Published: September 2020

Осуществлена ревизия видового состава герпетофауны Дальневосточного морского биосферного заповедника. Уточнены локалитеты монгольской жабы Strauchbufo raddei. Приведены аргументы в пользу того, что на о-ве Стенина обитает дальневосточная жаба Bufo gargarizans, а не S. raddei, как считалось ранее. Для подтверждения нахождения последнего вида в окрестностях регионального памятника природы Голубиный утес рекомендовано выполнить дополнительные исследования. Из видового списка заповедника исключена амурская долгохвостка Takydromus amurensis. Приведена новая информация по распространению на юге Приморского края отдельных видов герпетофауны: чернопятнистой лягушки Pelophylax nigromaculatus на о-веФуругельма и большого морского крайта Pseudolaticauda semifasciata в прибрежных водах у пос. Преображение Лазовского района. Составлен обновленный список амфибий и рептилий заповедника с указанием современных таксономических наименований, соответствующих ведущим международным базам данных. Впервые на островах и Дальнем Востоке России кариотипирована B. gargarizans, отловленная на о-ве Стенина. При исследовании хромосомного набора для (2n 22) в ее костном мозге обнаружена высокая инфицированность трипаносомами.

The species composition of the herpetofauna of the Far Eastern Marine Biosphere Reserve was revised. The clarification of locality of the Mongolian tode (Strauchbufo raddei) was made. It was argued that the Asiatic tode (Bufo gargarizans) but not S. raddei inhabits the Stenina Island, as previously thought. To confirm the location of the last species in the area of the regional protected natural sanctuary Golubiny Utes, it is recommended to conduct additional research in this area. The Amur grass lizard (Takydromus amurensis) has been excluded from the species list. New information about expansion of certain species of herpetofauna in the South of Primorsky Krai, including the dark-spotted frog (Pelophylax nigromaculatus) in the Furugelm Island and the black-banded sea krait (Pseudolaticauda semifasciata) in the coastal waters of the Preobrazheniye urban-type settlement in Lazovsky District was reported. The updated list of amphibians and reptiles of the Reserve with modern taxonomic names that correspond to leading international databases has been compiled. For the first time, B. gargarizans caught on Stenina Island was karyotyped on the Islands and in the Russian Far East. While studying the chromosomal sets (2n 22) of this species, it was found that bone marrow was highly infected with Trypanosoma.
Water origin and its role in the Earth’s evolution
Authors: КУЗЬМИН Ю.Д. , САХНО В.Г.
Published: September 2020

По одной из гипотез, вода на Земле имеет метеорное (поверхностное), а не ювенильное (земное) происхождение. Она не может образовываться в конденсированных средах, т.е. в недрах планеты, как считали и считают многие геологи и геофизики. Данный вывод требует других подходов, отличных от устоявшихся взглядов на происхождение воды, эволюцию гидросферы, атмосферы и содержания воды в горных породах на разных геофизических уровнях Земли и других планетах Солнечной системы. Согласно нашей гипотезе, вода на Земле образовалась в результате синтеза водорода и кислорода из космического газопылевого вещества на горячей поверхности твердой планеты с последующим формированием атмосферы, гидросферы Земли и их активным участием в эволюции Земли, во всех геофизических и геохимических процессах.

There is one hypothesis that the Earths water is of meteoric rather than endogenous origin. It cannot emerge in condensed environments, namely in the planets interior, as it was believed by many geologists and geophysics. This inference requires other approaches differing from the fixed views on the water origin, evolvement of hydrosphere and atmosphere, water content of rocks in various geophysical layers of the Earth and on other planets of the Solar System. According to our hypothesis, water is a result of synthesis of hydrogen and oxygen from interstellar medium on a hot surface of terrestrial planet followed by the birth of atmosphere and hydrosphere which played a great part in the evolution and all geophysical and geochemical processes of the Earth.

