Modelo de gestión de desechos sólidos para el recinto Cabuyal, cantón Santa Lucía

En el Recinto Cabuyal (provincia del Guayas) se realizó la caracterización de los residuos sólidos generados durante los meses de septiembre a diciembre del 2018. La caracterización fue elaborada por medio de la recolección de residuos en un número determinado de viviendas y se realizó un diagnóstico general sobre el manejo de los desechos, así como, el análisis de la percepción de los habitantes a través de 63 encuestas. Se determinó una producción diaria de 25,4 kg de desechos sólidos y una generación per cápita de 0,22 kg/hab/día. La densidad total de desechos sólidos fue de 331,1 kg/m3 de los cuales, el 30% correspondió a materia orgánica, el 20% a metales y plásticos, el 15% a papel y cartón, el 12% a vidrio y otros el 3%. Las encuestas revelaron que, la mayoría de la población considerada (52%) está consciente del impacto ambiental asociado a la generación de desechos. Sin embargo, debido al escaso manejo y recolección de las entidades competentes, el 48% de la población encuestada opta por incinerar los desechos; mientras que, una menor proporción prefiere enterrarla o arrojarla al río (26 %). Adicionalmente, el 100% de los encuestados no realiza ningún tipo de clasificación de desechos sólidos, y con relación a la frecuencia de eliminación de desechos, el 81% de los habitantes lo realiza una vez a la semana. En lo referente al conocimiento de los sistemas de gestión de desechos sólidos que se aplican en el país, la mayoría de encuestados, representado por el 98% indica desconocer sobre el tema; mientras que, en el ámbito de cobertura y atención en servicios de limpieza y recolección, el 100% de los encuestados afirma que la autoridad competente no proporciona un buen servicio de limpieza y recolección de basura, debido a esto el 78% de los encuestados considera que se debe mejorar la gestión de desechos sólidos en la comunidad. Cabe destacar es que, el 57% de los encuestados estaría de acuerdo con la implementación de medidas de mitigación y reciclaje a nivel personal y en su hogar. Finalmente, con la información recopilada se elaboró el Plan de Manejo de Desechos Sólidos, el cual posee subplanes, programas y actividades determinadas, ofreciendo una alternativa de manejo ambiental para el GAD cantonal de Santa Lucía, que puede servir como una herramienta para mejorar la calidad de vida de las demás zonas rurales del cantón.In the Cabuyal enclosure, Santa Lucia canton, Guayas province, the characterization of the solid waste generated in the area was carried out during the months of September to December 2018, considering composition, density and generation per capita. The characterization was elaborated by means of the collection of waste in a determined number of houses and a general diagnosis was made on the management of waste, as well as the analysis of the perception of the inhabitants through 63 surveys. A daily production of 25.4 kg of solid waste and a per capita generation of 0.22 kg / inhab / day was determined. The total density of solid waste was 331.1 kg / m3 of which, 30% corresponded to organic matter, 20% to metals and plastics, 15% to paper and cardboard, 12% to glass and others the 3%. Through the surveys it was established that the majority of the population considered (52%) are aware of the environmental incidents that garbage can cause. However, due to the scarce handling and collection of the competent entities, 48% of the surveyed population chooses to incinerate the waste; while a lower proportion prefer to bury it or throw it into the river (26%). Additionally, 100% of those surveyed do not perform any type of solid waste classification, in terms of the frequency of waste disposal, 81% eliminate waste once a week, in terms of knowledge of management systems of solid waste that are applied in the country, the majority of respondents, represented by 98%, indicate they do not know about the subject, in the area of coverage and attention in cleaning and collection services, 100% of the respondents affirm that the authority competent does not provide a good cleaning and garbage collection service, due to this 78% of respondents consider that solid waste management should be improved in the community, something important to note is that a high percentage of respondents would agree agreement with the implementation of the measures at the personal level and at home, represented by 57%; With the information collected, the Solid Waste Management Plan was prepared, which has sub-plans, programs and specific activities, offering an alternative environmental management for the cantonal GAD of Santa Lucía, which can serve as a tool to improve the quality of life from the other rural areas of the canto

Vaccinia Virus Nucleoside Triphosphate Phosphohydrolase I Is an Essential Viral Early Gene Transcription Termination Factor

