Actos procesales y firma electrónica
Authors: Mira Ros Corazón
Published: July 2020

El fenómeno de la metamorfosis de la Administración Pública en una administración electrónica ha alcanzado también (como no podía ser de otro modo) a la Administración de Justicia, transformando sustancialmente, sobre todo, la organización y el funcionamiento de la oficina judicial, con la generalización de las comunicaciones electrónicas y de los documentos judiciales electrónicos y, al mismo tiempo, afectando a múltiples aspectos del proceso. Surge así una forma renovada de expresión de los actos procesales, la que resulta de su realización por medios electrónicos, que esconde la exigencia de un nuevo formalismo procesal, de carácter técnico, relativo a la firma digital y a los mecanismos que van a permitir en el proceso asegurar la autenticidad e integridad de las actuaciones electrónicas y el cumplimiento de los requisitos legalmente establecidos.

Aspectos sociolaborales de la ley orgánica 1/2.004 de medidas de protección integral contra la violencia de género
Authors: Trujillo Guiote Francisca
Published: July 2020

Este artículo analiza los cambios introducidos en la legislación laboral y de funcionarios públicos por la Ley Orgánica de Medidas de Protección Integral contra la Violencia de Género. Se estudian las modificaciones introducidas al Estatuto de los Trabajadores y el Programa de Inserción Socio-Laboral para Mujeres Víctimas de Violencia de Género, detallando las medidas encaminadas a la inserción socio-laboral de estas víctimas; tanto el itinerario a seguir, como las medidas de preformación y de formación laboral. Así mismo, se analizan los cambios en el funcionariado. Se consideran, por un lado, los nuevos derechos laborales que se reconocen a las víctimas y, por otro, las ayudas económicas que se establecen para ellas y los incentivos a que tienen derecho las empresas que las contraten. Todo ello con la finalidad de dar una independencia económica a la víctima que le permita desvincularse de su agresor.

Ruta jacobea, jus commune y jus europeum
Authors: García Cantero Gabriel
Published: July 2020

El Estatuto medieval del Peregrino a Santiago vino a ser una manifestación del «Ius commune» que ha llegado hasta el siglo XXI. Representa, en cierto modo, un anticipo del actual Derecho comunitario (ciudadanía europea, protección del usuario de las vías de comunicación, asistencia hospitalaria internacional etc). Se han ampliado y diversificado las motivaciones subjetivas de los peregrinos, pero subsisten sus motivaciones religiosas en sentido amplio. Hoy en día, el Camino de Santiago es factor de europeización y prueba evidente de las raíces cristianas de Europa.

Published: July 2020

Los principios del proceso han sido concebidos como «criterios», «ideas» o «reglas» que informan el ordenamiento procesal de un determinado país, de dónde se infiere que su estudio nos resultará útil, de un lado, para conocer, nuestro propio sistema procesal, así como para examinar, de otro, la adecuación de nuestros procesos a las exigencias de la Constitución, en aquellos supuestos en que dichos principios hubieren sido, al propio tiempo, constitucionalizados.The beginning of the process has been conceived as »criteria », »ideas» or »rules» that inform the procedural classification of a certain country, wherefrom there is inferred that his study us will turn out to be useful, of a side, to know, our own procedural system, as well as to examine, of other one, the adequacy of our processes to the requirements of the Constitution, in those suppositions in which the above mentioned beginning will have been, to the own time, constitutionalized.

Evolución histórica de la depositio in aedem en Roma como precedente de la consignación actual (en torno a uno de los actos considerados de jurisdicción voluntaria)
Authors: Martínez de Morentin Llamas Mª Lourdes
Published: July 2020

En el presente trabajo se estudia la consignatio en algunos de los supuestos previstos en las fuentes. En primer lugar, en el caso del rechazo por parte del acreedor del cumplimiento de la obligatio que intenta llevar a cabo el deudor, por lo que se hace necesario algún medio de prueba del cumplimiento de las obligaciones, entre los que destaca, en época tardía, el documento, y la figura de los tabelliones. A continuación en caso de minoría de edad del acreedor, donde se plantea la cuestión de si se desliga de su obligación de solvere el que consigna en vez de pagar al menor o a su tutor. Por último, el supuesto de ausencia del acreedor, desconocimiento de su persona, o por defecto en la autorización al representante del acreedor, finalizando con unas primeras conclusiones donde se pretende demostrar que en todos los casos, nos hallamos dentro de la denominada jurisdicción voluntaria, denominación hallada en un fragmento de Marciano contenido en el Digesto, y que ha sido estudiado en profundidad por el profesor D. Antonio Fernández de Buján.In this piece of work the consignatio is treated in some of the foreseen cases of the sources. Firstly, in case of creditor rejection on the obligatio accomplishment that is trying to carry out the debtor, some probes for the accomplishment of the obligations are necessary, specially, the document, and the tabelliones figure. Then in case of the creditor is under age, it is questioned whether the one who orders is untied of his obligation of solvere instead of paying the creditor under age or his/her tutor. Lastly, the consignatio for the creditor absence, ignorance, or defect in the authorization of the creditor representative, and ending with the first conclusions where it is for demonstrating that all of the cases are under the entitled volunteer jurisdiction, title found in one of the Marciano fragment at Digesto, deeply studied by professor A. F. de Buján.
Bases conceptuales de los derechos ambientales y transgeneracionales
Authors: Núñez Rivero Cayetano , Luzardo Nava Alexander
Published: July 2020

