 15. Conclusion. Although most psychometric characteristics of NDI, NPQ and COM are similar, those from the latter one are worse and its use may lead to patients' evolution seeming more positive than it actually is. NDI seems to be the best instrument for measuring NP-related disability, since its results are the most consistent with patient's assessment of their own clinical status and evolution. It takes two more minutes to answer the NDI than to answer the COM, but it can be reliably filled out by the patient without assistanceS

We first perform a large genetic association study by merging all available case-control datasets and by-proxy study results (discovery n = 409,435 and validation size n = 58,190). Here, we add six variants associated with Alzheimer's disease risk (near APP, CHRNE, PRKD3/NDUFAF7, PLCG2 and two exonic variants in the SHARPIN gene). Assessment of the polygenic risk score and stratifying by APOE reveal a 4 to 5.5 years difference in median age at onset of Alzheimer's disease patients in APOE ɛ4 carriers. Because of this study, the underlying mechanisms of APP can be studied to refine the amyloid cascade and the polygenic risk score provides a tool to select individuals at high risk of Alzheimer's disease

    New insights into the genetic etiology of Alzheimer's disease and related dementias

    Characterization of the genetic landscape of Alzheimer's disease (AD) and related dementias (ADD) provides a unique opportunity for a better understanding of the associated pathophysiological processes. We performed a two-stage genome-wide association study totaling 111,326 clinically diagnosed/'proxy' AD cases and 677,663 controls. We found 75 risk loci, of which 42 were new at the time of analysis. Pathway enrichment analyses confirmed the involvement of amyloid/tau pathways and highlighted microglia implication. Gene prioritization in the new loci identified 31 genes that were suggestive of new genetically associated processes, including the tumor necrosis factor alpha pathway through the linear ubiquitin chain assembly complex. We also built a new genetic risk score associated with the risk of future AD/dementia or progression from mild cognitive impairment to AD/dementia. The improvement in prediction led to a 1.6- to 1.9-fold increase in AD risk from the lowest to the highest decile, in addition to effects of age and the APOE ε4 allele

    ONES ha venido para revolucionar el mercado de calzado de las pequeñas empresas del sector del retrepo y darle un giro a las ventas usando un nuevo canal de distribución (aplicación móvil), llegando con una idea innovadora y capaz de generar grandes cambios en la comercialización del calzado, los clientes de este nicho de mercado podrán obtener un excelente calzado a precios más bajo de los que venden las grandes marcas posesionadas actualmente en sector. En el trabajo de campo que se realizó en una feria de calzado en la plaza de los artesanos donde se conoció de primera mano el excelente trabajo que realizan los diferentes fabricantes de calzado del sector del Restrepo son productos con mano de obra 100% colombiana y a precios cómodos para cualquier persona, zapatos que quizás se encuentran en centros comerciales o páginas web de las grandes marcas y a precios que a razón de la cadena productiva deben aumentar. En entrevista con el señor José Yesid Angulo campos director y fundador del periódico el Peletero, menciono lo importante que es estar a la vanguardia hoy en día con la tecnología, debido al auge que se encuentra y que va encaminado a sistema que es tan cambiante. Si el sector estuviera o fuera más exequible al uso de ellas sus ventas y su marca serian reconocidas y así no tendrían que terciar izar la mayor parte de su mercancía a las grandes marcas. Hoy en día las ventas del calzado se están viendo afectadas por la competencia de mercados extranjeros el cual les ha quitado participación por su forma de comercializar y sus precios bajos, esto les ha afectado y es hora de buscar nuevos canales de distribución y de llegar a más clientes y es lo que ONES hará con su propuesta de valor.In the neighborhood Restrepo, the concentration of microenterprises engaged in the manufacture and marketing of footwear is high; therefore manufacturers must use price strategies that vary widely from one location to another for this the idea of a mobile application is evaluated; aimed at footwear producers in the Restrepo neighborhood; where they can market their products; allowing this sector to diversify its distribution channels: to corroborate if ONES would be well received by the footwear manufacturers of the neighborhood the neighborhood Restrepo; a quantitative method was applied to gather relevant information from producers in the sector; by which interests were identified in the proposal: Evaluating the viability of the business; the project contributes to the growth of the sector; providing alternatives to reach other markets without the need to access intermediaries; also finds that despite being a sector biased to technology if they would be willing to innovate.1.
