Análisis de las formas de apropiación nocturna del espacio público, en el parque de los hippies, localidad de chapinero, a partir de una muestra poblacional de jóvenes entre 18-­‐28 años, a la luz de los parámetros de Enric Pol y Tomeur Vidal sobre la “apropiación” del espacio

El interés de este estudio de caso es comprender y explicar la apropiación del espacio público urbano no sólo como un vínculo cotidiano entre el territorio y sus ciudadanos, sino, además, como un proceso dialéctico que, genera significado, identidad y apego al lugar. En este sentido se analizan las formas de apropiación nocturnas del Parque de los Hippies a partir de una muestra poblacional de jóvenes entre 18-28 años, a la luz de los parámetros de Enric Pol y Tomeu Vidal. Evidenciando que desde un acercamiento cotidiano a la realidad urbana, que reconozca la significación histórica, social, cultural y económica de los territorios, así como las dinámicas de convivencia y conflictos que se presentan en dichos espacios, se puede, desde el enfoque de gestión y desarrollo urbanos, generar recomendaciones para movilizar acciones que resalten y preserven los valores urbanos multidimensionales del lugar; fortalezcan algunas de sus formas de apropiación y, promuevan la convivencia entre las distintas formas y sus actores.

Valores de referencia de hemoglobinemia en población Colombiana de 1 a 18 años por género y altitud

Introducción: La concentración de hemoglobina total es uno de los indicadores más comúnmente medidos en sangre. Sin embargo, sus valores varían de acuerdo con la altitud, sexo y edad, entre otros, por lo cual es necesario contar con valores de referencia ajustados para estas condiciones con el fin de establecer adecuadamente el diagnóstico tanto de anemia como eritrocitosis. El objetivo de este estudio fue establecer los valores de referencia para hemoglobinemia en la población colombiana entre 1 y 18 años, de acuerdo con la edad, sexo y altitud del lugar de residencia. Materiales y métodos: A partir de la encuesta nacional de salud (ENDS) y de situación nutricional (ENSIN) Colombia 2010, se analizaron los valores de hemoglobinemia provenientes de los individuos de 1 a 18 años, tras haber excluido a los sujetos con condiciones inflamatorias (proteína C reactiva >1,2 mg/ml) y con depleción de las reservas de hierro (ferritina sérica <22 μg/l), de acuerdo con la edad, sexo y altitud del lugar de residencia, utilizando el paquete estadístico IBM SPSS Statistics 21.0. Resultados y discusión: En la población seleccionada se encontró una prevalencia de anemia ferropénica entre 0% y 50%; una prevalencia de anemia no ferropénica de 0% a 18,8%. Se observaron incrementos significativos en la hemoglobinemia de acuerdo con edad, sexo y altitud a partir de 500 msnm, y para estos últimos los valores encontrados fueron superiores a los establecidos por la Organización Mundial de Salud. También se encontraron diferencias significativas en la hemoglobinemia de acuerdo con la etnia.

Oportunidades de participación laboral en la localidad de bosa para jóvenes entre los 18 y 24 años desplazados por el conflicto armado, una revisión documental

Se realiza una revisión documental sobre la problemática del conflicto armado y el fenómeno de desplazamiento, espec��ficamente en la Localidad de Bosa, ya que es una de las que más recibe población desplazada de otras regiones del País. Se realiza la revisión documental en bases de datos como Ebsco, Proquest y Scopus, incluyendo combinaciones tales como: "Occupational Therapy" and "youth" and "Forced displacement" or "refugees" and "employment inclusion". Se espera determinar los programas de vinculación y formación laboral de jóvenes en situación de desplazamiento. Se encuentra que esta población aún carece de apoyo por parte de instancias gubernamentales y de perfiles ocupacionales que encaminen los intereses y habilidades de esta población hacia el desempeño de roles productivos y educativos propios de su condición de jóvenes.

Uso y abuso de las TIC en la población escolarizada burgalesa 10-18 años : relación con otras variables psicosociales.