Los Derechos ambientales y transgeneracionales emergieron con fuerza en el último tercio del siglo XX, procediéndose en un breve periodo de tiempo a su constitucionalización y proclamación mediante Tratados y Declaraciones internacionales. Sin embargo, tal auge no ha ido acompañado de una definición conceptual de los términos utilizados para su descripción, aspecto especialmente agravado en el idioma castellano, como consecuencia de la casi exclusiva utilización de la lengua inglesa en los foros internacionales de referencia, lo que ha posibilitado una cierta confusión y falta de homogeneidad, en la descripción de términos y conceptos, muchos de los cuáles no han sido todavía admitidos por la Real Academia de la Lengua. En el presente trabajo se intenta proceder a una definición conceptual de los mismos.Environmental Rights and transgenerational emerged strongly in the last third of the twentieth century, proceeding in a short period of time to proclaim a constitution and by international treaties and declarations. However, this boom has not been accompanied by a conceptual definition of the terms used to describe it, which is particularly exacerbated in the Castilian language, as a result of the almost exclusive use of English in international reference, which has enabled some confusion and inconsistency in the description of terms and concepts, many of them have not yet been accepted by the Real Academia de la Lengua. this assay tries to proceed with a conceptual definition of them.

Honduras : la impunidad de un golpe de estado
Authors: Estaún Eva
Published: July 2020

El 28 de junio del año 2009 tras un largo periodo de desacuerdos políticos, Honduras vivió un golpe de Estado cuyas consecuencias principales fueron el posicionamiento de toda la comunidad internacional contra la actitud de los golpistas y la expulsión de Honduras de la OEA. El 29 de noviembre del mismo año, tal y como estaba previsto antes del golpe de Estado se celebraron elecciones presidenciales que dieron la victoria a Porfirio Lobo, candidato de la oposición. A pesar del empeño de la OEA en no reconocer el resultado electoral por considerar que las elecciones se había celebrado en una situación irregular, a pesar de la oposición y condena de la mayor parte de los países del continente, a pesar de la intención de la comunidad internacional de revertir la situación, Zelaya no pudo volver al cargo para el que había resultado electoralmente elegido. Desde entonces Honduras ha dejado de ser portada en los medios de comunicación. Sin embargo la crisis política que hizo temer por la seguridad de la región no ha sido resuelta, y a día de hoy todavía hay países del continente que no han reconocido la legitimidad del nuevo Presidente, Porfirio Lobo, todavía no ha conseguido volver a la OEA.El objetivo de este artículo es describir como se desarrollaron los acontecimientos entre el 28 de junio del 2009 y el 29 de noviembre. Y explicar porque el golpe de estado se ha legitimado, particularizando la situación que se está viviendo en Honduras a día de hoy.On 28th June 2009, after a long period of political unrest, Honduras witnessed a coup d’état. Its main consequence was the strong negative reaction of the entire international community against the unlawful events in the country followed the expulsion of Honduras from the OAS. On 29th November the same year, previously scheduled presidential elections were held. They were won by the opposition candidate, Porfirio Lobo. In spite of various factors, among which the non-recognition of the election results by OAS on a ground that the elections had lacked a level playing field, the strong standpoint of American states opposing the events in Honduras and the commitment of the international community to restore the status quo ante, the legally elected incumbent (Zelaya) was unable to resume his presidency. Honduras has since lost its share in the media coverage, but the political crisis threatening the safety of the region has not been resolved and today Honduras remains still outside the regional community framework. Most of the states of the continent did not recognize the legitimacy of coming to power of the new President, Porfirio Lobo, and the country has yet a long way to go in order to return to the OAS .The aim of this paper is to describe how events unfolded between 28th June 2009 and 29th November and to explain the patterns of legitimizing the coup given the specific situation in today’s Honduras.
Concepto de costas procesales en derecho romano
Authors: Agudo Ruiz Alfonso
Published: July 2020

