ESTUDO DO EFEITO DO LASER DE BAIXA INTENSIDADE NO PROCESSO DE REPARO TECIDUAL EM CIRURGIAS DE MAMOPLASTIA: ESTUDO QUASE EXPERIMENTAL DUPLO CEGO
Authors: Ribeiro Ana Gabriela Aparecida , Jardim Angélica de Castro , Portugal Lidiane Ferreira
Published: November 2024

Mammoplasty is one of the most common and requested procedures globally. It is a surgery that is commonly performed in order to increase, reduce or correct ptosis, and can also be requested based on the desire to improve aesthetics and quality of life. Physiotherapy has several resources capable of helping in the prevention and reduction of post-surgical complications, among them, specifically, laser therapy, which is considered indicated as a therapeutic intervention in the healing of surgical wounds and among other procedures. A quasi-experimental, double-blind, qualitative, quantitative and descriptive research was conducted, and this was a comparative study between the breasts, where the laser was applied to the breast that was defined according to which the volunteer felt greater discomfort. However, it was dedicated to analyzing the benefits of the applicability of the low-intensity laser with the main focus on mammoplasty plastic surgeries in the initial phase of tissue repair. Six participants were recruited, of these, only one presented suture dehiscence. Regarding the characterization of the sample, the average age of the participants was 38 to 46 years. It should be noted that all participants did not have comorbidities. The application of the low-intensity laser showed significant statistical results in relation to pain and temperature according to the pre- and post-intervention methodology, regarding the temperature of the left breast, which suggests a positive effect of the treatment investigated in this study. Although the initial results were promising, the application of the therapeutic laser in the postoperative period still depends on further investigations to establish clear and universally applicable guidelines. With the advancement of science and the improvement of treatment protocols, it is possible that the laser becomes an increasingly effective and safe tool in postoperative management, contributing to the initial phase of tissue repair, providing lasting benefits for patients.

Published: November 2024

Great Saphenous Vein Incompetence (GSVI) is a condition in which the functioning of the venous valves is altered, resulting in decreased ability to propel blood along the capillaries. This leads to impaired venous return (VR), causing blood stasis, increased venous hydrostatic pressure, and extravasation of fluid into the interstitial space, resulting in edema. Edema favors the development of an inflammatory process that acidifies the region by altering the potential hydrogen (pH). Its aggravation causes pain, heaviness, paresthesias and fatigue in the lower limbs. Less invasive techniques with fewer side effects have been sought for treatment. Thus, Medicinal Biomagnetism (MB), a therapy developed by Isaac Goiz Durán, consisting of the application of magnets in specific places of the body, aiming to restore the pH, consequently restoring dysfunctions and flows and promoting body homeostasis, presents itself as one more possible treatment for circulatory disorders. Objective: The objective is to evaluate the contribution of MB as a form of treatment for cases of venous insufficiency. Methodologie: This case study evaluated and compared the symptomatology and Color Doppler results performed in a 65-year-old female volunteer diagnosed with GSVI before and after MB application. Results: After the MB treatment, there was an improvement in the symptoms reported by the participant and the reports of the Color Doppler exams of the lower limbs showed a reversal of the great saphenous vein incompetence to competent GSV. Conclusion: MB can contribute to the treatment/prevention of circulatory disorders in the lower limbs.

Published: November 2024

Helicobacter pylori (H. pylori) is a pathogenic bacterium commonly found in humans and widely distributed among the global population. It induces a chronic inflammatory process in the gastric mucosa resulting in symptoms such as burning sensation, dyspepsia, and epigastric pain. Medicinal Biomagnetism (MB) is a diagnostic and therapeutic system developed by Isaac Goiz Durán (1941-2021) which targets the root cause of diseases and restores the body’s metabolic balance. This study aimed to evaluate the effectiveness of Medicinal Biomagnetism (MB) in treating H. pylori through a real case study involving descriptive and interpretative analysis of MB screenings, questionnaire interpretation, and conclusions. The results demonstrated that MB effectively combated H. pylori infection and improved the patient’s symptoms. These findings suggest that MB may be a viable therapeutic technique when combined with integrative medicine, offering a non-invasive, natural, and cost-effective approach to H. pylori treatment.
MEDICINAL BIOMAGNETISM IN THE TREATMENT OF UTERINE MYOMA – A PROTOCOL
Authors: Artur Juliana Ribeiro , Gasparoti Rosana Maria , Martini Angela Mara Rambo , Bossa Adriane Viapiana
Published: November 2024

