Es importante conocer el avance y nivel de la producción científica de una disciplina, por lo que la revisión de los artículos publicados en revistas científicas constituye una fuente relevante para ...el análisis. En ese sentido, en este artículo, se realizó una investigación respecto de los trabajos publicados en la revista Contabilidad y Negocios de la Pontificia Universidad Católica del Perú. Se llevó a cabo una investigación bibliométrica sobre el período 2006-2019 con un diseño descriptivo, longitudinal y retrospectivo. A través del sitio web de la revista, se revisaron los veintiocho números publicados en catorce volúmenes en el periodo señalado mediante el análisis de las categorías definidas en la metodología. Con respecto a los resultados principales, se observó que los temas de mayor preferencia por los autores se ubican en las áreas de administración, contabilidad financiera, finanzas y contabilidad de gestión. Asimismo, se observa que la mayor parte de los artículos son de tipo descriptivo. La mayoría de ellos corresponden a autores con filiación distinta a la institución que edita la revista, con una alta participación de autores de género masculino.
Distributional semantics embodies the idea that the context in which a word occurs reveals the meaning of that word. In contemporary corpus linguistics, that idea takes shape in various types of ...quantitative context analysis. This monograph explores how count-based token-level semantic vector spaces, as an advanced form of such a quantitative methodology, can be applied to the study of polysemy, lexical variation, and lectometry. What can distributional models reveal about meaning? How can they be used to analyse the semantic relationship between near-synonyms? And how can they contribute to the study of lexical variation as a sociolinguistic variable? The book details the conceptual background of lexical semantic and lexical variation research, explains the mechanism of distributional modelling, and introduces distributional workflows and corpus linguistic tools to answer the questions. Combining a cognitive linguistic interest in meaning with a sociolinguistic interest in variation, it illustrates that distributional methodology with case studies on Dutch and Spanish lexical data, focusing on the value of distributional models for semantic analysis, the interaction of semasiological and onomasiological change, and sociolinguistic issues of lexical standardization and pluricentricity.
Background: Burn injuries in elderly are one of the leading causes of morbidity and mortality in Mexican people over 65-year. The aim of this study was to describe the epidemiology of burn ...epidemiology in people over 65-years old over a 5-year period at a level II general Hospital in Mexico City. The objective of the study was to determine the incidence of burn injuries in people over 65-years in a regional Hospital in Mexico City over a 5-year period.Methods: Retrospective study; records of burn department of all adult patients who sustained burn injury between January 2017 to July 2021 were collected. Details about age, gender, and location of the injuries were recorded and analyzed.Results: From a total of 61 cases, 40 males (65.57%) and 21 females (34.43%) were affected. The two most burn places in the human body were the head and neck with 30 cases (49.18%), followed by the upper extremity in 29 cases (47.54%), 41 burns (67.21%) were due to flames, 13 (21.31%) due to scalds and 7 (11.48%) were electrical.Conclusions: Burn injuries in elderly people are a frequent cause of mortality injury in the burn care unit, representing a health issue in our country. Proper patient evaluation and treatment are essential to prevent further complications and subsequent morbidity and mortality in this population.
Tethered cord syndrome results from adherence of the conus medullaris to the sacrum and may be associated with high complication rates from neuraxial anesthesia. We present the case of a 32-year-old ...gravida 2 para 0 patient with a history of lipomyelomeningocele (one of several types of spina bifida) and tethered cord status post repair, residual low-lying conus medullaris, supermorbid obesity (body mass index of 58), and Mallampati IV airway, who underwent successful fluoroscopically guided epidural catheter placement for vaginal delivery. Risks and benefits of epidural catheter utilization and methods of placement are reviewed.
•Cerebral venous thrombosis (CVT) is a challenging medical condition representing approximately 1% of all strokes. We reported the results of the first Argentinian National Registry on CVT (ANR-CVT) ...describing baseline characteristics, clinical presentation, predisposing factors, imaging findings, treatment and outcomes.Our literature review, comprising 25 registries from several countries covering 5 continents, showed similarities in demographics. CVT was predominant in women (72%), occurring more frequently during childbearing age.•The main differences between the Argentinian CVT registry and others were regarding predisposing factors. About 44% of patients had exposure to contraceptive pills, in contrast to Asian (11 to 14%) and Mexican (14 to 18%) series. We also found a higher prevalence of cancer (15%) in comparison with the series across the world.•Anticoagulation rate at discharge was 94%. Between registries, there was a high variability in treatment adherence according to guidelines at discharge (range 54.5%-100% of patients receiving anticoagulation at discharge).•Our study is the first comprehensive report of the Argentinian National multicenter registry on CVT. Our findings are useful for increase public and physician's awareness and planning resources for the prompt diagnosis and optimal management of CVT in Argentina and neighborhood countries.
Cerebral venous thrombosis (CVT) is a rare medical condition that primarily affects young adults. The clinical spectrum is broad and its recognition remains a challenge for clinicians. Limited information is available on CVT in Argentina. Our goal was to report the results of the first National registry on CVT in Argentina and to compare clinical presentation, predisposing factors and outcomes with other international registries.
The Argentinian National Registry on CVT (ANR-CVT) is a multicenter retrospective cohort study comprising patients aged 18 and older with a diagnosis of CVT from January 2015 to January 2019. We evaluated demographics, predisposing factors, clinical presentation, and radiological characteristics (e.g. number of involved sinuses, venous infarction or hemorrhage on CT and MRI scans at admission), therapeutic interventions and functional outcomes at discharge and at 90 days. Our results were compared to a literature review of CVT registries.
Overall, one hundred and sixty-two patients met the inclusion criteria. The mean age was 42 (±17) years; 72% were women. Seventy percent of patients were younger than 50 years. The most common presenting symptom was headache (82%). The transverse sinus was the most common site of thrombosis (70%) followed by the sigmoid sinus (46%). The main predisposing factor in women was contraceptive use (44%), 3% of the events occurred during pregnancy and 9% during the puerperium. Participants 50 years and older had a higher frequency on malignancy related (7.5% vs. 30%, p = 0.0001) and infections (2% vs. 11%, p = 0.001). The modified Rankin Scale (mRS) ≤2 at discharge was 81% and the rate of mortality at discharge was 4%. At 90 days, the mRS≤2 was 93%. When the ANR-CVT was compared with larger registries from Europe and Asia, the prevalence of cancer among patients with CVT was two to five-fold higher (15% vs. 7% and 3%, respectively; p = 0.002 and p < 0.001). Anticoagulation rates at discharge were also higher (94%) compared to registries from Asia (ASCVT – 68%) or Turkey (VENOST – 67%).
Participants in the first ANR-CVT had a low mortality and disability at 90 days. Clinical and radiological characteristics were similar to CVT from other international registries with a higher prevalence of cancer. There was a high variability in treatment adherence to guidelines as reflected by anticoagulation rates (range 54.5%-100%) at discharge.
El presente trabajo se basa en el análisis comparativo de tres obras de artistas chilenos, que tienen como punto en común el haber intervenido la fachada del Museo Nacional de Bellas Artes entre los ...años 1969 y 1997, con diferentes lenguajes artísticos entremezclados, traspasando las fronteras de la tradición artística, al tratarse de tres obras diferentes: una escultura-instalación, una escultura-performance y una instalación de índole más conceptual. El hecho de intervenir la fachada del Museo fue totalmente innovador en estos años y sin duda debemos leerlo como un cuestionamiento a la institucionalidad oficial del arte chileno en tiempos de dictadura militar, representada en este emblemático edificio.
