Software matemático aplicado a la docencia

La publicación del presente manual forma parte de las actividades desarrolladas durante el curso 2009/10 por el grupo de innovación docente (GID) ʺSoftware Matemático Aplicado a la Docencia (SMAD)ʺ financiado en convocatoria competitiva por el Vicerrectorado de Calidad y Formación Continua de la Universidad de Extremadura y coordinado por D. Ignacio Ojeda Martínez de Castilla.El objetivo de este manual es presentar los tutoriales de los programas Octave/MATLAB (cálculo científico y visualización de datos), R (cálculo estadístico y generación de gráficos) y MAXIMA (cálculo simbólico y numérico) y prácticas, tanto en los ficheros pdf como en los ficheros originales TEX, y ponerlas a disposición de la comunidad universitaria, para que aquellos docentes universitarios que puedan necesitarlos tengan acceso a ellas y puedan adaptarlas a sus necesidades.The objective of this manual is to introduce you to the tutorials of the programs Octave/MATLAB (scientific computing and visualization of data), R (statistical calculus and generation of graphics) and MAXIMA (symbolic computation and numerical calculation) and practice in both pdf files as in the original TEX files, and make them available to the university community, so that those academics who may need it have access to them and can adapt it to their needs

Moderately hypofractionated post-operative radiation therapy for breast cancer: Preferences amongst radiation oncologists from countries in Latin America and the Caribbean

Background: The safety and effectiveness of moderately hypofractionated post-operative radiation therapy for breast cancer were demonstrated by several trials. This study aimed to evaluate the current patterns of practice and prescription preference about moderately hypofractionated post-operative radiation therapy to assess possible aspects that affect the decision-making process regarding the use of fractionation in breast cancer patients in Latin America and the Caribbean (LAC). We also aimed to identify factors that can restrain the utilization of moderately hypofractionated post-operative radiation therapy for breast cancer. Materials an methods: Radiation oncologists from LAC were invited to contribute to this study. A 38-question survey was used to evaluate their opinions. Results: A total of 173 radiation oncologists from 13 countries answered the questionnaire. The majority of respondents (84.9%) preferred moderately hypofractionated post-operative radiation therapy as their first choice in cases of whole breast irradiation. Whole breast plus regional nodal irradiation, post-mastectomy (chest wall and regional nodal irradiation) without reconstruction, and post-mastectomy (chest wall and regional node irradiation) with reconstruction hypofractionated post-operative radiation therapy was preferred by 72.2% 71.1%, and 53.7% of respondents, respectively. Breast cancer stage, and flap-based breast reconstruction were the factors associated with absolute contraindications for the use of hypofractionated schedules. Conclusion: Even though moderately hypofractionated post-operative radiation therapy for breast cancer is considered a new standard to the vast majority of the patients, its unrestricted application in clinical practice across LAC still faces reluctance