Medicinal Biomagnetism (MB) is an Integrative and Complementary Practice in Health (PICS – Prática Integrativa e Complementar em Saúde) in Brazil. This therapeutic system was developed by Dr. Isaac Goiz Durán, in 1988. The practice consists of recognizing points with altered energy in the human body. Once the imbalances are identified and the bioenergetic dysfunctions corrected, it adjusts to the pH of the tissues involved and its health is restored. The MB uses Static Magnetic Fields (SMF) for the treatment in a non-invasive and easy to apply way. After more than 30 years of clinical practice, protocols for the treatment of various diseases were created. Uterine Fibroids or Myomas are benign smooth muscle tumors. There is an exaggerated growth of the myometrium cells in a delimited way, giving the myomas the appearance of nodules. The objective of this work is to present a protocol for the treatment and prevention of Uterine Fibroids. The methodology used in this study was a described bibliographic review of a quantitative and exploratory nature of related themes for the selection and presentation of the Uterine Fibroids Protocol. It can be used by health professionals, therapists or people who strive for self-responsibility in care, disease prevention or improvement in quality of life. It was concluded that it is important to continue producing scientific evidence related to the use of MB protocols, without leaving aside the preventive principle proposed by the PICS in Brazil, to simply stimulate self-care and self-management of quality of life.

Comunidades de conocimiento, ideología y la Nueva Escuela Mexicana: estudio de los imperativos praxiológicos e ideológicos de un modelo educativo en México
Authors: Reyes Toxqui Alvaro , González Ávila Patricia
Published: November 2024

La llegada del actual régimen político mexicano (2018-2024) significó un cambio en las concepciones Estado y educación pública. Tras un largo período en donde prevalecieron las relaciones llamadas neoliberales, el discurso oficial destacó la formulación de políticas dirigidas al desarrollo local y al asistencialismo a favor de los pobres. Este cambio impactó en la reconducción del modelo de desarrollo económico y en la reformulación del proyecto educativo, el cual se conformó tardíamente, en 2022, en torno a objetivos extracurriculares: erradicar al individualismo identificado como neoliberal y apostar por un modelo educativo decolonial, libertario, comunitario y humanista. Así, el presente artículo revisa algunos planteamientos ideológicos de la propuesta educativa del gobierno de Manuel López Obrador y analiza el presupuesto que la enseñanza no debe centrarse no en el estudiante, sino en la comunidad o territorio como eje pedagógico.

Authors: AKINTUNDE, MUTAIRU OYEWALE  , OLALUDE, GBENGA ADELEKAN  , OLAWALE, ABOLADE OLUDAYO
Published: November 2024

Financial data must first be evaluated for forecast performance before being deemed appropriate for use in economic planning, according to policymakers, investors, academics, and end users. Failing to do so will undoubtedly result in a futile endeavor. The forecast accuracy of ARMA-GARCH and ST-GARCH is compared in this paper. Three SmoothTransition GARCH (ST-GARCH) models were examined: Logistic Smooth Transition (LST-GARCH), Exponential SmoothTransition (EST-GARCH), and Exponential Transition GARCH (ET-GARCH). After obtaining the relevant theoretical and mathematical frameworks, the gross domestic product of Nigeria was used as an empirical paradigm. Both the stationarity of the data and the descriptive statistics were looked at in order to assess the state of the series used prior to its analysis.Here, the characteristics of the studied series demonstrate that it was stable at the first difference. It was then examined using specially written programs and the statistical analysis tool Statgraphics Centurion. The results showed that hybrids of LST-GARCH outperformed EST-GARCH, ARMA-GARCH, and ET-GARCH with exceptional performance. Thus, potential users are advised to utilize LST-GARCH.

