ABSTRACT

Los avances científicos han facilitado la difusión del conocimiento, encontrándose los más recientes hallazgos rápidamente en Internet, esto ha producido la migración de las revistas desde lo impreso a lo digital, pero este proceso no siempre se realiza adecuadamente, por lo que actualmente existen revistas, y en consecuencia sus publicaciones, que no se logran encontrar en los buscadores académicos, lo que se debe al uso de los softwares inadecuados o en su defecto a una mala configuración de los que se han implementado. En esta línea la recomendación es usar Open Journal System, un software diseñado para la publicación científica, pero varias revistas usan gestores de contenido como WordPress, por su facilidad de implementación y personalización aun cuando estos presenten limitaciones en el aspecto editorial. A continuación, se expone un método para la correcta indexación de revistas confeccionadas en WordPress en el buscador Google Scholar.


Scientific advances have facilitated the dissemination of knowledge, and the latest discoveries can be easily found on the Internet. This has produced the migration of journals from print to digital; however, this process is not always done properly since there are journals, and consequently their publications, which are not currently found in academic search engines due to the inappropriate use of software or otherwise to a misconfiguration of those that have been implemented. In this line, the recommendation is to use Open Journal System, a software designed for scientific publication; on the other hand, several journals use content manager systems such as WordPress because of its easy implementation and customization even when they present editorial constrains. The following is a method for the correct indexing of journals created in WordPress in the Google Scholar search engine.

ABSTRACT

Objective To establish a radioactive waste sorting process. Methods According to the current laws, regulations, standards, waste minimization requirements, and domestic good practices, the non-radioactive waste and radioactive waste were distinguished, and the radioactive waste was further sorted according to the different subsequent disposal methods of radioactive waste. The precautions for each step of the sorting process were described in detail. Results This process has been used in sorting decommissioned radioactive waste in an urban waste repository and achieved good results. Approximately 83 tons of radioactive waste and 1173 waste radioactive sources were sorted. Conclusion Good radioactive waste sorting technology can not only distinguish between radioactive and non-radioactive waste, but also facilitate the subsequent disposal of radioactive waste, which minimizes radioactive waste and protects staff and the environment.

ABSTRACT

Biobanks are set to become the norm. The explosion of new and powerful technologies like genomics and other multiomics has catapulted research from individual laboratories to multi-institutional and international partners. Today, with increasing life span, and the rising incidence of brain diseases, Brain Banks have become an invaluable source for unravelling the pathogenesis of several brain disorders, and develop effective therapies. The article briefly reviews the evolution of brain banking, rise of global networks, with a brief overview of steps involved from donor recruitment, protocols of processing, storage, annotation, and tissue distribution. The ethics of biobanking is one of the most controversial issues in bioethics, the key issues being consent, confidentiality, and commercialisation. Regulatory authorities in different countries and in India, the Indian Council of Medical Research has taken a lead to formulate new ethical guidelines for research involving human participants protecting rights, and well-being of research participants. Although brain banks have been established in the 1960s, in India, the first Brain Bank was established in 1995 at the National Institute of Mental Health and Neurosciences, Bengaluru. Now a network with two more Brain banks is being established in the country. The challenges and benefits of establishing the first Brain Bank as a National Research Facility in India is shared. For optimising available resources and promote brain banking, it is essential for medical professionals, and the public to perceive the crucial advantage in conversion of biological waste into invaluable resources for neuroscience. This will be the greatest “gift of hope” that we can offer for the future generations to overcome hitherto untreatable disorders such as dementias.

ABSTRACT

Para la organización de bases de datos de Neurociencias se han realizado diversos proyectos en países desarrollados, entre estos los repositorios de datos. El Centro de Neurociencias de Cuba es la institución rectora de los estudios neurocientíficos en el país. Debido a los volúmenes de datos que se manejan en su repositorio se dificulta el manejo estadístico y la obtención de reportes. El repositorio carece de herramientas para el análisis estadístico del universo de datos almacenado, dificultando la toma de decisiones sobre los diferentes tipos de datos. En base a las deficiencias identificadas se decidió desarrollar un grupo de funcionalidades de estadísticas y reportes que permiten la extracción de información útil desde diferentes perspectivas, beneficiando a los científicos de neurociencias en el estudio y aplicación de escenarios para el tratamiento de los datos almacenados. Se realizó un análisis del estado del arte de las herramientas que permiten generar reportes y estadísticas de los datos almacenados en un repositorio o en una base de datos. Para el desarrollo se utilizaron tecnologías y herramientas como Visual Paradigm para el modelado, PostgreSQL para el manejo de los datos, Django como framework de desarrollo y el lenguaje de desarrollo Python. El resultado obtenido propiciará una herramienta con características similares a sus homólogas internacionales(AU)


Various projects have been carried out in developed countries for the organization of Neuroscience databases, including data repositories. The Cuban Neuroscience Center is the leading institution for neuroscientific studies in the country. Due to the volumes of data that are managed in its repository, statistical management and obtaining reports are difficult. The repository lacks tools for statistical analysis of the universe of data stored, making it difficult to make decisions about the different types of data. Based on the deficiencies identified, it was decided to develop a group of statistical and reporting functionalities that allow the extraction of useful information from different perspectives, benefiting neuroscience scientists in the study and application of scenarios for the treatment of stored data. An analysis of the state of the art of the tools that allow generating reports and statistics of the data stored in a repository or in a database was carried out. For the development, technologies and tools such as Visual Paradigm for modeling, PostgreSQL for data management, Django as a development framework and the Python development language were used. The result obtained will provide a tool with similar characteristics to its international counterparts(AU)

ABSTRACT

The rapid growth of Internet and increasing interest in its usage has led to an acceleration of digitisation of printed documents and making available born digital documents online. Zambia's research output is primarily in print and not much is disseminated globally. It is against this background that innovations for digital libraries have been started in several African countries, including Zambia. The overall objective of the African Digital Health Library Zambia was to increase the health content that is held in the University of Zambia Institutional Repository by digitising publications produced by various institutions in Zambia, with a vision of capturing over 6,000 current and historical materials. Equipment was acquired and sensitisation meetings were held with various stake holders to ensure successful project initiation and sustainability. Scanning and uploading of documents was done after a technical expert had trained both Library and Information Technology staff on Dspace software. Marketing the digital library within the institutions and nationally was also conducted. In June 2018 there were 266,838 downloads of materials. Challenges of collecting required materials from relevant stake holders and convincing them to make available their content were encountered in the process. Enhanced collaboration and sensitisation of stakeholders were essential in ensuring the successful implementation of the project.
