Abstract:
The use of drugs, in Honduras, involves 25% of college students. The most used substances include legal and recreational drugs, such as alcohol. This study aimed to identify the use of drugs and socio-demographic factors in a sample of 260 medical students. RESULTS: Average age of 20 years old, unemployed and religious women, single, with no children. Alcohol was the most consumed drug in the last six months for recreational purposes. The following stimulants were frequently consumed: caffeine, mate herb tea, energetic drinks and Coke. Drugs like marijuana, cocaine, valium and sedatives were used in smaller proportions. The reasons reported by women were: to alleviate tiredness and improve their academic performance. The men's reasons were recreation and to alleviate psychological tension. This research has implications for the development of drugs prevention programs in universities.

Abstract:
During February 2012–February 2014, fifteen new lepidopterans new to Honduras were found on Cerro de Hula and Montaña de Izopo, near Tegucigalpa, Francisco Morazán. Eleven of these have known ranges north and south of Honduras, and thus were expected to occur. Four species are known only from countries north of Honduras; these new records imply range extensions. Many of these first country records involve species characteristic of oak woodlands, highlighting the need for research in this widespread and vulnerable habitat in Honduras.

Abstract:
In July 2010, the government of Honduras requested VCOM assistance with a widespread Dengue Outbreak. At the time of the mission trip, over 33,000 Hondurans had been hospitalized for Dengue Fever and a National State of Emergency declared. VCOM sent a team of medical students, faculty and volunteers to answer the call for help. The Honduran government selected five villages where the need for medical attention was greatest. The team provided medical exams, treatment or referral when necessary to approximately 200 patients in each of the five villages. General medical exams were provided in addition to screenings for Dengue Fever and subsequent supportive treatment including oral rehydration salts, Tylenol, vitamins and treatment of complications. National and local strategic partnerships to provide emergency medical response services included the Minister of Health, Minister of Defense, Minister of Transportation and Housing and office of the President of Honduras; Deans of the National and Catholic Medical Schools; President of the Board of Medicine and other governmental and non-governmental offices; Mayors and local officials, and often local media. At Marcala, the Minister of Public Transportation and Housing arrived by Helicopter from Tegucigalpa to greet the VCOM team and patients at the clinic; and at Santa Maria del Real, the Honduran President's son met the team personally. The Honduran support for VCOM's ongoing continuity of health and improved medical care efforts in the country was evident. The trip enhanced the skills and knowledge of participating students and faculty. Student Jenie Sales writes, “I not only enhanced my own clinical experience and knowledge, but I obtained a greater understanding for the people and culture of Honduras.” Student opportunities for reflective learning included case study writing, surveys and evaluations. The successful experience will lead to increased knowledge in the care of patients during a Dengue outbreak.

Abstract:
The possible effects of pipe materials on drinking water quality have been analyzed in the distribution system of the water treatment plant of "La La Concepciónâ " in Tegucigalpa, Honduras. "La La Concepciónâ " is a surface water reservoir experiencing biogeochemical cycling of manganese. Black water problems have been reported in the distribution system since 1998. An evaluation of the potential influence that PVC and iron pipes could have on the concentration of iron and manganese in drinking water, the effects caused by the presence of manganese in PVC and iron pipe surfaces, and residual chlorine and Pb concentrations in the distribution system was performed. The sampled neighborhoods received an intermittent service. Water was suspended for 8 hours every day due to water quantity problems in the city. Water and pipe samples were obtained for PVC and galvanized iron pipes because these constitute the majority of the infrastructure used for distribution systems in Honduras. Thermodynamic and kinetic conditions for possible manganese oxidation by chlorine and dissolved oxygen in the distribution system were also evaluated. As expected, total Fe concentrations were greater for first flush conditions from the iron pipe. Water samples obtained from the PVC pipe showed higher total Mn concentrations and more black color than those obtained from the iron pipe for both first flush and continuous flow conditions. Residual chlorine decayed relatively fast along the sampled section of the distribution system. Pb concentrations were detected on water samples obtained from PVC for first flush and continuous flow and on iron pipe for first flush. Preliminary experiments showed that manganese-oxidizing and -reducing bacteria were present in the walls of both PVC and iron pipes. Higher numbers of colony-forming microorganisms were recovered from iron (30-fold more) compared to PVC pipe sections. However, the majority of isolates from the PVC biofilm (8 of 10, 80 %) were capable of Mn-oxidation while only 35 % (11 of 31) of isolates from the iron biofilm sample demonstrated Mn-oxidation. This research demonstrates the importance of the different interactions between water and the infrastructure used for its supply in producing safe drinking water.