AbstractDeng and Shuman (J. Biol Chem.271, 29386 (1996)) reported that an ATPase different from the known viral termination factor, VTF, is required for vaccinia virus early gene transcription termination. Properties of this ATPase were similar to those of a known vaccinia virus enzyme, nucleoside triphosphate phosphohydrolase I (NPH I) the product of gene D11L. Transcription-competent cell-free extracts were prepared from A549 cells infected with wild-type or mutant vaccinia virus harboring ts mutations in gene D11L. These extracts were employed to investigate the role of NPH I in early gene transcription termination. Extracts prepared under nonpermissive conditions from both wild-type virus and ts mutant virus-infected cells exhibited high levels of early and intermediate gene transcription activity but were incapable of supporting late gene transcription. ts mutant extracts lacked signal-dependent early gene transcription termination activity, which was restored by the addition of either free NPH I or a GST-NPH I fusion protein. A comparison of the NPH I amino acid sequence to the protein databases revealed the presence of a set of sequences characteristic of nucleic acid helicase superfamily II members. A series of site-specific mutations in the helicase motifs and N-terminal and C-terminal deletion mutations were expressed as GST fusion proteins and their activities assessed. Of the mutations in helicase motifs I to VI, alteration of all but motif III reduced the ATPase activity. Removal of as few as 24 amino acids from the N-terminal end eliminated ATPase activity, while deletion of 68 C-terminal amino acids exhibited only a modest decrease in ATP hydrolysis. Larger C-terminal deletions eliminated ATPase activity. Each deletion mutation, and site-specific mutations other than the motif III mutation, failed to support transcription terminationin vitro.Mutations in motifs I, II, V, and VI inhibit wild-type NPH I transcription termination activity. However, deletion of up to 68 amino acids from the C-terminal end eliminates this inhibitory property. This observation is particularly interesting since these C-terminal deletions retain both ATPase activity and single-stranded DNA binding activity. Their failure to inhibit transcription termination suggests that these C-terminal deletion mutations eliminate a site required for a function other than from DNA binding or ATP hydrolysis

Trombocitopenia como factor de riesgo de ductus arterioso persistente en prematuros del Hospital Regional Docente de Cajamarca, enero 2017 – diciembre 2021

Objetivo: Evidenciar si la Trombocitopenia es un factor de riesgo de ductus arterioso persistente (DAP) en prematuros menores de 34 semanas del Hospital Regional Docente de Cajamarca (HRDC) entre enero del 2017 y diciembre del 2021. Metodología: se realizó un estudio de casos y controles retrospectivo en el HRDC entre enero 2017 y diciembre 2021. Se analizaron los casos de 43 prematuros de menos de 34 semanas con DAP y 85 controles sin DAP. Se recolectó información sobre características demográficas, trombocitopenia y la presencia de factores de confusión evaluados en un diagrama aciclico. Se aplicó la prueba estadística X2 entre los factores de riesgo observados con nivel de significancia p <0.05 y se midió la fuerza de asociación de cada una mediante el Odd Ratio con un IC del 95%. Finalmente se realizó un análisis multivariado de regresión logística para evaluar el OR ajustado para la trombocitopenia como factor de riesgo independiente de DAP. Resultados: los datos obtenidos indican que el síndrome de distrés respiratorio (OR:10.78), asfixia perinatal (OR:3.478) y sepsis neonatal temprana (OR:9.739) tienen asociación significativa con el desarrollo de DAP. Finalmente se evidenció que la trombocitopenia en el primer día de vida tiene una asociación significativa con el desarrollo de DAP con un OR ajustado en el modelo de regresión logística de 3.062 (IC95%: 1.079-8.684, p-valor:0.035). Conclusiones: se evidenció que la trombocitopenia es un factor de riesgo para DAP en prematuros menores de 34 semanas, existe 3 veces más riesgo de que un prematuro menor de 34 semanas desarrolle DAP si presentó trombocitopenia en el primer día de vida

Pesquisa de clima organizacional: uma análise quantitativa

O presente estudo abordou uma pesquisa de Clima Organizacional realizada junto à empresa pública EMATER-DF, mostrando os pontos que podem ser melhorados para que a empresa proporcione um melhor ambiente de trabalho aos seus funcionários, uma vez que a organização deseja desenvolver uma cultura empresarial adaptada às demandas do Terceiro Milênio. Este tipo de pesquisa vem sendo reiteradamente utilizada nas organizações com a finalidade de diagnosticar a percepção dos funcionários acerca das práticas da empresa, e, a partir disso, minimizar os conflitos entre as necessidades dos indivíduos e as da organização, melhorando, assim, o ambiente de trabalho e, por conseguinte, o desempenho dos funcionários. Neste intuito, já que pesquisas de clima organizacional são importantes ferramentas provedoras de novas formas de gestão compatíveis às exigências do novo mercado global, foi utilizado um questionário com 19 fatores que podem interferir no Clima Organizacional de uma empresa, tais como: Conformidade com a Estrutura, Responsabilidade, Padrões de Desempenho, Recompensas, Clareza Organizacional, Calor Humano e Apoio, Liderança, Oportunidade de Progresso, Conflitos, Flexibilidade, Participação, Competição, Comprometimento com a Empresa, Equidade Salarial, Condições de Trabalho, Comunicação, Ética Empresarial, Estímulo à Criatividade e Oportunidade de Desenvolvimento Profissional. O questionário de clima organizacional foi respondido por 105 funcionários da EMATER lotados em áreas específicas, totalizando 61% da amostra total de empregados da empresa e 85% dos funcionários das áreas onde foram aplicados os questionários. De maneira genérica, os cinco pontos mais favoráveis em relação à qualidade de clima organizacional foram: Estímulo à Criatividade, Comprometimento com a Empresa, Conformidade com a Estrutura, Condições de Trabalho e Competição. Já os cinco pontos mais desfavoráveis em relação à qualidade de clima organizacional foram: Comunicação, Oportunidade de Progresso, Padrões de Desempenho, Clareza Organizacional e Conflitos. Tais resultados sugerem que a EMATER-DF fomente, principalmente, as áreas de Comunicação e Padrões de Desempenho, pois além de terem sido os fatores mais desfavoráveis a um bom clima organizacional, também foram os fatores que mais se correlacionaram com os demais

