FISH SPECIES DIVERSITY OF KOLLERU LAKE AT RAMSAR OF ELURU DISTRICT ANDHRA PRADESH, INDIA

During the study period we recorded 29 species The fish production plays a significant role in the human economy. India has vast potential for development of inland fisheries. In the present study an attempt has been made to evaluate the physico-chemical characteristic features and fish fauna diversity of Kolleru Lake Eluru District. It proposed to enhancement of fish production in a sub urban perennial water body in Eluru district of Andhra Pradesh. The study was conducted during May 2021 to April 2022. The study revealed that different regions of the tank receive variable precipitation and hence meteorological factors governing the physico-chemical properties of the tank which in turn influence planktonic diversity and so that all the physico-chemical and biological factors have direct influence on the fish production. The present study, it observed that all the physico-chemical parameters are at nearly permissible limit at all the 3 identified stations. It is estimated that the fish fauna of Kolleru Lake consists of 29 species belonging to 12 families. Among the collections 10 species of Cypriniformes, order Siluriformes consists of 5 species, Channiformes consists of 05 species, Perciformes 03 species, and Osteoglossiformes 01 species. Therefore, it is suggested that the immediate measures may be to avoid further contamination of this Lake which has been started contaminated due to anthropological activities. Finally it may be concluded that the Kolleru Lake is rich in fish diversity and is still in a position to set a good example of conservation of native fish fauna by the sustainable management practices.

Características generales y esquemas de tratamiento en pacientes con diabetes tipo 2, participantes en el estudio IDMPS (International Diabetes Management Practice Study) en Costa Rica / Basic characteristics and treatment regimens in people with type 2 diabetes who participated in the International Diabetes Management Practices Study in Costa Rica

Antecedentes: el International Diabetes Management Practice Study es un estudio mundial, observacional, que tiene como propósito determinar el estándar de tratamiento de los pacientes con diabetes mellitus en las diferentes regiones del mundo, y la adherencia a las guías internacionales con respecto al abordaje y manejo de estos pacientes. A nivel mundial, 15016 pacientes con diabetes tipo 2 participaron en el estudio, previamente publicado por Ringborg et al. en la revista International Journal of Clinical Practice, en 2009. La siguiente publicación corresponde a la segunda etapa del estudio que analizó a los pacientes participantes de Costa Rica. Resultados: en Costa Rica se valoró 49 pacientes de la consulta privada de 5 médicos endocrinólogos, en un periodo que comprendió del 22 de marzo al 24 de abril de 2007. El valor promedio de la glicemia en ayunas para los pacientes fue de 140,45mg/dL ± 56,3. Con respecto al control glicémico, el estudio encontró que el 60% de los participantes presentó una HbA1c > 7%, y el 17,5% de los pacientes presentó HbA1c mayor al 9%. Todos los pacientes valorados estaban recibiendo algún tipo de terapia farmacológica: el 63,6% de los pacientes con hipoglicemiantes orales, y el 45,5% de los pacientes tratados con insulina alcanzó la meta de HbA1c < 7%. Solo el 22,2% de los pacientes tratados con la combinación de hipoglicemiantes orales más insulina, llegó a la meta. Conclusión: el estudio muestra como la mayoría de los pacientes (60%) no logra alcanzar la meta de un adecuado control glicémico (HbA1c < 7%), aunque se ha establecido que un adecuado control glicémico reduce la incidencia de complicaciones micro y macrovasculares. Debe haber un mayor énfasis en la atención intensiva para mejorar el manejo de los pacientes con diabetes tipo 2 en Costa Rica.

