Prevalence of attention deficit hyperactivity disorder in boys and girls with mental retardation from Bucaramanga, Colombia

En niños y niñas con retraso mental (RM) son frecuentes los síntomas de desatención, hiperactividad e impulsividad. Sin embargo, no se conoce la prevalencia de trastorno por déficit de atención e hiperactividad (TDAH) en niños y niñas con RM. Objetivo: Determinar la prevalencia TDAH en pacientes con RM de consulta externa de un hospital psiquiátrico de Bucaramanga. Métodos: Estudio descriptivo. Se incluyeron pacientes entre 6 y 12 años con RM (coeficiente intelectual inferior a 70). Para identificar TDAH se realizó una entrevista semiestructurada según los criterios del DSM-IV para TDAH. Resultados: Fueron evaluados 34 pacientes. El 58.8% varones. El 53% correspondían a RM leve y el 47% a RM moderado. 19 (55.9%) pacientes presentaban TDAH, independiente del sexo y de la severidad del RM. Conclusiones: El TDAH es muy frecuente en niños y niñas con RM y se encuentra con igual frecuencia en niños y niñas con RM leve y moderado.

El propósito permanente de mejorar el servicio educativo que ofrecemos como muestra del compromiso que tenemos con nuestros estudiantes, familias Caldistas y con la ciudadanía, nos llevó a realizar desde octubre del 2007 un trabajo que culmina con el plan de desarrollo estratégico, y que nos permite llevar a cabo nuestro objetivo central de “Contribuir a la construcción de un mundo mejor propiciando una cultura de desarrollo integral y sostenible de la comunidad educativa en su ser individual y social, que se evidencie en el ejercicio de una autonomía responsable consigo mismo y con su entorno. Nos hemos propuesto además el reto de estar dentro de los tres colegios con mayor demanda en el área metropolitana de Bucaramanga por la formación de bachilleres bilingües, distinguidos por sus calidades morales e intelectuales y con los más altos desempeños en todas las áreas del desarrollo.Plan de desarrollo Bucaramanga, un aula abierta.

NEOTROPICAL CARNIVORES: a data set on carnivore distribution in the Neotropics

Mammalian carnivores are considered a key group in maintaining ecological health and can indicate potential ecological integrity in landscapes where they occur. Carnivores also hold high conservation value and their habitat requirements can guide management and conservation plans. The order Carnivora has 84 species from 8 families in the Neotropical region: Canidae; Felidae; Mephitidae; Mustelidae; Otariidae; Phocidae; Procyonidae; and Ursidae. Herein, we include published and unpublished data on native terrestrial Neotropical carnivores (Canidae; Felidae; Mephitidae; Mustelidae; Procyonidae; and Ursidae). NEOTROPICAL CARNIVORES is a publicly available data set that includes 99,605 data entries from 35,511 unique georeferenced coordinates. Detection/non-detection and quantitative data were obtained from 1818 to 2018 by researchers, governmental agencies, non-governmental organizations, and private consultants. Data were collected using several methods including camera trapping, museum collections, roadkill, line transect, and opportunistic records. Literature (peer-reviewed and grey literature) from Portuguese, Spanish and English were incorporated in this compilation. Most of the data set consists of detection data entries (n = 79,343; 79.7%) but also includes non-detection data (n = 20,262; 20.3%). Of those, 43.3% also include count data (n = 43,151). The information available in NEOTROPICAL CARNIVORES will contribute to macroecological, ecological, and conservation questions in multiple spatio-temporal perspectives. As carnivores play key roles in trophic interactions, a better understanding of their distribution and habitat requirements are essential to establish conservation management plans and safeguard the future ecological health of Neotropical ecosystems. Our data paper, combined with other large-scale data sets, has great potential to clarify species distribution and related ecological processes within the Neotropics. There are no copyright restrictions and no restriction for using data from this data paper, as long as the data paper is cited as the source of the information used.

NEOTROPICAL ALIEN MAMMALS: a data set of occurrence and abundance of alien mammals in the Neotropics

Biological invasion is one of the main threats to native biodiversity. For a species to become invasive, it must be voluntarily or involuntarily introduced by humans into a nonnative habitat. Mammals were among first taxa to be introduced worldwide for game, meat, and labor, yet the number of species introduced in the Neotropics remains unknown. In this data set, we make available occurrence and abundance data on mammal species that (1) transposed a geographical barrier and (2) were voluntarily or involuntarily introduced by humans into the Neotropics. Our data set is composed of 73,738 historical and current georeferenced records on alien mammal species of which around 96% correspond to occurrence data on 77 species belonging to eight orders and 26 families. Data cover 26 continental countries in the Neotropics, ranging from Mexico and its frontier regions (southern Florida and coastal-central Florida in the southeast United States) to Argentina, Paraguay, Chile, and Uruguay, and the 13 countries of Caribbean islands. Our data set also includes neotropical species (e.g., Callithrix sp., Myocastor coypus, Nasua nasua) considered alien in particular areas of Neotropics. The most numerous species in terms of records are from Bos sp. (n = 37,782), Sus scrofa (n = 6,730), and Canis familiaris (n = 10,084); 17 species were represented by only one record (e.g., Syncerus caffer, Cervus timorensis, Cervus unicolor, Canis latrans). Primates have the highest number of species in the data set (n = 20 species), partly because of uncertainties regarding taxonomic identification of the genera Callithrix, which includes the species Callithrix aurita, Callithrix flaviceps, Callithrix geoffroyi, Callithrix jacchus, Callithrix kuhlii, Callithrix penicillata, and their hybrids. This unique data set will be a valuable source of information on invasion risk assessments, biodiversity redistribution and conservation-related research. There are no copyright restrictions.
