The article summarizes the book "El camino obrero. Historia del sindicalismo mexicano, 1907-2017" by Saúl Escobar Toledo, highlighting the importance of unionism in Mexico and the need to understand its history in order to understand the present. It mentions the absence of the labor movement in national recovery projects and how improvements in wages and labor legislation have not been the result of pressure from organized workers. The book covers different periods in the history of the labor movement in Mexico, from 1915 to 1982, and analyzes corporatism, repression, and violence imposed on workers. It also addresses the arrival of neoliberalism, labor reforms, and union resistance. The author emphasizes the importance of building a unionism that responds to the country's needs.

Nociplasticity represents a paradigmatic advancement in the understanding and management of pain, particularly chronic pain. This concept refers to the alteration of nociception that leads to an increased sensitivity to pain without clear evidence of specific tissue damage or known somatosensory nervous system dysfunction. It is distinguished from traditionally recognized nociceptive and neuropathic mechanisms, explaining chronic painful conditions that defy previous classifications. Its research focuses on the neuroplastic changes within the central nervous system (CNS) that result in an altered perception of pain, and the adoption of the term reflects an evolution in the understanding of pain, emphasizing the importance of neurobiological factors in the experience of chronic pain. As research progresses, findings must translate into improved clinical practices, offering hope to millions of people suffering from chronic pain without an identifiable physical cause. Nociplasticity not only represents a promising area of research but also serves as a reminder of the need for innovative and personalized therapeutic approaches in pain management. The purpose of this mini-review is to analyze, based on the literature, how the definition and inclusion of nociplastic pain into the pain classification were developed. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

The influence of stress, anxiety, and depression (SAD) on academic procrastination (AP) in the context of COVID-19 was analyzed; a predictive study in 1069 Peruvian students aged 18 to 25 from a public university recruited by non- probabilistic sampling and assessed using the Academic Procrastination Scale and the DASS-21 Scale. The results reflect significant differences in academic procrastination in favor of non-scholarship holders; likewise, for stress, anxiety, and depression in favor of: a) women, b) non-scholarship holders, c) without COVID-19 infection, and d) with family losses due to COVID-19; likewise, a positive correlation between AP and SAD (with emphasis on depression); this correlation is strengthened in the network analysis for the scholarship holder condition. Finally, regarding the analysis of structural equations: anxiety and stress are related at 0.83; both variables explain depression at 63%. On the other hand, depression is presented as a cause of PA at 0.41 and this model has an explanatory value of 17% (with adjustment indices of CMIN/df = 0.305, CFI = 1.000, SRMR = 0.006, RMSEA = 0.000 and PClose = 0.974). The study reflects the predictive capacity of the E-A-D in the behavior of higher education students regarding their academic responsibility. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

In the food and beverage industry, the presence of mycotoxins in cereals has driven the development of procedures to ensure the safety and quality of the final product. However, at the national level, this aspect has not yet been addressed in microbreweries. This research focused on determining the presence and concentration of deoxynivalenol (DON) in malt used for craft beer production, as well as the effect of pasteurization and ohmic heating on this mycotoxin. The study was conducted in two stages. In the first stage, the presence of DON in the malt was analyzed using the ELISA analytical technique with a detection level of 0,25ppm/5,0. Subsequently, in the second stage, wort was prepared using this malt, and the effects of pasteurization, as a traditional method, and ohmic heating, as an alternative method, on the mycotoxin were evaluated. For this purpose, an experimental ohmic heating equipment was developed, in which time and voltage parameters were established. The results showed a slight reduction in one of the wort batches when ohmic heating was applied to the mycotoxin, with a concentration of 0.057 µL, compared to pasteurization, where the concentration remained the same at 0.058 µL. These findings suggest that pasteurization maintains stable mycotoxin concentration levels; however, the combination with ohmic heating may be effective in mitigating the presence of mycotoxins in the wort base of craft beer, thereby contributing to its safety.

The central postulate refers to an exercise of recovery of the category of divine philanthropy in Gregory of Nyssa, from which a connection is established with Christian life, as its model and foundation. The process starts from an exploration of the category in question in Greek philosophy, then, the use given to it in the Judeo-Christian environment, particularly in Philo of Alexandria, Clement of Alexandria, Origen of Alexandria and Athanasius of Alexandria. The exercise of reflection on the connection between divine philanthropy and Christian life can serve as an inspiration to redefine Christian life at the beginning of this century and millennium.

