El treball de recerca s’estructura de la següent manera. En primer lloc, plantegem i delimitem el tema, els objectius, la metodologia i la descripció de les bases de dades. Acte seguit, interpretem les bases de dades i exposem algunes consideracions. A continuació, presentem les conclusions finals que hem desenvolupat en cadascun dels àmbits en els que se centra la nostra recerca, així com el projecte de tesi doctoral i les noves línies de recerca. Per últim, exposem la bibliografia i els annexes, en els que incloem les bases de dades i reproduim els estudis traductològics comentats en el treball. Amb l’elaboració d’aquest treball de recerca pretenem, entre d’altres, donar a conèixer els gèneres literaris que va cultivar Mercè Rodoreda; recopilar l’obra crítica al voltant de l’autora i distingir la seva temàtica per determinar el nombre d’estudis crítics sobre traducció; identificar quins títols de l’obra de Mercè Rodoreda s’han traslladat a altres llengües, així com confirmar quina és l’obra més traduïda i quines les llengües a les que s’ha traslladat la seva obra; i, per últim, constatar la presència d’obres originals, estudis crítics i traduccions a les Biblioteques Nacionals del món i identificar-ne les possibles àrees d’expansió.

El Bienestar del hogar y los funcionamientos elementales de la Infancia y juventud en edad escolar: aplicación de un Modelo de Estructura de Covarianza (MEC) al caso del departamento de Antioquia- Colombia

En la investigación planteo que el logro de las capacidades de los niños y jóvenes está sujeto a su entorno familiar, de manera que el bienestar del hogar en el espacio de los funcionamientos influye en los niveles de salud y de educación de los niños y jóvenes en edad escolar. La primera parte, es el marco basado en el enfoque de capacidades, donde se establece un soporte teórico entre el bienestar de la infancia y las capacidades. La segunda, es la aplicación de un Modelo de Estructura de Covarianza (MEC), aplicado al caso de Antioquia-Colombia. Palabras

Ecology of phlebotomine sand flies (Diptera: Psychodidae)in a focus of Leishmania (Viannia) brasiliensis in northeastern Colombia

The phlebotomine sand fly fauna of two coffee plantations in a Leishmania-endemic area of Norte de Santander, Colombia was studied. Regular insect collections using a variety of methods were made for three and a half years. Information was obtained on diurnal resting sites, host range and seasonal abundance for 17 species, of wich five (Lutzomyia spinicrassa, Lu. serrana,Lu. shannoni, Lu. ovallesi and Lu. gomezi) were far more numerous than the others, anthropophilic and present throughout the year. The behaviour of these and the remaining 12 species is discussed in relation to their potential role in transmission of Leishmania (Viannia) brasiliensis in the area.

Inversion Analytics: Análisis sobre rentabilidad de inversiones mediante VAN y TIR

Inversion Analytics es una herramienta para facilitar el análisis en inversiones que se planteen en pequeñas, medianas y grandes empresas, en el que se plasmará toda la información necesaria para determinar los valores que entran en juego en la inversión. La aplicación realiza esta función mediante el cálculo de VAN (Valor Actual Neto) y TIR (Tasa Interna de Rentabilidad) de una inversión determinada, a partir de la información introducida por el usuario y teniendo en cuenta los distintos métodos de amortización de la inversión inicial, así como los distintos enfoques o supuestos en el que clasificaremos el horizonte temporal de la misma.

Naturally acquired antibodies against the major merozoite surface coat protein (MSP-1) of Plasmodium falciparum acquired by residents in an endemic area of Colombia

A preliminary baseline epidemiological malaria survey was conducted in the village of Punta Soldado, Colombia. Parasite prevalence and density as well as serological data were obtained from 151 asymptomatic children and adults. Fifty individuals were infected with Plasmodium falciparum. The mean parasite density was 184 parasites/mm3. Greater than 90 of the sample population were P. falciparum antibody positive as detected by the indirect immunofluorescent antibody test (IFAT). The enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) was used to detect antibodies against the major merozoite surface protein (MSP-1) of P. falciparum. In this population, anti-MSP-1 antibody concentration is acquired in an age dependent manner with equal immunogenicity to both the N- and C-terminal regions of the molecule. Infection at the time of sampling was associated with a higher anti-MSP-1 antibody concentration than that found in non-infected individuals. Further studies are planned to assess the role of immune and non-immune factors in limiting the number of cases of severe malaria seen in this population.

Genetic variability and differentiation between populations of Rhodnius prolixus and R. pallescens, vectors of Chagas' Disease in Colombia

Enzyme polymorphism in Rhodnius prolixus and R. pallescens (Hemiptera, Reduviidae), principal vectors of Chagas' disease in Colombia, was analyzed using starch gel electrophoresis. Three geographic locations were sampled in order to determine gene flow between populations and to characterize intra- and interspecific differences. Of 25 enzymes assayed 10 were successfully resolved and then used to score the genetic variation. The enzymes PEPD, GPI, PGM and ICD were useful to differentiate these species and PGD, PGM and MDH distinguished between sylvatic and domiciliary populations of R. prolixus. Both polymorphism and heterozygosity indicated greater genetic variability in sylvatic habitats (H = 0.021) compared to domiciliary habitats (H = 0.006) in both species. Gene flow between sylvatic and domiciliary populations in R. prolixus was found to be minimal. This fact and the genetic distance between them suggest a process of genetic isolation in the domiciliary population.

Indigenous people's mobilization and their struggle for rights in Colombia

This text aims at showing the history of indigenous peoples’ mobilization in Colombia, the effects that it has brought about on Colombian democracy and political system, and the state’s reactions to their claims and actions. It will show how they have moved from class-based claims to a politics where identity claims have been central in their agenda and part of their strategies to negotiate with the state. It will also show the existing constitutional and legal framework that recognizes the rights of indigenous peoples, despite the context of persecution, murder, and forced displacement.

Two new species of the subgenus Peytonulus of Sabethes (Diptera: Culicidae) from Colombia

The adults and male genitalia of two new species of Sabethes subgenus Peytonulus are described from Colombia. The male genitalia are illustrated and the species are distinguished from one another and other members of the subgenus.

Man-biting activity of Anopheles (Nyssorhynchus) albimanus and An. (Kerteszia) neivai (Diptera: Culicidae) in the Pacific Lowlands of Colombia

The daily man-biting activity of Anopheles (Nyssorhynchus) albimanus and An. (Kerteszia) neivai was determined in four ecologically distinct settlements of the Naya River, Department of Valle, Colombia. Differences were found among the settlements with respect to the mosquito species present, intradomiciliary and extradomiciliary biting activity and population densities.
