    Hue es un proyecto que nace con el interés de hacer un homenaje a Jaime Gutiérrez Lega, y que pretende que los jóvenes diseñadores colombianos lo conozcan y se motiven por su trayectoria. Se realizaron cuatro rediseños: la silla Neumático (1959), la silla Ovejo (1972), la silla Paila (1957), y la silla Cero Desperdicio (1970).Hue was born in 2019 as a project of the Brand Identity course, where the intention was to make a tribute to Colombian designers, including Jaime Gutiérrez Lega, through the redesign of their chairs with the style of the Italian brand, Kartell. Designers Pablo and Emilia fell in love with the idea, so they continued it as their degree project for their Industrial Design degree at the Pontificia Universidad Javeriana in Bogota. The project evolved and its objective became that young Colombian designers know and be motivated by the spectacular career that has had the father of Colombian design, Jaime Gutiérrez Lega, because the history of this discipline in the country is not known as it should by the new generations and thanks to this it is considered that there is no Colombian design or that it is, failing that, has no importance. To achieve this goal, together with Jaime, new designs were created inspired by four of his most emblematic chairs: The Pneumatic chair (1959), the Ovejo chair (1972), the Paila chair (1957) and the Zero Waste chair (1970). The chairs in the Hue collection are the hybridization of an icon of classic Colombian design combined with the modern and contemporary style of Pablo and Emilia. They were designed with simple, sober lines that attract the attention of the public, so that their young colleagues can get excited and leave the exhibition saying "If Jaime could, I can".Diseñador (a) IndustrialMaestrí

    Synthesis of divalent ligands of beta-thio- and beta-N-galactopyranosides and related lactosides and their evaluation as substrates and inhibitors of Trypanosoma cruzi trans-sialidase

    In this work we describe the synthesis of mono- and divalent β-N- and β-S-galactopyranosides and related lactosides built on sugar scaffolds and their evaluation as substrates and inhibitors of the Trypanosoma cruzi trans-sialidase (TcTS). This enzyme catalyzes the transfer of sialic acid from an oligosaccharidic donor in the host, to parasite βGalp terminal units and it has been demonstrated that it plays an important role in the infection. Herein, the enzyme was also tested as a tool for the chemoenzymatic synthesis of sialic acid containing glycoclusters. The transfer reaction of sialic acid was performed using a recombinant TcTS and 3?-sialyllactose as sialic acid donor, in the presence of the acceptor having βGalp non reducing ends. The products were analyzed by high performance anion exchange chromatography with pulse amperometric detection (HPAEC-PAD). The ability of the different S-linked and N-linked glycosides to inhibit the sialic acid transfer reaction from 3?-sialyllactose to the natural substrate N-acetyllactosamine, was also studied. Most of the substrates behaved as good acceptors and moderate competitive inhibitors. A di-N-lactoside showed to be the strongest competitive inhibitor among the compounds tested (70% inhibition at equimolar concentration). The usefulness of the enzymatic trans-sialylation for the preparation of sialylated ligands was assessed by performing a preparative sialylation of a divalent substrate, which afforded the monosialylated compound as main product, together with the disialylated glycocluster.Fil: Cano, María Emilia.

    In the present study, the incidence of the lack of application of ICTs in the teaching processes will be addressed, within the educational establishment "Honoria Méndez Zambrano", which is located in the Pasaje De Arriba campus, belonging to the Colimes canton, The need to carry out this study arises after evidencing a lag in teaching techniques within the campus, taking into consideration that, during the pandemic, different modalities proliferated. The problem in question is a poor development of the cognitive abilities of the students of the campus, since, with a limited implementation of technologies, they cannot access content that is normally transferred by teachers through means such as Hotmail, WhatsApp or Edmodo, this is because, being located in a rural area, they do not enjoy the benefits of connectivity. The reason why it was decided to carry out this study is to set a precedent on the reality of public institutions located in rural areas, since, in a world where educational paradigms are constantly changing, a technological lag could mean the training of students with low competitiveness and with limitations in terms of their aptitudes.En el presente estudio se abordará la incidencia que tiene la falta de aplicación de las TICs en los procesos de enseñanza, dentro del plantel educativo "Honoria Méndez Zambrano", mismo que se encuentra ubicado en el recinto Pasaje De Arriba, perteneciente al cantón Colimes, la necesidad de realizar este estudio surge, tras evidenciar un rezago en las técnicas de enseñanza dentro del plantel, tomando en consideración que, durante la pandemia, proliferaron diferentes modalidades. El problema en cuestión es un escaso desarrollo de las habilidades cognitivas de los estudiantes del plantel, puesto que, con una limitada implementación de tecnologías, estos no pueden acceder a contenidos que normalmente son transferidos por los docentes a través de medios como Hotmail, WhatsApp o Edmodo, esto debido a que, por ubicarse en una zona rural, no gozan de las bondades de la conectividad. El motivo por el cual, se decide realizar este estudio es para sentar precedente sobre la realidad de las instituciones públicas ubicadas en zonas rurales, puesto que, en un mundo donde los paradigmas de la educación están en constante cambio, un rezago tecnológico podría suponer la formación de estudiantes con baja competitividad y con limitaciones en cuanto a sus aptitudes

