Authors: Palhano Dandara Barbosa , Moura de Andrade Josemberg , Marcos de Moraes Ronei
Published: December 2023

A personalidade é um construto central na pesquisa psicológica, podendo ser definida como uma estrutura relativamente estável do ser humano que influencia seus comportamentos diante de acontecimentos diários. Este estudo objetivou desenvolver e obter evidências de validade baseadas na estrutura interna do Inventário de Avaliação dos Cinco Grandes Fatores e Facetas de Personalidade (IACGF-F). A Teoria dos Cinco Grandes Fatores de Personalidade foi utilizada como referencial teórico para elaboração dos itens. Para o estudo piloto, 150 sujeitos responderam à versão do instrumento composta por 151 itens e questionário sociodemográfico. O estudo final contou com 285 sujeitos com média de idade de 22,6 anos que responderam à versão do IACGF-F com 129 itens, além do questionário sociodemográfico. Foi realizado um conjunto de sete análises fatoriais exploratórias, estimação da fidedignidade, bem como calibração dos parâmetros dos itens a partir da TRI. A versão final do instrumento ficou composta por 103 itens distribuídos em cinco fatores com variação de cinco a seis facetas por fator. Foram encontrados bons índices de fidedignidade (alfas entre 0,85 e 0,96), além de bons índices de dificuldade e discriminação. Sugere-se a utilização do IACGF-F em pesquisas nas quais a avaliação mais detalhada das facetas se faz necessária.

Published: December 2023

A Resiliência é um processo psicológico que envolve a adaptação positiva diante das adversidades, proporcionando aos indivíduos oportunidades de crescimento e aprendizado. O presente estudo buscou compreender as possíveis relações entre a história de vida de executivos e os comportamentos resilientes demonstrados no ambiente de trabalho. Este estudo é uma pesquisa qualitativa que contou com a participação de executivos de quatro organizações do setor têxtil sediadas no estado de Santa Catarina, Brasil. A coleta de dados foi realizada a partir do método biográfico e de entrevistas semiestruturadas. A análise de conteúdo revelou que a resiliência é um processo aprendido ao longo da vida, o qual auxiliou os participantes a enfrentar e superar as adversidades presentes nos contextos de trabalho em tempos difíceis. Os resultados demonstraram que a resiliência dos executivos teve impacto no alcance dos resultados organizacionais, no desenvolvimento de novas habilidades e na manutenção de sua saúde, bem-estar e qualidade de vida. A resiliência é uma capacidade que pode auxiliar no enfrentamento e superação das adversidades no ambiente de trabalho, especialmente em momentos desafiadores.

Authors: Damasceno Roniel Sousa , Pereira Neto Amadeu Antônio , Negreiros Fauston , Freire Sandra Elisa de Assis
Published: December 2023

A prática da psicologia na escola pública sustentou-se, historicamente, tanto através de concepções teóricas individualistas e medicalizantes sobre as demandas escolares, quanto pelo avanço teórico-metodológico advindo das contribuições que o movimento de crítica ensejou na práxis psicológica. No presente estudo, objetivou-se realizar uma revisão sistemática acerca da atuação das psicólogas nas escolas públicas brasileiras, entre 2011 e 2021, considerando o percurso da subárea de psicologia escolar/educacional na reconstrução de sua práxis em uma perspectiva crítica. Das 338 produções recuperadas nas bases PePsic, SciELO, BVS, Scopus e LILACS, incluíram-se 16 artigos que contemplaram os critérios de elegibilidade. Os resultados apontaram a presença das psicólogas escolares nos diferentes níveis de ensino, realizando práticas voltadas para alunos, família, professores e gestão escolar, bem como articulando diálogos multiprofissionais e intersetoriais. A discussão assinalou a ação política de práticas que se sustentam pelo coletivo e que se mantêm alinhadas às múltiplas vozes inseridas no cotidiano escolar. As contribuições dos achados são demonstradas pela síntese de diferentes práticas e intervenções com vistas à orientação das psicólogas presentes nas escolas das diversas regiões pelo país.

