ABSTRACT Bibliometrics is a branch of scientometrics that allows the study of scientific activity. Its unit of analysis is the scientific article. The interest in this area of research lies in its implication in decision making, as part of knowledge management, by suggesting the development of lines of research that have been little studied or supervising the development of others and evaluating the scientific work of authors, institutions and even countries. The central theme of this article is to analyze bibliometrically the scientific production related to academic achievement in the university context. The approach used was quantitative, because it used statistics to give the desired result. The type of research was descriptive because it sought to characterize bibliometric indicators such as year of publication, country where the study was carried out, journal of publication, main topics, methodologies and areas of knowledge used. A total of 145 scientific articles related to the scientific production on human talent and academic achievement published in the Scopus databases were taken into account, corresponding to the period sampled between 2006-2021.

RESUMEN La Bibliometría es una rama de la Cienciometría que permite estudiar la actividad científica. Su unidad de análisis es el artículo científico. El interés por esta área de investigación radica en su implicancia en la toma de decisiones, como parte de la gestión del conocimiento, al sugerir el desarrollo de líneas de investigación poco estudiadas o supervisar el desarrollo de otras y evaluar el quehacer científico de autores, instituciones e incluso países. El tema central de este artículo es analizar bibliométricamente la producción científica relacionada con el aprovechamiento académico en el contexto universitario. El enfoque utilizado fue el cuantitativo, esto porque utilizó la estadística para dar el resultado deseado. El tipo de investigación fue el descriptivo porque buscó caracterizar indicadores bibliométricos tales como año de publicación, país donde se efectuó el estudio, revista de publicación, principales temáticas, metodologías y utilizadas áreas del conocimiento. Se tomaron en cuenta 145 artículos científicos que guardan relación con la producción científica sobre talento humano y aprovechamiento académico publicados en las bases de datos Scopus correspondientes al periodo muestreado entre los años 2006-2021.

ABSTRACT Obesity has been identified as a risk factor for severity of respiratory infections. Thus, the support of the immune response in obese subjects is of interest. The present work evaluated the effect of the consumption of a calafate extract on markers of the immune response in lean and obese mice. Male C57BL/6J mice were exposed for 82 days to a standard or a high-fat diet (HFD). A subgroup of both groups was given 50 and 100 mg [total polyphenols]/kg body weight/day of extract in the last two weeks. Gene expression and secretion of immune response markers were evaluated in lung tissue and plasma. An effect of extract treatment on IFN-ϓ expression was observed. Effects induced by the HFD and treatment with extract were observed independent of the expression of IL-12. An overall effect of the HF diet on plasma IFN-ϓ was observed, specifically a decrease in animals fed the HFD. An interaction between diet and extract treatment was observed over plasma IL-12. The treatment used modulates markers that activate the immune response to respiratory infections, mainly of viral origin, in lean and obese animals.

RESUMEN La obesidad ha sido identificada como factor de riesgo de severidad de infecciones respiratorias. Apoyar la respuesta inmune en sujetos obesos es de interés. El presente trabajo evaluó el efecto del consumo de un extracto de calafate sobre marcadores de respuesta inmune en ratones delgados y obesos. Ratones C57BL/6J machos fueron expuestos por 82 días a dieta estándar (DE) y alta en grasas (DAG). A un subgrupo de ambos grupos, se les administró 50 y 100 mg [polifenoles totales]/kg peso de animal/día, de extracto, en las últimas dos semanas. Se evaluó expresión génica y secreción de marcadores de respuesta inmune, en tejido pulmonar y plasma. Se observó un efecto del tratamiento con extracto en la expresión de IFN-ϓ. Se observaron efectos inducidos por la DAG y el tratamiento con extracto de manera independiente, en la expresión de IL-12. Se observó un efecto global de la DAG sobre IFN-ϓ plasmático, específicamente una disminución en animales alimentados con DAG. Se observó una interacción entre la dieta y el tratamiento con extracto sobre IL-12 plasmática. El tratamiento utilizado modula marcadores que activan la respuesta inmune ante infecciones respiratorias principalmente de origen viral, en animales delgados y obesos.

RESUMEN El cultivo de papa es uno de los más representativos de los Andes colombianos. El cultivo tiene altos costos de producción, entre los cuales, la fertilización representa un 36% del total. Los avances tecnológicos en nutrición vegetal han permitido el desarrollo de nuevos compuestos, que generan una mayor asimilación y disponibilidad de los elementos nutritivos, durante los periodos productivos. Dentro de las diferentes fuentes de fósforo empleadas en Colombia, está como alternativa, el termofosfato o fosfato térmico. Por esto, el objetivo del presente trabajo fue evaluar la aplicación del termofosfato en el cultivo de papa variedad ‘Superior’, en condiciones de campo, en el municipio de Villa Pinzón, Cundinamarca. Se empleó un diseño completamente al azar, con 4 tratamientos, que correspondieron a diferentes porcentajes de fosfato térmico 100% fosfato diamónico (DAP) (manejo convencional); 80% DAP, 20% fosfato térmico (FT); 40% DAP, 60% FT y 20% DAP, 80% FT, (0, 300, 600 y 900kg ha-1), con tres réplicas, para un total de 12 unidades experimentales. Las variables evaluadas fueron pesos fresco y seco, de parte área y raíz, concentración de fósforo en tejido y rendimiento por calidades y total. Se observó que la aplicación de termofosfato en diferentes concentraciones generó un efecto positivo con diferencias estadísticas (P≤0,05), en todas las variables evaluadas. El tratamiento de 600kg ha-1 de termofosfato, se muestra como una alternativa para el aporte de fósforo dentro de los planes de fertilización, en busca de una mejor respuesta fisiológica y productiva del cultivo de papa.

