Binge-watching is a phenomenon that involves the action of watching several chapters of a television series in digital format continuously, which produces effects to which students attribute meanings related to their occupational performance patterns. This being so, it is worth asking: What are the meanings that university students attribute to the effect of binge-watching on their occupational performance patterns? To this end, the article examines how this phenomenon occurs from a qualitative approach, collecting intentional data from 13 informants through semi-structured interviews. Identifying categories of analysis regarding the influence of binge-watching in students in their habits, routines, roles, feelings and emotions linked to it. As well as emerging categories such as the influence of COVID-19 on students' social interaction. The article manages to identify that the binge-watching affects in the habits and routines of university students, causing feelings of guilt, on the other hand, facilitates social interaction. It highlights the need to attempt research to understand how binge-watching influences occupational roles in different age ranges. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

This article discusses the temporal structure of daily life in two historical neighborhoods in San José City. These neighborhoods are Cristo Rey and Escalante. This paper shows how this structure or architecture behaves like a political time-economy through the time. The logic that organizes daily time in both neighborhood spaces is the social division of labor and the social division of gender. The article also shows that the people who live in Cristo Rey experiment daily routine. And those who live in Escalante neighborhood have flexible time. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

This article analyzes Delibes' diaristic trilogy, whose absolute protagonist is the caretaker Lorenzo: Diario de un cazador (1955), Diario de un emigrante (1958) and Diario de un jubilado (1995). The choice of the fictitious diary is strongly linked with the author's psychological insight into a character whose personality barely develops, with the day-to-day dimension of life and the ironical use of the colloquial register, a symbol of Lorenzo's narrow-mindedness.

The purpose of the research, whose results are presented below, is to understand the role played by the professional practice of journalists in ensuring the pluralism in two specific contexts: the national press and the regional press in the south in Chile. It was sampled five national and three newspapers of the southern region, to which an analysis matrix based on the criteria of newsworthiness and work with journalists sources was applied to define the nature of the final result of journalistic work: the news. Here the most important research results are presented. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

Introduction. In trauma, injuries to face, head and neck are relatively frequents; the nose is the most prominent part of the face and has little protection and support. It is romper easier facial bone and not uncommon to be most frequent in present fracture by some traumatism, however jaw fractures are the second pathology more frequent in connection with facial trauma, and the main cancellations of attention by the maxillofacial surgeon. Objective. To know the frequency of patients diagnosed with fracture or fractures of mandible, in the service of surgery Maxillofacial of the Central Military Hospital, in the period from January 2009 to November 20, 2012. Material and methods. This study was developed in the maxillofacial surgery outpatient facilities and file clinician of the military Central Hospital. Records of patients who presented as main diagnostic fracture of mandible, served by service surgery Maxillofacial of the Central Military Hospital in the period from January 2009 to November 20, 2012 were reviewed. Results. Based on data obtained from the electronic clinical record available to the Central Military Hospital, reviewed the records of 90 patients who were diagnosed with fracture of mandible with key international S02.6, same treaties with different behavior that treating, depended on the characteristics of the fracture and the service experience of which 55 (61.1%) were assessed and treated by maxillofacial surgery service.

Introduction: The level of knowledge of the validity and safety of diagnostic tests is important to correctly apply and find out whether this is to rule out or detect a disease. However, no studies have been found, nor instruments to measure this knowledge. Objective: to design and validate an instrument to measure the level of knowledge about the validity and safety of diagnostic tests which are frequently used by general physicians in Chiclayo 2011. Material and Methods: We designed a questionnaire of 29 questions, 20 of which correspond to the clinical dimension and 9 to the theoretical dimension. We analyzed the content validity through the assessment by experts. The pilot test was conducted, interviewing 34 general physicians using the questionnaire, of which reliability was evaluated by analyzing the internal consistency with Cronbach's alpha method and the intraclass correlation coefficient (ICC), as well as Kaiser-Meyer-Olkin (KMO) measure of sampling adequacy and Bartlett's test of sphericity for factor analysis. Results: Cronbach's alpha of the questionnaire was 0.76, for the clinical dimension, 0.62 and the theoretical dimension, 0.65. The ICC had a value of 76%. The KMO value was 0.207, so the factor analysis should not be performed and result of Bartlett's test was 0.00, which is acceptable. Conclusion: The study provides a reliable instrument to measure knowledge about the most common diagnostic tests applied by general physicians. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

This study aims to overcome some authors' feeling that "everyday life" is a vague, problematic and polysemous concept which, for those reasons, is unreachable and even imperceptible. This task is more relevant at present, considering the central importance that "everyday life" category has gained in contemporary studies. We have approached this task starting from the analysis of different problems: first, the question of the universality of this concept; second, its narrative nature, its heterogeneity and necessary homogeneity (regulations); third, the possible motivations; fourth, its interruption or break down; then, its difference and proximity to the concept of "routine" and; finally, its consequences: disenchantment and boredom.

Objective: To elaborate optimal anti-tuberculosis regimens following drug susceptibility testing (DST) to isoniazid (H) and rifampicin (R). Design: 12 311 M. tuberculosis strains (National Health Institute of Peru 2007-2009) were classified in four groups according H and R resistance. In each group the sensitivity to ethambutol (E), pirazinamide (Z), streptomycin (S), kanamycin (Km), capreomycin (Cm), ciprofloxacin (Cfx), ethionamide (Eto), cicloserine (Cs) and p-amino salicilic acid (PAS) was determined. Based on resistance profiles, domestic costs, and following WHO guidelines, we elaborated and selected optimal putative regimens for each group. The potential efficacy (PE) variable was defined as the proportion of strains sensitive to at least three or four drugs for each regimen evaluated. Results: Selected regimes with the lowest cost, and highest PE of containing 3 and 4 effective drugs for TB sensitive to H and R were: HRZ (99,5%) and HREZ (99,1%), respectively; RZECfx (PE=98,9%) and RZECfxKm (PE=97,7%) for TB resistant to H; HZECfx (96,8%) and HZECfxKm (95,4%) for TB resistant to R; and EZCfxKmEtoCs (82.9%) for MDR-TB. Conclusion: Based on resistance to H and R it was possible to select anti-tuberculosis regimens with high probability of success. This proposal is a feasible alternative to tackle tuberculosis in Peru where the access to rapid DST to H and R is improving progressively. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

This study reflects critically on the conceptual contributions made by the evolutionary theory of the firm. Its contributions are compared with the limited scope of neoclassical theory to explain the internal factors of company development, as they involve a technical production function. At the same time, the article is especially concerned to clarify the main points that define the company's evolutionary purpose, discussing the conceptual and explicative progress of its postulates and its intrinsic limitations. It concludes with a conceptual balance of the main merits of the evolutionary theory of the firm and the weak points exhibited in this theoretical current. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
