    This review article elaborates a current state of Dance theatre in the last decade. It is part of a holistic research on the relevance of the curriculum deepening in Dance Theatre, of the Dance Art curriculum project, at the Universidad Distrital Francisco José de Caldas in Bogotá. The research included graduate work, thesis, indexed journals , books and institutional documentation. A documentary analysis was carried out, from an analytical-interpretive matrix in which Kurt Joss, Pina Bausch, Isadora Duncan, Ruth Saint Denis, Rudolf Laban, Constanin Stanislavsky, Jerzy Grotowsky, Antonin Artaud, Eugenio Barba, Patricia Cardona and Juliana Reyes are some of the references cited in a selection of 55 records of more than 200 reviewed. The article has four main parts: the own, the local, Latin America and the global sphere, overcoming disciplinary gender distinctions and installing a discussion on theatricality as a transversal agent to the arts. It concludes with the hybrid character of the genre and the need to continue investigating the relationship between dance and theatre.Este artículo de revisión elabora un estado actual de la Danza teatro en la última década.

    Nighttime fasting has been inconclusively associated with a reduced risk of cancer. The purpose of this study was to investigate this association in relation to prostate cancer risk. We examined data from 607 prostate cancer cases and 848 population controls who had never worked in night shift work from the Spanish multicase-control (MCC) study, 2008-2013. Through an interview, we collected circadian information on meal timing at mid-age. We estimated odds ratios (OR) and 95% confidence intervals (CI) with unconditional logistic regression. After controlling for time of breakfast, fasting for more than 11 h overnight (the median duration among controls) was associated with a reduced risk of prostate cancer compared to those fasting for 11 h or less (OR = 0.77, 95% 0.54-1.07). Combining a long nighttime fasting and an early breakfast was associated with a lower risk of prostate cancer compared to a short nighttime fasting and a late breakfast (OR = 0.54, 95% CI 0.27-1.04). This study suggests that a prolonged nighttime fasting duration and an early breakfast may be associated with a lower risk of prostate cancer. Findings should be interpreted cautiously and add to growing evidence on the importance of chrononutrition in relation to cancer risk.Funding: Instituto de Salud Carlos III FIS PI11/01889.

    Circadian nutritional behaviors, defined by the daily eating/fasting cycle, have been linked with breast cancer. This study aimed to further disentangle the association of nighttime fasting duration and time of breakfast with breast cancer risk. We analyzed data from 1,181 breast cancer cases and 1,326 population controls from the Spanish multicase-control study (MCC-Spain), 2008-2013. We collected circadian nutritional behaviors at mid-age via a telephonic interview. We applied logistic regression to estimate odds ratios (OR) and 95% confidence intervals (CIs) for the association of nighttime fasting duration and time of breakfast with breast cancer risk in all women and stratified by menopausal status. Models were adjusted for age, center, education, family history of breast cancer, age at menarche, number of children, breastfeeding, age at first child, body mass index (BMI), contraceptive use, and hormonal replacement therapy (HRT). A later time of breakfast was associated with a non-significant increased risk of breast cancer (OR = 1.05, 95% CI: 0.95-1.16, per hour increase). This association was stronger among premenopausal women, among whom each hour later, the time of breakfast was associated with an 18% increase in breast cancer risk (OR = 1.18, 95% CI: 1.01-1.40). The association was not observed in postmenopausal women. We did not observe an association between nighttime fasting duration and breast cancer risk after adjusting for the time of breakfast. In this study, late breakfast was associated with increased breast cancer risk, especially among premenopausal women, compared with early breakfast. Aside from nutritional quality, circadian nutritional behaviors should be further studied in relation to cancer

    Use of artificial sweeteners (AS) such as aspartame, cyclamate, saccharin and sucralose is widespread. We evaluated the association of use of aspartame and other AS with cancer. In total 1881 colorectal, 1510 breast, 972 prostate and 351 stomach cancer and 109 chronic lymphocytic leukaemia (CLL) cases and 3629 population controls from the Spanish Multicase-Control (MCC-Spain) study were recruited (2008-2013). The consumption of AS, from table-top sweeteners and artificially sweetened beverages, was assessed through a self-administered and validated food frequency questionnaire (FFQ). Sex-specific quartiles among controls were determined to compare moderate consumers ( third quartile) vs non consumers (reference category), distinguishing aspartame-containing products and other AS. Unconditional logistic regression models were used to estimate adjusted OR and 95%CI, and results were stratified by diabetes status. Overall, we found no associations between the consumption of aspartame or other AS and cancer. Among participants with diabetes, high consumption of other AS was associated with colorectal cancer (OR=1.58, 95% CI 1.05-2.41, P trend=.03) and stomach cancer (OR=2.27 [0.99-5.44], P trend=.06). High consumption of aspartame, was associated with stomach cancer (OR=2.04 [0.7-5.4], P trend=.05), while a lower risk was observed for breast cancer (OR=0.28 [0.08-0.83], P trend=.03). In some cancers, the number of cases in participants with diabetes were small and results should be interpreted cautiously. We did not find associations between use of AS and cancer, but found associations between high consumption of aspartame and other AS and different cancer types among participants with diabetes

