Introduction. Language, culture and identity

The interrelationships between language, culture and identity are a major focus for many linguists, cognitive and cultural researchers. Language has an inextricable connection with cultural identity and cultural practices, which in turn shapes personal identity. The nexus of language, culture and identity is explored in this book from diverse disciplinary and theoretical perspectives, offering a wealth of insights to a wide range of reader

Pictures to remember. Generational memories about the recent past in Chile

Tras la emisión de series ficcionales transmitidas en televisión abierta el 2013, año de la conmemoración de los 40 años del golpe de Estado en Chile, realizamos entrevistas en profundidad y grupos focales para construir los repertorios iconográficos sobre la dictadura de tres generaciones adultas de telespectadores con experiencias de vida distintas: los que vivieron el golpe de Estado, los que crecieron en dictadura y los que crecieron en democracia.After the broadcasting of fiction series on open television in 2013, the year of commemoration of the 40 years of the coup in Chile, we conducted in-depth interviews and focus groups to build the iconographic repertoires about the dictatorship of three adult generations of viewers with different life experiences: those who experienced the coup d’etat, those who grew up in dictatorship and those who grew up in democrac

Trematodos del ganado vacuno lechero al pastoreo en Cajamarca, Perú: Fasciola hepatica y Calicophoron microbothrioides

The study determines the prevalence of trematodes through coproparasitology in grazing dairy cattle in six districts of the Cajamarca region. The analyzes and processing of the faecal samples were carried out by natural sedimentation. The proportion of parasitized animals was 50.4 ± 2.1% (1092/2169), only Fasciola hepatica 32.4 ± 2.0% (703/2169), Calicophoron microbothrioides 17.9 ± 1.6% (389/2169) and coinfection by both parasites was 7.51 ± 1.11% (163/2169). The prevalence by district in Cajamarca was 49.5±5.0% (188/380), Baños del Inca 61.2±5.6% (181/296), La Encañada 80.7±4.1% (284/352), Celendín 45.4±5.0% (171 /377), San Juan 50.0±5.0% (190/380) and Chota 20.3±4.0% (78/384). There was no statistical association in the presence of both trematodes in the animals (p>0.95), nor was a correlation found between the altitude of each district and the presence of faecal eggs (r=0.19). It is concluded that the prevalence of trematodes in extensively reared dairy cattle in Cajamarca is high, with the greatest presence of F. hepatica, followed by C. microbothrioides and their coexistence.El estudio determina la prevalencia de trematodos mediante coproparasitología en ganado vacuno lechero de crianza al pastoreo en seis distritos de la región Cajamarca.

Las prevalencias por distrito fueron en Cajamarca de 49.5±5.0% (188/380), Baños del Inca 61.2±5.6% (181/296), La Encañada 80.7±4.1% (284/352), Celendín 45.4±5.0% (171/377), San Juan 50.0±5.0% (190/380) y Chota 20.3±4.0% (78/384). No hubo asociación estadística en la presentación de ambos trematodos en los animales (p>0.95), ni se encontró correlación entre la altitud de cada distrito y la presencia de huevos fecales (r=0.19). Se concluye que, la prevalencia de trematodos en ganado vacuno lechero de crianza extensiva en Cajamarca es alta, con mayor presencia de F. hepatica, seguido de C. microbothrioides y su coexistencia

Major role of nutrient supply in the control of picophytoplankton community structure.