Abstract:
Tegucigalpa, the capital of Honduras, has experienced an unsatisfied water demand during the last three decades. The state owned water utility in charge of the water supply of the country, SANAA, has faced this deficit by providing an intermittent water supply. The intermittent water supply has increased the gap between the rich and the poor, who cannot afford water storage facilities. Theories explain water scarcity either by low precipitation or by lack of investment in water structures. This thesis investigates the applicability of both explanations by quantifying the annual precipitation in the sub catchments with water supply potential for Tegucigalpa, and identifying the problems which caused the lack of investment into the water infrastructure. The analysis concluded that even if the annual precipitation is abundant, it is not evenly distributed in time and in space. Furthermore, it is argued that the financial limitations which hindered the lack of investment in water structures originated in the low tariffs imposed, and to the practices of the patronage system.

There is a need to counteract economic injustice in the world. As an architect, as a creator, it is my responsibility to make the world a better place. I want to help people to help themselves by concentrating their efforts in a constructive way. I desire to create a prototypical solution for a village in an area with high unemployment and desperate poverty as a means to give work to people and to serve as an example for other groups of people wanting to do the same. The site I've chosen to illustrate this concept of self-help housing is a 300 x 500 meter plateau in Tegucigalpa, Honduras.

Abstract:

This study investigated leadership emergence and growth from the perspective of a purposeful criterion sample of Evangelical pastors in Tegucigalpa, Honduras. Their description of their stories regarding how they emerged as leaders and how they grew as leaders was the primary source of data acquired through semi-structured interviews.

There is a need for greater clarify regarding the processes by which a person emerges and comes to embody the virtues and attributes needed for leadership. Leadership is culturally contingent, but there is a lack of specificity in understanding how the Latin American culture influences leadership emergence and growth.

Three research questions guided this study: (1) How do Evangelical pastors describe how they emerged as leaders?; (2) How do Evangelical pastors describe how they grew as leaders?; (3) What Latin American cultural elements can be observed in the Evangelical pastors' descriptions of how they emerged and grew as leaders?

The literature discussed caudillismo, a prototype of leadership in Latin America, which includes elements of high-power distance, machismo, and paternalism.

Using snowball sampling, twenty-five pastors were chosen and the interview data revealed twelve processes by which these pastors emerged as leaders. For instance, the accompaniment of others was key as was having firsthand experiences in ministry, which moved them to compassionate, on-going action. They emerged because someone saw something in them, named it and opened up spaces (opportunities) for "acts of leadership." Contrary to expectations, training played almost no role in emergence but did in leadership growth.

Seven processes were identified that promoted their growth, like being self-taught, sharing interdenominationally, and keeping an open mind. Six cultural dimensions were observed as having a direct influence (both positive and negative) on leadership emergence and growth: (1) High tolerance for uncertainty; (2) Diffuse culture; (3) Image of limited good; (4) Caudillismo; (5) Ascribed status; (6) Self-effacing (modesty).

This study meets the need for academic inquiry on leadership in Latin America, in Spanish, in the hope that it stimulates Latin Americans to analyze their own leadership, and informs expatriates who serve Latin Americans how to better participate with God in helping leaders emerge and grow.

