    El presente trabajo se inserta en la disciplina Comunicación Visual del Diseño Gráfico, en relación con la Educación Ambiental y la Sustentabilidad Energética. Se exponen resultados parciales obtenidos del análisis semiótico visual referido a las campañas existentes de concientización ambiental, de carácter nacional e internacional, orientadas al consumo eficiente y responsable de energía. El estudio tiene como objetivo concientizar sobre la temática eficiencia energética a través del lenguaje visual y además impulsar y generar estrategias de comunicación basadas en la educación ambiental del uso de recursos energéticos fósiles y por tanto no renovables, para que el empleo de los mismos se base en decisiones tomadas a partir de la participación consciente y del consumo responsable. Se diseña un modelo de análisis que permita precisar las características semióticas del código icónico inherente al mensaje visual, en función de recursos gráficos, imagen y color. El estudio está fundamentado en el análisis semiótico de esta forma discursiva sustentado en la teoría de Carreto Hernández. Los resultados muestran una fuerte tendencia a privilegiar imágenes con un alto grado de iconicidad y representación, vinculadas con la estética y la técnica fotográfica; una intensa carga de significaciones referidas a la toma de conciencia y un predominio de colores altamente contrastantes y de gran importancia entre los elementos que componen la imagen.This work is part of the Visual Communication Graphic design discipline in relation to environmental education and Energy Sustainability. obtained partial results of visual semiotic analysis based on existing environmental awareness campaigns, national and international, aimed at efficient and responsible energy consumption are presented. The study aims to design a model of analysis to clarify the semiotic characteristics inherent iconic code to visual message, depending on graphics resources, image and color. A critical study based on the semiotic analysis of this discursive form based on the theory of Carreto Hernandez is performed. The results show a strong tendency to favor images with a high degree of iconicity and representation, linked to aesthetics and photographic technique; heavy load of meanings related to awareness and a predominance of highly contrasting colors and of great importance among the elements that make up the image.Tema 10: Educación y capacitación en energías renovables y uso racional de la energía.Facultad de Arquitectura y Urbanism

    COVID-19 symptoms at hospital admission vary with age and sex: results from the ISARIC prospective multinational observational study

    Background: The ISARIC prospective multinational observational study is the largest cohort of hospitalized patients with COVID-19. We present relationships of age, sex, and nationality to presenting symptoms. Methods: International, prospective observational study of 60 109 hospitalized symptomatic patients with laboratory-confirmed COVID-19 recruited from 43 countries between 30 January and 3 August 2020. Logistic regression was performed to evaluate relationships of age and sex to published COVID-19 case definitions and the most commonly reported symptoms. Results: ‘Typical’ symptoms of fever (69%), cough (68%) and shortness of breath (66%) were the most commonly reported. 92% of patients experienced at least one of these. Prevalence of typical symptoms was greatest in 30- to 60-year-olds (respectively 80, 79, 69%; at least one 95%). They were reported less frequently in children (≤ 18 years: 69, 48, 23; 85%), older adults (≥ 70 years: 61, 62, 65; 90%), and women (66, 66, 64; 90%; vs. men 71, 70, 67; 93%, each P < 0.001). The most common atypical presentations under 60 years of age were nausea and vomiting and abdominal pain, and over 60 years was confusion. Regression models showed significant differences in symptoms with sex, age and country. Interpretation: This international collaboration has allowed us to report reliable symptom data from the largest cohort of patients admitted to hospital with COVID-19. Adults over 60 and children admitted to hospital with COVID-19 are less likely to present with typical symptoms. Nausea and vomiting are common atypical presentations under 30 years. Confusion is a frequent atypical presentation of COVID-19 in adults over 60 years. Women are less likely to experience typical symptoms than men

    La Sociología realiza aportes a disciplinas referidas al hombre; contribuye al Diseño Industrial y Gráfico con consideraciones específicas como: categorías y lógicas de pensamiento que abordan la realidad dinámica con un sentido reflexivo y crítico, de grupos sociales con necesidades y estilos de vida diferentes dentro del conjunto en general. Permite reconocer la influencia de escuelas contemporáneas y las dimensiones ocultas de sentido común dentro de un determinado contexto

    Liraglutide improves adipose tissue remodeling and mitochondrial dynamics in a visceral obesity model induced by a high-fat diet

    No full text
    Central obesity is characterized by visceral adipose tissue (VAT) expansion, considered one of the main risk factors for metabolic complications. In recent years, new drugs have been studied for obesity treatment. Liraglutide (LGT), a GLP-1 agonist, decreases body weight, however, several mechanisms of action on VAT are still unknown. Aim: to study the effect of LGT on factors associated with VAT remodeling and mitochondrial dynamics in mice fed a high-fat diet (HFD). Methods: C57BL/6 mice were divided into Control (C) and HFD. After 15 weeks of feeding, each group was subdivided according to LGT administration for 5 weeks: C, C + LGT, HFD, and HFD + LGT. In epididymal AT (EAT) we evaluated histological and mitochondrial characteristics, vascularity, gelatinase activity (MMPs), and galectin-3 expression. Results: HFD presented larger adipocytes (p < 0.05), and lower vascular density and MMP-9 activity (p < 0.01) than C, while a major number of smaller adipocytes (p < 0.05) and an increase in vascularity (p < 0.001) and MMP-9 activity (p < 0.01) was observed in HFD + LGT. Collagen content was higher (p < 0.05) in EAT from HFD and decreased in HFD + LGT. In C, C + LGT, and HFD + LGT, mitochondria were predominantly tubular-shaped while in HFD mitochondria were mostly spherical (p < 0.001). Conclusion: LGT positively influences VAT behavior by modulating gelatinase activity, enhancing vascularization, and improving adipocyte histological characteristics. Additionally, LGT improves mitochondrial dynamics, a process that would favor VAT functionality
