Resource's Relationships in the Design of Collaborative Web Applications

At the moment of designing a web application, we usually run into the problem of how to deal with logical connections among resources. These connections have important implications in the operations that we take on a certain resource and its representation, as we could verify in the design of the collaborative web application that we have developed, the Virtual Conference Centre. For those reasons, in this paper we analyze the relationships among resources, especially focused on collaborative web applications, and we propose some solutions and good practices for the difficulties that we have encountered

Medición e interpretación de las vibraciones en estructuras de entrepiso dentro del subgrupo de ocupación l3 : discotecas y

"La dinámica estructural estudia los movimientos en las estructuras civiles, a su vez estudia el comportamiento de las estructuras causados por actividades rítmicas humanas, este caso en particular se denomina ""La Relación Humano Estructura"". El objetivo principal de este trabajo fue registrar, analizar he interpretar las vibraciones causadas por humanos en dos escenarios diferentes, dos gimnasios y una discoteca en la ciudad de Bogotá para comparar los resultados de los registros con los limites internacionales de precepción humana de las vibraciones de la estructura. Para el análisis de los registros de aceleración tomados en campo se generó un modelo numérico de cada escenarios, para estimar el primer modo fundamental de vibración y el desplazamiento inducido, a su vez se estimo mediante una relación matemática el nivel de esfuerzos inducido en el entrepiso, el desplazamiento del entrepiso en campo y la carga que genera dicho desplazamientos en campo."Ingeniero (a) CivilPregrad

Effect of changes in moderate or vigorous physical activity on changes in health-related quality of life of elderly British women over seven years.

PURPOSE: This study investigates the effect of changes in moderate or vigorous physical activity (MVPA) on trajectories in health-related quality of life (HR-QoL) over 7 years in British elderly women. METHODS: A total of 1,926 women from the British Women's Heart and Health Study with information on MVPA and HR-QoL [measured using Euro quality of life 5 dimension (EQ-5D)] at baseline and at 7 years of follow-up were included in the analysis. Baseline and 7-year follow-up MVPA values were categorised into 3 groups, generating 9 categories of change in MVPA. Logistic regression was used to obtain odds ratios (ORs) of maintaining or improving HR-QoL according to different patterns of change in MVPA level. RESULTS: Women who remained inactive over the 7 years of follow-up had the largest reduction in their EQ-5D scores. Compared to these women, women that increased their MPVA level from "inactive" to "low" or to "moderate-high" were more likely to maintain or improve their HR-QoL over 7 years (ORs 1.65 or 2.70, respectively, p value for trend <0.001). After adjustment for baseline EQ-5D score and a wide range of potential confounders, results remained largely unchanged, though precision of the estimates generally decreased. CONCLUSIONS: Our findings suggest that relatively regular MVPA, even taken up later in life, can help older women prevent a decline in HR-QoL and even improve their enjoyment of life

A new approach to understanding labour supply of disabled people : The efects of job-type characteristics on participation decisions.

ABSTRACT: The main interest of this article is to propose an individual utility maximization model to explain the low participation of disabled people. We account for heterogeneity of preferences and furthermore time of self-caring for disabled individuals is considered as an argument in the utility function. The hours of work decided by disabled individuals are neither homogeneous (they depend on unknown characteristics) nor continuous (discrete choice sets). We use data of 4790 households from the Spanish Survey of Disability, Personal Autonomy and Dependency and find association between time of informal care and labour participation and, consequently, the choice between jobs

Characteristics of Heart Rate Tracings in Preterm Fetus

We thank K. Shashok for translating the original manuscript into English.Background and Objectives: Prematurity is currently a serious public health issue worldwide, because of its high associated morbidity and mortality. Optimizing the management of these pregnancies is of high priority to improve perinatal outcomes. One tool frequently used to determine the degree of fetal wellbeing is cardiotocography (CTG). A review of the available literature on fetal heart rate (FHR) monitoring in preterm fetuses shows that studies are scarce, and the evidence thus far is unclear. The lack of reference standards for CTG patterns in preterm fetuses can lead to misinterpretation of the changes observed in electronic fetal monitoring (EFM). The aims of this narrative review were to summarize the most relevant concepts in the field of CTG interpretation in preterm fetuses, and to provide a practical approach that can be useful in clinical practice. Materials and Methods: A MEDLINE search was carried out, and the published articles thus identified were reviewed. Results: Compared to term fetuses, preterm fetuses have a slightly higher baseline FHR. Heart rate is faster in more immature fetuses, and variability is lower and increases in more mature fetuses. Transitory, low-amplitude decelerations are more frequent during the second trimester. Transitory increases in FHR are less frequent and become more frequent and increase in amplitude as gestational age increases. Conclusions: The main characteristics of FHR tracings changes as gestation proceeds, and it is of fundamental importance to be aware of these changes in order to correctly interpret CTG patterns in preterm fetuses

Visión Futura

45 páginasSe encontró que Colombia es un país relativamente grande en la región, tanto en tamaño como en población, así mismo, al contar con una población cercana a los 50 millones y todavía ser considerado un país pobre y del tercer mundo que a pesar de sus esfuerzos por salir adelante, no brinda oportunidades dignas e igualdad de condiciones al millón de habitantes con dificultades visuales que viven en este país. Así mismo esta población vulnerable no cuenta con ingresos comentarios estables, lo cual genera que no puedan afiliarse a un régimen pensional o incluso, de salud. Creando una dependencia mayor de sus familiares y amigos por mas que estas personas en una gran proporción, se consideren aptas para trabajar. Con esta problemática detectada y encontrando esta población desprotegida. Nace la iniciativa de “Visión Futura”. El proyecto planteado es una solución para las personas invidentes que no tienen oportunidades labores dignas a sus necesidades. Visión Futura exige a estos colaboradores que cuenten con acceso a computadores, internet y un manejo básico e estos. Sino se tiene, nosotros le ayudamos a conseguirlo, sin animo de lucro. Cuando ya se cuente con el equipo, estos deberán someterse a unas capacitaciones de la línea de producto que se va a ofrecer (tecnología, suministros de impresión y servicios relacionados). De tal forma que el producto sea uniforme