A pesquisa é estruturada a partir da dimensão social do espaço na qual a apropriação dos espaços públicos pode ser um dos elementos para construir e fortalecer o respeito à diversidade de uma sociedade. O interesse da pesquisa é compreender e explicar os diferentes tipos de apropriação que acontecem na Plaza Central de Tegucigalpa, Honduras. Para alcançar esse objetivo, parte-se da análise da construção de significados ligados ao espaço ao longo da história até a atualidade, analisando-lhes sob os parâmetros de apropriação de Enric Pol, especificamente adotando como referência metodológica seu modelo dual de apropriação do espaço. Nesse, o espaço público é carregado historicamente de valores simbólicos políticos e sociais formados pelas transformações e experiências nele desenvolvidas; expressos em marcas espaciais deixadas por gestores e usuários, que permitem o reconhecimento de seu papel representativo da identidade local da sociedade. Na Plaza Central de Tegucigalpa esta ação de apropriação, tem tido uma intenção elitista e excludente por parte dos gestores do espaço público reconhecível na apropriação excludente dos espaços públicos por parte dos grupos sociais tradicionalmente marginalizados; condição que tem dificultado a construção de diversos e heterogêneos laços sociais impulsionado segregação e pouca democracia na vida social da cidade. Em conjunto, evidencia a transformação dos espaços públicos patrimoniais de Tegucigalpa para o uso e conforto urbano exclusivo de certos grupos e a exclusão de outros. A pesquisa adota método de abordagem qualitativo, envolvendo procedimentos de pesquisa histórica e estudo de caso com a finalidade de verificar se a Plaza Central de Tegucigalpa cumpre com seu papel de diversidade e patrimonial.

Abstract:
The primary purpose of this research was to compare quantifiable structural asymmetry to changes visualized in center of pressure (CoP) and/or postural sway by the use of an Isobalance forceplate in order to introduce principles of osteopathic medicine to a Latin America culture. Osteopathic manual medicine (OMM) was used to correct structural dysfunction found in the study participants at the Baxter Institute in Tegucigalpa, Honduras. Study participants were students and staff members ranging in age from 18 to 35 and consisting of 24 males and two females. The examination period lasted a total of five weeks. During weeks one, three, and five, baseline measurements were taken prior to manipulation using .05 alpha to test significance. Measurements were repeated post OMM. An educational video was provided during each session. Pretest and posttest results demonstrated an improvement in understanding of OMM materials provided to participants. A bivariable chi-square test found that, when manipulated, those with sacrum dysfunction have an association with a positive improvement in postural sway (TIC 1 & 2) (p<.05). Also, the multivariable logistic regression model found that individuals who had no initial change in postural sway (TIC 1 & 2) were more likely to move to a positive improvement of time in the center of the premeasured diameter calculated by the Isobalance forceplate, than a decrease in time spent in the center (i.e. negative improvement) throughout the time of the study (p<.05).

