Modulation of Pore Shape and Adsorption Selectivity by Ligand Functionalization in a Series of “rob”-like Flexible Metal-Organic Frameworks

We report the synthesis of a new family of four new isoreticular metal–organic frameworks (MOFs) based on Cu–Cu paddle-wheel building units. The four MOFs contain 1D microchannels modulated by chemical functionalisation of a dicarboxylate ligand or the use of different bis-4,40-pyridyl-like connectors behaving as ancillary linkers. A deep analysis of their CO2, H2 and CH4 adsorption properties, combining both experimental and grand canonical Monte Carlo isotherms as well as in situ synchrotron X-ray diffraction, shows variable adsorption behaviour towards the studied gases, with some materials acting as molecular sieves with virtually infinite selectivity.This work was supported by the Junta de Andalucía (FQM-1484), Red Guipuzcoana de Ciencia, Tecnolgía e Innovación (OF188/2017) and University of the Basque Country (GIU14/01, GIU17/013, EHUA16/32).

Diseño de un modelo estratégico de gestión del conocimiento para la empresa deprisa sede Tunja

El presente documento da cuenta del diseño de un modelo estratégico de gestión del conocimiento de la empresa DEPRISA sede Tunja basado en el modelo SECI; su marco teórico se basa en la investigación y análisis del recurso humano, su capacitación y la evaluación del desempeño y las actividades y acciones que se emprenden para tal fin. El contexto donde se desarrolla la investigación es la sede de una organización cuya actividad principal es la de enviar y recibir documentos, paquetes y mercancías a nivel nacional. En el estudio se utilizaron como instrumentos de recolección de datos la encuesta y la entrevista dirigidos a las personas que ocupan los diferentes cargos en la oficina de Tunja, encontrándose que ellos no tienen contratación directa con la empresa y que además hacen parte de distintas cooperativas que proveen de recurso humano a DEPRISA, lo cual dificulta unificar criterios de evaluación de desempeño y necesidades de capacitación.This document reports the design of a strategic model of knowledge management company based DEPRISA SECI based on the Tunja’s model; its theoretical framework is based on research and analysis of human resources, training and performance evaluation and the activities and actions undertaken for the purpose. The context in which research takes place is the headquarters of an organization whose main activity is to send and receive documents, parcels and freight nationwide. In the study they were used as instruments of data collection survey and interview aimed at people who occupy different positions in the Tunja’s office, finding that they didn´t have direct contracts with the company and also They are part of different cooperatives human resources to provide fast, making it difficult to unify criteria of performance evaluation and training needs

Psychological distress and its correlates among dental students: a survey of 17 Colombian dental schools

Abstract Background Links between the demanding nature of studies in the health sciences, students’ personality traits and psychological distress have been well-established. While considerable amount of work has been done in medicine, evidence from the dental education arena is sparse and data from Latin America are lacking. The authors conducted a large-scale investigation of psychological distress among dental students in Colombia and sought to determine its curriculum and student-level correlates. Methods The Spanish version of the Derogatis’ Symptoms Checklist Revised (SCL-90-R) was administered to all students officially registered and attending classes or clinics in 17 dental schools in 4 geographic districts of Colombia between January and April 2012. Additional information was collected on participants’ socio-demographic information and first career choice, as well as school’s characteristics such as class size. The Global Severity Index (GSI) score, a measure of overall psychological distress, served as the primary analytical endpoint. Analyses relied on multilevel mixed-effects linear and log-binomial regression, accounting for study design and sample characteristics. Results A total of 5700 dental students completed the survey, a response rate of 67%. Pronounced gradients were noted in the association between socio-economic status and psychological distress, with students in higher strata reporting fewer problems. After adjustment for all important covariates, there was an evident pattern of increasing psychological distress corresponding to the transition from the didactic, to the preclinical and clinical phases of training, with few differences between male and female students. Independent of other factors, reliance on own funds for education and having dentistry as the first career choice were associated with lower psychological distress. Conclusions Levels of psychological distress correlated with students’ socio-economic and study-level characteristics. Above and beyond the influence of person-level factors, variations in levels of distress paralleled specific transitional stages of the 5-year dental curriculum, providing opportunities for targeted interventions

Casa Grande Caribe

Esta obra compila los estudios preparados como parte de la iniciativa “Casa Grande Caribe”, concebida con el propósito de avanzar en la identificación de las inversiones que la región Caribe debe emprender para superar el rezago en cuatro áreas: 1) educación, 2) salud, 3) nutrición, y 4) acueducto y alcantarillado. El costo total de la propuesta presentada se estima en USD 16.000 millones para un periodo de doce años. A su vez, se incluye un análisis de las fuentes de financiamiento y la calidad del gasto regional, con el fin de identificar los posibles recursos para financiarlo y las mejoras requeridas en su ejecución. Los cálculos permiten afirmar que la región podría contar con fondos suficientes para las propuestas planteadas; sin embargo, los resultados serán posibles solo con la buena gestión de los administradores públicos locales y con la participación ciudadana en el seguimiento de las inversiones

Manipulating the alpha level cannot cure significance testing

We argue that making accept/reject decisions on scientific hypotheses, including a recent call for changing the canonical alpha level from p = 0.05 to p = 0.005, is deleterious for the finding of new discoveries and the progress of science. Given that blanket and variable alpha levels both are problematic, it is sensible to dispense with significance testing altogether. There are alternatives that address study design and sample size much more directly than significance testing does; but none of the statistical tools should be taken as the new magic method giving clear-cut mechanical answers. Inference should not be based on single studies at all, but on cumulative evidence from multiple independent studies. When evaluating the strength of the evidence, we should consider, for example, auxiliary assumptions, the strength of the experimental design, and implications for applications. To boil all this down to a binary decision based on a p-value threshold of 0.05, 0.01, 0.005, or anything else, is not acceptable

Constraints on the χ_(c1) versus χ_(c2) polarizations in proton-proton collisions at √s = 8 TeV

The polarizations of promptly produced χ_(c1) and χ_(c2) mesons are studied using data collected by the CMS experiment at the LHC, in proton-proton collisions at √s=8  TeV. The χ_c states are reconstructed via their radiative decays χ_c → J/ψγ, with the photons being measured through conversions to e⁺e⁻, which allows the two states to be well resolved. The polarizations are measured in the helicity frame, through the analysis of the χ_(c2) to χ_(c1) yield ratio as a function of the polar or azimuthal angle of the positive muon emitted in the J/ψ → μ⁺μ⁻ decay, in three bins of J/ψ transverse momentum. While no differences are seen between the two states in terms of azimuthal decay angle distributions, they are observed to have significantly different polar anisotropies. The measurement favors a scenario where at least one of the two states is strongly polarized along the helicity quantization axis, in agreement with nonrelativistic quantum chromodynamics predictions. This is the first measurement of significantly polarized quarkonia produced at high transverse momentum