Authors: Pereira Humberto Dos Reis , Justi Francis Ricardo dos Reis
Published: December 2023

O viés atencional, compreendido como a tendência de processar informações de acordo com a valência emocional ou significado, pode contribuir para a vulnerabilidade a transtornos psiquiátricos. Este estudo apresenta uma revisão da literatura sobre pesquisas empíricas que investigaram associações entre viés atencional e esquizofrenia. A busca foi realizada nas bases de dados PsycInfo, Web of Science, MedLine e Scopus. Um total de 641 estudos foi identificado. Após a aplicação dos critérios de elegibilidade, 16 artigos foram incluídos na amostra final, com a inclusão de um artigo a partir das referências dos estudos da amostra. Foram observados a utilização de tarefas e estímulos diversos, que apresentaram resultados variados, indicando, por um lado, a presença de viés atencional, e, por outro, interferência equivalente de estímulos emocionais em pacientes e pessoas saudáveis. São necessários mais estudos que, além de investigarem a associação entre viés atencional e esquizofrenia, permitam o controle de variáveis confundidoras.
Gênero e violência sexual contra crianças e adolescentes: um debate sobre relações de poder
Authors: Marchi Geizi Da Silva Sales de , Alves Paola Biasoli , Ribeiro Rosangela Kátia Sanches Mazzorana
Published: December 2023

Este artigo traz um debate teórico a partir da interlocução entre produção de gênero e violência sexual contra crianças e adolescentes. Amparado por uma perspectiva histórica e teórica acerca dos estudos de gênero, assume-se que o processo de socialização e construção das identidades dos sujeitos é marcada por práticas e discursos que incidem continuamente sobre os corpos desde sua gestação. Modelos hegemônicos de masculinidades e feminilidades atravessam as vivências dos sujeitos produzindo marcas, relações de poder, possibilidades e proibições. Assim, compreende-se o gênero enquanto categoria de análise produtora de relações de poder assimétricas que, entre outros fatores, contribuem para a reprodução da violência sexual contra crianças e adolescentes. Esta trata-se de um fenômeno complexo, considerado problema de saúde pública, que se articula com questões micro e macrossociais. Nesta perspectiva, elementos como machismo, patriarcado e adultocentrismo, aliado às desigualdades étnico-raciais, socioeconômicas e de gênero mostram-se enquanto alguns dos fatores que atravessam a violência sexual infantojuvenil, tais elementos são debatidos ao longo do artigo. A prevenção e enfrentamento à violência sexual traduz-se tanto pela ruptura de práticas silenciadoras, maginalizantes e de desigualdades de poder entre os sujeitos, quanto pela efetivação de políticas públicas e criação de estratégias questionadoras das normativas de gênero.

Essas instituições desempenharam um papel crucial na promoção de uma abordagem econômica baseada na cooperação e solidariedade, com o objetivo de alcançar a inclusão social por meio de políticas públicas. Também se fez importante elucidar as ações governamentais para o fortalecimento desse modelo econômico no Brasil, bem como trazer a visão e operacionalização do Serviço Social acerca da Economia Solidária.
HISTÓRIA DA EDUCAÇÃO NO BRASIL: notas acerca da invisibilidade das experiências dos docentes e discentes negros nos espaços escolares.
Authors: Silva Daniel Antonio Coelho
Published: December 2023

O campo educacional trilhou caminhos semelhantes ao da Historiografia tradicional e as Ciências Sociais, ao reduzirem a condição do negro como sinônimo de escravizado e, portanto, praticamente reduzido à violência e ao arbítrio dos senhores, de maneira quase absoluta fez com que imperasse um olhar genérico e fatalista sobre a experiência negra. Em relação ao campo das Ciências Sociais e Humanas, mais recentemente, o volume e a qualidade dos estudos passaram a incorporar as estratégias de resistência, de acomodação e de negociação dos negros, adotadas ao longo de suas experiências históricas e, assim, foram de fato incorporadas às análises científicas ou acadêmicas. Tal fenômeno também ocorreu no campo da Historiografia educacional, isto é, até bem recentemente os estudos relativos aos processos educacionais desconsideravam os afrodescendentes como sujeitos relacionados ao processo, mas novos pesquisadores e pesquisas indicaram realidades históricas que ajudaram a desconstruir uns tantos equívocos praticados com relação ao assunto, como aponta o professor Marcos Vinicius Fonseca. O objetivo deste artigo é realizar uma reflexão de caráter bibliográfico de parte da produção recente sobre e a temática dos negros na educação e as críticas realizadas por ela em relação às análises anteriores.

Objective: This study was conducted to determine the effects of early mobilization on pain and quality of recovery in patients undergoing laparoscopic cholecystectomy.

