Pulmonary contusion presents the most common, but highly controversial chest injury when diagnosed; however, the data on pulmonary contusion rate found in Russian and foreign literature is rather scarce. Pulmonary contusion rate was stated to be 30,6% among casualties with associated mechanical traumas, and 50,6% for associated chest trauma. In its turn it was 4,3% for ballistic injuries, whereas the rate amounted up to 15,7% for injuries with the leading chest trauma. It should be stressed that chest ballistic injuries accompanied by pulmonary contusion when compared with mechanical traumas were characterized by more massive lung parenchyma damage, and the proportion of extensive pulmonary contusion reached 66,1%. Among ballistic injuries with pulmonary contusion blast trauma constituted 15,4%, fragment wounds – 32%, bullet wounds – 52,6%. The group of blast trauma casualties with pulmonary contusion appeared to demonstrate the most severe condition. This group was characterized by high complication rate (56,5%) and lethal outcomes (65,2%). The injury severity, however, was determined mainly by extrathoracic injuries, chest trauma being leading only in 17,4% of cases, and the proportion of extensive pulmonary contusion reached 44,6%. The group of pulmonary contusion casualties with associated fragment wounds when compared with blast wounds, were characterized by the decrease in total rate of injury severity and the increase in chest trauma severity, the chest being the leading damage area in 45,1% of cases. Chest injuries were penetrating in 90% of cases, being characterized by the significant increase in hemopneumothorax rate (by 5 times) and continuing intrapleural hemorrhage (by 4 times). The complication rate reached 66,6%, the proportion of pulmonary complications constituted 25,5%, the lethality rate was noted to decrease down to 25,5%. Pulmonary contusion associated with bullet wounds proved to be the most severe. It was significantly characterized by higher score according to the unbiased chest trauma diagnosis scale «Military field surgery – lung contusion» – 20,1±3,1, and by chest trauma severity score according to the scale «Military field surgery – injury gunshot wounds» – 5,8±0,6. The proportion of extensive pulmonary contusion in pleuropulmonary complications is 37,2%, the lethality rate increased up to 32,1%.

Relevance of the available threats of emergency situations of social character – acts of terrorism is defined. Scenario modeling of terrorist attack is carried out. The scientific base of a research of the medical and evacuation characteristic struck at mine and explosive and fire lesions is defined. The analysis of normative legal documents of the Russian Federation the defining place and a role of federal executive authorities in national security issues – counteraction to terrorism is submitted. The role of the Armed forces of the Russian Federation in counteraction to terrorism is defined and unique experience of activity of its health service is analyzed. It is shown that unique experience of health service is based not only as a result of medical support of troops (forces) and the population at elimination of medical and sanitary consequences of acts of terrorism and counter-terrorist operations, but also when carrying out peacekeeping operations and operations on fight against the international terrorism, and also at mitigation of consequences of emergency situations on explosive objects. It is defined that the most probable scenario of terrorist attack is, so-called, «The Parisian and (or) Izmir scenario». Studying of the medical and evacuation characteristic of sanitary losses as a result of scenario model of act of terrorism was based on standard results of influence of explosives with formation of gunshot and mine and explosive wounds. Scientific search is run and the task of determination of the most significant results on the movement struck to outcomes and duration of their treatment in medical military units (divisions) and the military-medical organizations with definition of characteristics of lesions was solved. As the instrument of definition of indicators of the medical and evacuation characteristic of wounded and patients, and also assessment of their influence the method of the medico-statistical analysis with use of the discriminant analysis and the analysis of survival with creation of linear discriminant functions and models of function of departure (extract) or Kaplan and Maier’s model served. The discriminant model with including of the factors which are significantly influencing the result of treatment with definition of the remote forecast struck at act of terrorism is developed and the model of duration of stay in medical military units (divisions) and the military-medical organizations is constructed. The received results of the medical and evacuation characteristic the struck and revealed factors which are significantly influencing an outcome and duration of their treatment are defined as basic of an object of the «model struck in emergency», basic for formation.

