Authors: Shorayasari Susi , Wati Andini Kurnia , Nurrika Dieta
Published: December 2022

Background: The WHO-MGRS (Multicenter Growth Reference Study) recommendations based on the height for age index define stunting as a condition in which the body is short or extremely short. The incidence of stunting among children under five is predicted to reach 21.9% in 2020 by the World Health Organization (WHO). Stunting affects 149.0 million children, who run the risk of developing stunted growth, poor brain development, lower IQ, and disease vulnerability.
Objectives: The study aimed to find out the variables associated with the incidence of stunting in 2021 in Kepyar Village, Purwantoro District, Wonogiri Regency.
Methods: The research design was case-control with a ratio of 1:1 consisting of 22 samples from cases and 22 samples from controls. 22 individuals who were not deemed to be at risk of suffering stunting made up the control sample for toddlers. Between November 2021 and January 2022, the study was carried out. Low birth weight (LBW), birth length, exclusive breastfeeding, mother's last educational level, mother's height, socioeconomic status, accessibility to weaning food, early breastfeeding initiation, and also considered the mother's age at conception were all independent variables.  The dependent variable is stunting, which can be either chronic or mild to severe (-2 SD). Fisher's Exact Test was used to analyze this study.
Results: The majority of children were not LBW (90.9%), followed by normal birth length (81.8%), exclusive breastfeeding (56.8%), low education level of the mother (72.7%), mother's height was not at risk (72.7%), early breastfeeding initiation (63.6%), low socioeconomic status (63.6%), proper weaning food (77.3%), and maternal age during pregnancy is not at risk (54.5%). Early initiation of breastfeeding and stunting incidents showed a statistically significant association (p-value of 0.005), then there was also a relationship between socioeconomic status and stunting incidents (p-value of 0.028).
Conclusions: Socioeconomic status and early initiation of breastfeeding are associated with stunting incidents. To lower the frequency of stunting in Kepyar Village, early initiation of breastfeeding promotion needs to be optimized.

The Effectiveness of WFH (Work From Home) during the Covid-19 Pandemic to Support the Provision of Exclusive Breastfeeding Practices with Direct Breastfeeding (DBF) for Working Moms
Authors: Stefani Megah
Published: December 2022

Background: The work pattern that occurs during the pandemic is working from home (Work from Home). Before the pandemic, breastfeeding mothers who worked normatively had the right to leave for three months. This regulation often becomes an obstacle for breastfeeding mothers who work to practice exclusive breastfeeding for 6 months using Direct Breast-Feeding (DBF).
Objectives: This study aims to analyze the effectiveness of WFH on the implementation of exclusive breastfeeding with DBF in working mothers.
Methods: The research design is a retrospective case control. The subject category was divided into two treatments: full WFH mothers and partial WFH mothers. The subject treatment groups were divided based on the method of breastfeeding: direct breastfeeding (DBF) and mixed feeding (MF). The subjects of this study were 27 working mothers, 20 mothers as cases, and 7 mothers as controls which were determined purposively.
Results: The difference test between the DBF breastfeeding method during the exclusive breastfeeding period and the WFH treatment showed a significant difference (p=0.000) between the partial WFH treatment and the choice of the exclusive breastfeeding method for DBF in infants. On the other hand, there was no significant difference (p=0.083) between the full WFH treatment and the choice of exclusive breastfeeding method for DBF in infants. The difference test between the WFH partial treatment and the DBF breastfeeding method during the exclusive breastfeeding period showed a significant difference (p=0.030). The difference test between the full WFH treatment and the DBF breastfeeding method during the exclusive breastfeeding period showed a significant difference (p=0.005). The mixed feeding method also showed that there were differences (p=0.000) in working mothers who were fully WFH.
Conclusions: Full WFH affects the success of exclusive breastfeeding with the DBF method. Full WFH during the Covid-19 pandemic in breastfeeding mothers proved effective for implementing the practice of exclusive breastfeeding using the DBF method.