    Familial hypercholesterolemia : review article

    Get PDF
    La hipercolesterolemia familiar (HF) es una alteración de origen genético que clínicamente se puede manifestar desde el nacimiento y que se caracteriza por niveles plasmáticos anormalmente altos de colesterol LDL (cLDL) y por una elevada tasa de morbimortalidad cardiovascular prematura. Tiene dos formas de presentación: la HF heterocigótica (HFHe) y la HF homocigótica (HFHo); esta última más severa y de aparición clínica en los primeros años de vida. Históricamente, la prevalencia para la HFHe es de un caso en 500 personas y para la HFHo de un caso por cada millón de personas; sin embargo, los datos reales probablemente son superiores porque hay evidencia de que ambas condiciones están subdiagnosticadas. La terapia recomendada, además de los cambios en el estilo de vida, son las estatinas; sin embargo, con estos fármacos es difícil lograr en muchos casos reducciones aceptables del cLDL, por lo que se requiere asociar otras modalidades terapéuticas, algunas de ellas recientemente aprobadas. Dado que en Colombia no se ha publicado ningún documento de revisión sobre HF, la Sociedad Colombiana de Cardiología y Cirugía Cardiovascular convocó a diferentes especialidades de la medicina para elaborar un documento sobre el tema, que resumiera, de manera práctica y actualizada, aspectos clínicos, genéticos, diagnósticos y de tratamiento.Q44-26Familial hypercholesterolemia (FH) is a genetic disorder that may clinically manifest since birth and is characterized by abnormally high plasma LDL cholesterol (LDLc) levels and a high early cardiovascular morbidity and mortality rate. FH has two presentation forms: heterozygous FH (HeFH) and homozygous FH (HoFH), the latter being more severe and with a clinical onset during the first few years of life. Historically, HeFH prevalence is of 1:500 and HoFH of 1:1 million; however, real data are probably higher because evidence indicated that both conditions are underdiagnosed. Recommended therapy, besides lifestyle changes, are statins; nevertheless, these drugs make it difficult in many cases to achieve reasonable cLDL reductions, therefore an association with other therapeutic models, some of which have recently been approved, is required. Since no review papers have been published in Colombia regarding FH, the Colombian Cardiology and Cardiovascular Surgery Society invited several medical specialties to draft a document on the subject that would sum up, in a practical and updated way, clinical, genetics, diagnostics and therapeutic aspects

    La aportación actual no entra en analizar aspectos generales de la pandemia (naturaleza, origen, extensión general y en el país, etc.) o de otras situaciones que se derivan del confinamiento, por considerar que son suficientemente conocidos. Tampoco pretende realizar una recensión de informes sobre la temática elaborados por organismos como la UNESCO-IESALC, el Banco Mundial, el BID o la CRUE y revisar las aportaciones de investigadores de la temática. Más bien trata de aportar concreciones y dimensiones prácticas de la Educación Superior de cada país que puedan ayudar en los aspectos de organización y gestión de estas instituciones. En este sentido considera aspectos referidos a: (1) Desarrollo de las enseñanzas: alteraciones en la duración y estructura de los títulos; modificaciones de objetivos, metodologías y sistemas de evaluación; atención a colectivos vulnerables; etc.(2) Organización institucional: atención a las personas (gestión del alumnado, profesorado y personal de administración y servicios, rol de los directivos, etc.); infraestructuras; desarrollo de procesos (matriculación, gestión administrativa y económica, etc.); y resultados (académicos como tasa de aprobados, nivel de abandono u otros; y no académicos). (3) Vinculación con el entorno: actuaciones de y con la comunidad o colaboraciones significativas. Incluye el escrito de cada país con referencias y reflexiones sobre los anteriores aspectos, así como algunas experiencias de interés y, por último, reflexiones, valoraciones y retos sobre la gestión en los momentos de confinamiento y reapertura, con la idea de identificar aprendizajes significativos y orientaciones de cara a la actuación en la situación actual y similares que se puedan producir en el futuro. Las diferentes aportaciones se centran en la enseñanza universitaria, incluyendo los estudios superiores, que en muchos países tienen gran importancia y desarrollo, y tratan de proporcionar una visión general de los diferentes países sin obviar descender a las particularidades concretas que exigen el identificar buenas prácticas o medidas específicas de organización y desarrollo de la formación. Hablamos del trabajo de 41 especialistas de 13países iberoamericanos que permiten conocer y analizar las actuaciones por países, pero también realizar un estudio de las iniciativas que se han tomado en todos los países considerando algunos de los tópicos que considera el Informe. En todo caso, cabe destacar la actualidad y trascendencia del tema y la rapidez por trasladar a la sociedad un Informe detallado sobre las actuaciones universitarias existentes y sus resultados