Published: November 2024

El objetivo de esta investigación fue caracterizar fisicoquímica y organolépticamente el vino de mango (Mangifera Indica L), proveniente de tres tipos de tratamientos con diferentes tipos de azúcares aplicados al mosto previamente al proceso de fermentación, a fin de aportar información útil en la elaboración de vino de mango para el aprovechamiento de sus frutos en el departamento de Itapúa, y en regiones productoras en Paraguay. El diseño fue plenamente aleatorio con 3 tratamientos M1, M2, M3 y 3 repeticiones de cada uno, con agregado de azúcar blanca refinada y azúcar morena, y sin agregado de azúcar, ajustando previamente la Acidez Total y Acidez Iónica del mosto. Los tratamientos fueron puestos en bioreactores de 5 litros de capacidad. Inoculados con 1 g/L de Saccharomyces cerevisiae y estacionados a 25 °C por 15 días; luego se decantó, embotelló, encorchó y se volvió a estacionar por 75 días. Se demostró que existen diferencias estadísticamente significativas (p< 0,05) entre los tres tipos de tratamientos. El tratamiento M2 con azúcar morena presentó el mayor valor de grado alcohólico, mientras que el tratamiento con azúcar blanca M1 el mayor valor de Sólidos Solubles Totales. El tratamiento sin azúcar agregada presentó valores químicos por debajo de los valores arrojados en los tratamientos M1 y M2. Los valores arrojados por las determinaciones quimicas a los tres tratamientos M1, M2 y M3, se encuentran dentro de los parámetros establecidos por las normas de referencia COVENIN-1993 y COVENIN-1997, asi como los parámetros establecidos por la NORMA MERCOSUR/GMC/RES N 45/96 para vinos. En cuanto al análisis organoléptico, el vino más aceptado fue el del tratamiento M2, seguido por el tratamiento M1, y el menos aceptado fue el tratamiento M3.
Evaluación del Consumo de Agua Potable en Barrios/Domicilios de la Ciudad de Encarnación, Generación de Históricos y Concienciación e Instalación de Micro Medidores

Las personas conocen superficialmente los efectos del consumo indiscriminado de agua potable pero desconocen totalmente lo que una válvula mal cerrada, una mochila descompuesta o un caño roto significa para el delicado sistema de abastecimiento, más aun para la vida futura de nuestro preciado bien (el agua) y los costos que significan cada litro de ella colocados en su domicilio. Este estudio pretende demostrar lo importante que es la medición por medio de micromedidores en los domicilios particulares ya que bajo el cobro por el uso del agua potable genera una determinante concienciación. El trabajo estadístico acompañado de información y cálculo de consumo verificó y analizó este efecto. No es sino con tecnología e investigación que se comprende la forma de pensar del usuario tradicional y su consumo diario. El objetivo principal permitió conocer los datos de consumo per cápita en nuestra zona. Los objetivos específicos fueron determinantes ya que extendieron el estudio por el camino correcto y permitieron develar información no conocida. Los resultados son preocupantes, el consumo indiscriminado es un hecho y solo la instalación de micromedidores por usuario permite regular su consumo al valor óptimo, sin derroche.

Published: November 2024

Muestras de hojas de arroz (Oryza sativa L.) fueron colectados en los Departamentos de Itapúa, Misiones y Caazapá con el objetivo de cuantificar los principales agentes patógenos causantes de enfermedades foliares del arroz en Paraguay en el ciclo del cultivo 2014/2015. Los trabajos de laboratorio consistieron en observaciones macroscópicas y microscópicas de estructuras reproductivas del hongo; siembra de material infectado en cámaras húmedas; aislamientos en medios de cultivo PDA y purificación con el método punta de hifa. Para calcular el porcentaje de incidencia se contaron las especies fúngicas desarrolladas en cámara húmeda. Se utilizaron claves taxonómicas especializadas para determinar las especies fúngicas predominantes en las muestras colectadas. Los 5 patógenos de mayor incidencia fueron Bipolaris oryzae (45,0%), Alternaria padwickii (45,8%), Microdochium oryzae (15,0%), Cercospora spp (40,3%) y Pyricularia oryzae (9,5 %).