    Variation in Susceptibility to Downy Mildew Infection in Spanish Minority Vine Varieties

    Get PDF
    Downy mildew is one of the most destructive diseases affecting grapevines (Vitis vinifera L.). Caused by the oomycete Plasmopara viticola (Berk. and Curt.) Berl. and de Toni, it can appear anywhere where vines are cultivated. It is habitually controlled by the application of phytosanitary agents (copper-based or systemic) at different stages of the vine growth cycle. This, however, is costly, can lead to reduced yields, has a considerable environmental impact, and its overuse close to harvest can cause fermentation problems. All grapevines are susceptible to this disease, although the degree of susceptibility differs between varieties. Market demands and European legislation on viticulture and the use of phytosanitary agents (art. 14 of Directive 128/2009/EC) now make it important to know the sensitivity of all available varieties, including minority varieties. Such knowledge allows for a more appropriate use of phytosanitary agents, fosters the commercial use of these varieties and thus increases the offer of wines associated with different terroirs, and helps identify material for use in crop improvement programmes via crossing or genetic transformation, etc. Over 2020–2021, the susceptibility to P. viticola of 63 minority vine varieties from different regions of Spain was examined in the laboratory using the leaf disc technique. Some 87% of these varieties were highly susceptible and 11% moderately susceptible; just 2% showed low susceptibility. The least susceptible of all was the variety Morate (Madrid, IMIDRA). Those showing intermediate susceptibility included the varieties Sanguina (Castilla la Mancha, IVICAM), Planta Mula (Comunidad Valenciana, ITVE), Rayada Melonera (Madrid, IMIDRA), Zamarrica (Galicia, EVEGA), Cariñena Roja (Cataluña, INCAVI), Mandrègue (Aragón, DGA) and Bastardo Blanco (Extremadura, CICYTEX). The highly susceptible varieties could be differentiated into three subgroups depending on sporulation severity and density

    In January 2020, the Chinese authorities identified a new virus of the Coronaviridae family as the cause of several cases of pneumonia of unknown aetiology. The outbreak was initially confined to Wuhan City, but then spread outside Chinese borders. On 31 January 2020, the first case was declared in Spain. On 11 March 2020, The World Health Organization (WHO) declared the coronavirus outbreak a pandemic. On 16 March 2020, there were 139 countries affected. In this situation, the Scientific Societies SEMICYUC and SEEIUC, have decided to draw up this Contingency Plan to guide the response of the Intensive Care Services. The objectives of this plan are to estimate the magnitude of the problem and identify the necessary human and material resources. This is to provide the Spanish Intensive Medicine Services with a tool to programme optimal response strategies

    Clinical Impact of the Time in Therapeutic Range on Early Hospital Readmission in Patients with Acute Heart Failure Treated with Oral Anticoagulation in Internal Medicine

