Algunos indicadores para el estudio del proceso de redistribucion espacial de la poblacion; borrador

Presentacion de la utilidad y metodologia de algunos indicadores para el estudio del proceso de redistribucion espacial de la poblacion. Los indicadores analizados son: 1) densidad de poblacion; 2) distribucion porcentual y por rangos; 3) indices de ocupacion territorial; 4) la curva de Lorenz y el coeficiente de concentracion de Gini; 5) medidas centrograficas; 6) medidas de interaccion espacial. Modelos potenciales y gravitacionales; 7) expresiones cartograficas de la distribucion espacial de la poblacion; 8) grado y ritmo de la urbanizacion; 9) distribucion de tamanos urbanos.

El papel del óxido nítrico en la modulación del proceso inflamatorio de la enfermedad periodontal

Nitric oxide (NO) is a free radical with participation in almost all physiologic host processes; however, in high concentrations it may damage the tissues. Its immunoregulatory action is present in the inflammation and in auto-immune mechanisms, being intensively studied in the medical area. Recently, some studies have also reported that NO could play a role as etiopathogenic factor of the periodontal disease, which shows inflammatory and multifactorial course. Due to beneficial or damage effects of NO, according to its concentrations, some studies have been focused in the evaluation of inhibitor of NO-Synthase (NOS) as therapeutic agents in inflammatory processes. In this context, the aim of this study was to report the role of NO and NOS inhibition in the periodontal disease modulation process. In conclusion, it could be suggested that NO seems to play an essential role in evolution of inflammatory periodontal disease, and that the NOS inhibition may be considered as a promising therapeutic in modulation of inflammatory process.

Imagen de hipertrofia bilateral del proceso coronoides mandibular a través de la tomografía computarizada cone-beam

The hypertrophy of the mandibular coronoid process is a rare condition, progressive and of unknown etiology, characterized by the over development of the coronoid process determining their size increased, resulting in progressive and painful limitation of mouth opening. The mandibular hypomobility is a present symptom in several diseases and associates it to a specific cause requires detailed clinical and imaginologic examination. The cone-beam computed tomography has the potential to provide complementary informations above than conventional radiography. It also has the advantage of eliminate overlaps, provide high resolution image, helping not only in diagnosis, but also in planning the surgical procedure. Here we report a case of male patient, who appeared at the clinic for an evaluation of a trismus. He had no pain, only discomfort for progressive limitation of mouth opening. On physical examination, only a limited mouth opening has been found. Although the movements of laterality and protrusión were posible, they were very limited. Cone-beam computed tomography examination was performed, that showed an image compatible with bilateral hypertrophy of the mandibular coronoid process.

Análisis del proceso inclusivo del alumno ciego en clases de Física Moderna

This paper is aimed at understanding which the most important difficulties and alternatives to include students with visual impairments in physics classes. It presents and discusses the difficulties and viabilities of having a born blind student effectively attend Modern Physics classes. Using content analysis, this experiment identifies 6 functional classes that might correspond to difficulties and 4 which refer to the viabilities. Therefore, the importance of appropriate communicative environments, the including role of the interactivity element, as well as the need for destitution of segregation environments inside classroom, are emphasized.
