Dataset of conditions and characteristics of street vendors located in public spaces in Colombia.

The objective of this document is to introduce the datasets and the methods for accessing them, derived from the article "Social, commercial, and economic diversity. Poverty and expectations among street vendors in Florencia, Caquetá, Colombia." These datasets aim to provide insights into the conditions and characteristics of street vending in Colombia. The data collection process involved both mapping and personal surveys conducted on 190 street vendors. Additionally, practical recommendations are provided for tailoring the implementation of each survey instrument based on the specific attributes of the study's target demographic. The collected data holds the potential for comparative and longitudinal analyses, not only within different Colombian cities but also in cities worldwide facing similar circumstances to those of intermediate cities like Florencia. These datasets offer a valuable resource for understanding the dynamics of street vending and its implications, fostering more comprehensive research and informed policymaking.

Sineprapia, curiosa aportación técnica, del catedrático Sagarra Lascurain 1848-1924) para seccionar los tejidos / Sineprapia, curious technical contribution, of the surgical professor Sagarra Lascurain (1848-1924) to section the injuries

Muchas técnicas se han propuesto con el fin de optimizar la ejecución y desarrollo de los procedimientos en cirugía. Algunas sehan mantenido a lo largo del tiempo y otras han dejado de utilizarse por muy variados motivos. La sinemaprapía fue un procedimiento que, aunque si bien tuvo antecedentes de empleo por algunos autores de forma ocasional, fue el Catedrático de AnatomíaQuirúrgica, Operaciones, Apósitos y Vendajes Vicente Sagarra Lascurain el que la promociono a finales del siglo XIX y principiosdel XX. Quiso destacar en ella su sencillez de uso, eficacia en la diéresis y sobre todo la menor hemorragia que se producía en laherida quirúrgica en su aplicación, que la hacía muy adecuada su empleo en tejidos y órganos muy vascularizados, como eran lasamputaciones de pene y lengua. La técnica se empleo de una forma no muy extendida y con el paso del tiempo quedó olvidada. Eltrabajo trata de recordar desde el punto de vista histórico esta técnica, su empleo, las indicaciones de uso y referencia a sus resultados, profusamente publicados por su promotor. (AU)

Many techniques have been proposed in order to optimize the performance and development of surgical procedures. Some have beenmaintained over time and others have been discontinued for a variety of reasons. Sinemaprasía was a procedure, which althoughit had a history of employment by some authors occasionally, it was the Professor of Surgical Anatomy, Operations, Dressings andBandages, Vicente Sagarra Lascurain who promoted it at the end of the 19th and early 20th centuries. He wanted to highlight in itits simplicity of use, effectiveness in the umlaut and above all the less bleeding that occurred in the surgical wound in its application,which made it very suitable for use in highly vascular tissues and organs, such as penile amputations. and tongue. The techniquewas used in a not very widespread way and with the passage of time it was forgotten. The work tries to remember from the historicalpoint of view this technique, its use, the indications for use and reference to its results, widely published by its promoter. (AU)