    Background and objectives: Patients with heart failure (HF) often present with non-valvular atrial fibrillation and require oral anticoagulation with coumarin anticoagulants such as acenocoumarol. The objective of this study was to evaluate the relationship between time in therapeutic range (TTR) and the risk of early readmission. Materials and Methods: A retrospective descriptive study was carried out on hospitalized patients with a diagnosis of HF between 2014 and 2018 who had adverse effects due to oral anticoagulation with acenocoumarol (underdosing, overdosing, or hemorrhage). Clinical, analytical, therapeutic, and prognostic variables were collected. TTR is defined as the duration of time in which the patient’s International Normalized Ratio (INR) values were within a desired range. Early readmission was defined as readmission within 30 days after hospital discharge. Patients were divided into two groups depending on whether or not they had a TTR less than 60% (TTR < 60%) over the 6 months prior to the adverse event. Results: In the cohort of 304 patients, the mean age was 82 years, 59.9% of the patients were female, and 54.6% had a TTR < 60%. Patients with TTR < 60% had a higher HAS-BLED score (4.04 vs. 2.59; p < 0.001) and INR (6 vs. 5.31; p < 0.05) but lower hemoglobin (11.67 vs. 12.22 g/dL; p < 0.05). TTR < 60% was associated with early readmission after multivariate analysis (OR: 2.05 (CI 95%: 1.16–3.61)). They also had a higher percentage of hemorrhagic events and in-hospital mortality but without reaching statistical significance. Conclusions: Patients with HF and adverse events due to acenocoumarol often have poor INR control, which is independently associated with a higher risk of early readmission

    This article presents current perspectives on the gender approach to the study of migration in Chile between 1990 and 2018, contextualizing it in light of international debates in the social sciences. We will discuss how the feminization and the growth of Latin American migrations have given rise to a prolific field of research, as exemplified by studies conducted in central and northern Chile. We will show how the concepts of social remittances and caregiving permeate the Chilean debate on migrant women. We conclude with reflections on topics and perspectives to be incorporated into the Chilean research agenda on gender and migration.Se presenta un estado del arte sobre el enfoque de género en los estudios de la migración en Chile entre 1990 y 2018, contextualizándolo a la luz de debates internacionales de las ciencias sociales. Abordaremos cómo la feminización y el incremento de las migraciones latinoamericanas inauguran un prolijo campo de investigaciones, articulado a través de estudios desarrollados en el centro y en el norte de Chile. Señalaremos cómo los conceptos de remesas sociales y cuidados permean el debate chileno sobre las mujeres migrantes. Finalizamos con reflexiones sobre temas y perspectivas a ser incorporados en la agenda chilena de investigaciones sobre género y migración.The authors would like to thank the Chilean National Commission for Scientific and Technological Research (CONICYT) for funding the study that led to this article through Fondecyt Regular Project number 1160683: “Ser Mujer Mayor en Santiago.

    Autonomous cortisol secretion in patients with primary aldosteronism: prevalence and implications on cardiometabolic profile and on surgical outcomes

    Get PDF
    Purpose: The aim of this study was to evaluate the prevalence of autonomous cortisol secretion (ACS) in patients with primary aldosteronism (PA) and its implications on cardiometabolic and surgical outcomes. Methods: This is a retrospective multicenter study of PA patients who underwent 1 mg dexamethasone-suppression test (DST) during diagnostic workup in 21 Spanish tertiary hospitals. ACS was defined as a cortisol post-DST >1.8 μg/dL (confirmed ACS if >5 μg/dL and possible ACS if 1.8–5 μg/dL) in the absence of spe cific clinical features of hypercortisolism. The cardiometabolic profile was compared with a control group with ACS without PA (ACS group) matched for age and DST levels. Results: The prevalence of ACS in the global cohort of patients with PA (n = 176) was 29% (ACS–PA; n = 51). Ten patients had confirmed ACS and 41 possible ACS. The cardiometabolic profile of ACS–PA and PA-only patients was simil ar, except for older age and larger tumor size of the adrenal lesion in the ACS–PA group. When comparing the ACS–PA group (n = 51) and the ACS group (n = 78), the prevalence of hypertension (OR 7.7 (2.64–22.32)) and cardiovascular events (OR 5.0 (2.29–11.07)) was higher in ACS–PA patients than in ACS patients. The coexistence of ACS in patien ts with PA did not affect the surgical outcomes, the proportion of biochemical cure and clinical cure being similar between ACS–PA and PA-only groups. Conclusion: Co-secretion of cortisol and aldosterone affects almost one-thi rd of patients with PA. Its occurrence is more frequent in patients with larger tumors and advanced age. However, the cardiometabolic and surgical outcomes of patients with ACS–PA and PA-only are similar
