Authors: Mkrtchyan Narek , Hovhannisyan Armen , Vardanyan Kristina , Hovhannisyan Ani , Poghosyan Yuri
Published: January 2023

Background: Necrotizing fasciitis is a potentially life-threatening soft tissue infection, characterized by necrosis of the fascia, subcutaneous tissue, adipose tissue and can be fatal. NF is most common in immunocompromised hosts but may also occur in healthy patients without apparent antecedent injury. It is usually caused by either Group A streptococci or a polymicrobial, synergistic infection. The case that we present is unique in the Republic of Armenia, necrotizing fasciitis of the face in a child. Methods: We report the case of 3,5-year-old children who were treated for NF in our unit, inclusive, were reviewed retrospectively. Information recorded included medical history, clinical characteristics, diagnostic procedures, treatment methods, and the outcome. Results: The essence of the treatment was to prevent further development of necrosis, taking the child out of the state of general intoxication, in connection with, early surgical debridement, anti-intoxication, antibacterial therapy were carried out in several stages. In result, auto transplantation by full thickness skin autograft has been done, maintaining the aesthetic appearance of the wound. Conclusion: Because necrotizing fasciitis is a surgical emergency, the patient should be admitted immediately to a surgical intensive care unit, where the surgical staff is skilled in performing extensive debridement and reconstructive surgery. Despite the fact that it is rare in children, according to our data, it turned out that the reason for the penetration of microorganisms may be an incomplete injection. Clinicians should be aware of these infections, as early treatment can increase survival.

Published: January 2023

Background: Demonstrate the use of advanced three-dimensional (3D) computer technology, virtual surgical planning (VSP), three-dimensional modeling (3DM), and the treatment of complex craniofacial gunshot injuries. Methods: We present a clinical series reports of craniofacial gunshot Injuries using modern 3D computer technology. Based on the CT images of the skull, a CAD model of the skull (biomodel) and a restorative implant were digitally constructed. The biomodel was then physically constructed using 3D printing. Comparison of the dimensions of the implant and its corresponding biomodel revealed geometric correspondences. Manufactured prostheses used for the reconstruction of craniofacial defects formed after gunshot wounds. Results: There were no complications in the perioperative period, infection or exposure of the implant in the postoperative period. The results of the study showed that the imprinted individual cranial implants had a high dimensional accuracy, demonstrating clinically acceptable morphological similarity in terms of fit and contour continuity. Patients are satisfied with the aesthetic (improvement of the skull contour) and functional results of reconstruction. Conclusion: Individual implants for the reconstruction of craniofacial defects have shown effectiveness, which is associated with more accurate adaptation to the implantation site, reduced surgery time and better cosmetic effect.

The aim of the study was to establish the prevalence of strains of microorganisms resistant to antibacterial drugs isolated from subgingival dental plaques of periodontitis patients in the acute and remission stages.
Materials and methods of research։ For the study, were recruited 90 patients who were diagnosed with chronic periodontitis (K05.3) because of clinical examination and subsequent treatment. The research methods included culture (disco-diffusion method) and molecular biological technologies (PCR), which allows identifying resistant
strains of bacteria isolated from subgingival biofilm.
Results։ Our results confirm that periodontopathogenic anaerobic bacteria, in contrast to sanitary-significant microbes of the ESCAPE pathogen group, were not found to be resistant to doxycycline and ciprofloxacin in the phenotypic test (disk method). The data obtained regarding the detection of genetic markers of resistance to betalactam antibiotics are generally consistent with the results of studies obtained in Western Europe (Spain, Italy, Greece). At the same time, in relation to genetic markers of resistance to tetracyclines and fluoroquinolones, significantly lower levels of detection of resistant strains were established than in studies by foreign authors.
Perhaps this is due to the widespread use of these drugs in these years. On the other hand, closer results for tetracycline and fluoroquinolone resistance markers are from researchers in the People's Republic of China.
Conclusion։ The results obtained allow us to justify the return to treatment regimens using doxycycline, as one of the most adequate domestic tetracycline drugs.

