Published: June 2022

Background and Objectives: The objective of this study was to determine molecular characterization and genetic diversity of colistin-resistant A. baumannii clinical isolates in Intensive Care Unit hospitalized patients.
Materials and Methods: A total of 127 A. baumannii clinical isolates were evaluated for antimicrobial susceptibility. PCR reaction and sequencing were performed for the detection of mutations in pmrAB and lpx ACD genes.
Results: Based on antimicrobial susceptibility testing, 40.94% and  33.85% of the isolates were MDR and XDR respec- tively whereas 3.93% of them were found to be PDR. Results of agar dilution MIC and E-test indicated that 76% of the isolates were sensitive to colistin. All of the isolates were positive for bla OXA-51 and 50% of them were positive for both blaOXA-23-like and bla OXA-143-like genes while only 25% of the isolates were positive for bla OXA-72 . None of them were positive for the bla OXA-58-like gene. There is no mutation in pmrA. The V162A substitution for pmrB gene was repeated in two isolates, and E394D and Y292H substitutions in lpxA were observed in two isolates; also, C120R and F165L substitutions in lpxC gene was repeated in two isolates. Analysis of phylogenetic tree based on alterations in lpxACD and pmrB genes indicated the appearance of new isolates compared to the reference strain ATCC17978 A. baumannii isolates.
Conclusion: The present study indicated the prevalence of MDR and XDR A. baumannii isolates and the emergence of PDR isolates in the northwest portion of Iran. The appearance of colistin-resistant isolates with new mutations in pmrB, lpxACD genes indicates new resistance mechanisms.

Published: June 2022

Background and Objectives: RESİST-4 O.K.N.V. assay is a lateral immunochromatocraphic test for the identification of oxacillinase (OXA)-48-like, Klebsiella pneumoniae carbapenemase (KPC), New Delhi metallo-β-lactamase (NDM), and Verona integron-encoded metallo-β-lactamase (VIM) producing strains. It was aimed to evaluate the performance of the RESIST-4 O.K.N.V. test and to compare it with the reference method polymerase chain reaction (PCR). Also, the objective was to determine the distribution of carbapenemase types of CRE strains isolated in our hospital.
Materials and Methods: Between January 2016-October 2019, 187 strains isolated from clinical samples were included in this study. Bacterial identification was done using MALDI-TOF MS. Antibiotic susceptibility tests were studied with the VITEK-2 automated system. Meropenem minimum inhibitory concentrations (MICs) were determined by the gradi-ent test. All strains were studied with the RESIST-4 O.K.N.V. test and then the strains were selected for the PCR test. bla OXA-48 , bla NDM , bla KPC, and bla VIM were investigated with PCR. K. pneumoniae NCTC® 13438 (KWIKSTIKTM, Micro- biologics®,USA) was used as the positive control, E. coli ATTC® 25922 TM (Microbiologics®,USA) and three carbapen- em-sensitive clinical isolates were also used as the negative control.
Results: Meropenem MIC 50 and MIC 90 values were determined to be >32 mg/L. With PCR bla OXA-48 , bla NDM , bla KPC and bla VIM were detected in 79, 63, 20, and 4 strains, respectively. blaOXA-48 and bla NDM were found together in 51 of the iso- lates. bla OXA-48 , bla NDM , bla KPC, and bla VIM  were not detected in two strains with carbapenem resistance in susceptibility tests. The sensitivity of the immunochromatographic test was 100% for OXA-48, KPC, and VIM but 84.1% for NDM. Specificity was determined as 100% for OXA-48, NDM, KPC, and VIM.
Conclusion: RESIST-4 O.K.N.V. test showed high sensitivity and specificity in detecting OXA-48, KPC, NDM, and VIM. type carbapenemases. However, it should be kept in mind that there may be false-negative results related to NDM.

