Disparities of women's authorship in Colombia: A cross-sectional analysis.

Accepted manuscripts published in medical journals play a crucial role within the scientific community. Over the past few decades, there has been a gradual increase in the number of women entering the medical field. However, women remain underrepresented as first and last authors in medical journals.

Recruitment of a U.S. Nation-Wide Sample of Transgender and Gender Diverse Youth.

Purpose: Transgender and gender diverse youth (TGDY) can be a challenging population to reach because of limitations related to parental/guardian consent and concerns about privacy. This pilot study's purpose was to assess the feasibility of recruiting a US nation-wide longitudinal sample of TGDY through social media, and to compare participants who completed the Wave 1 survey only to TGDY who completed both Wave 1 and Wave 2 surveys.

Methods: Adolescents (aged 14-17 years) who identified as TGDY were recruited through social media and invited to complete two online surveys across a 3-month period.

Direct Reductive Amination of HMF to 5-(Aminomethyl)-2-furanmethanol Using Supported Iridium-based Catalysts.

In this work, partial reductive amination of 5-hydroxymethylfurfural (HMF) with gaseous ammonia over iridium supported on γ-AlO, TiO, SiO and carbon has been studied. The influence of the support and pressure was investigated in the valorization under mild conditions of HMF to 5-(aminomethyl)-2-furanmethanol (AMFM). The catalysts were characterized by TEM, SEM-EDS, N sorption Isotherms, TGA, CO-Chemisorption, TPR, XRD, NH-TPD, ICP-AES and XPS.

Highly diversified coronaviruses in neotropical bats.

Bats host a broad diversity of coronaviruses (CoVs), including close relatives of human pathogens. There is only limited data on neotropical bat CoVs. We analysed faecal, blood and intestine specimens from 1562 bats sampled in Costa Rica, Panama, Ecuador and Brazil for CoVs by broad-range PCR.

From 'human being' to 'social subject': "unfreezing" ergonomics and the implications for understanding and intervening health-disease process.

Ergonomics has been successful in increasing productivity and comfort in the work arena. It has also contributed to reducing occupational accidents. Despite this, ergonomics is frequently limited to understanding the health-disease process related to human-technology interactions, as this process is more complex than what can be understood from an ergonomic evaluation.

Work situation operative model MOST: linking diagnosis and intervention to improve work conditions.

This paper presents the model "Work Situation Operative Model" - MOST (after its Spanish acronym). It offers a comprehensive, systemic approach to analysing work stations and/or work processes, serving also as a framework for pursuing various ergonomic and occupational health and safety goals. Originally produced for a food sector company, the model has been extended and successfully applied in several industries in Colombia and Ecuador, including cement, oil, and paper industries.