Published: November 2023

The current regulatory and legal framework for the Ministry of Health and the Ministry of Defense of the Russian Federation for regulating the provision of medical care to servicemen suffering from chronic infectious diseases (chronic viral hepatitis and infection caused by the human immunodeficiency virus) are considered. The problems of information support of rendering medical aid to servicemen of this category is estimated. The developed methodology and draft normative document of the collection of medical information’ organizing in the register of infectious pathology and servicemen infected with the infection caused by the human immunodeficiency virus are presented, and a provision on this register is developed. The content, volume and algorithm of creation of the information-analytical system of the register of infectious pathology and of the servicemen infected with the human immunodeficiency virus have been substantiated, as well as the need to introduce new technologies of medical document circulation into the medical service of the Armed Forces of Russia on the basis of personified accounting of servicemen and medical and psychological assistance rendered to them. It is shown that for the well-functioning of the register within the framework of an informed list of tasks, the high-speed secure communication channels between the participating military units, institutions and management bodies of the medical service will be required. Consequently, the improvement of the information support system for the management of the medical supply of troops in peacetime and wartime is an important component of improving the management of medical care for military personnel.

Published: November 2023

Students are special tuberculosis risk group as they are the most socially and economically unprotected. Study of knowledge on tuberculosis is an important medical and social proposal. Results of 630 questioning of students of high schools and colleges at the age of 18–23 years were analyzed and Pearson’s correlation was calculated. Knowledge on tuberculosis and its transmission ways was defined as insufficient and depended from sex and type of educational institution: girls and students of high schools gave much more the right answers by tuberculosis than students of technical training college and technical schools. Very low level of knowledge concerning prevention of tuberculosis was shown by the young people who arrived from villages of the republics of the North Caucasian Federal region whereas at their age-mates from villages of Stavropol region knowledge of prevention of tuberculosis was 2.5 times higher. Information on need examined by fluorography is carried to students of higher education institutions better – 69,0% in comparison with pupils of technical training colleges and technical schools – 52,9%. At the same time only 2,6% of respondents recognized the incompetence in tuberculosis prevention and symptoms. Study showed that it is necessary to increase hygienic education of non-medical students.

Authors: Kucherenko A. D. , Maryeva O. G. , Starkov I. I.
Published: November 2023

The results of the analysis of domestic and foreign literature devoted to the problems of diagnosis and treatment of breast cancer among female personnel are presented. It has been established that female servicemen have a tendency to increase the incidence of breast cancer. Possible differences in risk factors for breast cancer between military personnel and civilian women and the possibility of preventing breast cancer among female personnel are discussed. Despite the progress made in the diagnosis of breast cancer, the percentage of tumors released during initial treatment remains high. A high percentage of neglected forms of breast cancer among newly diagnosed tumors testifies not only to the formal nature of the on-site medical examination, but also to the insufficient oncological alertness of doctors and the low sanitary culture of servicemen. The need for screening breast cancer among female soldiers is grounded. The need to improve the system of providing assistance to female personnel suffering from breast cancer, providing early diagnosis, timely comprehensive treatment and dynamic observation. The creation of a single cancer registry of the Ministry of Defense of the Russian Federation is proposed. The necessity of introduction of uniform standards of diagnostics, treatment and prophylaxis of breast cancer for military health organizations is substantiated.