Authors: Mohsin Asmaa S. , Alsakini Ali H. , Ali Munim R.
Published: June 2022

Background and Objectives: Urinary tract infections are one of the most commonly associated human infectious diseases caused by the bacteria Escherichia coli. Escherichia coli is described as having a large number of virulence genes that enable drug resistance, which is a cause for great concern. Monitoring of antimicrobial susceptibility is critical to determining the scope of the problem and selecting appropriate antimicrobial drugs. The current study aimed to identify the distribution of uropathogenic E. coli (UPEC) based on genetic profiles and to determine resistance patterns among isolates.
Materials and Methods: This study employed biological correlations to study the patterns of antibiotic resistance and the distribution of phylogenetic groups of 118 isolates of E. coli and the relationship between them, which were isolated from three hospitals in Baghdad, Iraq.
Results: The results of phylogenetic analysis showed that phylogroup F was the most common group among E. coli isolates (37.3%), followed by phylogroups C (20.3%), B2 (15.3%), E (14.4%), UP (4.2%), A and D (3.4%), and B1 (1.7%). The majority of antibiotic resistance patterns were related to penicillin groups (80.5%) and the least to the sulfonamide groups (67.0%). 51.7%, 42.4%, and 1.7% of isolates were Extensive Drug Resistance (XDR), Multi-Drug Resistance (MDR), and Pan Drug Resistance (PDR), respectively. Antibiotic resistance was most commonly detected in group F (35.6%).
Conclusion: Our observations revealed that the dominant phylogroup F had the highest prevalence of multi-drug resistance and extensive drug resistance among E. coli isolates. The newly identified phylogroups C, E, and F account for about 72.0% of the E. coli isolates. Such investigations should be conducted in other localities as well, in order to gain a better understand- ing of the pattern of antibiotic resistance patterns and the frequency of distinct phylogenetic groups.
Interleukin-23R Gene Polymophisms in Patients with Diabetic Peripheral Polyneuropathy
Authors: OCAK Özgül , SILAN Fatma
Published: June 2022

Objective: Proinflammatory and neurovascular changes are blamed in the pathogenesis of diabetic neuropathy. Although it is accepted that diabetes is a trigger for vascular inflammation, it has been suggested that inflammation itself may trigger diabetes. Interleukin-23 (IL-23) is a pro-inflammatory cytokine secreted by activated macrophages and dendritic cells. Interleukin-23R is known to have a critical role in chronic inflammatory diseases. The aim of this study is to determine the relationship between IL-23R polymorphism and diabetic peripheral neuropathy.

Method: 50 diabetic peripheral neuropathy patients who applied to Neurology outpatient clinic, and 52 healthy controls compatible with the patient group in terms of age and gender were included. Electromyography was performed on all of the volunteers, who agreed to participate in the study, and 2 ml of blood samples were taken into tubes with EDTA, and the IL-23R gene polymorphism was analyzed using the pyrosequencing method.

Results: IL-23R gene variants rs2201841, rs199542433, rs201052419, rs11209026 were analyzed in diabetic peripheral neuropathy (DPN) patients and control group. While we investigate IL23R polymorphisms we didn’t find any significant differences between patient and control groups. But when we use odds ratios, rs2201841 seems to have a protective role, and rs199542433 in both dominant and recessive models and rs11209026 only recessive model seem to be related 10 fold higher risks for DPN.

Conclusion: IL-23R gene polymorphism has been shown to be associated with many autoimmune and inflammatory diseases. It is known that inflammation has an important effect on diabetes. The frequency of IL-23R gene polymorphism was not significant in diabetic peripheral neuropathy. Our study is the only and first study investigating the role of IL-23R gene polymorphism in diabetic peripheral neuropathy. Ethnicity is very important in genetic studies, and it will give us more clear information for the future to carry out this study in patients with other ethnic origins and to recruit larger study groups.

Published: June 2022

Objective: Pediatric seizure is a condition that occurs due to many different underlying causes and causes fear and anxiety in families. In our study, it was aimed to evaluate pediatric seizure cases who applied to our hospital.

Material and Methods: Patients aged 0-18 years, who applied to the pediatric emergency department of our hospital between May 2018 and May 2020, were retrospectively analyzed. The patients were evaluated in terms of age, gender, seizure types, familial genetic predisposition, examination, treatment and follow-up. Seizures were divided into 2 groups as focal and generalized according to the International League Against Epilepsy (ILAE) 2017 classification. The treatment methods applied with cranial magnetic resonance imaging and electroencephalography recordings of the patients were evaluated.

