Uso de tecnología en los procesos de Orientación
Authors: Gómez-Díaz David 
Published: April 2024

El presente artículo analiza el uso de las tecnologías en los procesos de Orientación durante el año 2020. Año en el cual el contexto educativo y la disciplina de la Orientación buscó reinventarse a partir del uso exponencial de la tecnología. A partir del enfoque cualitativo se llevó a cabo la investigación desde un diseño fenomenológico al realizar entrevistas semiestructuradas a 11 profesionales en Orientación. La información obtenida fue transcrita, organizada y codificada para determinar cuáles fueron las acciones planteadas por las personas profesionales, cómo fueron realizadas dichas intervenciones a partir del uso de las tecnologías y cuáles fueron los beneficios de las mismas. La investigación encontró que las intervenciones se enfocaron en facilitar orientación vocacional, distribuir información y crear comunidades en línea. Estos proyectos incluyeron el uso de WhatsApp, Teams, y otras herramientas digitales, así como técnicas como videos, imágenes y actividades masivas en línea. Se destacan fortalezas, como el aprendizaje autodidacta, la superación de desafíos y la reducción de costos. Sin embargo, se identificaron limitaciones, como el desconocimiento tecnológico, la falta de contacto humano y la brecha digital. El propósito de estas intervenciones fue promover el bienestar, la conexión, la comunicación y la distribución de información con la población estudiantil. Sin embargo, es crucial medir la efectividad de estas estrategias. Aunque se destaca el potencial de la tecnología en la orientación, las limitaciones, como la brecha digital y la necesidad de contacto humano, persisten como desafíos a superar para una implementación más efectiva en futuros proyectos.

Abstract
The earthquake doublet of Mw 6.5 and 6.9 occurred along the west-dipping Central Range fault (CRF) adjacent to the east-dipping creep segment of the Longitudinal Valley fault in eastern Taiwan on 17–18 September 2022. The faulting model derived from the Interferometric Synthetic Aperture Radar and Global Positioning System observation suggests that the west-dipping CRF rupture is responsible for the two mainshocks. Meanwhile, the two major earthquakes resulted in ∼100 km of fault slip along the double-convergent plate boundary faults near the Longitudinal Valley in eastern Taiwan. The 2022 Chihshang earthquake sequence filled the seismic gap of the CRF located between the 2006 ML 6.1 Taitung earthquake and the 2013 ML 6.1 Ruisui earthquake. Finally, the 2022 Chihshang earthquake sequence increased the Coulomb failure stress in the southernmost segment of the CRF, which may cause a higher seismic potential in the future.
SKHASH: A Python Package for Computing Earthquake Focal Mechanisms
Authors: Skoumal Robert J. , Hardebeck Jeanne L. , Shearer Peter M. 
Published: April 2024

Abstract
We introduce a Python package for computing focal mechanism solutions. This algorithm, which we refer to as SKHASH, is largely based on the HASH algorithm originally written in Fortran over 20 yr ago. HASH innovated the use of suites of solutions, spanning the expected errors in polarities and takeoff angles, to estimate focal mechanism uncertainty. SKHASH benefits from new features with flexible input formats and allows users to take advantage of recent advances in constraining focal mechanisms for small magnitude or poorly recorded earthquakes. The 3D locations of earthquakes and the velocity models used are varied when finding acceptable solutions. As a result, source–receiver azimuths are reflective of errors from the earthquake locations and velocity models, in addition to the takeoff angles. Users can consider weighted P-wave first-motion polarities derived from traditional or machine-learning picks, cross-correlation consensus, and/or imputation techniques using SKHASH. Focal mechanism solutions can also be further constrained using traditional, machine learning, and/or cross-correlation consensus S/P amplitude ratios. With improved reporting of individual and collective P polarity and S/P amplitude misfits, users can better evaluate the success of the solutions and the quality of the measurements. The reporting also makes it easier to identify potential issues with metadata, including incorrectly reported station polarity reversals. In addition, by leveraging vectorized operations, taking advantage of an efficient backend Python C Application Programming Interface, and the use of a parallel environment, the Python SKHASH routine may compute mechanisms quicker than the HASH routine.
Direct Evidence for Diverse Source Complexity in Small Earthquakes (Mw 3.3–5.0) Obtained from Near-Source Borehole Seismic Data
Authors: Yoshida Keisuke 
Published: April 2024

