ABSTRACT

The amino acid composition of plant-based proteins consists of twenty individual amino acids and is expressedas the ratio of each of them to the sum of all (expressed as percentage). Sixteen of twenty amino acids included inthe composition of plant-based proteins are most effectively determined on the liquid chromatographers. Thetechnology of high-performance liquid chromatography is to a certain extent costly both in time and in samplepreparation, which makes this method unsuitable for mass analysis; for example, for evaluating a breedingmaterial. In this case, the suggested method based on scanning in the near infrared radiation band is moreefficient. Despite the fact, that IR-scanners are able to determine a sufficiently large number of components onthe basis of one calibration equation, a constant correction is required when it is needed to determine thecomposition of amino acids and reduce it to a percentage ratio. The options for creating calibration equations(models) for determining the amino acid composition of soybean proteins for computer programs (Nir 42, ISI)which provide the operation of IR-scanners, such as NIR-4250 or FOSS NIRSistem 5000 (FOSS Analytical A/S,Denmark) are considered in the article. It was found that when creating calibration equations, it is most correctto set for each amino acid its mass content (g per 100 g of protein), and not the relative portion (in %), as it hasalso been done in other methods described in the literature.

ABSTRACT

Se construyeron e instalaron en coordinación con la UTEC, 3 estaciones de monitoreo de calidad del aire en ITCA-FEPADE Santa Tecla, San Miguel y La Unión. Estos dispositivos miden el nivel de contaminación del aire por material particulado de 2.5 y 10 micras de diámetro en las zonas donde están instalados. ITCA-FEPADE desarrolló un software de interpretación y predicción de dato de contaminación ambiental con Big Data y Machine Learning. Los datos de las estaciones son capturados en formato Big Data, los cuales son procesados por medio de una plataforma web diseñada, en donde se grafica el estado de la calidad del aire según la zona seleccionada. Se desarrolló además, un algoritmo de Machine Learning, el cual realiza una predicción de la calidad del aire para el término de un mes. Según aumente la cantidad de muestras así será el potencial de predicción para un día, semana, mes o año. La aplicación de los resultados de este proyecto con la construcción de más estaciones de monitoreo, permitirá lograr una cobertura a nivel nacional y medir con más detalle la calidad del aire que se respira en El Salvador, logrando así mejorar la toma de decisiones respecto al combate de la contaminación del aire y de las enfermedades respiratorias


In coordination with Universidad Tecnológica de El Salvador (UTEC), 3 air quality monitoring stations were built and installed at Escuela Especializada en Ingeniería ITCA-FEPADE Santa Tecla, San Miguel and La Unión. These devices measure the level of air pollution by particulate matter of 2.5 and 10 microns in diameter in the areas where they are installed. ITCA-FEPADE developed a software for interpretation and prediction of environmental pollution data with Big Data and Machine Learning. The data from the stations is captured in Big Data format, which is processed through a designed web platform, where the state of air quality is plotted according to the selected area. In addition, a Machine Learning algorithm was developed, which makes a prediction of air quality for the term of one month. As the number of samples increases, so will the prediction potential for a day, week, month or year. The application of the results of this project with the construction of more monitoring stations, achieve national coverage and measure in more detail the quality of the air that is breathed in El Salvador, thus improving decision-making regarding the combat of air pollution and respiratory diseases

ABSTRACT

Abstract This study aimed to show, by empirical evidence, that using different techniques of data analysis can contribute to the production of complementary knowledge about complex phenomena, such as emotions. The article discusses the results derived from using two textual analysis techniques and their articulation. Its main contribution is methodological, specifically in qualitative analysis supported by software. The study included 517 artists working in various artistic sectors, such as music and theater. ALCESTE and ATLAS.ti were used in the analysis. Results suggest convergences or complementarities between these two techniques. While ATLAS.ti allows for a dialogue between data and theory, through open coding, for better alignment between categorical theoretical system and data, ALCESTE organizes data in classes or categories, through calculations of word co-occurrence, which requires a theoretical frame to give them meaning.


