RESUMO
Antibiotics and pesticides, as well as various emerging contaminants that are present in surface waters, raise significant environmental concerns. Advanced oxidation processes, which are employed to eliminate these substances, have demonstrated remarkable effectiveness. However, during the degradation process, by-products that are not completely mineralized are generated, posing a substantial risk to aquatic ecosystem organisms; therefore, it is crucial to assess effluent ecotoxicity following treatment. This study aimed to assess the toxicity of effluents produced during the removal of amoxicillin and glyphosate with a Fenton-type process using a laminar structure catalyzed with iron (Fe) and copper (Cu). The evaluation included the use of Daphnia magna, Selenastrum capricornutum, and Lactuca sativa, and mutagenicity testing was performed using strains TA98 and TA100 of Salmonella typhimurium. Both treated and untreated effluents exhibited inhibitory effects on root growth in L. sativa, even at low concentrations ranging from 1% to 10% v/v. Similarly, negative impacts on the growth of algal cells of S. capricornutum were observed at concentrations as low as 0.025% v/v, particularly in cases involving amoxicillin-copper (Cu) and glyphosate with copper (Cu) and iron (Fe). Notably, in the case of D. magna, mortality was noticeable even at concentrations of 10% v/v. Additionally, the treatment of amoxicillin with double-layer hydroxides of Fe and Cu resulted in mutagenicity (IM ≥ 2.0), highlighting the necessity to treat the effluent further from the advanced oxidation process to reduce ecological risks.

Objetivo: medir la carga de cáncer a partir del indicadorAños de Vida Saludables Perdidos (avisa) en el Departamentode Nariño y subregiones. Metodología: mediante el usode avisa, identificar la carga de cáncer en el departamentode Nariño, 2010. Resultados: Los avisa por cáncer en elDepartamento de Nariño destacan la emergencia de lostumores de estómago, cuello uterino, mama, próstata, colony recto, tráquea/bronquios/pulmón, benignos, las leucemiasy linfomas, asimismo una suma importante de años de vidaperdidos por muerte prematura y de predominio en mujeres.Conclusiones: este es el primer estudio de carga por cáncerde un departamento en Colombia usando una metodologíaestandarizada, que contribuye al Plan de Salud Departamentalde Nariño, Colombia 2013-2015 y al sistema de indicadoresdel Plan Decenal para el Control del Cáncer. Los cánceres,luego de las enfermedades cardiovasculares, son las causasmás importantes de avisa dentro del grupo de enfermedadesno transmisibles...
Objective: to measure the burden of cancer using the indicatorDisability Adjusted Life Years (dalys). Methodology: the useof the dalys indicator made it possible to identify the burden ofcancer in the department of Nariño, 2010. Results: the dalysdueto cancer emphasize the emergency of stomach, cervix, breast,prostate, trachea/bronchus/lung, colon and rectum and benigntumors, as well as leukemias and lymphomas. Similarly, theindicator shows an important amount of years of life lostdue to premature death along with a predominance of thisissue among women. Conclusions: this is the first study ofburden of cancer targeting a department in Colombia using astandardized methodology contributing to the Health Plan ofthe department of Nariño in Colombia during 2013-2015 andto the indicators system of the Cancer Control Ten-Year Plan.Cancer is ranked second only to cardiovascular diseases as themost important causes of dalys within the non communicablediseases group...

OBJECTIVE: Characterize the technical cooperation of Colombia with four bordering countries and determine the training needs of the binational technical groups (BTGs). METHODS: Qualitative investigation based on document review and information provided by key actors in this field. To explore training needs, a survey of Colombia-Ecuador BTGs was conducted. Further information was obtained through discussion groups. Deductive and inductive categorization techniques were applied, as well as convergence using the triangulation method. RESULTS: Eighteen agreements/conventions and the documentation from 12 borderarea health cooperation projects were obtained. The majority of the projects involved multilateral cooperation. The two priority cooperation topics were the International Health Regulations and Millennium Development Goals 6 and 7. The BTGs considered training in management, health diplomacy, and capacity-building necessary for cooperation in border areas. CONCLUSIONS: The border areas exhibited complex intervention scenarios, where international law and foreign policy have defined cooperative actions. In determining the training for BTGs, the national and international regulatory framework and context of the border areas should be taken into account.

OBJETIVO: Caracterizar la cooperación técnica de Colombia con cuatro de sus países fronterizos y determinar las necesidades de formación de sus grupos técnicos binacionales (GTB). MÉTODOS: Investigación cualitativa basada en la revisión documental y en información suministrada por actores clave de este campo. Para explorar las necesidades de capacitación se aplicó una encuesta con los GTB de Colombia y Ecuador, la cual fue profundizada a través de grupos de discusión; se aplicaron técnicas de categorización deductiva e inductiva, y de triangulación por convergencia. RESULTADOS: Se obtuvieron 18 acuerdos/convenios y documentación de 12 proyectos de cooperación sanitaria en zona de frontera. La mayoría de los proyectos encontrados correspondían a cooperación multilateral. Los dos temas de cooperación priorizados fueron el Reglamento Sanitario Internacional y los Objetivos de Desarrollo del Milenio 6 y 7. Los GTB consideraron necesario un proceso de capacitación en gestión, diplomacia en salud y desarrollo de capacidades para la cooperación en ámbitos fronterizos. CONCLUSIONES: Las fronteras se exhibieron como escenarios complejos de intervención, donde el derecho internacional y la política exterior han delimitado las acciones de cooperación. Al definir la capacitación de los GTB, se sugiere considerar el marco normativo nacional e internacional y el contexto de las áreas fronterizas.
