La lógica del desarrollo económico: biblioteca universitaria y clusters industriales
In the context of the knowledge society, it is necessary that university libraries understand that their challenges are correlated with the strategic sectors of national and regional economic development: University, State and Industry. The article seeks to generate an analysis of the relationship between R&D development and economic development, and of the strategic importance of enhancing industrial clusters through the university library as part of the third mission of universities
Ciber-Activismo y elecciones presidenciales en Perú
Cyber-activism had influence in strengthening or support of different political movements and influenced

How to differentially detect potentially risky human papilloma virus strains in the human population?
The human papillomavirus (HPV) represents one of the most common sexually transmitted infections, knowing more than 100 viral types that, in relation to their oncological pathogenesis, are classified into types of high and low oncological risk. Cervical cancer is the second leading cause of death from malignant neoplasms in women.
HPV can often cause warts. Most types of this virus are harmless, but a percentage of them are associated with an increased risk of cancer. These types are born from the genitals and are acquired through sexual contact with an engaged partner. Cervical cancer is the second leading cause of death from malignant neoplasms in women. HPV infection is responsible for various lesions in different areas of the body. Common warts are the most frequent. They consist of whitish papillomatous lesions that can be in any area, oral mucosa, genital mucosa, etc.
Most people infected with the genital human papillomavirus are only carriers. It usually has no symptoms and goes away on its own, without causing serious health problems.
There is no cure for HPV, but there are treatments for the health problems that some types of HPV can cause, such as genital warts and cervical cancer.
Thanks to cytology and histopathology, it can be detected and treated promptly, reducing the impact of this disease. In addition, there are vaccines that promise to reduce this cancer, especially in countries with the highest number of cases.
The virus can remain in the body, even after receiving treatment for genital warts. This means that HPV can still be transmitted to sexual partners, despite not having physical manifestations of it.
This work will present the bases for the differential detection between the riskiest HPV strains: HPV-18 and HPV-16 through their detection using the amazing idea of Kary Mullis: Polymerase Chain Reaction
Fruit Maturity Estimation based on Color Scales
Color is an important parameter used to estimate fruit maturity and optimal harvest time. In this paper a general methodology for estimating fruit maturity based on the development of a color scale is proposed. Maturity estimation is performed by computing of the fruit representative color and its comparison with the colors of the scale.
In experimentation the case of grape maturity estimation based on seed color is presented. The method is simple and eff ective, allowing its application in the real processes.Eje: XII Workshop de Computación gráfica, Imágenes y VisualizaciónRed de Universidades con Carreras de Informática (RedUNCI
BAREFOOT RUNNING PRODUCES CHANGES IN FOOT STRIKE PATTERN AND BILATERAL ASYMMETRIES ONLY AS AN ACUTE EFFECT
This study analyzed changes and bilateral asymmetries in Foot Strike Pattern (FSP). Twenty-eight subjects were divided into Barefoot Group (BFGr) (n=16) and Shod Group (SHGr) (n=12), evaluated before (Baseline) and after running for 20 min at 3.1 m·s−1 (Post 20min Running), and at the end of an 8-week running training protocol (Post 8-week Training). Plantar pressures were obtained to calculate Strike Index (SI). Only condition factor (SHGr/BFGr) resulted in significative effect (F=52.45, p=0.00, ƞ2p =0.67). The number of subjects with Forefoot Strike (FFS) and Midfoot Strike (MFS) was always higher in BFGr than SHGr. This difference was higher in Post 20min Running, where BFGr outperformed SHGr by 46 percentage points. BFGr doubled the percentage of asymmetric subjects in Post 20min Running (25% in Baseline to 50% in 20min Running) and returned to Baseline’s value in Post 8-week Training. The shift of FSP towards MFS or FFS and the increase of asymmetries are immediate adaptations caused by barefoot running. However, a training protocol of 8-weeks does not produce maintenance of these modifications