Expone como dar una respuesta a algunos de los interrogantes sobre las consecuencias que las tecnologías pueden estar generando en la población más joven. La finalidad consiste en aclarar la situación real, proponer alternativas y dar una respuesta educativa, preventiva y orientadora tanto a los jóvenes como a sus familias que se ven desbordadas ante un fenómeno novedoso. Ante esta situación se delimita el nivel en que se puede considerar a las nuevas tecnologías como una adicción, en averiguar hasta que punto se adhieren y asemejan a las adicciones más tradicionales o conocidas y si, realmente estas tecnologías están generando pautas dependientes o desestructurantes. Se centra fundamentalmente en los factores de tipo social, los individuales y del entorno para realizar el diagnóstico situacional que ayudará a crear estrategias educativas y preventivas. El estudio se dirige a la población escolarizada en Burgos con edades comprendidas entre los 10 y los 18 años, por lo tanto la población es el alumnado que esta cursando quinto y sexto curso de Educación Primaria, Educación Secundaria Obligatoria, Bachillerato, Ciclos Formativos de Grado Medio y Garantía Social. La metodología de trabajo utilizada es un cuestionario individual aplicado colectivamente en el grupo de clase bajo la dirección de un miembro del equipo investigador. El tamaño de la muestra es de 2063 alumnos pertenecientes a 107 grupos de clase, en 27 centros educativos. El tipo de muestreo es por conglomerados, estratificado y de fijación proporcional estratificado por cuotas de cursos y nivel educativo, población y tipo de centro. El nivel de confianza de los datos generales es superior al 95,5 por ciento y el margen de error es inferior al 2,11 por ciento. En el cuestionario constan preguntas referidas a: 1. Datos sociodemográficos: edad sexo, convivencia familiar, datos académicos, actividades extraescolares y uso del tiempo libre; 2. Datos cualitativos y cuantitativos referidos al uso de las Tecnologías de la Información y de la Comunicación (TIC): a) televisión, b) ordenador, Internet, c) videoconsola, d) reproductores de música, e) teléfono móvil; 3. Autopercepción del uso de las TIC; 4. Valoración de diversos aspectos de autopercepción personal: a) autopercepción del uso de juegos electrónicos, ordenador, videoconsola, Internet, chat, televisión, b) autopercepción del éxito y los resultados, c) autopercepción del estudio y de la institución académica, d) autopercepción del uso del tiempo, actividades y aficiones, e) autopercepción del dinero que se maneja, f) autopercepción de las relaciones con la familia, g) autopercepción de los amigos y relaciones sociales. Como resultados finales se observa que las nuevas tecnologías se usan de una forma muy frecuente, especialmente los soportes para oír música y ver la televisión. Se hace de forma más continuada, con más asiduidad y para múltiples tareas de la vida cotidiana, haciendo incidencia en la importante presencia de todo lo relacionado con la informática. La investigación nos sitúa ante una amplia mayoría de jóvenes que tienen una relación bien ajustada con las nuevas tecnologías. Estos jóvenes muestran respuestas normalizadas, no solamente en las preguntas referentes a las TIC, sino también en el resto de las preguntas realizadazas un grupo amplio de jóvenes bien integrados, y como es de recibo, nos ofrecen respuestas reflejo de sus situación actual. En este sentido son destacables las preguntas relacionadas con los amigos y no desean cambiarlos. Los encuestados no echan la culpa de sus problemas a los demás, la mayoría sabe que tiene que esforzarse en su carrera profesional para tener éxito. Son jóvenes que en su mayoría, ni están ni se sienten solos, que mantienen las aficiones a lo largo del tiempo, se paran a pensar en el sentido de lo que están haciendo y que incluso, a veces, hacen regalos a su familia con su propia paga. En cuanto al uso de los diferentes soportes tecnológicos (teléfonos móviles, Internet, juegos) es mayoritario e incluso masivo.

