Objective: To determine if there are differences between persons with chronic diseases with no renal insufficiency compared to health persons in body structure, renal function and dietary habits. Methods: Volunteer participants compared by age (20-80 years); body mass index (BMI 20-25 kg/m2) and serum creatinine <1.1 mg/dl were included. Study design, a comparison of independent groups, group 1 (n=50) healthy adults without known previous condition not taking any medication and with a satisfactory quality of life, group 2 (n=46) persons with any chronic condition of > 3 months. Weight, height, body water, body fat, lean body mass measured by electric bioimpedance; serum urea and creatinine and urine creatinine, electrolytes and urea were measured in both groups. Creatinine and urea clearance, daily protein intake and daily consumption of sodium salt and potassium were measured...

The objective of this work was to compare different approaches that allow a better characterization of the environmental quality using benthic macroinvertebrates as indicators in rivers of the southwestern highlands. The study was developed with data from the hydrobiology monitoring of the Quellaveco Project between the years 2013-2015, with which we obtained quality indices (ABI, EPT, IMEERA and SVAP), community structure indices (Shannon, Simpson, N1 of the Hill and Pielou series) and functional diversity indices (richness, diversity, dissimilarity and functional equity, and Rao’s Q). The results of the multivariate analyzes showed that the rates of functional diversity, Simpson’s index and IMEERA have significant representativeness in the study units. We concluded that functional diversity indices can be alternative to traditional and environmental quality indices, in addition to ...

VIRTUAL REALITY (VR) HAS EMERGED AS AN INNOVATIVE TOOL IN THE FIELD OF PHYSICAL REHABILITATION (PR), OFFERING AN IMMERSIVE APPROACH TO IMPROVE MOTOR FUNCTION AND QUALITY OF LIFE IN PATIENTS. HOWEVER, THE EFFECTIVENESS OF VR COMPARED TO OTHER REHABILITATION METHODS REMAINS UNDER STUDY. THE PRESENT STUDY AIMS TO ANALYZE THE USES OF VR IN PR THROUGH A SYSTEMATIC REVIEW OF THE AVAILABLE LITERATURE, ASSESSING ITS IMPACT ON PHYSICAL FUNCTION AND QUALITY OF LIFE IN PATIENTS. A SYSTEMATIC REVIEW WAS CONDUCTED FOLLOWING PRISMA GUIDELINES. 21 STUDIES PUBLISHED BETWEEN 2014 AND 2024 WERE SELECTED, OBTAINED FROM DATABASES SUCH AS SCOPUS, SCIENCEDIRECT, AND EBSCO. THE STUDIES INCLUDED DIVERSE POPULATIONS REQUIRING PR USING IMMERSIVE AND NON-IMMERSIVE VR TECHNOLOGIES. THE STUDIES SHOWED THAT IMMERSIVE VR PROVIDED GREATER IMPROVEMENTS IN BALANCE AND GAIT, ESPECIALLY IN PATIENTS WITH PARKINSON'S, COMPAR...

In 14 women with cervical factor infertility functional postcoital tests preovulatory 30 days, with accurate counts of spermatozoa in mucus cervicaI and intrauterine contents were made. The values are compared with the breasts of 19 women, multiparous. A normal patient and two infertile were followed with serial through a full cycle. Exact quantification of mucus crystallization, made by a new method, proved to be a good criterion for evaluating the cervical penetrability. A intracervical level infertile group results were not significantly different from controls; a slight decrease of mobile sperm directional no practical value. By contrast, intrauterine level in infertile sperm group were detected in only 7 of the 30 cases with very low concentrations; in the control group were 18 of 19 cases. It emphasizes the value of intrauterine sperm count, much higher than intracervical tests. Th...

An initial ground validation of the Integrated Multisatellite Retrievals for GPM (IMERG) Day-1 product from March 2014 to August 2015 is presented for the tropical Andes. IMERG was evaluated along with the Tropical Rainfall Measuring Mission (TRMM) Multisatellite Precipitation Analysis (TMPA) against 302 quality-controlled rain gauges across Ecuador and Peru. Detection, quantitative estimation statistics, and probability distribution functions are calculated at different spatial (0.1°, 0.25°) and temporal (1 h, 3 h, daily) scales. Precipitation products are analyzed for hydrometeorologically distinct subregions. Results show that IMERG has a superior detection and quantitative rainfall intensity estimation ability than TMPA, particularly in the high Andes. Despite slightly weaker agreement of mean rainfall fields, IMERG shows better characterization of gauge observations when separatin...