Supporting Conversion Section of Hydrogen Production Unit by Membrane Modules to Produce Extra-Pure Hydrogen and Improving Equilibrium Conversion
Authors: Sarkarzadeh M. , Farsi Mohammad
Published: September 2020

The main object of this research is the modification of an industrial hydrogen production unit with palladium-based membrane modules to produce extra-pure hydrogen and shift reactions toward the hydrogen production side. The considered hydrogen production unit includes steam reformer, high and low temperature shift converters, carbon dioxide absorption tower, and methanator. The membrane modules are applied in the catalytic reactors and hydrogen is simultaneously penetrated from the reaction zone toward the sweep gas. In the first step, both conventional and membrane-supported processes are heterogeneously models based on the mass and energy balance equations at steady state condition. Then, the simulation results of conventional process are compared with the plant data to prove the validity of the developed model. Finally, the simulation results of conventional and membrane-supported processes are compared under the same operating condition. In general, applying the membrane module on the system increases hydrogen production rate from 63.95 to 67.21 mole s-1. Based on the simulation results, supporting the conventional with the membrane module increases hydrogen production rate by 5.1%.

Authors: Saeed Az. , Hameem Z.U. , Modi D. , Park R. , Saeed An.
Published: September 2020

Paraneoplastic syndromes associated with anal squamous cell carcinoma (scc) are rare. Erythema gyratum repens (egr) is a cutaneous paraneoplastic syndrome with distinctive characteristics. Here, we report the rare case of a 73-year-old woman with a chronic erythematous rash for 11 months associated with intense pruritus. She was treated with prednisone and antihistamines by dermatologists, but did not respond. The patient was subsequently seen in our clinic for unintentional weight loss and anorexia with intermittent nausea and vomiting. During further evaluation with imaging studies, upper endoscopy, and colonoscopy with biopsy, poorly differentiated anal scc was identified. Biopsies of the skin rash were characteristic of egr. She was treated using concurrent chemotherapy with 5-fluorouracil and mitomycin C and pelvic radiation (50.4 Gy in 28 fractions) for anal scc. She tolerated the treatment, and her rash faded, with resolution of the pruritus.

Published: September 2020

En los tiempos actuales se ha relevado la importancia del uso de las tecnologías para los distintos sectores de la sociedad, entre ellos, el educativo. Al respecto, existen las plataformas de enseñanza online, entre ellas se encuentra Blackboard Collaborate. En esta plataforma los estudiantes que asisten a clases online sincrónicas los estudiantes pueden comunicarse con el profesor por distintos canales, por ejemplo, los comentarios en chats en tiempo real. Utilizando la teoría de las emociones de Plutchik (2011), con una metodología híbrida y con el uso machine learning, a través de la técnica del aprendizaje no supervisado que implementa el diccionario syuzhet, se indagó el tipo de emociones que 90 estudiantes manifestaban en sus comentarios al hacer uso de la plataforma Blackboard Collaborate durante varias sesiones que abordaban el tema de espacios vectoriales. Los resultados indican que la confianza es la emoción más predominante, por lo que se debe considerar como admiración, por otro lado, las emociones de sorpresa aversión fueron los menos presentes, por lo que se deben considerar como tedio y distracción. Las emociones se mostraron en general homogéneas, salvo cuando se trató el contenido de diagonalización.

Published: September 2020

Decision Support System (SPK) is generally defined as a system that is able to provide both the ability to solve problems and the ability to communicate to semi-structured problems. Salary is an important factor in the company in order to provide salaries to employees who have worked in the company, salary increases are in order to improve employee performance better and see the performance of employees who work well. The method used in this study is the SAW and AHP method, where the basic concept of the SAW method is to find the weighted sum of the performance ratings on each alternative for all attributes while the basic concept of the AHP method is to describe a complex multi-factor or multi-criteria problem into a hierarchy. In designing the system, the authors do the design using Visual Basic 2008 and SQL Server 2008 databases. The benefits obtained from the design of the system are able to facilitate the company in determining which employees deserve an employee salary increase