Information on modern types of inhalation devices for drug delivery in pulmonology is given. It is shown that pulmonology uses a wide arsenal of inhalation delivery devices, which have been used for a long time both for emergency treatment and for basis inhalation therapy. Now time inhalations of bronchodilators, glucocorticosteroids, antibacterial and mucolytic drugs are used. Different properties of medicinal substances dictate the need to optimize the methods of their delivery. All delivery devices have positive and negative characteristics. At the same time, there is currently no ideal devices for drug delivery. Ideal delivery devices should possess portability, speed and convenience of use, no complications in application, low oropharyngeal and high pulmonary deposition, high efficiency, no side effects, low cost. The physicochemical properties of the drugs used are also considered. In general, the current trend in modern medicine is the “targeted” delivery of the drug substance to the pathological focus, the creation of high drug deposits, the reduction of negative effects on the organism, which determines not only the therapeutic efficacy index (desired / undesirable effects) and the safety of the drug, but also patient’s compliance.
The uterine junctional zone of endoand myometrium: morphofunctional features and importance in obstetric and gynecologic pathogenic mechanism
Authors: Romanova O. A. , Churkin K. S. , Pechenikova V. A.
Published: November 2023

The integrated data of foreign authors on a structure, an embr yogenesis and functional features of the junctional zone, its value in development of pathology of a uterus and the course of pregnancy are submitted. It is established that a uterus consists of two layers: internal – an archimetra and external – neometra. The junctional zone belongs to the archimetra and represents the highly specialized hormone-dependent structure being is an inner (subvascular) layer of myometrium. Unlike endometrium the transformation zone isn’t available for aggressive approach, its structure and function can be estimated only by means of imaging modalities. The metastructure of myocytes of the junctional zone undergoes characteristic cyclic changes depending on a phase of the menstrual period, intake of hormonal contraceptives and the age of the patient. During the research of the junctional zone in women of different age gradual increase in thickness of this zone in patients aged of 30 years and older was revealed, and of 34 years and older the sharp increase in its thickness was noted. It is also stated that the junctional zone plays an important role in processes of implantation and placentation and together with endometrium represents a placental bed. Abnormality of the junctional zone could be the reason for early term miscarriages, failed attempts of in vitro fertilization and obstetric complications. On the basis of a number of comparative researches it is proved that the transformation zone thickness of more than 12 mm is the criterion of a uterus involvement by adenomyosis. Thus, the measurement of thickness of the junctional zone during the transvaginal ultrasonography and magnetic resonance imaging could be successfully applied to the screening of adenomyosis, and also to predictability of early term miscarriages and development of the pregnancy complications related to derangement of placentation.
Prospects for the study of medical and economic aspects of treatment of patients with urolithiasis
Authors: Dunets K. A. , Startsev V. Yu. , Tegza V. Yu.
Published: November 2023

The literature overview of the incidence rate on urolithiasis in the Russian Federation and, in particular, in population of some regions over the past 15 years is provided. We analyzed treatment methods for patients with calculi of kidneys, ureters and bladder, due to the current clinical possibilities. The article involves the discussion about the problems of implementation of modern minimally invasive methods as specialized medical care for patients with urolithiasis. We have compared the results of foreign investigations upon the clinical and economical effectiveness of medical technologies for that disease. While studying a database of domestic and foreign authors we have discovered the shortage of publications with the analysis of medico-economic arguments for minimally invasive technologies in urology. Given the high rate of development of urology as a clinical discipline, we find it expedient to properly estimate expenses and profitableness while using modern technologies in routine practice of medical institutions in Russian Federation. Heads of medical institutions in Russia note an insufficient amount of knowledge in the field of medical and economic analysis of the use of endoscopic techniques for kidney stones and ureters. When choosing the optimal method of intervention, specialists, mainly, turn to the questions of clinical effectiveness, rather than to the calculation of costs. Comparative analysis of the medical and economic substantiation of the methods of treatment of patients with urolithiasis in Russia has not yet been conducted. It is worthwhile to estimate not only the direct costs of performing surgical intervention and hospitalization of the patient, but also indirect costs: the costs of his outpatient treatment during rehabilitation, the lost profit of the enterprise where the patient is employed, etc. Generally, we have concluded that it is necessary to develop a system of economic evaluation of new medical technologies in treatment of urolithiasis which would help to efficiently use the foreign experience.

