    Universidad y sociedad. Innovación social desde la universidad

    “Nuestras universidades deben ir mucho más allá: a las obligaciones con el espacio nación donde directivos, profesores, estudiantes y egresados seamos capaces de comprometernos con el futuro de nuestra sociedad, entregándolo todo en el presente. Es decir, que jamás tengamos que decir: “Todo está ya dicho y llegamos demasiado tarde”, sino, más bien, debemos luchar por darle un impulso al optimismo y afirmar con Gilberto de Tournai: “Nunca encontraremos la verdad si nos contentamos con lo que ya se ha hallado […] Los que escribieron antes que nosotros no son para nosotros señores sino que son guías. La verdad está abierta a todos y todavía no ha sido poseída por entero”. Debemos levantarnos en los hombros de quienes nos han precedido en la tarea de formar y educar para poder ver mucho más lejos. La transformación de la universidad debe comenzar por hacer de la búsqueda y transmisión del saber un medio de emancipación mediante el disfrute colectivo del progreso y de la calidad de vida individual y social. Los trabajos que se publican en este volumen son tan notables: la interdisciplinariedad, los procesos de innovación, el emprendimiento, la participación social en procesos productivos, la protección de sujetos especiales, pues se enmarcan en la idea de lograr una cooperación social entre diferentes actores con el fin de reequilibrar un orden injusto. Son este tipo de reflexiones las que deberían invadir los planes de estudio que siguen orientándose a impartir conocimientos, en vez de presentar problemas alrededor del cual se debe empezar a articular la formación de una universidad comprometida con la sociedad”

    GWAS Meta-Analysis of Suicide Attempt: Identification of 12 Genome-Wide Significant Loci and Implication of Genetic Risks for Specific Health Factors

    Objective: Suicidal behavior is heritable and is a major cause of death worldwide. Two large-scale genome-wide association studies (GWASs) recently discovered and crossvalidated genome-wide significant (GWS) loci for suicide attempt (SA). The present study leveraged the genetic cohorts from both studies to conduct the largest GWAS metaanalysis of SA to date. Multi-ancestry and admixture-specific meta-analyses were conducted within groups of significant African, East Asian, and European ancestry admixtures. Methods: This study comprised 22 cohorts, including 43,871 SA cases and 915,025 ancestry-matched controls. Analytical methods across multi-ancestry and individual ancestry admixtures included inverse variance-weighted fixed-effects meta-analyses, followed by gene, gene-set, tissue-set, and drug-target enrichment, as well as summary-data-based Mendelian randomization with brain expression quantitative trait loci data, phenome-wide genetic correlation, and genetic causal proportion analyses. Results: Multi-ancestry and European ancestry admixture GWAS meta-analyses identified 12 risk loci at p values &lt;5×10-8. These loci were mostly intergenic and implicated DRD2, SLC6A9, FURIN, NLGN1, SOX5, PDE4B, and CACNG2. The multi-ancestry SNP-based heritability estimate of SA was 5.7% on the liability scale (SE=0.003, p=5.7×10-80). Significant brain tissue gene expression and drug set enrichment were observed. There was shared genetic variation of SA with attention deficit hyperactivity disorder, smoking, and risk tolerance after conditioning SA on both major depressive disorder and posttraumatic stress disorder. Genetic causal proportion analyses implicated shared genetic risk for specific health factors. Conclusions: This multi-ancestry analysis of suicide attempt identified several loci contributing to risk and establishes significant shared genetic covariation with clinical phenotypes. These findings provide insight into genetic factors associated with suicide attempt across ancestry admixture populations, in veteran and civilian populations, and in attempt versus death.</p

    Dissecting the Shared Genetic Architecture of Suicide Attempt, Psychiatric Disorders, and Known Risk Factors

    Background Suicide is a leading cause of death worldwide, and nonfatal suicide attempts, which occur far more frequently, are a major source of disability and social and economic burden. Both have substantial genetic etiology, which is partially shared and partially distinct from that of related psychiatric disorders. Methods We conducted a genome-wide association study (GWAS) of 29,782 suicide attempt (SA) cases and 519,961 controls in the International Suicide Genetics Consortium (ISGC). The GWAS of SA was conditioned on psychiatric disorders using GWAS summary statistics via multitrait-based conditional and joint analysis, to remove genetic effects on SA mediated by psychiatric disorders. We investigated the shared and divergent genetic architectures of SA, psychiatric disorders, and other known risk factors. Results Two loci reached genome-wide significance for SA: the major histocompatibility complex and an intergenic locus on chromosome 7, the latter of which remained associated with SA after conditioning on psychiatric disorders and replicated in an independent cohort from the Million Veteran Program. This locus has been implicated in risk-taking behavior, smoking, and insomnia. SA showed strong genetic correlation with psychiatric disorders, particularly major depression, and also with smoking, pain, risk-taking behavior, sleep disturbances, lower educational attainment, reproductive traits, lower socioeconomic status, and poorer general health. After conditioning on psychiatric disorders, the genetic correlations between SA and psychiatric disorders decreased, whereas those with nonpsychiatric traits remained largely unchanged. Conclusions Our results identify a risk locus that contributes more strongly to SA than other phenotypes and suggest a shared underlying biology between SA and known risk factors that is not mediated by psychiatric disorders.Peer reviewe

    Análise e interpretação dos dados: contribuições da informação quantitativa aos estudos sociais

    In most social studies, the researcher collects qualitative and quantitative data, but often overlooks the use of scientific, mathematical, geometric, or statistical tools to analyze, deepen and correlate information that provides knowledge supported by figures and gives scientific rigor to the result of the investigation of a phenomenon. Therefore, this article addresses the problem of data and its capacity to analyze and interpret events, beyond mere systematization in social studies. It shows how obtaining and storing information in a situation is part of a cycle, from identifying elements, establishing categories, visualizing graphs and mapping, to defining trends or behaviors in order to design, plan or make decisions based on the results. The objective is to explain the meaning and presence of numbers in social analysis.En la mayoría de los estudios sociales el investigador recopila datos cualitativos y cuantitativos, pero suele pasar por alto utilizar herramientas científicas, matemáticas, geométricas o estadísticas que permitan analizar, profundizar y correlacionar información que aporte conocimiento sustentado en cifras y otorgue rigurosidad científica al resultado de la investigación de un fenómeno. Por consiguiente, el presente artículo aborda el problema del dato y su capacidad para analizar e interpretar eventos, más allá de la mera sistematización en los estudios sociales. Plantea cómo la obtención y almacenamiento de la información en una situación hace parte de un ciclo, desde identificar elementos, establecer categorías, visualizar gráficos y cartografiar, hasta definir tendencias o comportamientos para diseñar, planear o tomar decisiones basadas en los resultados. El objetivo es explicar el significado y la presencia de los números en los análisis de corte social.Na maioria dos estudos sociais, o pesquisador coleta dados qualitativos e quantitativos, mas muitas vezes negligencia o uso de ferramentas científicas, matemáticas, geométricas ou estatísticas que permitem a análise, o aprofundamento e a correlação de informações que fornecem conhecimentos apoiados por números e dão rigor científico ao resultado da investigação de um fenômeno. Este artigo aborda, portanto, o problema dos dados e sua capacidade de analisar e interpretar eventos, além da mera sistematização em estudos sociais. Mostra como obter e armazenar informações em uma situação é parte de um ciclo, desde identificar elementos, estabelecer categorias, visualizar gráficos e mapeamentos, até definir tendências ou comportamentos para projetar, planejar ou tomar decisões com base nos resultados. O objetivo é explicar o significado e a presença dos números na análise social