Results: Of the 118 patients included in the study, 70 (59 %) were girls and 48 (41 %) were boys. The mean age was 60 (3-192) months. Family history was present in 18 (15 %) cases. 8 (7 %) of the seizures are partial and 110 (93 %) of them are generalized. Since seizure recurrence was observed within 24 hours in 5 of 36 patients who were evaluated as febrile seizures, they were evaluated as complicated febrile seizures and drug treatment was started. The other 31 patients were evaluated as simple febrile seizures. There was no biochemical abnormality in the seizure etiology in any of the cases. Cranial magnetic resonance imaging revealed polymicrogyria in 2 patients, hydrocephalus in 2 patients, brain tumor in 1 patient, and arteriovenous malformation in 1 patient.

Conclusions: In cases presenting with seizures, the underlying causes should be identified and their treatment should be arranged. Cases with recurrent seizures should also be followed closely.
Fenomenología y representaciones sociales como método investigativo para la comprensión teológica de la espiritualidad
Authors: Escobar Mejía José Edwar , Quintero Torres Fredy Alonso , Moncada Guzmán Ciro Javier
Published: June 2022

La fenomenología en la investigación teológica se configura como un método investigativo y, a la vez, como una perspectiva epistemológica cuando se vincula la intencionalidad de una indagación por las representaciones sociales que subyacen en un contexto determinado, pues su determinación a partir de interacciones, relatos, comprensiones y prácticas de los sujetos posibilitan la comprensión profunda del problema abordado. Esto es aunado cuando el ejercicio de delimitación se concentra en la pregunta por la espiritualidad humana, ya que es posible comprenderla como un fenómeno humano evidenciable en la cotidianidad del mundo de la vida, así como un lugar de interés para el análisis teológico. De ahí que este artículo haya tenido como objetivo evidenciar las vinculaciones entre la fenomenología y las representaciones sociales como método de investigación en teología para la comprensión profunda de los proyectos de este campo de conocimiento vinculados a la espiritualidad, teniendo así como alcance la presentación de la correlación de estas categorías conceptuales como aporte a los procesos investigativos desde el saber teológico. Los resultados expuestos representan la triangulación teórica de varios proyectos de investigación abordados por los autores en que las categorías centrales expuestas fueron su lugar de indagación, de tal forma que al final se logra una exposición metodológica en prospectiva de apoyo a los investigadores de las áreas vinculadas. Al final, se concluye una posible ruta fundamentada en la concienciación, la apertura al fenómeno, la indagación por los sentidos y la praxis.

Published: June 2022

Da'wah is the most important part of religion. All forms of teaching and faith dissemination to the worship procedures are driven by da'wah activities. As a dynamic activity, da'wah continues to experience changes in methods and strategies that are considered effective and in line with the changing times. In the digitalization, most of religious activities have shifted to virtual spaces which are considered flexible, efficient, and more effective. Cyber religion is present as an answer to the digitalization demands in the religious sector. In addition to all its benefits, cyber religion also has a negative impact by increasing the prevalence of hate speech in the name of religion expressed by the laity to the preachers. So a special formulation is needed to stem the increasing number of religion hate speech in the virtual space. The Prophet Muhammad as a role model for the people of all time has taught and exemplified our tips for humanist da'wah so that not only transmits religious teachings, but also creating unity of the ummah. These efforts can be realized in three ways; Muhammad training center, determines the preache qualifications and ethics, conducts mentoring and evaluation.

Published: June 2022

This study aims to identify the internalization process and social challenges regarding the mandatory use of the veil for the Dayah (Pesantren) Ma'hadal 'Ulum Diniyah Islamiyah (MUDI) students of the Samalanga Grand Mosque, Bireuen Regency, Aceh Province. This study uses a symbolic interactionism theory approach from George Herbert Mead. The results showed that the use of the veil for Dayah MUDI students contained the meaning of the identity symbol of Islamic teachings in totality (kāffah), preventive actions from negative actions, and at the same time Islamic da'wah bi al-ḥāl. The objectification of the meaning of the veil for the students of MUDI developed through a process of social interaction constructed by the rules in the MUDI environment. Meanwhile, female students' obstacles to using the veil outside the MUDI environment, namely the individual mental factors of students, family environmental factors, and negative social stigma factors in society. The limitations of this research can also be the object of further research. It has not yet identified the form or pattern of the environmental response of the santriwati family and the broader social community to the implementation of the mandatory use of the veil for MUDI students.