Published: January 2023

Objective: The aim of this study was to assess the effectiveness of magnetic-laser therapy in complex treatment of neuropathy after dental implantation Materials and methods: The present study is based on the results of the analysis of clinical, instrumental and radiation studies of 27 patients, with post-traumatic neuropathy inferior alveolar nerve. Diagnosis of damage to the inferior alveolar nerve was based on the clinical manifestations of neuropathy (pain, paresthesia, loss of sensation, etc.). The study of the sensitivity of the skin of the lower lip and chin in the segment of the inferior alveolar nerve dysfunction and in the symmetrical segment performed using sensory tests. Conservative treatment included: Anti-infl ammatory, analgesics, antioxidants, B complex of the vitamins group. Magnetic-laser therapy included in a conservative treatment complex for patients. To conduct a comparative analysis of effectiveness of magnetic-laser therapy, two groups were formed: Patients fi rst group (n= 14), whose treatment complex included magnetic- laser therapy, Patients second group (n= 13), whose treatment complex did not include magnetic-laser therapy. Results: Most patients after implant placement complained of pain of varying degrees, a decrease or lack of sensitivity of the lower lip, chin skin, and the mucous membrane of the alveolar process of the lower jaw, paresthesia or hyperesthesia. Some patients did not have pain, however noted that sensitivity disorders have a negative effect ongeneral well-being and interfere with work. When comparing 2 group the best pain relief was patients first group. The average area of skins sensory impairment in patients was mean 9.4cm2. Patients first group complete recovered function of inferior alveolar nerve within mild 1 month, patients in the second group, whose treatment complex did not include magnetic laser therapy, fully recovered function of inferior alveolar nerve within mild 2 months. Conclusion: Thus, the inclusion of magnetic laser therapy in the post-implantation traumatic neuropathy treatment shows the biostimulation effect, complex allows to reduce the recovery time of functional disorders of the inferior alveolar nerve, to reduce the area of skins sensory impairment and increase the effectiveness of treatment.

Published: January 2023

Edentulism is a public health problem, impacting the quality of life of many people worldwide. Factors related to the mandibular ridge minimal support may hinder the common use of complete dentures. The use of overdentures supported by a minimum of one implant can be considered as reliable approach in this situation. Aim: To present a case report of a single implant-supported overdenture in the mandibular symphysis fot public health policies. Case report: A 65-year-old edentulous patient complaining of discomfort in a mandibular denture was referred to the Universidade Federal Fluminense. On clinical examination, residual mandibular ridge resorption and soft tissue trauma were observed, which was in line with the reported discomfort. A mandibular overdenture retained by a single implant in the symphysis region was planned. A hex-type 4.0 mm in diameter and 11.0 mm in length implant was placed and a new set of complete dentures were made till the date of complete osseointegration. After four months, a second surgery exposed the implant platform to fit a ball attachment with a 32 N.cm torque. The denture was relieved on its tissue surface for the placement of a metal attachment matrix with a rubber O-ring inside, using a fast-curing resin, and the patient was locked into maximum intercuspidation during the acrylic polymerization process. Excessive resin was removed and the region was polished for daily use after the process. The patient reported an improvement in chewing condition and restorative esthetics. Conclusions: A minimum requirements protocol has achieved relevant results and may be feasible in public health policies. Maintenance visits are recommended to maintain retention quality and to decrease the risk of failures.