Las fuentes jurídicas romanas no contienen ninguna definición de gastos y costas procesales. Sin embargo, del análisis terminológico se puede concluir la clara distinción de ambos conceptos. Las costas vienen representadas por los términos impensae, expensae, impendia, dispendia y sportulae; los gastos, por el término sumptus. Las costas procesales pueden ser definidas como el conjunto de desembolsos dinerarios exigidos por la ley, realizados dentro de un proceso concreto que es causa y necesidad, cuyo pago recae sobre los litigantes, pudiendo recuperarlos de quien resulta condenado en costas.The Roman juridical sources don’t contain any definition about the legal costs and expenses. However, we can deduce a clear definition of both concepts through the terminological analysis. The costs are represented by the concepts impensae, expensae, impendia, dispendia and sportulae; the expenses by the concept sumptus. The legal costs could be defined as the payment established by the laws in a determined procedure, which is necessary to carry out it. The litigants have to pay these costs, but they can recovered them from those ordered to pay costs.

Esta crisis financiera y de confianza que se está produciendo en un mundo globalizado y como consecuencia más interdependiente, que aboca a los Estados a financiar y volver a reflotar a quienes nos sumergieron en ella, no puede ni debe ser la coartada para desmantelar el Estado de Bienestar de los países occidentales ni seguir produciendo la muerte, el hambre y la miseria de millones de personas, del mismo modo, la inacción de las grandes instituciones mundiales y agentes políticos está abocando a que esta crisis se alargue en el tiempo y haga renacer reivindicaciones que en algunos casos pueden convertirse en violentas, situación que hasta el momento no se está produciendo.This financial and reliable crisis that there are producing in a globalized world and like a interdependent consequence, which brought about the States to revive and finance again who immersed us in it, it can’t and mustn’t be the reason to dismantle the Welfare State of the occidental countries, and no longer to produce death, hunger and misery of million people. In the same way the non actions of the large global institutions and political agents are helping that this crisis is prolonged in the time and this makes claims to be born which in some cases may be violent, but this is a situation that so far there hasn’t been happened.

Seleção de espécies tolerantes para a fitorremediação de solo contaminado com imazapic
Authors: Vasconcelo Simonny Montthiel Araújo , Jakelaitis Adriano , Costa Mailon Lucas Meurer , Oliveira Romário Rodrigues Cunha de , Santos Vanessa Silva
Published: July 2020

O imazapic por apresentar longo efeito residual no solo pode ocasionar intoxicação visual em culturas sensíveis semeadas em rotação, além de representar riscos ecotoxicológicos em ambientes aquáticos. Diante disso, a fitorremediação é uma proposta inovadora como método alternativo para a remoção de poluentes orgânicos, sendo o sucesso da técnica dependente da seleção criteriosa de plantas com características favoráveis. O objetivo do estudo foi de identificar espécies de plantas tolerantes ao imazapic para potencial uso em programas de fitorremediação. Foram conduzidos oito experimentos em casa de vegetação climatizada com as espécies, Panicum maximum, Crotalaria juncea, Stylosanthes spp., Cajanus cajan, Dolichos lablab, Pennisetum glaucum, Mucuna aterrima, Raphanus sativus e cinco doses de imazapic (0; 58,33; 87,5; 175 e 350 g ha-1). Os tratamentos foram delineados em blocos ao acaso com quatro repetições. Aos 30 e 60 dias após a emergência das plantas foram avaliados os sintomas de intoxicação visual, altura e a massa seca das plantas, determinada ao término do experimento. As espécies M. aterrima, C. cajan e D. lablab não apresentaram sintomas visuais de fitointoxicação. M. aterrima foi a que promoveu maior produção de massa seca quando cultivada como testemunha e a exposição ao imazapic pouco afetou essa característica. Nas espécies tolerantes, a redução da altura e massa seca exigiu doses maiores, embora os resultados não tenham sido significativos para D. lablab e C. cajan. Entre essas espécies, M. aterrima se destacou pela alta produção de biomassa, sendo promissora na fitorremediação de sítios com resíduos do imazapic.
Progresso da cercosporiose da beterraba sob diferentes regimes de pulverização
Authors: Marcuzzo Leandro Luiz , Harbs Sheila Chaiana , Kotkoski Bruna , Paulakoski Aline Cristina
Published: July 2020

