Diseño del sistema de seguridad de la Universidad de Granma.

The network of the University of Granma, Bayamo, Cuba, is one of the largest in the province: it covers the thirteen municipalities that make it up, since its servers provide various services to each of the university campuses (extensions) that exist in each province region. Despite the fact that it has been in service and in operation for 25 years, there has never been an event that has compromised both the security of its systems and the integrity of the information stored on its servers, and this is due to strict compliance with the security and protection measures established from the outset and, above all, to the design of a robust computer security system, which consists of the use and application of a combined strategy of different sub-systems, which has evolved over time and seeks, on the one hand, to achieve the maximum possible approximation of the service level expected (SLAs) of the network, to international standards (99.9%) and, on the other, to guarantee the integrity and availability of the information that is stored on the servers. stores. That is why this work aims to expose and share the actions that were carried out to implement the Network Security System of the University of Granma.La red de la Universidad de Granma, Bayamo, Cuba, es una de las más grandes de la provincia que lleva su nombre: abarca los trece municipios que la forman, pues sus servidores brindan diversos servicios a cada una de las sedes universitarias (extensiones) que existen en cada región de la provincia. A pesar de que ya lleva 25 años de servicio y funcionamiento,  nunca ha existido un hecho que haya comprometido tanto la seguridad de sus sistemas, como la integridad de la información que en sus servidores se almacena, y ello se debe al estricto cumplimiento de las medidas de seguridad y protección establecidas desde un primer momento y sobre todo, al diseño de un robusto sistema de seguridad informática, el cual consiste en la utilización y aplicación de una estrategia combinada de diferentes sub sistemas, que ha ido evolucionando con el transcurso del tiempo y persigue, por una parte, lograr el máximo acercamiento posible del nivel de servicio esperado (SLAs) de la red, a los estándares internacionales (99.9%) y por otra, garantizar la integridad y la disponibilidad de la información que en los servidores se almacena. Es por ello que este trabajo tiene como objetivo exponer y compartir las acciones que se llevaron a cabo, para implementar el Sistema de Seguridad de la red de la Universidad de Granma, en el cual se realiza un estudio descriptivo de las herramientas de seguridad y gestión existentes y del modo en que el mismo evolucionó y desarrolló

The Changing Landscape for Stroke\ua0Prevention in AF: Findings From the GLORIA-AF Registry Phase 2

Background GLORIA-AF (Global Registry on Long-Term Oral Antithrombotic Treatment in Patients with Atrial Fibrillation) is a prospective, global registry program describing antithrombotic treatment patterns in patients with newly diagnosed nonvalvular atrial fibrillation at risk of stroke. Phase 2 began when dabigatran, the first non\u2013vitamin K antagonist oral anticoagulant (NOAC), became available. Objectives This study sought to describe phase 2 baseline data and compare these with the pre-NOAC era collected during phase 1. Methods During phase 2, 15,641 consenting patients were enrolled (November 2011 to December 2014); 15,092 were eligible. This pre-specified cross-sectional analysis describes eligible patients\u2019 baseline characteristics. Atrial fibrillation disease characteristics, medical outcomes, and concomitant diseases and medications were collected. Data were analyzed using descriptive statistics. Results Of the total patients, 45.5% were female; median age was 71 (interquartile range: 64, 78) years. Patients were from Europe (47.1%), North America (22.5%), Asia (20.3%), Latin America (6.0%), and the Middle East/Africa (4.0%). Most had high stroke risk (CHA2DS2-VASc [Congestive heart failure, Hypertension, Age  6575 years, Diabetes mellitus, previous Stroke, Vascular disease, Age 65 to 74 years, Sex category] score  652; 86.1%); 13.9% had moderate risk (CHA2DS2-VASc = 1). Overall, 79.9% received oral anticoagulants, of whom 47.6% received NOAC and 32.3% vitamin K antagonists (VKA); 12.1% received antiplatelet agents; 7.8% received no antithrombotic treatment. For comparison, the proportion of phase 1 patients (of N = 1,063 all eligible) prescribed VKA was 32.8%, acetylsalicylic acid 41.7%, and no therapy 20.2%. In Europe in phase 2, treatment with NOAC was more common than VKA (52.3% and 37.8%, respectively); 6.0% of patients received antiplatelet treatment; and 3.8% received no antithrombotic treatment. In North America, 52.1%, 26.2%, and 14.0% of patients received NOAC, VKA, and antiplatelet drugs, respectively; 7.5% received no antithrombotic treatment. NOAC use was less common in Asia (27.7%), where 27.5% of patients received VKA, 25.0% antiplatelet drugs, and 19.8% no antithrombotic treatment. Conclusions The baseline data from GLORIA-AF phase 2 demonstrate that in newly diagnosed nonvalvular atrial fibrillation patients, NOAC have been highly adopted into practice, becoming more frequently prescribed than VKA in Europe and North America. Worldwide, however, a large proportion of patients remain undertreated, particularly in Asia and North America.

Unraveling Amazon tree community assembly using Maximum Information Entropy: a quantitative analysis of tropical forest ecology

In a time of rapid global change, the question of what determines patterns in species abundance distribution remains a priority for understanding the complex dynamics of ecosystems. The constrained maximization of information entropy provides a framework for the understanding of such complex systems dynamics by a quantitative analysis of important constraints via predictions using least biased probability distributions. We apply it to over two thousand hectares of Amazonian tree inventories across seven forest types and thirteen functional traits, representing major global axes of plant strategies. Results show that constraints formed by regional relative abundances of genera explain eight times more of local relative abundances than constraints based on directional selection for specific functional traits, although the latter does show clear signals of environmental dependency. These results provide a quantitative insight by inference from large-scale data using cross-disciplinary methods, furthering our understanding of ecological dynamics

The Helicobacter pylori Genome Project : insights into H. pylori population structure from analysis of a worldwide collection of complete genomes

Helicobacter pylori, a dominant member of the gastric microbiota, shares co-evolutionary history with humans. This has led to the development of genetically distinct H. pylori subpopulations associated with the geographic origin of the host and with differential gastric disease risk. Here, we provide insights into H. pylori population structure as a part of the Helicobacter pylori Genome Project (HpGP), a multi-disciplinary initiative aimed at elucidating H. pylori pathogenesis and identifying new therapeutic targets. We collected 1011 well-characterized clinical strains from 50 countries and generated high-quality genome sequences. We analysed core genome diversity and population structure of the HpGP dataset and 255 worldwide reference genomes to outline the ancestral contribution to Eurasian, African, and American populations. We found evidence of substantial contribution of population hpNorthAsia and subpopulation hspUral in Northern European H. pylori. The genomes of H. pylori isolated from northern and southern Indigenous Americans differed in that bacteria isolated in northern Indigenous communities were more similar to North Asian H. pylori while the southern had higher relatedness to hpEastAsia. Notably, we also found a highly clonal yet geographically dispersed North American subpopulation, which is negative for the cag pathogenicity island, and present in 7% of sequenced US genomes. We expect the HpGP dataset and the corresponding strains to become a major asset for H. pylori genomics
