“Mexico half way of making”: Carlos Chávez and the foundation of the National Institute of Fine Arts (INBA) (1945-1947)

Ana Garduño (2023, [Artículo, Artículo])

I am focusing on the interaction between a cultural agent, Carlos Chávez, and the government elite, related to the circumstances of the enunciation of a public and official organism, INBA (The National Institute of Fine Arts), because I assume that political relations are fundamental to understand a process that endorsed the official culture as an appendage of politics. In spite of its relevance, this subject has not been studied. Based on archival documentation (at the National Archive of Mexico and the archive of INBA) I am examining the cultural policies derived from the foundation of INBA. Due to the current pandemic situation, it was not possible to consult other documental sources. I am formulating that the concept of “high culture” was at the core of a wider conflict between governmental interests and those of representative social actors, and I conclude that this obstacle would have conferred a major political and symbolical importance to the Institute, and consequently, would restrict its budget.

Propuesta para estandarizar la técnica de aspiración de secreciones en pacientes con intubación orotraqueal

LIZBETH FITZ BELTRÁN (2023, [Otro, Trabajo terminal, especialidad])

La aspiración de secreciones es una técnica que realiza el personal de enfermería que consiste en

la extracción de secreciones traqueobronquiales con ayuda de un sistema de presión en pacientes

intubados Este procedimiento en este tipo de pacientes debe ser totalmente estéril y adecuado

antes, durante y después de la aspiración, ya que nuestro objetivo es proporcionar al paciente un

estado de bienestar y confort, mantener la permeabilidad de la vía aérea y un adecuado intercambio

gaseoso, estimular el reflejo tusígeno y evitar el desarrollo de una infección respiratoria debido al

acúmulo de secreciones.

El siguiente trabajo es un estudio de tipo cuantitativo con método observacional y de corte

transversal, se espera que el personal de enfermería de las áreas donde se encuentran pacientes con

intubación orotraqueal unifiquen conocimientos sobre la técnica de aspiración de secreciones con

una propuesta de capacitación sobre la técnica de aspiración de secreciones , se tomara una muestra

de conveniencia de 47 enfermeros de los servicios de UCIA A, sala de hombres, sala de mujeres

2 y urgencias . Se realizará la capacitación al personal de enfermería sobre la técnica de aspiración

de secreciones tanto sistema abierto como cerrado, esto ayudará al personal de enfermería a realizar

correctamente la técnica de aspiración de secreciones, ayudando tanto al paciente como a la

institución ya que se evitarán complicaciones hacia el paciente, así como, disminución en estancia

hospitalaria.

Secretion aspiration is a technique that nurses doing to extract tracheal secretion with the help of

pressure system in mecanical ventilation patientes. With this kind of patient, the secretion

aspiration procedure must be sterile technique before during and after, because our goal is get to

the patient a well-being state and confort, holding permeability on the airway and gas exchange

suitable, increased sputum expectoration and avoid respiratory tract infections.

This Study is an observational research with cross-sectional transverse design, with this protocole

hope that nurses that care these kind of patients, would homogen their knowledge abote secretion

aspiration technique, with a training program, about the correct secretion aspiration technique.

It will take a convenience sampling for 47 nurses in the adult intensive care unit, man united,

women unit 2 and emergency. It will be carried out, capacitation for nurses about secretion

aspiration technique, open system and close system, with the purpose to help nurses doing correctly

that technique. This action will benefit patients and decreasing their hospital stay.

Estandarización de nombres comunes de plantas yucatanenses, parte 1: mayas y yucatecos

Jorge Carlos Trejo Torres (2023, [Artículo])

Nombrar plantas es una necesidad para ocuparnos de ellas. En casos afortunados, una especie tiene un solo nombre común, aunque frecuentemente las especies tienen más de un nombre. En la península de Yucatán, los nombres en lengua maya son complejos en escritura y pronunciación. Aunque la estandarización de su escritura se ha trabajado, hoy día es común ver nombres mayas de plantas escritos sin reglas. Entonces, proponemos criterios para estandarizar la escritura o selección de nombres comunes de las plantas regionales. También planteamos que dicha estandarización se integre en medios confiables como bases de datos botánicas regionales.

