(Editorial Universidad Santiago de Cali, 2026-02-27) Meneses Urrea, Luz Adriana; Villegas Arenas, Dolly; Gonzalez Mina, Lesdy Daniela; Sanclemente Diaz, Lucero; Carmona, Daniel Elías; Alarcon, Lady Diana; Rengifo Meneses, Laura Valentina; Montoya Cano, Diana Isabel; Toro Mina, Lesly Tatiana; Aragón Díaz, Angelica María; Cerón Gil, Jenny Katerine; Valencia Carreño, Yizeth; Parra González, Lina Marcela; Idrobo Hurtado, Namibia; Abonías González, Luz Adriana; Alcaide Leyva, José Manuel; Castro Cataño, María Elena; Criado Castro, Laura; Jimenez Ruiz, Daniela; Bedoya Sandoval, Juan Fernando; Bula Ledezma, Camila Andrea; Rivera Romero, Viviana; Ruiz Lasso, Jhonnier Stiven; López Peláez, Jessica
El enfermero desempeña un rol crucial en el cuidado de la salud mental, ofrecen cuidados holísticos y abarcando aspectos físicos, emocionales y psicológicos; mediante el uso de diferentes metodologías investigativas el enfermero propone y ponen en marcha cuidado que involucran los pacientes desde el inicio del proceso, brindando asistencia, orientación y un rol educativo a nivel individual y comunitario.
En la Prevención y Recuperación, las intervenciones de enfermería se centran en mejorar la calidad de vida de quienes sufren trastornos mentales y promueven la recuperación y la identificación de factore de riesgo de la enfermedad mental en los diferentes momentos de vida.
Un libro de enfermería sobre el cuidado de la salud mental sería una herramienta valiosa para educar a los profesionales y fomentar su comprensión de la relevancia de su papel en este campo tan importante.
Avances en las estrategias producción de probióticos para la industria agrícola: Una revisión de alcance
(Universidad Santiago de Cali, 2026-04-16) Jaimes Ramirez, Mateo; González Vargas, Iván Andrés (Director); Corredor Saenz, Viviana (Directora)
This paper highlights that probiotic production strategies generate viable biomass, product stability, and scalability, in addition to promoting efficient nutrient use and reducing chemical inputs. However, there are no clear standards for testing the efficacy of microbial biofertilizers, strain identity, purity, and viable count. The objective is to organize and classify production strategies by production method and medium formulation. This review was based on the PRISMA-ScR guideline and searches in ScienceDirect, Scopus, and Web Of Science (2020–2025). The search found 3,681 records, of which 77 met the criteria established for further reading. The results showed a predominance of techniques such as liquid/submerged fermentation and solid-state fermentation, with microbial genera such as Bacillus and Trichoderma being the most frequent, and consortia mainly including 2–3 strains. With comparable pH, DO (dissolved oxygen), and kLa conditions between flask and reactor, batches of 5–3000 L were scaled up with 10^8–10^9 CFU/mL and 10^8–10^9 spores/g. The media are optimized by substitution or supplementation, and post-formulation viability is preserved with carriers and encapsulation, reaching 10^8–10^9 CFU/g and 90–270 days of shelf life. In general, efficient production requires an appropriate method, economical media, precise control of pH/DO/kLa, and scaling that preserves similar agitation and aeration.

The following compilation presents eight theses submitted by students in the Prehospital Care Technology program at the University of Santiago de Cali. The methodological type and design selected by the authors are monographs, specifically systematic reviews. To develop these, research questions were formulated using a specific structure that establishes three connecting criteria: the study population, the context in which the work was conducted, and the concept under examination. Next, objectives were established with the intention of answering the questions posed. Subsequently, the databases of the Santiago de Cali University library were used to search for the most recent information on the topic at hand. Once the selected articles were read and analyzed, a summary of the various topics covered in the works presented in this volume was compiled. Thus, anyone interested in the subject matter can use this text as a reference book. Finally, we highlight the students’ efforts in searching for information and their dedication to completing their thesis projects and thereby earning their academic degrees.
Redes Sociales y Cultura Política en los Pueblos de Indios de Antioquia (1680-1810): entre lo Vertical y lo Horizontal
(Editorial Universidad Santiago de Cali, 2026-02-23) Héctor Cuevas Arenas
The aim of this book is to explore, reconstruct, and analyze the social and political events related to the vertical and horizontal networks in which the indigenous peoples of Antioquia Province were involved between 1680 and 1810. These networks are understood here as expressions of a monarchical political culture and a social life that combined hierarchical spaces and practices with more everyday and relatively egalitarian ones. The theoretical framework underlying this work brings together concepts from the social sciences and the humanities—such as social capital, symbolic capital, clientelism, political culture, the gift economy, hegemony, and vassalage pact, among others, which were deemed relevant and were operationalized as research categories using a qualitative, exploratory, and descriptive methodology based on documentation consulted in various archives in the cities of Bogotá, Medellín, Marinilla, and Rionegro. The main contributions of this work can be summarized as follows: the political culture of that era linked vertical and horizontal social networks to notions and values that were reproduced on a daily basis and in legal disputes—loyalty, authority, clientelism, paternalism, solidarity, charity, and legal casuistry—within the framework of a gift economy and the reproduction of social and symbolic capital.
Influencia de la enfermedad renal crónica (ERC) en la selección del protocolo anestésico en caninos geriátricos en Santiago de Cali

This project analyzes the influence of chronic kidney disease (CKD) on the selection of anesthetic protocols used in geriatric dogs in Santiago de Cali. Twenty veterinary clinics with surgical services were surveyed, of which 12 authorized the use of the information, providing real data on the anesthetic management of this population. The respondents reported that the patients included in the study were geriatric dogs with a prior diagnosis of CKD, undergoing various low- and medium-complexity surgical procedures. The results show that propofol is the most frequently used induction anesthetic agent, within multimodal protocols that generally include midazolam, opioids, and inhalational agents such as isoflurane. Notably, all of the veterinarians reported having at some point refused a surgical procedure because the patient was a geriatric dog with CKD, reflecting the high perceived risk in this population. Furthermore, it was observed that the most frequently requested preoperative tests are complete blood count and serum biochemistry, even though more comprehensive testing—including sensitive biomarkers such as SDMA—would allow for safer anesthetic decisions and improve the quality of life of these patients, especially in routine procedures such as dental prophylaxis. Although information is available on anesthetic management in geriatric patients with chronic kidney disease (CKD), surgical procedures are still declined due to a perceived high risk, highlighting the need to strengthen clinical confidence and integrate more comprehensive diagnostic tools. It is concluded that individualizing the anesthetic protocol, adequate assessment of renal status, and rigorous monitoring are essential to improve safety and postoperative recovery. This study provides valuable local evidence and establishes practical recommendations to optimize the anesthetic approach in geriatric canines with chronic kidney disease.
