Plan de capacitación sobre las algas pardas en el sur del Perú 2011-2015

El incremento en la explotación de las algas y su impacto en las zonas costeras, ha causado la preocupación de las autoridades locales y las entidades del sector, quienes percibieron el inicio de una actividad pesquera sin ordenamiento ni planes de manejo pesquero. Desde la perspectiva del conocimiento, fue escasa la información existente sobre el área de explotación, lo que motivó el inicio de las investigaciones sobre las algas y su relación con el ecosistema marino del litoral sur del Perú. Asimismo, sobre el desarrollo extractivo y/o recolección, los pescadores jugaban un rol importante, por lo cual fue fundamental sensibilizar y capacitar a los pescadores para que se integren a los planes de ordenamiento pesquero de las algas.

Plan de mejora de la producción de las algas pardas en el sur del Perú 2011-2015

El objetivo para el desarrollo de este Capítulo es facilitar las actividades de capacitación, haciendo disponible el material adecuado y las modalidades de instrucción objetivas, directas e ilustrativas, para el entendimiento del capacitado; en este caso, el pescador artesanal dedicado a la extracción y/o recolección de algas marinas. La información analizada y plasmada en el presente documento, es producto del análisis de la información recopilada in situ y provistas por los agentes pesqueros que laboran actualmente en la producción de algas. De manera general, se consideran aspectos relacionados en la explotación de las algas y su producción actual, como argumento previo para el análisis y presentación de los sistemas mejorados de secado y molido de algas, que en muchos casos pueden ser aplicados por los pescadores. Asimismo, se describen alcances en Buenas Prácticas de Manufactura (BPM), de seguridad en el trabajo y en la implementación de una planta de molido.

Validation of the Mini Nutritional Assessment short-form (MNA-SF): a practical tool for identification of nutritional status.

OBJECTIVE: To validate a revision of the Mini Nutritional Assessment short-form (MNA(R)-SF) against the full MNA, a standard tool for nutritional evaluation. METHODS: A literature search identified studies that used the MNA for nutritional screening in geriatric patients. The contacted authors submitted original datasets that were merged into a single database. Various combinations of the questions on the current MNA-SF were tested using this database through combination analysis and ROC based derivation of classification thresholds. RESULTS: Twenty-seven datasets (n=6257 participants) were initially processed from which twelve were used in the current analysis on a sample of 2032 study participants (mean age 82.3y) with complete information on all MNA items. The original MNA-SF was a combination of six questions from the full MNA. A revised MNA-SF included calf circumference (CC) substituted for BMI performed equally well. A revised three-category scoring classification for this revised MNA-SF, using BMI and/or CC, had good sensitivity compared to the full MNA. CONCLUSION: The newly revised MNA-SF is a valid nutritional screening tool applicable to geriatric health care professionals with the option of using CC when BMI cannot be calculated. This revised MNA-SF increases the applicability of this rapid screening tool in clinical practice through the inclusion of a "malnourished" category.

Postgraduate Symposium: Positive influence of nutritional alkalinity on bone health.

There is growing evidence that consumption of a Western diet is a risk factor for osteoporosis through excess acid supply, while fruits and vegetables balance the excess acidity, mostly by providing K-rich bicarbonate-rich foods. Western diets consumed by adults generate approximately 50-100 mEq acid/d; therefore, healthy adults consuming such a diet are at risk of chronic low-grade metabolic acidosis, which worsens with age as a result of declining kidney function. Bone buffers the excess acid by delivering cations and it is considered that with time an overstimulation of this process will lead to the dissolution of the bone mineral content and hence to reduced bone mass. Intakes of K, Mg and fruit and vegetables have been associated with a higher alkaline status and a subsequent beneficial effect on bone health. In healthy male volunteers an acid-forming diet increases urinary Ca excretion by 74% and urinary C-terminal telopeptide of type I collagen (C-telopeptide) excretion by 19% when compared with an alkali (base-forming) diet. Cross-sectional studies have shown that there is a correlation between the nutritional acid load and bone health measured by bone ultrasound or dual-energy X-ray absorptiometry. Few studies have been undertaken in very elderly women (>75 years), whose osteoporosis risk is very pertinent. The EVAluation of Nutrients Intakes and Bone Ultra Sound Study has developed and validated (n 51) an FFQ for use in a very elderly Swiss population (mean age 80.4 (sd 2.99) years), which has shown intakes of key nutrients (energy, fat, carbohydrate, Ca, Mg, vitamin C, D and E) to be low in 401 subjects. A subsequent study to assess net endogenous acid production (NEAP) and bone ultrasound results in 256 women aged > or = 75 years has shown that lower NEAP (P=0.023) and higher K intake (P=0.033) are correlated with higher bone ultrasound results. High acid load may be an important additional risk factor that may be particularly relevant in very elderly patients with an already-high fracture risk. The latter study adds to knowledge by confirming a positive link between dietary alkalinity and bone health indices in the very elderly. In a further study to complement these findings it has also been shown in a group of thirty young women that in Ca sufficiency an acid Ca-rich water has no effect on bone resorption, while an alkaline bicarbonate-rich water leads to a decrease in both serum parathyroid hormone and serum C-telopeptide. Further investigations need to be undertaken to study whether these positive effects on bone loss are maintained over long-term treatment. Mineral-water consumption could be an easy and inexpensive way of helping to prevent osteoporosis and could be of major interest for long-term prevention of bone loss.
