Educación valórica inclusiva y los desafíos de la educación religiosa para ser garante de tolerancia e inclusión social
Authors: Guerrero Díaz Tatiana Patricia
Published: March 2020

La clase de religión es un escenario de interacción educativa que no ha estado exento de las tensiones propias de su naturaleza evangelizadora y doctrinaria. Hoy en una sociedad convulsionada, cambiante y tendiente a la secularización; la clase de educación religiosa se posiciona esencialmente como un espacio de desarrollo y aprendizaje para la expresión de la libertad de conciencia y del derecho al juicio privado; espacio donde convergen las diferentes cosmovisiones históricas, culturales y teológicas de una comunidad que cohabita en el mismo espacio educativo y sobre la cual el profesor tiene el desafío de garantizar la inclusión y tolerancia en la aproximación respetuosa y empática hacia las diferentes alteridades de sus estudiantes. Es concluyente conocer el funcionamiento y normativa que rige las clases de religión en Chile, para situar en el contexto global las diferencias y similitudes del abordaje a la clase de religión en la educacional formal y el curriculum en ella representado, considerando las variantes epocales, de un sistema educativo que ha sido permeado por la visión religiosa colonizante y que se ha sido transformado vertiginosamente por medio de las transiciones que le han sucedido, lo que deviene en que el profesor de religión deba aguzar sus sentidos y ser creativo en las formas de comunicarse con los estudiantes, atendiendo a las nuevas aproximaciones epistemológicas , no solamente de la educación inclusiva, sino también desde los diálogos interreligiosos y ecuménicos, con miras a replantear y eventualmente reemplazar el subsector de religión por asignaturas de ética, axiología y religiones comparadas.

Published: March 2020

Ruang norm-2 merupakan perluasan dari ruang norm yang telah kita kenal. Ruang norm-2 dan perumumannya ruang norm-n (𝑛≥2), pertama kali diperkenalkan oleh Gähler pada tahun 1960-an, [3, 4, 5, 6]. Kemudian Misiak di tahun 1989 memperkenalkan ruang hasil kali dalam-n (𝑛≥2) [16]. Setelah itu, banyak peneliti yang mengkaji sifat-sifat ataupun aspek-aspek dalam ruang norm-2 maupun ruang norm-n. Hal ini dapat dilihat pada beberapa penelitian dalam  [1,2,7,8,9,10,11,12,13,14,15,18,19]. Dalam penelitian ini aspek yang akan ditinjau adalah fungsional linear-2 terbatas pada ruang norm-2. Untuk meninjau beberapa sifatnya, sebelumnya akan diperkenalkan fungsional linear-2 di ruang norm-2 dengan beberapa tipe keterbatasn. Berdasarkan tipe keterbatasan ini akan dibentuk ruang-ruang dual. Ruang-ruang dual ini memuat semua fungsional linear-2 masing-masing berdasarkan tipe keterbatasannya. Selanjutnya akan ditunjukkan bahwa ruang-ruang dual ini ekuivalen.

Published: March 2020

The dynamics of a 2D positive system depends on the pair of nonnegative square matrices thatprovide the updating of its local states. In this paper, several spectral properties, like finitememory, separablility and property L, which depend on the characteristic polynomial of thepair, are investigated under the nonnegativity constraint and in connection with thecombinatorial structure of the matrices.Some aspects of the Perron-Frobenius theory are extended to the 2D case; in particular,conditions are provided guaranteeing the existence of a common maximal eigenvector for twononnegative matrices with irreducible sum. Finally, some results on 2D positive realizationsare presented

