Authors: Kaur Rajbir , Kaur Manpreet , Kaur Amanpreet , Singh Harjinder
Published: August 2022

In view of increasing threat of Covid-19 and due to the lack of any effective medicines, we have performed in silico studies of various SARS-CoV-2 proteins such as 6LU7, 6YWL, 2GTB, 6W02, 6W63 with active phytochemicals of some common medicinal plants such as aloevera, asafoetida, fennel, clove, cardamom, tamarind, coriander, camomile, and bryophyllum. Molecular docking was perfomed using UCSF Chimera 1.15 and docking was analysed by using Biovia Discovery Studio 2021. The reults shows that phytochemicals qurercetin, ferulic acid, salicylic acid, and eugenol can act as potential inhibitors of SARS-CoV-2.
Interfacial Microstructure of Neutral and Charged Polymer Brushes: A Density Functional Theory Study
Authors: Jiang Jian , Qing Leying
Published: August 2022

Polymer density functional theory (PDFT) is a computationally efficient and popular statistical mechanics theory of complex fluids for capturing the interfacial microstructure of grafted polymer brushes (PBs). Undoubtedly, the intramolecular and intermolecular interactions in PDFT (e.g., excluded volume interactions and electrostatic interactions) are affected by the grafting behaviors. However, how to treat these interactions coupled with the physical constraints of end-grafted PBs remains unclear in the literature. Even worse, there are remarkable differences in the density profiles of PBs between the predictions from PDFT and simulations. Herein, we propose a PDFT for studying neutral and charged grafted PBs, and provide its rigorous derivation and numerical details. This PDFT is successfully validated, where the density distributions of neutral and weakly charged PBs predicted by the PDFT are in excellent agreement with the results from Monte Carlo (MC) and molecular dynamics (MD) simulations. This work provides a powerful and accurate theoretical method to reveal the interfacial microstructure of grafted PBs.

Published: August 2022

Markers of the identity of a group can be seen from the language and culture. A group that lives in an area usually names its territory using their language and cultural characteristics of the place. However, heterogeneity in Indonesia society makes the naming of regions experience changes and shifts over time. This can be seen from the naming of the administrative area in Sanggau Regency, West Kalimantan Province. As a border area between Indonesia and Malaysia, the naming of administrative areas becomes necessary and important to be preserved as an identity marker. In this regard, this study explores the naming of administrative areas in Sanggau Regency. This study aims to describe the pattern of naming administrative areas as language documentation, explore identity markers in naming administrative areas, and preserve language and cultural characteristics in naming administrative areas. The research method is based on toponymy research with descriptive qualitative analysis. Data collection techniques using questionnaires and interviews. The research data includes the naming of sub-village, village, and districts in Sanggau Regency, West Kalimantan Province. The research respondents were 50 people who were selected proportionally based on their language and ethnicity. The results of this study are the naming of administrative areas in Sanggau Regency has several semantic categories, such as fruit, rivers, trees or plants, places, people, ethnics, objects, and animals. In terms of language, the naming of the administrative area in Sanggau Regency comes from Malay, Dayak, Javanese, and Indonesian. This result was obtained from local knowledge, although not all administrative area names were explored. The number of administrative areas that have not been explored makes language documentation efforts need to be followed up by the local government.

LA INFOGRAFÍA COMO HERRAMIENTA DE APRENDIZAJE Y COMUNICACIÓN EN TIEMPOS DE PANDEMIA
Authors: Morelli Rubén
Published: August 2022

