Objectives: The pancreatic ducts and duodenal papillae present variable location and morphology. This variability must be known when performing endoscopic, surgical or radiological procedures that involve them; necessary in the diagnosis and treatment of bilio-digestive pathologies. The objective of the present study is to review the anatomy of these structures, record possible variations and carry a review of the literature. Material and method: A descriptive, observational anatomical study was carried out, in which 40 duodenum-pancreatic blocks were dissected from adult corpses of both sex preserved in formaldehyde. We recorded the frequency, location and morphology of both duodenal papillae, the prevalence of the main and accessory pancreatic ducts and the site of junction between the two ducts. These findings were compared with classic and recent literature. Results: The percentage relative frequency of the major and minor duodenal papillae was 100% and 87.5% respectively. The first was predominantly located at the second portion of the duodenum, in its middle third and in the posteromedial sector (82.5%); while the minor papilla was found in the upper third of the second duodenal portion, anteromedial sector (80%). The main and accessory pancreatic ducts were found in 97.5% and 87.5% of the cases, respectively. The junction of the pancreatic ducts was found in 54.3%. Conclusions: Classical anatomy prevailed in the studied structures. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

Both through dissections in cadaveric material and through imaging methods, multiple anatomical variants have been described in the vascular system, the superior cava system being no exception. These congenital or acquired modifications may difficult the performance of endovascular procedures, such as the placement of central venous lines. For safe performance of such procedures, knowledge of these variants is essential. This study reports the case of an individual with Ebstein's disease surgically corrected by a tricuspid valve replacement and bidirectional cavopulmonary anastomosis (Glenn procedure), who was admitted for placement of a long-term central venous device. Pre, intra and postoperative imaging studies allow mapping the patient's anatomy, planning and performing the surgical act as well as control of the devices placed during evolution.

Introduction: The menisci are two fibrocartilages intended to improve coaptation between the articular surfaces of the femorotibial knee joint. In an inconsistent manner, these are united, at the level of their anterior horns, by the transverse ligament. In magnetic resonance imaging, the insertion of the transverse ligament can give rise to a false image (pitfall) of a tear of the anterior horn of the menisci, by generating a high signal line between the ligament and the anterior horn. The objective of the present work is to determine the frequency of the transverse ligament in cadaveric material and in magnetic resonance imaging. Materials and method: 35 knees were dissected fromadult corpses fixated in formaldehyde, of both sexes, 18 right and 17 left, without ostensible osteoarticular pathology. 195 magnetic resonances of the knees of adult patients, performed since January 2019 until October 2020 at the Hospital de Clínicas were reviewed. In both cases the frequency of the transverse ligament was recorded. Results: Cadaveric study: the transverse ligament was found in 25 cases (71.4%). Imaging study: 2 magnetic resonances had exclusion criteria. The transverse ligament was found in 105 cases (54.4%). Conclusion: The transverse ligament was found in more than half of the individuals studied, regardless of the method. This is relevant considering the clinical and imaging importance of the ligament.

Introduction: the anterolateral abdominal wall includes 4 muscles: external oblique, internal oblique, transverse abdominis and rectus abdominis, which allow it to participate in diverse functions. These can be affected by an incisional hernia. When they achieve huge size, its repair may represent great challenge to the general surgeon. Eventhroplasty using nonabsorbable mesh is the gold standard treatment, but it can require additional procedures. Component separation technique is a group of anatomic-based procedures which allow the increase of abdominal volume. The aim of this report was to reproduce the component separation technique in cadaveric material, and a literature review. Materials and Methods: two adult cadavers of both sexes were used, fixed in formaldehyde. The external oblique muscle was liberated as described in the anterior component separation technique. Posterior component separation was made through a retro-rectal plane, and then progressing the dissection laterally. Results: Medial advancement of the muscles was achieved. Conclusions: knowledge of anterolateral abdominal wall anatomy is the basis for performing component separation technique. Training on cadaveric material is one of the first steps for surgical training. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

Introduction: The Spanish Ministry of Health, in November 2018, notified the officially adoption of the front-of-pack nutrition label Nutri-Score which will allow consumers to easily judge the nutritional quality of food at the time of purchase and to encourage industrialists to improve the nutritional composition of food. This article synthesizes the scientific work pertaining to the validation of the nutritional profile that underlies the computation of Nutri-Score and works that demonstrate its effectiveness and superiority in comparison to other existing logos or proposed by food companies. Likewise, it highlights its development in Spain and within the European Union and responds to the fake-news raised by its detractors. It also introduces the European Citizens' Initiative to make it compulsory in Europe. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

