Editing the Double Bass Concerto of Antonio Scontrino
Antonio Scontrino (1850-1922) was an important Italian Romantic composer, virtuoso double bassist, and respected pedagogue who is relatively unknown outside of the Italian musical community. His compositional output is prolific and includes string quartets, operas, symphonies, concerti, solo pieces, songs, and religious works. Indeed, Scontrino was a compelling composer who deserves more attention from the international musical community. In addition to his compositional expertise, he was an artful double bass performer whose works for the instrument, while distinctly idiomatic, are compositions of high quality.
This dissertation provides a description of the composer’s life and the events that transpired around Scontrino and his Double Bass Concerto. Such historical background clarifies why the double bass community is not so familiar with this concerto. It also provides insight into the author’s transcription process of the orchestral manuscript of Antonio Scontrino’s Double Bass Concerto, which finally makes an edited and published version of the score and instrument parts available to the public.
Scontrino’s present absence of notoriety as a composer is not for lack of merit, but for historical and socio-political circumstances, which is rather unfortunate for the double bass field. His compositional catalogue, which includes seventeen pieces featuring the double bass as a solo instrument, is rich, varied, and worthy of publication. Future projects will include the transcription and publication of his pieces for double bass that are still in manuscript form
Caracterización de los pacientes con sÃndrome cardiorrenal tipo I y II en diálisis peritoneal en un centro de diálisis en Bogotá
Introducción: La ICC que deteriora la función renal es denominada SCR. La DP se plantea como alternativa que impacta en la función cardÃaca, hospitalización, sÃntomas e incluso en la mortalidad 3-5 .
Objetivo: Describir el comportamiento de la función renal residual y la mortalidad en pacientes con sÃndrome cardiorrenal tipo I Y II en diálisis peritoneal en un centro de diálisis de Bogotá, entre 2013 y 2016.
MetodologÃa: Se realizó un estudio de cohorte retrospectivo. Se incluyeron pacientes adultos con SCR I y II que ingresaron al centro para DP desde el 1/08/2013 -1/08/16, con seguimiento a cada paciente hasta el 31/07/16. Se evaluaron variables clÃnico demográficas y de función renal al inicio y final de la DP, asà como mortalidad al finalizar el tratamiento. Los datos fueron extraÃdos de las historias clÃnicas del sistema de RTS Renir y Versia. El análisis estadÃstico se realizó empleando STATA® versión 12.0. La velocidad de cambio de la función renal residual se estimó a partir del coeficiente de regresión de un modelo lineal. La tasa de mortalidad se evaluó mediante el método de Kaplan Meier.
Resultados: Se evaluaron 16 pacientes, con edad 71 años ± 10.94, tiempo en diálisis de 10.9 meses y fracción de eyección de 29% ± 12.7. Se obtuvo una tasa de disminución de FRR de 0.75 ml/min/1.73 m2 por c/1,46 meses. La tasa de mortalidad al año fue de 41.61%. La sobrevida a un año fue 68%. La principal causa de muerte fue IAMIntroduction: The ICC that impairs renal function is called SCR. PD is an alternative that has an impact on cardiac function, hospitalization, symptoms and even mortality 3-5. Objective: To describe the behavior of residual renal function and mortality in patients with type I and II cardiorenal syndrome in peritoneal dialysis at a Bogotá dialysis center between 2013 and 2016. Methodology: A retrospective cohort study was performed. Adult patients with SCR I and II who entered the center for PD from 08/08/2013 to 08/18/16 were included, with follow-up to each patient until 07/31/16. Clinical demographic and renal function variables were assessed at the beginning and end of PD, as well as mortality at the end of treatment. The data were extracted from the clinical records of the Renir and Versia RTS system. Statistical analysis was performed using STATA® version 12. 0. The rate of change in residual renal function was estimated from the regression coefficient of a linear model. The mortality rate was assessed using the Kaplan Meier method. Results: Sixteen patients, aged 71 years ± 10. 94, 10. 9 months on dialysis and ejection fraction of 29% ± 12. 7 were evaluated. A FRR decrease rate of 0. 75 ml / min / 1. 73 m2 per c / 1. 46 months was obtained. The mortality rate per year was 41. 61%. One-year survival was 68%. The main cause of death was AM
Cathartic agent nephropathy based on sodium phosphate in kidney patients transplanted. Report of case
Sodium phosphate nephropathy consists of damage to the kidneys caused by the use of laxatives containing sodium phosphate.  Depending on the time of use of these drugs used for colonic preparation this disease can be acute or chronic. The acute condition can be cured with a suitable treatment, but the chronic condition can cause irreversible kidney damage.This case is about a patient who receives our services in the unit in Fundación Cardio Infantil in Bogotá, Colombia, with an acute kidney injurywith renal transplant being monitored. Sodium phosphate was used to be prepared the kidney for a colonoscopy

Design and implementation of a system to determine property tax through the processing and analysis of satellite images
One of the main objectives when implementing metaheuristics in engineering problems, is to solve complex situations and look for feasible solutions within a defined interval by the design dimensions. With the support of heuristic techniques such as neural networks, it was possible to find the sections that allow to obtain the characteristics of interest to carry out the study of the important regions of an image. The analysis and digital processing of images allows to smooth the file and to section the area of analysis in regions defined as rows and columns, results in a matrix of pixels, this way carrying out the measurement of the coordinates of the beginning and end of the region under analysis, taking it as a starting point for the creation of a frame of references to be examined. Once this requirement is completed, it is possible to return to the smoothed image with which the high edges of the image will be determined by means of the Gaussian function, thus finding the edges generated for the structures of interest
