Published: March 2024

La investigación tiene como objetivo, analizar el leasing y el renting como estrategia de financiamiento utilizada por las empresas arrendadoras de vehículos en la ciudad de Guayaquil, en la que se determina que el leasing y el renting son opciones de financiamiento que generan ventajas a las empresas arrendadoras. Se utiliza un muestreo no probabilístico por conveniencia, el que permite seleccionar de manera arbitraria el número de empresas que se desea encuestar. Las variables que componen la investigación son: el medio de financiamiento (el leasing y el renting) y empresas arrendadoras de vehículos. Se encuestó a 15 empresas, de las cuales respondieron 13, para lo cual se utilizó preguntas cerradas. Se determinó que el uso del renting y leasing, incrementan el nivel de liquidez, las empresas se liberan de las obligaciones bancarias que financian la compra de los vehículos en periodos determinados. El estudio muestra que, las mejores opciones de financiamiento con menor costo que utilizan las arrendadoras de vehículos son el leasing y el renting; las empresas que financian los contratos se encargan de la compra de los vehículos y las arrendadoras únicamente pagan la cuota por el uso sin constituir una deuda que afecte los estados financieros.

Introduction: Febrile seizures are a common condition in children that can cause concern for parents and healthcare professionals. Fever seizures are the brain's response to rapidly rising body temperature. In some cases, febrile seizures can cause a child's body temperature to rise dramatically, increasing the risk of complications. Nursing interventions in febrile seizures are crucial to manage symptoms and prevent complications that may arise. One intervention that can be applied is the use of tepid water sponge. This study aims to implement nursing care in children with a history of febrile seizures. Methods: This study used a case study design with a nursing approach. Study subjects were children with febrile seizures. Data collection uses a pediatric Nursing Care format which includes Assessment, Diagnosis, Intervention, Implementation, and Nursing Evaluation. Results: Based on the assessment, the patient appeared limp, the skin was palpated warm with a body temperature of 37.9'C, nursing diagnoses of Hyperthermia, Risk of Injury, Nausea. Planning and implementation are giving tepid water sponge, evaluation shows a decrease in temperature in children. Conclusion: The problem is resolved characterized by a decrease in fever in children and preventing the risks that will occur in pediatric clients with a history of febrile seizures. It is hoped that health workers can improve nursing skills in providing nursing care to pediatric clients with a history of febrile seizures.

Introduction: Tendinopathy is a degenerative condition resulting from tendons experiencing abnormal levels of multi-scale damage over time, impairing their ability to repair. However, the damage markers associated with the initiation of tendinopathy are poorly understood, as the disease is largely characterized by end-stage clinical phenotypes. Thus, this study aimed to evaluate the acute tendon responses to successive fatigue bouts of tendon overload using an in vivo passive ankle dorsiflexion system.Methods: Sprague Dawley female rats underwent fatigue overloading to their Achilles tendons for 1, 2, or 3 loading bouts, with two days of rest in between each bout. Mechanical, structural, and biological assays were performed on tendon samples to evaluate the innate acute healing response to overload injuries.Results: Here, we show that fatigue overloading significantly reduces in vivo functional and mechanical properties, with reductions in hysteresis, peak stress, and loading and unloading moduli. Multi-scale structural damage on cellular, fibril, and fiber levels demonstrated accumulated micro-damage that may have induced a reparative response to successive loading bouts. The acute healing response resulted in alterations in matrix turnover and early inflammatory upregulations associated with matrix remodeling and acute responses to injuries.Discussion: This work demonstrates accumulated damage and acute changes to the tendon healing response caused by successive bouts of in vivo fatigue overloads. These results provide the avenue for future investigations of long-term evaluations of tendon overload in the context of tendinopathy.