Authors: Mauludyani Anna Vipta Resti , Khomsan Ali
Published: December 2022

Background: Maternal nutritional knowledge must be strengthened to lower the problem of stunting. However, there is currently a lack of information regarding the nutritional knowledge of mothers of stunted and non-stunted children in West Java's rural and urban areas.
Objectives: This study compares the nutritional knowledge of mothers of under-five children in West Java across four groups: those who are stunted in rural areas (SR), those who are stunted in urban areas (SU), and those who are not in rural (NR) and urban (NU).
Methods: This cross-sectional study was conducted in Cianjur (rural) and Sukabumi City (urban) in June 2022. Data was collected through interview to 300 mothers of children underfive using pretested questionnaire. Nutritional knowledge comprised of 20 questions about infant and young child feeding and balanced nutrition. One-way ANOVA and Tukey HSD Post Hoc Tests were applied for data analyses using IBM SPSS 22.0.
Results: Overall, both prevalence of stunting in rural and urban was 33.3% and 30.7%, respectively. Mothers in four groups had moderate nutritional knowledge, with total scores ranging from 70.9 to 75.2. Mothers of NU were found to have more nutritional awareness than NR and SR. In comparison to NR, mothers of NU babies are more likely to be aware that their 2- or 3-month-old infants cannot consume bananas or papayas. Compared to SR, more NU mothers are aware that vegetables do not contain protein. There are more mothers of NU know that sweetened condensed milk is not more nutrient rich compared to powder or liquid milk than NR and SR.
Conclusions: Urban mothers have superior nutritional knowledge than rural mothers. Even, knowledge of rural mother with stunted child is the poorest. With the high prevalence of stunting, access to nutritional information should be enhanced, with a focus on the feeding practices of young children.

Objetivou-se compreender a percepção dos trabalhadores que atuam em Centros de Atenção Psicossociais sobre as repercussões da COVID-19 em seu trabalho. Ainda, descreveram-se as vivências de prazer e sofrimento experienciadas na pandemia, as estratégias mediadoras utilizadas e as repercussões em sua saúde mental. Realizou-se uma pesquisa qualitativa, transversal e exploratória com quatro profissionais atuantes na saúde mental: duas enfermeiras, uma técnica de enfermagem e um educador físico. Como resultados, evidenciou-se impacto significativo no trabalho pela COVID-19, provocando alteração nas práticas profissionais, sobrecarga de trabalho e aumento dos riscos à saúde física e mental desses trabalhadores. As vivências de prazer remeteram ao desenvolvimento técnico da equipe e as de sofrimento à defasagem profissional e de serviços de apoio aos atendidos e à alta rotatividade de trabalhadores. As estratégias de mediação identificadas foram defensivas (apoio medicamentoso, terapias alternativas, atividades físicas, suporte familiar e social) e de enfrentamento (aperfeiçoamento profissional e espaços coletivos de qualificação técnica). Entre os impactos na saúde mental, destacou-se o desenvolvimento de sintomas psíquicos, especialmente o sofrimento pela expectativa e distanciamento sociais. Assim, a pandemia trouxe agravos à saúde desses profissionais. Espaços de escuta coletiva, qualificação dos profissionais e maior valorização dos trabalhadores podem minimizar os riscos identificados.

Authors: Papkova Anna Stanislavovna , Shybanov Evgeny Borisovich
Published: December 2022

Satellite measurements are one of the main sources of data on the state of the marine environment. To obtain information about the sea brightness coefficient , it is needed to correctly carry out atmospheric correction. In the presence of dust aerosol over the Black Sea, physically incorrect values of the spectral brightness coefficient often occur, and specifically negative values in the IR region of the spectrum. The main objective of the study is to evaluate the influence of dust aerosol on the spectral dependence of sea brightness, based on analytical calculations from the transfer theory using the principle of plane-parallel layers and results of validation of AERONET-OC field and remote sensing data. The work analyzes spectral dependence of the first error eigenvector of the standard atmospheric correction in the presence of dust aerosol. As result it is given that with an absorbing aerosol, the atmospheric correction error is described by the spectral course of molecular scattering, i.e. close to