The seminal plasma (SP) has enzymatic and non-enzymatic antioxidants with the function of protecting sperm from the harmful effects of oxidative stress. The aim of this study was to evaluate the antioxidant contribution of SP during the freezing of equine semen and its effect on post-thawing sperm quality. The semen of five horses was collected, the SP was separated and supplemented in proportions of 0% (Control), 10% (PS10) and 20% (PS20) to the sperm fraction in the freezing extender. The total antioxidant capacity (TAC) was evaluated by the oxygen radical trapping capacity (ORAC) and ferric reducing capacity (FRAP) methods, and the activity of SOD, GPx and catalase enzymes by spectrophotometry. Fifteen ejaculates were subjected to freezing and motility (MOT), vitality (EV), morphology (AM), functional membrane integrity (MI) and mitochondrial membrane potential (MMP) of the sperm were...

The physicochemical and biological indices have been used in isolation; if the parameters of these indices were applied in an integrated manner, they would bring together in a single measure the functional and structural variability of the biotic and abiotic components of water quality. The aim of this study was to build a comprehensive water quality index. Eleven sampling points were selected considering different degrees of agro-industrial intervention. 21 abiotic variables and 27 biological metrics were measured. Macroinvertebrates were quantitatively collected and identified to family taxonomic level. Using Principal Component Analysis, after standardization and exclusion of uncorrelated variables (VIF ≤ 10), the abiotic gradient was determined, which represented the abiotic variables that explained the disturbances in the water; with the abiotic gradient and the biological metrics...

The quality of life perceived by patients with advanced cancer from a tertiary hospital is compared according to home care versus hospital care. Observational, cross-sectional study, included patients older than 18 years with cancer with multiple metastases. EORTC QLQ-C15-PAL quality of life survey was applied to patients with adequate cognitive level (Pfeiffer questionnaire). Chi square and Mann-Whitney, p <0.05, and SPSS 24.0 were used. 83 patients in the hospital group and 69 at home. Median age 66 and 76 years respectively (p <0.01); the female sex predominated (p = 0.60). They presented moderate or severe cognitive impairment, 25% hospital group and 58% home (p <0.01). The median quality of life score was 49.5 in the hospital group and 48 in the home group (p = 0.60), the physical functional aspect had a lower score in the hospital group (p <0.01).

Currently, the criteria to air quality assessment are analyzed independently, leaving aside the systemic approach of the environment, where air quality is influenced and controlled by many types of factors, where several parameters interact and mutually restrict each other for that reason a higher evaluation system is proposed by Grey Clustering analysis based on fuzzy logic, which takes into account the high degree of uncertainty present in the environment. The methodological proposal will assess the quality of air in Lima Metropolitana. In this work, we apply Center-point triangular whitenization weight functions (CTWF) method, where it will be demonstrated that the proposed model is exact, comparable and applicable. The monitoring data on each city of Lima Metropolitana were obtained from National Service of Meteorology and Hydrology of Peru – Senamhi. The CTWF method was applied us...

This study assessed the morphometric and functional characteristics of oocytes from 10 native cows to the Ecuadorian Andes, collected by transvaginal follicular aspiration (OPU) and oocytes collected post mortem (PM) from abattoir ovaries. For this purpose, 1157 cumulus-oocyte complexes (CCOs) of the OPU group (n=271) and PM group (n=886) were recovered in 10 repetitions per group by follicular aspiration at 90 mm Hg pressure and classified as A, B or C, according to the characteristics of the cytoplasm and cumulus cells. The activity of the enzyme glucose 6 phosphate dehydrogenase (G6PD) was determined as an indicator of follicular growth and maturation and the integrity of the plasma membrane by staining the CCOs with cresyl brilliant blue (BCB +) and trypan blue, respectively. The size (diameter and volume) of the oocytes was evaluated using CaptaVisio® software v. 5.1. The data were...