Background: The International Diabetes Management Practice Study was a worldwide observational study with the aim to determine the standard of care of diabetic patients in different regions around the world and the adherence to the international guidelines regarding diabetic care and management. Around the world 15,016 patients with type 2 diabetes were enrolled in this study, published previously by Ringborg et al, in the International Journal of Clinical Practice in 2009. The following study corresponds to the sub study which analyzed the patients who participated in Costa Rica. Results: In Costa Rica 49 type 2 diabetic patients were recruited from the private practice of 5 endocrinologists from March 22nd to April 24th, 2007. The mean fasting blood sugar value of the patients studied was of 140.45mg/dL ± 56.3. With respect to glycemic control, the study showed that 60% of patients had an HbA1c > 7% and 17.5% of them had a value greater than 9%. All the patients who were evaluated had some type of pharmacologic agent in their therapeutic regimen. Around sixty-three percent (63.6%) of the patients who were treated with oral antidiabetic agents and 45.5% with insulin alone reached the target of an HbA1c < 7%, respectively. To a lesser extent (22.2%) patients who were treated with both types of medications reached that goal. Conclusion: In this study the majority of patients (60%), did not meet criteria for an adequate glycemic control (HbA1c < 7%) despite the broad scientific evidence available which demonstrates that an adequate glycemic control effectively reduces micro and macrovascular complications. More emphasis needs to be added to improve treatment for patients with type 2 diabetes in Costa Rica.

Crescimento e produção de antúrio submetido a diferentes intensidades de desfolha / Growth and production of anthurium submitted to different defoliation intensities

O objetivo do presente trabalho foi avaliar o crescimento e a produção de Anthurium andraeanum 'Apalai' submetido a diferentes intensidades de desfolha no Vale do Ribeira, SP. Foram utilizadas mudas micropropagadas dessa espécie, as quais foram plantadas em canteiros construídos sob telado coberto com tela de náilon preta, com malha que proporciona 70 por cento de sombreamento, no espaçamento 0,40x0,40m. O experimento foi conduzido em delineamento de blocos casualizados em parcelas subdivididas, com dezesseis repetições. O efeito da desfolha foi avaliado na parcela e o efeito do tempo após a desfolha na subparcela. As diferentes intensidades de desfolha consistiram em plantas com três, quatro e cinco folhas e plantas sem desfolha, e o tempo após a desfolha, as avaliações realizadas em 2006 e 2007. Ocorreu um aumento na área das folhas individuais em plantas mantidas com quatro e cinco folhas, proporcional à intensidade de desfolha, que pode ser relacionado a uma tentativa de compensação da área foliar perdida. A desfolha com a manutenção de três, quatro ou cinco folhas em plantas de antúrio 'Apalai' é prejudicial para o seu crescimento e produção.

The aim of this research was to evaluate the growth and yield of Anthurium andraeanum 'Apalai' submitted to different defoliation intensities in Vale do Ribeira, SP. In order to develop this research, micropropagated seedlings of this species were used, planted in beds built under a roof covered with a black nylon screen, with a mesh that provides 70 percent shading, spaced 0.40x0.40m apart. The experiment was conducted in a randomized block design in split splot with sixteen replicates.The defoliation effect was evaluated in the whole plots and the effect of time after defoliation was evaluated in the split-plots. The different defoliation intensities consisted of plants with three, four and five leaves and plants without defoliation, and the time after defoliation. Assessments were conducted in 2006 and 2007. There was an increase in the area of individual leaves in plants maintained with four and five leaves, proportional to the defoliation intensity, which may be related to an attempt to offset the lost leaf area. Defoliation caused by the maintenance of three, four or five leaves in anthurium 'Apalai' plants is detrimental to their growth and production.

Práticas de gestão de recursos humanos e resultados organizacionais: estudos, controvérsias teóricas e metodológicas / Human resource management practices and organizational performance: research, theoretical and methodological controversies

Analisa-se a relação entre práticas de gestão de recursos humanos (PGRH) e resultados organizacionais, a qual tem suscitado o interesse nas comunidades acadêmica e empresarial ao longo de várias décadas. Essa questão tem sido objeto de pesquisa em vários setores da atividade econômica em diversas regiões e países. Os resultados obtidos nesses estudos evidenciaram que o sucesso empresarial está relacionado com a forma como as empresas gerem as pessoas que nelas trabalham. Com base em uma análise de estudos publicados em diversas revistas internacionais nas duas últimas décadas, entre outras na Academy of Management Journal, salientamos as controvérsias teóricas e metodológicas que envolvem essa problemática, bem como as questões em aberto e as tendências da investigação. Sugerimos a adoção de enquadramentos teóricos multidisciplinares para explicar a relação entre PGRH e resultados organizacionais, o recurso e as metodologias qualitativas que permitam recolher informação sobre as PGRH de forma aprofundada. Sugerimos também que é conveniente pesquisar a possível existência de PGRH diferenciadas, no interior da empresa, para grupos funcionais distintos. Propomos ainda um conjunto de indicadores que podem ser utilizados no estudo sistemático das práticas de gestão de recursos humanos de elevado desempenho.