Published: September 2020

The study examined the sugar types and sum sugars in selected brands of commercial fruit juice. The sugar types were determined base on the reducing properties of the monosaccharide sugars using Lane and Eynon method. Non-reducing sugar was estimated after it hydrolysis. The data obtained were subjected to statistical analysis using ANOVA and Hierarchical Clustering (Dendrogram). The results showed that there is no significant difference in the sugar content amongst the seven brands of fruit juice analyzed. However, the results indicated that there is significant difference in the sugar types (Dextrose, Fructose and Sucrose) found in the samples. Fructose was found to be the higher concentrated of the two reducing sugars determined (Dextrose and Fructose) across the samples analyzed. Sample B has the highest fructose and dextrose concentrations (5.22± 0.02 g/100 mL) and (4.92± 0.01 g/100 mL) respectively while G has the lowest concentrations of the two sugars (4.76± 0.01 g/100 mL) and (4.49± 0.01 g/100 mL). Maximum sucrose content was recorded in G (9.36± 0.02 g/100 mL) out of 18.61 g/100mL total sugar reported for the sample. Lowest sucrose was observed in sample E (6.96± 0.03 g/100mL) out of 16.33 g/100 mL total sugar. There is significant amount of sucrose in all the fruit juice sample analyzed
High-resolution Observations of Small-scale Flux Emergence by GST
Authors: Wang Jiasheng , Liu Chang , Cao Wenda , Wang Haimin
Published: September 2020

Recent observations demonstrated that emerging flux regions, which constitute the early stage of solar active regions, consist of emergence of numerous small-scale magnetic elements. They in turn interact, merge, and form mature sunspots. However, observations of fine magnetic structures on photosphere with subarcsecond resolution are very rare due to limitations of observing facilities. In this work, taking advantage of the high resolution of the 1.6 m Goode Solar Telescope, we jointly analyze vector magnetic fields, continuum images, and Hα observations of NOAA AR 12665 on 2017 July 13, with the goal of understanding the signatures of small-scale flux emergence, as well as their atmospheric responses as they emerge through multiple heights in the photosphere and chromosphere. Under such a high resolution of 0.″1–0.″2, our results confirm two kinds of small-scale flux emergence: magnetic flux sheet emergence associated with the newly forming granules, and the traditional magnetic flux loop emergence. With direct imaging in the broadband TiO, we observe that both types of flux emergence are associated with darkening of granular boundaries, while only flux sheets elongate granules along the direction of emerging magnetic fields and expand laterally. With a life span of 10 ∼ 15 minutes, the total emerged vertical flux is on the order of  1018 Mx for both types of emergence. The magnitudes of the vertical and horizontal fields are comparable in the flux sheets, while the former is stronger in flux loops. Hα observations reveal transient brightenings in the wings in the events of magnetic loop emergence, which are most probably the signatures of Ellerman bombs.
Optical Spectrum of the Adamantane Radical Cation
Authors: Crandall Parker Brian , Müller David , Leroux Juliette , Förstel Marko , Dopfer Otto
Published: September 2020

Known for their stable structural and thermal properties, diamondoids and particularly their radical cations are viable candidates as carriers for diffuse interstellar bands. While previous research has mainly focused on neutral diamondoids and their derivatives, little is known about their radical cations, which may form in interstellar environments by ionizing radiation. We report the first experimental optical spectrum of the simplest diamondoid cation, the adamantane radical cation (

), obtained via electronic photodissociation spectroscopy of cryogenic ions in the 310–1000 nm range. The main fragmentation channels are H loss at low energies and C3H7 loss at higher energies. The optical spectrum reveals a broad band spanning the range of 420–850 nm, assigned to the D

Published: September 2020

Slow magnetoacoustic waves in a static background provide a seismological tool to probe the solar atmosphere in the analytic frame. By analyzing the spatiotemporal variation of the electron number density of plume structure in coronal holes above the limb for a given temperature, we find that the density perturbations accelerate with supersonic speeds in the distance range from 1.02 to 1.23 solar radii. We interpret them as slow magnetoacoustic waves propagating at about the sound speed with accelerating subsonic flows. The average sonic height of the subsonic flows is calculated to be 1.27 solar radii. The mass flux of the subsonic flows is estimated to be 44.1% relative to the global solar wind. Hence, the subsonic flow is likely to be the nascent solar wind. In other words, the evolution of the nascent solar wind in plumes at the low corona is quantified for the first time from imaging observations. Based on the interpretation, propagating density perturbations present in plumes could be used as a seismological probe of the gradually accelerating solar wind.

