Many weather records are measured under specific conditions—such as surface temperature and wind speed—to keep consistency among measurements around the Earth.

Each of these records is understood to be the record value officially observed, as these records may have been exceeded before modern weather instrumentation was invented, or in remote areas without an official weather station. This list does not include remotely sensed observations such as satellite measurements, since those values are not considered official records.

Castilla is a vaguely defined historical region of Spain. There are different conceptions and definitions of Castile, and since it lacks modern day official recognition, it has no clearly defined borders.

Historically, the Kingdom of Castile occupied the area. After the kingdom merged with its neighbours to become the Crown of Castile and later the Kingdom of Spain, when it united with the Crown of Aragon and the Kingdom of Navarre, the definition of what constituted Castile gradually began to change. Its historical capital was Burgos. Cantabria and La Rioja in the north of Spain are sometimes also included in the definition, but this is controversial for historical reasons and the strong sense of unique cultural identity of those regions.

Coccidioidomycosis is a systemic endemic mycosis caused by two dimorphic fungi of the Coccidioides genus: Coccidioides immitis and Coccidioides posadasii. This fungal infection is only endemic in the American Continent. The majority of the epidemiological, pathogenic, clinical, mycological and therapeutical findings were obtained in the U. In the last two decades, a new endemic zone was found in the northeast of Brazil. Several countries of the region such as Mexico, Guatemala, Honduras, Venezuela and Argentina have performed epidemiological studies which allowed a better knowledge of the endemic areas and of the clinical characteristics of this mycosis.

We present the kinematical properties, distribution of spectroscopic subtypes, and stellar population subcomponents of the white dwarfs within 20 pc of the Sun. We find no convincing evidence of halo white dwarfs in the total 20 pc sample of white dwarfs nor is there convincing evidence of genuine thick disk subcomponent members within 20 parsecs. Virtually, the entire 20 pc sample likely belongs to the thin disk. The total DA to non-DA ratio of the 20 pc sample is 1. The addition of five new stars to the 20 pc sample yields a revised local space density of white dwarfs of 4.

If this interpretation is correct, this suggests the possibility that the same percentage have planets or asteroid-like bodies orbiting them. It has long been suspected that metal-polluted white dwarfs types DAZ , DBZ, and DZ and white dwarfs with dusty disks possess planetary systems, but a specific physical mechanism by which planetesimals are perturbed close to a white dwarf has not yet been fully posited. In this paper, we demonstrate that mass loss from a central star during post-main-sequence evolution can sweep planetesimals into interior mean motion resonances with a single giant planet.

These planetesimals are slowly removed through chaotic excursions of eccentricity that in time create radial orbits capable of tidally disrupting the planetesimal. Numerical N-body simulations of the solar system show that a sufficient number of planetesimals are perturbed to explain white dwarfs with both dust and metal pollution, provided other white dwarfs have more massive relic asteroid belts. Our scenario requires only one Jupiter-sized planet and a sufficient number of asteroids near its 2: Finally, we show that once a planetesimal is perturbed into a tidal crossing orbit, it will become disrupted after the first pass of the white dwarf, where a highly eccentric stream of debris forms the main reservoir for dust-producing collisions.

These simulations, in concert with observations of white dwarfs, place interesting limits on the frequency of planetary systems around main-sequence stars, the frequency of planetesimal belts, and the probability that dust may obscure future terrestrial planet finding missions. Hubble Space Telescope observations of cool white dwarf stars: Detection of new species of heavy elements. Observations of cool white dwarf stars with the Hubble Space Telescope HST has uncovered a number of spectral features from previouslly unobserved species.

In this paper we present the data on four cool white dwarfs. We present identifications, equivalent width measurements, and brief summaries of the significance of our findings. Many additional species of heavey elements were detected in GD 40 and G The clear detection of Mg II h and k in LDS B should, once an abundance determination is made, provide a clear test of the hypothesis that the DBA stars are the result of accretion from the interstellar medium.