Incorporation of cis-9, trans-11 conjugated linoleic acid and vaccenic acid (trans-11 18 : 1) into plasma and leucocyte lipids in healthy men consuming dairy products naturally enriched in these fatty acids

The present study investigated whether consuming dairy products naturally enriched in cis-9, trans-11 (c9,t11) conjugated linoleic acid (CLA) by modification of cattle feed increases the concentration of this isomer in plasma and cellular lipids in healthy men. The study had a double-blind cross-over design. Subjects aged 34-60 years consumed dairy products available from food retailers for 1 week and then either control (0.17 g c9,t11 CLA/d; 0.31 g trans-vaccenic acid (tVA)/d) or CLA-enriched (1.43 g c9,t11 CLA/d; 4.71 g tVA/d) dairy products for 6 weeks. After 7 weeks washout, this was repeated with the alternate products. c9,t11 CLA concentration in plasma lipids was lower after consuming the control products, which may reflect the two-fold greater c9,t11 CLA content of the commercial products. Consuming the CLA-enriched dairy products increased the c9,t11 CLA concentration in plasma phosphatidylcholine (PC) (38 %; P=0.035), triacylglycerol (TAG) (22 %; P < 0.0001) and cholesteryl esters (205 %; P < 0.0001), and in peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMC) (238 %; P < 0.0001), while tVA concentration was greater in plasma PC (65 %; P=0.035), TAG (98 %; P=0.001) and PBMC (84 %; P=0.004). Overall, the present study shows that consumption of naturally enriched dairy products in amounts similar to habitual intakes of these foods increased the c9,t11 CLA content of plasma and cellular lipids.

Characterization of the layered structure in main chain dibenzo-18-crown-6 ether polymers by simultaneous WAXS/MAXS-SAXS/DSC measurements

The structure and thermal properties of polymers containing dibenzo-18-crown-6 ether units in the main chain linked to an aliphatic spacer of different lengths (C10-C14) is reported. X-ray diffraction patterns of all the studied samples exhibit a peak in the medium angle region, revealing the existence of a lamellar structure. Simultaneous calorimetry and small, medium (SAXS-MAXS) and wide (WAXS) X-ray measurements during cooling and subsequent heating of the samples reveal that a layer phase is formed upon cooling. In the case of the homopolymers, this phase is almost simultaneously accompanied by the appearance of some reflections in the wide angle region as an indication of lateral crystallization. However, by copolymerization, the formation of the layer phase is decoupled from lateral crystallization, being stable in a wide temperature region.

Examination of faecal Bifidobacterium populations in breast- and formula-fed infants during the first 18 months of life.

Bifidobacteria in the infant faecal microbiota have been the focus of much interest, especially during the exclusive milk-feeding period and in relation to the fortification of infant formulae to better mimic breast milk. However, longitudinal studies examining the diversity and dynamics of the Bifidobacterium population of infants are lacking, particularly in relation to the effects of weaning. Using a polyphasic strategy, the Bifidobacterium populations of breast- and formula-fed infants were examined during the first 18 months of life. Bifidobacterium-specific denaturing gradient gel electrophoresis demonstrated that breast-fed infants harboured greater diversity than formula-fed infants and the diversity of the infants' Bifidobacterium populations increased with weaning. Twenty-seven distinctive banding profiles were observed from ∼1100 infant isolates using ribosomal intergenic spacer analysis, 14 biotypes of which were confirmed to be members of the genus Bifidobacterium. Two profiles (H, Bifidobacterium longum subsp. infantis; and I, Bifidobacterium bifidum) were common culturable biotypes, seen in 9/10 infants, while profile E (Bifidobacterium breve) was common among breast-fed infants. Overall, inter- and intra-individual differences were observed in the Bifidobacterium populations of infants between 1 and 18 months of age, although weaning was associated with increased diversity of the infant Bifidobacterium populations. Breast-fed infants generally harboured a more complex Bifidobacterium microbiota than formula-fed infants.