Published: January 2023

Identifying factors that influence pregnancy success is important in order to optimize beef cowcalfherd management. A logistic regression model was used to evaluate the effect of relevant factors(categories were: herd size, body condition score, breeding season length, and timing of start of breedingseason) on the probability of pregnancy status at 2 time-points (day 21 and end of the breeding season).Data were collected by convenience sampling from herds (n = 241) consisting of 8,217 head located inthe Midwest and Great Plains regions of the US from 2012 to 2017. Herds with < 50 head had reducedprobability of pregnancy (51 and 78%) compared to medium-sized (50 - 99 head) herds (63 and 84%).Cows in thin body condition (score ≤ 4 out of 9) at pregnancy diagnosis had reduced probability ofbecoming pregnant (44 and 64%) compared to cows in moderate body condition ([score 5 - 6 out of 9] 62and 86%) and fleshy condition ([score ≥ 7 out of 9] 66 and 91%). Herds with a short (< 63 days) ormedium (63 - 84 days) breeding season had increased probability of pregnancy (65 and 58%) for the first21-day interval compared to herds with a long (> 84 days) breeding season (49%). Herds that started thebreeding season in the fall (September 30 - December 31) had higher probability of pregnancy at the endof the breeding season (88%) compared to spring (April 1 - June 30) start dates (82%). Managementfactors (herd size, body condition score, breeding season length, and timing of start of breeding season)had substantial impacts on the probability of pregnancy.
Distribution Of Zakat In The Form Of Productive Assets: Certain Theoretical, Practical and Accounting Implications
Authors: Ab. Rashid Hafiz Majdi , Sulaiman Maliah
Published: January 2023

Recent innovations of zakat disbursement in Malaysia have significant implications on accounting. Traditionally, zakat has been distributed in the form of cash disbursed directly to zakat beneficiaries (asnaf). This is generally referred to as consumptive distribution. With an increase in the amount of zakat collected, zakat agencies have developed various schemes to distribute zakat in the form of productive assets. Sometimes referred to as productive distribution. Such distribution helps zakat beneficiaries in generating their own income in the long run, thus contributing to the self- sustenance of beneficiaries which may eventually lead to the asnafs “coming out” poverty. Consistent with this view, State Islamic Religious Councils (SIRCs) in Malaysia have also distributed zakat in the form of productive assets. Given this, it is interesting to examine the practical and theoretical implications on the accounting of such distributions. Data was collected from 4 SIRCs to examine the extent zakat is being distributed in the form of productive assets and the accounting treatment of such distribution. Suggestions of how productive zakat distribution should be accounted for have also been proposed. Keywords: Zakat, Zakat Distribution, Productive Assets, Accounting, Malaysia
How Do Interest Rate Changes Affect Islamic Banks? Empirical Evidence on Islamic Banks in Malaysia
Authors: Ali Muhammad Hafiz , Abdul Rahim Norhuda , Dato Hj. Yahya Mohamed Hisham
Published: January 2023

Purpose: Little empirical evidence has shown that financial systems with dual-banking systems are relatively more resilient against many financial crises, especially to changes in interest rate levels. In the same vein, this study investigates the impact of interest rates on Malaysian Islamic banks by analysing the relationship between changes in interest rates on Islamic banks’ deposits and financing. Design: The objective is investigated using the ARDL bounds test with 144 observations of monthly data from 2007 to 2018. The unit root tests of Augmented Dickey and Fuller (ADF) and the Phillips-Peron (PP) were conducted, followed by the diagnostic tests of serial correlation and heteroscedasticity, and Cumulative Sum of Recursive Residuals or CUSUM and CUSUM Square stability test to ensure robustness of the results. The robustness of the findings is confirmed with diagnostic tests. Findings: The study finds that interest rates have a relationship with both deposits and financing of Malaysian Islamic banks in the long run. This means that in the long run, when interest rates increases, both deposits and financing of an Islamic bank are still increasing. Furthermore, the religious factor is found to play a role in Malaysian’s banking decisions. Practical Implication: Firstly, the study highlights that the dual banking system is more resilient than the single banking system as the Islamic banking system is not affected by the conventional interbank rates. However, it also provides evidence that Islamic banks are not entirely independent from the effect of conventional interest rates. Therefore, the Islamic banks need to be attentive to interest rates risk in their risk management, as it could influence the value of their assets and obligations. It also highlights the necessary timing for market to revert back for both institutions’ and investors’ discretion. Secondly, due to all reasons above, the Bank Negara Malaysia needs to be cautious in designing monetary policies as such both government and public sectors can strategize the financing of the country. Originality and Value: Providing the most recent sets of data, this study is invaluable to the government, public sector, financial institutions, investors, and fellow academicians. It also adds value to Islamic Bank literature. Keywords: Interest Rates; Islamic Banks; Dual-Banking System; ARDL Bound Test, Monetary Policy, Malaysia