Published: March 2020

Kurs atau nilai tukar mata uang. Jenis kurs ada tiga macam, yaitu kurs jual, kurs beli, dan kurs tengah. Kurs dibutuhkan untuk menentukan sesuatu yang perlu dilakukan yang berkaitan dengan kurs itu misalnya keputusan investasi jangka pendek, keputusan penganggaran modal, keputusan pembiayaan jangka panjang, dan penilaian laba. Oleh karena itu, perlu dilakukan upaya untuk memprediksi besarnya kurs untuk beberapa waktu ke depan. Permasalahan yang dihadapi adalah cara untuk memprediksi besarnya kurs yang menghasilkan nilai prediksi dengan tingkat kesalahan yang minimal. Peramalan merupakan suatu proses untuk memprediksi kejadian ataupun perubahan di masa yang akan datang. Dalam suatu proses kegiatan, proses peramalan ini merupakan awal dari suatu rangkaian kegiatan, dan sebagai titik tolak kegiatan berikutnya. Pemodelan time series seringkali dikaitkan dengan proses peramalan (forecasting) suatu nilai karakteristik tertentu pada periode kedepan, melakukan pengendalian suatu proses ataupun untuk mengenali pola perilaku sistem. Dengan mendeteksi pola dan kecenderungan data, kemudian memformulasikannya dalam suatu model, maka dapat digunakan untuk memprediksi data yang akan datang. Model dengan akurasi yang tinggi akan menyebabkan nilai prediksi cukup valid untuk digunakan sebagai pendukung dalam proses pengambilan keputusan.Salah satu metode peramalan yang berkembang saat ini adalah menggunakan Artificial Neural Network (ANN), dimana ANN telah menjadi objek penelitian yang menarik dan banyak digunakan untuk menyelesaikan masalah pada beberapa bidang kehidupan, salah satu diantaranya adalah untuk analisis data time series pada masalah Forecasting (Loh, 2003). Salah satu jaringan yang sering digunakan untuk prediksi data time series adalah Backpropagation neuron network. Dalam penelitan ini akan dibahas mengenai penggunaan jaringan saraf tiruan backpropagation untuk memprediksi kurs jual Rupiah (Rp) per 1 dolar amerika (USD). Dalam penelitian ini akan dibagi sebanyak 70% dari data yang ada sebagai pelatihan dan 30% dari data sebagai data pengujian. Dan dalam penelitian ini digunakan data kurs bulan Oktober 2013-Januari 2014, yang diambil dari situs Bank Indonesia.

Selanjutnya data di uji dan memperoleh R sebesar 0,48638 yang berarti masih dikatakan baik untuk mempediksi data uji. Beberapa hal yang mempengaruhi hasil penelitian juga seperti data histories yang digunakan untuk variable masukkan JST kurang banyak, data yang digunakan untuk memprediksi kurs tidak bisa mewakili sebagai faktor utama yang mempengaruhi nilai kurs, dan batas nilai kesalahan yang kurang kecil serta kesesuaian bobot dalam arsitektur jaringan.
MADRES QUE EMIGRAN SIN SUS HIJOS: EXPERIENCIAS DE SEPARACIÓN, REENCUENTRO, ACOMODACIÓN E INTEGRACIÓN DE ADOLESCENTES INMIGRANTES DOMINICANOS DESPUÉS DE LA REUNIFICACIÓN FAMILIAR
Authors: Cabrera-Pérez Lidia
Published: March 2020

Las mujeres dominicanas han representado en las últimas décadas un modelo de emigración femenina transnacional. Una singularidad de este colectivo es que cuando deciden emigrar ya tienen varios hijos que dejan en la República Dominicana con parientes cercanos, hasta lograr la reunificación en el país de destino. En este trabajo mostramos los modos de relación que se establecen con sus hijos en la distancia; los modelos de crianza y estilos educativos de niños que viven sin sus madres; las repercusiones producidas por la carencia afectiva; y el impacto familiar, educativo y social cuando se produce el reencuentro. Estos resultados se obtuvieron en un estudio descriptivo/interpretativo, en el que participaron 180 dominicanos que viven en Islas Canarias, en el que se recogieron datos cuantitativos a través de un cuestionario y relatos de vida.
LA FRECUENTE COLISIÓN ENTRE EL DERECHO A LA LIBERTAD RELIGIOSA Y LOS INTERESES EMPRESARIALES EN UNA SOCIEDAD MULTICULTURAL
Authors: Durán-Bernardino Manuela
Published: March 2020