Cuando se analizan programas de las materias de formación básica del área Sistemas de Representación de primer año de cualquier facultad de Ingeniería, se observa que los contenidos se estructuran en todo lo referido al Dibujo Técnico y sus normas, al Sistema Monge y la Geometría Descriptiva, y por supuesto al diseño con programas CAD. Es improbable encontrar programas de estas materias que incluyan otros contenidos y herramientas de representación gráfica que hoy se deberían considerar: son las que tienen que ver con la comunicación y la expresión gráfica. La Infografía es una forma de representación gráfica. En forma genérica puede decirse que la infografía es un producto de diseño gráfico que combina imágenes ilustrativas con breves textos. Hacen que la comunicación gráfica sea simple y ágil, didáctica y descriptiva. Es un excelente recurso de comunicación gráfica de investigaciones, estudios, ideas y proyectos. Estudiantes y profesionales de ingeniería deberían tener competencias de diseño infográfico. Las herramientas digitales para diseñar infografías van desde los clásicos programas CAD a programas de diseño gráfico y edición de imágenes, y los que hacen presentaciones con diapositivas. Dentro de estos programas, los hay libres y gratuitos que son de gran calidad: Inkscape, Gimp, además de Draw e Impress de la suite LibreOffice entre los más destacados. Desde marzo del año 2020 la enseñanza universitaria fue afectada por las medidas dictadas de aislamiento social preventivo y obligatorio contra esta terrible pandemia COVID-19, pasando de las actividades presenciales a la modalidad de dictado remoto o virtual. Dicha modalidad se extendió durante todo el año lectivo 2020 y lo que va del año 2021. Las cátedras debieron adaptar sus estrategias de enseñanza-aprendizaje y evaluación a esta nueva normalidad, que parecía en un principio que sería sólo por unos meses, y ya transita por el segundo año. Justamente ante esta realidad, dentro de la materia Representación Gráfica de primer año de Ingeniería de esta universidad pública de la República Argentina, se incorporó la infografía como herramienta de aprendizaje y comunicación en reemplazo de otras de índole presencial. Sin variar el enfoque pedagógico de aprendizaje centrado en quienes estudian, se incluyó el uso de la infografía en el Trabajo Práctico Integrador final de la materia, que es una actividad en equipo. Haciendo eje en ella, se hicieron las presentaciones finales de la materia por videoconferencia por parte de los equipos de estudiantes. En este trabajo se muestran ejemplos de estos trabajos prácticos integradores finales de la materia y se demuestra cómo con el uso de estas herramientas en la virtualidad, se contribuye a seguir logrando los resultados de aprendizaje esperados.
LA INDUSTRIA 4.0 Y LAS COMPETENCIAS DE FORMACIÓN EN LOS PROGRAMAS DE INGENIERÍA: UNA EVALUACIÓN SOBRE LA DEMANDA DE LAS CREDENCIALES ALTERNATIVAS Y LAS MICROTITULACIONES VS LA FORMACIÓN DE UN PROFESIONAL UNIVERSITARIO DE INGENIERÍA Y SU IMPACTO EN LA CALI

Published: August 2022

Los retos que enfrenta hoy día la Universidad, producto de la globalización y los vertiginosos cambios en los métodos de producción, suministro de productos y servicios que han dado origen a la cuarta revolución industrial (también conocida como Industria 4.0); demandan profesionales cada vez más calificados, con habilidades no solo técnicas, sino también interdisciplinarias y sociales ambas en niveles profesionales. En la línea de lo anterior, una mayor incertidumbre se ha podido percibir sobre el sitio de desempeño del profesional, sus formas de aprendizaje, el crecimiento de las expectativas del empresario y las necesidades de la sociedad, que en muchos casos son diferentes a las percibidas cuando se empieza a ofertar un programa universitario. Este trabajo pretende dar al lector un contexto sobre el proceso de cambio al cual se deben acoplarlas universidades frente al creciente mercado de las credenciales alternativas y las microtitulaciones; y la manera como, en el contexto de sus perfiles de formación, los programas de ingeniería pueden incorporarlas y hacer uso de la evaluación de la enseñanza en el aula como un mecanismo para medir la formación de las competencias requeridas por la sociedad y su impacto en el desempeño del profesional, según el tiempo de formación recibido. Lo anterior soportado en algunas estrategias implementadas en el contexto europeo para ayudar a cerrar la brecha entre la capacitación y el mundo laboral, mejorar las capacidades de los recursos humanos y proporcionar una contribución sustancial a los estudiantes en relación con las habilidades de gestión de carrera y facilitar una transición más rápida hacia un mercado laboral en constante evolución. Como resultado, el avance del entorno económico y social no necesariamente riñe con el sistema de educación superior, sino que le exige una más rápida de adaptación al contexto y el desarrollo de nuevos mecanismos que le permitan continuar con su labor de formar, no para la vida de hace unos cuantos años, sino para un futuro cambiante, abierto y transdisciplinar, apoyado en la tecnología que se convierte en un aliado estratégico para esta transición de la universidad.

