The article "Trajectories and crossroads of development theories in Latin America" analyzes the evolution of economic thought in the region over 40 years, since the crisis of 1982. It is structured in four chapters that address currents such as Marxism, structuralism, neo-structuralism, and post-development. It highlights the importance of revisiting Latin American thought in the face of current challenges such as climate change and neoliberal globalization, with examples from Argentina, Ecuador, Uruguay, and El Salvador.

The School Science Activity recognises the need for science education that provides citizens with a worldview about which they can think, act and communicate. However, science teachers, especially in physics, continue to use transmissive teaching approaches and show evidence of difficulties in implementing didactic approaches such as modeling in the classroom. Some reasons include the complexity of designing sequences under this approach and the lack of comprehension of the role of modeling competences that are developed in this kind of implementation. This research analyses how the ideas of physics teachers in training in Chile change concerning modeling and its competences, after participating in a course oriented towards this approach. At the end of the course, progress is identified in comprehending the aims of the modeling competences of expression, evaluation and application of a model. The results also highlight the importance of training future teachers through classes focused on modeling. To this purpose, some design and implementation guidelines are proposed.

Since the approval of the Political Constitution of the United Mexican States in 1917, The 3rd constitutional article has undergone 11 reforms, the last one on May 15, 2019 (Gonzalez, 2021). This reform was founded on an alternative policy model underpinned by a model of improvement that promotes the defense of public schools and the fulfillment of the right to education. On this premise, Mexican regulations put educational improvement at the center of its debate and introduced changes focused on improvement within the framework of the National System for the Continuous Improvement of Education under the coordination of a new agency: the National Commission for the Continuous Improvement of Education (in Spanish Comisión Nacional para la Mejora Continua de la Educación). The purpose of this article is to examine the progress and challenges identified by this agency to rethink the process of educational improvement in the context of the transition of government. We are interested in providing elements of analysis to evaluate the continuity of the improvements in the framework of the educational project. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

BACKGROUND: Heat stroke is the result of the imbalance between the metabolic production of heat and physiological measures to guarantee its elimination. It is characterized by a failure in thermoregulatory mechanisms, manifesting as hyperthermia and altered neurological status after exposure to high ambient temperatures. The highest average temperatures in Mexico occur in the months of July and August, for 30 years each decade has been warmer due to the release of CO2 and other greenhouse gases. In 2012 the nominal registry of damages to health was implemented in Mexico, where an increase in the reporting of cases of heat stroke has been noted. CLINICAL CASE: An 81-year-old male patient who was admitted to the Emergency department with a diagnosis of heat stroke, secondary to exposure to high ambient temperatures for more than 2 hours, triggering hyperthermia, neurological deterioration, and supraventricular tachycardia. CONCLUSIONS: Prolonged exposure to high temperatures impairs the thermoregulatory response, so the history of exposure is important for clinical suspicion and timely initiation of treatment.

Pregnancy and lactation represent a complex stage from a nutritional point of view, since energy, protein and micronutrient requirements increase during these stages. The literature describes that a well-planned plant-based diet can be sufficient in energy, macronutrients and micronutrients, with the exception of vitamin B12 and possibly n3 polyunsaturated fatty acids, mainly EPA and DHA. During the last few years, adherence to this diet has increased rapidly in the population, so the main objective of this article is to review the current evidence on the intake and concentrations of vitamin B12, EPA and DHA during pregnancy and lactation in women following a plant-based diet. A literature search was performed in PubMed, Scopus, Web of Science and Ovid MedLine using free terms and MESH. Eleven articles were selected in this review. Well-planned vegetarian and vegan diets, with adequate supplementation of vitamin B12, EPA and DHA, are compatible during pregnancy and lactation, being a positive predictor of their content in breast milk. A similar situation was observed in plasma levels in women supplemented with B12. However, it is important to continue with research in this area that considers an adequate dietary anamnesis, integral evaluation of nutritional status, estimation of nutritional requirements and an individualized nutritional plan.

Introduction. Abdominal pain is one of the main reasons for admission to the emergency room and one of the most frequent causes is diverticular disease, which increases its prevalence in the elderly. However, diverticulitis of the small bowel is rare and in most cases asymptomatic. However, perforation of an intestinal diverticulum is a common complication of this pathology and should be considered as a differential diagnosis of acute abdomen in this population group. Clinical case. A 71-year-old male patient presented with abdominal pain of sudden onset, with signs of peritoneal irritation. Given his hemodynamic deterioration, he was taken to surgery and in the exploratory laparotomy an acute perforated diverticulitis of the jejunum and distal ileum was found. Results. The patient had an adequate postoperative evolution, without readmissions. Conclusion. Acute jejuno-ileal diverticulitis is an important but uncommon cause of intestinal perforation. There are very few cases reported in the literature, which makes it a diagnostic challenge for the emergency physician and general surgeon. However, it should be considered as a differential diagnosis in older adults with acute abdomen. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