Plankton monitoring by microscopy offers long-term ecological perspective of plankton com-munities but different detection approaches are biased uniquely. Genetic identification of marine plankton has become standard but is still not used in routine monitoring. This study assessed the diversity of plankton taxa using 18S high throughput sequencing from 2011-2012 from small-volume (~200ml) samples from the Water and Microplankton Sampler (WaMS) deployed on the Continuous Plankton Recorder platform (CPR). The 18S-HTS survey revealed a bias towards heterotrophic taxa, and phototrophs under 10µm within the photosynthetic community. In comparison with phytoplankton microscopic counts from the CPR survey and Western Channel Observatory station L4, only 8-12 taxonomic families were common to all three surveys, with a bias towards larger diatoms and dinoflagellate taxa in microscopy surveys. The WaMS survey detected a contrasting but complementary taxa set to that of microscopic surveys. Additional Quantitative PCR was carried out on the picoeukaryotic pelagophyte, Aureococcus anophagefferens, and the nanoeukaryotic potential harmful algae, Pseudo-nitzschia delicatissima, from 2011-2013. This confirmed the persistence presence of A. anophagefferens in the Western Channel and an elevated abundance of both species in 2011. Species specific seasonality were distinct from those of aggregrate phytoplankton groups.

Published: December 2022

We investigate the extent to which a two-level quantum system subjected to an external time-dependent drive can be characterized by supervised learning. We apply this approach to the case of bang-bang control and the estimation of the offset and the final distance to a given target state. The estimate is global in the sense that no a priori knowledge is required on the parameters to be determined. Different neural network algorithms are tested on a series of data sets. We point out the limits of the estimation procedure with respect to the properties of the mapping to be interpolated. We discuss the physical relevance of the different results.

Published: December 2022

Mechanochemical production of copper (II) isonicotinate Metal-Organic Framework ([Cu (INA)2]-MOF) and its modified magnetic iron composite ([Cu (INA)2]-MOF@Fe3O4]) allowed for the adsorptive removal of Terbutaline from water. A variety of characterization techniques, including Fourier, transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR), thermogravimetric analysis (TGA), X-ray diffraction (XRD), and scanning electron microscopy (SEM), were used to elucidate the distinct chemical and morphological features of the two advanced materials. The optimal adsorption conditions were determined by investigating a wide range of adsorption-related variables, including contact time, initial Terbutaline concentration, adsorbent dosages pH, and temperature. The chemistry involved in the adsorption process between the adsorbents and the adsorbate molecules was evaluated using the best-fitting models, such as kinetics, isotherms, and thermodynamics, and the regeneration study was performed to evaluate the adsorbents' reusability. Incredibly maximum adsorption capacities (Qmax) of 1667 and 2500 mg L-1 were attained within 40 minutes under alkaline pH 11 by the [Cu (INA)2]-MOF and the [Cu (INA)2]-MOF@Fe3O4, respectively. The adsorbents have been proven to be good for the adsorption of Terbutaline as a priority pollutant in an aqueous solution, with pseudo-first order and Langmuir as the best-fitting models for the kinetic and isotherm models respectively.

Published: December 2022

Edible films were produced combining pectin (P) matrix with chitosan nanoparticle (CSNP), polysorbate 80 (T80), and garlic essential oil (GEO) as an antimicrobial agent. The CSNP were analyzed for their size and stability, and the films, throughout their contact angle, scanning electron microscopy (SEM), mechanical and thermal properties, WVP and antimicrobial activity. Four filming-forming suspension were investigated: PGEO (control); PGEO@T80; PGEO@CSNP; PGEO@T80@CSNP. The average particle size was 317nm with zeta potential reaching +21.4 mV, which indicated colloidal stability. The wettability of the films exhibited values of 65°, 43°, 78°, 64° respectively. In antimicrobial tests, the films containing GEO showed inhibition only by contact for S.aureus. For E. coli, the inhibition occurred only in films containing CSNP and by direct contact in the culture. The results indicate a promising alternative for designing stable antimicrobial nanoparticles for application in novel food active packaging.

