A la luz de las implicaciones de la psicología positiva, recientemente se ha dedicado atención al estudio del humor y su relación con la salud destacando sus beneficios para las personas. Esta conceptualización como “humor terapéutico” ha promovido investigaciones (Cann y Etzel, 2008; Capps, 2006; Erickson y Feldstein, 2007; Kuiper, Martin y Olinger, 1993; Martin et al., 2003; Vilaythong, Aranu, Rosen y Mascaro, 2003) que han derivado en la elaboración de diferentes escalas del humor, determinando que existen diferentes estilos del mismo. Algunos estilos de humor tienen claras raíces en la historia y cultura dominicana como es discutido en este trabajo. El objetivo de esta investigación es estudiar los diferentes estilos de humor, su relación con la edad, con la felicidad subjetiva y con la depresión en una muestra de 145 universitarias dominicanas. Se utilizan instrumentos como el Cuestionario de Estilos de Humor (HSQ) (Martin et al., 2003), la Escala de Depresión del Centro para Estudios Epidemiológicos (Kohout, Berkman, Evans y Cornoni-Huntley, 1993) y la Escala de Felicidad Subjetiva (Lyubomirsky y Lepper, 1999). Los resultados muestran diferencias entre los diversos estilos de humor con excepción del humor agresivo y de descalificación que resultan semejantes en su intensidad de manifestación: el humor de mejora personal es el menos prevalente, seguido del afiliativo y ambos son significativamente menores en promedio que el resto, los nocivos. Las jóvenes dominicanas, arrojan al igual que poblaciones descritas en literaturas como la española, un perfil con predominanciade humor agresivo y de descalificación sobre el uso del humor afiliativo y de mejora personal. Se observa un comportamiento diferencial con la depresión del humor agresivo y el descalificativo: solo el segundo es significativo, y tiene signo negativo. Los cuatro estilos de humor se muestran independientes de la edad.

Introducción: La tuberculosis (TB) en niños posee limitaciones en la confirmación microbiológica. Por su naturaleza paucibacilar y la dificultad para obtener muestras microbiológicas adecuadas, la positividad de cultivos es baja. En adultos, la prueba Gene Xpert MTB/RIF® ha mostrado utilidad por su buen rendimiento, rapidez de resultados y facilidad en su realización. La Organización Mundial de la Salud (OMS) recomienda el empleo de esta prueba en niños, sin embargo, los datos de esta prueba en nuestro medio son limitados. Objetivo: Estudio de cohorte retrospectivo para describir nuestra experiencia con la prueba Gene Xpert MTB/RIF en menores de 15 años hospitalizados en un centro de alta complejidad con sospecha de TB pulmonar. Método: Se revisaron 116 historias clínicas con resultados disponibles de Xpert MTB/RIF en muestras respiratorias tomadas entre junio de 2012 y diciembre de 2013. Se excluyeron 33 casos. Los 83 pacientes incluidos se clasificaron como: TB confirmada 8 (10%), probable 16 (19%) y descartada 59 (71%) según criterios de la OMS. El análisis estadístico se realizó en SPSS 20 y EpiDat 3.1. Resultados: Xpert MTB/RIF mostró para TB confirmada una sensibilidad del 50%, especificidad 96% y valores predictivos positivos y negativos del 57,14 y 94,7%, respectivamente. Al evaluarla en el total de niños que ameritaron inicio de tratamiento (TB confirmada y probable), la sensibilidad fue del 29% con especificidad del 100%. Xpert MTB/RIF detectó una cepa resistente a rifampicina. Conclusión: Xpert MTB/RIF mostró ser útil para el diagnóstico de TB, con una sensibilidad superior a la baciloscopia. Un resultado positivo puede definir el inicio temprano de tratamiento en casos dudosos, confirma el diagnóstico y permite conocer rápidamente si existe resistencia a rifampicina. Un resultado negativo no descarta el diagnóstico ni debe impedir el inicio del tratamiento si cumple con la sumatoria de los otros criterios recomendados por la OMS.