Abstract:
La promoción del desarrollo humano sostenible como utopía en la gestión del bienestar de la población es un paradigma que busca el equilibrio entre el crecimiento económico para mejorar las condiciones de vida de los habitantes preservando y recuperando el medio y sus ecosistemas. Esta memoria de tesis pretende aportar al análisis de las causas y efectos de la gestión integrada de recursos hídricos en Honduras, con énfasis en el Caso de la ciudad de Tegucigalpa y su aporte al desarrollo humano sostenible a través de estructuras sociales e institucionales de gestión. Las obras de los economistas North, Sen y Ostrom, premios nobeles de economía 1993, 1998 y 2009 marcan la lectura de la situación de agua y desarrollo sostenible a través del concepto aplicado de GIRH en el caso de la ciudad de Tegucigalpa y la multidimensional hacia la justicia, libertad, gobernanza a través de colectivos empoderados. La problemática en el acceso de calidad y cantidad de agua para uso en Honduras se aborda en cada capítulo con la visión integral del problema de gestión integral del agua en la ciudad de Tegucigalpa, donde hace más de treinta años hay problemas de abastecimiento. Para centrarse en el análisis de aguas urbanas y el caso de Tegucigalpa, hace falta hablar que los temas relacionados con el recurso hídrico del ámbito urbano frecuentemente se mantienen desconectados de procesos más amplios de la planificación urbana y de la gestión en el ámbito de la cuenca. Los planes maestros urbanos no han logrado manejar satisfactoriamente los diversos componentes infraestructurales de la gestión de las aguas urbanas (suministro de agua, aguas residuales, saneamiento seco, sistemas de drenaje del agua pluvial y tratamiento de desechos sólidos). Más aún, si bien el suministro de agua, el saneamiento y la planificación de asentamientos urbanos podrían ser incorporados dentro de los planes de gestión para toda la cuenca, estos planes descuidan el reconocimiento de la interdependencia entre el agua dulce, el agua residual, el control de inundaciones y el agua pluvial. El objetivo general de esta Memoria de tesis es hacer una contribución al desarrollo humano sostenible de Honduras a través del análisis y discusión académica de la gestión integral de aguas urbanas de la ciudad de Tegucigalpa. Para ello, se analiza el vínculo entre los postulados teóricos del desarrollo humano y desarrollo institucional hacia la implementación del concepto aplicado de gestión integral del recurso hídrico en la ciudad de Tegucigalpa. Se describe la situación actual de los servicios de agua potable y saneamiento a través de la mirada del paradigma de gestión integral de aguas urbanas. Se identifican las intervenciones necesarias y su viabilidad técnico ambiental, social, financiera que contribuya a una mejor gobernanza de la gestión del agua de la ciudad de Tegucigalpa y por último, se hacer un análisis prospectivo de escenarios del impacto de las inversiones en la implementación de la Gestión Integral de recursos hídricos (GIRH) en los servicios básicos de Agua Potable y Saneamiento, y el impacto que provocaría en el desarrollo humano sostenible de la ciudad. En Honduras, las múltiples carencias de acceso a bienestar de carácter urgente ponen al ámbito pragmático y ejecutor antes que la reflexión epistemológica de un campo del conocimiento, siendo necesario abrir brechas a nuevas formas de interrelación entre lo académico y lo práctico. El abastecimiento de agua potable inmediatamente mejora la salud de las personas y les ahorra tiempo, que ellos pueden emplear para estudiar o mejorar sus medios de vida para que puedan ganar más, alimentarse más nutritivamente, disfrutar de una vida más saludable y contribuir a la economía local (y nacional). Además, un mejor servicio de saneamiento protege a los pobres de entornos sociales y físicos degradantes, de riesgos para la salud y de la exposición a condiciones ambientales peligrosas. Las condiciones de vulnerabilidad y riesgo al acceso a agua potable y saneamiento en la ciudad de Tegucigalpa hacen de la ciudad un centro urbano con limitaciones en su libertad hacia el crecimiento económico, desarrollo humano y acceso a justicia social. Se identificaron esfuerzos por medir la cantidad de agua en alta y su modelación natural, en evento extremos, en escenarios de sequía y otros. El limitado acceso a agua potable y la permanente situación de carencia de un servicio de calidad afecta a toda de la población. La situación de racionamiento es permanente, a quienes tienen acceso a la red, donde a pesar de contar con redes de distribución estas permanecen sin funcionamiento. La racionalidad del servicio ha generado una cultura de la gestión de la escasez haciendo inversiones de depósitos de diversos materiales y cisternas subterráneas en la escala domiciliar. El costo por acceso al agua potable es una condicionante para la deteriorada condición de vida de alrededor de más de medio millón de habitantes. La limitación de acceso a agua potable es un catalizador de una latente situación de conflicto en las comunidades donde la intermitencia del servicio es un asunto permanente que tiene implicaciones del uso de otros recursos y asignación permanente a la gestión individual, principalmente responsabilizando principalmente a la mujer. La construcción de obras civiles es una de las principales inversiones que deben ejecutarse para la promoción de una gestión del agua que promueve el desarrollo humano, favorece la cooperación de individuos y colectivo en un entorno favorable, fuera del escenario critico de escasez, sino en uno cooperador. Las inversiones en agua potable y saneamiento habilitan el territorio para la inversión a través de la generación de confianza y reducción de la incertidumbre como un elemento disonante para la generación de ideas. Las garantías jurídicas, claridad de seguridad jurídica y el acceso al recurso de forma abierta generan espacios para la creación de bienestar económico y con ello ingresos al Estado, como garante distribuidor (Melgarejo & Molina, 2017).

