Dry-Cured Lacón

Dry-cured “lacón” is a traditional dried and ripened meat product made in the NW of Spain (autonomous communities of Galicia, Asturias, and NW of Castilla y León) from the fore leg of the pig cut at the shoulder blade-humerus joint, following a manufacturing process very similar to that used in the manufacture of dry-cured hams. Raw pieces are firstly dry-salted and then dried and ripened for variable times under appropriate environmental conditions. Depending on the degree of ripening, the final product can be consumed both raw or cooked after a desalting process. According to the aims of the book in which it is included, in this chapter the manufacture process of the dry-cured “lacón” is described in depth also providing very brief information on the biochemical and microbiological characteristics of the final product.

Inhibitory effects of beta-amyloid on the nicotinic receptors which stimulate glutamate release in rat hippocampus: the glial contribution

We investigated on the neuronal nicotinic acetylcholine receptor subtypes involved in the cholinergic control of in vivo hippocampal glutamate (GLU), aspartate (ASP) and inhibitory γ-aminobutyric acid (GABA) overflow. We also investigated on the possible contribution of nicotinic acetylcholine receptors subtypes present on astrocytes in the regulation of the three neurotransmitter amino acids overflow using hippocampal gliosomes and on the effects of beta-amyloid (Aβ) 1–40 on the nicotinic control of amino acid neurotransmitter release. Nicotine was able to enhance the in vivo overflow of the three amino acids being more potent in stimulating GLU overflow. The α7 selective agonist PHA543613 induced an overflow very similar to that of nicotine. The α4β2 selective agonist 5IA85380 was significantly less potent in inducing GLU overflow while the overflow of ASP and GABA were almost inconsistent. Aβ1–40 inhibited the neurotransmitter overflow stimulated by PHA543613 but not the one evoked by 5IA85380. In hippocampal gliosomes nicotine elicited selectively GLU overflow which was also evoked by 5IA85380 and by the α7 selective agonist choline. Nicotine- and choline-induced glutamate overflow in gliosomes was inhibited by Aα1–40. In conclusion nicotine administration in vivo elicits hippocampal GLU release mostly through α7 nicotinic acetylcholine receptors likely present both on neurons and astrocytes. Aβ inhibitory effect on the nicotinic-control of GLU release seems to depend primarily to the inhibition of α7 nicotinic acetylcholine receptors functional responses.

Multiproxy record for the last 4500 years from Lake Shkodra (Albania/Montenegro)

A multi-proxy record is presented for approximately the last 4500 cal a BP from Lake Shkodra, Albania/ Montenegro. Lithological analyses, C/N ratio and d 13 C of the organic and inorganic carbon component suggest that organic matter and bulk carbonate are predominantly authigenic. The d 18 O record of bulk carbonate indicates the presence of two prominent wet periods: one at ca. 4300 cal a BP and one at ca. 2500-2000 cal a BP. The latter phase is also found in southern Spain and Central Italy, and represents a prominent event in the western and central Mediterranean. In the last 2000 years, four relatively wet intervals occurred between ca. 1800 and 1500 cal a BP (150-450 AD), 1350-1250 (600-700 AD), 1100-800 (850-1150 AD), and at ca. 90 cal a BP (1860 AD). Between ca. 4100 and 2500 cal a BP d 18 O values are relatively high, with three prominent peaks indicating drier conditions at ca. 4100-4000 cal a BP, ca. 3500 and at ca. 3300 cal a BP. Four additional drier events are identified at 1850 (ca. 100 AD), 1400 (ca. 550 AD), 1150 (800 AD) and ca.750 cal a BP (1200 AD). The pollen record does not show changes in accordance with these episodes owing to the poor sensitivity of vegetation in this area, which is dominated by an orographic rainfall effect and where changes in altitudinal vegetation belts do not affect the pollen rain in the lake catchment. However, since ca. 900 cal a BP a significant decrease in the percentage arboreal pollen and in pollen concentrations suggest major deforestation produced by human activities.

METHOD AND ROBOT MILKING DEVICE FOR MILKING A DAIRY ANIMAL

A robot milking device (1) comprises a milking site (3), an animal identification device (7), robot milking means (5), a feeding device (6) for providing feed to said dairy animal during said milking based on a feed allowance, and a controller (10) for the robot milking system and for updating the feed allowance. The method comprises: selecting a future time period, determining a free capacity C of the robot milking system, determining a sub-group of the dairy animals for which the controller may continue to provide feed after said milking, milking and feeding the dairy animals which visit the milking system, and additionally feeding a dairy animal from the sub-group depending on the determined free capacity C, if said dairy animal still has a feed allowance after milking. By not additionally feeding the selected dairy animals in all cases but depending on the free capacity, additional feed is given only if the robot does not immediately have to milk a following dairy animal, which reduces milking capacity less.