Published: December 2022

Bovine respiratory disease (BRD) is a major health problem within the global cattle industry. This disease has a complex aetiology, with viruses playing an integral role. In this study, metagenomics was used to sequence viral nucleic acids in the nasal swabs of BRD affected cattle. Viruses detected included those well known for their association with BRD in Australia (bovine viral diarrhea virus 1), as well as viruses known to be present but not fully characterised (bovine coronavirus) and viruses that have not been reported in BRD affect cattle in Australia (bovine rhinitis, bovine influenza D, and bovine nidovirus). Nasal swabs from a case control study were subsequently tested for 10 viruses and the presence of at least one virus was found to be significantly associated with BRD. Some of the more recently detected viruses had inconsistent association with BRD. Full genome sequences for bovine coronavirus, a virus increasingly associated with BRD, and bovine nidovirus were complete. Both viruses belong to the Coronaviridae family, which are frequently associated with disease in mammals. This study has provided greater insights into the viral pathogens associated with BRD and highlighted the need for further studies to elucidate more precisely the roles viruses play in BRD.
LDM: A Systematic Review on Lie detection Methodologies
Authors: Saini Rupinder , Rani Pooja
Published: December 2022

In our day-to-day life, Lie detection has a significant concern. We human beings are very much inaccurate while detecting the liars and We believe in what we are told. Lie detection is important in today’s life, because Concealing the information or faking it can sometimes take you to huge problems. In any areas like airport management[2], criminal investigations, counterterrorism, etc this concept has great importance. It is an evergreen challenging and changing topic. This paper presents the common technique which was followed up till now and why it was not considered effective and a review of Robust solutions to detection of deception. People generally do not[3] always believe on what someone says but also try to visualize their facial expressions. While in Robust solution these facial micro-expressions are identified, which are tiny, natural expressions seen on the individual’s face, when they try to conceal or suppress emotions. In addition, the article also provides the year-wise assessment and analysis of research articles published in the area of Lie detection from 2011 to 2022. In the end, our proposed framework for lie detection system is also presented. This paper cover up current issues as well as challenges that could be helpful to resolve in future research works. The review paper closes up by supporting future directions.

Objective: to evaluate the feasibility of the intra-operative application of a specimen PET/CT imager in a clinical setting. Materials and methods: this is a pilot analysis performed in three patients who received an intra-operative administration of 68Ga-PSMA-11 (n=2) and 68Ga-DOTA-TOC (n=1), respectively. Patients were administrated with PET radiopharmaceuticals to perform radio-guided surgery with a beta-probe detector during radical prostatectomy for prostate cancer (PCa) and salvage lymphadenectomy for recurrent neuroendocrine tumor (NET) of the ileum, respectively. All procedures have been performed within two ongoing clinical trials in our Institute (NCT05596851 and NCT05448157). Pathologic assessment with immunohistochemistry (PSMA-staining and SSA immunoreactivity) was considered as standard of truth. Specimen images were compared with baseline PET/CT images and histopathological analysis. Results: Patients received 1 MBq/Kg of 68Ga-PSMA-11 (PCa) or 1.2 MBq/Kg of 68Ga-DOTA-TOC (NET) prior to surgery. Specimens were collected, positioned in the dedicated specimen container, and scanned to obtain high resolution PET/CT images. In all cases a perfect match was observed between the findings detected by the specimen imager and histopathology. Overall, the PET spatial resolution was sensibly higher for the specimen images compared to the baseline whole-body PET/CT images. Furthermore, the use of the PET/CT specimen imager did not significantly interfere with any procedures, and the overall length of the surgery was not affected using the PET/CT specimen imager. Finally, the radiation exposure of the operating theater staff was lower than 40 µSv per procedure (range 26 – 40 Sv). Conclusion: the image acquisition of specimens obtained by patients who received intra-surgery injection of 68Ga-PSMA-11 and 68Ga-DOTA-TOC was feasible and reliable also in a live-experience session and has been easily adapted to surgery daily-practice. The high sensitivity, together with the evaluation of intra-lesion tumor heterogeneity, were the most relevant results since the data derived from specimen PET/CT imaging matched perfectly with the histopathological analysis.
Rotational Distortion and Compensation in Optical Coherence Tomography with Anisotropic Pixel Resolution
Authors: Ma Guangying , Son Taeyoon , Adejumo Tobiloba , Yao Xincheng
Published: December 2022