La utilización del velo islámico en el ámbito laboral sigue siendo objeto de debate en Europa. Lo novedoso es que el Tribunal de Justicia de la Unión Europea ha respaldado recientemente la posibilidad de que las empresas prohíban el uso del pañuelo islámico en horario laboral, al estimar, que dicha prohibición «no constituye una discriminación directa por motivos de religión o convicciones». Ante este hecho, el objetivo del presente trabajo es abordar la problemática del uso de símbolos religiosos o políticos en el ámbito laboral, en el marco de una sociedad cada vez más heterogénea y plural. Para lo cual, se realizará, en primer lugar, el estudio de la normativa marco existente a nivel europeo sobre la protección del derecho de toda persona a la igualdad ante la ley y a estar protegida contra la discriminación. En segundo lugar, el análisis de la jurisprudencia del Tribunal de Justicia de la Unión Europea, prestando especial atención a las Sentencias de 14 de marzo de 2017, con las que el Tribunal Europeo avala a las empresas a prohibir el uso visible de cualquier signo político, filosófico o religioso. Por último, se abordará la trascendencia de las bases fijadas por la doctrina científica y jurisprudencial ante el reto de resolver los conflictos internos originados entre el derecho a la libertad religiosa de los trabajadores y los intereses empresariales en el marco de las relaciones laborales.

Published: March 2020

En los últimos años se ha podido apreciar cómo los problemas de convivencia y disciplina en las aulas de los centros de educación han generado una preocupación que afecta a toda la comunidad educativa. La convivencia escolar ha experimentado cambios en los últimos tiempos debido a diversos factores, por lo que debe ser tratada con herramientas adecuadas que permitan mejorarla en los centros educativos, lugares tan diversos debido a la multiculturalidad existente. Se presenta un estudio realizado con el objetivo de conocer la percepción de los docentes y el alumnado con respecto a la convivencia escolar en Centro de Educación Infantil y Primaria, utilizando un enfoque cuantitativo con análisis descriptivo. Entre los resultados podemos mencionar que los docentes son conscientes de que existen problemas de convivencia en los centros; solo una mínima parte del profesorado considera que no existen problemas de convivencia en el aula y que, en contraposición, el tiempo dedicado a temas relacionados con la disciplina y el conflicto no supera la media en la mayoría de los casos. Se desprende que existe formación en mediación escolar ya que la mayoría del alumnado considera que la mejor forma de resolver los conflictos es a través de la mediación. In recent years it has been seen how the problems of coexistence and discipline in the classrooms of education centers have generated a concern that affects the entire educational community. The school coexistence has undergone changes in recent times due to various factors, so it must be treated with adequate tools to improve it in schools, places so diverse due to the existing multiculturalism. In the present article a study is presented with the objective of knowing the perception of teachers and students regarding school coexistence in Early Childhood and Primary Education Center, using a quantitative approach with descriptive analysis. Among the results we can mention that teachers are aware that there are problems of coexistence in schools; only a minimum part of the teachers considers that there are no problems of coexistence in the classroom and that, in contrast, the time devoted to subjects related to discipline and conflict does not exceed the average in most cases. It is clear that there is training in school mediation since the majority of students consider that the best way to resolve conflicts is through mediation.

Published: March 2020

The aim — to analyze first results of a new tension‑free mesh repair method for giant hiatal hernias.Materials and methods. Sіх patients (4 women and 2 men) with giant hiatal hernia underwent laparoscopic repair with new technique. The mean age was 62 years (52 — 70). The mean BMI was 24.8 kg/m2 (16.4 — 30.8). The average area of the hernia was 33.9 cm2 (18 — 60 cm2). Round shaped polyester mesh with collagen coating Symbotex (Covidien) measuring 9 or 12 cm was used. It was cut out of a section in the form of an equilateral triangle with a smaller side cut for the esophagus (creating a heart‑shaped implant).A separate rectangular mesh was cut out. Transverse incisions were made on it, the rectangle was folded along, closing the notch, thus repeating its curvature. The upper edge of the structure was fastened with four knot sutures with Prolene 2 — 0, which was stitched all 3 layers of the grid, creating a «stiffening rib».Results and discussion. There were no conversions. The mean duration of procedure was 3 hours (2.5 — 4). There were no intraoperative complications. The mean duration of hiatoplasty was 35 minutes (25 — 40 min). There were no postoperative complications. There were no symptoms of anatomical and reflux recurrence in a follow‑up period of 1 — 3 months. There were also no complaints of dysphagia. X‑ray image with barium and endoscopy showed no anatomical recurrence or esophageal stenosis.Conclusions. The new method of tension‑free hiatoplasty with lightweight polyester mesh with collagen coating Symbotex (Covidien) showed the basic feasibility and convenience of the esophageal giant hernias. The immediate results of the new method showed no anatomical recurrences and dysphagia. More cases collection with assessment of long‑term results and comparing with other methods are needed.
Tensions in the Preparation of University Supervisors: Dual Perspectives from Supervisors and Administrators
Authors: Capello Sarah
Published: March 2020