A Health Economic Evaluation of Stroke Prevention in Atrial Fibrillation: Guideline Adherence Versus the Observed Treatment Strategy Prior to 2012 in Denmark

In 2012 the European Society of Cardiology (ESC) published new guidelines on pharmacological stroke prophylaxis in non-valvular atrial fibrillation (AF). The health economics of adhering to these guidelines in clinical practice remains to be elucidated.This paper offers a health economic evaluation of two stroke-prophylactic treatment strategies: complete national adherence to the ESC guidelines on stroke prophylaxis in AF versus stroke-prophylactic treatment prior to 2012 in Denmark.A cost-utility analysis was performed to compare two treatment strategies. The first strategy reflected national guideline adherence with the use of non-vitamin K antagonist oral anticoagulants (i.e. dabigatran etexilate), warfarin, and no treatment. The second strategy reflected observed stroke prophylaxis prior to 2012 with the utilization of warfarin, acetylsalicylic acid, and no treatment. A Danish health sector perspective was adopted. A Markov model was designed and populated with information on input parameters from the literature and local cost data reflecting 2014 values. A modeled patient cohort was constructed with a risk profile intended to reflect that of the Danish patient population with AF. The applied outcome was quality-adjusted life-years (QALYs).The incremental cost-effectiveness ratio amounted to <euro>3557 per QALY for the guideline-adherent treatment strategy (GTS) compared with the pre-2012 treatment strategy. This ratio is below a threshold of <euro>25,000 (£20,000) per QALY. Sensitivity analyses revealed that the result was largely robust to changes in input parameters. All analyses found the GTS to be cost effective.Guideline adherence is a cost-effective treatment strategy compared with the strategy employed prior to 2012 for pharmacological stroke prophylaxis in AF.
Personal and familial correlates of bipolar (BP)-I disorder in children with a diagnosis of BP-I disorder with a positive child behavior checklist (CBCL)-severe dysregulation profile: A controlled study

Although the DSM-IV provides explicit criteria for the diagnosis of BP-I disorder, this is a complex diagnosis that requires high levels of clinical expertise. Previous work shows children with a unique profile of the CBCL of high scores (2SD) on the attention problems (AP), aggressive behavior (AGG), and anxious-depressed (AD) (A-A-A) subscales are more likely than other children to meet criteria for BP-I disorder in both epidemiological and clinical samples. However, since not all BP-I disorder children have a positive profile questions remain as to its informativeness, particularly in the absence of an expert diagnostician.Analyses were conducted comparing personal and familial correlates of BP-I disorder in 140 youth with a structured interview and an expert clinician based DSM-IV diagnosis of BP-I disorder with (N=80) and without (N=60) a positive CBCL- Severe Dysregulation profile, and 129 controls of similar age and sex without ADHD or a mood disorder. Subjects were comprehensively assessed with structured diagnostic interviews and wide range of functional measures. We defined the CBCL-severe dysregulation profile as an aggregate cut-off score of ≥ 210 on the A-A-A scales.BP-I probands with and without a positive CBCL-severe dysregulation profile significantly differed from Controls in patterns of psychiatric comorbidity, psychosocial and psychoeducational dysfunction, and cognitive deficits, as well as in their risk for BP-I disorder in first degree relatives.Because the sample was referred and largely Caucasian, findings may not generalize to community samples and other ethnic groups.A positive CBCL-severe dysregulation profile identifies a severe subgroup of BP-I disorder youth.
Prevalence and association between triglyceride level and lifestyle factors among Malay obese class I and II adults