Published: September 2020

In Central America,Vampyressais represented by two species,Vampyressa elisabethaeandV. thyone. The latter is the only representative of the genus in Honduras and the most recent record was in 2007. Six surveys were carried out in the Departments of Cortés, Atlántida and Gracias a Dios. Only seven individuals ofV. thyonewere recorded between March 2016 and September 2017. The low abundance ofV. thyonesupports the fact that it is an uncommon species in the country; however, these records update the distribution in northern Honduras. We recommend systematic bat assessments on the three protected areas in which we recordedV. thyonefor a better comprehension of the local populations on this species in the country.
A new species of Nicippe from the Bering Sea (Crustacea, Amphipoda, Pardaliscidae), with a redescription of N. tumida
Authors: Tomikawa Ko , Kakui Keiichi , Fujiwara Yoshihiro
Published: September 2020

A new pardaliscid amphipod, Nicippe beringensis, is described from the Bering Sea at depths between 520 and 536 m, and N. tumida Bruzelius, 1859 is redescribed based on specimens from Fredrikshald, Norway, near the species’ type locality. Nucleotide sequences of mitochondrial cytochrome c oxidase subunit I (COI) from the holotype and a paratype of N. beringensissp. nov. are reported. While N. beringensissp. nov. is similar to N. tumida, it differs from the latter in having an asetose palp article 1 of maxilla 1, a gnathopod 1 coxa with a straight distal edge, and in the posterior margin of the basis of gnathopods 1 and 2, and pereopod 3, being heavily setose in females. A key to species of Nicippe is provided.
A new species in the Tetramorium solidum-group (Hymenoptera, Formicidae, Myrmicinae) from the Richtersveld National Park, South Africa, with an assessment of threats and conservation status
Authors: Hawkes Peter G.
Published: September 2020

Eight specimens of an undescribed species of Tetramorium in the T. solidum-group were collected by pitfall trapping during an environmental impact assessment survey of the Oena Diamond Mine in the Richtersveld National Park, South Africa. The new species is most closely related to T. grandinode Santschi, 1913 but can be distinguished from this species by the distinctly different patterns of costulate sculpture on the mesosomal dorsum and petiole node, as well as the different forms of the petiole and postpetiole nodes, both of which in the new species are relatively narrower and longer and with no (petiole) or reduced (postpetiole) lateral extensions. Tetramorium namasp. nov. is described here and a modification to the key presented by Mbanyana et al. (2018) to accommodate the additional species is provided. The potential threats to the species posed by alluvial diamond mining, livestock farming and climate change are discussed. A preliminary assessment of the conservation status of Tetramorium namasp. nov is presented and suggests that, dependant on determination of the range of the species, it is likely to be classified as Vulnerable (VU) or Endangered (EN) under IUCN Red List criterion B1ab(iii).
The Role of Mental Health in the Aftermath of Terrorism
Authors: VanDercar Ashley H. , Whaley Grace L. , Hawks Erin M. , Ostermeyer Britta K.
Published: September 2020

Terrorism is a form of psychological warfare. A successful terrorist attack results in mass violence and can produce a man-made disaster. After any disaster, mental health professionals can play important but varied roles. In the immediate aftermath, the mental health professional's role is shaped by a need for flexibility and pragmatism. As time passes and things begin to return to normal, the role moves toward more typical mental health services—a treatment role, shaped by the preceding trauma. Mental health professionals can also provide treatment to accused or convicted terrorists in correctional settings. Alternatively, mental health professionals can serve in an evaluator role. The evaluator role is forensic and involves the evaluation of an accused or convicted terrorist (eg, for competency to stand trial, criminal responsibility, or sentence mitigation) or victim (eg, for psychological damages).

