Using an incomplete block design to allocate lines to environments improves sparse genome-based prediction in plant breeding

Osval Antonio Montesinos-Lopez ABELARDO MONTESINOS LOPEZ RICARDO ACOSTA DIAZ Rajeev Varshney Jose Crossa ALISON BENTLEY (2022, [Artículo])

Genomic selection (GS) is a predictive methodology that trains statistical machine-learning models with a reference population that is used to perform genome-enabled predictions of new lines. In plant breeding, it has the potential to increase the speed and reduce the cost of selection. However, to optimize resources, sparse testing methods have been proposed. A common approach is to guarantee a proportion of nonoverlapping and overlapping lines allocated randomly in locations, that is, lines appearing in some locations but not in all. In this study we propose using incomplete block designs (IBD), principally, for the allocation of lines to locations in such a way that not all lines are observed in all locations. We compare this allocation with a random allocation of lines to locations guaranteeing that the lines are allocated to

the same number of locations as under the IBD design. We implemented this benchmarking on several crop data sets under the Bayesian genomic best linear unbiased predictor (GBLUP) model, finding that allocation under the principle of IBD outperformed random allocation by between 1.4% and 26.5% across locations, traits, and data sets in terms of mean square error. Although a wide range of performance improvements were observed, our results provide evidence that using IBD for the allocation of lines to locations can help improve predictive performance compared with random allocation. This has the potential to be applied to large-scale plant breeding programs.

Prevención de infecciones por Acinetobacter baumannii en la unidad de cuidados intensivos de adultos de un hospital de segundo nivel de atención

GEORGINA ROMERO GENARO (2023, [Otro, Trabajo terminal, especialidad])

El Acinetobacter es un cocobacilo aerobio gramnegativo que se ha descrito desde un

organismo de patogenicidad cuestionable hasta el de un agente infeccioso de gran

importancia hospitalaria en todo el mundo y se presenta en pacientes susceptibles con

mayor frecuencia en las unidades de cuidados intensivos (UCI). En nuestro país existen

estudios relacionado con este microorganismo que sustenta la importancia de la

prevención.

Este trabajo de investigación titulado “Prevención por acinetobacter baumannii en la

unidad de cuidados intensivos de un hospital de segundo nivel de atención”, tiene como

objetivo prevenir las infecciones asociadas por Acinetobacter baumannii. Mediante tres

variables las cuales son: higiene de manos, limpieza y desinfección de material y equipo

y la técnica de barrera máxima.

Se realizó un estudio de tipo cuantitativo, descriptivo y observacional. La muestra de

estudio está conformada por 30 profesionales de enfermería que se encuentran adscritas

a la UCI. Se realiza una evaluación de conocimientos a través de un instrumento sobre

las medidas de prevención que consta de 10 preguntas con opción multiple donde los

criterios de evaluación son: muy bueno, bueno y deficiente esta medición sustenta la

necesidad de la realización de este estudio. Con respecto al conocimiento que tiene el

personal profesional de enfermería encuestado sobre la eficiencia de las medidas de

prevención por acinetobacter baumannii se obtuvo un indicador de eficiencia general

bueno de un 72%. Los resultados por variable fueron los siguientes: el 80% fue de

conocimiento, el 63% al lavado de manos, 72% corresponde a la limpieza y desinfección

del material y equipo así como por último se obtuvo el 80% en la técnica de barrera

máxima.

Estos resultados nos permiten implementar las medidas preventivas mediante la difusión

con base en la NOM-045-SSA-2015 para la vigilancia epidemiológica, prevención y

control de las infecciones asociadas a la atención de la salud, al personal de enfermería

de la UCI.

Acinetobacter is a gram-negative aerobic coccobacillus that has been described from an

organism of questionable pathogenicity to that of an infectious agent of great hospital

importance worldwide and occurs in susceptible patients more frequently in intensive care

units (ICU). In our country there are studies related to this microorganism that support the

importance of prevention.

This research work entitled "Prevention of Acinetobacter baumannii in the intensive care

unit of a second level care hospital", aims to prevent infections associated with

Acinetobacter baumannii. By means of three variables which are: hand hygiene, cleaning

and disinfection of airway material and equipment and the maximum barrier technique.

A quantitative, descriptive and observational study was carried out. The study sample

consisted of 30 nursing professionals assigned to the ICU. Knowledge was evaluated by

means of an instrument on prevention measures consisting of 10 multiple-choice

questions where the evaluation criteria are: very good, good and deficient, this

measurement supports the need to carry out this study. With respect to the knowledge

that the professional nursing personnel surveyed have about the efficiency of

acinetobacter baumannii prevention measures, a good overall efficiency indicator of 72%

was obtained. The results by variable were as follows: 80% were for knowledge, 63% for

hand washing, 72% for cleaning and disinfection of material and equipment, and 80% for

the maximum barrier technique.

These results allow us to implement preventive measures through dissemination based

on NOM-045-SSA-2015 for epidemiological surveillance, prevention and control of

healthcare-associated infections, to ICU nursing staff.