A cercosporiose da beterraba, causada por Cercospora beticola Sacc. é controlada por meio de pulverizações foliares com fungicidas seguindo um calendário fixo, sem considerar o progresso da doença. Um sistema de previsão pode predizer o progresso da doença e direcionar o regime de pulverizações, reduzindo o número de aplicações e otimizando o manejo da doença. Com o objetivo de avaliar o progresso da cercosporiose sob os diferentes regimes de pulverização foi aplicada a técnica de modelagem estatística conhecida por modelos mistos. Estes modelos não incluem apenas os efeitos fixos, mas também os efeitos aleatórios para cada um dos indivíduos da população em estudo. Nas safras agrícolas de 2018 e 2019, os regimes de pulverização utilizados foram baseados em sistemas com valores de severidade estimada (SE) acumulada de 0,15; 0,25, e 0,35, além dos controles padrões com intervalos de pulverizações de cinco e sete dias. A severidade acumulada da cercosporiose em função do tempo, nos cinco regimes de pulverização, foi calibrada com um modelo Gompertz ajustado pelo modelo misto e o efeito aleatório ajustado à assíntota superior. Como resultado da calibração do modelo, o tratamento com regime de pulverização com SE=0,35 não diferiu dos controles padrões com relação à área abaixo da curva de progresso da doença (AACPD), severidade final e produtividade. Os dados apresentados nesse trabalho demonstram a eficiência do sistema de previsão no manejo da cercosporiose em beterraba, com a vantagem de reduzir o número de pulverizações com fungicidas e o impacto sobre o ambiente.
Ecotoxicity of the isoxaflutole herbicide to soil invertebratesEcotoxicity of isoxaflutole herbicide to soil invertebrates
Authors: Santo Fernanda Benedet de , Ramos Guilherme Alves , Ricardo Filho Altair Maçaneiro , Marchioro Cesar Augusto , Niemeyer Júlia Carina
Published: July 2020

Isoxaflutole (IFT) is a pre-emergence herbicide used to control of a wide range of broadleaf and grass weeds, especially those resistant to other herbicide classes, such as glyphosate and atrazine. Although its herbicidal potential was identified in the early 90’s, IFT is still a new active ingredient in Brazil and little is known about its effects, mainly regarding to ecotoxicity of formulated products to soil macro and mesofauna groups. This study aimed to assess behavioral, acute, and chronical effects (avoidance, lethality, and reproduction) of the commercial product ProvenceTM 750 WG (750 g a.i. L-1 isoxaflutole) on the test organisms Eisenia andrei (earthworms) and Folsomia candida (collembolans) using standardized ISO guidelines. The results showed the avoidance of the earthworm species only at >300 times the predicted field doses, as well as a decrease in reproduction over >150 times the predicted field dose. Neither the avoidance, nor lethality or reproduction response were found for the collembolan species. The laboratory results showed that it is possible to assume that ProvenceTM is not toxic to earthworms and collembolans, even at the highest field dose applied, ensuring the safety of soil communities.

Objetivou-se com esse trabalho verificar a capacidade de hortaliças não convencionais em acumular silício, bem como a resposta destas à adubação silicatada. O experimento foi conduzido em casa de vegetação em 2016. Foram avaliados duas doses de adubação silicatada (0 e 50 mg dm-3 de Si), e nove espécies de hortaliças não convencionais (Maranta arundinacea L., Rumex acetosa L., Amaranthus spinosus L., Amaranthus viridis L., Amaranthus retroflexus L., Amaranthus deflexus L., Amaranthus hybridus L., Stachys byzantina K. Koch e Sonchus oleraceus L.), dispostos em delineamento inteiramente casualizado em esquema fatorial 2 x 9, com quatro repetições. Foram determinadas a massas fresca e seca, assim como o teor de Si em todas as plantas. As espécies avaliadas possuem potencial para acumular silício mediante adubação com o elemento. A aplicação de 50 mg dm-3 de Si proporcionou maior teor de Si nas espécies estudadas. A adubação com Si, de modo geral, não influencia na biomassa dessas plantas.
The Repertoire and Interpretative Dynamics of Shakespeare’s Dramaturgy in the Twentieth-Century Lithuanian Theatre
Authors: Marcinkevičiūtė Ramunė
Published: July 2020

