40 páginasRESUMEN: El Dulce Hogar es una entidad sin ánimo de lucro, que fue fundada inicialmente con el fin de ayudar a los niños desnutridos de San Cristóbal. Estos niños vienen de familias de escasos recursos, que no tienen como alimentar a sus hijos, hasta que se desnutren y requieren de ayuda medica para poder mejorarse. La ayuda se extendió a los padres o acudientes de los niños con cursos, charlas y enseñanzas para poder salir adelante y poder sostener a sus familias. La fundación para poder brindar esta ayuda, cuenta con el apoyo de beneficiarios que brindan recursos económicos e intelectuales para hacer una labor integral y completa, para que en ningún momento se le pueda negar la ayuda a un niño enfermo. Adicionalmente cuenta con personal capacitado en las áreas de nutrición, psicología y trabajo social que hacen que los tratamientos aplicados tengan un buen resultado. La fundación está en una constante búsqueda de mejorar y para esto cuenta con al asesoría de estudiantes y personas voluntarias. Una de esas mejoras es en el tema del manejo de la información, en donde se pretende dar un buen manejo a esta para así obtener mejores resultados en el seguimiento del desempeño de la fundación.ABSTRACT: El Dulce Hogar is an organization that was founded to help the kids of San Cristobel that suffer from malnutrition.

One of these researches is done in the area of information and all its management, where the objective is to get the maximum from it, and use it to get better results in the following duties and performance on the organization.PregradoIngeniero(a) Administrativo(a

Early-life nutrition influences thymic growth in male mice that may be related to the regulation of longevity

International audienceNutrition and growth rate during early life can influence later health and lifespan. We previously demonstrated that low birth weight resulting from maternal protein restriction during pregnancy followed by catch-up growth in rodents was associated with shortened lifespan whereas protein restriction and slow growth during lactation increased lifespan. The underlying mechanisms by which these differences arise are unknown. Here we report that maternal protein restriction in mice influences thymic growth in early adult life. Offspring of dams fed a low protein diet during lactation (PLP offspring) showed significant thymic growth from 21 days to 12 weeks of age whereas this was not observed in control mice or offspring of dams fed a low protein diet during pregnancy (recuperated offspring). PCNA and SIRT1 protein levels at 21 days of age were significantly higher in thymus from both PLP (P < 0.001 and P < 0.05 respectively) and recuperated mice (P < 0.001 and P < 0.01 respectively) compared to controls. At 12 weeks PLP maintained a higher SIRT1 level whereas PCNA was decreased in thymus from recuperated offspring. This suggests that mitotic activity was initially enhanced in thymus of both PLP and recuperated offspring but remained sustained into adulthood only in PLP mice. The differential mitotic activity in thymus of PLP and recuperated animals appeared to be influenced by changes in sex hormone concentrations and expression of p53, p16, the androgen receptor, IL-7 and the IL-7 receptor. The differential thymic growth may contribute to the regulation of longevity by maternal diet