Resumo O objetivo deste estudo foi trazer evidências empíricas de que o uso de técnicas de análises de dados variadas pode contribuir para produzir conhecimento complementar sobre fenômenos complexos, como o das emoções. O artigo discute os resultados oriundos da utilização de duas técnicas de análise textual e sua articulação. Sua principal contribuição é metodológica, especificamente em análise qualitativa com suporte de softwares. Participaram do estudo 517 artistas que trabalhavam em diversos setores artísticos, como música e teatro. O ALCESTE e o ATLAS.ti foram usados nas análises. Os resultados sugerem convergências ou complementaridades entre essas duas técnicas. Enquanto o ATLAS.ti permite estabelecer um diálogo dos dados com a teoria, pela via da codificação aberta, para melhor alinhamento entre sistema teórico categorial e dados, o ALCESTE organiza a base dados em classes ou categorias, mediante cálculos de coocorrência de palavras, que necessitam de frame teórico para lhes dar sentido.

ABSTRACT

Introducción: La literatura pedagógica propone los juegos serios (serious games) como herramientas efectivas para el aprendizaje; sin embargo, los estudia como si fueran productos homogéneos que se diferencian solo por la temática. Así, sus diseños no se discuten y se dejan a la discreción de cada profesor-creador. Objetivo: Establecer la relación entre la efectividad en los resultados de aprendizaje y los criterios de diseño de los juegos para la educación médica. Métodos: Revisión sistemática de la literatura de juegos médicos, publicados entre 2011 y 2015 en inglés, español y portugués, siguiendo pautas de la Colaboración Cochrane. Sobre la base de la literatura, se construyó un sistema con 15 criterios de diseños para evaluar los juegos y se estableció una comparación con la efectividad reportada. Resultados: En los 26 artículos finales revisados los resultados de aprendizaje fueron positivos, en general, y los criterios de diseño de los juegos sí afectaron la efectividad en los resultados de aprendizaje. El grado de estos efectos y el nivel de evidencia científica variaron según los criterios de diseño. Conclusiones: La relación encontrada entre el diseño del juego y la efectividad en el aprendizaje debe conducir a desarrollos de juegos serios que potencien las propuestas ludificadas con un uso consciente de los criterios técnicos(AU)


Introduction: The pedagogical literature proposes serious games as effective tools for learning; however, it studies them as if they were homogeneous products that differ only by theme. Thus, their designs are not discussed and are left to the consideration of each teacher-creator. Objective: To establish the relationship between effectiveness in learning outcomes and the criteria for the design of games for medical education. Methods: Systematic review of the literature about medical games and published between 2011 and 2015, in English, Spanish and Portuguese, following the Cochrane Collaboration guidelines. Based on the literature, a system was constructed with 15 design criteria for assessing the games, and a comparison was established with the reported effectiveness. Results: In the 26 final articles that were reviewed, the learning outcomes were generally positive, and the game design criteria did affect the effectiveness of the learning outcomes. The degree of these effects and the level of scientific evidence varied according to the design criteria. Conclusions: The relationship found between game design and learning effectiveness should lead to developments of serious game that enhance the proposals made with a conscious usage of technical criteria(AU)

ABSTRACT

PURPOSE: To determine the accuracy of automated computer aided volumetry for simulated small pulmonary nodules at computed tomography using various types of phantoms MATERIALS AND METHODS: Three sets of synthetic nodules (small, calcified and those adjacent to vessels) were studied. The volume of the nodules in each set was already known, and using multi-slice CT, volumetric data for each nodule was acquired from the three-dimensional reconstructed image. The volume was calculated by applying three different threshold values using Rapidia(R) software (3D-Med, Seoul, Korea). RESULTS: Relative errors in the measured volume of synthetic pulmonary nodules were 17.3, 2.9, and 11.5% at -200, -400, and -600 HU, respectively, and there was good correlation between true volume and measured volume at -400 HU (r=0.96, p<0.001). For calcified nodules, relative errors in measured volume were 10.9, 5.3, and 16.5% at -200, -400, and -600 HU, respectively, and there was good correlation between true volume and measured volume at -400 HU (r=1.03, p<0.001). In cases involving synthetic nodules adjacent to vessels, relative errors were 4.6, 16.3, and 31.2 % at -200, -400, and -600 HU, respectively. There was good correlation between true volume and measured volume at -200 HU (r=1.1, p<0.001). CONCLUSION: Using computer-aided volumetry, the measured volumes of synthetic nodules correlated closely with their true volume. Measured volumes were the same at each threshold level, regardless of window setting.

