Paciente femenino de 50 años de edad con sobrepeso e hipertensión.
Get PDFIn the following clinical case study, it is based on a 50-year-old female patient who presents with Hypertension and overweight, as well as hypertriglyceridemia and hypercholesterolemia. In the anthropometric evaluation, she presented a body mass index of 26.8 ⁄2, also a body fat percentage of 30% which according to American College of Sport Medicine is acceptable. Hypertension is a chronic, non-communicable disease and is determined by continuously elevated blood pressure. The persistent increase in high blood pressure can vary with age. If they are overweight, their blood pressure will increase further, which will harm one billion people in Latin America and Ecuador. The National Health Survey of Ecuador weighs that six out of ten Ecuadorian adults are overweight or obese. Where Galapagos shows the highest incidence of cases. In the Ecuadorian adult population obesity is higher in women 27.6% than in men 16.6%. Regarding overweight, men continue with a prevalence of 43.4% and women 37.9%. (ENSANUT, 2014). The objective of the nutritional intervention is to improve the nutritional status of the patient with hypertension and overweight through dietary treatment, which consists of a diet plan of 1800 kcal / day, hyposodium, divided into 4 meals, with which it was possible to improve the nutritional status in 3 months of treatment, where the triglyceride was reduced from 204 to 154 mg / dl and the total cholesterol from 212 to 167mg / dl. In addition, her body mass index dropped from 26.8 to 24.36 kg / m2.In the following clinical case study, it is based on a 50-year-old female patient who presents with Hypertension and overweight, as well as hypertriglyceridemia and hypercholesterolemia.

La hipertensión es una enfermedad crónica no transmisible y está determinada por la presión arterial continuamente elevada. El aumento persistente de la presión arterial alta puede variar con la edad. Si tienen sobrepeso, su presión arterial aumentará aún más, lo que perjudicará a mil millones de personas en América Latina y Ecuador. La Encuesta Nacional de Salud del Ecuador pondera que seis de cada diez adultos ecuatorianos tienen sobrepeso u obesidad. En donde Galápagos evidencia la mayor incidencia de casos. En la población ecuatoriana adulta la obesidad es más alta en mujeres 27,6% que en hombres 16,6%. En cuanto se refiere al sobrepeso, los hombres continúan con una prevalencia de 43,4% y las mujeres 37,9%. (ENSANUT, 2014). El objetivo de la intervención nutricional es mejorar el estado nutricional de la paciente con hipertensión y sobrepeso mediante el tratamiento dietético, el cual consiste un plan de alimentación de 1800 kcal/día, hiposódica, fraccionado en 4 comidas, con lo que se logró mejorar el estado nutricional en 3 meses de tratamiento, en donde el triglicérido se redujo de 204 a 154 mg/dl y el colesterol total de 212 a 167mg/dl. Además, su índice de masa corporal descendió de 26,8 a 24,36 kg/m2
Paciente masculino de 22 años de edad con Síndrome de Down y obesidad.
Get PDFDown Syndrome is a disease that is produced by a variation of the chromosome gene, due to a replica of chromosome 21, increasing to 47 in the baby; Healthy lifestyles and diet play a very important role in improving the health condition of these people; Obesity is one of the most common problems in patients with Down Syndrome. Excess visceral fat increases the risk of suffering from a metabolic disease when proper medical or nutritional control is not followed; The present study is about a 22-year-old young adult who was born with Down syndrome problems; Family history mother with Congestive Heart Failure, father with uncontrolled Arterial Hypertension; The nutritional evaluation was carried out, reflecting a BMI of 30.8 Obesity Grade I with moderate cardiovascular risk; His biochemical evaluation indicated, hypercholesterolemia and hypertriglyceridemia; His normal clinical evaluation without novelty; His dietary assessment reflected an excess consumption of sugars and saturated fats, so the doctor refers him to the nutrition service for consultation because obesity is a health problem that can be corrected through healthy lifestyles. An individualized nutritional intervention plan is carried out for the patient with Down Syndrome and Grade I Obesity, where the family members are explained the guidelines and recommendations that they should follow to improve the patient's health condition; A normocaloric diet was prescribed, low in saturated fat, high in fractionated fiber in 5 meal times with the aim of reducing excess body weight and preventing future complications.Down Syndrome is a disease that is produced by a variation of the chromosome gene, due to a replica of chromosome 21, increasing to 47 in the baby; Healthy lifestyles and diet play a very important role in improving the health condition of these people; Obesity is one of the most common problems in patients with Down Syndrome.