Published: June 2022

Este estudo trata da associação entre o Direito Social à Educação e o enfrentamento da violência contra a mulher, com base em proposições legislativas do Congresso Nacional que se ocupam desses assuntos. A pesquisa busca evidenciar qual(is) concepção(ões) de educação estão presentes nessas propostas, bem como verificar como é disciplinado tal Direito Social nos referidos documentos. Justifica-se essa escolha pela compreensão de que a violência contra a mulher tem raízes sociais e culturais, assim como pelo fato de que a educação pode ser uma ferramenta útil na reconstrução de signos  subjacentes ao tema e, ainda, pela percepção de que o enfrentamento da violência contra a mulher precisa ser (re)visitado e atualizado, tendo em vista as estatísticas relacionadas à matéria. Acerca da metodologia, a pesquisa compatibiliza com o método de abordagem indutivo e se caracteriza como uma pesquisa bibliográfica e documental, utilizando-se da análise de conteúdo para o exame das proposições legislativas. Como resultados, identificaram-se categorias pertinentes às abordagens de educação e às funções da educação. Destacaram-se, relativamente à primeira categoria, Abordagens de educação, a educação como Direito Social, como instrumento para a qualificação profissional e como via para a mudança cultural. Na segunda categoria, Funções da educação, identificou-se que a educação é invocada, principalmente, no intuito de prevenir a violência contra a mulher, de reabilitar os autores de tal violência e de emancipar as mulheres em situação de violência.
Usos do tempo no século XXI: chaves de leitura para uma reforma (urgente) do tempo de trabalho
Authors: Párraga Francisco José Trillo
Published: June 2022

No século XXI, os usos do tempo continuam subordinados às necessidades da produção capitalista, sob os padrões, aliás, de um modelo de produção completamente esgotado: o modelo fordista. Esse confinamento assumido pela política do direito, o da flexibilização trabalhista entendida de forma unidirecional (apenas em prol da satisfação dos interesses dos empresários), deve ser revertido avaliando o impacto socioeconômico que o modelo neoliberal de relações trabalhistas tem causado em termos de tempo de trabalho. Com isso, a abertura de espaços para o debate político-jurídico que promova de forma crítica e pro-labour a (urgente) reforma do tempo de trabalho, em que sejam abordadas questões transcendentais, como, pelo menos, a relação entre trabalho produtivo e (re)produtivo; a necessidade de reverter a hegemonia econômico-empresarial na regulação do tempo, inclusive do tempo de trabalho; uma utilização mais equilibrada da flexibilidade interna do tempo de trabalho que satisfaça os interesses e necessidades dos trabalhadores; uma nova reformulação dos regulamentos que promovam uma conciliação da vida privada e profissional onde o elemento pessoal é revitalizado e em que a relação entre trabalho e família se expande para acomodar modelos desta última que não os arquetípicos; a adaptação das regulamentações às exigências do trabalho na era digital sem incorrer no determinismo da narração econômica ou do ensimesmamento tecnológico.

Published: June 2022

This contribution aims to recreate the picture of underground educational activity in Szadek and its neighborhood during the period of German occupation in Poland (1939– 1945). The information has been collected through interviews with the inhabitants of Szadek. It presents the persons who played outstanding roles in teaching Polish children and young people despite the severe punishment that it might entail. September 1939 was the beginning of the invaders’ educational policy, designed to eliminate Polish intelligentsia and to destroy Polish education and culture. Very soon Polish schools in Szadek, Przatów, Wilamów and Rzepiszew were closed. The teachers who remained in Szadek, despite being dislodged from their homes, showed great courage and dedication to secret teaching of Polish children. Under the pretext of teaching German they taught Polish, history, geography and mathematics. The persons who rendered the greatest services in this field in Szadek were: Helena Nawrocka, Olga Chominówna, Zofia Rutkowska and postman Kazimierz Sadowski.

The occurrence of more than 90 vascular plant species was noted as a result of research on plants diversity of natural pond (it is about 200 m2 in surface area) with its surroundings, which is located in Wilamów forest complex (the eastern part of Szadek commune). The list of plants includes vulnerable species such as: “Nymphaea alba”, “Drosera rotundifolia”, “Nuphar lutea”, “Ledum palustre” (endangered and protected by the law), “Eriophorum vaginatum” and “E. angustifolium” (locally rare and endangered). This natural site is worthy of preservation and establishment of “Śródleśny staw w Wilamowie” nature protected area is suggested. A stable hydrological regime is the most important for maintenance of biodiversity of this place.
W sprawie nowego herbu gminy i miasta Szadek
Authors: Adamczewski Marek
Published: June 2022

