    A Quali-quantitative evaluation approach to pedodiversity by multivariate analysis: introduction to the concept of "pedocharacter"

    A model has been developed for the interpretation of the complexity of pedological systems; this is referred to as “pedocharacter”. The main aim of the model was to reduce the variables able to define soils and their relationships with the environment through the following quali-quantitative approach: i) definition of a fair number of qualitative characters; and ii) development of an analytic function, defined as “Land Relevance of the Factor”

    Pedotechniques strategies to improve soil resilience against the impact of irrigation by municipal wastewater: using zeolitized tuffs as soil amendments

    Get PDF
    A research was started aiming at evaluating the possible use of natural zeolites as exchange conditioners to improve and make durable the soil resilience against the adverse effects of the use of anomalous wastewater, for irrigation purposes. To satisfy such aims, two zeolitized tuffs (ZTs), viz. a Neapolitan yellow tuff (NYT) and a clinoptilolite bearing tuff (ZCL), were tested as pedotechnical materials to improve soil resilience against the impact of treatment by a ‘dirty’ municipal wastewater (DMW)

    Prevalencia y factores asociados a fracturas de Radio Distal, en pacientes adultos hospitalizados en el Servicio de Traumatología del Hospital II Essalud Vitarte, de Setiembre a Diciembre del 2019

    El problema principal se encuentra, así, en la falta de información de data estadística actual y exacta sobre las fracturas de radio distal en Ate-Lima, que permitan empezar con acciones preventivas y medidas de control, pese que a nivel mundial este genera perjuicios en un porcentaje significativo de población, sobre todo, adultos. Revisando los estadígrafos del Ministerio de Salud, no encontré datos que me indiquen cuál es el predominio actual de las fracturas de radio distal en Ate, motivo por el cual, se realiza este estudio de prevalencia y factores vinculados a ella en un centro de salud de este distrito