ABSTRACT

This study was designed to develop and validate a computerized exercise intervention program using the transtheoretical model (TTM) for Korean patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus (DM). This computerized program was web-based and developed by designing a flow chart. An expert group (n=24), who validated the content of the computerized program, produced a mean score for the evaluation scale of 4.25 (SD .56). Of the patients (n=28) with type 2 DM who participated in clinical validity testing of the program, the mean score for the satisfaction scale was 4.82 (SD .12). In the validation of the program, significant differences between baseline and after-intervention were observed in the stage of readiness for exercise (Z=-3.78, p < 0.001), physical activity (Z=-2.33, p < 0.05), blood glucose profiles [FBS (Z=-2.84, p < 0.01), pc 2hr. glucose (Z=-2.33, p < 0.05), HbA1c (Z=-2.77, p < 0.01) ], and VO2max (Z=-2.52, p < 0.01). The study confirmed that the computerized program could be used to construct a database and continue to provide follow-up intervention for patients in all stages.

ABSTRACT

O objetivo desse estudo foi construir e avaliar um programa computadorizado de exercícios de formulação de diagnóstico de enfermagem pela web. O programa computadorizado foi construído com base em estudo de caso escrito previamente desenvolvido no modelo analítico de raciocínio diagnóstico. Esse programa foi comparado ao método tradicional de aplicação do estudo de caso (lápis e papel) junto a 17 estudantes de graduação em enfermagem (7 no grupo-controle e 10 no experimental), 82,4% mulheres e idade média 21,5 ('+ OU -' 1,4) anos. Foram realizados pré-testes em que se avaliou o desempenho dos alunos em formular diagnósticos com base em descrições escritas de pacientes. Aos 10 alunos do grupo-experimental foi solicitado avaliar doze caracteríticas do programa relacionadas ao seu conteúdo e interface do programa. Os testes de Mann-Whitney mostraram que os dois grupos tiveram desempenhos semelhantes em formular diagnósticos antes (p=0,536), durante (p=0,813) e depois (p=0,193; p=0,536) da utilização do programa computadorizado. A maioria das características do programa foi avaliada "adequada" ou "quase adequada" pelos alunos que fizeram sugestões para melhorá-lo. Diante desse conjunto de resultados, podemos afirmar que a realização de exercício de formulação de diagnóstico no programa construído é tão eficaz como em lápis e papel. A viabilização das sugestões dos alunos e a inclusão de outras descrições de pacientes no programa fornecerão instrumento útil para o ensino e a pesquisa sobre o raciocínio diagnóstico de enfermagem.


The present study was intended to construct and evaluate a computer program presenting exercises directed to the formulation of nursing diagnoses using the Web network services. The computer program was based in a written case study previously developed within the diagnostic reasoning analytical model. The program was afterwards compared to the tradicional (paper and pencil) method by presenting a case study to 17 undergraduation nursing students (7 control group students and 10 in the experimental one), 82,4% female nursing students, mean age range 21,5 ('+ OU -' 1,4). Either pre and post tests were carried out in order to evaluate the students' ability in formulating diagnoses based in the patients' written descriptions. The ten experimental group students were asked to evaluate 12 characteristics related to the program's content and interface. The Mann-Whitney tests showed that both groups presented similar performances when formulating diagnoses before (p=0.536), during(p=0.813) and after (p=0.193; p=0.536) the computer program utilization. Most of the program's characteristics were evaluated by the students as being "adequate" or "almost adequate", and suggestions for its improvement were made. Based in these result, it should be emphasized that exersices related to diagnoses formulation using a constructed computer program is a effective as the traditional paper-and pencil one. The students' feasible suggestions and the program of other descriptions made by patients shall be able to provide a useful instrument either for the teaching and research directed towards the diagnostic reasoning in nursing.