The coat of arms for the town and commune of Szadek was designed and approved in 1990, in accordance with law in force at that time. It was, however, done without consulting heraldists and historians specializing in municipal coats of arms from the period of I Republic of Poland, or persons professionally designing emblems for contemporary municipalities. Consequently, a number of mistakes were made, the most important being that it only partly resembles the town’s heraldic arms from the mid-16th century or the coat of arms from the 17th century, which was incorporated in the altar of Szadek’s parish church to commemorate the citizens who donated funds for its equipment and decoration. According to current quidelines for re-creating coats of arms of urban communes, a municipality should have as its heraldic symbol the historic coat of arms of its capital town or city. Relevant sources indicate that the new emblem of the town and commune of Szadek should contain a city wall with an open gate and three battlemented towers, the exact shape depending on which tradition – 16th or 17th century – is recalled. As regards the heraldic colours, the new coat of arms should have red walls on a golden shield (like that from the 17th century), although a white background is also found for Szadek in publications on heraldic arms of Polish towns and cities.

Published: June 2022

The text presents issues concerning the identity of the elderly in the opinion of the students. Proper identity in old age is possible only through the formation of a realistic picture of opportunities, abilities and skills of older people. A group that plays the most important role in shaping the identity of the seniors is the family. Students survey, for the identity of the elderly is based on the concept of the identity of James Marcia. He singled out four identity statuses: achievement, foreclosure, moratorium and diffusion. Determining the identity of the elderly by the students turned out to be quite a difficult task. The results showed that students determine the identity based on their own grandparents and most often defined it as the identity of the achievement and moratorium. Negative opinions were connected with the general stereotypes of old age.

Esta comunicación da cuenta de las interacciones y de los procesos vinculados a la Investigación Formativa (IF) que surgen a la interna de una Comunidad Profesional de Aprendizaje (CPA), conformada por docentes y estudiantes de profesorado de un Centro Regional de Profesores. Se encuentra enmarcada en un proyecto de investigación donde se planteó el objetivo de desarrollar Estrategias Investigativas (EI) y evaluar su grado de desarrollo en estudiantes de formación docente en el marco del Aprendizaje Ubicuo (AU). Se buscó que los estudiantes desarrollaran competencias investigativas (CI) a través de la construcción de experiencias de investigación que articularan pedagogías, tecnologías y estrategias culturalmente relevantes y coherentes con su formación profesional. Se enmarcó en la investigación-acción con enfoque mixto. Los datos analizados en esta comunicación surgen de la aplicación de instrumentos tales como observaciones de los espacios de encuentro sincrónicos y documentos, así como focus group de docentes y de estudiantes. El análisis fue eminentemente cualitativo. Algunos hallazgos dan cuenta de la interacción genuina que se dio a la interna de la comunidad. En lo que refiere al trabajo en la CPA conformada, el “profesionalismo dialógico” jugó un rol protagónico. Asimismo, se identificó que la reflexión actuó como eje vertebrador de los acuerdos y decisiones. En cuanto a las tensiones, la flexibilidad fue la piedra angular para la búsqueda de soluciones. En relación con los procesos, se constató que la conformación de CPA y el trabajo en IF supone afrontar múltiples dificultades, pero como contrapartida se destaca el despliegue de diferentes estrategias. En este contexto, caracterizado por la ubicuidad, la inclusión de tecnologías digitales fue clave. A modo de conclusión, es posible afirmar que el trabajo en IF llevado adelante por la comunidad conformada en esta investigación logró potenciar procesos de reflexión que favorecieron el desarrollo profesional de sus integrantes.

Past research has suggested that sexual and gender minorities experience elevated levels of systemic inflammation which in turn has been linked to worse mental health outcomes. Therefore, the goals of this work are to develop a better understanding of the relationship between mental health variables and inflammation among this high-risk population. Data were collected among a sample of young men who have sex with men and transgender women (YMSM/TGW,N= 685) aged 16–20 at the time of enrollment. Multiplex plasma cytokine and inflammatory biomarkers were quantified. Mental health variables were self-reported and included perceived stress, depression, and suicidal ideation. Latent profile analyses (i.e., latent class analyses intended for continuous variables) were utilized to identify four unique profiles of individuals with similar inflammatory markers followed by adjusted multinomial logistic regression to estimate the association between inflammatory profiles and mental health variables. Participants experienced moderate levels of perceived stress, normal levels of depression and ten percent reported suicidal ideation in the past 6 months. Multinomial regression models indicated that being in the highest inflammation profile, compared to the lowest inflammation profile, was significantly associated only with increased perceived stress and suicidal ideation. In sum, we observed significant relationships between inflammation and both perceived stress and suicidal ideation, but not between inflammation and depression. Future research should continue to assess these relationships using longitudinal data as they are intricate and likely bidirectional and may be key to reducing health disparities among this population.

