    La construcción de la identidad del artista viene íntimamente ligada a la idea de práctica artística. En el estudio que presentamos a continuación, pretendemos identificar, dar visibilidad y cuestionar los discursos patriarcales (y neoliberales) que hoy en día siguen vigentes en las prácticas artísticas contemporáneas y que de manera indisociable repercuten en la construcción de nuestra subjetividad. Como agentes y participantes de esta investigación, se han analizado como caso de estudio las dinámicas organizativas y los obstáculos encontrados en el funcionamiento del colectivo Cràter, al que pertenecemos las autoras del texto y que fue fundado con la idea de construir un espacio protegido de reflexión y acción totalmente independiente de las dinámicas institucionales de la academia y las exigencias del tardocapitalismo. Cràter no solo es, sino que también se define, como un colectivo de mujeres, feministas, con vocación y formación artística, que busca nuevos modos de entender y hacer en arte, su investigación y su enseñanza.The construction of the artist’s identity becomes closely tied to the idea of artistic practice. In the following study, we aim to identify, to give visibility, and to question the patriarchal (and neoliberal) discourses that continue to be prevalent in contemporary art practices and that inevitably affect the construction of our subjectivity. As agents and participants in this research, we have analyzed as a case study the organizational dynamics and the obstacles we find in the functioning of the Cràter collective, to which the three authors of this text belong and that was founded with the idea of building a protected space for reflection and action, as one totally independent from the institutional dynamics of academia and the demands of late capitalism. Cràter is not just a collective formed by feminist women that have an artistic vocation and formation, but defines itself as such, looking for new ways of doing in the practice of art, research, and education

    Background: Acute respiratory infections are the leading cause of mortality in children worldwide, especially in developing countries. Pneumonia accounts for 16% of all deaths of children under 5 years of age and was the cause of death of 935 000 children in 2015. Despite its frequency and severity, information regarding its etiology is limited. The aim of this study was to identify respiratory viruses associated with community-acquired pneumonia (CAP) in children younger than 5 years old. Methods: One thousand four hundred and four children younger than 5 years of age with a clinical and/or radiological diagnosis of CAP in 11 hospitals in Mexico were included. Nasal washes were collected, placed in viral medium, and frozen at �70 C until processing. The first 832 samples were processed using the multiplex Bio-Plex/Luminex system and the remaining 572 samples using the Anyplex multiplex RT-PCR. Clinical data regarding diagnosis, clinical signs and symptoms, radiographic pattern, and risk factors were obtained and recorded. Results: Of the samples tested, 81.6% were positive for viruses. Respiratory syncytial virus (types A and B) was found in 23.7%, human enterovirus/rhinovirus in 16.6%, metapneumovirus in 5.7%, parainfluenza virus (types 1–4) in 5.5%, influenza virus (types A and B) in 3.6%, adenovirus in 2.2%, coronavirus (NL63, OC43, 229E, and HKU1) in 2.2%, and bocavirus in 0.4%. Co-infection with two or more viruses was present in 22.1%; 18.4% of the samples were negative. Using biomass for cooking, daycare attendance, absence of breastfeeding, and co-infections were found to be statistically significant risk factors for the presence of severe pneumonia. Conclusions: Respiratory syncytial virus (types A and B), human enterovirus/rhinovirus, and metapneumovirus were the respiratory viruses identified most frequently in children younger than 5 years old with CAP. Co-infection was present in an important proportion of the children