Accurate image registration is essential for eye movement compensation in optical coherence tomography (OCT) and OCT angiography (OCTA). The spatial resolution of an OCT instrument is typically anisotropic, i.e., different resolutions in the lateral and axial dimensions. When OCT images have anisotropic pixel resolution, residual distortion (RD) and false translation (FT) were always observed after image registration for rotational movement. In this study, RD and FT were quantitively analyzed over different degrees of rotational movement and various lateral and axial pixel resolution ratio (RL/RA) values. The theoretical analysis confirmed that the RD and FT increase significantly with the rotation degree and RL/RA. An image resizing assisting registration (RAR) strategy was proposed for accurate image registration. The performance of direct registration (DR) and RAR for retinal OCT and OCTA images were quantitatively compared. Experimental results confirmed that unnormalized RL/RA causes RD and FT, RAR can effectively improve the performance of OCT and OCTA image registration and distortion compensation.
White Holes are Christmas Magic
Authors: Gaztanaga Enrique
Published: December 2022

In classical General Relativity, White Holes (WH) refer to the time reverse Schwarzschild (SW) Black Hole (BH) solution of a point mass $M$ and gravitational radius $r_S=2GM$. The SW metric is static so that a time reverse WH solution simply corresponds to a violation of causality. The WH solution does not make any physical sense here. For a more physical model, such as the Lemaitre-Tolman-Bondi (LTB) metric with finite mass inside $r_S$, we show that both the expanding and collapsing solutions correspond to a BH and not to a WH.
Sex Differences in Exercise-Induced Effects on Immune Function
Authors: Rodriguez Bauza Daniel Enrique , Silveyra Patricia
Published: December 2022

The practice of physical activity is an effective non-pharmacological strategy for preventing and treating chronic diseases. A large body of evidence has contributed to establishing a positive correlation between a physically active lifestyle and health benefits, including enhanced vaccination responses, lower numbers of senescent T-cells, increased T-cell proliferative capacity, lower levels of inflammatory cytokines, and improved neutrophil and macrophage function. While females are generally thought to exert more robust immune responses than males in response to a variety of challenges, and both male and female sex hormones have been suggested as mediators of immune function, research on this topic has not always been designed with a sex-specific lens. The goal of this review is to summarize the available experimental and clinical evidence linking exercise and immune function in male and female subjects, with an emphasis on sex differences and sex-specific mechanisms. Overall, the available evidence indicates that moderate exercise and physical activity improves immune function in both sexes, whereas prolonged and high-intensity exercise temporarily impairs immune responses at a higher degree in females. A role of male and female sex hormones in these sex-specific effects is also discussed.

