Prototipo de sistema e-health, utilizando la plataforma mysignals hw 2.0.

The incorporation of new technologies that involve telemedicine, is considered as an effective and long time solution that can be used to solve some of the National Health System issues. It was seen what is its development in Colombia and the world in general, besides the way in which this project can help the local incorporation of e-Health systems, through the application of engineering and especially electronics. These developments were reviewed at a national and international level, as well as the way in which this project can help the local incorporation of e-Health systems, through the application of engineering and especially electronics. The company Libellium has launched platform models for e-Health uses. The project uses MySignals HW 2.0 designed only for researchers and developers, this platform in conjunction with the development platform works as an e-Health system, it addresses the implementation of this system in order to have approval in our local area Barranquilla for generate reliable results, susceptible as an alternative solution to the national health system. Then, the results obtained by the system were analyzed, making a calibration between patterns and the sensors with which the device is available. Verifying the effectiveness of the project by calculating the errors in each case. The final report of the project titled prototype of e-Health system using Mysignals HW 2.0 platform showing the functioning of the system, coupling and results is presentedDentro de las problemáticas que presenta el Sistema de salud Nacional, se abordó como una solución efectiva y a largo plazo la incorporación de nuevas tecnologías que permiten aplicar la telemedicina, como una solución válida para mejorar las prestaciones de salud en el país.

Circonscription et mise en valeur des patrimoines universitaires

Le travail que nous vous présentons porte le patrimoine universitaire et sa valorisation au centre du questionnement. Nous avons entrepris de circonscrire la notion de patrimoine immatériel universitaire afin de vous la présenter. Celle-ci est de manière diachronique et synchronique à l’échelle européenne et nationale.Cette contextualisation permet une exemplification par le patrimoine universitaire d’Aix-Marseille Université. Nous partirons de références larges puis viendrons nous concentrer sur le cas plus spécifique d’Aix-Marseille Université. La présentation se déroule en trois grands mouvements qui permettront en un premier temps de circonscrire le patrimoine universitaire et plus précisément le patrimoine immatériel universitaire. Le second mouvement présentera les entités constitutives de ces patrimoines universitaires sans perdre de vue la prédominance de notre intérêt pour le patrimoine immatériel. Car le troisième mouvement sera dédié à la communication aux publics de cette mise en valeur du patrimoine immatériel universitaire

Evaluation of Archival HIV DNA in Brain and Lymphoid Tissues

HIV reservoirs persist in anatomic compartments despite antiretroviral therapy (ART). Characterizing archival HIV DNA in the central nervous system (CNS) and other tissues is crucial to inform cure strategies. We evaluated paired autopsy brain-frontal cortex (FC), occipital cortex (OCC), and basal ganglia (BG)-and peripheral lymphoid tissues from 63 people with HIV. Participants passed away while virally suppressed on ART at the last visit and without evidence of CNS opportunistic disease. We quantified total HIV DNA in all participants and obtained full-length HIV-envelope (FL HIV-env) sequences from a subset of 14 participants. We detected HIV DNA (gag) in most brain (65.1%) and all lymphoid tissues. Lymphoid tissues had higher HIV DNA levels than the brain (P < 0.01). Levels of HIV gag between BG and FC were similar (P > 0.2), while OCC had the lowest levels (P = 0.01). Females had higher HIV DNA levels in tissues than males (gag, P = 0.03; 2-LTR, P = 0.05), suggesting possible sex-associated mechanisms for HIV reservoir persistence. Most FL HIV-env sequences (n = 143) were intact, while 42 were defective. Clonal sequences were found in 8 out of 14 participants, and 1 participant had clonal defective sequences in the brain and spleen, suggestive of cell migration. From 10 donors with paired brain and lymphoid sequences, we observed evidence of compartmentalized sequences in 2 donors. Our data further the idea that the brain is a site for archival HIV DNA during ART where compartmentalized provirus may occur in a subset of people. Future studies assessing FL HIV-provirus and replication competence are needed to further evaluate the HIV reservoirs in tissues. IMPORTANCE HIV infection of the brain is associated with adverse neuropsychiatric outcomes, despite efficient antiretroviral treatment. HIV may persist in reservoirs in the brain and other tissues, which can seed virus replication if treatment is interrupted, representing a major challenge to cure HIV. We evaluated reservoirs and genetic features in postmortem brain and lymphoid tissues from people with HIV who passed away during suppressed HIV replication. We found a differential distribution of HIV reservoirs across brain regions which was lower than that in lymphoid tissues. We observed that most HIV reservoirs in tissues had intact envelope sequences, suggesting they could potentially generate replicative viruses. We found that women had higher HIV reservoir levels in brain and lymphoid tissues than men, suggesting possible sex-based mechanisms of maintenance of HIV reservoirs in tissues, warranting further investigation. Characterizing the archival HIV DNA in tissues is important to inform future HIV cure strategies

Cultural Differences in Attitudes Toward Action and Inaction : The Role of Dialecticism

The current research examinedwhether nations differ in their attitudes toward action and inaction. Itwas anticipated that members of dialectical EastAsian societies would show a positive association in their attitudes toward action/inaction.However,members of nondialectical European-American societieswere expected to showa negative association in their attitudes toward action/inaction. Young adults in 19 nations completed measures of dialectical thinking and attitudes toward action/inaction. Results frommulti-level modeling showed, as predicted, that people fromhigh dialecticism nations reported amore positive association in their attitudes toward action and inaction than people from low dialecticism nations. Furthermore, these findings remained after controlling for cultural differences in individualism-collectivism, neuroticism, gross-domestic product, and response style. Discussion highlights the implications of these findings for action/inaction goals, dialecticism, and culture