Abstract Objective Hypertriglyceridemia is an independent risk factor for cardiovascular diseases. This study aimed to determine the prevalence and association of triglyceride level and lifestyle factors among Malay obese class I and II adults. Method This is a cross-sectional study of 65 Malay obese class I and class II adults aged 20-62 years (21 male, 44 female) from sub-urban areas of Malaysia. Overnight fasting venous blood samples were obtained to determine the triglyceride level (mmol/L). Subjects were classified into either normal or elevated triglyceride level groups based on the triglyceride level (normal 1.7 mmol/L). Unhealthy lifestyle behaviors, defined as smoking status, hours per day spent on sitting passively and sitting with active motion, and the amount of saturated fat, mono-unsaturated and polyunsaturated fat from dietary intake, were measured from 24-h dietary intake and physical activity recall. We compare the variables of unhealthy lifestyle behaviors between subjects with normal and elevated triglyceride level using independent samples t-test. Results Among 65 obese class I and II adults, 16 subjects (24.6%) were found to have elevated triglyceride levels (mean ± standard deviation of body mass index 31.89 ± 3.29 kg/m2). There are significant differences between subjects having normal and elevated triglyceride level with gender, marital status, the number of children, smoking status, weight and monounsaturated fat intake (all P-values Conclusions The findings of this study highlighted elevated triglyceride level in obese adults might be influenced by unhealthy lifestyle behaviors. We suggest that lifestyle modification intervention is appropriate to prevent cardiovascular disease among Malay obese class I and II adults.
Ver más allá del texto: análisis material de los Pasquines Sediciosos de la Revolución de los Sastres en Bahía en el siglo XVIII

En 1798 aparecieron en la capital bahiana manuscritos que llamaban a la población a una «revolución» que implantaría la «República Bahiense». El gobernador ordenó iniciar un proceso durante el cual dos hombres fueron arrestados y sus bienes incautados por sospecharse que eran autores de «papeles sediciosos». Papeles, plumas, tintas y documentos de los investigados fueron analizados y comparados por expertos, para cursar una acusación contra Luís Gonzaga das Virgens. Este estudio se propone arrojar luz sobre las dificultades a las que enfrentan los investigadores de fuentes primarias: la falta de conocimientos básicos sobre el material documental y sobre Diplomática y Paleografía por parte de los que trabajan o investigan en los archivos es una de las razones de los errores. A partir del caso de los pasquines sediciosos de la Revolución de los Sastres, buscamos mostrar cómo el sistema de clasificación de documentos y la falta de acceso físico a los originales pueden inducir la interpretación del investigador.
Molecular Crystals: A Test System for Weak Bonding

Molecular crystals are classified by the leading order power law for the long-range interaction among the molecular constituents and additionally by hydrogen bonds. It is found that for molecular crystals formally dominated by ionic, electrostatic dipole−dipole or quadrupole−quadrupole, and even van der Waals interactions, reasonably accurate predictions of crystal structure can be made. The PBE density functional approximation leads to a systematic overestimation of lattice parameters of type length reaching 7% on average for the van der Waals class. This is consistent with the findings of earlier investigations. The PBEsol functional has a signed mean deviation of <1% for normal crystals and molecular crystals up to the dipole class. For the highest class the mean deviation remains below 2%. The scatter around the mean deviation reaches ≈3% rms. The basic Kohn−Sham local density approximation remains below 2% signed mean deviation across all classes. The scatter around the mean deviation for molecular c...
The next 100 optimizing compilers

Ideally, advances in hardware design would directly translate to performance or energy improvements in software. In reality, this involves a manual process of tuning a sophisticated production compiler or hardware-specific rewriting of code. This process is challenging even for the few experts who possess the required range of skills.  Moreover, any errors introduced in this process affect the entire software stack and likely compromise its reliability and security.

The aim of this project is to enable software to take full advantage of the capabilities of emerging microprocessor designs without modifying the compiler. 

Towards this end, we propose a new approach to code generation and optimization.  Our approach uses constraint solving in a novel way to generate efficient code for modern architectures and guarantee that the generated code correctly implements the source code.

Unlike existing superoptimization and synthesis methods, our approach shifts the entire search problem into the solver.  Tight integration with the solver provides a way to reuse reasoning steps and guide the solver using domain specific
information about the input program and the target architecture.  

This approach paves the way to employing recent advances in SMT solvers and has the potential to advance SMT solvers
further by providing a new category of challenging benchmarks that come from an industrial application domain.

I expect this project to revolutionize the way compilers perform hardware-specific optimizations.  It will eliminate an entire class of software errors and unrealized potential performance gains caused by modern optimizing compilers.  It will also aid hardware designers by providing greater flexibility for design explorations and faster deployment of new hardware.  Thus, this project will lead to significant improvement in performance and stability of software systems, as well as a fundamental impact on several scientific fields.