Background: Idiopathic normal pressure hydrocephalus is a syndrome with neuroradiological findings and clinical pattern characteristic but not specific for the pathology. Since the prevalence is growing due to the rapidly aging society, standardized and validated protocol for diagnosis is needed, also because this condition may mimic other disorders among elderly such as Parkinson's and Alzheimer's disease. Material and methods: We analysed data from 44 patients with suspect diagnosis of idiopathic normal pressure hydrocephalus with age > 60 years, clinical triad and neuroradiological pattern examined in our ward from November 2018 to November 2022. Neu-ropsychological assessment includes Mini Mental State Examination and Mental Deterioration Battery. Motor scores were collected from gait and balance tests. The evaluation was performed before and after an extended lumbar drainage last 48h. Patients who has scores improvement after the extended lumbar drainage, undergo ventriculoperitoneal shunt with a programmable valve. Results: All patients undergo neuropsychological assessment and motor tests, only 2 patients were unable to perform motor tests because bedridden. 16 patients showed no benefit from the tests, in 2 cases even a worsening of cognitive performance. 28 patients showed an improvement in their performances, but in most cases the improvement involved only the neuropsychological as-sessment. All patients underwent ventriculoperitoneal shunt have had a typical answers pattern in Mental Deterioration Battery test. We performed 9 ventriculoperitoneal shunt and 1 ventricu-lo-atrial shunt. Conclusions: Qualitative neurocognitive tests come out to be more sensitive compared to quantitative neurocognitive tests in identifying patients with suspected idiopathic normal pressure hydrocephalus benefiting from extended lumbar drainage test and then un-derwent surgical treatment. This could be considered a valid screening in elderly patients with suspected idiopathic normal pressure hydrocephalus in order to minimize the number of invasive procedures. More studies are necessary to validate this tool.

Due to the global warming and dynamic changes in pathogenic virulence, leaf rust caused by Puccinia triticina has greatly expanded its epidermic region and become a severe threat to global wheat production. Genetic bases of wheat resistance to leaf rust mainly relies on the leaf rust resistance (Lr) gene or quantitative trait locus (QLr). Although these genetic loci have been insensitively studied during the last two decades, an updated overview of Lr/QLr in a genome-wide level is urgently needed. This review summarized recent progresses in genetic studies of wheat resistance to leaf rust. Wheat germplasms with great potentials in genetic improvement of resistance to leaf rust were highlighted. Key information about the genetic loci carrying Lr/QLr were summarized. A genome-wide chromosome distribution map for all the Lr/QLr was generated based on the released wheat reference genome. In conclusion, this review has provided valuable sources for both wheat breeders and researchers to understand the genetics of resistance to leaf rust in wheat.

Published: December 2022

The article presents the results of atomistic modeling of the equilibrium thermophysical properties of gold in a wide temperature range (T~ 0.3–3.50 kK), covering the regions of first-order phase transitions of melting and evaporation. The temperature dependences of the density, linear size of the sample, coefficient of linear expansion, enthalpy, and heat capacity are determined. The obtained dependences of the properties of gold are approximated by polynomials of low degrees. There is an acceptable agreement between the obtained characteristics of gold and the experimental data. Numerical and graphic information on the obtained properties and results of comparison with experimental data is presented.

Published: December 2022

El Bosque seco Tropical (BsT) es uno de los ecosistemas más amenazados del planeta dada la pérdida de cobertura vegetal causada por actividades antropogénicas. Entender cómo se dan las interacciones planta-animal en este tipo de ecosistemas es particularmente importante porque promueven su mantenimiento y funcionamiento. Nuestro objetivo fue identificar las interacciones entre murciélagos frugívoros y plantas a través de redes de interacción mutualistas en diez remanentes de BsT del Valle del Cauca. Para esto se caracterizó el ensamblaje de murciélagos y las semillas encontradas en sus heces y se evaluaron las propiedades estructurales de redes (anidamiento, modularidad y robustez). Se encontraron 36 especies de murciélagos y 1142 individuos; adicionalmente, se identificaron 19 669 semillas y 85 interacciones entre 18 especies de murciélagos y 19 especies de plantas. La red de interacción resultante presentó una estructura anidada, modular y robusta a la pérdida de especies especialistas pero susceptible a la pérdida de especies generalistas. Estos resultados dejan en evidencia la importancia de los murciélagos para el análisis de las interacciones planta-animal y a su vez los propone como un grupo clave para ser incluidos en planes de conservación y restauración de ecosistemas altamente perturbados como el BsT del Valle del Cauca.