Prior research shows that supervisors of teacher candidates are typically underprepared for their work and receive little oversight of it. However, there has been less research into these causes and the effects of minimal preparation on supervisors. This case study of a teacher education department uses survey, interviews, and document analysis to examine the tensions that occur when supervisors are underprepared for their roles. The results indicate three tensions that undermine supervisors’ practice: unclear expectations, perfunctory evaluations, and the failure to develop teacher educator identities. In the absence of organizational supports for supervisor preparation and development, supervisors relied on peer networks and their PK-12 experience to inform their practice. Program administrators lamented the lack of training for supervisors but did not have the time or resources to support it. Intentional preparation could help supervisors navigate these tensions and should aim to align supervisors’ training to the roles they embody.

Easier said than done? Task difficulty’s influence on temporal alignment, semantic similarity, and complexity matching between gestures and speech
Authors: de Jonge-Hoekstra Lisette , Cox Ralf F. A. , van der Steen Steffie , Dixon James A.
Published: March 2020

Gestures and speech are clearly synchronized in many ways. However, previous studies have shown that the semantic similarity between gestures and speech breaks down as people approach transitions in understanding. Explanations for these gesture-speech mismatches which focus on gestures and speech expressing different cognitive strategies, have been criticized for disregarding gestures’ and speech’s integration and synchronization. In the current study, we applied three different perspectives to investigate gesture-speech synchronization in an easy and a difficult task: temporal alignment, semantic similarity, and complexity matching. Participants engaged in a simple cognitive task, and were assigned to either an easy or a difficult condition. We automatically measured pointing gestures, and we coded participant’s speech, to determine the temporal alignment and semantic similarity between gestures and speech. Multifractal Detrended Fluctuation Analysis (MFDFA) was used to determine the extent of complexity matching between gestures and speech. We found that task difficulty indeed influenced gesture-speech synchronization in all three domains. We thereby extended the phenomenon of gesture-speech mismatches to difficult tasks in general. Furthermore, we investigated how temporal alignment, semantic similarity, and complexity matching were related in each condition, and how they predicted participants’ task performance. Our study illustrates how combining multiple perspectives, originating from different research areas (i.e., coordination dynamics, complexity science, cognitive psychology) provides novel understanding about cognitive concepts in general, and about gesture-speech synchronization and task difficulty in specific.

Authors: Mogahed Mona , Mahmoud Mahdi Atif , Hifni Hasn , Juma Hassan , Mogahed Mona , Saleh Allaf Mona
Published: March 2020

Congenital intestinal malrotation is a group of intestinal rotational anomalies occurring during embryogenesis. Reversed rotation is considered the rarest type of malrotation and often presents with symptoms of bowel obstruction. We present a rare case of a 27-year-old woman who presented with acute abdomen. The patient’s preoperative computed tomography (CT) scan and operative findings confirmed reverse malrotation, internal hernia of foramen of Winslow, and midgut volvulus. The transverse colon, duodenum, small bowel, cecum, and appendix were abnormally located, with the presence of Ladd bands. The patient underwent an emergency laparotomy (Ladd procedure) with an uneventful postoperative recovery and an unremarkable follow-up CT scan of the abdomen. A review of the literature for intestinal reverse malrotation is also presented to provide an understanding of the expected clinical picture and imaging findings for this rare anomaly.