    BACKGROUND Type 2 diabetes mellitus is the leading cause of kidney failure worldwide, but few effective long-term treatments are available. In cardiovascular trials of inhibitors of sodium–glucose cotransporter 2 (SGLT2), exploratory results have suggested that such drugs may improve renal outcomes in patients with type 2 diabetes. METHODS In this double-blind, randomized trial, we assigned patients with type 2 diabetes and albuminuric chronic kidney disease to receive canagliflozin, an oral SGLT2 inhibitor, at a dose of 100 mg daily or placebo. All the patients had an estimated glomerular filtration rate (GFR) of 30 to <90 ml per minute per 1.73 m2 of body-surface area and albuminuria (ratio of albumin [mg] to creatinine [g], >300 to 5000) and were treated with renin–angiotensin system blockade. The primary outcome was a composite of end-stage kidney disease (dialysis, transplantation, or a sustained estimated GFR of <15 ml per minute per 1.73 m2), a doubling of the serum creatinine level, or death from renal or cardiovascular causes. Prespecified secondary outcomes were tested hierarchically. RESULTS The trial was stopped early after a planned interim analysis on the recommendation of the data and safety monitoring committee. At that time, 4401 patients had undergone randomization, with a median follow-up of 2.62 years. The relative risk of the primary outcome was 30% lower in the canagliflozin group than in the placebo group, with event rates of 43.2 and 61.2 per 1000 patient-years, respectively (hazard ratio, 0.70; 95% confidence interval [CI], 0.59 to 0.82; P=0.00001). The relative risk of the renal-specific composite of end-stage kidney disease, a doubling of the creatinine level, or death from renal causes was lower by 34% (hazard ratio, 0.66; 95% CI, 0.53 to 0.81; P<0.001), and the relative risk of end-stage kidney disease was lower by 32% (hazard ratio, 0.68; 95% CI, 0.54 to 0.86; P=0.002). The canagliflozin group also had a lower risk of cardiovascular death, myocardial infarction, or stroke (hazard ratio, 0.80; 95% CI, 0.67 to 0.95; P=0.01) and hospitalization for heart failure (hazard ratio, 0.61; 95% CI, 0.47 to 0.80; P<0.001). There were no significant differences in rates of amputation or fracture. CONCLUSIONS In patients with type 2 diabetes and kidney disease, the risk of kidney failure and cardiovascular events was lower in the canagliflozin group than in the placebo group at a median follow-up of 2.62 years

    26 páginas.Esta investigación tiene como fin determinar las deficiencias en la firma de auditoría y revisoría fiscal en el caso INTERBOLSA mediante una metodología descriptiva, basándonos en la recolección de información en diferentes escenarios para dar respuesta a los objetivos planteados. Una de la funciones principales la revisoría fiscal es advertir los riesgos a que el cliente puede estar expuesto en el desarrollo de su objeto social, por esta razón la revisoría fallo al pasar por alto irregularidades en las operaciones que se realizaban en la compañía, situaciones que debieron ser detectadas e informadas por la Grant Thornton. En este caso pudo ser que el personal que designaron para revisar o auditar a Interbolsa no tenían un conocimiento especializado y detallado de cómo funcionaba el negocio y, por lo tanto, se pudo dar que se hiciera caso omiso las actuaciones y transacciones realizadas. De acuerdo a nuestro interrogante podemos determinar que las principales deficiencias fueron negligencia y omisión frente a situaciones como el riesgo de iliquidez y falta de control pertinente.The purpose of this research is to determine the deficiencies in the audit firm and fiscal review in the INTERBOLSA case by means of a descriptive methodology, based on the collection of information in different scenarios to respond to the objectives set. One of the main functions of the tax auditor is to warn the risks that the client may be exposed in the development of its corporate purpose, for this reason the reviewer fails to overlook irregularities in the operations carried out in the company, situations which should have been detected and reported by Grant Thornton. In this case, it was possible that the staff that designated to review or audit an Interbolsa did not have a specialized and detailed knowledge of how the business operated and, therefore, could be made known the actions and transactions carried out. According to our question we can determine that the main deficiencies were neglect and omission in the face of situations such as the risk of illiquidity and lack of relevant control