Este es un punto de partida para determinar las estrategias a aplicar en el aula para el desarrollo de estas competencias en los estudiantes que ingresan a la educación superior.
Telescoping bimodal latent Dirichlet allocation to identify expression QTLs across tissues
Authors: Gewirtz Ariel DH , Townes F William , Engelhardt Barbara E
Published: August 2022

Expression quantitative trait loci (eQTLs), or single-nucleotide polymorphisms that affect average gene expression levels, provide important insights into context-specific gene regulation. Classic eQTL analyses use one-to-one association tests, which test gene–variant pairs individually and ignore correlations induced by gene regulatory networks and linkage disequilibrium. Probabilistic topic models, such as latent Dirichlet allocation, estimate latent topics for a collection of count observations. Prior multimodal frameworks that bridge genotype and expression data assume matched sample numbers between modalities. However, many data sets have a nested structure where one individual has several associated gene expression samples and a single germline genotype vector. Here, we build a telescoping bimodal latent Dirichlet allocation (TBLDA) framework to learn shared topics across gene expression and genotype data that allows multiple RNA sequencing samples to correspond to a single individual’s genotype. By using raw count data, our model avoids possible adulteration via normalization procedures. Ancestral structure is captured in a genotype-specific latent space, effectively removing it from shared components. Using GTEx v8 expression data across 10 tissues and genotype data, we show that the estimated topics capture meaningful and robust biological signal in both modalities and identify associations within and across tissue types. We identify 4,645 cis-eQTLs and 995 trans-eQTLs by conducting eQTL mapping between the most informative features in each topic. Our TBLDA model is able to identify associations using raw sequencing count data when the samples in two separate data modalities are matched one-to-many, as is often the case in biological data.

Published: August 2022

The increase in domestic violence in Nigeria has become overwhelming. However, the death of Osinachi Nwachukwu (a popular gospel artist singer), which has been linked to domestic violence, prompted the discussion of domestic violence to be more pronounced. Although several laws and institutional bodies are set up to curtail the incidence of domestic violence, there seems to be an increase in the monster in Nigeria. In this regard, this study adopts a hybrid method of research to ascertain the causes of the current increase in domestic violence in Nigeria and proposes judicial separation as a panacea. In this regard, various literature and laws were analysed concerning the suitability of judicial separation as a panacea in curtailing domestic violence. Furthermore 350 questionnaire was distributed to respondents to ascertain the causes of the current increase in domestic violence and possible solution. The study, therefore, found that alcohol abuse, psychological disorder, economic hardship, and traditional belief are some of the causes of the current increase in domestic violence in Nigeria. The study also found that judicial separation could be a viable legal tool to curtail domestic violence, given that it preserves the status quo of the marriage. Therefore, the study concludes and recommends that victims of domestic violence should open up and embrace the concept of judicial separation.

Despites the excellent merits of lead based perovskite optoelectronic devices; their unstable nature and toxicity still present a bottleneck for practical applications. Double perovskite has emerged as a candidate for optoelectronics and photovoltaic application because of its nontoxic behaviour and stability in air. We have presented ab-initio study of Cs2NaBiX6(X=Cl, Br, I) lead free halide double perovskites. The calculation is carried out using the FP-LAPW method in the DFT framework within PBE potential using the WIEN2k code. The structural, electronic and optical properties of Cs2NaBiI6, Cs2NaBiBr6 and Cs2NaBiCl6 have been analysed. We have obtained the band gap of 2.0, 2.6 and 3.7 for Cs2NaBiI6, Cs2NaBiBr6 and Cs2NaBiCl6 respectively. Throughout the study, we have shown that the variation in the structure of double perovskite within Cs2NaBiX6(X=Cl, Br, I) that leads to the variation in band gap, density of states and in optical properties such as extinction coefficient, absorption spectra, optical reflectivity, dielectric coefficient, refractive index that shows the variety of this material for optoelectronic devices and other purposes.