This star contains no other clear features other than a tantalizing hint of C II with a P Cygni profile, and some expected He 1 lines. Micro deletion in the y-chromosome of egyptian infertile men. Semen orgasm and cytogenetic analysis were also done. The study included 50 Egyptian men, 30 patients with azoospermia or oligospermia and 20 fertile men as control.

Patients were classified into 2 groups, one having sertoli cells only SCO and the other suffering from maturation arrest MA according to testis biopsies. Three patients from SCO have been exposed to radiotherapy for different reasons. Results revealed that Building brands without mass media. Costs, market fragmentation, and new media channels that let customers bypass advertisements seem to be in league against the old ways of marketing. Relying on mass media campaigns to build strong brands may be a thing of the past.

Several companies in Europe, making a virtue of necessity, have come up with alternative brand-building approaches and are blazing a trail in the post-mass-media age. The Body Shop garnered loyalty with its support of environmental and social causes. Cadbury funded a theme park tied to its history in the chocolate business. Hugo Boss and Swatch backed athletic or cultural events that became associated with their brands. The various campaigns shared characteristics that could serve as guidelines for any company hoping to build a successful brand: Studying the methods of companies outside one's own industry and country can be instructive for managers.

Pilot testing and the use of a single and continuous measure of brand equity also help managers get the most out of novel approaches in their ever more competitive world.

For the stars brighter than B Comparative analysis of human masculinity. To study rapidly evolving male specific Y MSY genes we retrieved and analyzed nine such genes. Except for VCY, all other loci possess two or more pseudogenes on the Y chromosome. Sequence differences from functional genes show that BPY2, DAZ , XKRY, and RBMY each have one pseudogene for each one that is human specific, while others were generated well before the human-chimpanzee split, by means of duplication, retro-transposition or translocation.

Full Text Available Groundwater resources are of great importance in arid and semi-arid regions due to their ease of access and low extraction costs. Compared to studies conducted on the quantity of groundwater resources, less research has been devoted to groundwater qulity. The present study was thus designed and implemented to forecast groundwater chlorine variations in Dazful Plain in Khuzistan Province, Iran.

In this study, it was exploitedfor the simultaneous prediction of groundwater quality in different wells. For this purpose, meteorological parameters such as rain and ET0 as well as the quality parameters including EC, sodium, calcium, and magnesium were collected in ten wells in the study area on a seasonal basis over a period of 8 years. In the next step, the data thus collected were subjected to different "panel data" regression models including Common Effects, Fixed Effects, and Random Effects. The results showed that the Random Effects Regression Model was best suited for predicting groundwater quality.

We also report initial optical spectroscopic monitoring of several metal lines present in the photosphere and find no variability in the line strengths or radial velocities of the lines. Inactivation of thiol-dependent enzymes by hypothiocyanous acid: HOCl causes extensive tissue damage and plays a role in the progression of many inflammatory-based diseases.

Although HOSCN is a major MPO oxidant, particularly in smokers, who have elevated plasma thiocyanate, the role of this oxidant in disease is poorly characterized. HOSCN induces cellular damage by targeting thiols. However, the specific targets and mechanisms involved in this process are not well defined. In each case, the active-site thiol residue is particularly sensitive to oxidation, with evidence for reversible inactivation and the formation of sulfenyl thiocyanate and sulfenic acid intermediates, on treatment with HOSCN less than fivefold molar excess. This is the first direct evidence for the formation of protein sulfenic acids in HOSCN-treated cells and highlights the potential of this oxidant to perturb redox signaling processes.

He was an invincible warrior, wise ruler, god, general and medicine man. All these aspects of Hellenistic kingship are well known, however there is one subject that has not been studied by scholars, namely the capacity of Hellenistic kings to scare their enemies with their mere presence. The aegis is studied as the mythical justification of the invincibility and terribleness of the kings. Furthermore, we consider the possibility that this phenomenon was associated with the Macedonian kings prior to Alexander. Fue un guerrero invencible, un gobernante sabio, dios, general y curador.