La gestión eficiente de conflictos entre los usos y actividades en el medio marino-costero es fundamental para el éxito de la Planificación Espacial Marina (PEM). Nuestro objetivo fue el de realizar un geo-análisis de usos y actividades presentes en la jurisdicción de las Capitanías de Puerto de Tumaco y Guapi en Colombia para identificar los posibles conflictos presentes. Utilizamos información geográfica de usos y actividades del medio marino-costero disponible en geo-portales nacionales, se consultó a 23 expertos interinstitucionales para realizar la ponderación de las matrices de conflictos, se realizó un análisis de las interacciones entre los usos y actividades apoyados de análisis espacial, se identificaron los principales conflictos en función de criterios específicos y se realizó la cartografía para la ubicación de los conflictos. Se generó una base de datos con 39 capas geográficas, se encontró la mayor densidad de usos y actividades en aguas interiores, la fauna marina obtuvo el 11,81 % del total de interacciones, se identificaron 73 conflictos potenciales, donde el 23.29 % correspondió a un Índice de Conflicto alto y el 57.53 % de los conflictos ocurrieron entre usuario-ambiente. Con estos resultados aportamos a la gestión de los litorales colombianos dentro del contexto de la PEM.

El Parque Nacional Natural Munchique conserva ecosistemas estratégicos de Selva Inferior, Subandina y Andina, que han sido alterados por factores antrópicos; por ello, implementa una estrategia de restauración ecológica pasiva como alternativa para recuperar cobertura vegetal y proteger la biodiversidad. El monitoreo se realizó en un bosque subandino con 20 transectos tipo Gentry en dos procesos denominados restauración avanzada y restauración temprana, solo para los años 2013, 2015 y 2017, debido al orden público. Se censaron los individuos con DAP ≥ 1 cm. La riqueza en restauración avanzada fue de 35/2013, 39/2015 y 45/2017 especies mientras que en restauración temprana se registró una riqueza de 31/2013, 44/2015 y 45/2017. En los tres periodos de muestreo y para ambos procesos, las familias Rubiaceae y Melastomataceae fueron las más frecuentes. Restauración avanzada presentó una marcada dominancia de Miconia theizans con el 98 %/2013, 83 %/2015 y 65 %/2017 para el valor de importancia (IVI) y en restauración temprana la especie más importante fue Meriana speciosa con el 38 %/2013, 50 %/2015 y 55 %/2017. El monitoreo a largo plazo en ambos escenarios de restauración permitió evidenciar una recuperación lenta, pero efectiva para el aumento en diversidad y mejoramiento de la estructura vegetal.

La fragmentación del bosque subandino es preocupante, tanto por su valor intrínseco, como por los servicios ecosistémicos que provee. La restauración pasiva se presenta como una opción para contrarrestar esa situación. Esta investigación presenta información sobre la variación en la riqueza de la comunidad de aves frugívoras con relación al tiempo de regeneración natural del bosque para los periodos bianuales I (2012-2013), II (2014-2015) y III (2016-2017). Los registros de las aves se realizaron en seis puntos de observación para cada uno de los escenarios definidos (restauración temprana, avanzada y potrero), del PNN Munchique, departamento del Cauca. En total se registraron 50 especies de aves frugívoras de 15 familias, donde la familia Thraupidae representó el 44% de la riqueza de la comunidad de aves. Del total de especies, 43 eran frugívoros pequeños y siete de frugívoros medianos y grandes. El periodo con mayor riqueza fue el III con 36 especies y el menor fue el I con 15. Tras varios años de sucesión natural, se evidencia el aumento temporal en la riqueza de especies de aves frugívoras de pequeño tamaño, con la incorporación minoritaria de algunas especies de frugívoras medianas y grandes hacia el final del periodo de observación.