Published: March 2020

Visceral leishmaniasis is a rare disease in Western countries. We present the case of a 72-year-old male recipient of a related live donor renal transplant 41 years earlier and a past medical history of visceral leishmaniasis, who presented with progressive malaise, diarrhea, weight loss and darkening of skin, 11 months after the first episode. The main finding on blood work was severe hyponatremia and pancytopenia. He was diagnosed with relapsing visceral leishmaniasis and treated with liposomal amphotericin B (L-AmB), reduction of immunosuppressive therapy and supportive therapy. Throughout treatment he had worsening bradycardia and hyponatremia accompanied with liver failure and acute congestive heart failure. The patient survived the leishmaniasis episode but had sequels of chronic liver disease and chronic heart failure. The authors report the case due to its clinical challenge and due to the fact that data on how to treat immunodeficient patients with relapsing leishmaniasis is scarce.

Determination of Colistin and Tigecycline Resistance Profile of Acinetobacter Baumannii Strains from Different Clinical Samples in a Territory Hospital in Turkey
Authors: Şimşek Merih , Demir Cengiz
Published: March 2020

Objective: Acinetobacter baumannii (A. baumannii) can develop resistance to various antimicrobial agents via different mechanisms. Hence, the aim of this study was to investigate, by using different methods, the resistance profiles of A. baumannii strains isolated from different clinical specimens; from colistin and tigecycline antibiotics, and also the distribution of this resistance according to the clinical samples. Material and Methods: For this study, 1,265 clinical samples (a samples from each patient) were obtained from various clinics, between; January 2015/December 2018. Identification was conducted by VITEK® 2 compact (bioMerieux, USA) and conventional biochemical tests. Antibiotic susceptibility tests were performed by VITEK 2, and the results of colistin and tigecycline were confirmed by E test and the broth microdilution method. Results: A. baumannii strains (1,265) were most frequently isolated from tracheal aspirate, sputum and blood samples. At the same time, strains were obtained from intensive care units (70.4%) as well as other clinics (29.6%). The rates of colistin and tigecycline-resistant strains were determined using VITEK 2, E test and the broth microdilution methods as: 3.0%, 5.7%, 9.0% and 21.7%, 24.5%, 33.0%, respectively. Conclusion: The determination of appropriate antibioticis are important for empirical treatment. Colistin and tigecycline have become prominent as an important, alternative agent in the treatment of A. baumannii-related infections. The results of this study show that colistin and tigecycline resistance rates in intensive care units have been increasing gradually over the years. Monitoring of resistance patterns of nonfermentative bacteria, isolated from intensive care units, is important for the immediate initiation of appropriate empirical treatment. In-vitro studies with A. baumannii strains should also be supported by clinical trials.

Alguns pressupostos: a imagem é um objeto complexo, relacional. Não é o objeto delimitado dentro de uma área de conhecimento circunscrita, apenas. Tampouco é o objeto de uma área de atividade do homem, um mero veículo da sua sociabilidade, uma ferramenta de sua inter-relação com a natureza, com o entorno ou consigo mesmo. Sendo um objeto relacional, presente em todas as esferas da existência humana, ela está presente no ambiente externo como também está presente no ambiente interno.
Narrativas biográficas: os diários como fonte de pesquisa e instrumento narrativo
Authors: Martinez Monica , Albuquerque Aline
Published: March 2020

Com base nos estudos das narrativas biográficas em jornalismo literário, este artigo contempla o estudo sobre uma das modalidades deste tipo de composição da narrativa: os diários. O trabalho pretende analisar como a escrita da memória auxilia o trabalho do biógrafo e muitas vezes serve como fonte de pesquisa, como narrativa não ficcional ao se tornar parte da história. O corpus de três textos (dois artigos e um capítulo de livro) foi coletado a partir de investigação no Periódico Capes e no Google Acadêmico a partir das palavras-chave diários e narrativas. O método empregado foi a análise de conteúdo na perspectiva de Bardin (2011), sendo a categoria escolhida referenciais teóricos empregados sobre diários. Os resultados apontam que não há propriamente um corpus sobre o assunto, uma vez que não há repetição das obras empregadas, sugerindo que no futuro um estudo vertical sobre o tema, numa perspectiva transdisciplinar, talvez possa ser bastante salutar para o campo.Palavras-chave: Comunicação.