Materials and methods: Pretest-posttest experimental design with control group. This study was carried out at the General Surgery Inpatient Clinic of a state hospital between April 2021 and January 2022. A total of 90 patients were included in the study. Starting with two hours after surgery, the patients in the experimental group were mobilized at least 6 times in 24 hours. A “Patient Description Form”, the “Visual Analog Scale for Pain”, and the “Quality of Recovery-40 Questionnaire” were used to collect data.

Results: The introductory and medical characteristics of the patients in the intervention and control groups were similar. There was no significant difference between the pain and recovery quality mean scores of the patients in the two groups at the 2nd postoperative hour. The mean pain scores of the patients in the intervention group at the 24th hour and on the 15th day after surgery were found to be significantly lower than the scores of those in the control group. It was found that the mean recovery quality scores of the patients in the intervention group at the 24th hour and on the 15th day after surgery were also higher than those of the patients in the control group.

Conclusions: It was determined that early mobilization reduced the level of pain and increased the quality of recovery in laparoscopic cholecystectomy patients.

Exploring contracts and contracting within supervisor training
Authors: Soni Anita , Callicott Katie
Published: December 2023

This article explores how to foster contracting as a process in supervision. It evaluates the teaching of contracting within a four-day supervision course at the University of Birmingham delivered over the last six years to 63 qualified Educational Psychologists. Two methods were used: a survey generating 20 responses and a focus group comprised of five participants, who elaborated on the results of the survey. The survey indicated a growth in confidence and knowledge about contracting. Helpful activities highlighted included modelling the use of a contract within the training, sharing examples of contracts and transcultural supervision activities. However, there was hesitation about the use of formal contracts to support the working relationship between supervisor and supervisee, indicating a need to support understanding of contracting as a process which enables and supports the supervisory alliance. As a result, the discussion introduces a model bringing three elements of contracting together, namely the formal contract, transcultural supervision activities and mini-contracting within sessions, as a process, with the outcome of promoting a strong supervisory alliance. The limitations to the research include the course being evaluated by those facilitating it and the limited number of respondents. The conclusions highlight the importance of being clearer about the elements of the contracting process and the need for an explicit link from the process of contracting to the quality of the supervisory relationship.

The term “drug repurposing” refers to the practice of identifying unmet medical needs and developing innovative solutions using already available drugs. It’s a useful strategy for identifying or developing new medicinal molecules with untapped therapeutic potential. Some of the computational drugs repurposing methods currently in use have been employed in the fight against the 2019 coronavirus illness (COVID-19) pandemic. Many currently used medications are being repurposed, thanks to advances in computational approaches and a fundamental understanding of viral etiology and pharmacological pharmacodynamics. The objective of this work is to highlight the utilization of repurposed medicines for COVID-19, bacterial infections and cancer therapy. The drug repurposing method is fast-growing in both business and academia, since it focuses on the initial knowledge and investment that brought the product to market in the first place. Recently, medication repositioning has been included in the drug R&D plans of several pharmaceutical companies, aiming to create new therapies in response to the identification of novel biological targets. In addition to being highly efficient, the drug repurposing method also saves money and the pharmacological profiles are generally known.

Türk Savunma Sanayinin İhracat Rekabet Gücünün Belirlenmesi
Authors: Ateş Erdem
Published: December 2023