Published: November 2023

This review aims at basic etiological factors of occupational rhinitis and various reactions on them. The basic occupational allergens are characterized. Occupational allergic rhinitis is a widespread disease triggered by negative impacts of the work environment. According to the experts’ estimates, it affects no less than 15% of active population. However, it is supposed that the disease rate is higher for most patients prefer not to seek medical care, fearing to lose their jobs. The article provides a contemporary classification of rhinitis caused by occupational environment. Potential pathogenic mechanisms of the development of occupational rhinitis are reflected. The research defines IgE-dependent and non-IgE dependent occupational rhinitis. Nonallergic, irritant induced, occupational rhinitis is widely investigated, specifically, it’s most characteristic form – reactive upper airways dysfunction syndrome – caused by a single exposure to a highly concentrated irritant matter, such as gas, vapor, or smoke. The methods of diagnosing occupational rhinitis are observed according to their diagnostic value. Nasal provocative test is thoroughly described as a gold standard of occupational rhinitis diagnosis. The article introduces algorithms for diagnosis of rhinitis caused by occupational impacts. In addition, it discusses the issues of primary and secondary preventive measures against occupational rhinitis. The article provides an evaluation of working efficiency and social behavior of a diseased one according to the character, external evidence, speed of the pathologic process development, extent of the functional compensation, regress probability of pathologic changes after the removal of the contact with harmful occupational factor. Different ways to solve the issues of working efficiency are suggested.

Published: November 2023

Brief coverage of the use of medical information technology and electronic medical documentation in modern medical practice. The main positive aspects of its application in clinical medicine and in the administrative activities of medical organizations are considered. It was established that the human factor, the problems of financing and the development of new principles of medical records management are decisive when introducing new technologies in the daily work of the medical team and private practitioners. Principal moments important for different age categories of physicians influencing the development of new electronic resources are considered. It is shown that individual medical practice and insignificant personal clinical experience among young specialists, contributes to a more active use of medical information technologies. At the same time, not a high level of knowledge in computer science and computer skills, the need to move from habitual stereotypes of thinking and working with paper documents to fundamentally new forms of electronic medical records – are factors that prevent the introduction of digital technologies in large medical organizations, in A group of middle-aged and older doctors. Attention is drawn to the fact that problems arising in the development of new technologies can lead to administrative, and in the most severe cases – to legal liability. The data showing significant financial resources that are allocated in foreign countries for incentive payments to clinics as well as to specialists are given. Military specialists show considerable interest in the practical implementation of this problem. Data are provided on the amounts allocated by the United States Department of Defense to purchase the latest developments in electronic medical records to improve the quality of medical care for servicemen and their families. However, not always significant allocations lead to success.

Authors: Barut Gök Sıla , Özdüven Fatma , Eryılmaz Açıkgöz Funda
Published: November 2023

Microgreens, which have only become popular during the last decades, are rich in phytochemicals, including phenolic compounds, which act as antioxidants. The study aimed to examine the effects of two different harvest times (cotyledon [embryonic leaves] and 1.5-true leaf stage) of five microgreens on the bioactive compounds in terms of antioxidant capacity and total phenolics. The total phenolic components ranged from 60.9 to 2153.2 mg GAE g-1 in cotyledon leaves, whereas the value varied from 96.2 to 2113.9 mg GAE g-1 in the true leaves of microgreens. Increases in the phenolic content of the first true leaves in dill and chia were detected as 57.8% and 29.6% compared to the cotyledon leaf. Among the cotyledon microgreens, the maximum phenolic content was detected in the garden cress. The antioxidant capacity of the cotyledon and true leaf stages ranged between 485.4±2.3-1985.67±24.9 µg g-1 and 508.87±5.3-2393.56±12.6 µg g-1, respectively. The maximum antioxidant capacity was detected in radish, followed by garden cress. The biggest variation between the cotyledon and first true leaves in the study was observed for red beetroot. This study revealed the alteration in the phenolic content and antioxidant activity of five cultivars based on growth stages of cotyledonary and true leaves in microgreen form.