OBJECTIVE

The advent of the internet and the popularity of e-learning resources has promoted a shift in medical and surgical education today. The Neurosurgical Atlas has sought to capitalize on this shift by providing easily accessible video and online education to its users on an international scale. The rising popularity of social media has provided new avenues for expanding that global reach, and the Atlas has sought to do just that. In this study, the authors analyzed user demographics and web traffic patterns to quantify the international reach of the Atlas and examined the potential impact of social media platforms on the expansion of that reach.

METHODS

Twitter, Facebook, and Instagram metrics were extracted using each respective service’s analytics tool from the date of their creation through October 2019. Google Analytics was used to extract website traffic data from September 2018 to September 2019 and app data from January 2019 to October 2019. The metrics extracted included the number of platform users/followers, user demographic information, percentage of new versus returning visitors, and a number of platform-specific values.

RESULTS

Since the authors’ previous publication in 2017, annual website viewership has more than doubled to greater than 500,000 viewing sessions in the past year alone; international users accounted for more than 60% of the visits. The Atlas Twitter account, established in August 2012, has more than 12,000 followers, primarily hailing from the United States, the United Kingdom, Canada, and Saudi Arabia. The Atlas Facebook account, established in 2013, has just over 13,000 followers, primarily from India, Egypt, and Mexico. The Atlas Instagram account (established most recently, in December 2018) has more than 16,000 followers and the highest percentage (31%) of younger users (aged 18–24 years). The Atlas app was officially launched in May 2019, largely via promotion on the Atlas social media platforms, and has since recorded more than 60,000 viewing sessions, 80% of which were from users outside the United States.

CONCLUSIONS

The Neurosurgical Atlas has attempted to leverage the many e-learning resources at its disposal to assist in spreading neurosurgical best practice on an international scale in a novel and comprehensive way. By incorporating multiple social media platforms into its repertoire, the Atlas is able to ensure awareness of and access to these resources regardless of the user’s location or platform of preference. In so doing, the Atlas represents a novel way of advancing access to neurosurgical educational resources in the digital age.

OBJECTIVE

Educating future neurosurgeons is of paramount importance, and there are many aspects that must be addressed within the process. One of the essential issues is the disproportion in neurosurgical care, especially in low- and middle-income countries (LMICs). As stated in their report “Global Surgery 2030,” The Lancet Commission on Global Surgery has emphasized that the availability of adequate neurosurgical care does not match the burden of neurosurgical disease. A strong partnership with the local and national government is very desirable to improve the way everyone addresses this issue. In addition, international collaborative effort is absolutely essential for the transfer of knowledge and technology from a developed country to an LMIC. This paper shows what the authors have done in Yogyakarta to build an educational model that helps to improve neurosurgical care distribution in Indonesia and reduce the inequity between provinces.

METHODS

The authors gathered data about the number of neurosurgical procedures that were performed in the sister hospital by using data collected by their residents. Information about the distribution of neurosurgeons in Indonesia was adapted from the Indonesian Society of Neurological Surgeons.

RESULTS

The data show that there remains a huge disparity in terms of distribution of neurosurgeons in Indonesia. To tackle the issue, the authors have been able to develop a model of collaboration that can be applied not only to the educational purpose but also for establishing neurosurgical services throughout Indonesia. Currently they have signed a memorandum of understanding with four sister hospitals, while an agreement with one sister hospital has come to an end. There were more than 400 neurosurgical procedures, ranging from infection to trauma, treated by the authors’ team posted outside of Yogyakarta.

CONCLUSIONS

Indonesia has a high level of inequality in neurological surgery care. This model of collaboration, which focuses on the development of healthcare providers, universities, and related stakeholders, might be essential in reducing such a disparity. By using this model, the authors hope they can be involved in achieving the vision of The Lancet Commission on Global Surgery, which is “universal access to safe, affordable surgical and anesthesia care when needed.”