İç ve dış güvenliğin sağlanması, egemen bir devletin en temel işlevidir. Savunma sanayi sektörü, bir ülkede güvenlik hizmetinin sağlanması için gerekli olan her türlü araç ve gereç üretimiyle uğraşan sanayi kolu olarak tanımlanabilir. Osmanlı Devleti’nin son dönemlerinde başlamakla birlikte, özellikle Cumhuriyetin ilk yıllarında Türkiye, yerli ve milli savunma sanayini kurma yönünde adımlar atmıştır. Türkiye’nin 1952’de NATO üyesi olması ile birlikte, gerekli donanımlar büyük oranda dış kaynaklardan sağlanmaya başlanmıştır. İlerleyen dönemlerde Johnson Mektubu olayı ve 1974 yılında gerçekleştirilen Kıbrıs Barış Harekâtı sonrasında NATO müttefiki olan ABD’nin Türkiye’ye askeri malzeme ambargosu koyması olayları yaşanmıştır. Bu olaylar Türkiye’nin yerli ve milli savunma sanayine sahip olması gerekliliğini ortaya çıkartmıştır.
Çalışmanın amacı; Türk savunma sanayi ihracatının rekabet gücünü analiz etmektir. Analizde, 2000-2020 yılları arasında SITC Rev3 5digit(hane) verileri kullanılmıştır. Analizde; savunma sanayi ile bağlantılı 15 adet ürün ve ürün grupları kullanılmıştır. Bu ürün ve ürün grupları ile Açıklanmış Karşılaştırmalı Üstünlük Endeksleri (Balassa Endeksleri), Açıklanmış Rekabet Üstünlüğü Endeksleri(Vollrath Endeksleri) ve İhracatta Uzmanlaşma Endeksi (ES) hesaplanmıştır.
Sonuç olarak; Türkiye’nin savunma sanayinde dışa bağımlılığının azaldığı ve ihracat yoluyla dünya savunma sanayi ürün pazarından daha yüksek pay almaya başladığı belirlenmiştir. Ayrıca 89114, 89122, 89123, 89131, 89139, 89193 nolu ürün gruplarında Türkiye’nin ihracat rekabet gücünün bulunduğu tespit edilmiştir.
Interpretation of Factors That Influence Turkish-American Bilateral Affairs and Elaboration of These Elements Between 2009-2016
Authors: Direkli Mehmet , Yıldırım Ege Volkan
Published: December 2023

The goal of this article is to better grasp and interpret the elements for a specific term that influence Turkish-American bilateral affairs, which throughout the previous few years have experienced a roller coaster. Turkish foreign policy formerly followed a Western-based course in accordance with the state's goal of westernization. Turkish foreign policy, on the other hand, has changed gradually as it turned out to be evident that the protracted EU admission efforts would not come to a conclusion. Therefore, current foreign policy of Türkiye, which is less Western centric and intimately tied with the geography of the former Ottoman Empire, has had an impact on bilateral affairs with the United States.
Common interests are the most essential element influencing bilateral ties between Türkiye and the United States. The article investigates how bilateral connections are sustained when two countries have mutual concerns, as well as the implications of this if the two states have opposing concerns. As a result of the research conducted for this study, the international organizations of which the two states are a part have been ineffective in changing the interest-oriented framework of the bilateral relationship.

Conceptual blending theory has been used by scholars to study various genres of texts. Scholars studying cartoons in particular have used it to study how metaphors and metaphorical blending are used in cartoons to construct meaningful texts. This paper studies selected Indian political cartoons using the Conceptual Blending Theory of Fauconnier and Turner. The themes of the cartoons chosen for the study focused on various social issuesthat were part of the media discourse in contemporary times. The study was conducted to understand how cartoons depicting social issues used metaphoric blending to visualise an issue. The paper found that the graphic form of the political cartoon mediates the understanding of a communicative event through the use of cognitive devices like metaphoric blends. It was found that novel metaphoric blends were created in a cartoon text depending on the nature of the issue and that these metaphorical blends are regulated by context and background knowledge regarding the event being represented. It was also observed that the novelty of metaphoric blends in Indian editorial cartoons depended on the social, political and cultural context. Meanwhile, the metaphoric blends also draw into it everyday objects and scenarios that structure the meaning potential of the political cartoon. Another relevant finding is regarding how certain cartoon texts had more than one conceptual blend, forming a network of blends that worked in conjunction with each other. Furthermore, it was observed how conceptual blends in cartoons aided in anchoring the meaning of the cartoon and prevented polysemic confusion. The findings of the research prove that cognitive devices are prevalent in cartoon texts and could significantly direct their interpretation and use.

Incidencia de la Maternidad Subrogada en el Interés Superior del Niño
Authors: Rodríguez Pappa Roberto Eduardo
Published: December 2023

En la actualidad, existen problemas que algunos países no han logrado resolver o incluir en la legislación; dentro de esta esfera se encuentra el Bioderecho, el cual es un conjunto de normas jurídicas que tienden a la protección de la persona frente a procedimientos médicos que resultan ser importantes en el cuerpo y salud. La Maternidad Subrogada es un tema que resulta importante para analizar toda vez que la misma puede perfeccionarse a través del acuerdo entre personas adultas, empero, el contrato no posee estipulaciones sobre el interés superior del niño, lo cual representa un problema desde la perspectiva de los Derechos Humanos de la Niñez, porque es imposible saber las condiciones de la vida futura del bebé y la forma en la cual se desarrollará la gestación otro problema es que en Guatemala, no existen leyes relacionadas al Bioderecho ni contratos que puedan ser válidos para la práctica de este tipo de figuras o acuerdos de voluntad. Por lo anterior, se sabe que la incidencia que la maternidad subrogada produce es negativa y no es una práctica que se considere oportuna e idónea para la humanidad.