In this paper, a new estimate of the Epiclassic chronological interval (6th to 9th centuries) is proposed for the archaeological site of San José de Los Ranchos, located in Los Altos de Jalisco, near the city of Lagos de Moreno. This site is part of the cultural space of the western Mexico. The date was obtained through an archaeomagnetic analysis of ceramic materials from a cist-type tomb found at old hacienda located in the foothills of the Sierra Alta, next to the valley of the Lagos River. This archaeological site is a settlement of farmers, possibly linked to neighboring sites such as El Cerrito in the town of El Cuarenta; Los Cerritos in Lagos de Moreno and El Cóporo in the neighboring state of Guanajuato. The materials recovered in the tomb, consisting of pottery, shell beads and miniature zoomorphic and anthropomorphic figurines. The new periodization allows us to date the beginning of the Mesoamerican occupation of the Lagos River valley from the 6th century, in addition to dates obtained by previous investigations. In this way, it can be established that the villages in the valley date from the end of the Mesoamerican classic period, with its peak in the epiclassic era and possibly concluding at the beginning of the postclassic period.

This work determined the ecological footprint of the National Center for Applied Electromagnetism, a science institution attached at the Universidad de Oriente, Santiago de Cuba. The categories analyzed to carry out the calculations of CO2 emissions and the ecological footprint were: Water, Built surface, Electricity Consumption, Mobility, Paper, Non-hazardous solid waste, Hazardous waste, Food, Services and Production of Magnetic Conditioners. The methodology of Doménech (2009) and the methodology for calculating the ecological footprint in universities of López Álvarez et al. (2009) of the Sustainable Development Office, University of Santiago de Compostela were used as a basis. The results obtained for the year 2022 reflect that the National Center for Applied Electromagnetism needs an area of 52,984 ha/year of forest to regenerate the natural resources that the center uses for the satisfaction of it social demand. Similarly, it requires 89,096 hag standard forest to assimilate CO2 emissions. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

The use of cardiac electronic devices has increased over the last decades, which has generated an increase in the number of electrode extraction procedures, as a greater number of patients with multiple comorbidities undergo cardiac electronic device implantation. Currently, the percutaneous technique is preferable in most patients, given its excellent clinical results and lower morbidity and mortality compared to surgical extraction. Nonetheless, some clinical scenarios increase procedural difficulty, including anatomical variants, or the need to extract passive fixation leads. We present a case of a patient with pacemaker due to complete atrioventricular block, with diaphragmatic stimulation caused by a passive fixation ventricular electrode that was implanted in a posterolateral vein of the coronary sinus through a persistent left superior vena cava, who underwent successful transvenous lead extraction.

Introduction. Bariatric and metabolic surgery (BMS) has shown its efficacy in achieving short-term weight loss. However, there is limited evidence regarding long-term clinical and metabolic outcomes. Methods. Retrospective longitudinal study with patients who underwent laparoscopic Roux-en-Y gastric bypass (RYGB) and sleeve gastrectomy (SG) interventions in Bogotá, Colombia, between 2013 and 2021. Weight change, comorbidity control, and metabolic outcomes were collected at the onset, 3-, 6-, and 12-month post-surgery, and annually up to the fifth year. Comorbidity control rates were assessed using the Kaplan-Meier test. A Cox proportional hazards model was used to evaluate the effect of covariates on weight regain. Results. Of 1092 patients with BMS (71.4% SG and 28.6% RYGB), 67% were women, with a median age of 48 years, BMI 35.5 kg/m². After five years of follow-up, the control rate in diabetes mellitus was 65.5%, in hypertension 56.6%, and dyslipidemia 43.6%. The weight regain rate was 28% with no differences between SG vs RYGB (p=0.482). The mean time to nadir weight was 14 months. Age at the time of BMS was the best independent predictor of weight regain (HR=1.02, 95%CI: 1.01-1.04), but with a modest clinical effect. Conclusion. BMS is safe and shows long-term benefits in weight loss and control of comorbidities in Colombian population. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
