Introduction: The following case describes a 4-month-old canine patient, poodle breed, not sterilized, suffering from urinary incontinence from an early age. Several clinical tests were performed to reach the diagnosis, among them were blood chemistry, hemogram, elemental and microscopic urine analysis, x-rays, and an ultrasound given the plausible diagnosis of an ectopic ureter. With the anamnesis and the results of the tests, an exploratory laparotomy was performed, in which adhesions were found in the right ureterovesical junction, ruling out the ectopic ureter. The surgical resolve was based on the release of the ureter and subsequently, the colposuspension technique described by Holt in 1990 was applied, thus allowing better positioning of the bladder and ureters at the abdominal level. Objective: To describe the findings, resolve, and treatment employed in the clinical case. Methodology: This case report describes the examinations performed and the surgical technique used to correct the obstruction at the ureterovesical junction of the patient. Outcomes: After surgical resolution, the patient evolved favorably. It is determined that the ureter release and colposuspension were effective, which is corroborated by the absence of abnormalities in the clinical tests. Conclusion: Taking into consideration the patient's risk of developing renal disease in the short or long term, the management of the clinical case was age-appropriate since it allowed the medical team to conduct auspicious management of the clinical case described

Introduction: The present analysis starts from the inquiry of the academic formation of the architect and the application of the contents of geometry with the different projects that are dictated in the second semester of the Architecture Major, pretending to overcome the traditionalism of the pedagogical models using the solution to the concrete needs of the context, besides having very clear the investigative work that generates the study, and to show analytical results, and objectives through the integrating project which provides skills and competences to develop in the solution of a problem. Objectives: The objective is to apply the contents of the formative projects through pedagogical activities for interdisciplinary and transdisciplinary development in an innovative architectural design based on the origin of geometry as a specific area of mathematics. Methodology: it is oriented to the description and interpretation of the fundamental combinations of the experience and the meaning of the pedagogical value applied in the students, who support the practical exercise and activities in the project process in architecture and urbanism, on the other hand, the methodological approach used was phenomenological-hermeneutic, aimed at the interpretation and recognition of relationships and practices of everyday pedagogy exhibiting and contributing from the educational inquiry and investigative practice. Results: The student is prepared to analyze the context in a specialized and competitive way through the linkage with teaching and the practical work of integration, recognizing the argument that fits with all the characteristics for the elaboration of the design of a cultural center using the contents of geometry when shaping an architectural object with all its components. Conclusions: It was concluded that the practice of integration of knowledge of the different formative projects and geometry in architecture contributes to the professional profile of the architect, enabling the student to create new knowledge and identify the problems of the context and capture in the design of architectural works that are visualized in a balanced and harmonious way.

Introduction: in this study, an evaluation was made between three types of gantries with bracing: V-bracing gantries, Inverted V bracing gantries and K-bracing gantries for seven-story buildings according to national and U.S. codes. Methodology: began with a preliminary design of the structural elements of main and secondary columns, beams, slabs, and crossings, followed by the corresponding design, and first the compressibility and flexibility of each element was checked. Objectives: to finalize the comparative design of a building with steel structure braced concentrically in V, in inverted V and in K. To perform a seismic analysis of a system with concentric bracing in V, inverted V, and k. To identify appropriate structural models that meet the requirements of building design. Results: with the help of finite element software, each structural element is modeled, the properties and specifications of its elements are entered, a static and dynamic analysis is performed, and for this purpose the combinations of load and spectra are determined, as well as the distribution and elevation configuration, as well as the seismic zones according to the revised design,  all of which makes the 7-story structure seismic resistant according to all building inspection standards specified by Ecuadorian regulations (NEC 2015). We also compared the three diverse types of bracing and an analysis of the cost of structures with the three bracing. Conclusions: in the end, it was concluded that inverted V bracing was the best type of design because it had less drift than the two previous designs with a value of less than 2% and had good structural performance compared to other checks in the previous design. In the article, the dynamic analysis corresponds to X and Y more than 80%, the rotation analysis is less than 30%, and the mass participation is more than 90%.

