La apropiación en tensión : Los usos de la computadora e Internet al interior de familias de sectores populares beneficiarias del Programa Conectar Igualdad (PCI) en la Argentina

La implementación de programas de inclusión digital en América Latina ha intervenido en la reconfiguración de los esquemas de acceso y posesión de tecnología y ha dado lugar a que nuevos actores se apropien de las TIC. En el presente artículo se reflexiona sobre la apropiación de la computadora e Internet por parte de jóvenes de sectores populares beneficiarios del Programa Conectar Igualdad (PCI) y sus familias. Los hallazgos de nuestra investigación dan cuenta de una transformación de las trayectorias individuales y familiares de acceso la tecnología a partir del PCI, del surgimiento de nuevos usos al interior del hogar y de prácticas de enseñanzas-aprendizaje que invierten los roles tradicionales entre padres e hijos. Asimismo, se evidencia que los procesos de apropiación de la computadora e Internet están mediados por tensiones y negociaciones intergeneracionales para la definición de los tipos y dinámicas de uso, así como por los contrastes entre las expectativas de padres e hijos con respecto a la potencialidad de las TIC en general y del PCI en particular

Experiences in using a contingency factor-based validation methodology for spreadsheet DSS

The use of spreadsheets has become routine in all aspects of business with usage growing across a range of functional areas and a continuing trend towards end user spreadsheet development. However, several studies have raised concerns about the accuracy of spreadsheet models in general, and of end user developed applications in particular, raising the risk element for users. High error rates have been discovered, even though the users/developers were confident that their spreadsheets were correct. The lack of an easy to use, context-sensitive validation methodology has been highlighted as a significant contributor to the problems of accuracy. This paper describes experiences in using a practical, contingency factor-based methodology for validation of spreadsheet-based DSS. Because the end user is often both the system developer and a stakeholder, the contingency factor-based validation methodology may need to be used in more than one way. The methodology can also be extended to encompass other DSS.

Fibrinolysis Versus Primary Pci In Stemi Patients Enrolled In The International Survey Of Acute Coronary Syndromes In Transitional Countries

Primary angioplasty has been shown to be more effective than fibrinolysis in terms of mortality and adverse outcomes. More recent data, however, suggests that timely reperfusion with fibrinolysis is comparable to primary angioplasty. The current study gathered data from the International Survey of Acute Coronary Syndromes in Transitional Countries registry. Among 7406 ST-elevation myocardial infarction patients presenting within 12 hours from symptom onset, 6315 underwent primary percutaneous coronary intervention and 1091 were treated with fibrinolysis. The primary outcome was 30-day mortality, while the secondary outcome was a composite of 30-day incidence of death, severe left ventricular dysfunction, stroke or reinfarction. Patients who underwent primary angioplasty tended to have a greater cardiovascular risk profile and were slightly older. On the other hand, patients treated with fibrinolysis received less anti-platelet medications yet were more often prescribed beta blockers in the acute phase. Among those who received fibrinolysis, 43% underwent coronary angiography while 32.3% were treated with a subsequent angioplasty. Total ischemic time was lower in patients undergoing fibrinolysis (185 minutes) than in those treated with primary angioplasty (258 minutes). Rates of primary and secondary combined endpoints were higher in patients receiving fibrinolysis compared to those receiving primary angioplasty (7.8% vs. 4.1%; p<0.0001; OR 1.97, 95% CI, 1.38-2.81; and 14.8% vs. 10.1%, p<0.0001; OR 1.43, 95% CI, 1.12-1.81). When considering only patients receiving reperfusion within 3 hours, regardless of reperfusion strategy, differences in mortality (6.3% vs. 4%, p=0.094, for fibrinolysis or primary angioplasty, respectively; OR 0.87, 95% CI, 0.35-2.16) and in the combined secondary endpoint were no longer observed (12.9% vs 10.8%, p=0.33; OR 0.98, 95% CI, 0.58-1.64), and female sex was no longer a significant predictor of adverse outcomes. When performed 3 hours from symptom onset, fibrinolysis is safe and feasible, in terms of mortality and adverse outcomes, compared to primary angioplasty.

