Methodologies and tools of risk management: Hurricane Risk index (HRi)
Mexico is recognized worldwide for the extension of its coastlines and its tourist exploitation. Quintana Roo is one of the Mexican states, which has a shoreline of approximately 800 km, known as the Mexican Caribbean. The hurricanes that form in the Atlantic Ocean are the main natural hazard to which this region is exposed. In this article, hurricane risk is evaluated for coastal cities through the definition of a system of indicators. Based on this indicators system, the Hurricane Risk Index (HRi) is calculated. This system allows the construction of vulnerability indices for different dimensions: physical, environmental, social, economic, cultural and institutional. The obtained results can contribute to the definition of public prevention policies and actions to reduce the levels of vulnerability and increase the resilience of these communities. This indicators model is applied to two coastal cities of the Mexican Caribbean; Mahahual, obtaining an HRi of 82.13%, and Chetumal obtaining an HRi of 69.31%, corresponding to the impact of Hurricane Dean in 2007. The proposed indicators system can be replicated for different hazards.Peer ReviewedPostprint (author's final draft
Impacto del teletrabajo en el nivel de compromiso laboral (engagement) y de agotamiento de los docentes del Tecnológico Nacional de México en la pandemia COVID 19 y el retorno a la nueva normalidad.
This article have the purpose to determinate the impact that was had on the teachers of the National Technological Institute of Mexico in terms of the level of their commitment and exhaustion work during the times of COVID-19 pandemic, performing their teaching function throught teleworking, to carry out this study to work was carried out in collaboration with CIRCULAR HR Fundación Chile y UNESCO WHEC (World Higher Education Conference 2022), 1994 surveys were applied to teachers of all the categories of the Technological System. This instrument was applied in different universities convened by UNESCO, in total were 3351 surveys and the Technological System help the 59.5% of the information for this study. As part of the results obtained, it was found that if there were differences on the level of exhaustion depending on the main function of each teaching category and the gender, but the level of commitment remained the same regardless of seniority, gender or category in which teacher was.El presente artículo tiene como finalidad determinar cuál fue el impacto que se tuvo en los docentes del Tecnológico Nacional de México en cuanto a su nivel de compromiso y el agotamiento laboral durante los tiempos de pandemia COVID-19 realizando su funciones docentes a través del teletrabajo, para llevar a cabo este estudio se trabajó en colaboración con CIRCULAR HR Fundación Chile Y UNESCO WHEC (World Higher Education Conference 2022), se aplicaron 1994 encuestas a docentes de todas las categorías del Sistema Tecnológico. Este instrumento fue aplicado a diferentes universidades convocadas por la UNESCO, en total fueron 3351 encuestas y el Sistema Tecnológico aportó el 59.5% de la información para este estudio. Como parte de los resultados obtenidos se encontró que si hay diferencias en nivel de agotamiento dependiendo de la función principal de cada categoría docente y el género, pero el nivel de compromiso se mantenía igual independientemente de la antigüedad, género o categoría en la que estuviera el docente
The origin and speciation of orchids
SummaryOrchids constitute one of the most spectacular radiations of flowering plants. However, their origin, spread across the globe, and hotspots of speciation remain uncertain due to the lack of an up-to-date phylogeographic analysis.We present a new Orchidaceae phylogeny based on combined high-throughput and Sanger sequencing data, covering all five subfamilies, 17/22 tribes, 40/49 subtribes, 285/736 genera, and c. 7% (1921) of the 29 524 accepted species, and use it to infer geographic range evolution, diversity, and speciation patterns by adding curated geographical distributions from the World Checklist of Vascular Plants.The orchids' most recent common ancestor is inferred to have lived in Late Cretaceous Laurasia. The modern range of Apostasioideae, which comprises two genera with 16 species from India to northern Australia, is interpreted as relictual, similar to that of numerous other groups that went extinct at higher latitudes following the global climate cooling during the Oligocene. Despite their ancient origin, modern orchid species diversity mainly originated over the last 5 Ma, with the highest speciation rates in Panama and Costa Rica.These results alter our understanding of the geographic origin of orchids, previously proposed as Australian, and pinpoint Central America as a region of recent, explosive speciation
Calidad de la atención en una institución pediátrica
Introducción: To know the situation of quality of
care in a third level pediatric hospital in the area of
external consultation
Material and Methods: A cross-sectional study was
conducted between January and July of 2016
through a personalized interview survey of family
members of the Hospital Infantil de México who
attended the outpatient clinic and asked questions
related to the care given, focused on the area of
nursing.
Results: A total of 400 users were included. The age
of participants was between 18 and 56 years old,
with a high school education or lower in 66% (n =
264). Half of the users reported that the nurse was
present and in the vast majority of cases I cordially
greet them; In addition to explaining the procedures
that had to be carried out. Despite the fact that
up to 80% of users knew that they could complain
about maltreatment by hospital staff, up to 71% did
not identify where to perform it.
Conclusions: In general, the treatment of the nurse to
the relatives of the patients was good. A monitoring
and training program should be implemented for
health personnel involved in dealing directly with
the family member and the patient.Introducción: Este trabajo es el resultado de un estudio