Published: January 2023

Purpose - This article is a bibliometric study of innovation research and internal collaboration in organizations at three levels (i.e., individual, work team, and organization).

Design/methodology/approach - This research was conducted using Publish or Perish software and VOS Viewer to analyze 6,356 academic articles from 2000 to 2022 in four aspects: temporal distribution of published papers, the scientific community (country/region/authors cited), intellectual structure (journals) cited/references cited), and research centers.

Findings and Discussion – The results show that the number and growth rate of publications at the organizational level is much higher than the other two levels (individual and teamwork). This is based on innovation which is often related to collaboration within the organization. The publications with top three countries for the most publications are the United States, China, and the United Kingdom. The top five most cited authors were identified and listed from the individual, work team, and organizational levels

Originality - The author combines innovation and collaboration as an interesting subject because not many have made a review of this material. These findings provide a snapshot and comparison of innovation research in management at three levels namely, individual, work team, and organizational levels, which are useful for researchers and students to understand and explore innovative behavior in organizations from a multilevel perspective.

Authors: Chibás Ortiz Felipe , Tejedor Calvo Santiago , Milani Zottis Karin , Dias Ana Paula
Published: January 2023

El modelo de Ciudades MIL fue lanzado por la UNESCO en 2018 como una alternativa a las demandas de la sociedad en la era de la información, enfocándose en la promoción de la Alfabetización Mediática e Informacional (AMI) o Media and Information Literacy (MIL). Este concepto abarca acciones en espacios físicos y digitales, con la participación de actores tradicionales de la educación formal, incluyendo universidades públicas y privadas, medios de comunicación, artistas y otros actores de la sociedad civil. Partiendo de esta perspectiva, este artículo presenta el modelo de Ciudades Universitarias MIL como una propuesta de transformación del entorno universitario, con el fin de formar a sus miembros y difundir conocimientos a la luz de la alfabetización mediática e informacional, cada vez más necesaria en el contexto actual. Así, el presente estudio identifica barreras y oportunidades para la adopción del citado marco, teniendo como objeto de estudio algunas facultades de los Campus de la Universidad de São Paulo (USP) en Brasil y de la Universidad Autónoma de Barcelona (UAB) de España, pioneras ambas en el diseño e implementación de espacios universitarios que apuestan por la AMI. La metodología adoptada incluye el uso de métodos inductivos y estudio de casos, inspirados en la metodología de las 20 Barreras Culturales a la Comunicación (BCC). Los resultados identifican ocho BCC en la USP y doce BCC en la UAB; e inciden en la importancia de potenciar la aplicación del modelo en otros escenarios sociales.
"Desinformación y relaciones públicas. Aproximación a los términos Black PR y Dark PR"
Authors: Fernández Leticia Rodríguez
Published: January 2023

La desinformación ha alcanzado en los últimos años un alto grado de profesionalización. Las campañas de Dark PR o Black PR, son un nivel avanzado de las campañas negativas y en ellas se ficciona la prescripción y la influencia, normalmente con ánimo de desprestigiar al adversario político o el competidor.