Abstract
Small earthquakes (Mw &lt;5) may have a similar degree of complexity as large earthquakes. However, their seismic waveforms are strongly distorted during wave propagation, making their complexity challenging to resolve. In many cases, the source parameters of small events are determined based on models that assume their source patterns are simple. In this study, to directly examine the source complexities in small events, we examined high-quality near-source (&lt;8 km) seismic waveforms recorded by two excellent downhole sensors in Japan. The results show that the P waveforms of microearthquakes (Mw &lt;2) are always simple at the sensors and agree well with the synthetic waveforms based on a 1D structure up to 20 Hz. The microearthquake waveforms in this frequency band essentially represent path effects besides the static source effect, suggesting that the contribution of structural inhomogeneity to the observed waveforms is small. Taking advantage of this, we inferred the moment rate functions of 164 Mw 3.3–5.0 events from the shapes of the direct P waves. They showed diversity in their complexity, and even conservatively estimated, 25% of the events had multiple subevents. The results suggest that methods that account for complexity, rather than those that assume a simple source pattern, are required to characterize even small events.

Authors: Vrublevsky A. V. , Saushkin V. V. 
Published: April 2024

Aim. Comparative analysis of the height of atherosclerotic plaques (AP) in the descending thoracic aorta (TA) according to two-dimensional (2D) and three-dimensional (3D) transesophageal echocardiography (TEE), and contrast-enhanced multislice computed tomography (MSCT).Material and methods. The TA was examined using 2D, 3D TEE and contrast-enhanced MSCT in 34 patients (20 men and 14 women aged 68 [62; 71] years). AP heights were compared using the Bland-Altman method and the Spearman correlation analysis. This was a blinded comparative study which assessed the AP morphometry using each of the radiation modalities without knowing the results of the method being compared.Results. 100 APs were examined in the descending TA. The mean height of all analyzed APs in the descending TA was 2.2 mm [2; 2.7] for 2D TEE, 3.1 mm [2.7; 3.55] for 3D TEE, and 3.05 mm [2.55; 3.55] for MSCT. The AP heights measured with 2D TEE was statistically significantly smaller than the heights of similar APs measured either with 3D TEE or MSCT. The mean difference (bias) was 0.88±0.34 mm between 2D and 3D TEE, and 0.83±0.41 mm between 2D TEE and MSCT. The correlation coefficients for the AP heights were r=0.87 (p<0.001) between 2D and 3D TEE and r=0.86 (p<0.001) between 2D TEE and MSCT. There were no differences in the height of similar APs between 3D TEE and MSCT.Conclusion. The three-dimensional reconstruction of AP in the TA by TEE is more accurate for quantitative assessment of AP than a two-dimensional study.

Aim. Identification of interleukin-6 (IL-6) signaling pathways in patients with chronic heart failure (CHF).Material and methods. The diversity of IL-6 effects is due to the presence of classical signaling and trans-signaling pathways. The study included 164 patients with CHF hospitalized for acute decompensated heart failure (ADHF), of which 129 had reduced left ventricular ejection fraction (HFrEF), and 35 had preserved ejection fraction (HFpEF). Blood concentrations of IL-6, soluble IL-6 receptor (sIL-6R), soluble transducer protein gp130 (sgp130), and high-sensitivity C-reactive protein (hsCRP) were measured.Results. Patients with HFpEF had lower concentrations of IL-6 (6.15 [2.78, 10.65] pg/ml) and hsCRP (11.27 [5.84, 24.40] mg/ml) than patients with HFrEF (9.20 [4.70; 15.62] pg/ml and 17.23 [8.70; 34.51 mg/ml], respectively). In contrast, concentrations of rIL-6R were higher in HFpEF (59.06 [40.00; 75.85] ng/ml) than in HFrEF (49.15 [38.20; 64.89] ng/ml). Concentrations of sgp130 were not significantly different. In patients with HFrEF, positive correlations were found between the concentrations of IL-6 and hsCRP, IL-6 and rIL-6R, and IL-6 and sgp130, while in patients with HFpEF, there was a correlation only between IL-6 and hsCRP, which appeared stronger than in patients with HFrEF (r=0.698; p<0.001 and r=0.297; p<0.05, respectively).Conclusion. Classical IL-6 signaling and trans-signaling are expressed to different degrees in patients with HFrEF and HFpEF in ADHF. The results of the study supplement the existing knowledge about the pathogenesis of inflammation in CHF and may contribute to the development of new methods and approaches to the treatment of the disease.