Published: November 2023

Cataract remains the most common cause of blindness worldwide and surgery is the only option to get rid of a cataract. Good anaesthesia is an essential requirement for performing safe cataract surgery. Peribulbar block using regional anaesthetic is the most common technique of administrating anaesthesia for cataract extraction.

The study aimed to know the relationship between the axial length and the minimal effective volume of the peribulbar block.

The study was done in a hospital based in the rural area of Panipat. It was a cross-sectional study done on patients who underwent cataract surgery and met the inclusion and exclusion criteria of the study. The patients were divided into two groups based on axial length and were given peribulbar block using 2% lignocaine with 1500 IU of hyaluronidase of 6 ml and 8 ml. The subsequent doses of the block were given in those in which adequate response was not present.

The study includes 100 patients divided into two groups. The patients in group 1 had axial lengths between 21-23.99 mm and the second group included patients with axial lengths of 24-26.99 mm. In group 1 the volume of peribulbar block given was higher than that in group 2. The maximum number of patients in group 1 (34) were given an 8 ml block and those in group 2 were given a 6 ml of block. The study had a p-value of 0.02.

In our study, we found that axial length has a negative correlation with the volume of the peribulbar block. It was also seen that there was an increase in IOP with more amount of local anaesthetic used in the peribulbar block.
High-Speed Internet and Socioemotional Wellbeing in Uruguayan Youth
Authors: Colombo Karina , Failache Elisa , Querejeta Martina
Published: November 2023

This paper analyses the causal effects of exposure to high-speed internet on socioemotional wellbeing in adolescence and youth. We exploit the geographic and cross-cohort differences in fiber optic accessibility given by the fiber-optic-to-the-home (FTTH) project developed in Uruguay in the period 2011-2018. We identify intention-to-treat effects by combining administrative data on FTTH rollout with large survey data specially designed to collect outcomes in youth. Our results show that access to high-speed internet has mixed effects on mental health. Going from 0 to a 100% probability in FTTH accessibility reduces the incidence of feeling lonely in 9 percentage points (pp) but increases the incidence of feeling worried in 9 pp. We also find an increase in the probability of having a medical visit in 10 pp, without statistically significant effects in visits to a psychologist or psychiatrist. Our results further evidence an increase in the probability of alcohol and marijuana consumption, showing that internet access can also affect risky behaviours. The analysis of heterogeneous effects by gender, age, region of residence, and educational background shows that, while the effect on feeling worried is observed across all sub-samples, the reduction in loneliness is mostly explained by boys, individuals under 18, and with lower educational background. Dissatisfaction with their way of being emerges as the leading mechanism behind the detrimental effect on feeling worried. We do not find any evidence on FTTH access displacing offline recreational activities at the extensive margin.

Published: November 2023

This document provides an overview of the current landscape of app-based collective transportation in Latin America and the Caribbean from the perspective of its contributions to social inclusion and environmental sustainability. The research builds on a review of the recent academic literature and a review of available secondary evidence from technical reports and policy documents. The analysis of secondary evidence is expanded upon through primary evidence from a stakeholder survey and semi-structured interviews with a select group of stakeholders in the transportation sector in the region. The manuscript shows the current situation in what remains an emerging industry in Latin America and the Caribbean, spanning from the terminology used by practitioners in different sectors to refer to app-based collective transportation, such as vanpooling, microtransit or micro transport, to the overview of different business approaches and regulatory responses in various contexts. The paper finalizes by presenting an evidence-based reflection of the prospects and expectations from different perspectives about the contribution of technology-enabled collective transportation to social and environmental challenges for transport in the region.
Dopuszczalność podejmowania uchwał przez rady gmin z wykorzystaniem zdalnego trybu obradowania
Authors: Bandarzewski Kazimierz
Published: November 2023