Published: August 2022

Introduction. The skin biopsies of 30 patients with androgenetic alopecia before and after treatment with platelet-rich plasma in combination with 2 % minoxidil were examined by immunohistochemistry. Goal. The study looked at immunohistochemical changes in the scalp biopsies of patients with stage I-II androgenetic alopecia according to the Ludwig scale and to identify possible changes after injection of platelet-rich plasma in combination with topical 2 % minoxidil lotion. Materials and methods. Skin biopsies of 30 patients with androgenetic alopecia were examined using an immunohistochemical study before and after treatment, which lasted 3 months and included 3 sessions of PRP (once per month) and topical application of minoxidil 2 % lotion twice a day. Results. It was found that androgenetic alorecia is accompanied by inflammatory perifollicular infiltration by T-lymphocytes CD3 +, CD4 + and CD8 +, macrophages (CD68 +); imbalance of germ polypeptides VEGF, TGF-β1, EGFR; accumulation of oxidative stress enzymes eNOS and iNOS; accumulation of pathological fraction of collagen IV. Injections of platelet-rich plasma in combination with topical administration of 2 % minoxidil as a treatment for androgenetic alopecia lead to normalization of immunohistochemical parameters of the skin, which indicates the possibility of using this combination for long-term therapeutic effect. Conclusions. This study complemented the understanding of the pathogenesis of AGA and serves as a basis for improving treatment regimens for this pathology. However, additional studies are needed to further study the pathomorphology of androgenetic alopecia and to standardize the technique of using platelet-rich plasma in patients with this disease.
Epidemiology of knee osteoarthritis

Published: August 2022

Introduction. Osteoarthritis of the knee joint is a progressive incurable disease, which in the case of a severe course at a late stage leads to total joint replacement. Recently, experts have focused their attention to the prevention and treatment of early osteoarthritis, so it is important to understand the prevalence, frequency, and modified risk factors for knee OA. The aim is to investigate the patterns of morbidity and prevalence of osteoarthritis of the knee joint on the basis of scientific analysis of relevant modern literature. Materials and methods. Research material – scientific articles in the MEDLINE database for the period 2016–2020, reflecting the epidemiological indicators of osteoarthritis of the knee joint, and additional search for articles from bibliographic lists of selected literature sources. Research methods – a systematic review of relevant sources of literature. Results. Osteoarthritis of the knee joint is one of the most common diseases of the musculoskeletal system. The frequency of osteoarthritis steadily increases with age, overweight. The progressive nature of the disease, the presence of persistent pain lead to limited functionality and reduced efficiency; such patients in some cases require surgical treatment aimed at replacing the compromised joint, which requires significant economic costs, medical rehabilitation and social readaptation of patients and is a heavy burden for both the patient and society as a whole. The lack of correlation between clinical symptoms and radiological signs of osteoarthritis of the knee joint leads to low availability of orthopedic care: more than 30 % of patients with a first diagnosis have a pronounced stage of the disease, and in some cases the pathology is diagnosed only in connection with complications; the diagnosis of osteoarthritis due to the high percentage of painless development of the disease (40 %) is often established in the terminal stages. All this indicates the need for further research on various factors influencing the frequency, prevalence, economic and social burden of osteoarthritis of the knee. Conclusions. Osteoarthritis of the knee joint is characterized by high incidence, which increases with age, progressive course, limited functional capabilities. Treatment of such patients requires significant economic costs of society. A significant increase in the prevalence of osteoarthritis of the knee is associated with increased life expectancy, obesity and some other factors that require further research.

Published: August 2022

The medical community is gaining increased attention to streamlining a clear mechanism for reporting critical test results in the clinic. DSTU ISO 15189: 2015 requires laboratories to report critical test results to clinitians within a specified period of time. Moreover, they should have a clearly established procedure in place. In order to standardize processes and avoid misunderstandings between stakeholders, international organizations (RCPA, AACB, CLSI) have developed terminology, communication algorithm and requirements for data documentation. In order to harmonize this part, a lot of surveys have been conducted as to which analytes should be included in the notification sheet and, in particular, the limits of their values for hematological, hemostasiological and biochemical studies. According to ICSH recommendations, critical risk results include hemoglobin, leukocytes, neutrophils, platelets, activated partial thromboplastin time (aPTT), prothrombin time (PT) / international normalization ratio (INR) and fibrinogen. The laboratories include different biochemical tests in the alert list. The most common analytes are glucose, potassium, sodium and calcium. It should be noted that this alert list is only recommended for clinical laboratories, such as the number of indicators and alert threshold of analytes should be agreed with the clinicians of a particular medical institution, taking into account their experience and local patient population. The developed recommendations will allow to react as quickly as possible to situations that may threaten patient’s life, provide qualified medical care in a timely manner and adjust work processes in accordance with the requirements of international standards.
"Nothing to be ashamed of in a good nail": New Zealand architecture in the 1910s
Authors: McCarthy Christine
Published: August 2022