Wide-Awake Surgery With Local Anesthesia and Epinephrine Is Safe
Authors: Ilyas Asif M. , Jennings John D. , Banner Lauren , Matzon Jonas L.
Published: September 2020

Hand and upper extremity surgery performed with the patient wide awake involves the use of a local anesthetic and epinephrine. Controversy persists as to whether epinephrine is safe for use in the hand. The goal of this study was to evaluate the safety of epinephrine in hand and upper extremity surgery. The hypothesis was that epinephrine is safe and can be used for a wide breadth of surgical procedures of the hand and upper extremity. A 4-year retrospective chart review was conducted of consecutive patients undergoing wide-awake surgery performed by 2 surgeons at a single institution. All procedures were performed with local anesthesia and epinephrine. Data collected included patient demographics, procedure volume, procedure type, surgical setting, and complications related to epinephrine use. During the study period, 4054 consecutive patients underwent 4287 wide-awake procedures with local anesthesia and epinephrine. Average patient age was 59 years, and 64% of patients were female. No complications occurred as a result of the use of epinephrine, and no tissue necrosis, phentolamine reversal, anaphylaxis, or readmissions occurred. No patients required conversion to general anesthesia or monitored anesthesia care. This analysis of more than 4000 consecutive patients undergoing wide-awake hand and upper extremity surgery with epinephrine confirmed that epinephrine use is safe, with no reported cases of tissue necrosis, reversal, readmission, anaphylaxis, or anesthetic conversion. Epinephrine is safe for use in the hand and upper extremity for patients undergoing wide-awake hand surgery with a local anesthetic. [

En mars 2015, le shaykh ‘Abbās Šūmān (n. 1961), procurateur d’al-Azhar, annonçait une réforme des programmes d’enseignement religieux au sein de l’institution. Cette initiative illustrait, parmi d’autres indices, le phénomène de crise dans la pensée sunnite contemporaine. Certains aspects de cette crise ont été étudiés dans le cadre de la conférence de l’année 2017‑2018. Pour mieux en saisir les ressorts, la conférence de l’année 2018‑2019 a été centrée sur une série de portraits de ‘ulamā’ d’al‑Azhar, de la fin du xixe à la fin du xxe siècle. Cette étude monographique a été enrichie par les interventions du Professeur Mohamed Sghir Janjar, invité à l’EPHE au second semestre.

Fétiches : les choses‑dieux et leurs humains en Afrique (et ailleurs)
Authors: Kedzierska Manzon Agnieszka
Published: September 2020

Si le regard porté sur le fétichisme a évolué depuis que le premier traité portant sur le culte des dieux-fétiches fut écrit, le culte lui‑même semble toujours aussi répandu au sud du Sahara. Pour examiner la construction de l’identité paradoxale des « choses divines » qui en sont l’objet, nous avons privilégié la perspective comparatiste et mobilisé plusieurs approches théoriques. Visant une meilleure compréhension des conceptualisations du divin en Afrique, nous avons examiné la manière dont de telles choses affectent « leurs » humains, en fonctionnant dans leur expérience comme des « personnes qui ne sont pas des personnes ». Le parcours s’est achevé par un retour critique sur les catégories de personne/sujet et de chose/objet dans leurs acceptions africaines.
Syncrétisme, purification et mission en Amérique latine
Authors: Calavia Sáez Oscar
Published: September 2020

Le séminaire a été consacré à l’examen du terme syncrétisme, de sa dévalorisation et de l’intérêt théorique qu’il retient malgré tout. Le « syncrétisme » semble encourir les mêmes erreurs que le concept de « métissage » : il naturalise les processus religieux, les dérobant à leur enjeu politique. Le terme reste pourtant résilient, même dans le vocabulaire de ses critiques. Le panorama récent de l’Amérique latine a été marqué par des essais de purification des traditions religieuses subalternes et par des tendances syncrétisantes identifiées loin des niches habituelles. Le syncrétisme est compris, dans ce séminaire, non comme un espace interstitiel du champ religieux, mais comme une approche heuristique qui privilégie l’orientation vers l’extérieur de toute pratique ou institution religieuse.
Subset selection of markers for the genome-enabled prediction of genetic values using radial basis function neural networks
Authors: Sant'Anna Isabela de Castro , Silva Gabi Nunes , Nascimento Moysés , Cruz Cosme Damião
Published: September 2020