Se propone en este trabajo una revisión sistemática sobre los resultados de búsqueda de los términos Black PR y Dark PR en Google y Google Scholar. Se pretende identificar en primer lugar las definiciones y orígenes de ambos conceptos, conocer las estrategias utilizadas en estos trabajos así como los casos de estudio que sirven para ejemplificar los mismos. Se observa que ambos términos son aún muy novedosos y son más empleados por medios de comunicación que por la literatura académica aunque presentan definiciones y  usos comunes. Se recoge una tendencia creciente de prácticas de influencia negativa con numerosos ejemplos de astroturfing, campañas de desinformación y censura corporativa en distintos países. Esta circunstancia resulta problemática para el sector de las relaciones públicas pues difiere de los principios éticos de la profesión y obliga a quienes la ejercen a participar en prácticas poco honestas.
Les barons perchés : essai sur l’émergence des mélanges dans la littérature juridique québécoise
Authors: Gourde-Bouchard Noémie
Published: January 2023

Depuis les années 1960, les mélanges – ces recueils d’études offertes par des chercheurs à des collègues à l’occasion d’un anniversaire ou d’un départ à retraite – ont pris racine dans la littérature juridique québécoise, avant de se multiplier au cours des années 1990 et 2000. L’étude des premiers mélanges juridiques québécois permet de revisiter l’histoire de la doctrine à un moment crucial, soit la professionnalisation des professeurs de droit et l’émergence d’un véritable « corps » de juristes universitaires. Bien plus que de simples collections d’articles, les ouvrages appartenant à ce genre littéraire particulier se caractérisent par des éléments paratextuels précis, et témoignent des représentations que les juristes universitaires se font d’eux-mêmes ainsi que des relations qu’ils entretiennent entre eux. Les mélanges apparaissent ainsi comme des lieux d’expression et de revendication identitaire pour les professeurs de droit québécois; ils leur permettent de se raconter et d’asseoir davantage leur autorité à la fois dans le monde universitaire et à l’intérieur de la communauté juridique. Ces recueils d’articles, puisqu’ils sont le plus souvent agrémentés de descriptions des qualités des dédicataires, brossent un portrait du juriste universitaire idéal. Ils représentent ces personnages célébrés comme des êtres plus grands que nature, faisant la gloire de leur faculté de droit, voire de l’ensemble du droit québécois ou canadien.

Ce type d’approche nous semble transposable à n’importe quelle oeuvre doctrinale de manière générale.
Narrativas sobre Ciência e Religião e seu impacto na formação em Psicologia
Authors: Egg-Serra Adriana Patrícia , Furtado Holanda Adriano
Published: January 2023

Mesmo após décadas de pesquisas que desmistificam a narrativa de um conflito irremediável entre Ciência e Religião, tal discurso aparenta ter vida própria e segue se perpetuando. O objetivo deste trabalho foi investigar os efeitos dessa narrativa sobre a percepção de estudantes de Psicologia acerca das relações entre as duas esferas e descrever as repercussões de seu contato com a produção científica recente na área. Foram identificados sete elementos constituintes de seus relatos: reflexões e questionamentos acerca do lugar e papel da Ciência e/ou Psicologia em sua relação com a espiritualidade/religiosidade; reconhecimento de um preconceito da Ciência e/ou Psicologia para com a espiritualidade/religiosidade e alienação do tema; reconhecimento da produção científica em espiritualidade/religiosidade, sua importância e necessidade de diálogo com a Psicologia; desconstrução dos mitos sobre um conflito primordial entre Ciência e Religião; reconhecimento da presença do paradigma de conflito entre ambas; reconhecimento da presença, importância e influência da espiritualidade/religiosidade na população; e apontamentos divergentes. Esperamos que os resultados apresentados possam abrir caminhos para a construção de uma narrativa mais coerente com a realidade em que vivemos.

