Uso de la acupuntura tradicional y electro acupuntura como tratamiento para el manejo de dolor en caninos y felinos. Revisión sistematica
(2025-02-14) Cobo Capote, Jessica Juliana; Delgado Diago, Geraldine
Acupuncture and electroacupuncture have been proposed as effective
complementary techniques for pain management in veterinary medicine. However, in
Colombia, their use has been limited due to the lack of local scientific evidence and
the scarce specialized training in these techniques. The aim of this study was to
evaluate the effectiveness of acupuncture and electroacupuncture in canines and
felines, comparing them with conventional medicine in the treatment of pain.
Evaluación Comparativa del potencial de los Hongos para la Producción de Tintes Naturales en la Industria Textil
(Universidad Santiago de Cal, 2026-09-24) González victoria, Pablo Andrey
Concerns about the environmental impact of synthetic dyes are driving the textile industry to seek more sustainable alternatives. Pigments produced by fungi have attracted significant interest due to their renewable origins, biodegradability, and ability to produce compounds with additional functional properties. However, the range of fungal species with potential for natural dye production is highly fragmented, making it difficult to conduct a comprehensive analysis and select the most promising microorganisms for industrial applications. This systematic review was conducted to analyze the available scientific evidence and identify which fungi in the industry have the greatest potential as producers of natural dyes for the textile industry. To this end, we employed the PRISMA 2020 methodology through a literature search in the Scopus, Web of Science, and ScienceDirect databases. Forty-two scientific articles were selected based on the inclusion and exclusion criteria. We found that genera such as Talaromyces, Monascus, Penicillium, and Chlorociboria exhibit notable pigments with different shades and functional properties, including antimicrobial activity, antioxidant activity, and UV protection. We also found that agro-industrial waste can be used as culture substrates to increase sustainability and reduce production costs. Finding solutions for pigment stability, mycotoxin production in certain species, and industrial-scale production remains a challenge. We conclude that fungal pigments offer a promising alternative for the development of sustainable dyes in the textile industry and can also be further developed within the textile sector. However, further research is needed to optimize production processes and biosafety, as well as the application of fungal pigments on an industrial scale.
Influencia de la familia y el entorno en personas con una enfermedad mental según revisión sistemática de literatura entre los años 2014 y 2022
(Universidad Santiago de Cali, 2023-11-03) Gómez Mina, Isabel Andrea; Bedoya Sandoval, Juan Fernando
The impact generated by a mental illness not only occurs in the person who suffers from it, but also in their environment, especially in the family, this due to the burden for the caregivers that over time originate different overwhelming factors such as stress. Families that have a member with mental illness represent a diverse group, that is, they differ in social class, ethnic group, religious affiliation, and quality of family life; therefore, each family member has unique experiences, needs, and concerns because the impact of mental illness on a loved one depends in some way on where it occurred in their life and what their role is within the family. family.
Desarrollo de una estrategia didáctica audiovisual para la enseñanza de las ciencias de osteología en anatomía animal
(2025-05-29) Escobar Cabrera, Julio Cesar; Rentería Castro, Angélico
Landfills are the final disposal system currently used for solid waste in cities, however,
these places also generate environmental impacts that affect communities and the natural
environment. There is a project for the construction of a sanitary landfill in the village of
Santa Elena in the District of Buenaventura, whose place has ecotourism development
and is also close to a Community Council of Black Communities, which has generated
resistance to the development of the project.
The purpose of this work is to formulate an educational proposal for the socialization of
the socio-environmental impact of a sanitary landfill in the village of Santa Elena in the
District of Buenaventura
The methodology used consisted of reviewing documentation on environmental impact,
In conclusion, the landfill project in the village of Santa Elena has a strong and negative
impact on the environment and the community is against the project.
also on the landfill project and field trips for recognition of the community surrounding the
project in order to make the educational proposal.
The results show that the economic activity of the village of Santa Elena is ecotourism,
cutting of timber trees, agriculture and the conservation of medicinal plants. In the village
of San Elena there are indigenous people with 3 communities with 56 families with 200
people and 380 people of African descent. In the area is the El Venado creek with clean
waters and ecotourism activity. The environmental impacts of the project are: air pollution,
water pollution, soil pollution, loss of biodiversity, health effects, job creation and loss of
ancestral knowledge. Soil contamination only occurs in the construction stage and the
community of the village is against the project, Finally, the educational proposal for the
socialization of the environmental impact for both the educational community and the
community of the village includes a workshop on socialization of the environmental impact
of the landfill and the field tour of the area of the current landfill.
Impacto de la multiculturalidad en el pensamiento creativo de los estudiantes indígenas: un estudio en la institución educativa agroambiental yuç kwet zuunterritorio indígena san andrés de pisimbaláinzá (cauca)
(2025-02-20) Isaza Yoja, Jimy Alexander
The study investigated the impact of multiculturalism on the creative
thinking of indigenous students at the Agroambiental Yuç Kwet Zuun Educational
Institution, located in the San Andrés de Pisimbalá-Inzá Indigenous Territory, Cauca,
Colombia. Employing a mixed-methods approach, the research combined qualitative and
quantitative methods to provide a comprehensive view of how cultural diversity affects
students' creativity. Through semi-structured interviews, focus groups, and questionnaires,
the study explored students' perceptions and analyzed cultural interactions within the
educational environment. The findings revealed that multiculturalism, by offering a variety
of perspectives and knowledge, can enrich the creative process, fostering a more inclusive
and stimulating learning environment. However, it also identified challenges such as
intercultural barriers and stereotypes that hindered the flow of ideas and collaboration
among students. The research emphasized the importance of integrating traditional
knowledge from indigenous communities into the school curriculum to preserve cultural
identity and enhance creativity. The findings suggested that, to maximize the positive
impact of multiculturalism, it is crucial to overcome these challenges and design
educational strategies that promote intercultural dialogue and idea exchange. The relevance
of the study lies in the scarcity of similar research in indigenous contexts, providing
valuable insights for the development of more effective and culturally relevant educational
policies in Colombia.