“We place our hope in the land”: defense of the territory against mining in Ixtacamaxtitlán, Puebla

Veronica Vazquez_Garcia Esteban Martínez Vásquez (2023, [Artículo, Artículo])

Mexico occupies first place in mining exploration in Latin America, a situation that has caused alarm among native peoples because the implementation of extractive projects threatens their vital space. The objective of this paper is to analyze the actions of Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR) of the Ixtaca Project in Ixtacamaxtitlán, Puebla, as well as the strategies of territorial defense undertaken by the communities to stop its expansion. Data was gathered through one survey, one workshop and various interviews conducted in three communities affected by the project. Results discuss three actions of CSR: 1) job offers; 2) investment in community infrastructure; 3) support for social events. Three main defense strategies were identified: 1) collective agreements refusing to sell water to the company; 2) legal litigations in favor of the right to be consulted as native peoples; 3) the strengthening of peasant agriculture thanks to the defense of the ejido, the conservation of irrigation water and the support received from the federal program Sembrando Vida. The paper concludes that, despite the negative impacts of RCS actions, these strategies have proven effective because mining concessions have been cancelled and some families have returned to agriculture.

Synthesis of hollow carbon spheres by chemical activation of carbon nanoparticles for their use in electrochemical capacitor

Cesar Eduardo Sanchez Rodriguez EDUARDO TOVAR MARTINEZ MARISOL REYES REYES Luis Felipe Cházaro Ruiz ROMAN LOPEZ SANDOVAL (2022, [Artículo])

"Naphthalene combustion has been used to synthesize grams per hour of solid carbon spheres (CS). The carbon soot was activated by acid treatment consisting in a mixture of HNO3 and H2SO4 (1/3 v/v) to produce hollow carbon spheres (HCS). The effect of two concentrations of CSs (5 and 10 mg mL−1) in the acid mixture, on the physicochemical properties of the activated HCSs was studied. The HSCs were subjected to a thermal treatment to increase their graphitization to enhance their electrical conductivity. High-resolution transmission electron microscopy confirmed the formation of HCSs due to the acid treatment whereas FTIR spectra showed that the chemical activation produced functional groups on the carbon spheres surface and the heat treatment effect to remove some of them as well. A specific surface area of 300 m2 g−1 and a large density of micropores for the acid-treated CSs as well as the heat-treated CSs were estimated by analysis of N2 adsorption-desorption isotherms. A specific capacitance 70 F g−1 was calculated by cyclic voltammetry of the acid and thermally treated HCSs at 5 mV s−1, for both CS concentrations, indicating the possibility of synthesizing these HCSs using a simple method in large quantities for their use in electrochemical capacitors."

Optimizing nitrogen fertilizer and planting density levels for maize production under current climate conditions in Northwest Ethiopian midlands

Kindie Tesfaye Dereje Ademe Enyew Adgo (2023, [Artículo])

This study determined the most effective plating density (PD) and nitrogen (N) fertilizer rate for well-adapted BH540 medium-maturing maize cultivars for current climate condition in north west Ethiopia midlands. The Decision Support System for Agrotechnology Transfer (DSSAT)-Crop Environment Resource Synthesis (CERES)-Maize model has been utilized to determine the appropriate PD and N-fertilizer rate. An experimental study of PD (55,555, 62500, and 76,900 plants ha−1) and N (138, 207, and 276 kg N ha−1) levels was conducted for 3 years at 4 distinct sites. The DSSAT-CERES-Maize model was calibrated using climate data from 1987 to 2018, physicochemical soil profiling data (wilting point, field capacity, saturation, saturated hydraulic conductivity, root growth factor, bulk density, soil texture, organic carbon, total nitrogen; and soil pH), and agronomic management data from the experiment. After calibration, the DSSAT-CERES-Maize model was able to simulate the phenology and growth parameters of maize in the evaluation data set. The results from analysis of variance revealed that the maximum observed and simulated grain yield, biomass, and leaf area index were recorded from 276 kg N ha−1 and 76,900 plants ha−1 for the BH540 maize variety under the current climate condition. The application of 76,900 plants ha−1 combined with 276 kg N ha−1 significantly increased observed and simulated yield by 25% and 15%, respectively, compared with recommendation. Finally, future research on different N and PD levels in various agroecological zones with different varieties of mature maize types could be conducted for the current and future climate periods.