Published: March 2020

OBJECTIVE

Despite general enthusiasm for international collaboration within the organized neurosurgical community, establishing international partnerships remains challenging. The current study analyzes the initial experience of the InterSurgeon website in partnering surgeons from across the world to increase surgical collaboration.

METHODS

One year after the launch of the InterSurgeon website, data were collected to quantify the number of website visits, average session duration, total numbers of matches, and number of offers and requests added to the website each month. Additionally, a 15-question survey was designed and distributed to all registered members of the website.

RESULTS

There are currently 321 surgeon and institutional members of InterSurgeon representing 69 different countries and all global regions. At the time of the survey there were 277 members, of whom 76 responded to the survey, yielding a response rate of 27.4% (76/277). Twenty-five participants (32.9%) confirmed having either received a match email (12/76, 15.8%) or initiated contact with another user via the website (13/76, 17.1%). As expected, the majority of the collaborations were either between a high-income country (HIC) and a low-income country (LIC) (5/18, 27.8%) or between an HIC and a middle-income country (MIC) (9/18, 50%). Interestingly, there were 2 MIC-to-MIC collaborations (2/18, 11.1%) as well as 1 MIC-to-LIC (1/18, 5.6%) and 1 LIC-to-LIC partnership. At the time of response, 6 (33.3%) of the matches had at least resulted in initial contact via email or telephone. One of the partnerships had involved face-to-face interaction via video conference. A total of 4 respondents had traveled internationally to visit their partner’s institution.

CONCLUSIONS

Within its first year of launch, the InterSurgeon membership has grown significantly. The partnerships that have already been formed involve not only international visits between HICs and low- to middle-income countries (LMICs), but also telecollaboration and inter-LMIC connections that allow for greater exchange of knowledge and expertise. As membership and site features grow to include other surgical and anesthesia specialties, membership growth and utilization is expected to increase rapidly over time according to social network dynamics.
Esquema de control jerárquico para fijación óptima de consignas en un separador trifásico de un tren de tratamiento de crudo

One of the techniques to treat oil from oil wells is to use oil treatment trains to separate the three existing phases: gas, oil and water. One of the equipment that makes up the train is the three-phase separator. This work demonstrates the feasibility of using a hierarchical control scheme for online setting of optimal pressure and temperature setpoints and thus reducing energy consumption in the heat treater. So that the manipulated variables and the set points are within the limits of the safe operation, with this provides an economic and environmental benefit for this plant. The achievement of this optimization is the main contribution of this work. For the development of this work we designed an optimization algorithm based on three hierarchical layers where the first layer refers to direct control (PIDs), the second layer refers to the optimization of steady state objectives (SSTO), the third layer refers to local optimization of objectives (LSSO). For the solution to this problem we resorted to solutions of linear optimization and nonlinear optimization these algorithms are related to the linearized model of the plant, in other works are usually based on the theory MPC (Predictive Control Model). The simulation of the algorithms was done in Matlab and tested in a simulated plant in Hysys using the Active x server connector that connects the two software. In this experiment it was possible to save 30% of the energy consumption. In turn, it was found that it is possible to relate the plant model with the linear and non-linear optimization algorithms, which concluded that the implementation of these algorithms is feasible in this type of plants for process optimization.
Equidad gerencial, como una demanda intangible de mercado: hacia organizaciones sustentables
Authors: Terán Samaniego Karla , Robles Parra Martín , Preciado Rodríguez Juan Martín , López López Diana Cristina
Published: March 2020

This article gives an account of the referential foundations of how the market conditions organizations to compete with intangible attributes of the product, which are related to the basic components of sustainability (social, environmental and economic). Likewise, the referential foundations of how equity management, as intangible market demand, propitiates organizational changes towards sustainability are provided. These conceptual bases do not appear tacitly in literature reviews and constitute an important conceptual structure to address the analysis of organizations. In the literature, research that deals with the issue of equity management, as an intangible market demand that encourages organizational changes to move towards sustainability, is limited, and it is crucial to mention that the process of its integration into management translates into guarantee of quality and business excellence that responds to an intangible market demand, which contributes to the creation of sustainable organizations.