Gerald Jones' assertion, on the need for honesty and nails, characterises the inherent tension of a country striving for independence and identity while dominated by influences from elsewhere. The lineage of a pioneering number eight wire mentality could easily slide into the rhetoric of honesty and authenticity that underpinned the intellectualism fast footing modernism, but change and contradiction can always be amplified in any history, particularly when one senses cadences of that decade in sync with the current one, 100 years later.
How to Characterise a 1914 Architect using Big Data
Authors: Humphris Adrian , Mew Geoff
Published: August 2022

"Big data" analytics is a means that can be used for examining large and varied data sets to uncover hidden patterns, unknown correlations, market trends, customer preferences and other potentially useful information. The analysis of large data sets has become possible, and much more relevant, as such data has come increasingly accessible, and computing technology has advanced considerably. In the study reported here we have taken the first steps in using this technique to investigate whether big data can tell us more about the characteristics of New Zealand architects and their work. Part of the research for our book Raupo to Deco resulted in a large data set of newspaper tenders. Tender notices enabled us to identify architects, the time frames they worked, the types and numbers of buildings they designed, and the connections and relationships between individuals and practices. In addition, we used genealogy techniques to work out birth and death dates, to study obituaries and to track movement patterns. We have continued to build this data set, adding in architects from all over New Zealand and relevant data about them; currently we have around 20,000 individual building tenders for buildings across the country between 1840 and 1940.

This paper analyses our data to give a view of "an architect" in 1914, the year architects in New Zealand were first required to be registered. How many were there? How old were they and how long had they been practicing? And what else can we find out? We also discuss the advantages and pitfalls of dealing with a large data set, and explore how we can ensure the validity and accuracy of the results.
An examination of photographic records pertaining to the architecture of Rua Kēnana and the community of Maungapōhatu, 1911-16
Authors: Wood Peter
Published: August 2022

New Zealand's architectural history, while in no way a culturally comprehensive documentary, has found a special place for Kēnana's isolated Te Urewera community. Credit for this can be attached to Hiona, the remarkable circular temple Kēnana constructed that has, in no small way, become an icon of Māori architecture. However, it is not well appreciated that, by the time of Kēnana's detention, the ritual functioning of Hiona had been largely abandoned. Indeed, the community of Maungapōhatu needs to be understood as having an architecture of two phases. Hiona was constructed in 1907 during a period of optimism for Kēnana and his followers. However, by 1911, Maungapōhatu was in significant decline and in 1914 Kēnana began to systematically reconstruct the architecture of his community. Hiona was abandoned and a more conformist meeting house, Tānenui-a-rangi, was built. At the same time Kēnana reclassified the physical boundaries of the village, clearing areas of dwellings and establishing new spatial hierarchies concerning tapu (sacred) and noa (common) values. In this paper I will be examining in detail the extraordinary photographs available of Maungapōhatu from this timeframe to extract characteristics of the architecture. While some attention will be given to Hiona and the establishment of the village, the emphasis of the research is placed on the second reconstruction period with attention being given to the discernible architectural significance of the changes. In particular this will address Hiruharama Hou, Kēnana's twin gable house which remained a constant above the village and whose architectural role has not yet been sufficiently explored.
Healthcare to Humancare: The Process to Rehabilitation
Authors:   , Tricker Bronte
Published: August 2022

New imperatives are currently challenging the historic concept of the public hospital, yet its architectural environment remains rooted in a reductive and alienating building infrastructure. More often than not, the repercussions of a person’s medical diagnosis are caused by insufficient medical facilities and rehabilitation services provided by healthcare architecture, rather than by the condition itself. The current architecture creates sterile and isolating environments, confirming the disconnect patients have felt while describing their physical and social environments while in the hospital. As the aesthetics of a space and its outlook can have a quantitative impact on a person’s well-being and recovery, it becomes increasingly difficult for patients to remain hopeful about their recovery while living in a sterile hospital setting. This thesis then goes on to examine ‘how can medical architecture adopt a holistic approach to rehabilitation in order to improve the normalcy of a patient’s hospitalised experience?

