Variability of Microcirculation Detected by Blood Pulsation Imaging

Alexei Kamshilin (2013, [Artículo])

The non-invasive assessment of blood flow is invaluable for the diagnostic and monitoring treatment of numerous vascular and neurological diseases. We developed a non-invasive and non-contact method of blood pulsation imaging capable of visualizing and monitoring of the two-dimensional distribution of two key parameters of peripheral blood flow: the blood pulsation amplitude and blood pulsation phase. The method is based on the photoplethysmographic imaging in the reflection mode. In contrast with previous imaging systems we use new algorithm for data processing which allows two dimensional mapping of blood pulsations in large object's areas after every cardiac cycle. In our study we carried out the occlusion test of the arm and found (i) the extensive variability of 2D-distribution of blood pulsation amplitude from one cardiac cycle to another, and (ii) existence of the adjacent spots to which the blood is asynchronously supplied. These observations show that the method can be used for studying of the multicomponent regulation of peripheral blood circulation. The proposed technique is technologically simple and cost-effective, which makes it applicable for monitoring the peripheral microcirculation in clinical settings for example, in diagnostics or testing the efficiency of new medicines. © 2013 Kamshilin et al.

Diagnóstico de los artículos científicos publicados en la Unidad de Recursos Naturales del CICY

JOSE LUIS HERNANDEZ STEFANONI Fernando de Jesús Tun Dzul DANIELA HUDA TARHUNI NAVARRO MIRIAM BEATRIZ JUAN QUI VALENCIA (2022, [Artículo])

Se presenta un diagnóstico estratégico de la productividad de artículos científicos publicados entre 2010 y 2021 de la Unidad de Recursos Naturales del CICY. Los resultados muestran que se publican entre 9 y 11 artículos por año en cada línea de investigación, que corresponden a 3 artículos por investigador por año. Otra fortaleza está en la formación de recursos humanos ya que entre el 40 y 71% de los artículos de autor por correspondencia el primer autor es un estudiante. Sin embargo, se tendría que mejorar la productividad de artículos como primer autor o autor de correspondencia. Adicionalmente, el impacto de los artículos publicados es similar al de la media nacional. Finalmente, esta información permite identificar las áreas de oportunidad y las fortalezas en cada línea de investígación.

Solanum tuberosum Microtuber Development under Darkness Unveiled through RNAseq Transcriptomic Analysis

ELIANA VALENCIA LOZANO LISSET HERRERA ISIDRON Osiel Salvador Recoder-Meléndez Aarón Barraza Celis JOSE LUIS CABRERA PONCE (2022, [Artículo])

"Potato microtuber (MT) development through in vitro techniques are ideal propagules for producing high quality potato plants. MT formation is influenced by several factors, i.e., photoperiod, sucrose, hormones, and osmotic stress. We have previously developed a protocol of MT induction in medium with sucrose (8% w/v), gelrite (6g/L), and 2iP as cytokinin under darkness. To understand the molecular mechanisms involved, we performed a transcriptome-wide analysis. Here we show that 1715 up- and 1624 down-regulated genes were involved in this biological process. Through the protein–protein interaction (PPI) network analyses performed in the STRING database (v11.5), we found 299 genes tightly associated in 14 clusters. Two major clusters of up-regulated proteins fundamental for life growth and development were found: 29 ribosomal proteins (RPs) interacting with 6 PEBP family members and 117 cell cycle (CC) proteins. The PPI network of up-regulated transcription factors (TFs) revealed that at least six TFs–MYB43, TSF, bZIP27, bZIP43, HAT4 and WOX9–may be involved during MTs development. The PPI network of down-regulated genes revealed a cluster of 83 proteins involved in light and photosynthesis, 110 in response to hormone, 74 in hormone mediate signaling pathway and 22 related to aging."

Plan estratégico para el saneamiento de la cuenca del río de Los Perros

CITLALLI ASTUDILLO ENRIQUEZ (2019, [Documento de trabajo])

TH1908.1

En el presente documento se plasma la problemática que tiene el cauce desde la perspectiva ambiental y los factores que la provocan. Se describe la zona de la cuenca del río de Los Perros, es decir, se realiza una caracterización de la situación que se tiene actualmente en sus aspectos geográficos, climáticos, sociales, económicos e hidrológicos. Se realizó un diagnóstico ambiental con base en los foros y opiniones de la población vecina, así como recorridos de campo y mediciones de parámetros de campo aplicadas al agua del cauce, para la identificación de la problemática. Este diagnóstico comprende el estado actual de las plantas de tratamiento, las descargas de aguas residuales directas al cauce, los residuos sólidos urbanos, los sedimentos y la basura vegetal depositada en el río por el arrastre del agua en época de lluvias y, por último, la situación social y política que influye en el estado del río.

Natural disasters and economic growth: a synthesis of empirical evidence

Fernando Antonio Ignacio González (2023, [Artículo, Artículo])

Natural disasters pose a serious threat globally and, in the future, their frequency and severity are expected to increase due to climate change. Empirical evidence has reported conflicting results in terms of the impact of disasters on economic growth. In this context, the present work seeks to synthesize the recent empirical evidence related to this topic. More than 650 estimates, from studies published in the last five years (2015-2020), are used. Meta-analysis and meta-regression techniques are employed. The review includes three sources (Scopus, Science Direct, and Google Scholar). The results identified the existence of a negative and significant combined effect (-0.015). Developing countries are especially vulnerable to disasters. The negative impact is greater for disasters that occurred in the last decade -in relation to previous disasters-. These findings constitute a call for attention in favor of mitigation and adaptation policies.
