ABSTRACT

INTRODUCCIÓN: La Organización Mundial de Salud (OMS), declaró a la COVID-19 como una pandemia. Por lo que junto a las autoridades de salud pública se adoptaron medidas para contener el brote, emitieron recomendaciones para la reorganización y ampliación progresiva de los Servicios de Salud en respuesta a la pandemia. Esto permitió visibilizar el liderazgo de las enfermeras/os, compromiso en la toma de decisiones de manera autónoma; además requirió planear, organizar, dirigir, implementar, medir y fortalecer la calidad del cuidado y la seguridad del paciente. OBJETIVO: Conocer el significado de liderazgo en la complejidad de la pandemia de la Covid 19 vivido por las enfermeras/os ecuatorianas desde la visión de las coordinadoras de enfermería. METODOLOGÍA: Fue abordada desde las nociones centrales de la fenomenología, que surge como un análisis de los fenómenos o las experiencias significativas de reflexión filosófica del pensamiento de Husserl. Las actoras claves seleccionadas dentro de los criterios de inclusión, fueron tres enfermeras de los hospitales más importantes de Ecuador. El instrumento aplicado radicó en entrevistas a profundidad. RESULTADOS: Las enfermeras/os ejercieron un liderazgo participativo fundamentados en el modelo de la teoría de la complejidad, frente a las instituciones de salud, en seis ejes fundamentales: talento humano, capacitación, trabajo en equipo, diseño normativo, condiciones de trabajo, manejo de las afecciones psicológicas y de salud. CONCLUSIONES: El estudio demostró que en el caso ecuatoriano el acercamiento teórico al liderazgo de la complejidad fue ratificado con la toma de decisiones, el empleo de herramientas e intervenciones efectivas que permitió obtener resultados positivos, crecimiento y cambio congruente con la ciencia de la complejidad. Pusieron a la vista un rol protagónico en la conducción de las unidades de salud y comunidades, demostrando capacidad, creatividad, conocimiento, actitudes positivas en la aplicación del proceso administrativo, pues respondieron de forma oportuna a circunstancias y escenarios en la pandemia.


INTRODUCTION: The World Health Organization (WHO) declared COVID-19 a pandemic. Therefore, together with the public health authorities, measures were adopted to contain the outbreak, they issued recommendations for the reorganization and progressive expansion of Health Services in response to the pandemic. This made it possible to make visible the leadership of the nurses, commitment to making autonomous decisions; It also required planning, organizing, directing, implementing, measuring and strengthening the quality of care and patient safety. OBJECTIVE: Know the meaning of leadership in the complexity of the Covid 19 pandemic experienced by Ecuadorian nurses from the perspective of the nursing coordinators. METHODOLOGY: A phenomenological notion approach was the path for this research, built as an analysis of the phenomena or the significant experiences of Husserl's though philosophical reflection. The key actors selected within the inclusion criteria were three nurses from the most important hospitals in Ecuador. The instrument applied was an in-depth interview of each of them. RESULTS: The nurses exercised participatory leadership based on the complexity theory model, compared to health institutions, in six fundamental axes: human talent, training, teamwork, regulatory design, working conditions, management of psychological and health conditions. CONCLUSIONS: The study showed that in the Ecuadorian case, the theoretical approach to complexity leadership was ratified with decision-making, the use of effective tools and interventions that allowed obtaining positive results, growth and change consistent with the science of complexity. They put out a leading role in the management of health units and communities, demonstrating capacity, creativity, knowledge, positive attitudes in the application of the administrative process, since they responded in a timely manner to circumstances and scenarios in the pandemic.

ABSTRACT

Aim: This study was conducted to determine the bond strength between zirconia ceramic and resin luting cement according to the type of surface treatment applied. Methods: Sixty zirconia cylinders measuring 4 x 4 mm were manufactured and distributed into five experimental groups and a control group (n = 10): G1 - sandblasting with 110 µm aluminum oxide; G2 - sandblasting with 30 µm Rocatec Soft®; G3 - Er:YAG laser irradiation at 400 mJ; G4 - Er:YAG laser combined with sandblasting with aluminum oxide; G5 - Er:YAG laser combined with sandblasting with Rocatec Soft®; G6 - no treatment (Control). The zirconia cylinders were bonded in the center of composite resin cylinders (6 mm diameter) using RelyX Ultimate® cement. Shear strength was measured after thermocycling (6000 cycles and 5-55° C). Data were analyzed using one-way ANOVA and Tukey's post-hoc with a 5% significance level. Results: Group 4 had a significantly higher shear strength than all the other groups, except Group 1. Group 3 had a significantly lower shear strength compared with Groups 1 and 4. Conclusion: Sandblasting with 110µm aluminum oxide particles after laser irradiation may be an effective zirconia surface treatment. The use of Er: YAG laser alone is not effective at increasing the bond between resin cement and zirconia

ABSTRACT

This study aimed to evaluate the safety of the hydroalcoholic extract (HE) of Syzygium cumini (L.) Skeels, Myrtaceae, leaves in rodents. Acute toxicity was evaluated through the determination of a LD50 in mice and rats (up to 14 days). In mice, the oral administration (p.o.) of the HE (0.1 at 6 g/kg) did not cause any death. When administered by intraperitoneal route (i.p.) the HE (0.1 at 1 g/kg) caused death of the animals (LD50 of 0.489 g/kg). In rats, the HE (0.5, 1 and 2 g/kg, p.o.) did not cause any death, while by i.p., only the 2 g/kg dose was lethal to 67 percent of the animals. To evaluate chronic toxicity, groups of rats daily received the HE (0.05, 0.1 and 0.25 g/kg) through p.o., during 30, 90 or 180 days and the effects on behavior, body weight, feed consumed were measured. Histology, hematology and biochemical parameters were measured at the end of the treatment. After a 30-day treatment, the HE caused changes in some biochemical parameters. Histological examination of the liver, kidneys, lungs, heart, stomach, intestine and pancreas showed normal architecture suggesting no morphological disturbances. These data may mean that the HE of S. cumini does not exert acute or chronic toxic effects by oral administration.