In the study of child-to-parent violence (CPV), the perspective of the victimized aggressor has not been analyzed in depth, and the impact of different contexts of victimization even less so. The aim of this study was to examine the unique and additive effects of family victimization (direct and vicarious) and school victimization (bullying and cyberbullying) on predicting CPV toward fathers and mothers. The sample included 3,142 adolescents aged 12–18 years (Mage = 14.32) from schools in southern Spain. The participants completed the Child-to-Parent Violence Questionnaire adolescent version, the Violence Exposure Scale, and the European Bullying/Cyberbullying Intervention Project Questionnaires. The findings showed that independently, both family and school victimization predicted CPV, with direct family victimization being the best predictor, and that jointly, contributed to a significant improvement in prediction, explaining approximately 20% of CPV. Furthermore, a correspondence was found between the type of violence experienced and the type of violence perpetrated. It is necessary to study the profile of the victimized aggressor in CPV in order to design interventions adapted to the specific needs of this profile.
Espacios vividos: trayectos biográfico-profesionales de los maestros rurales en Antioquia
Authors: Castellano Milton , Blandón Alba
Published: June 2022

El artículo aborda los trayectos biográfico-profesionales de los maestros rurales en Antioquia a partir de su interacción con el espacio geográfico. El objetivo es comprender la función del espacio geográfico en la configuración de la profesionalidad pedagógica de los maestros rurales. Para ello, se analizan las narrativas construidas por los maestros a partir de la técnica de relatos de experiencia, inscrita en el enfoque biográfico-narrativo. También se retoman los postulados de Kessler sobre las nociones de paisaje y espacio geográfico como una ruta de lectura para el abordaje de las narrativas. En cuanto a los resultados, se encuentra que las alusiones al espacio geográfico donde están las escuelas cumplen funciones diferenciadas en los trayectos biográficos de los profesores: presentar un inventario de lo que allí acontece y mostrar (a) las condiciones complejas a las que se enfrentan y en las que deben ejercer su labor como docentes, (b) las confrontaciones urgentes de la cotidianidad y (c) las reflexiones de los maestros sobre los territorios recorridos como forma de resignificar sus experiencias.

Antecedentes: Existen pocos estudios que examinen los factores asociados a los distintos niveles ansiedad por la salud en los estudiantes de medicina. Objetivos: Determinar los factores asociados a los niveles de ansiedad por la salud en estudiantes de medicina en el año 2018. Materiales y métodos: Se realizó un estudio transversal analítico con 657 estudiantes de medicina de una universidad privada peruana. Se realizó un censo y los participantes respondieron un cuestionario donde se recopiló la información respecto a los niveles de ansiedad por la salud (SHAI). Para el análisis se empleó la Regresión Lineal para calcular los betas, crudos y ajustados, e intervalos de confianza al 95%. Resultados: El promedio del puntaje de ansiedad por la salud fue de 14 puntos (SD 6,7). Se reporta una asociación entre la ansiedad por la salud y el año de estudio, siendo el segundo año el que revela puntajes más altos. Además, pone en manifiesto la asociación entre la ansiedad por la salud y el uso de tabaco, reportando niveles más altos en los fumadores ocasionales; así como una correlación inversa débil con la edad. No se revela asociación con el sexo, el lugar de nacimiento, el tener un familiar de primer grado médico o el tener un familiar de primer grado personal de salud. Conclusiones: El presente estudio evidenció que la edad, el año de estudios y el uso de tabaco se encontraban asociados a los niveles de ansiedad por la salud. Se requieren más estudios, especialmente de naturaleza longitudinal.