ABSTRACT Potato cultivation is one of the most representative activities of the Colombian Andes. The crop has high production costs, among which fertilization represents 36% of the total Technological advances in plant nutrition have allowed the development of new compounds that generate greater assimilation and availability of nutritional elements during productive periods. Within the different phosphorus sources available in Colombia, thermophosphate exists as an alternative. For this reason, the objective of this research was to evaluate the application of thermophosphate in the potato crop, Superior ’variety, under field conditions in the municipality of Villa Pinzón-Cundinamarca. A completely randomized design was used with 4 treatments that corresponded to different percentages of thermal phosphate: 100% diammonium phosphate (DAP) (conventional management); 80% DAP, 20% thermal phosphate (TF); 40% DAP, 60% TF and 20% DAP, 80% TF (0, 300, 600 y 900kg ha-1), with three replicas for a total of 12 experimental units. The variables evaluated were fresh and dry weights of areal and root part, phosphorus concentration in tissue and yield by qualities and the total. It was observed that the application of thermophosphate at different concentrations generated a positive effect, statistically different (P≤0.05) in all the variables evaluated. Thermophosphate, at 600kg ha-1 was found to be an alternative for the contribution of phosphorus within the fertilization plans, in search of a better physiological and productive response of the potato crop.

Uma nova espécie do gênero Tityus C.L. Koch, 1836 (Scorpiones, Buthidae) é descrita dos municípios de Anagé (36'44''14S - 08'08''41W) e Poções (31'47''14S - 21'55''40W) no estado da Bahia, Brasil. Tityus aba n. sp pertence ao grupo Tityusbahiensis (Lourenço, 2002), caracterizado por espécies de tamanho que variam de cinco a sete cm de comprimento, com colorido variando do amarelo - palha ao marrom avermelhado e sem a lâmina mediana basal dilatada nas fêmeas. Neste grupo, aproxima-se das espécies do complexo Tityusstigmurus (Lourenço, 2001). A nova espécie é mais próxima de Tityus stigmurus (Thorell, 1876), Tityus martinpaechi Lourenço, 2001 e de Tityus melici Lourenço, 2003, distinguindo-se da primeira por apresentar o prossoma quase totalmente negro, maior número de dentes pectíneos e tamanho maior; da segunda por não apresentar manchas nos palpos e pernas, ausência de uma mancha negra de forma triangular sobre o prossoma e também tamanho maior, a da última pela ausência de manchas confluentes no mesossoma e de faixa longitudinal na face ventral dos segmentos de I a IV do metassoma. Tityus aba n.sp. apresenta indivíduos de médio a grande porte, medindo de 6,0 a 7,65 centímetros, de colorido geral castanho claro, com prossoma escuro quase negro e tergitos com três faixas escuras longitudinais, sendo uma mediana e duas laterais; carenas medianas dorsais dos segmentos II a IV com o último granulo maior, tornando-se espiniforme nos segmentos III e IV. Os machos apresentam os palpos mais delgados em relação às fêmeas e os segmentos IV e V do metassoma mais dilatados.

A new species of the genus Tityus C. L. Koch, 1836 (Scorpiones, Buthidae) from the state of Bahia, Brasil. A new species of the genus Tityus C.L.Koch, 1836 (Scorpiones, Buthidae) is described from Anagé (36º44'14"S - 08º08'41"W) and Poções (31º47'14"S - 21º55'40"W), state of Bahia, Brazil. Tityus aba n. sp. belongs to the Tityusbahiensis group Lourenço, 2002 characterized by medium sized specimens, ranging from five to seven cm in length, reddish-brown or brownish coloration patterns and basal middle lamellae of female pectines not dilatated in most species. Within the group, this species is close to the Tityus stigmurus complex and is more related to Tityusstigmurus (Thorell, 1876), Tityusmartinpaechi Lourenço, 2001 and Tityus melici Lourenço, 2003. T. aba n. sp. is distinguished from T. stigmurus by the color of the prossoma, which is almost black, by the higher number of pectinal teeth and by the larger body size. It is distinguished from T. martinpaechi mainly by the absence of dark spots on pedipalps and legs and also by the larger size of the specimens, and from T. melici , by the absence of dark confluent spots over the tergites and longitudinal strip between ventral keels of segments I to IV of the metasoma. Tityus aba n. sp. includes medium to large sized scorpions ranging from 6.0 to 7.65 cm, yellowish brown coloration pattern with an almost black carapace, with three longitudinal dark strips over the tergites, and with the dorsal medial keels of segment II to IV with a larger terminal granule that becomes spinoid on segments III and IV. The males are distinguished from the females by the slender pedipalps and more dilatated metasomal segments IV and V.