Sim-xl: A Powerful And User-friendly Tool For Peptide Cross-linking Analysis.

Chemical cross-linking has emerged as a powerful approach for the structural characterization of proteins and protein complexes. However, the correct identification of covalently linked (cross-linked or XL) peptides analyzed by tandem mass spectrometry is still an open challenge. Here we present SIM-XL, a software tool that can analyze data generated through commonly used cross-linkers (e.g., BS3/DSS). Our software introduces a new paradigm for search-space reduction, which ultimately accounts for its increase in speed and sensitivity. Moreover, our search engine is the first to capitalize on reporter ions for selecting tandem mass spectra derived from cross-linked peptides. It also makes available a 2D interaction map and a spectrum-annotation tool unmatched by any of its kind. We show SIM-XL to be more sensitive and faster than a competing tool when analyzing a data set obtained from the human HSP90. The software is freely available for academic use at http://patternlabforproteomics.org/sim-xl. A video demonstrating the tool is available at http://patternlabforproteomics.org/sim-xl/video. SIM-XL is the first tool to support XL data in the mzIdentML format; all data are thus available from the ProteomeXchange consortium (identifier PXD001677).

Influências metodológicas na mensuração de impacto: o caso das Memórias do Instituto Oswaldo Cruz e sua "qualificação"

In recent years, the availabity of citation indexes for evaluation of Brazilian scientific production has increased. The comparison between the results of the methodologies used to estimate indicators in the citation reports of SciELO database and in Journal Citation Reports (ISI-Thomson Scientific) made it possible to evaluate implications associated to the Brazilian scientific policy (Qualis), regarding some specific criteria. A period of 10 years was considered, taking into account two bibliometric indicators (the total of citations in a year and the Impact Factor) of the journal Memorias do Instituto Oswaldo Cruz, which is indexed in both indexes. The correction of the indicators associated to this journal showed that the differences in the citation indexed were more expressive in 2001, having decreased in the last years. This reduction gives credibility to both databases, validating their systems for the production of bibliometric indicators.

Documentos convencionais e não convencionais em administração, ciências contábeis e economia: estudo sobre sua utilização pelos alunos de graduação

Introdução ao uso dos protocolos SRU/SRW: ferramentas para a catalogação cooperativa

In this article the use of Search and Retrieve URL (SRU) / Search and Retrieve Web Service (SRW) protocols, both developed and maintained by the Library of Congress in the United States, is presented and discussed. The SRU/SRW is a new draft protocol based on the already widespread Z39.50 protocol, whose purpose is to facilitate the development of solutions for shared cooperative cataloging of bibliographic information. Some examples of applications are also shown and the lack of production on the subject in specialized journals is pointed out.

A gestão do conhecimento na educação ambiental

Information and knowledge are resources of environmental education (EE) that can be performed through knowledge management (KM). The aim of this paper is to propose measures of knowledge creation (KC) to improve performance of EE. This study is based on the research literature without empirical findings; therefore, the results are limited by the methodological resources of the theoretical essay. However, this limitation is the greatest motivation for future research which could investigate the proximity of EE with KM and KC in empirical investigations. Some suggestions for developing the requirements of KC programs to EE are presented as the results: possibility of the SECI process to better perform various aspects of environmental education such as social learning, interaction activities, dialogue, experience exchanging, information and knowledge, and of different ideas and ways of acting, done by EE and, finally, the possibility of Ba to develop a proper space for creation of new environmental knowledge. This article contains academic contributions to KM by providing greater discussion and understanding of KC; to EE when it allows a different view based on the work of information and knowledge about the processes of teaching, when contributing to social programs for EE, improving their practices and, consequently, contributing to an environmentally sustainable economic development.
