Purpose – This paper aims to analyse the capital structure determining factors of Latin American and US corporations after the crisis of 2008, as a means of comparing theoretical assumptions and empirical results in markets of different efficiency levels. Design/methodology/approach – The study sample comprises 1,091 companies belonging to the six largest economies in Latin America plus the USA, in the years 2009 to 2013. The authors performed a regression with data from a balanced overview, which were obtained by using the criterion of minimum weighted square. Findings – The results demonstrated differences in determining factors of capital structure between companies from Latin America and from the USA. The pecking order theory was mostly observed in Latin American companies and the trade-off theory greater was closely aligned with US firms. Originality/value – This research br...

Gold extraction via small scale mining in the Amazon rainforest of Peru has become one of the greatest threats to deforestation and land degradation in the Amazon, especially in the Madre de Dios region which is one of the last biggest remnants of continuous tropical rainforest in the world. Restoration of these degraded ecosystems have become a priority in the last decade but without concrete actions, however, few research has been conducted in response to these restoration activities nor natural regeneration. The significance of this research was to 1) To Analyze how gold mining affects forest structure, species richness and diversity in the Amazon Rainforest of Madre de Dios, Peru. 2) To assess variation on diversity levels in secondary successional forest compared to that found in primary forest 3) to identify variations in the gold extraction methods reported in the region and how i...

The purpose of this study was to propose a model for understanding the relationships among the Total Quality Management (TQM) Practices and the Performance, considering the culture, the industrial sector and the size of the firms. After the evaluation of the proposed model in a specific developing country, some conclusions were the following: (a) TQM Practices had a significant relationship with the operational performance of the private firms, but not for all types of firms, (b) TQM practices which were most related with the operational performance of firms which produced services: (i) in small firms were: the training of the workers, the management commitment, and the customer focus, (ii) in medium firms were: quality management of providers, product design, and the management commitment, and (iii) in the big firms were: product design, management commitment and customer focus, and c) ...

This study evaluated risk factors associated with asymptomatic malaria among adults in communities near Iquitos: Zungarococha, Puerto Almendra, Ninarumi, and Llanchama. The sample consisted of 412 adults enrolled in a previous study conducted in 2017. The techniques used were a database review and standardized PCR and ELISA tests, and the instruments were a data collection form and a results processing form. The study found a prevalence of 10.2% of asymptomatic malaria, 4 times (16.5%) more cases of malaria were detected by PCR, 64.7% of submicroscopic cases were asymptomatic, and 97.6% of asymptomatic malaria cases were caused by Plasmodium vivax. The sociodemographic factors associated with the risk of asymptomatic malaria were living in Llanchama (OR 3.5, p<0.001, 95% CI 1.776–6.995) and being a laborer (OR 4.2, p=0.021, 95% CI 1.241–14.363). The epidemiological factors associated...

Las actividades humanas están produciendo un exceso de gases de efecto invernadero que están potencialmente calentando el clima de la tierra. En tanto que los ecosistemas forestales están almacenando el Carbono de la atmósfera en la biomasa y el suelo. La siguiente investigación, “Evaluación del incremento volumétrico de cinco especies forestales y su almacenamiento de captura de carbono, Centro de Producción e Investigación Pabloyacu, Moyobamba – 2018”, tuvo como objetivo general la evaluación del incremento volumétrico de cinco especies forestales y su almacenamiento de captura de carbono; Eucalipto torrelliana, Eucalipto saligna, Bolaina, Pino chuncho y Tornillo, especies encontradas, en la plantación forestal perteneciente al Centro de Investigación se desarrolló metodológicamente en dos fases, la fase de campo, que se desarrolló por etapas, la etapa de identifi...

The aim of this research was to develop gluten-free (GF) and egg-free quinoa pasta with high nutritional value. Extruded and non-extruded quinoa (red and white) flour, potato starch, tara gum, and potato, pea and rice protein isolates were investigated in different recipes, some of them included egg white as an initial reference point. Results showed that extruded quinoa flour, potato starch and tara gum had deteriorating effects on GF and egg-free pasta firmness and cooking quality. Lupine flour addition itself was not able to replace egg white when added in the same amounts, but after increasing the concentration to 12%, the firmness and cooking quality decreasing effects could be improved again, especially when tara gum was absent in the formulations. In the final recipe, the content of lupine flour was increased to 30% because its protein is complementary to the quinoa protein. From ...

The Regional Government of Cajamarca started in 2014 the recognition process as a regional conservation area of the El Chaupe, Cunia and Chinchiquilla Forests. The objective of this study was to estimate the social benefits and costs for the establishment of the conservation area, which will serve the regional authority to manage its creation. In order to achieve the objective, a contingent valuation study was carried out in order to estimate the economic value of the main services provided by forests, after which, these values were added to infer the social benefits they generate in a scenario of improvements through conservation programs. In addition, the probable costs of the optimal management of the area in which installation and program costs with long-term vision are included were estimated. The investigation concludes that the net social benefits range between 25 and ...