This paper analyzes the ways in which the settlement of soldiers has been accomplished in the Hellenistic world. Firstly, I study the age of Alexander the Great as a precedent; Alexander has greatly used his soldiers in the foundation of new colonies as a way to protect and defend his conquests. This procedure has been also used by his successors, the Hellenistic kings. I study mainly the Seleucid and the Ptolemaic Kingdoms, stressing the different ways each of them has used, and the different purposes of their different settiement politics.

In the three cases deait the relations between Macedonians, Greeks, Natives and non-greeks in general in the new foundations are underlined. Encuentros entre la India y Occidente en el mundo antiguo. There are several testimonies about comercial and cultural relationships that, after the falling of Babilonia and unta the VI century of our edge, were made between next Orient and Occident in one side, and India on the other side.

Hormonal study was performed for all patients. Twenty six men had biopsies of the testes including 11 patients with hypospermatogenesis, 9 patients with maturation arrest, 4 patients with sertoli cell only syndrome and 2 patients with tubular sclerosis. In 14 men who did not have a testicular biopsy multiple, epididymal and testicular sperm aspirations under anesthesia failed and testicular sperm extraction was subsequently performed for ICSI.

DNA was isolated from blood samples. One of the patients had a history of cryptorchidism and the second had undergone a left side varicocelectomy. Testicular pathology showed sertoli cell only syndrome in both of them. Our experience adds to the current logic that men with azoospermia or severe oligospermia should be evaluated for Yq11 microdeletions before deciding to operate varicoceles or else scheduling them for assisted reproductive techniques. Targeted disruption of Boll in mice causes male-specific spermiogenic defects, but females are apparently fertile.

Whether BOLL is expressed during oogenesis in mammals also remains unclear. We have therefore investigated the expression of BOLL during fetal oogenesis in humans and mice. We demonstrate that BOLL protein is expressed in the germ cells of the human fetal ovary, at a later developmental stage than, and almost mutually-exclusive to, the expression of DAZL.

By quantifying the extent of co-expression of DAZL and BOLL with markers of meiosis, we show that this window likely corresponds to the later stages of meiotic prophase I. Finally, we demonstrate that Boll is also transiently expressed during oogenesis in the fetal mouse ovary, but is simultaneously co-expressed within the same germ cells as Dazl. We present the results of photographic observations' processing of Saturn's moons, Uranus, Neptune and their moons on the basis of MAO NAS of Ukraine photographic observational archive. The analysis of the results is given.

Observations were obtained using 4 telescopes: Observations were carried out during - http: Tycho2 was used as a reference system. The total amount of processed plates with images of Saturn's moons is frames , 33 plates contain the images of Uranus and U1,U2,U3,U4 moons, 29 plates have images of Neptune and N1 moon Yizhakevych et al.

On the FON project about photographic plates were exposed. The first stage of the work is the processing of the photographic plates in zones of the southern hemisphere with the declination between 0 and degrees. The plates have already been processed. The errors calculated for all stars are 0. For the stars brighter than 14 magnitude the errors are 0. There are many reports on associations between spermatogenesis and partial azoospermia factor c AZFc deletions as well as duplications; however, results are conflicting, possibly due to differences in methodology and ethnic background.

The purpose of this study is to investigate the association of AZFc polymorphisms and male infertility in the Yi ethnic population, residents within Yunnan Province, China. A total of infertile patients and fertile subjects were selected in the Yi ethnic population. Y haplotypes of cases and controls were defined by 12 binary markers using single nucleotide polymorphism on Y chromosome Y-SNP multiplex assays based on single base primer extension technology. The distribution of Y haplotypes was not significantly different between the case and control groups.

Similarly, single nucleotide variant SNV analysis shows no significant difference of gene copy definition between the cases and controls. However, the frequency of partial duplications in the infertile group 4. Distinctive pattern of expression of spermatogenic molecular markers in testes of azoospermic men with non-mosaic Klinefelter syndrome. Mature sperm cells can be found in testicular specimens extracted from azoospermic men with non-mosaic Klinefelter syndrome KS. The present study evaluates the expression of various known molecular markers of spermatogenesis in a population of men with KS and assesses the ability of those markers to predict spermatogenesis.