Método simbólico en la inteligencia lingüística en el área de ciencias sociales en los estudiantes del VII ciclo de la Institución Educativa Politécnico Regional del Centro, del distrito del Tambo, provincia de Huancayo, 2019

El Ministerio de Educación tiene que reinventar creativamente sus propuestas educativas dado que los escolares peruanos, principalmente en colegios estatales y en zonas rurales, continúan presentando niveles de rendimientos bajos en comprensión de textos, matemática y ciencias, según los estándares. Un sistema educativo sin creatividad obstinado en creer que ser inteligente es desarrollar textos olvidando el tipo de inteligencia dominante para potencializarla y/o medirla posteriormente si fuera necesario. Esta aportación indaga sobre cómo la inteligencia lingüística nos permite comunicar y expresar nuestras ideas y opiniones mediante el lenguaje en el área de ciencias sociales, concluyendo que el método simbólico influye significativamente en la inteligencia lingüística en el área de ciencias sociales en los estudiantes del VII ciclo de la Institución Educativa Politécnico Regional del Centro, del distrito del Tambo, provincia de Huancayo, 2019.The Ministry of Education has to creatively reinvent its educational proposals given that Peruvian schoolchildren, mainly in state schools and in rural areas, continue to present low performance levels in text, math and science understanding, according to standards. An educational system without creativity obstinate in believing that being intelligent is to develop texts forgetting the type of dominant intelligence to potentiate it and / or measure it later if necessary. This contribution investigates how linguistic intelligence allows us to communicate and express our ideas and opinions through language in the area of social sciences, concluding that the symbolic method significantly influences linguistic intelligence in the area of social sciences in the students of the seventh cycle of the Regional Polytechnic Educational Institution of the Center, of the district of Tambo, province of Huancayo, 2019

Identification of Emergency Department Visits in Medicare Administrative Claims: Approaches and Implications

ObjectivesAdministrative claims data sets are often used for emergency care research and policy investigations of healthcare resource utilization, acute care practices, and evaluation of quality improvement interventions. Despite the high profile of emergency department (ED) visits in analyses using administrative claims, little work has evaluated the degree to which existing definitions based on claims data accurately captures conventionally defined hospital‐based ED services. We sought to construct an operational definition for ED visitation using a comprehensive Medicare data set and to compare this definition to existing operational definitions used by researchers and policymakers.MethodsWe examined four operational definitions of an ED visit commonly used by researchers and policymakers using a 20% sample of the 2012 Medicare Chronic Condition Warehouse (CCW) data set. The CCW data set included all Part A (hospital) and Part B (hospital outpatient, physician) claims for a nationally representative sample of continuously enrolled Medicare fee‐for‐services beneficiaries. Three definitions were based on published research or existing quality metrics including: 1) provider claims–based definition, 2) facility claims–based definition, and 3) CMS Research Data Assistance Center (ResDAC) definition. In addition, we developed a fourth operational definition (Yale definition) that sought to incorporate additional coding rules for identifying ED visits. We report levels of agreement and disagreement among the four definitions.ResultsOf 10,717,786 beneficiaries included in the sample data set, 22% had evidence of ED use during the study year under any of the ED visit definitions. The definition using provider claims identified a total of 4,199,148 ED visits, the facility definition 4,795,057 visits, the ResDAC definition 5,278,980 ED visits, and the Yale definition 5,192,235 ED visits. The Yale definition identified a statistically different (p < 0.05) collection of ED visits than all other definitions including 17% more ED visits than the provider definition and 2% fewer visits than the ResDAC definition. Differences in ED visitation counts between each definition occurred for several reasons including the inclusion of critical care or observation services in the ED, discrepancies between facility and provider billing regulations, and operational decisions of each definition.ConclusionCurrent operational definitions of ED visitation using administrative claims produce different estimates of ED visitation based on the underlying assumptions applied to billing data and data set availability. Future analyses using administrative claims data should seek to validate specific definitions and inform the development of a consistent, consensus ED visitation definitions to standardize research reporting and the interpretation of policy interventions.Peer Reviewedhttps://deepblue.lib.umich.edu/bitstream/2027.42/136706/1/acem13140_am.pdfhttps://deepblue.lib.umich.edu/bitstream/2027.42/136706/2/acem13140-sup-0001-DataSupplementS1.pdfhttps://deepblue.lib.umich.edu/bitstream/2027.42/136706/3/acem13140.pdfhttps://deepblue.lib.umich.edu/bitstream/2027.42/136706/4/acem13140-sup-0002-DataSupplementS2.pd