Transparentność działania rad gmin jest ważną wartością, która leży u podstaw demokratycznego państwa i pozwala na realny udział mieszkańców w kształtowaniu sposobu wykonywania żądań publicznych. Wyjątki od konstytucyjnej zasady jawności działania rad gmin dopuszczalne są jedynie wówczas, gdy wynika to wprost z ustawy. Taki wyjątek wprowadzono w ustawie regulującej funkcjonowanie administracji publicznej w okresie epidemii lub zagrożenia epidemicznego. Ustawodawca trafnie uznał, że choć jawność działań administracji jest wartością bardzo istotną, ważniejsza jest ochrona bezpieczeństwa zdrowotnego – życia i zdrowia mieszkańców. Podejmowanie uchwał korespondencyjnie lub z wykorzystaniem środków porozumiewania się na odległość nie może być stosowane w innych przypadkach niż bezpośrednio określonych w ustawie. Także zasada jawności jako wartość konstytucyjna nie może być ograniczana w statucie gminy.

Authors: SAYAN Saadet , KOTAN Dilcan , ÇİÇEKLİ Esen , ALEMDAR Murat
Published: November 2023

Aim: This study aimed to investigate the frequency, clinical and genetic characteristics, and therapeutic options associated with Fabry disease (FD) in individuals with acute stroke and concomitant renal insufficiency.

Material and Methods: An FD screening was performed on adult patients with renal dysfunction who were admitted to the neurology clinic due to acute stroke between 2015 and 2021. Screening was performed by a leukocyte α-galactosidase A (α-Gal A) enzyme activity assay using dried blood spot (DBS) samples from male patients. In cases where the enzyme activity was less than 2.5 nmol/ml/h, genetic analysis was performed. Female patients underwent direct genetic analysis.

Results: Renal dysfunction was detected in 39 ischemic stroke patients and 5 hemorrhagic stroke patients out of a total of 401 cases. The enzyme level was found low in only one of the male patients. The c.680G>A (p.R227Q) mutation was observed in this male patient and a female patient. In the later stages of the study, it was realized with the help of pedigree analysis that these two cases were first-degree relatives. The same mutation was also detected in 13 first-degree and 2 second-degree relatives. The frequency of FD in our study group, which included patients with cerebral and renal involvement regardless of consanguinity, was 4.54%.

Conclusion: Rapid detection of FD cases can be achieved by screening individuals presenting with multiple end-organ damages. To the best of our knowledge, this study highlights the underemphasized association between renal involvement and stroke in FD.

In this case report, the 6-month telenutrition counseling process of a 13-year-old male patient diagnosed with spinal muscular atrophy type 2 was discussed. Severe malnutrition was observed in the patient, who used a wheelchair and was fed orally. As a result of examining all the findings, a 6-month telenutrition counseling process was started with a diet containing 50 kcal/kg of energy and 1.85 g/kg of protein per day. At the end of the process, the patient’s body weight increased from 30.5 kg to 35 kg, the body mass index increased from 13.6 kg/m2 to 15.6 kg/m2, and the body mass index Z-score value for age increased from -3.04 to -1.75. The family expressed satisfaction with the counseling process. Patients diagnosed with spinal muscular atrophy require medical nutritional therapy counseling. Telenutrition counseling is considered beneficial in reaching patients and ensuring the treatment process.

This work aims to make visible the contribution made by Universidad de La Salle through the Utopía Project to Sustainable Rural Development in Yopal, Colombia. For this purpose, three strategies were applied: a literature review on intellectual production around Sustainable Rural Development on the Scopus Database; a documentary review of the Productive Projects in the Zone of Origin executed by young rural university students of Agronomic Engineering between the years 2016-2020; and seventeen structured interviews to students on three zones of Colombia: Casanare, Santander, and Cesar. This methodology allowed the conceptualization of Sustainable Rural Development and Productive Projects of Origin, as well as helped to determine the three dimensions of rural development: economic, social, and environmental. The research work allowed us to identify the impact of the “Utopía” project on Colombian rurality from the accompaniment of peasants, rural students, women, and indigenous people of the different territories and a revitalization of the economy in rural territories using agricultural services and wages for peasants. Finally, the work managed to show that there are initiatives by rural youth aimed at integrating agricultural productivity and environmental care as part of Sustainable Rural Development.