Since the 1800's, technological advances have extended the foundation on which telemedicine could build. With its evolution, telemedicine has proven to be a means of offering effective health care interventions, from a multitude of disciplines. Teledermatology, a specialty application of telemedicine, offers great potential in improving the standard of dermatologic care by bridging the gap between the expert opinion of dermatologists and those without access to basic dermatologic care, particularly in developing nations, where skin disease continues to be a major public health problem. In Honduras, the setting for this study, and other developing nations, technology to support telemedicine is available. Dermatologic disease is among the most common disease presentations in the developing world, which left untreated due to a lack of access to adequate medical care, can progress causing increased morbidity or even death. A potential but untested solution is teledermatology. Teledermatology offers great potential in improving the standard of dermatologic care by bridging the gap between the expert opinion of dermatologists and those without access to basic dermatologic care. The purpose of this study was to evaluate the prevalence and types of dermatologic conditions and the feasibility of a store-and-forward teledermatology system in an underserved area of Honduras, so as to potentially provide more timely diagnosis and treatment, implementation of preventative measures, and offer long term solutions.so as The justification and significance of this study was the potential of store-and-forward teledermatology to improve the standard of dermatologic care by improving access of populations in underserved areas to dermatology specialists through affordable technology. The methodology of this study was primarily case study descriptive. This study was conducted at a public primary care clinic (JMA Clinic) and satellite sites in underserved areas of Francisco Morazán, Honduras. During a four week period in Spring 2011, patients with dermatologic conditions were examined and photos taken of condition. The patient information was sent to 3 U.S. board certified dermatologists, who provided diagnosis and treatment within 24 hours, which allowed the clinic physician sufficient time to review recommendations before patient follow-up. Patients would receive follow-up within 48 hours of initial visit. Diagnostic agreement, image quality, and user satisfaction were evaluated. IRB forms were submitted and clearance given. The data was analyzed with SPSS using descriptive statistics. The primary findings were the types of dermatologic conditions, interobserver agreement, image quality, and patient and physician satisfaction. The findings of this study substantiate the need for dermatologic care, as approximately 1 out of every 5 patients of the JMA Clinic presented with a dermatologic condition. The majority of these patients were children or women in their late 20s and early 30s; many of whom had their condition for more than a year and most had not received prior therapy. The types of dermatologic conditions observed were typical of that seen at a dermatology clinic in the U.S., yet inclusive of tropical and regional differences. Dermatitis, infectious and pigmentary conditions were the most common presentations. The interobserver diagnostic agreement achieved was 78%, and improved when considering differential diagnoses. Image quality received high ratings. Patients and physicians recorded a high level of overall satisfaction. Physicians indicated improved knowledge of teledermatology. Because of the unique environment and circumstances, the results are limited to the setting in which the study occurs. This project was a pilot study limited to 4 weeks of data collection and will be limited in significance by its duration and small sample size with respect to the conclusions that can be drawn about the prevalence and types of dermatologic conditions. This study illustrates that teledermatology is a viable means of providing dermatologic care to those in an underserved area of Honduras, where a lack of or limited access to general healthcare or specialty dermatologic care exists. The data offers insights to draw conclusions and recommendations on the potential for similar models to be implemented in underserved areas throughout Honduras and other similar regions.

Abstract:
Medir los factores determinantes del éxito competitivo de la PYME Agroindustrial de Tegucigalpa, M.D.C. en Honduras, es fundamental, considerando que el sector representa 45% del Producto Interno Bruto (PIB) y 66 % de las exportaciones y es la actual apuesta productiva para el país. El presente estudio es el resultado de una investigación empírica de tipo cualitativa-cuantitativa-descriptiva, su diseño es no experimental debido a que no se manipularon las variables. Se aplicó una entrevista estructurada a 30 representantes sectoriales, los resultados indican que, si la PYME Agroindustrial cuenta con productos de calidad, buen servicio al cliente y la preparación/formación del personal, mayor será la probabilidad de tener éxito competitivo. Con relación al nivel de competitividad un 86.67 % de las MYPE no elaboran Plan Estratégico, 66.67% indican no contar con manuales de producción de sus procesos y 70 % requieren de Sistemas de Información. Los datos obtenidos son especialmente útiles porque contribuyen a conocer los factores determinantes de competitividad del sector, información que es de interés para los gerentes/propietarios PYME, que sirvan de base para el desarrollo de estudios empírico futuros y contribuyan con instituciones nacionales e internacionales para diseñar y promover estrategias y políticas que favorezcan a mejorar la competitividad del sector agroindustrial.