ABSTRACT

Santa Catarina, foram analisados quanto ao conteúdo total de polifenóis e capacidade antioxidante. Foram utilizados sistemas solventes aquosos a 50% (v/v) de metanol, etanol e acetona acidificados (HCl 0,1%). O conteúdo de fenólicos totais foi determinado pela técnica de Folin-Ciocalteu e a atividade antioxidante por meio de técnicas de seqüestro de radicais livres ABTS e DPPH e pelo método do ß-caroteno/ácido linoléico. A acetona apresentou maior conteúdo de polifenóis totais, atingindo em peso seco, 7852mg GAE/100g na variedade Pinot Noir e 5334mg GAE/100g na variedade Regente. A atividade antioxidante média das variedades Pinot Noir e Regente foi, respectivamente, de 477 e 419μMol TEAC/g pela técnica ABTS e 480 e 479μMol TEAC/g pela técnica DPPH. No ensaio da co-oxidação do ß−caroteno/ácido linoléico os extratos etanólicos apresentaram maior sinergismo quando associados ao BHT, com 92,6% e 90,9% de inibição da oxidação com 200μL para a variedade Regente e Pinot Noir, semelhante ao BHT com 200μL, apresentando 91,7% de inibição da oxidação. Os extratos de bagaço de uva demonstraram potencial antioxidante, atuando como inibidores de radicais livres ou em sinergismo com o antioxidante sintético.


Grape (Vitis vinifera) bagasse from Pinot Noir and Regente varieties, collected in Videira - Santa Catarina, were evaluated in order to determine the total polyphenol contents and antioxidant capacity. Acidified (HCl 0.1%) aqueous solvent systems of 50% (v/v) methanol, ethanol, and acetone were used. Total polyphenol contents were determined by Folin-Ciocalteu technique, and antioxidant activity was assessed by means of ABTS, DPPH, and β-carotene/linoleic acid techniques. Acetone presented the highest total polyphenol contents, reaching in a dry matter the concentrations of 7.852mg GAE/100g in Pinot Noir variety and 5.334mg GAE/100g in Regente variety. The average antioxidant activity of Pinot Noir and Regente varieties was of 477 and 419μMol TEAC/g by means of ABTS technique, respectively, and 480 and 479μMol TEAC/g, respectively when these samples were analyzed by DPPH technique. From β-carotene/linoleic acid technique analysis, it was observed that the ethanolic extracts showed higher synergism when associated to BHT, presenting 92.6% and 90.9% of oxidation inhibition with 200μL for Regente and Pinot Noir varieties, which were similar to BHT with 200μL, presenting 91.7% of oxidation inhibition. Extracts from grape bagasse demonstrated a potential antioxidant activity, functioning as inhibitors of free-radicals, or in synergism with a synthetic antioxidant.

ABSTRACT

La presente investigación fue objteto de correcciones y modificaciones inumerables hasta obtener el informe final del cual presentamos este breve resumen. Para realizar nuestro trabajo investigativo escogimos el tema: influencia del camal en la higiéne del barrio Cachaco de Sangolquí, debido a que creemos que las condiciones ambientales influyen en la salud de los pobladores del barrio. El barrio Cachaco, es un barrio típico de la ciudad de Sangolquí, no solo por la presencia del camal, sino por tener un río en el que se refleja un vez más que el hombre es el único ser que destruye su propio habitat evenenándolo. Al determinar la influencia del camal en el barrio Cachaco y su higiene, y por ende la influencia directa en la salud de sus moradores, aspiramos a que los resultados obtenidos con la investigación, sean tomados en cuenta por parte de las autoridades municipales, personal de salud y por la misma comunidad para que se busquen soluciones que permitan erradicar los problemas detectados. En el marco de referencia hemos realizado una síntesis descriptiva acerca de lo que es Sangolquí, sus datos históricos, demográficos poblacionales, datos de educación, producción, vivienda, instituciones de salud, etc. A continuacíon presentamos un estracto acerca de los servicios básicos que debe recibir una cominidad por parte las autoridades seccionales haciendo una relación con los servicios que recibe el barrio Cachaco, basándonos en la observación directa y en entrevistas realizadas tanto a los moradores del barrio como a las autoridades municipales. Luego presentamos el barrio Cachaco, líómites, datos de población, vivienda, vías de comunicación, etc. Terminanos nuestro marco de referencia elaborando una síntesis acerca de lo que es un camal ideal y lo que es el camal del barrio Cachaco para obtener una visión general de la influencia de éste en la higiene del barrio. Todos los aspectos rescatados del marco de referencia y de las múltiples visitas al barrio y entrevistas informales con sus habitantes nos permiten plantearnos cuatro hipótesis: 1. la presencia del camal y sus condiciones higiénicas determinan las condiciones higiénicas del barrio. 2. Los servicios que proporciona el Municipio de Sangolquí al barrio Cachaco influyen en sus condiciones higiénicas. 3. Las Prácticas sanitarias de la población del barrio Cachaco agravan las condiciones higiénicas del mismo...