This paper aimed to evaluate the effectiveness of subset selection of markers for genome-enabled prediction of genetic values using radial basis function neural networks (RBFNN). To this end, an F1 population derived from the hybridization of divergent parents with 500 individuals genotyped with 1000 SNP-type markers was simulated. Phenotypic traits were determined by adopting three different gene action models – additive, additive-dominant, and epistatic, representing two dominance situations: partial and complete with quantitative traits having a heritability (h2) of 30 and 60%; traits were controlled by 50 loci, considering two alleles per locus. Twelve different scenarios were represented in the simulation. The stepwise regression was used before the prediction methods. The reliability and the root mean square error were used for estimation using a fivefold cross-validation scheme. Overall, dimensionality reduction improved the reliability values for all scenarios, specifically with h2 =30 the reliability value from 0.03 to 0.59 using RBFNN and from 0.10 to 0.57 with RR-BLUP in the scenario with additive effects. In the additive dominant scenario, the reliability values changed from 0.12 to 0.59 using RBFNN and from 0.12 to 0.58 with RR-BLUP, and in the epistasis scenarios, the reliability values changed from 0.07 to 0.50 using RBFNN and from 0.06 to 0.47 with RR-BLUP. The results showed that the use of stepwise regression before the use of these techniques led to an improvement in the accuracy of prediction of the genetic value and, mainly, to a large reduction of the root mean square error in addition to facilitating processing and analysis time due to a reduction in dimensionality.

Technical and scientific aspects of dams in Brazil: a theoretical approach
Authors: Pacheco Admilson Da Penha , Henriques Renato Filipe Faria , Ribeiro Paulo Marcelo Vieira
Published: September 2020

The safety of a dam is the result of a series of factors, including structural, geotechnical, hydraulic, operational and environmental aspects. In Brazil, Law No. 12.334 of September 2010 establishes the National Dam Safety Policy, which requires safety reports and monitoring inspections for existing dams. The inspection comprises a set of devices installed on the dam, which are used to assess the structural behavior based on performance parameters of the structure, such as displacements, flows, stresses, slopes and others. Dam auscultation procedures, historically, have been performed since the 1950s. Since then, there have been significant advances in instrumentation and dam auscultation methods. This work presents a theoretical approach on technical and scientific aspects of dams in Brazil, based on a state-of-the-art literature review, involving auscultation of dams in the context of design codes, concepts, instrumentation, safety, procedures and monitoring methods.

Authors: Diéguez Corría Olemma Elvira , Labrada Estrada Luis Enrique , Rodríguez Aguilar Yusleidys
Published: September 2020

Las escuelas especiales en Cuba en las que se educan e instruyen a escolares con TAC transitan por un trascendental perfeccionamiento, con el fin de asegurar una educación de calidad. Para lograr dicho fin, es de insoslayable valor lograr que estos escolares autocontrolen sus modos de actuación en todos los contextos en los que se encuentren. Este es un tema polémico, pues a pesar de la existencia de diversas alternativas encaminadas a lograr que estos escolares lleguen a autocontrolarse, la práctica está demostrando que aún no se satisfacen las demandas de la sociedad. De este particular deviene el objetivo de esta investigación que consiste en diseñar una estrategia educativa para el desarrollo del autocontrol en escolares con TAC.

Authors: Peinado Camacho José de Jesús
Published: September 2020

El objetivo fue encontrar factores vinculados en la selección de aspirantes de maestría y doctorado. La pregunta de investigación fue: ¿Cuáles son los factores que inciden en la selección de aspirantes de maestría y doctorado? El diseño de la investigación fue no experimental, de corte cuantitativo y con enfoque descriptivo. Como técnica de investigación se utilizó el estudio de caso. Los resultados evidenciaron tres motivos para no ser aceptado: dictamen no favorable, no haber concluido el proceso de admisión, y no aprobar el examen de idioma. Se concluyó que la capacidad potencial, la capacidad real, la proporción de profesor-alumno y el procedimiento de admisión permiten considerar alternativas que favorecen un mayor y mejor ingreso de solicitantes.

