Caracterización de la atención de urgencia inicial en el sistema de salud en Colombia

Artículo de reflexiónEn el presente artículo se pretende mostrar a la luz del derecho en Colombia, los diferentes factores que regulan y establecen la atención primaria en salud en Colombia. Primero se hace un recorrido por la definición de salud y el estado oculto de la misma a partir de postulados filosóficos, para luego realizar un recorrido histórico frente al proceso de atención de urgencia en diferentes contextos mundiales y en el contexto colombiano como es interés de este documento. Dicha contextualización permite identificar las leyes y normas que regulan la atención en el sistema de salud colombiano y el cumplimiento o no del mismo desde un análisis propuesto en la literatura.Introducción. 1.

Aspectos históricos del conflicto de la Isla del Perejil

Actualmente deshabitada y ya sin valor militar alguno, la isla del Perejil permanecía en un olvido soterrado. España hace tiempo que no hace acto de soberanía sobre ella, aunque formalmente la reconoce como territorio propio; Marruecos no se ha pronunciado expresamente sobre la misma al hablar de los territorios reclamados a España en las sucesivas reclamaciones presentadas ante Naciones Unidas. En la más importante de ellas, la que tuvo lugar el 30 de enero de 1975, Marruecos no mencionó en absoluto a la isla del Perejil, a pesar de que sí lo hizo con Chafarinas, Vélez y Alhucemas, cosa que tampoco había hecho hasta entonces

Challenges through Cultural Heritage in the North-Spanish Rural Musical Underground

This article analyzes musical practices of rurality in Asturias (northern Spain), focusing on these practices as transits beyond rural-urban, local-transnational, and music-life dichotomies. We map out three modes of the production of locality in relation to musical heritage in order to point out a prevalence of the phenomena of "aural friction" (García-Flórez) and "mutuality" (Colón-Montijo) in expressive practices connected to this underground scene in the context of 2008's rise of neo-liberalism. The introduction of these two concepts leads us to point out a correlation between the current transformation of the local and the social that coincides with a general questioning of the multicultural politics of recognition in Spain

Imitadores de ictus: cuando las cosas no son lo que parecen

El ictus es una de las principales enfermedades en el mundo desarrollado. Teniendo en cuenta que el tratamiento fibrinolítico debe ser administrado durante un corto período de tiempo tras el episodio, el ictus constituye una emergencia médica que requiere un diagnóstico acertado precoz. Diversas enfermedades pueden ser difíciles de diferenciar del ictus, estos son los imitadores de ictus, cuya detección reviste especial importancia. En este estudio se ha realizado una revisión bibliográfica literaria acerca de los ictus y sus imitadores, buscando resumir la información de manera accesible y útil para la práctica clínica, ilustrando esta teoría con algunos casos reales. Hemos concluido que una exploración neurológica cuidadosa junto con las pruebas complementarias apropiadas permiten en la inmensa mayoría de las ocasiones obtener un diagnóstico correcto de ictus, reduciendo la confusión, lo cual implica evidentes beneficios de diverso tipo.Grado en Medicin

The plasmid complement of the cheese isolate Lactococcus garvieae IPLA 31405 revealed adaptation to the dairy environment

Lactococcus garvieae is a lactic acid bacterium found in raw-milk dairy products as well as a range of aquatic and terrestrial environments. The plasmids in L. garvieae have received little attention compared to those of dairy Lactococcus lactis, in which the genes carried by these extrachromosomal elements are considered of adaptive value. The present work reports the sequencing and analysis of the plasmid complement of L. garvieae IPLA 31405, a strain isolated from a traditional, Spanish, starter-free cheese made from raw-milk. It consists of pLG9 and pLG42, of 9,124 and 42,240 nucleotides, respectively. Based on sequence and structural homology in the putative origin of replication ( ori) region, pLG9 and pLG42 are predicted to replicate via a theta mechanism. Real-time, quantitative PCR showed the number of copies per chromosome equivalent of pLG9 and pLG42 to be around two and five, respectively. Sequence analysis identified eight complete open reading frames (orfs) in pLG9 and 36 in pLG42; these were organized into functional modules or cassettes containing different numbers of genes. These modules were flanked by complete or interrupted insertion sequence (IS)-like elements. Among the modules of pLG42 was a gene cluster encoding specific components of a phosphoenolpyruvate-phosphotransferase (PEP-PTS) system, including a phospho-β-galacosidase. The cluster showed a complete nucleotide identity respect to that in plasmids of L. lactis. Loss of pLG42 showed this to be involved in lactose assimilation. In the same plasmid, an operon encoding a type I restriction/ modification (R/M) system was also identified. The specificity of this R/M system might be broadened by different R/M specificity subunits detected in pLG9 and in the bacterial chromosome. However, challenges of L. garvieae IPLA 31405 against L. lactis phages proved that the R/M system was not involved in phage resistance. Together, these results support the hypothesis that, as in L. lactis, pLG42 contribute towards the adaptation of L. garvieae to the dairy environment. © 2015 Flórez, Mayo.This research was partially funded by projects from the Spanish Ministry of Economy and Competitiveness (MINECO) (Ref.

Diversity and dynamics of antibiotic-resistant bacteria in cheese as determined by PCR denaturing gradient gel electrophoresis

This work reports the composition and succession of tetracycline- and erythromycin-resistant bacterial communities in a model cheese, monitored by polymerase chain reaction denaturing gradient gel electrophoresis (PCR-DGGE). Bacterial 16S rRNA genes were examined using this technique to detect structural changes in the cheese microbiota over manufacturing and ripening. Total bacterial genomic DNA, used as a template, was extracted from cultivable bacteria grown without and with tetracycline or erythromycin (both at 25 μg ml− 1) on a non-selective medium used for enumeration of total and viable cells (Plate Count agar with Milk; PCA-M), and from those grown on selective and/or differential agar media used for counting various bacterial groups; i.e., lactic acid bacteria (de Man, Rogosa and Sharpe agar; MRSA), micrococci and staphylococci (Baird–Parker agar; BPA), and enterobacteria (Violet Red Bile Glucose agar; VRBGA). Large numbers of tetracycline- and erythromycin-resistant bacteria were detected in cheese samples at all stages of ripening. Counts of antibiotic-resistant bacteria varied widely depending on the microbial group and the point of sampling. In general, resistant bacteria were 0.5–1.0 Log10 units fewer in number than the corresponding susceptible bacteria. The PCR-DGGE profiles obtained with DNA isolated from the plates for total bacteria and the different bacterial groups suggested Escherichia coli, Lactococcus lactis, Enterococcus faecalis and Staphylococcus spp. as the microbial types resistant to both antibiotics tested. This study shows the suitability of the PCR-DGGE technique for rapidly identifying and tracking antibiotic resistant populations in cheese and, by extension, in other foods.The study was partially supported by projects from the Spanish Ministry of Economy and Competitiveness (Ref.