Authors: Zajzon Barna , Dahmen David , Morrison Abigail , Duarte Renato
Published: January 2023

Information from the sensory periphery is conveyed to the cortex via structured projection pathways that spatially segregate stimulus features, providing a robust and efficient encoding strategy. Beyond sensory encoding, this prominent anatomical feature extends throughout the neocortex. However, the extent to which it influences cortical processing is unclear. In this study, we combine cortical circuit modeling with network theory to demonstrate that the sharpness of topographic projections acts as a bifurcation parameter, controlling the macroscopic dynamics and representational precision across a modular network. By shifting the balance of excitation and inhibition, topographic modularity gradually increases task performance and improves the signal-to-noise ratio across the system. We demonstrate that in biologically constrained networks, such a denoising behavior is contingent on recurrent inhibition. We show that this is a robust and generic structural feature that enables a broad range of behaviorally relevant operating regimes, and provide an in-depth theoretical analysis unraveling the dynamical principles underlying the mechanism.

Meiotic chromosome segregation relies on synapsis and crossover (CO) recombination between homologous chromosomes. These processes require multiple steps that are coordinated by the meiotic cell cycle and monitored by surveillance mechanisms. In diverse species, failures in chromosome synapsis can trigger a cell cycle delay and/or lead to apoptosis. How this key step in ‘homolog engagement’ is sensed and transduced by meiotic cells is unknown. Here we report that in C. elegans, recruitment of the Polo-like kinase PLK-2 to the synaptonemal complex triggers phosphorylation and inactivation of CHK-2, an early meiotic kinase required for pairing, synapsis, and double-strand break (DSB) induction. Inactivation of CHK-2 terminates DSB formation and enables CO designation and cell cycle progression. These findings illuminate how meiotic cells ensure CO formation and accurate chromosome segregation.
Broadband Printed Tapered Slot Antenna Fed by CPW Fulfilled with Planar Artificial Magnetic Conductor for X-Band Operation
Authors: Malekpoor H.
Published: January 2023

A low-profile printed slot antenna (PSA) backed by broadband planar artificial magnetic conductor (AMC) is introduced in this study. Firstly, a suggested PSA with the radiating tapered slots excited by coplanar-waveguide (CPW) is used to expand the bandwidth in the measured range of 9-11 GHz (S11≤ -10 dB). Then, the suggested planar AMC surface as the ground plane of the antenna is inserted into the PSA to gain improved radiation efficiency. The realized result from the PSA with the 9×9 planar AMC array exhibits -10 dB measured impedance bandwidth from 6.63 to 13.73 GHz (70%). The suggested PSA with AMC compared to the PSA without AMC exhibits a size reduction of 60%, enhanced bandwidth of 50%, and excellent impedance matching with a minimum value of almost -40 dB. The novel AMC unit cell is realized to operate at 10.14 GHz with an AMC bandwidth of 8-12.35 GHz (43.1%) for X-band operation. Besides, by loading a periodic AMC unit cells into PSA, a high gain of more than 11 dBi with uni-directional radiation patterns is achieved.

Background

The accurate identification of SARS-CoV-2 (SC2) variants and estimation of their abundance in mixed population samples (e.g., air or wastewater) is imperative for successful surveillance of community level trends. Assessing the performance of SC2 variant composition estimators (VCEs) should improve our confidence in public health decision making. Here, we introduce a linear regression based VCE and compare its performance to four other VCEs: two re-purposed DNA sequence read classifiers (Kallisto and Kraken2), a maximum-likelihood based method (Lineage deComposition for Sars-Cov-2 pooled samples (LCS)), and a regression based method (Freyja).

Methods

We simulated DNA sequence datasets of known variant composition from both Illumina and Oxford Nanopore Technologies (ONT) platforms and assessed the performance of each VCE. We also evaluated VCEs performance using publicly available empirical wastewater samples collected for SC2 surveillance efforts. Bioinformatic analyses were performed with a custom NextFlow workflow (C-WAP, CFSAN Wastewater Analysis Pipeline). Relative root mean squared error (RRMSE) was used as a measure of performance with respect to the known abundance and concordance correlation coefficient (CCC) was used to measure agreement between pairs of estimators.