Stepwise construction of [Os6(CO)18(μ6-P)]-, a hexanuclear osmium cluster monoanion with trigonal-prismatic co-ordination for phosphorus: X-ray crystal structures of [Os6(μ-H)2(CO)20(MeCN)(μ3-PH)] and [PPh3Me][Os6(CO)18(μ6-P)]

Treatment of the labile cluster [Os3(CO)11(MeCN)] with PH3 affords the substituted product [Os3(CO)11(PH3)](1) in high yield. Subsequent reaction of (1) with Na2CO3 in MeOH, followed by acidification, gives the hydrido phosphido cluster [Os3(µ-H)(CO)10(µ-PH2)](2). When (2) is heated to 45–60 °C in the presence of [Os3(CO)11(MeCN)] a hexanuclear complex with the formulation [Os6(µ-H)2(CO)21(µ3-PH)](3) is obtained. If this reaction is repeated using [Os3(CO)10(MeCN)2] instead of [Os3(CO)11(MeCN)], an acetonitrile-containing product, [Os6(µ-H)2(CO)20(MeCN)(µ3-PH)](4), is obtained. An X-ray analysis of (4) shows that two Os3 triangular units are linked by a µ3-phosphinidene ligand, which symmetrically bridges an Os–Os edge of one triangle and is terminally co-ordinated to one Os atom of the second triangle. When (3) is treated with a weak base, such as [N(PPh3)2]Cl or [PPh3Me] Br, deprotonation to the corresponding cluster monoanion [Os6(µ-H)(CO)21(µ3-PH)]–(5) occurs. Treatment of (5) with a weak acid regenerates (3) in quantitative yield. Thermolysis of (3) leads to a closing up of the metal framework, affording the cluster [Os6(µ-H)(CO)18(µ6-P)], which readily deprotonates to give the anion [Os6(CO)18(µ6-P)]–(7) in the presence of [N(PPh3)2] Cl or [PPh3Me]Br. The same anion (7) may also be obtained by direct thermolysis of (5). An X-ray analysis of the [PPh3Me]+ salt of (7) confirms that the phosphorus occupies an interstitial site in a trigonal-prismatic hexaosmium framework, and co-ordinates to all six metal atoms with an average Os–P distance of 2.31 (1)Å. Proton and 31P n.m.r. data on all the new clusters are presented, and the position of the phosphorus resonance in the 31P n.m.r. spectrum is related to the changes in the environment of the phosphorus atom.

Pollen-based reconstructions of biome distributions for Australia, Southeast Asia and the Pacific (SEAPAC region) at 0,6000 and 18,000 14C yr B.P.

Aim  This paper documents reconstructions of the vegetation patterns in Australia, Southeast Asia and the Pacific (SEAPAC region) in the mid-Holocene and at the last glacial maximum (LGM). Methods  Vegetation patterns were reconstructed from pollen data using an objective biomization scheme based on plant functional types. The biomization scheme was first tested using 535 modern pollen samples from 377 sites, and then applied unchanged to fossil pollen samples dating to 6000 ± 500 or 18,000 ± 1000 14C yr bp. Results  1. Tests using surface pollen sample sites showed that the biomization scheme is capable of reproducing the modern broad-scale patterns of vegetation distribution. The north–south gradient in temperature, reflected in transitions from cool evergreen needleleaf forest in the extreme south through temperate rain forest or wet sclerophyll forest (WSFW) and into tropical forests, is well reconstructed. The transitions from xerophytic through sclerophyll woodlands and open forests to closed-canopy forests, which reflect the gradient in plant available moisture from the continental interior towards the coast, are reconstructed with less geographical precision but nevertheless the broad-scale pattern emerges. 2. Differences between the modern and mid-Holocene vegetation patterns in mainland Australia are comparatively small and reflect changes in moisture availability rather than temperature. In south-eastern Australia some sites show a shift towards more moisture-stressed vegetation in the mid-Holocene with xerophytic woods/scrub and temperate sclerophyll woodland and shrubland at sites characterized today by WSFW or warm-temperate rain forest (WTRF). However, sites in the Snowy Mountains, on the Southern Tablelands and east of the Great Dividing Range have more moisture-demanding vegetation in the mid-Holocene than today. South-western Australia was slightly drier than today. The single site in north-western Australia also shows conditions drier than today in the mid-Holocene. Changes in the tropics are also comparatively small, but the presence of WTRF and tropical deciduous broadleaf forest and woodland in the mid-Holocene, in sites occupied today by cool-temperate rain forest, indicate warmer conditions. 3. Expansion of xerophytic vegetation in the south and tropical deciduous broadleaf forest and woodland in the north indicate drier conditions across mainland Australia at the LGM. None of these changes are informative about the degree of cooling. However the evidence from the tropics, showing lowering of the treeline and forest belts, indicates that conditions were between 1 and 9 °C (depending on elevation) colder. The encroachment of tropical deciduous broadleaf forest and woodland into lowland evergreen broadleaf forest implies greater aridity. Main conclusions  This study provides the first continental-scale reconstruction of mid-Holocene and LGM vegetation patterns from Australia, Southeast Asia and the Pacific (SEAPAC region) using an objective biomization scheme. These data will provide a benchmark for evaluation of palaeoclimate simulations within the framework of the Palaeoclimate Modelling Intercomparison Project.

