One of the critical actions that emerged during the onset of the New Normalcy after COVID-19 lockdowns, is the safe return to schools and workplaces. Therefore, dedicated transportation services need to adapt to meet new requirements such as arrival reliability for multiple bell times, the consequent staggering of arrivals and departures, and the decrease in bus capacity due to the physical distancing required by regulators. In this work, we address these issues plus additional labor conditions concerning drivers for a university context; with the goal of optimizing social interests such as covering demand and travel time under limited resources.

Introduction: Our aim was to characterize the cytogenetic profile that displays a certain phase of chronic myelogenous leukemia (CML), offering new directions for investigation of the etiology to the molecular level. In Mexico, data does not exist in this regard; thus, the objective of the present study was to determine cytogenetic alterations in 56 Mestizo Mexican patients with LMC.

Design: Cross-sectional study (diagnosis and stage) was carried out.

Objective: To evaluate sex chromosome aneuploidies in patients with Turner's syndrome using two cytogenetic techniques.

Study Design: A sample of 35 women with a clinical suspicion of Turner syndrome was examined in the Hospital of Obstetrics and Gynecology, Instituto Mexicano del Seguro Social, Monterrey, Mexico. They were subjected to a conventional cytogenetic technique with G-banding and to fluorescence in situ hybridization (FISH) using a specific alpha satellite X chromosome (DXZ1) and specific alpha satellite Y chromosome (DYZ1).