The information provided in this work is a scientific look at the state of the art of growing rambutan (Nephelium lappaceum L.) in Mexico, with special emphasis on its production as a main element in a multicultural system and the use of coverage as alternatives agroecological After a thorough review of the written information, it was found that this fruit is a viable option to increase the biodiversity of agroecosystems with tangible socioeconomic contributions and as an alternative contribution to monocultures such as African palm in the country with special significance for the Chiapas State, the establishment of this fruit as a food crop, for its high nutritional value, could be within the options as a regulatory food, within the agroecosystems, likewise, it constitutes an alternative production necessary for its adaptability to the manifest effects of irregularities as a result of climate change. In the present work a description is made about the development of rambutan cultivation in Mexico. The main scientific results obtained in the country are addressed to achieve productive and marketable successes at national and international level, the main obstacles and opportunities for their production are exposed by conventional and agroecological methods, their advantages and disadvantages. The results of a diagnosis made in a town of Villa Comaltitlán Municipality in Chiapas are presented. Finally, the reasons why it is necessary to start a training process based on the results of the investigations initiated a decade ago of having established the rambutan in this locality are observed.

One of the most cited key aspects of the current world is the dynamic and constant development of information and communication technologies. Their growing influence in various areas of our lives is not unimportant for language education. Given the new opportunities and growing expectations of foreign language students, multimedia tools are becoming an integral part of the language learning process, and their conscious and effective use has become an obvious priority of the teaching of foreign languages. The described in the article characteristics of the moodle e-kerbing platform are an attempt to analyse the possibilities and conditions that the platform creates for the different participants of the glothodidactic process.

Biodiversity is one of the fundamental principles of agroecology, and polycultures are generally more efficient than monocultures. This research was carried out with the objective of evaluating the efficiency of land use with short cycle crops intercalated in a rambutan plantation and with it, their socioeconomic contributions. Semester crop planting began in November 2009. Short cycle crops were used: sesame (Sesamum lapense L.), maize (Zea mays L.), bean (Phaseolus vulgaris L.) and pumkin (Cucurbita pepo L.), during the first three years of the establishment of rambutan. The sowings were carried out until the first half of 2012, in Villa Comaltitlan Chiapas, Mexico. The productive efficiency of planted intercropping in monoculture was compared, for which the equivalent land use index IET (according its acronyms in Spanish) was used. Polyculture systems were more efficient than monocultural plantings, presenting higher IET values than the unit and without affecting the yields of the main crop. It was demonstrated that associating short cycle crops with the rambutan during the first three years of its establishment, allows obtaining diverse crops with bi-annual plantings, obtaining different agricultural products generating additional income, while it makes possible to improve the food security of the peasant families of Soconusco, Chiapas. On the other hand, the intercalation of crops of short cycle in rambutan, indicates that technically it is possible and economically profitable. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

One of the factors influencing the current crisis affecting journalism as an industry and as a profession is the movement away from a defense of social interests. The fourth power has ceased to exercise its role as a defender of social interests, a mission entrusted to it for centuries by society, and has become a system where obtaining benefits takes precedence over a commitment to public welfare. The authors propose several initiatives to be taken into consideration, especially in the case of professionals, to convert journalism, once again, into a social service. This is what society wants and needs. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

The objective of this work was to compare vegetative and reproductive development and biomass accumulation in four maize varieties under different degrees of water stress in the Postgraduate college, Mexico, 2003. The varieties used were: Zacatecas 58 original (Zo), Cafime original (Co) and, Zacatecas 58 SM19 (Z19), and Cafime SM16 (C16). Drought levels were applied by allowing the soil to reach the permanent wilting point and avoiding irrigation for 4, 10 and 20 days of drought. This was followed by the immediate application of irrigation to allow plant rehydration, which continued until harvest. Plant growth ceased as a consequence of drought in the four varieties, and resumed after irrigation in such a way that droughted plants equaled and in some cases surpassed irrigated plants, as in Z19. Days to flowering and reproductive asynchrony were higher in Z19 and C16 than in Zo and co. Total biomass was less affected in the improved than in original varieties. Harvest index fell less in original than in improved varieties with drought severity. The results indicate that varieties improved by mass selection under water stress deployed a "dormancy" resistance mechanism through which plant growth ceases under severe drought, and then resumes when the water is relieved by irrigation or rain.