de tercer nivel en el área de consulta externa.
Material y métodos: Se realizó un estudio transversal
en el periodo de enero a julio de 2016 mediante una
encuesta por entrevista personalizada a familiares
de pacientes del Hospital Infantil de México quienes
asistieron a la consulta externa, en la cual se preguntaron
aspectos relacionados con la atención otorgada
por el personal de enfermería.
Resultados: Se incluyó un total de 400 usuarios. La
edad de los participantes fue entre 18 y 56 años,
con escolaridad de secundaria o menor en 66% (n=
264). La mitad de los usuarios refirieron que la enfermera
correspondiente se presentó y en la gran
mayoría de los casos los saludó cordialmente; además
les explicó los trámites que debían realizar. A

Understanding the impact of depressive symptoms in older-adults functionality Comprendiendo el impacto de los síntomas depresivos en la funcionalidad de las personas mayores
Introduction: Depression is the health conditions that generate a higher disease burden, where the older adults show a great impact related to this disease. The article describes the impact of depressive symptoms in the functional performance of older adults and seeks to understand the existing relationship between functional impairment and depressive symptoms. Method: a literature review was conducted of articles published between years 1990 to 2016. A narrative analysis was conducted with the finding literature. 40 articles were included. Results: One of the main repercussions is the functional impairment and the reduction in the daily life activities participation, related to a progressive dependency, higher fall risk and fear to falls, restriction and reduction of participation in meaningful activities, and worst rehabilitation and health care outcomes.

Worlds of creation of the indigenous peoples of Latin America
Los pueblos indígenas que habitaron y habitan las tierras americanas viven en sus creaciones y estas, a su vez, viven en sus creadores y comunidades. A través de ellas podemos acercarnos a mundos diversos en los cuales se relacionan e integran su territorio, su espiritualidad, sus principios fundamentales para la permanencia de la vida, sus modos de pensamiento, sus conocimientos ancestrales y sus prácticas culturales. Para profundizar en estos procesos, este libro reúne quince trabajos realizados por distintos conocedores que se han acercado a los mundos de creación de los pueblos indígenas americanos.
Todas estas aproximaciones nos permiten percibir las diversas relaciones existentes entre seres naturales, humanos y sobrenaturales a través de las acciones de creación y las creaciones indígenas. Además, nos presentan el conocimiento de diversos principios que orientan la creación y configuración de imágenes y objetos que, por un lado, son signos de identidad y que, por otro, nos permiten comprender el sentido fundamental de la vida de los pueblos indígenas, su modo de ser y estar en la tierra y el cosmos. Así, se abren nuevos espacios de discusión y acercamiento que invitan a reflexionar sobre una pregunta fundamental: ¿las creaciones objetuales indígenas son arte, artesanía o diseño o, más bien, hacen parte de otros mundos de creación diversos?Bogot