Two groups of men with non-obstructive azoospermia who underwent testicular sperm-retrieval procedures were included in the study: Each group was subdivided into mixed atrophy containing some mature sperm cells or Sertoli cell only syndrome according to testicular histology and cytology observations. Semi-quantitative histological morphometric analysis interstitial hyperplasia and hyalinization, tubules with cells and abnormal thickness of the basement membrane and expression of spermatogenetic markers DAZ , RBM, BOLL, and CDY1 were evaluated and compared among those subgroups.

Clear differences in the histological morphometry and spermatogenetic marker expression were noted between the KS and NK groups. There was a significant difference in the expression of spermatogenetic markers between the subgroups of the NK group as expected , while no difference could be discerned between the two subgroups in the KS group. We conclude that molecular spermatogenetic markers have a pattern of expression in men with KS that is distinctively different from that of men with NK, and that it precludes and limits their use for predicting spermatogenesis in the former.

It is suggested that this difference might be due to the specific highly abnormal histological morphometric parameters in KS specimens. We perform a detailed study of the impact on BAO measurements from choices in the methodology such as fiducial cosmology, clustering estimators, random catalogues, fitting templates, and covariance matrices. The theoretical systematic uncertainties in BAO parameters are found to be 0. The leading source of systematic uncertainty is related to the reconstruction techniques. Theoretical uncertainties are sub-dominant compared with the statistical uncertainties for BOSS survey, accounting 0.

We also present BAO-only distance scale constraints from the anisotropic analysis of the correlation function. Our constraints on the angular diameter distance DA z and the Hubble parameter H z , including both statistical and theoretical systematic uncertainties, are 1. This paper is part of a set that analyses the final galaxy clustering data set from BOSS. The measurements and likelihoods presented here are cross-checked with other BAO analysis in Alam et al.

The systematic error budget concerning the methodology on post-reconstruction BAO analysis presented here is used in Alam et al. We measure the redshift space distortions using the power-spectrum monopole, quadrupole, and hexadecapole inferred from quasars between redshifts 0. The errors take into account the full error budget, including systematics and statistical contributions.

Finally, we compare our measurements with other eBOSS companion papers and find excellent agreement, demonstrating the consistency and complementarity of the different methods used for analysing the data. Attractiveness of the female body: Preference for the average or the supernormal? Full Text Available The main purpose of the present study was to contrast the two hypotheses of female body attractiveness. We investigated the preference for three female body characteristics: There were participants of both genders.

Each set included six stimuli ranked from the lowest to the highest femininity level. Participants were asked to choose the stimulus within each set which they found most attractive task 1 and average task 2. One group of participants judged the body parts that were presented in the global context whole body, while the other group judged the stimuli in the local context isolated body parts only.

Analyses have shown that the most attractive WHR, buttocks and breasts are more feminine meaning smaller for WHR and larger for breasts and buttocks than average ones, for both genders and in both presentation contexts. The effect of gender was obtained only for the most attractive breasts: Finally, most attractive and average WHR and breasts were less feminine in the local than in the global context.

These results support the preference-for the supernormal hypothesis: Full Text Available Welding of metal materials belongs to non-demountable joints. Current trend especially in an automotive industry is to join materials with a different melting temperature. Most of all, there are dural profiles with ferrite or austenite steel. The reason for this is the effort to lower the weight of the whole construction and at the same time preserve sufficient mechanical characteristics. However, there is a big risk of different electrical potentials of both of these metals in this type of non-demountable joints.

The experimental part of this paper brings evaluation of mechanical-corrosion processes of overlapped joints produced by the CMT cold metal transfer method. Material AlSi5 in the form of a wire was used as an additional material for a welding bath. Method CMT was used in order to create a weld bead. Initial analysis of weld bead was done visually using a binocular microscope. Further, a metallographic analysis of weld bead and base material was processed. The aim was to identify the heat affected area around the welded joint.

