Air quality in the Alto San Jorge region is being affected by mining, with environmental impacts associated to human health problems. The objective of the study was to analyze the environmental fragility of the ecosystems to identify and relate the effects on environmental health as a consequence of the emission of atmospheric pollutants. The methodology began with the physical and geospatial characterization of the area and the attribution of weighted weights through the hierarchical analytical process. The weighted summation of the information layers was performed in gis, defining ecosystem fragility classes based on Ross (1994). In this way, the threats and risks due to atmospheric contamination for SO2, NO2, PM2,5 and PM10 were determined. The results showed the existence of medium to high and high risk for SO2 in the areas surrounding the urban centers. For NO2, the risk was homogeneous at an intermediate level for the entire area, and for particulate matter (2.5μm and 10μm), from medium to high and high due to the influence of ferronickel and coal mining. This study indicates the need to apply timely prevention, mitigation and/or control measures for this risk. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

In Quevedo's poetic corpus, the function of the sight conforms to a great variety of themes, registers and perspectives and we can distinguish two basic typologies: one, with a rhetorical nature, is based on the argumentative schemes of evidentia; the other, with a thematic character, presupposes the elaboration of topical motifs through ingenious puns. Besides being important compositional techniques, strategies of visualization are also a way to contemplate the world through literary memories and establish a peculiar intertextual dialogue with the authors of the past.

The quality of water from any specific source can be evaluated by measuring physical, chemical and biological parameters. Those values, when compared with regulatory limits, determine the danger to human and ecosystem health. However, this technique can involve high costs and operational complications. Geographic Information Systems (GIS) are useful tools for evaluating environmental problems in a hydrographic basin, making strong estimates for the identification and analysis of possible impacts on water quality, based on in the holistic study of the environmental characteristics and dynamics of Land Use and Land Cover Change. The aim of this research was to analyze the environmental fragility of the Sinú river basin due to water resource contamination, as a tool for strengthening water governance and the water resources integral management. A water quality map by Inverse Distance Weighting (IDW) method was made from Water Quality Index (WQI) results. Afterward, a survey among experts was carried through the Analytical Hierarchical Method (AHP) to assess the environmental attributes that constitute the map. The results showed the Sinú river basin has a very homogeneous average quality throughout its trajectory, and the most fragile areas are located in the lower Sinú region. This indicates the importance of direct mitigation measures that allow ecological restoration promote adaptation to change climate and strengthen the integral water resource management.

Argument mining allows, through software tools, to obtain which are the arguments expressed by the authors in a given text. This article aims to make an analysis of the arguments expressed by users on Twitter in relation to the referendum of October 1, 2017 using the MultiStanceCat dataset provided in the shared task organized at IberEval 2018. Since the tools of argumentation mining work mostly in English, it was necessary to build a neural translation system with post-editing that allows to translate of tweets from Spanish and Catalan to English. The results of argumentation mining on the translated tweets have shown to obtain a minimum percentage of argumentation in all the communities. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

Unpublished data from Raúl Martínez Crovetto on plant practices and meanings among the Aonik'enk people of Santa Cruz documented during 1967, were found at the Institute of Botany of the Northeast (IBONE). Its value is a priori remarkable in view of the limited background on ethnobotany of this human group. The aims of this study were to value, analyze, update and interpret the voluminous set of information documented at fieldwork by Martínez Crovetto, to compile and classify the scattered data found in the literature on the subject, and to compare these data with those referred to for the Selk'nam (onas) of Tierra del Fuego. The methodology corresponds to historical ethnobotany, which considers data from the past as a primary source of information on which the classical ethnobotanical method is applied. A total of 163 data on Aonik'enk ethnobotany from Raúl Martínez Crovetto's field records were valued, as well as 105 from published secondary sources consulted. In total, 244 different ethnobotanical data about this people are referred for 117 botanical taxa. Most ethnobotanic uses were food (90; 36.7%) and medicinal (81; 33%). The coincidence between the Aonik'enk and Selk'nam data exceeds 60%, indicating the existence of links between their ethnobotany. This contribution is the greatest input into Aonik'enk ethnobotany both for the amount and diversity of data compiled, and for the volume of new unpublished data informed. Edible uses of Rumex species roots and of Chuquiraga avellanedae aerial part are cited here for the first time for Argentina, as well as Mulguraea tridens roots for making of combs.

Introduction: Leptospirosis is an endemic bacterial infection in Colombia. The clinical course could be variable and occasionally fatal. There are few studies in Colombia about severe cases of leptospirosis. Objectives: Describe the demographical and clinical characteristics in patients with diagnosis of leptospira, and their management in a high complexity hospital. Materials and methods: Descriptive retrospective study that includes patients with serologic diagnostic of leptospirosis between 2010 and 2016. Results: 87 patients were analyzed, 74% were men, and 84% were older than 18 years. 35% had a comorbidity, the most common were arterial Hypertension (16%) and Diabetes Mellitus (9%). The most frequent symptoms were: fever, nausea, fatigue, myalgia, arthralgia and abdominal pain. The majority required hospitalization in general wards (61%) with a median of stay of 6 days. 34% required intensive care unit, with a median stay of 5 days. The mortality was 1.1% (n=1). All patients received treatment with either ceftriaxone or doxicicline. Conclusions: Leptospira infections have the risk of having a late diagnosis because of none specific clinical presentation that generates a high number of differential diagnoses. The early management in the intensive care unit could decrease the incidence of complications and the mortality in patients with leptospirosis. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

The aim of this article is to identify, update, and analyze medical ethnobotany data on Criollos groups from the Humid Chaco region found in the 1921 National Folklore Survey (NFS). Since plants are mentioned with their vernacular names, identification was based on an exhaustive bibliographical search of their respective scientific name. A total of 816 medical uses, corresponding to ? of those recorded by NFS in 1921, were registered and assigned to 238 botanical taxa. Medical uses were classified into 16 categories, in which the digestive system, respiratory system and vulnerary remedies were the most represented. This classification included 131 kinds of therapeutical prescriptions, the most represented of which were: antitussive, stomachic, blood depurative, cicatrizant, against "empacho", and for healing toothaches. To our knowledge these results represent the most important contribution to the medical ethnobotany and ethnomedicine of Criollos from Humid Chaco. We also conclude that Criollos from Chaco and Santa Fe provinces (within the Humid Chaco region) belong to a biocultural complex clearly distinguishable from those present in the Northwest of the Corrientes province.
