Necro-spaces and Violent Homicides in Mexico

This article focuses on the spatial autocorrelation of homicidal violence and the presence of groups that have the capacity to exercise sovereignty. These actors possess necro-power and operate sometimes within, sometimes outside the framework of the law. They are sometimes in opposition to one another, while at other times they operate in a coordinated fashion. Their presence gives form to what we shall call necro-spaces: places where different actors (hitmen, dealers, the police or the military) spread death and destruction, in indefinite confrontations with no foreseeable victor. The methodology of our analysis of the spatial autocorrelation of homicidal violence at the municipal level in the years 2005, 2010 and 2015 enabled us to connect the spatial relationships among the homicides with descriptions of the groups that build regimes of violence in those spaces

Determinación de hormonas tiroideas e hipotiroidismo subclínico y sobrepeso en pacientes que acuden al laboratorio Blood Care de Ambato en el periodo 2023

Untreated subclinical hypothyroidism can have multiple effects on the health and quality of life of the patient; therefore, the aim of this study was to determine the relationship between the presence of subclinical hypothyroidism, thyroid hormone levels, and overweight in patients attending the Blood Care laboratory in Ambato during the period 2023. A non-experimental retrospective study with a quantitative and cross-sectional methodological approach was conducted, with a descriptive and correlational scope. A sample of 50 patients who met the inclusion criteria, consisting of adults with obesity and of legal age, attending the Blood Care laboratory, was selected. Data were collected from the laboratory logs and processed using the Excel statistical program. The results showed a trend towards a slight increase in the proportion of patients with slightly elevated TSH levels in the overweight and obesity type I groups, although no significant differences were found in thyroid hormone levels between patients with and without overweight. The prevalence of subclinical hypothyroidism was 12%, highlighting the importance of considering this condition in clinical diagnosis and management. Additionally, a predominance of women with overweight or obesity was observed among patients with subclinical hypothyroidism. Therefore, this study provided valuable insight into the relationship between subclinical hypothyroidism, thyroid hormone levels, and overweight in patients, emphasizing the importance of regularly assessing thyroid function in patients with overweight or obesity.  El hipotiroidismo subclínico no tratado puede tener múltiples efectos en la salud y la calidad de vida del paciente; por lo que, el objetivo de este estudio fue determinar la relación entre la presencia de hipotiroidismo subclínico, los niveles de hormonas tiroideas y el sobrepeso en pacientes que acuden al laboratorio Blood Care de Ambato durante el periodo 2023. Se llevó a cabo un estudio no experimental retrospectivo de enfoque metodológico cuantitativo y de tipo transversal, con alcance descriptivo y correlacional. Se seleccionó una muestra de 50 pacientes que cumplían los criterios de inclusión, siendo adultos con obesidad y mayores de edad, que asistían al laboratorio Blood Care. Los datos fueron recopilados de las bitácoras del laboratorio y procesados utilizando el programa Excel. Los resultados mostraron una tendencia hacia un ligero aumento en la proporción de pacientes con niveles ligeramente elevados de TSH en los grupos de sobrepeso y obesidad tipo I, aunque no se encontraron diferencias significativas en los niveles de hormonas tiroideas entre pacientes con y sin sobrepeso. La prevalencia de hipotiroidismo subclínico fue del 12%, destacando la importancia de considerar esta condición en el diagnóstico y manejo clínico. Además, se observó una predominancia de mujeres con sobrepeso u obesidad entre los pacientes con hipotiroidismo subclínico. Por lo que, el presente estudio proporcionó una visión importante sobre la relación entre el hipotiroidismo subclínico, los niveles de hormonas tiroideas y el sobrepeso en pacientes, destacando la importancia de evaluar regularmente la función tiroidea en pacientes con sobrepeso u obesidad

