Tamizaje de cardiopatías congénitas

Congenital heart diseases are structural anomalies of the heart characterized by being the most frequent malformations in addition to being an important cause of infant and prenatal mortality. There is solid evidence that has shown pulse oximetry to be an effective tool for early recognition in critical cases after 24 hours of birth and before 48 hours; increasing the possibility of a clinical evolution to improve the patient, this test has been recognized as "neonatal screening for congenital heart disease".Las cardiopatías congénitas son anomalías estructurales del corazón caracterizadas por ser las malformaciones más frecuente además de constituir una importante causa de mortalidad infantil y prenatal.  Existen evidencias solidas que han demostrado la realización de pulsioximetria como una herramienta efectiva para su reconocimiento temprano en casos críticos después de 24 horas de nacido y antes de 48 horas; incrementando la posibilidad de una evolución clínica a mejoría del paciente, dicha prueba ha sido reconocida como “tamizaje neonatal de cardiopatías congénitas”

Modelos teóricos para fisioterapia

PublishedEl presente libro proviene de la motivación del Programa de Fisioterapia de la Universidad Santiago de Cali en contribuir a la comunidad académica y profesional con un texto que compile los principales paradigmas teóricos que aportan al desarrollo disciplinar, y que han permitido abordar diversas problemáticas de investigación y de la práctica en diferentes contextos de desempeño del fisioterapeuta en el entramado de lo clínico y social. La compilación de teorías y modelos en los tradicionales campos de acción, traducen en gran medida la complejidad de los saberes en torno al movimiento corporal humano como objeto de estudio de la fisioterapia, y constituye un ejercicio académico donde cada autor desde su experiencia y formación reconoce este objeto como un resultado de elementos físicos, psicológicos y sociales que impactan el bienestar y la salud del hombre

Status Report Of The Schenberg Gravitational Wave Antenna

Here we present a status report of the Schenberg antenna. In the past three years it has gone to a radical upgrading operation, in which we have been installing a 1K pot dilution refrigerator, cabling and amplifiers for nine transducer circuits, designing a new suspension and vibration isolation system for the microstrip antennas, and developing a full set of new transducers, microstrip antennas, and oscillators. We are also studying an innovative approach, which could transform Schenberg into a broadband gravitational wave detector.3631Aguiar, O.D., (2002) Class.

Optimasi Portofolio Resiko Menggunakan Model Markowitz MVO Dikaitkan dengan Keterbatasan Manusia dalam Memprediksi Masa Depan dalam Perspektif Al-Qur`an

Risk portfolio on modern finance has become increasingly technical, requiring the use of sophisticated mathematical tools in both research and practice. Since companies cannot insure themselves completely against risk, as human incompetence in predicting the future precisely that written in Al-Quran surah Luqman verse 34, they have to manage it to yield an optimal portfolio. The objective here is to minimize the variance among all portfolios, or alternatively, to maximize expected return among all portfolios that has at least a certain expected return. Furthermore, this study focuses on optimizing risk portfolio so called Markowitz MVO (Mean-Variance Optimization). Some theoretical frameworks for analysis are arithmetic mean, geometric mean, variance, covariance, linear programming, and quadratic programming. Moreover, finding a minimum variance portfolio produces a convex quadratic programming, that is minimizing the objective function ðð¥with constraintsð ð 𥠥 ðandð´ð¥ = ð. The outcome of this research is the solution of optimal risk portofolio in some investments that could be finished smoothly using MATLAB R2007b software together with its graphic analysis

Search for heavy resonances decaying to two Higgs bosons in final states containing four b quarks

A search is presented for narrow heavy resonances X decaying into pairs of Higgs bosons (H) in proton-proton collisions collected by the CMS experiment at the LHC at root s = 8 TeV. The data correspond to an integrated luminosity of 19.7 fb(-1). The search considers HH resonances with masses between 1 and 3 TeV, having final states of two b quark pairs. Each Higgs boson is produced with large momentum, and the hadronization products of the pair of b quarks can usually be reconstructed as single large jets. The background from multijet and t (t) over bar events is significantly reduced by applying requirements related to the flavor of the jet, its mass, and its substructure. The signal would be identified as a peak on top of the dijet invariant mass spectrum of the remaining background events. No evidence is observed for such a signal. Upper limits obtained at 95 confidence level for the product of the production cross section and branching fraction sigma(gg -> X) B(X -> HH -> b (b) over barb (b) over bar) range from 10 to 1.5 fb for the mass of X from 1.15 to 2.0 TeV, significantly extending previous searches. For a warped extra dimension theory with amass scale Lambda(R) = 1 TeV, the data exclude radion scalar masses between 1.15 and 1.55 TeV

Non-indigenous species refined national baseline inventories : A synthesis in the context of the European Union's Marine Strategy Framework Directive

Refined baseline inventories of non-indigenous species (NIS) are set per European Union Member State (MS), in the context of the Marine Strategy Framework Directive (MSFD). The inventories are based on the initial assessment of the MSFD (2012) and the updated data of the European Alien Species Information Network, in collaboration with NIS experts appointed by the MSs. The analysis revealed that a large number of NIS was not reported from the initial assessments. Moreover, several NIS initially listed are currently considered as native in Europe or were proven to be historical misreportings. The refined baseline inventories constitute a milestone for the MSFD Descriptor 2 implementation, providing an improved basis for reporting new NIS introductions, facilitating the MSFD D2 assessment. In addition, the inventories can help MSs in the establishment of monitoring systems of targeted NIS, and foster cooperation on monitoring of NIS across or within shared marine subregions. Highlights • Refined MSFD baseline inventories of non-indigenous species (NIS) are set in EU. • The inventories are given per EU Member State (MS) and MSFD subregion up to 2012. • The NIS lists provide a basis for reporting new NIS introductions in EU after 2012. • Our work constitutes a milestone for the MSFD Descriptor 2 implementation