abstractThe Margalef´s mandala (1978) is a simplified bottom-up control model that explains how mixing and nutrient concentration determine the composition of marine phytoplankton communities. Due to the difficulties of measuring turbulence in the field, previous attempts to verify this model have applied different proxies for nutrient supply, and very often used interchangeably the terms mixing and stratification. Moreover, because the mandala was conceived before the discovery of smaller phytoplankton groups (picoplankton <2 μm), it describes only the succession of vegetative phases of microplankton. In order to test the applicability of the classical mandala to picoplankton groups, we used a multidisciplinary approach including specifically designed field observations supported by remote sensing, database analyses, and modeling and laboratory chemostat experiments. Simultaneous estimates of nitrate diffusive fluxes, derived from microturbulence observations, and picoplankton abundance collected in more than 200 stations, spanning widely different hydrographic regimes, showed that the contribution of eukaryotes to picoautotrophic biomass increases with nutrient supply, whereas that of picocyanobacteria shows the opposite trend. These findings were supported by laboratory and modeling chemostat experiments that reproduced the competitive dynamics between picoeukaryote sand picocyanobacteria as a function of changing nutrient supply. Our results indicate that nutrient supply controls the distribution of picoplankton functional groups in the ocean, further supporting the model proposed by Margalef.RADIALES (IEO

Control of tHe structure of marine phytoplAnkton cOmmunities by turbulence and nutrient supply dynamicS (CHAOS)

extended abstract del posterIn order to investigate the role of turbulence mixing on structuring marine phytoplankton communities, the CHAOS project included a multidisciplinary approach involving specifically designed field observations supported by remote sensing, database analyses, and modeling and laboratory chemostat experiments. Field observations carried out in the outer part of Ría de Vigo in summer 2013 showed that, as a result of increased mixing levels, nitrate diffusive input into the euphotic layer was approximately 4-fold higher during spring tides. This nitrate supply could contribute to explain the continuous dominance of large-sized phytoplankton during the upwelling favorable season. Simultaneous estimates of nitrate diffusive fluxes, derived from microturbulence observations, and picoplankton abundance collected in more than 100 stations, spanning widely different hydrographic regimes, showed that the contribution of eukaryotes to picoautotrophic biomass increases with nutrient supply, whereas that of picocyanobacteria shows the opposite trend. These findings were supported by laboratory and modeling chemostat experiments that reproduced the competitive dynamics between picoeukaryote and picocyanobacteria as a function of changing nutrient supply. The results derived from this project confirm that turbulence and mixing control the availability of light and nutrients, which in turn determine the structure of marine phytoplankton communities.RADIALES-20 (IEO), CHAOS (CTM 2012-30680), Malaspina-2010(CSD2008-00077

Associated factors for mortality in a COVID-19 colombian cohort : is the third wave relevant when Mu variant was predominant epidemiologically?

Q1Q1Pacientes con COVID-19Objectives: To evaluate the association between Colombia's third wave when the Mu variant was predominant epidemiologically (until 75%) in Colombia and COVID-19 all-cause in-hospital mortality. Methods: In this retrospective cohort, we included hospitalized patients ≥18 years with SARS-CoV-2 infection between March 2020 to September 2021 in ten hospitals from three cities in Colombia. Description analysis, survival, and multivariate Cox regression analyses were performed to evaluate the association between the third epidemic wave and in-hospital mortality. Results: A total of 25,371 patients were included. The age-stratified time-to-mortality curves showed differences according to epidemic waves in patients ≥75 years (log-rank test p = 0.012). In the multivariate Cox analysis, the third wave was not associated with increased mortality relative to the first wave (aHR 0.95; 95%CI 0.84–1.08), but there was an interaction between age ≥75 years and the third wave finding a lower HR for mortality (aHR 0.56, 95%CI 0.36–0.86). Conclusions: We did not find an increase in in-hospital mortality during the third epidemic wave in which the Mu variant was predominant in Colombia. The reduced hazard in mortality in patients ≥75 years hospitalized in the third wave could be explained by the high coverage of SARS-CoV-2 vaccination in this population and patients with underlying conditions.https://orcid.org/0000-0003-1833-1599https://orcid.org/0000-0001-5363-5729https://orcid.org/0000-0001-6964-2229https://orcid.org/0000-0003-3975-2835https://orcid.org/0000-0001-9441-4375Revista Internacional - IndexadaA1N