Results

Based on our results from simulated data, Kallisto was the most accurate estimator as it had the lowest RRMSE, followed by Freyja. Kallisto and Freyja had the most similar predictions, reflected by the highest CCC metrics. We also found that accuracy was platform and amplicon panel dependent. For example, the accuracy of Freyja was significantly higher with Illumina data compared to ONT data; performance of Kallisto was best with ARTICv4. However, when analyzing empirical data there was poor agreement among methods and variations in the number of variants detected (e.g., Freyja ARTICv4 had a mean of 2.2 variants while Kallisto ARTICv4 had a mean of 10.1 variants).

Conclusion

This work provides an understanding of the differences in performance of a number of VCEs and how accurate they are in capturing the relative abundance of SC2 variants within a mixed sample (e.g., wastewater). Such information should help officials gauge the confidence they can have in such data for informing public health decisions.

La defoliación arbórea es uno de los mejores indicadores para evaluar el estado fitosanitario de los bosques. Existen varias redes en España que toman esta información: Red Europea de Seguimiento de Daños en Bosques de ICP-Forests, Redes Autonómicas de Seguimiento de Daños, y Red de Seguimiento y Evaluación de Parques Nacionales. El objetivo de este estudio es el análisis de la dinámica de la defoliación en regiones bioclimáticas, tipos de masas y principales especies de coníferas (Abies alba, Pinus uncinata, Pinus sylvestris, Pinus nigra, Pinus halepensis, Pinus pinaster, Pinus pinea) y frondosas (Castanea sativa, Fagus sylvatica, Quercus pyrenaica, Quercus robur, Quercus ilex, Quercus suber, Quercus faginea y Olea europaea) de la España peninsular y Baleares. Se armonizó la información de las diferentes redes de daños en una red integrada compuesta por un total de 2858 parcelas con datos entre 1986 y 2015. Los resultados muestran un incremento en la defoliación general media (12.3% en 1986 a un 25.2% en 2015). En coníferas, Pinus uncinata (región alpina), Pinus pinaster (región atlántica) y Pinus halepensis (región mediterránea), mostraron los valores más altos de defoliación en 2015. En frondosas, los valores más elevados se encontraron en Quercus pyrenaica, Quercus faginea, Quercus robur y Castanea sativa, tanto en la región mediterránea como en la atlántica. Se constata la idoneidad de la armonización e integración de las diferentes redes de daños para hacer un seguimiento a largo plazo del estado sanitario de los bosques. Estos resultados ponen en relieve la importancia de contar con una red actualizada e integrada de la información de daños en los bosques como herramienta para una gestión que garantice su sostenibilidad a largo plazo.

Published: January 2023

La agricultura convencional implica la simplificación de la estructura del medioambiente con una considerable disminución de la diversidad natural. Apoyados en la práctica de los policultivos (maíz- calabaza, maíz-ajonjolí, maíz-frijol, maíz-girasol), se desarrollaron un grupo de experimentos encaminados a favorecer la diversidad insectil. La investigación se realizó en los años 2017, 2018 y 2019, en el municipio de Fomento, Provincia Sancti Spíritus, Cuba, perteneciente a la Empresa Agropecuaria Ramón Ponciano. Realizado sobre un diseño de bloques al azar, tuvo como objetivos identificar las especies de insectos asociados al cultivo del maíz, caracterizar los enemigos naturales presentes en el maíz en los sistemas de policultivos, así como determinar los índices ecológicos de riqueza, equidad y dominancia. Después de realizada la investigación se pudo identificar 24 especies de insectos: 9 perjudiciales y 15 beneficiosos. Las especies de biorreguladores más representativos fueron como depredadores Mixogaster sp y Scymnus sp y como parásitos L. achyppivora y A. peliventri. El fitófago S. frugiperda fue el de mayor importancia durante todo el ciclo del cultivo. Los policultivos fueron, desde el punto de vista de la biodiversidad los que muestran mayor diversidad biológica dado por una mayor riqueza, diversidad y equidad de insectos que el monocultivo, destacándose M+A.