This research investigation aims to present a new healthcare model that enhances the rehabilitation process by creating a physical and social environment that supports the holistic well-being of patients and their support networks. To achieve this, an alternative model that establishes a closer connection between people and place, domesticates the lived experience of patients in hospital, and enhances the holistic performance of rehabilitation services is examined. This thesis looks to effectively re-design Kenepuru Hospital in Porirua, Wellington, with the purpose of demonstrating how architectural form, programme, and therapeutic environment can be strategically interwoven to enhance the rehabilitative process and performance of patients in hospital.

A interdisciplinaridade tem sido incentivada nos diferentes níveis de ensino, para atingir uma visão ampla dos conhecimentos provenientes da integração dos diferentes saberes. Este trabalho apresenta o Projeto Interlicenciaturas, o qual foi desenvolvido na perspectiva interdisciplinar, com futuros professores da área das Ciências da Natureza e Matemática (CNM), de uma Universidade Federal, do estado do Rio Grande do Sul. O foco deste estudo é apresentar a atividade didática de Teias interdisciplinares[1] elaborada pelos licenciandos participantes do projeto, e discutir as relações interdisciplinares traçadas nessa atividade inicial de sensibilização. A metodologia utilizada foi de Pesquisa de Design Educacional, a qual identifica problemas reais e busca solucioná-los, sendo o problema identificado a carência de vivências interdisciplinares nos cursos de licenciaturas da área das CNM. As Teias Interdisciplinares elaboradas foram analisadas e categorizadas pela técnica de análise de conteúdo (BARDIN, 1977). As categorias que emergiram quanto às relações interdisciplinares traçadas foram: Sem Relação e Relação Parcial. Dos nove grupos de participantes, apenas quatro construíram teias com relações parciais, com indícios de interdisciplinaridade, apontando o quão desafiador é realizar abordagens nesta perspectiva. Esta investigação aponta a necessidade de investir desde a formação inicial em práticas e saberes docentes, fundada na perspectiva da interdisciplinaridade.
 
[1] O termo Teias Interdisciplinares foi cunhado pela autora, a definição deste termo refere-se à atividade didática desenvolvida que consiste na elaboração de um cartaz, com a escolha de um tema central e partir deste sejam traçados termos e conceitos dos diferentes componentes curriculares da área do conhecimento, traçando uma rede de conexões, semelhantes aos fios de uma teia de aranha. A analogia da construção interdisciplinar com as teias das aranhas, é devido os diferentes tipos de construções e dos processos de tessituras. Representa uma rede de conhecimento com construção constante, conectável em diversas extremidades e cada novo “fio” que for tecido possa fazer novas integrações possibilitando suas múltiplas ligações interdisciplinares. Assim como uma teia de aranha, os fios são tecidos e conectados permitindo sustentação, o processo é infindável. A teia está em constante produção nunca pronta ou totalmente finalizada, sendo possível sempre adicionar novos fios refazendo sua arquitetura. Os fios não são tecidos de forma linear e sim em forma de rede, que se cruzam em diversos pontos permitindo assim o entrelaçado dos conhecimentos de uma teia interdisciplinar

Este artigo apresenta um estudo preliminar sobre as relações entre atividades docentes, a raça dos docentes e o Índice Geral de Cursos (IGC), o principal indicador de qualidade do ensino superior. Para isso, três modelos de regressão linear múltipla foram estimados, acompanhados de uma análise descritiva. Os resultados indicam a importância da participação em pesquisa e da bolsa de pesquisa para o aumento do indicador. Políticas de apoio a atividades docentes além do ensino podem resultar em maior capacitação de professores e alunos. Do ponto de vista de equidade, o aumento da proporção de docentes brancos melhora o IGC, enquanto o aumento de docentes pardos gera uma piora no índice. Isso aponta para a necessidade de estudos mais profundos sobre a equidade docente no ensino superior.