Going Beyond Counting First Authors in Author Co-citation Analysis
Get PDFThe present study examines one of the fundamental aspects of author co-citation analysis (ACA) - the way co-citation
counts are defined. Co-citation counting provides the data on which all subsequent statistical analyses and mappings
are based, and we compare ACA results based on two different types of co-citation counting - the traditional type that
only counts the first one among a cited work's authors on the one hand and a non-traditional type that takes into
account the first 5 authors of a cited work on the other hand. Results indicate that the picture produced through this non-traditional author co-citation counting contains more coherent author groups and is therefore considerably clearer. However, this picture represents fewer specialties in the research field being studied than that produced through the traditional first-author co-citation counting when the same number of top-ranked authors is selected and analyzed. Reasons for these effects are discussed
Variations on the Author
Get PDF“Variations on the Author” discusses two of Eduardo Coutinho’s recent films (Um Dia na Vida, from 2010, and Últimas Conversas, posthumously released in 2015) and their contribution to the general question of documentary authorship. The director’s filmography is characterized by a consistent yet self-effacing form of authorial self-inscription: Coutinho often features as an interviewer that rather than express opinions propels discourses; an interviewer that is good at listening. This mode of self-inscription characterizes him as an author who is not expressive but who is nonetheless markedly present on the screen. In Um Dia na Vida, however, Coutinho is completely absent form the image, while Últimas Conversas, on the contrary, includes a confessional prologue that moves the director from the margins to the center of his films. This article examines the ways in which these works stand out in the filmography of a director who offers new insights into the notion of cinematic authorship
Appropriate Similarity Measures for Author Cocitation Analysis
Get PDFWe provide a number of new insights into the methodological discussion about author cocitation analysis. We first argue that the use of the Pearson correlation for measuring the similarity between authors’ cocitation profiles is not very satisfactory. We then discuss what kind of similarity measures may be used as an alternative to the Pearson correlation. We consider three similarity measures in particular. One is the well-known cosine. The other two similarity measures have not been used before in the bibliometric literature. Finally, we show by means of an example that our findings have a high practical relevance.information science;Pearson correlation;cosine;similarity measure;author cocitation analysis
Dispelling the Myths Behind First-author Citation Counts
Get PDFWe conducted a full-scale evaluative citation analysis study of scholars in the XML research field to explore just how different from each other author rankings resulting from different citation counting methods actually are, and to demonstrate the capability of emerging data and tools on the Web in supporting more realistic citation counting methods. Our results contest some common arguments for the continued
use of first-author citation counts in the evaluation of scholars, such as high correlations between author rankings by first-author citation counts and other citation
counting methods, and high costs of using more realistic citation counting methods that are not well-supported by the ISI databases. It is argued that increasingly available digital full text research papers make it possible for citation analysis studies to go beyond what the ISI databases have directly supported and to employ more
sophisticated methods
koamabayili/VECTRON-author-checklist: VECTRON author checklist
No full textWe have done our best to complete the author checklist relating to the use of animals in the hut study. Note that the objective for the hut study was to evaluate the IRS treatment applications for residual efficacy against Anopheles mosquitoes, including the local An. coluzzii mosquito population. Cows were only used to attract mosquitoes into the huts and no tests were carried out directly on the cows. The author checklist is intended for use with studies where experiments are carried out on animals, which is why we have had such difficulty in completing this for the hut study, as many of the questions do not relate to how the cows were used