This article examines the impact of human resource management (HRM) practices on organizational performance, which in recent years has seen considerable amounts of research conducted in a number of business sectors in various regions and countries. In general, the studies conclude that there is a positive relationship between the quality of HRM practices and organizational performance. Based on empirical works on this issue, published in a variety of international journals in the last two decades, we analyze the theoretical and methodological controversy, open issues, and future research directions. We suggest: considering multidisciplinary approaches to explain the relationship between high-performance HRM practices and organizational performance; the adoption of qualitative methodologies in order to deepen our understanding of HRM practices in organizations; collecting different HRM data for distinct job groups within the same organization. We also suggest a scale that may be used for a systematic analysis of high-performance human resource management practices.

Assessment of Food Safety Management Performance for School Food Service in the Seoul Area / 대한지역사회영양학회지

Effective and systematic sanitation management programs are necessary to prevent foodborne disease outbreaks in school foodservice operations. The purpose of this study was to identify the elements to improve in order to ensure the safety of school food service by evaluating sanitation management practices implemented under HACCP-based programs. The survey was designed to assess the level of hygiene practices of school food service by using an inspection checklist of food hygiene and safety. Fifty-four school foodservice establishments considered as poor sanitation practice groups from two year inspections by Seoul Metropolitan Office of Education were surveyed from September to December in 2005. Inspection checklists consisted of seven categories with 50 checkpoints; facilities and equipment management, personal hygiene, ingredient control, process control, environmental sanitation management, HACCP system and safety management. Surveyed schools scored 68.0+/-12.42 points out of 100 on average. The average score (% of compliance) of each field was 10.7/20 (53.3%) for facilities and equipment management, 7.4/11 (67.2%) for personal hygiene, 7.4/11 (74.1%) for ingredient control, 22.4/32 (69.8%) for process control, 8.9/12 (73.8%) for environmental sanitation management, 4.2/7 (59.7%) for HACCP systems management, and 7.2/8 (89.7%) for safety management, respectively. The field to be improved first was the sanitation control of facilities and equipment. The elements to improve this category were unprofessional consultation for kitchen layout, improper compartment of the kitchen area, lacks of pest control, inadequate water supply, poor ventilation system, and insufficient hand-washing facilities. To elevate the overall performance level of sanitation management, prerequisite programs prior to HACCP plan implementation should be stressed on the school officials, specifically principals, for the integration of the system.

Managing Outpatients with Dyslipidemia in a University Hospital

BACKGROUND: We evaluated physician's management of hypercholesterolemia on the basis of the third Adult Treatment Panel (ATP III) report of the National Cholesterol Education Program. METHODS: The subjects were, 85 adult patients. The inclusion criteria were follows: outpatients with an initial total cholesterol level of > or =200 mg/dL or HDL-cholesterol or =160 mg/dL for patients with risk factor or =130 mg/dL for patients with risk factors > or =2; > or =100 mg/dL for patients with CHD or diabetes). In 59.5% of patients with undesirable LDL reported that they did not provide education about TLC and in 40.0% of patients with desirable LDL were provided prescription of LDL- lowering drugs from physicians. Physicians were more likely to prescribe if the patients had more risk factors (P=0.001) and educated patients when they prescribed them (P=0.049). However, physicians did not educate on TLC and did not recheck lipid profile prior to first prescription. CONCLUSION: The physicians did not follow the ATP III guideline for management of hypercholesterolemia. Barriers to comply with these guidelines and ways to eliminate barriers should be found.