Modelagens inferenciais na área de saúde possibilitam análises sobre temas relevantes, dentre eles o estudo sobre as relações entre as variáveis relacionadas aos pacientes e o seu tempo de internação.  Além da grande importância médica e hospitalar, aspectos gerenciais e logísticos também devem ser levados em consideração para este tipo de estudo. Neste artigo, um modelo de regressão múltipla é proposto com o objetivo de identificar as relações entre variáveis de prematuros de baixo risco, internados em uma maternidade pública do Rio de Janeiro, e o tempo de internação na unidade de terapia intensiva neonatal. Em particular, o principal objetivo é analisar a importância da fisioterapia nas equipes multidisciplinares que compõe o quadro da unidade. A base de dados é constituída por 154 recém-nascidos, 94 com acesso a fisioterapia e 60 sem acesso. Os resultados, embora preliminares, indicam a redução de uma semana no tempo de internação de prematuros com acesso a fisioterapia. Trabalhos futuros com aumento da base de dados e informações de diferentes maternidades podem consolidar os resultados obtidos.
Reservorio de Nitrógeno y relación C:N de un Umbrisol bajo manejo forestal en Durango, México

Las actividades forestales influyen positiva o negativamente sobre las propiedades y servicios ecosistémicos del suelo, mediante cambios en la vegetación y microclima. La remoción de biomasa altera los ciclos del Carbono (C) y Nitrógeno (N), indicadores importantes de la salud edáfica. El objetivo fue determinar el reservorio de N y la relación C:N en dos profundidades de un Umbrisol, en tres rodales con cortas de regeneración (Matarrasa, Árboles Padre y Selección), un área regenerada posincendio con antigüedad de ocho años de ser intervenidos y un rodal de referencia (control) en un bosque de pino-encino (Pinus-Quercus). Los resultados indicaron diferencias significativas para N total, C orgánico, relación C:N, y reservorio de N Mg ha-1 para ambas profundidades del suelo. Los contenidos de N total (>0.10 %) se consideran muy altos, atribuibles a la naturaleza del Umbrisol y calidad de su materia orgánica, lo que influye en la relación C:N, la cual está ligeramente por encima de los intervalos óptimos de mineralización, con un promedio para ambas profundidades de 20.4. La reserva de N para el perfil analizado varió entre 5.03 (Referencia) a 9.63 Mg ha-1 (Árboles Padre). Particularmente, las cortas de Matarrasa y Árboles Padre tuvieron diferencias con el control, estos tratamientos aceleraron la incorporación de material orgánico al suelo (raíces, ramas, hojas) que provocaron incrementos de 79 a 91 % en el reservorio de N. La información generada es fundamental para el establecimiento de prácticas complementarias pre y posmanejo forestal (limpias, podas, quemas) que conserven y mejoren la condición del suelo.

De acuerdo a lo establecido en las normas oficiales de Brasil, los planes de manejo sostenible para los bosques tropicales en los que se pretende ejecutar extracciones madereras, deben basarse en inventarios forestales realizados en 100 % de la superficie sujeta al aprovechamiento. Para evaluar los trabajos forestales realizados en 20 sitios gestionados con planes de manejo forestal sostenible localizados en el estado de Mato Grosso, Brasil, se analizaron 17 verificadores tropicales de sostenibilidad de un total de 140, relativos a los inventarios forestales concluidos y en curso. Los resultados mostraron que 65 % de ellos requieren acciones de corrección en el plazo máximo de un año, 18 % en 60 días, 5 % tenían solo carácter de recomendación, y 12 % proponían la suspensión de los programas forestales de manejo. Se contrastó sobre el terreno la información textual y cartográfica procedente de los inventarios, lo cual permitió conocer la localización geográfica de los árboles derribados y de los aprovechables. Las normas oficiales de verificación son suficientemente objetivas como para dejar poco margen a la subjetividad de los evaluadores de la calidad de los inventarios. El sistema de evaluación fue eficiente. La identificación botánica evidenció una enorme carencia de conocimientos dendrológicos por parte de los responsables de los inventarios.