The Internet of Medical Things (IoMT) revolutionizes healthcare, enhances patient care, and optimizes workflows. However, the integration of IoMT introduces concerns related to privacy and security. In addressing these issues and aiming to bolster privacy and data security, this study presents a novel cybersecurity framework based on blockchain (BC) technology. The primary goal is to ensure secure communication among IoMT devices, preventing unauthorized access and tampering with sensitive data. The proposed framework is implemented in a model designed for classifying electrocardiogram (ECG) signals, utilizing two datasets: a Medical Technology Database (MTDB) with a limited sample size and the Massachusetts Institute of Technology–Beth Israel Hospital (MITBIH) dataset with a more extensive sample size. The datasets are subsequently partitioned into training and testing data. Feature extraction and selection are performed using the Pan-Tomkins and genetic algorithms. To enhance security, BC technology is employed to encrypt the test data. Finally, signal classification is performed using the support vector machine (SVM) classifier. Thus, the model trained on the MITBIH dataset outperforms its small data counterpart, achieving an impressive accuracy rate of 99.9%. Additionally, the model exhibits a true positive rate (TPR) and true negative rate (TNR) of 100%, an F-score of 100%, and a positive predictive value (PPV) of 100%.

Diagnosing Parkinson's Disease (PD) can be quite challenging as it presents with symptoms and lacks biomarkers. Nevertheless, the use of data fusion, which combines types of data using machine learning techniques holds promise, for the timely detection of the disease. In this study, we explore the application of data fusion by employing Principal Component Analysis (PCA) as a step to reduce complexity. We then utilize the K Nearest Neighbors (KNN) classification to improve the accuracy of PD diagnosis. By analyzing nonlinear features associated with PD from a dataset PCA helps us extract attributes while maintaining important variations in the data. Subsequently, KNN is employed to identify patterns in this reduced feature space and effectively distinguish between individuals with PD and those who are healthy. Our results show improvements when using the KNN classifier compared to state-of-the-art approaches. This demonstrates its effectiveness in detecting PD leading to promising outcomes and providing a framework for precise PD diagnosis.

Operations research methods are among the modern scientific methods that have occupied a prominent place among the mathematical methods used in planning and managing various economic and military activities. They have been able to help specialists in developing ideal plans in terms of costs, production, storage, or investment of human energies. One of its most important methods is the method Linear programming, which was built based on the sets of linear equations that represent the constraints for any linear model. Based on the methods for solving the systems of linear equations, researchers were able to prepare algorithms for solving linear models, such as the direct Simplex algorithm and its modifications. After the emergence of neutrosophic science, we found that research methods had to be reformulated. Operations using the concepts of this science, and as a basis and foundation for neutrosophic linear programming. In this research, we will reformulate the systems of linear equations and some methods for solving them using the concepts of neutrosophic to be a basis for any study presented in the field of neutrosophic linear programming.
Acción profesional en Psicología Educacional desde la Declaración Universal de Principios Éticos para Psicólogas y Psicólogos
Authors: Juliá Jorquera Zita María Teresa
Published: December 2023

En el marco de la amplia inserción profesional de psicólogos/as en el contexto educativo en Chile, se propone revisar la acción profesional en el contexto educativo nacional a la luz de la Declaración Universal de Principios Éticos para Psicólogas y Psicólogos (IAAP y IUPsyS, 2008). Esta Declaración responde a la globalización de las sociedades y busca aplicarse en forma transcultural, ofreciendo un marco de referencia flexible para la actividad institucionalizada de psicólogos educacionales que no está suficientemente cubierta por los códigos éticos de la profesión que velan por las responsabilidades individuales. Se revisan los principios éticos de la Declaración contrastándolos con la acción de profesional en cuanto al respeto a la dignidad de las personas y los pueblos, al actuar en forma competente en el cuidado del bienestar del otro, a la integridad personal y profesional en el contexto educativo y al asumir una responsabilidad social y científica con la sociedad. Se discute en torno al compromiso ético-político de la acción-praxis de Arendt y se reflexiona sobre los desafíos éticos de las formas de profesionalización en Psicología Educacional, esbozando la concepción de prácticas basada en valores como una perspectiva de la acción profesional en el complejo contexto político de la educación.

