Cancer in dogs is a multifactorial disease of great importance in veterinary medicine. This study aimed to
characterize the diet as well as the epidemiological behavior of cancer in six clinics in the south of Santiago de
Cali, integrating clinical and demographic variables. An observational, descriptive and retrospective study was
conducted based on clinical and histopathological records. As for the demographic variables, age, sex, race and
reproductive status were evaluated, while clinical data included the type of diet and localization of neoplasia. The
total population consisted of 114 canines from six veterinary clinics in the south of Santiago de Cali. A higher
frequency was observed in adult to geriatric animals with an average of 9.22 years; thus, no preference for sex
was evident, but predominance in the mestizo race. On the other hand, mastocytoma was the most common
neoplasm, with skin being the anatomical area primarily affected. In addition, a predominance of malignant
tumors was found and mixed diet was recorded as the most common, although no significant association with the
type of neoplasm was identified. It is concluded that the presentation of cancer is consistent with what the
existing literature indicates; however, a more thorough evaluation on nutrition in future studies is necessary.
Propuesta para el cálculo de la cantidad económica de pedido (EOQ) de los aceros clasificados con la matriz de dos criterios de Flores en una empresa caso de estudio de Cali, Valle

This work seeks a solution to problems in inventory management in a company in Santiago de Cali, Valle del Cauca. The objective is to propose an economical order quantity in the steels for the manufacture of spare parts, with the purpose of reducing low turnover references. It is proposed to carry out the ABC classification, using the Flores matrix the “A” sku were identified, to which the economic order quantity (EOQ) was calculated. The total relevant cost (CTR) is calculated from the cost of ordering and maintaining inventory. The comparative EOQs are tabulated for those found and hypothetical obtained from the inventory entry records, the results show that there is a variation between 49% and 83% of the storage costs, concluding the importance in posing the importance in proposing a steel monitoring and control system for high, medium and low rotation steels.
“Evaluación de la Eficacia de los Cannabinoides en el Tratamiento de la Ansiedad: revisión de la dosis y respuesta del paciente al CBD. Revisión sistemática”
(2026-09-04) Ruiz Cruz, Yury; Ruiz Cruz; Yury
Anxiety is a normal psychobiological response in humans; however, when it presents persistently or disproportionately, it can become part of various psychiatric disorders and significantly affect quality of life. In this context, cannabidiol (CBD) has garnered scientific interest due to its potential anxiolytic effect and its interaction with the endocannabinoid system. The objective of this systematic review was to analyze the available scientific evidence on the efficacy of cannabinoids in the treatment of anxiety disorders, considering doses, metabolites, routes of administration, and clinical response. This research followed the PRISMA 2020 guidelines for systematic literature reviews, conducting searches in Scopus and Web of Science between 2015 and 2026. Initially, 226 records were identified, of which 80 duplicates were removed. After screening titles, abstracts, and full texts, 36 scientific articles were selected for the final analysis. The findings show favorable signals for CBD in certain clinical and experimental contexts related to anxiety, although the results were heterogeneous. The evidence regarding the effects of CBD is heterogeneous due to methodological differences, variability in dosage, and limitations in sample sizes. In conclusion, CBD constitutes an alternative under investigation, but the available evidence does not yet allow for conclusively establishing its efficacy for the general treatment of anxiety disorders.
Estrategias de manejo y sostenibilidad para mitigar la podredumbre roja en la caña de azúcar (Saccharum officinarum) causada por el hongo Colletotrichum falcatum: Revisión sistemática.

Sugarcane red rot, caused by Colletotrichum falcatum Went, is an important disease because of its effects on yield, juice quality, and sugar recovery. Its development is associated with infected planting material, crop residues, pathogen survival, and environmental conditions that favor infection and dissemination. Historically, management has relied on resistant varieties, healthy planting material, and phytosanitary practices; however, pathogen variability and the breakdown of resistance have increased interest in sustainable alternatives. This systematic review aimed to identify and compare sustainable strategies for managing C. falcatum, analyze agronomic practices used to control the disease, and synthesize evidence on their effectiveness. Searches were conducted in ScienceDirect, Scopus, Web of Science, PubMed, and MDPI for studies published between 2015 and 2025 in Spanish and English, following the PRISMA selection process. A total of 183 records were identified, 57 duplicates were removed, and 29 studies were included in the qualitative synthesis after screening and eligibility assessment. Biological control agents, particularly Trichoderma, Bacillus, and Pseudomonas, were the most frequently represented strategies. Among quantitatively comparable results, mustard biofumigation achieved 100% inhibition, followed by Chaetomium globosum CGSR13 (95.32%), Pseudomonas chlororaphis SRP19 (92.56%), rhamnolipids produced by Pseudomonas aeruginosa DS9 (86.60%), and Trichoderma harzianum (85.50%). The most recurrent agricultural practices were varietal resistance, healthy planting material, sanitation, and phytosanitary surveillance. Overall, the evidence supports an integrated approach combining varietal resistance, agronomic practices, and biocontrol agents, although additional field and commercial-scale validation is required.
Efectividad en el Manejo de la Obstrucción Uretral en Felinos Machos: Comparación entre Protocolos Terapéuticos en Medicina Veterinaria: Revisión Sistemática

Urethral obstruction in male cats is a common medical emergency associated with high morbidity and significant
economic implications. Traditionally, urethral catheterization has been considered the treatment of choice;
however, increasing recognition of the functional component of the disease has driven interest in conservative
medical management strategies. The aim of this systematic review was to compare the effectiveness of the two
therapeutic approaches based on the literature published between 2020 and 2026.
A systematic search was conducted in electronic databases (PubMed, Scopus, and Science direct) following
PRISMA 2020 guidelines. Studies in English and Spanish that focused on male cats with urethral obstruction and
evaluated medical management and/or catheterization were included. After the selection process, 10 studies with
different methodological designs were analyzed.
The results showed that urethral catheterization maintains high immediate success rates (85–95%), although
recurrence rates may reach 29.6% and the procedure is associated with iatrogenic complications. In contrast,
conservative medical management demonstrated variable response rates (48–80%), with lower invasiveness and
potential usefulness in selected patients, particularly in resource-limited settings.
It is concluded that no absolute superiority exists between approaches, and therapeutic decisions should be
individualized. Catheterization remains the standard of care in critical cases, while conservative management
represents a viable alternative in specific clinical scenarios.