Microhardness of intermetallic aluminium phases was measured, after the identification of intermetallic phases a chemical analysis EDS was processed. Visual and metallographic evaluation of the individual samples was processed after every week of exposition to the salt spray environment. The goal of this experiment was to record the initial impulse of galvanic corrosion which consists in corrosion degradation in the area of welded joint. The white dwarfs within 25 pc of the Sun: Kinematics and spectroscopic subtypes.

We present the fractional distribution of spectroscopic subtypes, range and distribution of surface temperatures, and kinematical properties of the white dwarfs WDs within 25 pc of the Sun. There is no convincing evidence of halo WDs in the total 25 pc sample of WDs. There is also little to suggest the presence of genuine thick disk subcomponent members within 25 pc. It appears that the entire 25 pc sample likely belongs to the thin disk. We also find no significant kinematic differences with respect to spectroscopic subtypes. The total DA to non-DA ratio of the 25 pc sample is 1.

We compare this ratio with the results of other studies. If this interpretation is correct, then it suggests the possibility that a similar percentage have planets, asteroid-like bodies, or debris disks orbiting them. Mindful of small number statistics, we speculate on its possible evolutionary significance.

We derive approximate formation rates of DB and DQ degenerates and present a preliminary test of the evolutionary scenario that all cooling DB stars become DQ WDs via helium convective dredge-up with the diffusion tail of carbon extending upward from their cores. Boule gene expression underpins the meiotic arrest in spermatogenesis in male rainbow trout Oncorhynchus mykiss exposed to DEHP and butachlor.

Boule, the ancestor of the DAZ Deleted in AZoospermia gene family, in most organisms is mainly involved in male meiosis. The results showed that plasma testosterone T concentrations were significantly lower in fish exposed to either DEHP or butachlor compared to the control fish P0. Histologically, testes of male trout in the control groups were well differentiated and filled with large numbers of cystic structures containing spermatozoa.

In contrast, the testes of male trout contained mostly spermatocytes with few spermatozoa in both treated group, suggesting that DEHP and butachlor may inhibit the progression of meiosis. Also, boule gene expression was significantly lower in the testes of male trout affected by DEHP and butachlor in comparison with their control groups Ptrout.

In addition, these results confirmed that boule can be considered as a predictive marker to assess meiotic efficiency. Unique signatures of natural background radiation on human Y chromosomes from Kerala, India. Full Text Available The most frequently observed major consequences of ionizing radiation are chromosomal lesions and cancers, although the entire genome may be affected.

Owing to its haploid status and absence of recombination, the human Y chromosome is an ideal candidate to be assessed for possible genetic alterations induced by ionizing radiation. We studied the human Y chromosome in males from the South Indian state of Kerala, where the level of natural background radiation NBR is ten-fold higher than the worldwide average, and that from unexposed males as control. The autosomal homologues of Y-linked CDY genes largely remained unaffected. Multiple polymorphic copies of the Y-linked genes showing single Y-specific signals suggested their tandem duplication.

Some exposed males showed unilocus duplication of DAZ genes resulting in six copies. All these alterations were detected in blood samples but not in the germline sperm samples. Exposure to high levels of NBR correlated with several interstitial polymorphisms of the human Y chromosome. CNPs and enhanced transcription of the SRY gene after duplication are envisaged to compensate for the loss of Y chromosome in some cells.

The aforesaid changes, confined to peripheral blood lymphocytes, suggest a possible innate mechanism protecting the germline DNA from the NBR. Genome analysis of a larger population focusing on greater numbers of genes may provide new insights into the mechanisms and risks of the resultant genetic damages.

We ask the following question: Further, the Tribunal is more willing to decide cases against the executive in areas that most pervade its docket, specifically in the areas of pensions and employment.

These findings add to the comparative and American judicial politics literature by showing that high courts, even relatively weak ones, follow politics, but that case subject area and prevalence may temper this tendency.