Las hermanas religiosas en Chile contribuyen de modo importante en diversas esferas de nuestra sociedad, desde lo educativo, comunitario, hasta el cuidado de la vida. Dichas labores se enmarcan al interior de su rol religioso y hacen parte de la identidad que construyen en su calidad de hermanas religiosas. La presente investigación busca analizar los contenidos y la percepción identitaria de hermanas religiosas que desarrollan ocupaciones propias del ámbito laboral. Para estos efectos, se realizaron entrevistas a hermanas religiosas pertenecientes a distintas congregaciones en Santiago de Chile; del análisis de contenidos de ellas se desprende que si bien hay diferencias significativas en la forma de organizarse y operar entre las distintas congregaciones, y que realizan distintas labores, estas diferencias no aparecen como relevantes en la conformación identitaria de las hermanas religiosas, las que comparten aspectos identitarios sustantivos, construyendo una relación imbricada entre vida religiosa, personal y ocupacional, a partir de su identidad de hermanas religiosas.
El envejecimiento: ¿Podemos frenarlo? Telómeros/Telomerasa, Senescencia Celular Primera Parte

Todos los seres vivos sufren un declinio fisiológico sistémico después de la ontogenia, caracterizado como “envejecimiento”. El proceso del envejecimiento es multifactorial, probablemente ocasionado por una miríada de factores, que interactúan y con consecuencias a todos los niveles del organismo. En las últimas dos décadas, la medicina moderna ha incrementado la esperanza de vida más de dos veces en el mundo desarrollado, creando una sociedad envejecida con una mayor predisposición a enfermedades degenerativas, con la mitad de las personas de más de 65 años padeciendo dos o más enfermedades crónicas y tomando una cantidad similar de medicamentos para tratarlas. Muchos son los procesos que conducen al envejecimiento y tan variados como la exposición al estrés celular, la inflamación crónica, la autofagia y la supervivencia y muerte celular. La aproximación clásica de focalizar una sola vía o un hecho individual puede fallar en visualizar la complejidad y la interconectividad del envejecimiento. Por lo tanto, aliviar las consecuencias inmediatas del envejecimiento: el deterioro fisiológico, es el objetivo principal de los estudios en este campo. En esta revisión, en sus dos partes (I y II), se pretende dar una visión sobre los factores principales que influyen en el envejecimiento y las posibles terapias que las últimas investigaciones nos proponen, muchas están aún en fase experimental, pero en los que los progresos tecnológicos y científicos lucen esperanzadores.

La pigmentación de la lámina ungueal ha sido descrita con el término melanoniquia que, en la mayoría de los casos, se manifiesta como un conjunto de bandas longitudinales hiperpigmentadas con carácter de variabilidad morfológica; una variabilidad hasta ahora poco analizada. En el presente trabajo se caracterizó la melanoniquia de lesión asintomática pigmentada subungueal en hallux izquierdo, de 10 años de evolución. Se hizo uso de la dermatoscopia ungueal y de la biopsia excisional pre e intraoperatoria. Los datos fueron analizados por densitometría de las bandas longitudinales y la morfometría de la histopatología ungueal, acompañado de su respectivo tratamiento estadístico. Los resultados muestran un patrón longitudinal atípico de 9 bandas pigmentadas, con un gradiente de valores medios de densidad colorimétrica, en unidades de pixeles/mm2, equivalentes a 136 ± 5,6 de grises oscuros, 157 ± 4,5 de negros y 130 ± 5,6 de grises claros. El borde libre presentó pigmentación únicamente de las capas inferiores. El tejido ungueal presentó una aglutinación asimétrica de la melanina cuyo índice de circularidad estimado fue de 72,50 ± 11.97 %. Se concluye que con el uso de la dermatoscopia ungueal y de la biopsia excisional, acompañadas de técnicas de análisis de imágenes digitales por morfometría, se podrían generar parámetros tales como, el índice de densidad colorimetría de las bandas longitudinales, así como el índice de aglutinación de la melanina ungueal que, pudieran a su vez ser interpretados como índices predictivos en la evolución de un posible proceso tumoral en una melanoniquia de alto grado de sospecha de malignidad.