Efecto del ácido indol-3-acético y el acido naftalenacético sobre el largo y ancho del fruto de melón (Cucumis melo L.) cultivar Edisto 47 | Effect of indole-3-acetic acid and naphthalene acetic acid on length and width of muskmelon (Cucumis melo L.) fruit cv. Edisto 47

determina la aceptación del consumidor. El objetivo fue evaluar el efecto de diferentes dosis de acido índol acético (AIA) y ácido naftaleno acético (ANA) y épocas de aplicación sobre el largo y ancho del fruto de melón (Cucumis melo L.) cv. Edisto 47. Las plantas se asperjaron con AIA y ANA en las dosis de 0, 50, 100, 150 y 200 mg L-1 de cada uno, a los 7, 14 y 21 días después de la floración (DDF). El diseño estadístico utilizado fue parcelas subsubdivididas con tres repeticiones. Las parcelas principales fueron las épocas de aplicación, las subparcelas las dosis de los reguladores AIA y ANA y las subsubparcelas los reguladores. El AIA no influyó en el largo del fruto de melón cuando se aplicó a diferentes dosis y épocas. El ANA redujo el largo del fruto cuando se aplicó a los 7 DDF en las dosis de 100, 150 y 200 mg L-1. El AIA redujo el ancho del fruto con respecto al ANA cuando ambos se aplicaron a los 14 DDF. Los frutos de melón más anchos se obtuvieron con la aplicación de la ANA (50 y 100 mg L-1).Palabras clave: Ácido índol acético, ácido naftaleno acético, aplicación foliar, melón.ABSTRACTThe fruit size is important because it is a production component and also determines the consumer acceptance. The objective was to evaluate the effect of different doses of indole-3-acetic acid (IAA) and naphthalene acetic acid (NAA) and periods of application on fruit length and width of muskmelon (Cucumis melo L.) cv. Edisto 47. Plants were sprayed with IAA and NAA at 0, 50, 100, 150 and 200 mg L-1 each at 7, 14 and 21 days after flowering (DAS). A split split plot design was used with three replications. Main plots were the application period, the sub plots were the IAA and NAA doses and the sub sub plots were IAA and NAA. IAA did not affect on fruit length of muskmelon when it was applied at different doses and periods. NAA decreased fruit length when it was applied at 100, 150 and 200 mg L-1 at 7 DAS. IAA decreased fruitwidth in comparison with NAA when both were applied at 14 DAS. The widest muskmelon fruits were obtained with the application of NAA (50 and 100 mg L-1) and length of fruit is not significantly affected by AIA doses different and times application. The application of 100 mg L-1 NAA, 7 dff decreased the length of fruit.Key words: IAA, foliar application, NAA, muskmelon, growth regulato

Colombia propone disminuir 51% sus emisiones para el 2030. : Aporte de la construcción sostenible y el uso de concreto polimérico

The Sustainable Development Goals and the Paris Agreement are guiding the world towards inclusivesustainability for all beings on Earth. Colombia is a biodiverse country by nature and, for this reason cannotrefuse to participate actively in environmental, social, and economic commitments, which required prioritiesidentification and executing resilient actions due to climate change and also, the reduction of greenhousegases in its industrial processes. The construction sector has been one of the most affected by the COVID-19 pandemic. Therefore, its reactivation is one of the solutions for the economic development in whatever nation. However, several processes and activities that the sector has traditionally developed for years must be reconsidered and, in this moment technological tools exist to improve them. It is necessary to live the transition with an open mindto new knowledge that will be beneficial for everyone.Los Objetivos de Desarrollo Sostenible y el acuerdo de París dirigen el mundo hacia la sostenibilidad inclusiva para todos los seres de la Tierra. Colombia al ser un país biodiverso por naturaleza, no puede negarse a participar activamente de los compromisos ambientales, sociales y económicos identificando prioridades y ejecutando acciones requeridas para la adaptación al cambio climático y la disminución de gases de efecto invernadero en sus procesos industriales El sector construcción ha sido de los grandes afectados con la pandemia por COVID-19 y a su vez es una de las soluciones para la reactivación económica de un país. Sin embargo, deben reconsiderarse varios procesos y actividades que el sector ha desarrollado tradicionalmente por años y ahora las herramientas tecnológicas existen para mejorarlos. Hay que vivir la transición con la mente abierta a nuevos conocimientos que serán beneficiosos para todos