Resurfacing complex knee and upper third leg defect with reverse vastus lateralis muscle flap in a flap exhausted leg - A case report
Authors: S. Mashalkar Narendra 
Published: April 2024

Coverage of upper third leg and knee defects are complex and the main supply of pedicled flaps come from the uninjured leg. Hence planning of flaps from leg must be meticulous, because if these fail then reveres flow flaps from thigh or micro vascular surgery will become the only option. Both have their own set of complications and patients who cannot tolerate micro vascular surgery due to their prolonged duration, co morbidities, and severe atherosclerosis of vessels, end up as thigh flaps being the only resort. Thigh flaps come with a set of complications of their own and even these fail, with above knee amputation being the ultimate option, which patient hardly expects as end result with many stages of reconstruction already being done. It’s a nightmare for both surgeon and patient.

Published: April 2024

Introduction
Pragmatic clinical trials (PCTs) are designed to connect researchers with clinicians to assess the real-world effectiveness and feasibility of interventions, treatments, or health care delivery strategies in routine practice. Within PCTs larger, more representative sampling is possible to improve the external validity of the research. Older adults from underrepresented groups can benefit from PCTs given their historically lower engagement in clinical research. The current article focuses on older Hispanic adults with Alzheimer disease and related dementias (ADRDs). Older Hispanic adults represent 19% of the US population and have a higher prevalence of ADRDs than Whites. We provide data from 2 PCTs about the recruitment of older Hispanics with ADRDs and discuss unique challenges associated with conducting PCTs and propose strategies to overcome challenges.

Data and Methods
The first PCT outlined is the Patient Priorities Care for Hispanics with Dementia (PPC-HD) trial. PPC-HD is testing the feasibility of implementing a culturally adapted version of the Patient Priorities Care approach for older Hispanic adults with multiple chronic conditions and dementia. The second PCT is the Dementia Care (D-CARE) Study, which is a multisite pragmatic study comparing the effectiveness of a health care system–based approach and a community-based approach to dementia care to usual care in patients with ADRDs and their family caregivers.

Lessons Learned and Recommendations for Future Studies
The lessons learned are summarized according to the various stakeholders that need to work together to effectively recruit diverse participants for PCTs: individuals, health care systems, research teams, and communities. Individual-level considerations include communication, priorities, and flexibility. Health care system–level considerations are grounded in 4 principles of Community-Based Participatory Research and include collaboration/partnership, available resources, priorities of the health care system, and sustainability. Research team–level considerations include team members, intentionality, and communication. Community-level considerations highlight the importance of partnerships, community members, and appropriate incentives.

Discussion
PCTs provide a unique and potentially impactful opportunity to test interventions in real-world settings that must be culturally appropriate to reach underrepresented groups. Collectively, considering variables at multiple levels to address the needs of older adults with ADRDs is crucial, and the examples and suggestions provided in this report are a foundation for future research.

Introduction
Immigration has been identified as an important social determinant of health (SDH), embodying structures and policies that reinforce positions of poverty, stress, and limited social and economic mobility. In the public health literature with regard to diet, immigration is often characterized as an individual-level process (dietary acculturation) and is largely examined in one racial/ethnic subgroup at a time. For this narrative review, we aim to broaden the research discussion by describing SDH common to the immigrant experience and that may serve as barriers to healthy diets.

Methods
A narrative review of peer-reviewed quantitative, qualitative, and mixed methods studies on cardiometabolic health disparities, diet, and immigration was conducted.

Results
Cardiometabolic disease disparities were frequently described by racial/ethnic subgroups instead of country of origin. While cardiovascular disease and obesity risk differed by country of origin, diabetes prevalence was typically higher for immigrant groups vs United States (US)-born individuals. Common barriers to achieving a healthy diet were food insecurity; lack of familiarity with US food procurement practices, food preparation methods, and dietary guidelines; lack of familiarity and distrust of US food processing and storage methods; alternative priorities for food purchasing (eg, freshness, cultural relevance); logistical obstacles (eg, transportation); stress; and ethnic identity maintenance.

