Este estudio se refiere a las transformaciones sociohistóricas-y por tanto irreversibles-que va a generar la virtualización de las relaciones interpersonales. Se analizan las comunicaciones on-line con "personas conocidas". Son contactos que los internautas diferencian de sus amistades y no incluyen entre ellas. Metodología: Se ha aplicado una encuesta a 2801 internautas. Los datos se han analizado utilizando metodologías discriminativas y estructurales, a partir de las cuales se identifican cuatro tipologías diferentes de comunicantes. Resultados y conclusiones: Se comprueba que las funciones específicas de estas interacciones son instrumentales. Y se diferencian dos clases de transformaciones: sociogenéticas y antropogenéticas. Tal como preveían las hipótesis del estudio, se producen transformaciones sociogenéticas que van reduciendo la brecha digital; pero no se producen transformaciones antropogenéticas, que alterarían la posición que ocupan las amistades en el sistema de las distancias sociales y las funciones que desempeñan entre las relaciones sociales. [EN] Introduction: This article examines the socio-historical-and irreversible-transformations generated by the digitalisation of interpersonal relations, particularly, in the online communication of internet users with acquaintances, i.e., people they know, but are not a close friend. Methods: The study is based on a survey carried out among a sample of 2,801 Internet users and the analysis of data with discriminatory and structural methods, which resulted in the identification of four different types of communicators. Results and conclusions: The specific functions of online interactions with acquaintances are instrumental. Two kinds of transformations are identified: sociogenetic and anthropogenic. As predicted by the research hypotheses, these interactions are experiencing sociogenetic transformations, which reduced the digital gap, but no anthropogenic transformations,
Toxocara spp. contamination in public parks of the Constitutional Province of Callao and the southern zone ofLima was evaluated to assess the human health risk. Turf samples were collected from 176 of 479 parks (78 from Callao and 98 from southem Lima) using the double "W" method. Samples were processed by flotation using NaCl saturated solution. A sample was considered positive when at least one egg of Toxocara spp. was found. During analysis, the parks were grouped according to condition (good grass cover, moderate grass cover (around 50% covered with grass) or poor to non-existent grass cover), as well as by the socio-economic leve! of the neighborhood where they were located ( upper -Leve! 1, middle -Level 11, lower rniddle -Leve! III and lower -Leve! IV). Toxocara spp. contamination was found to be 37 ± 11 % and 30 ± 9% for parks in Callao and southem Lima. In parks with good, moderate and poor grass cover, rates of 100%, 100% and 6% were found in the Callao area, compared to 42 %, 4 7% and 21 % in the parks of southem Lima. Evaluation of the parks according to socio-economic level revealed that in Callao, parks in levels 1, 11, III and IV had contarnination rates of 100%, 48%, 27% and 40%, while rates of 60%, 17% and 27% were found in the level 11, III and IV parks of southern Lima. Parks with good and moderate grass cover were restricted to socioeconornic levels 1 and 11, while parks with poor grass cover were found in leve! IV neighborhoods. The abundant grass cover and high humidity of well tended level 1 and 11 parks apparently explains the survival of Toxocara spp. eggs, while the poor grass cover and lack of watering in lower leve! parks leaves the eggs exposed to direct solar radiation leading to their destruction. Positive samples were incubated in a 2.5% potassium dichromate solution and orally inoculated in mice to verify the viability of eggs. Subsequently, migrant larva were recovered demonstrating the infective capacity ofthe Toxocara spp. eggs recovered during this study. Key words: Toxocara canis, Toxascaris leonina, parks, ascarides, zoonosis. ResumenSe evaluó la contaminación con huevos de Toxocara spp. de parques públicos de la Provincia Constitucional del Callao y del cono sur de Lima Metropolitana para determinar el riesgo existente en salud pública de la población aledaña. Se colectaron muestras de tierra y césped en 176 de los 479 parques existentes (78 del Callao y 98 del cono Sur),
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