18 Nov 2013 In situ detection of electrified aerosols in the upper troposphere and stratosphere

Electrified aerosols have been observed in the lower troposphere and in the mesosphere, but have never been detected in the stratosphere and upper troposphere. We present measurements of aerosols obtained during a balloon flight to an altitude of 24 km. The measurements were per- formed with an improved version of the Stratospheric and Tropospheric Aerosol Counter (STAC) aerosol counter dedi- cated to the search for charged aerosols. It is found that most of the aerosols are charged in the upper troposphere for altitudes below 10 km and in the stratosphere for altitudes above 20 km. Conversely, the aerosols seem to be uncharged between 10 km and 20 km. Model calculations are used to quantify the electrification of the aerosols with a stratospheric aerosol–ion model. The percentages of charged aerosols obtained with model calculations are in excellent agreement with the observations below 10 km and above 20 km. However, the model cannot reproduce the absence of electrification found in the lower stratosphere, as the processes leading to neutralisation in this altitude range are unknown. The presence of sporadic transient layers of electrified aerosol in the upper troposphere and in the stratosphere could have significant implications for sprite formation

Pollen-based biomes for Beringia 18,000, 6000 and 0 14C yr B.P.

The objective biomization method developed by Prentice et al. (1996) for Europe was extended using modern pollen samples from Beringia and then applied to fossil pollen data to reconstruct palaeovegetation patterns at 6000 and 18,000 14C yr bp. The predicted modern distribution of tundra, taiga and cool conifer forests in Alaska and north-western Canada generally corresponds well to actual vegetation patterns, although sites in regions characterized today by a mosaic of forest and tundra vegetation tend to be preferentially assigned to tundra. Siberian larch forests are delimited less well, probably due to the extreme under-representation of Larix in pollen spectra. The biome distribution across Beringia at 6000 14C yr bp was broadly similar to today, with little change in the northern forest limit, except for a possible northward advance in the Mackenzie delta region. The western forest limit in Alaska was probably east of its modern position. At 18,000 14C yr bp the whole of Beringia was covered by tundra. However, the importance of the various plant functional types varied from site to site, supporting the idea that the vegetation cover was a mosaic of different tundra types.

Monsoon changes for 6000 years ago: results of 18 simulations from the Paleoclimate Modeling Intercomparison Project (PMIP).

Amplification of the northern hemisphere seasonal cycle of insolation during the mid-Holocene causes a northward shift of the main regions of monsoon precipitation over Africa and India in all 18 simulations conducted for the Paleoclimate Modeling Intercomparison Project (PMIP). Differences among simulations are related to differences in model formulation. Despite qualitative agreement with paleoecological estimates of biome shifts, the magnitude of the monsoon increases over northern Africa are underestimated by all the models.