Galactic angular momentum in the IllustrisTNG simulation -- I. Connection to morphology, halo spin, and black hole mass

We use the TNG100 simulation of the IllustrisTNG project to investigate the stellar specific angular momenta ($j_{\ast}$) of $\sim$12~000 central galaxies at $z=0$ in a full cosmological context, with stellar masses ($M_{\ast}$) ranging from $10^{9}$ to $10^{12} \, {\rm M}_{\odot}$. We find that the $j_{\ast}$--$M_{\ast}$ relations for early-type and late-type galaxies in IllustrisTNG are in good overall agreement with observations, and that these galaxy types typically `retain' $\sim$10--20 and $\sim$50--60 per cent of their host haloes' specific angular momenta, respectively, with some dependence on the methodology used to measure galaxy morphology. We present results for \textit{kinematic} as well as \textit{visual-like} morphological measurements of the simulated galaxies. Next, we explore the scatter in the $j_{\ast}$--$M_{\ast}$ relation with respect to the spin of the dark matter halo and the mass of the supermassive black hole (BH) at the galactic centre. We find that galaxies residing in faster-spinning haloes, as well as those hosting less massive BHs, tend to have a higher specific angular momentum. We also find that, at fixed galaxy or halo mass, halo spin and BH mass are anticorrelated with each other, probably as a consequence of more efficient gas flow toward the galactic centre in slowly rotating systems. Finally, we show that halo spin plays an important role in determining galaxy sizes -- larger discs form at the centres of faster-rotating haloes -- although the trend breaks down for massive galaxies with $M_{\ast} \gtrsim 10^{11} \, {\rm M}_{\odot}$, roughly the mass scale at which a galaxy's stellar mass becomes dominated by accreted stars.Comment: 17 pages, 11 figures.

Efficacy and safety of enzyme replacement therapy with BMN 110 (elosulfase alfa) for Morquio A syndrome (mucopolysaccharidosis IVA): a phase 3 randomised placebo-controlled study.

ObjectiveTo assess the efficacy and safety of enzyme replacement therapy (ERT) with BMN 110 (elosulfase alfa) in patients with Morquio A syndrome (mucopolysaccharidosis IVA).MethodsPatients with Morquio A aged ≥5 years (N = 176) were randomised (1:1:1) to receive elosulfase alfa 2.0 mg/kg/every other week (qow), elosulfase alfa 2.0 mg/kg/week (weekly) or placebo for 24 weeks in this phase 3, double-blind, randomised study. The primary efficacy measure was 6-min walk test (6MWT) distance. Secondary efficacy measures were 3-min stair climb test (3MSCT) followed by change in urine keratan sulfate (KS). Various exploratory measures included respiratory function tests. Patient safety was also evaluated.ResultsAt week 24, the estimated mean effect on the 6MWT versus placebo was 22.5 m (95 % CI 4.0, 40.9; P = 0.017) for weekly and 0.5 m (95 % CI -17.8, 18.9; P = 0.954) for qow. The estimated mean effect on 3MSCT was 1.1 stairs/min (95 % CI -2.1, 4.4; P = 0.494) for weekly and -0.5 stairs/min (95 % CI -3.7, 2.8; P = 0.778) for qow. Normalised urine KS was reduced at 24 weeks in both regimens. In the weekly dose group, 22.4 % of patients had adverse events leading to an infusion interruption/discontinuation requiring medical intervention (only 1.3 % of all infusions in this group) over 6 months. No adverse events led to permanent treatment discontinuation.ConclusionsElosulfase alfa improved endurance as measured by the 6MWT in the weekly but not qow dose group, did not improve endurance on the 3MSCT, reduced urine KS, and had an acceptable safety profile