Para este tipo de casos, buscamos contestar la siguiente pregunta: Participants' perception of pharmaceutical clinical research: To assess the perception that trial participants cases and nonparticipants controls of pharmaceutical clinical trials have about pharmaceutical clinical research, we surveyed participants with one of four chronic diseases from 12 research sites throughout Mexico.

Participation in clinical trials positively influences the perception of pharmaceutical clinical research. We also found a sense of trust in their physicians to deal with adverse events, and the perception that clinical research is a benefit to their health, rather than a risk. Full Text Available This research explores certain suggested ways of reading recent Chilean narratives, focusing particularly on a corpus of works by four authors: The reader is drawn into the work by following the signs given in it, shifting from a critical to emotional reading by updating the stories through a close link between writer, the work and the reader.

Thus the works are always read in a complicit way, but from different viewpoints and on different levels. Taking these nuances into account we aim to revise three ways of complicit reading: Full Text Available The study of Alejandro de Humboldt's transit through Spain and particularly Madrid, has been one of the forgotten aspects of his historiography.

The reasons that would explain the approval by king Charles IV of his trip, involving the minister Mariano de Urquijo and the embassador of Sajonia, baron of Forell, are not sufficiently documented due to the scarce data that Humboldt himself offered in his work and to the absence of any other supporting documents. This work studies the preparation of his American trip and its approval by the Spanish court.

Furthermore, it analyses his relationships with the Spanish scientific community in Madrid and the profile of the team that supported him to achieve his targets. Tuberculosis y escritura, las dos muertes de El Doctor Centeno. In the Madrid of , Miquis is dying of tuberculosis, the same illness that romanticism had elevated to mythic proportions. At the same time, this character strives to renew the drama of his time by writing and offering to the brand new middle class a historical play of unmistakable romantic leanings, which is as anachronistic and moribund as he is.

Ablation and optical third-order nonlinearities in Ag nanoparticles. The optical damage associated with high intensity laser excitation of silver nanoparticles NPs was studied. In order to investigate the mechanisms of optical nonlinearity of a nanocomposite and their relation with its ablation threshold, a high-purity silica sample implanted with Ag ions was exposed to different nanosecond and picosecond laser irradiations.

The magnitude and sign of picosecond refractive and absorptive nonlinearities were measured near and far from the surface plasmon resonance SPR of the Ag NPs with a self-diffraction technique. Saturable optical absorption and electronic polarization related to self-focusing were identified. Linear absorption is the main process involved in nanosecond laser ablation, but nonlinearities are important for ultrashort picosecond pulses when the absorptive process become significantly dependent on the irradiance.

We estimated that near the resonance, picosecond intraband transitions allow an expanded distribution of energy among the NPs, in comparison to the energy distribution resulting in a case of far from resonance, when the most important absorption takes place in silica. We measured important differences in the ablation threshold and we estimated that the high selectiveness of the SPR of Ag NPs as well as their corresponding optical nonlinearities can be strongly significant for laser.

CIQYP blames the poor performance on worldwide over-supply and falling prices, which have curbed exports, and low tariffs, which have spurred imports. It is calling for higher import tariffs and export incentives. The talks will also focus on a possible bond issue that would support companies willing to restructure and modernize operations.

The main factor hindering competitiveness is what CIQYP president Alejandro Achaval calls Argentinean cost, including high energy costs, high provincial and federal taxes, and high financing charges. Picturing the world—cinematic globalization in the deserts of Babel. Full Text Available Globalization remains a challenge for the art of cinema. No art form is more suited to the task of showing clashes between cultures and the internal conflicts of a society, but as films are both narratively and physically dependent on locations—even if these can be multiple and dispersed throughout the world—and because of the logistics and the finances required for the production of film, cinema has almost always been placed in a national or regional framework.

Reflecting the totality and networked nature of the globalized world seems more readily attainable for more conceptual forms of art. Drawing on theories on the visual nature of globalization by Arjun Appadurai, Martin Heidegger, and W. Mitchell, this article thus argues for a different conception of cinematic globalization rooted in the history of cinema rather than in theories of globalization. The following combination of characters distinguishes it from all other serranids: Pectoral fins orange; pelvic and anal fins whitish.