Conclusions
To improve the health of immigrant populations, understanding similarities in cardiometabolic health disparities, diet, and barriers to health across immigrant communities—traversing racial/ethnic subgroups—may serve as a useful framework. This framework can guide research, policy, and public health practices to be more cohesive, generalizable, and meaningfully inclusive.
Balanced on the Biggest Wave: Nirsevimab for Newborns
Authors: McPherson Christopher , Lockowitz Christine R. , Newland Jason G. 
Published: April 2024

Respiratory syncytial virus (RSV) is the leading cause of hospitalization in infancy in the United States. Nearly all infants are infected by 2 years of age, with bronchiolitis requiring hospitalization often occurring in previously healthy children and long-term consequences of severe disease including delayed speech development and asthma. Incomplete passage of maternal immunity and a high degree of genetic variability within the virus contribute to morbidity and have also prevented successful neonatal vaccine development. Monoclonal antibodies reduce the risk of hospitalization from severe RSV disease, with palivizumab protecting high-risk newborns with comorbidities including chronic lung disease and congenital heart disease. Unfortunately, palivizumab is costly and requires monthly administration of up to five doses during the RSV season for optimal protection.Rapid advances in the past two decades have facilitated the identification of antibodies with broad neutralizing activity and allowed manipulation of their genetic code to extend half-life. These advances have culminated with nirsevimab, a monoclonal antibody targeting the Ø antigenic site on the RSV prefusion protein and protecting infants from severe disease for an entire 5-month season with a single dose. Four landmark randomized controlled trials, the first published in July 2020, have documented the efficacy and safety of nirsevimab in healthy late-preterm and term infants, healthy preterm infants, and high-risk preterm infants and those with congenital heart disease. Nirsevimab reduces the risk of RSV disease requiring medical attention (number needed to treat [NNT] 14–24) and hospitalization (NNT 33–63) with rare mild rash and injection site reactions. Consequently, the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention has recently recommended nirsevimab for all infants younger than 8 months of age entering or born during the RSV season and high-risk infants 8–19 months of age entering their second season. Implementing this novel therapy in this large population will require close multidisciplinary collaboration. Equitable distribution through minimizing barriers and maximizing uptake must be prioritized.
Assimilation of Geophysics-Derived Spatial Data for Model Calibration in Geologic CO2 Sequestration

Published: April 2024

Summary
Uncertainty in geological models usually leads to large uncertainty in the predictions of risk-related system properties and/or risk metrics (e.g., CO2 plumes and CO2/brine leakage rates) at a geologic CO2 storage site. Different types of data (e.g., point measurements from monitoring wells and spatial data from 4D seismic surveys) can be leveraged or assimilated to reduce the risk predictions. In this work, we develop a novel framework for spatial data assimilation and risk forecasting. Under the U.S. Department of Energy’s National Risk Assessment Partnership (NRAP), we have developed a framework using an ensemble-based data assimilation approach for spatial data assimilation and forecasting. In particular, we took CO2 saturation maps interpreted from 4D seismic surveys as inputs for spatial data assimilation. Three seismic surveys at Years 1, 3, and 5 were considered in this study. Accordingly, three saturation maps were generated for data assimilation. The impact from the level of data noise was also investigated in this work. Our results show increased similarity between the updated reservoir models and the “ground-truth” model with the increased number of seismic surveys. Predictive accuracy in CO2 saturation plume increases with the increased number of seismic surveys as well. We also observed that with the increase in the level of data noise from 1% to 10%, the difference between the updated models and the ground truth does not increase significantly. Similar observations were made for the prediction of CO2 plume distribution at the end of the CO2 injection period by increasing the data noise.
An Analytical Relative Permeability Model Considering Flow Path Structural Characteristics for Gas-Liquid Two-Phase Flow in Shale Fracture
Authors: Pang Hong , Wang Duo , Wu Tong , Wang Rui , Dai Xu , Lu Meng , Pan Zhejun 
Published: April 2024

Summary
Relative permeability models are essential in describing the multiphase fluid flow in reservoir rocks. Literature work has shown that the existing theoretical models of relative permeability cannot perfectly describe the two-phase flow experimental data in fractures because those models are mostly developed for porous media (such as sandstone) or proposed without fully taking the specific characteristics of two-phase flow into consideration. In this paper, we propose a theoretical two-phase flow relative permeability model based on the tortuous flow channels, considering the structural characteristics of two-phase flow in the fractures. This model considers that the gas and liquid flow through different channels of different shapes and sizes at the same time. The formula for two-phase relative permeability was derived from cubic law in fracture and Darcy’s law, with the influence of the slip effect of the gas phase also considered. The results from different models were compared using several series of experimental data. The model proposed in this paper has a better fit than the others for the raw experimental data. This study demonstrates that it is crucial to take the flow paths and distribution of the two phases into consideration to model the two-phase flow in fracture accurately. This work also found that the tortuosity of the gas channel at the irreducible liquid saturation has a negative effect on gas relative permeability but positive to liquid relative permeability. Moreover, the model demonstrates that the decrease in aperture leads to an increase in the gas relative permeability due to gas slippage, while the impact of gas slippage reduces under high pressure.