El corpus documental aquí reunido constituye un hallazgo de archivo inédito en la historia de le educación colombiana del siglo xix, se trata de una serie de "composiciones" que fueron redactadas por los aspirantes a maestros de escuela elemental y secundaria en sus exámenes de graduación de la Escuela Normal de Cundinamarca, la más sobresaliente de las que se abrieron en Colombia desde 1871.  A través de estos discursos entusiastas y cargados con el optimismo propio de los primeros graduados en las escuelas de formación de maestros de una época que quiso ser de renovación republicana, leemos a la vez las expectativas de quienes promovieron este programa educativo de alcance nacional, la distancia creciente que nos separa de ellos y la herencia posible que se formula en estas letras vibrantes, lucidas e ilustradas, como las quisieron los pedagogos formadores de esta generación de maestros.
Formas y expresiones metodológicas en el último Foucault
Authors: Pulido Cortés Óscar , Espinel Bernal Óscar Orlando
Published: November 2023

Un libro sobre Foucault y su incidencia en la investigación y la pedagogía, es una apuesta por pensar la actualidad, el presente y las resonancias de un pensamiento, actualizar es utilizar su pensamiento para construir problemas o situaciones de problemas.  Lo importante de trabajar con Foucault hoy es saber qué se puede hacer con su pensamiento y de su pensamiento, es estar inmersos en una actitud, la actitud crítica y ser fieles a ella.  La invitación de Foucault siempre fue usar sus libros como cajas de herramientas, que todos puedan emprenderlos de acuerdo con sus necesidades, opciones, reparos y reflejos, ellos pueden ser utilizados para la comprensión de los fenómenos, la conceptualización y las batallas de orden político.  Por esta razón no existe un único y universal Foucault, existen varias y múltiples formas de utilizarlo, es un pensamiento 'metodológico', estratégico que posibilita combatir la sumisión y dominación y permite asumir líneas de fuga, formas de contraconductas y prácticas de libertad, en un movimiento continuo de descentramiento y nueva ubicación conceptual y teórica.

Cómo escribir una historia que incluya a la gran mayoría de personas que vivieron en el pasado?  Por medo siglo esta pregunta ha tenido una cierta urgencia, no sólo por razones historiográficas sino también porque la respuesta ha sido considerada central en los proyectos que  buscan ganar la inclusión en la sociedad de grupos sociales previamente excluidos.  En la década de 1960 la historia social creció rápidamente y tuvo bastante éxito en ayudar a nuestra comprensión de muchos grupos sociales, como los esclavos, las mujeres y los obreros, especialmente en lo tocante a su vida cotidiana y sus labores.  Sin embargo, estas personas que entraron en la historia social raramente aparecieron en la historia política, salvo en resistencia a la política dominante.

Esta investigación muestra formas de participación de las mujeres en avance del desarrollo científico desde sus aportes en matemática, especialmente destaca la trayectoria de tres matemáticas colombianas. Se analizan los factores de mayor incidencia durante el proceso de formación académica en sus logros científicos. Es un análisis desde la historia social de la educación, que compara el desarrollo de los estudios en matemáticas en tres universidades colombianas, así como la situación relativa a los géneros, tanto académica como social. Por medio de la historia oral se examina la influencia del entorno familiar en la elección de la carrera profesional de tres matemáticas colombianas destacadas. La estructuración se basa en los métodos de la historia social, se acude a la fenomenología para la descripción-narración de los hechos y se apoya en la hermenéutica para la interpretación de los datos recolectados. La comparación de la educación de estas tres eminentes matemáticas nos permite concluir que su avance académico estuvo motivado gracias a su propia iniciativa y a sus vivencias en la formación escolar. Y, por último, queremos resaltar que el gran logro académico con su Doctorado en Matemáticas significa la conquista del desafío de ser ejemplos de vida e inspiración para futuras matemáticas.
