Aspectos epidemiolĂłgicos de la infecciĂłn por el virus de la inmunodeficiencia humana en Cotopaxi
Introduction: The Human Immunodeficiency Virus (HIV) is anagent that attacks the immune system, depressing itprogressively and evolves to the syndrome ofacquiredimmunodeficiency (AIDS). Deaths from this cause in Ecuadorrepresent 3% in Latin America, 2014 according to UNAIDSreports, show that there are 31855 people currently livingwith HIV in Ecuador, there are no data by province reflectingthe epidemiological trend of the pandemic.
Objective: To describe the sociodemographic aspects that characterize the behavior of HIV in Cotopaxi.
Material and methods: a longitudinal and retrospectivedescriptive study was conducted in the first half of the year2015 in the General Provincial Hospital in Latacunga.
Results: 114 patients were enrolled in the study, of them 12new cases. Predomino 72.8% male, aged 20-34 years in57,89%. The canton of highest incidence was the Mana39,47%. In terms of clinical status; 53,51% infected andundergoing AIDS 46,49%.
Conclusions: The epidemiological behavior of the HIVinfection in the province of Cotopaxi reflects that thepredominant male, mixed race and the aged between 20 and 34 years.IntroducciĂłn: El Virus de la Inmunodeficiencia Humana (VIH) es un agente que ataca el sistema inmune, deprimiĂŠndolo progresivamente y evoluciona al SĂndrome de Inmunodeficiencia Adquirida (SIDA).

Objetivo: Describir los aspectos sociodemogrĂ ficosque caracterizan el comportamiento de la infecciĂłn por VIH en Cotopaxi.
Material y mĂŠtodos: Se realizĂł un estudio descriptivo longitudinal y retrospectivo en el primer semestre del 2015 en el Hospital Provincial General de Latacunga.
Resultados: Se incluyeron 114 pacientes en el estudio, de ellos 12 casos nuevos. Predominò el sexo masculino en 72,8%, las edades comprendidas entre 20-34 aùos en el 57,89%. El cantòn de mayor incidencia fue La Manà con 39,47%. En cuanto al estado clÏnico; infectados 53,51% y en fase SIDA 46,49%.
Conclusiones: El comportamiento epidemiolĂłgico de la infecciĂłn por VIH en la Provincia de Cotopaxi refleja que predominĂł el sexo masculino, raza mestiza y las edades comprendidas entre 20 y 34 aĂąos

Evaluation of Functional Capacity by Six- Minute Walk Test in Pediatric Asthma Patients
Los pacientes con asma muestran menor tolerancia al ejercicio. La prueba de caminata de 6 minutos (6MWD) evalĂşa la capacidad funcional (CF). La actividad fĂsica eleva los puntajes en el Cuestionario de autopercepciĂłn fĂsica (PSPQ)
Reactividad cruzada en sinusitis alĂŠrgica fĂşngica. Reporte de caso
La presencia de mucina aleĚrgica en la rinosinusitis aleĚrgica fuĚngica (RAF) es una manifestacioĚn que la identifica como un proceso de hipersensibilidad. En la RAF existe un fenoĚmeno de reactividad cruzada entre proteiĚnas unidas a IgE que tienen al menos dos epiĚtopes compartidos.
ABSTRACT
The presence of allergic mucin in allergic fungal sinusitis (AFS) is a manifestation that identifies it as a hypersensitivity process. AFS has a phenomenon of cross-reactivity to IgEbound proteins having at least two shared epitopes
Constraints on the Ď_(c1) versus Ď_(c2) polarizations in proton-proton collisions at âs = 8 TeV
The polarizations of promptly produced Ď_(c1) and Ď_(c2) mesons are studied using data collected by the CMS experiment at the LHC, in proton-proton collisions at âs=8ââTeV. The Ď_c states are reconstructed via their radiative decays Ď_c â J/ĎÎł, with the photons being measured through conversions to eâşeâť, which allows the two states to be well resolved. The polarizations are measured in the helicity frame, through the analysis of the Ď_(c2) to Ď_(c1) yield ratio as a function of the polar or azimuthal angle of the positive muon emitted in the J/Ď â ÎźâşÎźâť decay, in three bins of J/Ď transverse momentum. While no differences are seen between the two states in terms of azimuthal decay angle distributions, they are observed to have significantly different polar anisotropies. The measurement favors a scenario where at least one of the two states is strongly polarized along the helicity quantization axis, in agreement with nonrelativistic quantum chromodynamics predictions. This is the first measurement of significantly polarized quarkonia produced at high transverse momentum
Search for the standard model Higgs boson in the H to ZZ to 2l 2nu channel in pp collisions at sqrt(s) = 7 TeV
A search for the standard model Higgs boson in the H to ZZ to 2l 2nu decay
channel, where l = e or mu, in pp collisions at a center-of-mass energy of 7
TeV is presented. The data were collected at the LHC, with the CMS detector,
and correspond to an integrated luminosity of 4.6 inverse femtobarns. No
significant excess is observed above the background expectation, and upper
limits are set on the Higgs boson production cross section. The presence of the
standard model Higgs boson with a mass in the 270-440 GeV range is excluded at
95% confidence level.Comment: Submitted to JHE