Authors: Martínez Ruque Henry , Sarango Jaramillo Cristhian , Unda Costa Mónica
Published: September 2020

El presente artículo tiene como objetivo analizar la situación actual de movilidad humana en Ecuador, concebido como un concepto global y complejo. Se postula que es necesario reconsiderar la viabilidad de una voluntad política y jurídica universal a favor del “estatus” del migrante con fundamentación en los paradigmas del derecho internacional. Para ello, se ha considerado el ingreso masivo de ciudadanos extranjeros con mayor afluencia en el país desde el año 2015. Las innumerables dificultades por parte del gobierno ecuatoriano para afrontar eficazmente el fenómeno de la inmigración, podría vulnerar en muchos casos, la dignidad humana. Se ha utilizado los datos proporcionados por la Oficina de Aduanas de los Estados Unidos y de la Organización Internacional de Migración, OIM.

Published: September 2020

La violación constituye un delito y es una experiencia extremadamente dañina para el que la sufre. Es considerado un evento traumático que provoca tanto trastornos físicos como psicológicos. Este artículo tiene como finalidad reflexionar acerca de las políticas legales que se emplean en el tratamiento a las víctimas de este tipo de delito. Las víctimas de violación son personas que se convierten en individuos esencialmente temerosos, con necesidades y motivaciones peculiares, por lo que requieren de una atención especializada e individual. El artículo aborda un aspecto pocas veces tratado, el referente al punto de vista psíquico y la correspondencia que este tiene con la protección que requiere la víctima.

Authors: González Salas Raúl , Vidal del Río Mildre Mercedes , Pimienta Concepción Iván
Published: September 2020

Se realiza una revisión de las fuentes bibliográficas donde se destaca el papel de los animales silvestres y otras especies como fuente de transmisión del coronavirus COVID-19, pandemia que se ha convertido en una emergencia a nivel mundial. En teoría es posible que el virus SARS-CoV-2 conserve la capacidad de infectar a muchos mamíferos, incluidos pangolines, perros, gatos y hámster chino. En la evolución de la epidemia por SARS-CoV-2 resalta el murciélago como principal reservorio, en tanto se mantienen en estudio varias especies de animales silvestres. No hay indicios de que los animales de compañía, especialmente perros y gatos sean una fuente de infección para humanos.

Authors: Cuesta Guerra Ricardo Enrique , Vaca Altamirano Gabriela Liseth , Pacheco Consuegra Yaima , Vaca Zambrano Segundo Enrique
Published: September 2020

La terapia antibiótica es usada como complementaria a laterapia mecánica en la enfermedad periodontal; sin embargo, su uso puede provocar efectos secundarios considerables, así como también no alcanzar la dosis necesaria para tratar la infección. En odontología, uno de los antibióticos usados en terapia periodontal es la minociclina, la cual presenta efectos adversos que limitan su uso, por lo que el desarrollo de sistemas de liberación controlada ha permitido su utilización. Durante esta revisión bibliográfica fueron analizados los resultadosdel uso de la minociclina a través de los dispositivos de liberación prolongada en el control de los microorganismos de la bolsa periodontal concluyendo que las microesferas de minociclina logran una mayor biodisponibilidad del medicamento usando bajas concentraciones de fármaco lo que reduce sus efectos adversos.

Authors: Bravo Yánez Vanessa Guadalupe , Latorre Barragán María Fernanda
Published: September 2020

Toxoplasma gondii es un parásito apicomplejo extremadamente exitoso, que es capaz de invadir virtualmente cualquier célula nucleada. T. gondii tiene una seroprevalencia global estimada del 30% en la población humana. Dentro de un huésped inmunocompetente, este parásito no causa ningún daño a los sistemas internos; in embargo, en los casos de transmisión congénita durante el embarazo o de reactivación de la infección en pacientes inmunodeprimidos, la infección por T. gondii representa una amenaza potencialmente grave. Aquí, mostramos una revisión de la literatura dirigida a estudiar el estado de T. gondii y la toxoplasmosis en el Ecuador.