Industrial and Aesthetic Dynamics. Full Text Available This article studies the industrial and aesthetic dynamics of transnational film remakes. These cases operate as examples of adaptation processes in the Spanish context as well as tokens of remake fluxes beyond Hollywood. Attention to these films allows us to consider the existence of a potential transnational model of producing film remakes, while attending to the complex network of agents at play in buying and selling remake rights.

The therapeutical effectiveness of gestrinone in endometriosis treatment, as well as its long term side effects, were evaluated. Thirty women with laparoscopically confirmed endometriosis, were studied. Laparoscopy was performed before treatment, and clinical response was determined by second laparoscopy after 6 months. The pregnancy rate, frequency of side effects and recurrence of symptoms were determined.

Median total endometriosis scores and symptoms decreased significantly after treatment. Four pregnancies were observed after treatment. The principal side effects were: However, the side effects disappeared after one year of clinical survey. The results indicate that gestrinone is effective in the treatment of pelvic endometriosis. In despite of a clear benefic effect on stage of the disease and symptoms; the use of gestrinone should weigh the risk-benefit cost versus metabolic side effects of treatment.

La resistencia a las innovaciones. Effects of eprosartan on target organ protection. Hypertension is the most important cardiovascular risk factor for stroke. Blood pressure reduction by antihypertensive treatment is clearly efficacious in the prevention of stroke both primary and secondary, although no clear differences have yet been observed between antihypertensive drug classes.

However, a recent study reported the clear superiority of the angiotensin-receptor blocker eprosartan over the calcium channel blocker nitrendipine in cardiovascular protection of hypertensive patients with a previous stroke. Comparative studies using angiotensin-receptor blockers have also suggested the superiority of this class of drugs on primary stroke prevention. This effect may be linked to their beneficial actions on left ventricular hypertrophy, atrial enlargement, and supraventricular arrhythmias, endothelial dysfunction, inflammation, and remodelling, as well as a direct neuroprotective effect mediated through the stimulation of the angiotensin II type-2 receptor.

In addition, a sympathoinhibition observed with the renin—angiotensin system blockers and particularly demonstrated with eprosartan, may help to explain the better cardiovascular and cerebrovascular protection in comparison with the calcium antagonist nitrendipine. Rejuvenation was a chapter of critical importance for the worldwide development of endocrinology in the s. This work explores the acceptance of these techniques in Chile.

Pre-travel advice concerning vector-borne diseases received by travelers prior to visiting Cuzco, Peru. Peru is an increasingly popular tourist destination that poses a risk to travelers due to endemic vector-borne diseases VBDs.

The objective of our study was to determine which factors are associated with receiving pre-travel advice PTA for VBDs among travelers visiting Cuzco, Peru. A cross-sectional secondary analysis based on data from a survey among travelers departing Cuzco at Alejandro Velazco Astete International Airport during the period January-March was conducted. From the travelers included in the original study, were included in secondary data analysis. Of these participants, Receiving information on VBDs was associated with visiting areas endemic to yellow fever and dengue fever in Peru.

The only disease travelers received specific recommendations for before visiting an endemic area for was yellow fever. Only 1 in 30 tourists received information on VBD prevention; few of those who traveled to an endemic area were warned about specific risks for infectious diseases prior to their trip. These important findings show that most tourists who travel to Peru do not receive PTA for the prevention of infectious and VBD, which can affect not only the travelers but their countries of origin as well.

This meeting provided an opportunity to assess conceptual and methodological progress, to present ever more sophisticated insights into frugivory in animals and dispersal patterns in plants, and to report the advances made in examining the mechanisms and consequences of seed dispersal for plants and frugivores.

Data for decision making: During the influenza A H1N1 pandemic, Argentina's Hospital Nacional Profesor Alejandro Posadas, a referral center in the capital province of Buenos Aires, treated a large urban patient population. Beginning in April, after severe influenza had been reported in North America but before any suspected cases of H1N1 had been reported in Argentina, the authors formed a pandemic planning committee to direct our hospital's response.

