Soporte familiar y calidad de vida en adultos mayores: Comunidad Laicas Doroteas de la Fressinetti, distrito de José Leonardo Ortiz, 2023

El presente estudio, tuvo como objetivo demostrar la relación que tiene el soporte familiar y la calidad de vida de los adultos mayores de la comunidad Laicas Doroteas de la Fressinetti, en el distrito de José Leonardo Ortiz en el 2023.Para ello se desarrolló un estudio cuantitativo no experimental del tipo descriptivo, correlacional y de campo. La muestra estuvo conformada por 25 adultos mayores, los cuales tienen bajo soporte familiar y son parte de la comunidad Laicas Doroteas de la Fressinetti. Para la recolección de datos se utilizó como técnica la encuesta y como instrumento un cuestionario modificado bajo preguntas dicotómicas y estructurados por 64 ítems. Los resultados de la investigación demostraron que el tipo de soporte familiar si se relaciona con la calidad de vida, por lo que las familias que fomentaron un bajo soporte a sus adultos mayores, debido a la desinformación, la escasez de personas encargadas de las necesidades del familiar o la carencia de familiares cercanos en hogares unipersonales vieron afectada su dinámica familiar, la forma de atención a las urgencias y su convivencia; sin embargo, ellos al estar predispuestos a integrarse bajo redes secundarias o terciarias, como programas sociales, centros de salud, fortalecieron en gran parte su bienestar integral. De acuerdo a lo expuesto, hubo una relación significativa entre el soporte familiar y la calidad de vida. Este vínculo identificó que en los miembros de la comunidad Laicas Doroteas de la Fressinetti, el tener un bajo soporte familiar desencadeno una regular calidad de vida.TesisDesarrollo humano, comunicación y ciencias jurídicas para enfrentar los desafíos globale

Escmid And Ecmm Joint Clinical Guidelines For The Diagnosis And Management Of Systemic Phaeohyphomycosis: Diseases Caused By Black Fungi

The aetiological agents of many invasive fungal infections are saprobes and opportunistic pathogens. Some of these fungi are darkly pigmented due to melanin production and traditionally have been named dematiaceous'. The melanized fungi cause a wide array of clinical syndromes ranging from superficial to deep-seated infections. Diagnosis relies on histopathological examination of clinical specimens and on examination of cultures. Sequencing is recommended for accurate species identification, especially for unusual or newly described pathogens. In cases of mycetoma and chromoblastomycosis, pathognomonic histological findings are useful and the Fontana-Masson stain, specific for melanin, usually confirms the diagnosis. There are no standardized therapies but voriconazole, posaconazole and itraconazole demonstrate the most consistent in vitro activity against this group of fungi. Oral itraconazole has been considered the drug of choice, given the extensive clinical experience with this drug. However, voriconazole may presumably be superior for central nervous system infections because of its ability to achieve good levels in the cerebrospinal fluid. Posaconazole is a well-tolerated alternative drug, backed by less clinical experience but with excellent salvage treatment results after failure of other antifungals. Amphotericin B has been useful as alternative therapy in some cases. Combination antifungal therapy is recommended for cerebral abscesses when surgery is not possible and for disseminated infections in immunocompromised patients.WoSScopu

A global metagenomic map of urban microbiomes and antimicrobial resistance

We present a global atlas of 4,728 metagenomic samples from mass-transit systems in 60 cities over 3 years, representing the first systematic, worldwide catalog of the urban microbial ecosystem. This atlas provides an annotated, geospatial profile of microbial strains, functional characteristics, antimicrobial resistance (AMR) markers, and genetic elements, including 10,928 viruses, 1,302 bacteria, 2 archaea, and 838,532 CRISPR arrays not found in reference databases. We identified 4,246 known species of urban microorganisms and a consistent set of 31 species found in 97% of samples that were distinct from human commensal organisms. Profiles of AMR genes varied widely in type and density across cities. Cities showed distinct microbial taxonomic signatures that were driven by climate and geographic differences. These results constitute a high-resolution global metagenomic atlas that enables discovery of organisms and genes, highlights potential public health and forensic applications, and provides a culture-independent view of AMR burden in cities.Funding: the Tri-I Program in Computational Biology and Medicine (CBM) funded by NIH grant 1T32GM083937; GitHub; Philip Blood and the Extreme Science and Engineering Discovery Environment (XSEDE), supported by NSF grant number ACI-1548562 and NSF award number ACI-1445606; NASA (NNX14AH50G, NNX17AB26G), the NIH (R01AI151059, R25EB020393, R21AI129851, R35GM138152, U01DA053941); STARR Foundation (I13- 0052); LLS (MCL7001-18, LLS 9238-16, LLS-MCL7001-18); the NSF (1840275); the Bill and Melinda Gates Foundation (OPP1151054); the Alfred P.