Introduction: the canine Distemper virus causes a disease of great lethality in a wide spectrum of hosts, including animals belonging to the order Carnivora, and due to the existence of many susceptible hosts, immunization through systematic vaccination is the only effective prophylactic measure for its control, although there have also been occasional outbreaks of the disease in vaccinated animals. Infection can cause a variety of clinical presentations, affecting the respiratory, gastrointestinal, integumentary, and nervous systems. Being the most common neurological manifestation encephalomyelitis and its clinical signs can be varied, due to the damage that the virus causes in both the white and gray matter of the nervous system. Objective:  to identify the importance of histopathology in the diagnosis of Canine Distemper, to know the main pathological findings present in patients with this disease of viral origin, to analyze the importance of a good diagnosis in Canine Distemper. Methodology: literature review. Results: neurodegeneration was evidenced in naturally infected canines, both vaccinated and unvaccinated animals, evaluating the presence, intensity and distribution of lesions caused by the virus in the brain and cerebellum. Conclusions: with respect to histopathological lesions, the constant finding is demyelination, in addition to the presence of gliosis, leptomeningitis, perivascular cuffs, necrosis and inclusion bodies in several histological sections, these findings being more severe in the cerebellum; this is how this work evidences the importance of histopathology in the diagnosis of canine distemper or distemper.  General area of study: Veterinary Medicine. Specific study area: Microbiology / Pathological Anatomy.

Introduction: due to the situation experienced by COVID 19, and the fact that initial education students struggle with their fine motor skills, which could also suggest other problems with their visuomotor coordination, digital gripper grip, agility and precision in their movements; The importance of this research is that fine motor skills are a key component of general cognitive development.  Objective: to determine the importance of recreational activities and the development of fine motor skills in 4-year-old initial education students in the Santa Rosa Educational Unit. Methodology: quantitative, quasi-experimental approach and a descriptive, correlative design with a sample size of twenty-four students in the control group and twenty-five students in the experimental group, to determine whether parametric tests are performed or not, normality tests were applied. Results: a nonparametric test was performed to verify the hypothesis. The most striking findings that stood out in the study were the following: for the experimental group in the pretest, a mean of 2.28 on a scale of five meant "started", and for the experimental group in the posttest, a mean of 4.84 meant "acquired".

Introduction: This document represents the development and presentation of an environmental study that can be used either in theory or practice as it provides new local data regarding the emission of noise pollution levels concentrated in the center of the Guayaquil city belonging to Guayas province. Objective: Analyze the noise pollution caused by a series of factors such as vehicular traffic concentrated in the center of the city of Guayaquil. Methodology: Samples from a main area of ​​the city of Guayaquil, since it is a main sector of vehicular flow that circulates in a north-south direction and vice versa, this sector represents one of the points of commercial development and large vehicular traffic. Knowing the acoustic levels and after taking samples using the integrated sound level meter for acoustic measurement, the analysis of the data provided by the instrument is conducted to determine the existence or not of acoustic contamination. Results: This type of study, which is part of the first conducted in the city of Guayaquil, provides useful information that places said city, together with the Agrarian University of Ecuador, in the environmental vanguard, leaving technical environmental research as a precedent. The information experienced in this study is considered optimal and pertinent for the execution and elaboration of socioeconomic and economic-environmental analysis. Conclusion: With the study of the data obtained through the measurements, it can be deduced that the sound pressure levels recorded exceed the thresholds allowed and established in the technical standard of the Ministry of the Environment of Ecuador, which can cause irreparable damage to the health conditions of the people who are around or live in the sampled sector.

Introduction: The constructive quality has had a great interest worldwide trying to improve the approach of construction, however, referring to vernacular houses there is little interest derived from the lack of information and regulatory standards. Objective: to achieve the constructive quality of houses on land determining their range of vulnerability, in two case studies within the city of Riobamba. Methodology: the present research proposes an analytical study of the constructive quality of houses on land to determine their range of vulnerability of two case studies within the city of Riobamba, the applied methodology will resort to a non-experimental design in a transversal way, of quantitative and qualitative character, with an explanatory scope where it is intended to facilitate the understanding of the criteria described. There will be instruments such as interviews, architectural and photographic surveys obtained in-situ from two case studies that help the complete understanding of the project. Results: the research process presents as a result the built reality and constructive quality that shows two case studies, defining that quality conditions are possible if they are accompanied by technical research, public policies and management models that guarantee optimal conservation prioritizing non-monumental residential homes that tend to have a very important value in the conception of a sustainable densified city.  Conclusions: pointing out the cases studied, two different scenarios were found around the way of acting of their constructive conditions, conditioned first by the link and interest of their owners and second by the public policies of conservation and restoration of patrimonial real estate.