An important strategy of the management team was to create a single daily monitoring tool that could integrate multiple information sources. We describe our pandemic planning strategy so that it may serve as a template for other hospitals. We describe our integrated data management system and the indicators it measured. We also describe the iterative process used to develop these tools and the current versions we use in surveillance for possible new waves of pandemic influenza.

We present 3 examples of strategic decision making applied to data from our integrated information system. Daily pandemic surveillance data motivated the planning committee to reallocate hospital resources to care for patients during the peak pandemic period.

This report illustrates the importance of pandemic planning and advanced integrated information tools for management of a health care facility during a pandemic. Most patients who experience gastric volvulus present with mild or intermittent gastric obstructive symptoms. However, severe acute gastric volvulus can result in complete gastric outlet obstruction and ischemia.

Consequently, acute gastric volvulus warrants immediate evaluation and management. The goals of management are to relieve the obstruction and prevent recurrent volvulus. Techniques to manage gastric volvulus depend on patient characteristics and the presence of gastric ischemia.

In the absence of gastric ischemia, gastric volvulus can be managed with anterior abdominal wall gastropexy or paraesophageal hernia repair. If gastric ischemia is present, operative resection of the affected portion of the stomach is indicated. When operative management is indicated, many patients with gastric volvulus can be managed with minimally invasive laparoscopic, endoscopic, or laparoendoscopic techniques.

El motivo de la vuelta a casa en tres novelas chilenas recientes. This article aims at clarifying the ways in which the memories of the Chilean dictatorship have changed in postdictatorial narrative. We will see how some of the most contemporary writers dissociate themselves from an anti-nostalgic position, characteristic of the narrative of the nineties.

The distinction made by Svetlana Boym in The future of Nostalgia, between a restorative and a reflective form of nostalgia, leads us to consider these narratives to be of the second type.

However, while the first postdictatorial novels stress on melancholia and the impossibility of nation and home, in the more contemporary ones we can find an emphasis in the nostalgic search for these concepts. What is an attractive body? Using an interactive 3D program to create the ideal body for you and your partner. Full Text Available What is the ideal body size and shape that we want for ourselves and our partners? What are the important physical features in this ideal? And do both genders agree on what is an attractive body?

To answer these questions we used a 3D interactive software system which allows our participants to produce a photorealistic, virtual male or female body. Forty female and forty male heterosexual Caucasian observers females mean age In this programme the shape and size of a 3D body can be altered along 94 independent dimensions, allowing each participant to create the exact size and shape of the body they want. The volume and thus the weight assuming a standard density and the circumference of the bust, waist and hips of these 3D models can then be measured.

The results suggest a consistent preference for an ideal male and female body size and shape across both genders. The results also suggest that both BMI and torso shape are important components for the creation of the ideal body. Genetic integrity of the human Y chromosome exposed to groundwater arsenic. Full Text Available Abstract Background Arsenic is a known human carcinogen reported to cause chromosomal deletions and genetic anomalies in cultured cells.

The vast human population inhabiting the Ganges delta in West Bengal, India and Bangladesh is exposed to critical levels of arsenic present in the groundwater. The genetic and physiological mechanism of arsenic toxicity in the human body is yet to be fully established. In addition, lack of animal models has made work on this line even more challenging. Isolation of genomic DNA and preparation of metaphase chromosomes was done using standard protocols. End point PCR was performed for established sequence tagged sites to ascertain the status of recombination events.

Single nucleotide variants of candidate genes and amplicons were carried out using appropriate restriction enzymes. Also, possible chromosomal reorganization of DYZ1 repeat arrays was analyzed. Barring a few microdeletions, no major changes were detected in blood DNA samples. SNV analysis showed a difference in some alleles. Conclusions Our Y chromosome analysis suggests that the same is protected from the effects of arsenic by some unknown mechanisms maintaining its structural and functional.