Objetivos: Estimar la prevalencia y los factores relacionados con la infección por Clostridium difficile en un hospital de alta complejidad en Cali (Colombia). Métodos: Se realizó un estudio de casos y controles en pacientes que consultaron por diarrea o la desarrollaron durante la hospitalización y que tuvieron un resultado positivo en la prueba de PCR para Clostridium difficile. Durante el 2012 a 2014, se incluyeron 29 casos y 58 controles. Resultados: La prevalencia de Clostridium difficile hospitalaria en la institución fue de 10 por 10.000 pacientes hospitalizados; en 3 casos se identificó la cepa NAP1/ O27. Los factores relacionados a Clostridium difficile fueron la diabetes mellitus (OR = 7,4; IC 95%: 1,1-47,6; p = 0,035), la leucemia (OR: 4,1; IC 95%: 1,0-16,5; p = 0,043) y el consumo de antibióticos por más de 7 días (OR = 7,0; IC 95%: 2,3-21,1; p = 0,001). Conclusión: Se confirmó la asociación entre el uso previo de antibióticos y la infección por Clostridium difficile, de acuerdo con lo reportado en la literatura mundial. Este estudio describe por primera vez en nuestro país la cepa hipervirulenta NAP1/O27 en pacientes hospitalizados.

A new series of (E)-3-(3-(4-substituted phenyl)-1-phenyl-1H-pyrazol- 4-yl)-1-(2-hydroxy-4-((1-aryl-1H-1-2,3-triazol-4-yl)methoxy)phenyl)- prop-2-en-1-one derivatives was synthesized. The synthesis of the title compounds involved the 1,3-dipolar Cu(I)-catalyzed alkyne?azide cycloaddition (CuAAC) reaction of (E)-3-(3-(4-substituted phenyl)-1-phenyl-1H-pyrazol-4- -yl)-1-(2-hydroxy-4-(prop-2-yn-1-yloxy)phenyl)prop-2-en-1-ones with aromatic azides. The structures were confirmed by NMR, FT-IR, mass and elemental analysis. All the synthesized compounds (6a?j) were evaluated for their antimicrobial activity. Compounds 6a, 6d and 6e demonstrated promising inhibitory effects on both bacterial and fungal strains.

Molecular dynamics simulations were performed to study thermodynamics and structural properties of expanded caesium fluid. Internal pressure, radial distribution functions (RDFs), coordination numbers and diffusion coefficients have been calculated at temperature range 700?1600 K and pressure range 100?800 bar. We used the internal pressure to predict the metal?non-metal transition occurrence region. RDFs were calculated at wide ranges of temperature and pressure. The coordination numbers decrease and positions of the first peak of RDFs slightly increase as the temperature increases and pressure decreases. The calculated self-diffusion coefficients at various temperatures and pressures show no distinct boundary between Cs metallic fluid and its expanded fluid where it continuously increases with temperature.

Redox properties of a set of aryldiketo acids (ADKs), small organic molecules that comprise 2,4-dioxobutanoic acid moiety, were studied. Along with well-known HIV-1 integrase (IN) inhibition, ADKs exert widespread biological activities. The aim of this work was to evaluate the effects of aryl substitutions on the properties of the dioxobutanoic moiety that is involved in key interactions with metal ions within the active sites of target enzymes. The effect of pH on the electronic properties of nine congeners was examined using cyclic voltammetry and differential pulse polarography. The compounds were chosen as a simple set of congeners bearing Me-groups on the phenyl ring, which should not be involved in electrochemical reactions, leaving the diketo moiety as the sole electrophore. The substitution pattern was systematically varied, yielding a set having different torsion between the phenyl ring and the aryl keto group (Ar?C(O)). The protonation state of the ADKs at different pH values was determined from the experimentally obtained pKa values. The results showed that an equal number of protons and electrons were involved in the oxidation and reduction reactions at the surface of the electrode. Quantitative linear correlations were found between the reduction potentials and the energies of the frontier orbitals, calculated for neutral, mono-anionic and the corresponding radical anionic species, and the steric parameter as two independent variables.

In this paper an applied organic geochemical approach in studying the nature of organic matter (OM) in water and sediments of the River Ibar (upsteream and downstream of towns Kosovska Mitrovica and Kraljevo) was used. A forensic approach that relies on the fact that the composition of OM of recent sediments and oil varies due to geological age and maturity was applied. The content of bitumen, its group composition of saturated, aromatic and NSO compounds (nitrogen, sulphur, and oxygen compounds) and the distribution of n-alkanes in saturated fractions identified by gas chromatography?mass spectrometry (in almost all samples incorporated into the colloidal micelles formed by water and NSO compounds) could not answer the question whether OM in isolated extracts has native or anthropogenic origin. However, the presence of sterane and terpane, with the distribution of structural and stereochemical isomers characteristic of oil, as a form of most matture OM in sediments, unambiguously confirmed presence of oil type pollutants in anlayzed samples. Based on significant differences in the distributions of these polycyclic alkane (water?water, sediment?sediment and water?sediment), it was concluded that they have more than one source of pollution, and that the River Ibar is permanently exposed to this form of pollution.