Published: March 2024

Background: Given the inherent variability in walking speeds encountered in day-to-day activities, understanding the corresponding alterations in ankle biomechanics would provide valuable clinical insights. Therefore, the objective of this study was to examine the influence of different walking speeds on biomechanical parameters, utilizing gait analysis and musculoskeletal modelling.Methods: Twenty healthy volunteers without any lower limb medical history were included in this study. Treadmill-assisted gait-analysis with walking speeds of 0.8 m/s and 1.1 m/s was performed using the Gait Real-time Analysis Interactive Lab (GRAIL®). Collected kinematic data and ground reaction forces were processed via the AnyBody® modeling system to determine ankle kinetics and muscle forces of the lower leg. Data were statistically analyzed using statistical parametric mapping to reveal both spatiotemporal and magnitude significant differences.Results: Significant differences were found for both magnitude and spatiotemporal curves between 0.8 m/s and 1.1 m/s for the ankle flexion (p &lt; 0.001), subtalar force (p &lt; 0.001), ankle joint reaction force and muscles forces of the M. gastrocnemius, M. soleus and M. peroneus longus (α = 0.05). No significant spatiotemporal differences were found between 0.8 m/s and 1.1 m/s for the M. tibialis anterior and posterior.Discussion: A significant impact on ankle joint kinematics and kinetics was observed when comparing walking speeds of 0.8 m/s and 1.1 m/s. The findings of this study underscore the influence of walking speed on the biomechanics of the ankle. Such insights may provide a biomechanical rationale for several therapeutic and preventative strategies for ankle conditions.

Published: March 2024

BackgroundThe mechanistic target of rapamycin (mTOR) signaling pathway has a significant effect on central precocious puberty (CPP). However, the causality between mTOR-dependent circulating protein levels and CPP is still unclear. Our aim is to assess the effects of seven mTOR-dependent circulating protein levels on CPP using Mendelian randomization (MR).MethodsInstrumental variables (IVs) for mTOR-dependent circulating protein levels were retrieved from the proteomics-GWAS INTERVAL study and eQTLGen. The summary-level genetic datasets for CPP outcome were obtained from the FinnGen Consortium. Inverse-variance weighted (IVW) was used as the primary method and the pleiotropy, heterogeneity and robustness of the analyses were detected as sensitivity analysis. Positive exposures in the discovery cohort would be revalidated in the validation cohort.ResultsThis two-sample MR study revealed a causal association between eIF4G level in plasma and CPP in both discovery cohort (IVW: OR = 0.45, 95% CI = 0.22–0.91, p = 0.026) and validation cohort (IVW: OR = 0.45, 95% CI = 0.24–0.85, p = 0.014).ConclusionsThere was a causal association between eIF4G level in plasma and CPP. Whether eIF4G can be used for the prevention or treatment of CPP needs to be explored in further studies.

IntroductionStress may pose a serious challenge to immune homeostasis. Stress however also may prepare the immune system for challenges such as wounding or infection, which are likely to happen during a fight or flight stress response.MethodsIn common carp (Cyprinus carpio L.) we studied the stress-induced redistribution of neutrophils into circulation, and the expression of genes encoding CXC chemokines known to be involved in the regulation of neutrophil retention (CXCL12) and redistribution (CXCL8), and their receptors (CXCR4 and CXCR1-2, respectively) in blood leukocytes and in the fish hematopoietic organ – the head kidney. The potential involvement of CXC receptors and stress hormone receptors in stress-induced neutrophil redistribution was determined by an in vivo study with selective CXCR inhibitors and antagonists of the receptors involved in stress regulation: glucocorticoid/mineralocorticoid receptors (GRs/MRs), adrenergic receptors (ADRs) and the melanocortin 2 receptor (MC2R).ResultsThe stress-induced increase of blood neutrophils was accompanied by a neutrophil decrease in the hematopoietic organs. This increase was cortisol-induced and GR-dependent. Moreover, stress upregulated the expression of genes encoding CXCL12 and CXCL8 chemokines, their receptors, and the receptor for granulocytes colony-stimulation factor (GCSFR) and matrix metalloproteinase 9 (MMP9). Blocking of the CXCR4 and CXCR1 and 2 receptors with selective inhibitors inhibited the stress-induced neutrophil redistribution and affected the expression of genes encoding CXC chemokines and CXCRs as well as GCSFR and MMP9.DiscussionOur data demonstrate that acute stress leads to the mobilization of the immune system, characterized by neutrophilia. CXC chemokines and CXC receptors are involved in this stress-induced redistribution of neutrophils from the hematopoietic tissue into the peripheral blood. This phenomenon is directly regulated by interactions between cortisol and the GR/MR. Considering the pivotal importance of neutrophilic granulocytes in the first line of defense, this knowledge is important for aquaculture, but will also contribute to the mechanisms involved in the stress-induced perturbation in neutrophil redistribution as often observed in clinical practice.
