    El presente es un compendio del producto desarrollado por la Universidad Nacional de Cuyo. El mismo abarca la gestión Rectoral de la Dra. María Victoria Gómez de Erice y del Ing. Arturo Somoza, enmarcado en una visión amplia y de activa participación de todos los integrantes de la comunidad universitaria. Donde ninguno de ellos escapa a obligaciones y derechos concernientes a sus responsabilidades al momento de ejecutar tareas que deben haber sido planificadas cuidadosamente y reunidas en actividades, convertidas en valores económicos, sociales y humanos que requieren de recursos presupuestarios, los que a su vez deben ser acordados por todos los actores intervinientes en dicho proceso. Finalmente los roles que dichos actores actúan en el sistema presupestario de la universidad permite clarificar y transparentar la discusión presupuestaria, su ejecución y el control pertinente

    Effect of the alcoholic strength of unaged wine distillates on the final composition of Brandy de Jerez aged in Sherry Casks®

    Brandy is a spirit obtained from distilled wine that has an alcohol content equal to or greater than 36 % ABV (Alcohol by Volume). It undergoes an ageing process in oak wood casks with a capacity of up to 1000 L for a minimum of six months. During this process, a series of physicochemical and sensory changes take place that confer the initial wine distillate with a series of improvements to its sensory profile. Such changes are mainly determined by the intrinsic characteristics of the wood and by those associated with the manufacturing process of the casks. The previous use of the casks, ageing time and the alcoholic strength of the wine distillate are also important factors, among others. The casks, which will have previously contained some type of Sherry wine (such as Fino, Amontillado, Oloroso and Pedro Ximénez), are known as Sherry Casks® and they must be used in the production of Brandy de Jerez. During the ageing of Brandy de Jerez, Sherry Casks® contribute to the final brandy via the compounds that are both inherent to the wood they are made of and from the wine that they initially contained and that were retained in the wood pores. The alcohol content of the wine distillate to be aged significantly affects not only the quality of the brandy, but also the financial cost of the process. This study aimed to determine the influence on brandy of the alcoholic strength of wine distillates aged in static ageing systems using Sherry Casks®. Specifically, we assessed the physicochemical composition and sensory profile of Brandy de Jerez made from wine distillates with three different alcoholic strengths (40 %, 55 % and 68 % ABV) and aged for 24 months. The Brandy de Jerez with lower alcoholic strengths (40 % - 55 % ABV) were found to contain a higher concentration of polyphenolic compounds deriving from the wood as well as from the constituents of the cask-seasoning Sherry wine. The brandies with higher alcoholic strengths exhibited a marked colour change, while the 40 % and 55 % ABV brandies were perceived to have the best sensory characteristics

    Background: Short-term treatment for people with type 2 diabetes using a low dose of the selective endothelin A receptor antagonist atrasentan reduces albuminuria without causing significant sodium retention. We report the long-term effects of treatment with atrasentan on major renal outcomes. Methods: We did this double-blind, randomised, placebo-controlled trial at 689 sites in 41 countries. We enrolled adults aged 18–85 years with type 2 diabetes, estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR)25–75 mL/min per 1·73 m 2 of body surface area, and a urine albumin-to-creatinine ratio (UACR)of 300–5000 mg/g who had received maximum labelled or tolerated renin–angiotensin system inhibition for at least 4 weeks. Participants were given atrasentan 0·75 mg orally daily during an enrichment period before random group assignment. Those with a UACR decrease of at least 30% with no substantial fluid retention during the enrichment period (responders)were included in the double-blind treatment period. Responders were randomly assigned to receive either atrasentan 0·75 mg orally daily or placebo. All patients and investigators were masked to treatment assignment. The primary endpoint was a composite of doubling of serum creatinine (sustained for ≥30 days)or end-stage kidney disease (eGFR <15 mL/min per 1·73 m 2 sustained for ≥90 days, chronic dialysis for ≥90 days, kidney transplantation, or death from kidney failure)in the intention-to-treat population of all responders. Safety was assessed in all patients who received at least one dose of their assigned study treatment. The study is registered with ClinicalTrials.gov, number NCT01858532. Findings: Between May 17, 2013, and July 13, 2017, 11 087 patients were screened; 5117 entered the enrichment period, and 4711 completed the enrichment period. Of these, 2648 patients were responders and were randomly assigned to the atrasentan group (n=1325)or placebo group (n=1323). Median follow-up was 2·2 years (IQR 1·4–2·9). 79 (6·0%)of 1325 patients in the atrasentan group and 105 (7·9%)of 1323 in the placebo group had a primary composite renal endpoint event (hazard ratio [HR]0·65 [95% CI 0·49–0·88]; p=0·0047). Fluid retention and anaemia adverse events, which have been previously attributed to endothelin receptor antagonists, were more frequent in the atrasentan group than in the placebo group. Hospital admission for heart failure occurred in 47 (3·5%)of 1325 patients in the atrasentan group and 34 (2·6%)of 1323 patients in the placebo group (HR 1·33 [95% CI 0·85–2·07]; p=0·208). 58 (4·4%)patients in the atrasentan group and 52 (3·9%)in the placebo group died (HR 1·09 [95% CI 0·75–1·59]; p=0·65). Interpretation: Atrasentan reduced the risk of renal events in patients with diabetes and chronic kidney disease who were selected to optimise efficacy and safety. These data support a potential role for selective endothelin receptor antagonists in protecting renal function in patients with type 2 diabetes at high risk of developing end-stage kidney disease.

    A través de la historia el ser humano se ha preocupado por satisfacer sus necesidades básicas, además de extender sus dominios consiguiendo poder obtener una forma de lograrlo, sin lugar a dudas es el de contar con bienes materiales y económicos, los cuales están estrechamente relacionados con la moneda como forma de pago, aunque al principio de los tiempos esto se realizaba por medio de trueques de mercancías o productos, luego, con la aparición del dinero, los cambios se facilitaron ya que se pagaba realmente por el valor de un bien. De manera que el tiempo ha ido transcurriendo se han generado nuevas formas de pago desde la moneda hecha de metal, hasta la aparición de dinero electrónico. Además de que todas las áreas de estudio están influenciadas por este factor (dinero). Y cuando hablamos del dinero a cambio de alguna mercancía o producto es inevitable caer en el término “Precio” y la rama de la ingeniería civil no está exenta de esta problemática ya que el creciente desarrollo de los países ha generado mayor demanda de construcciones en cada uno de ellos. La presente investigación de tesis, corresponde a: “Precios unitarios y elaboración de las propuestas técnica y económica para licitación de obra pública”. Es indispensable para un Ingeniero Civil comprender que La licitación Públicaes un procedimiento administrativo de preparación de la voluntad contractual, por el que un ente público en ejercicio de la función administrativa invita a los interesados para que, sujetándose al pliego de condiciones (Bases de la licitación), formulen propuestas (Técnica y Económica) de entre las cuales seleccionará la más conveniente (Adjudicación). Cuando es necesario contratar obra pública, existen leyes que obligan a los entes gubernamentales a seguir un proceso legalmente definido por el derecho administrativo. En México, el Artículo 134 Constitucional determina como el gobierno debe realizar las adquisiciones y contratación de obra pública; de esa Ley se deriva la Ley de Adquisiciones, Arrendamiento y Servicios del Sector Público y Ley de Obras Públicas y Servicios relacionados con las mismas