El objetivo de este estudio fue encontrar los factores de riesgo para la baja adherencia a la suplementación con multimicronutrientes (MMN) en niños de 6 a 35 meses de edad. Se analizó una base de datos secundaria de la vigilancia centinela realizada durante los años 2009-2011 en las regiones de Apurímac, Ayacucho y Huancavelica por el Centro Nacional de Epidemiologia, Prevención y Control de Enfermedades del Perú (CDC). Se incluyeron los datos demográficos además de otras variables que se recogieron mes a mes durante la vigilancia. Estas son si recibió consejería nutricional, si asistió a la sesión demostrativa de preparación de alimentos con MMN, si percibió alguna mejoría en el niño, si el niño presentó algún evento adverso relacionado al consumo de MMN, si recibió visitas domiciliarias, y el alimento en el que se agregó los MMN. Para el análisis estadístico se usó la regresión de ecuaciones de estimación generalizadas (GEE). Los resultados que se encontraron son que asistir a la sesión demostrativa (p=0.005), que el niño presente eventos adversos relacionados a la ingesta de MMN durante los seis primeros meses de suplementación (p<0.001) y agregar los MMN en alimentos líquidos (p=0.001) disminuyen la adherencia a la suplementación en 1.27%, 17.00% y 1.51% respectivamente. Residir en Huancavelica (p<0.001) y que la madre note a su niño más despierto (p=0.039) incrementan la adherencia en 2.51% y 0.95% respectivamente. Concluimos que se deben realizar intervenciones que aborden estos factores de riesgo, y recomendamos que se realicen más estudios en esta área.

En los últimos años, alrededor del mundo, se han implementado estrategias formativas a directivos, debido a que estos son el segundo factor de impacto en el logro escolar según estudios realizados por Bush & Glover (2003); Leithwood & Levin (2010) y Riley & Mulford (2011). En el caso peruano, se ha visibilizado la importancia de su cargo a partir de la ley de la reforma magisterial, la cual ha desplegado esfuerzos para la formación de líderes. En este marco, la presente investigación tiene como objetivo describir, analizar y explicar el conjunto de percepciones de seis directivos de Apurímac y Huancavelica acerca del liderazgo pedagógico y la formación virtual recibida para la inducción al cargo directivo ofrecido por el Ministerio de Educación en el año 2017. Se recopiló percepciones referidas al liderazgo pedagógico, la implementación de acciones posteriores a la inducción al cargo y la modalidad en la que se desarrolló el curso. El enfoque de la investigación fue cualitativo, se realizó una entrevista semi estructurada a 6 directores. Los resultados destacados son los siguientes. En primer lugar, se percibe, en el discurso de los directores, declaraciones que evidencian la apropiación de conceptos de liderazgo pedagógico. En segundo lugar, los entrevistados, reconocen haber establecido a partir del curso cambios dentro del espacio escolar. Entre estos, el monitoreo, acompañamiento pedagógico y fortalecimiento de relaciones de horizontalidad con sus docentes y la comunidad educativa. Finalmente, entre las percepciones acerca de haber llevado el curso de manera virtual, se destaca que esa modalidad permite el aprendizaje desde cualquier ubicación geográfica, aunque también genera sensaciones de soledad y necesidad de acompañamiento.

En la actualidad las redes sociales se han convertido en una ventana de exposición para el público en general, pero sobre todo para las marcas, ya que sabiendo utilizar las herramientas que estas plataformas brindan se puede llegar al segmento que se quieren enfocar y poder crear estrategias como por ejemplo la omnicanalidad. De acuerdo con lo dicho, las clínicas veterinarias al ser un rubro muy sensible, ya que las mascotas son consideradas parte fundamental de la familia podrían aprovechar el impacto que generan estas plataformas para poder atraer a su público objetivo. A pesar de ello, a diferencia de otros rubros, se ha identificado que este sector del mercado no logra explotar por completo los beneficios de estas plataformas; motivo por el cual la presente investigación consiste en cómo la carencia de redes sociales influye en este rubro, donde podremos identificar tanto como el compromiso consumidor-marca, lealtad e intención de compra de los hombres y mujeres que residen en el distrito de San Miguel. Partiendo de la opinión de expertos en el manejo de redes sociales de marcas, con el fin de recaudar información acerca de la importancia e influencia de cada factor como las principales plataformas que son Facebook e Instagram. Posterior a ello, se aplicó 400 encuestas al público objetivo de las veterinarias para analizar el comportamiento y la percepción que tienen en cuanto a este tema.