The repertoire and interpretative dynamics of Shakespeare’s dramaturgy in the twentieth-century Lithuanian theatre have shown that despite the fact that the first premiere on a professional theatre stage in Lithuanian took place only in 1924 (Othello), the main European tendencies of the playwright’s directorial narrative (from Romantic rhetoric and retrospectivism to deconstruction or postcolonial practices) were repeated over the course of the century. The author of the article observes that the general turn towards Shakespeare by many Lithuanian theatre artists, not just one director or repertory theatre, reflects and connects various phenomena of major social changes and new beginnings: the creation of an independent state and a professional national theatre in the interwar period; the creation of a more modern theatre and a more relaxed society during the thaw of the 1960s in the wake of the Stalinist regime and its terror; the transformation of the role of theatre in society in the 1990s following the restoration of the country’s independence; the challenges brought about by the new century and the changing generations of artists. This hypothetical parallel between changes in history and in the theatrical discourses distinguishes Shakespeare as a prominent factor of theatre development and puts the Lithuanian professional theatre in the context of the traditions of European Shakespearean theatre repertory choices formed throughout the centuries.
Principles of Japanese Noh and Butoh Theatre in the Solo Performance and the Play “Words in the Sand” by Birutė Mar
Authors: Gudavičiūtė Aušra
Published: July 2020

In this article, the author focuses on the solo performance “Words in the Sand” (Žodžiai smėlyje, based on Samuel Beckett’s play Happy Days, premiere in 1998) by Birutė Mar, one of the most prominent creators of solo performances in Lithuania, with the aim of defining the originality in the interpretation of this representative drama of the absurd, produced by the actor. The creative principles of the Japanese theatre noh and butoh are observed in this performance, which makes it possible to talk about an original intersection of the ideas of Western existentialism and Eastern philosophy and aesthetics. Emphasis is placed on the specific performativity of the solo performer. The author suggests that while creating her personal “holy” theatre (a notion introduced by Peter Brook), Birutė Mar renews the “traditional” metaphysical thinking in Lithuanian theatre, which she combines with original and contemporary ways of artistic expression.
Sun and Sea (Marina). A Trap for Conventions and the Audience
Authors: Jauniškis Vaidas
Published: July 2020

The analysis of the opera-performance Sun and Sea (Marina), the winner of Venice Biennale 2019, shows how the contradictory traditions of opera and performance enrich each other and break numerous canons of the art world. Opera, which at the very birth of the genre was titled the most conventional and unnatural art, earned the top position in the social pyramid amongst the arts. Performance art represented counter-culture due to its naturalness and liveness. In their work, Lapelytė, Grainytė, and Barzdžiukaitė suggest playing with different contexts and different social aspects and questioning traditions of the arts. Opera changes due to a performative turn, interdisciplinarity, and revolutions in the opera world (Wilson and Glass Einstein on the Beach) due to the society of sharing economy, participatory theatre, social networks, and an experiential turn.
Measuring piglet castration pain using linear and non-linear measures of heart rate variability
Authors: Byrd CJ , Radcliffe JS , Craig BA , Eicher SD , Lay DC
Published: July 2020

The purpose of this study was to evaluate whether linear and non-linear measures of heart rate variability (HRV) could be used as indicators of piglet castration pain. Thirty piglets were allocated to 1 of 4 treatments: i) sham castrated HRV (SHRV; n = 8); ii) surgical castrated HRV (CHRV; n = 7); iii) sham castrated blood collection (SBC; n = 7); or iv) surgical castrated blood collection (CBC; n = 8). Piglets in the SHRV and CHRV treatment groups underwent a 1-h HRV and postural behaviour evaluation on day-1, day 0 (castration treatment), day 1 and day 3 of the experimental procedure. Piglets in the SBC and CBC groups underwent blood collection for serum cortisol analysis at -0.5, 1, 2, 3, 24, 48 and 72 h relative to castration treatment. Castrated piglets (CHRV) exhibited greater low to high frequency ratio, lower sample entropy and greater percent determinism compared to SHRV piglets, indicating greater pain-related stress due to the surgical castration procedure. Serum cortisol was greater in CBC pigs at 1 h post-castration compared to SBC piglets. No effect of treatment was found for amount of time spent lying post-castration. In conclusion, surgically castrated pigs exhibited greater pain-related stress than their sham castrated counterparts. Additionally, non-linear HRV measures seem to complement traditional linear HRV measures and may be valuable for assessing pain-related stress in future studies investigating swine welfare.
Effects of housing conditions on behaviour and physiology in the Finnraccoon (Nyctereutes procyonoides ussuriensis)
Authors: Koistinen T , Moisander-Jylha A-M , Korhonen HT
Published: July 2020

The welfare of juvenile Finnraccoons (Nyctereutes procyonoides ussuriensis) was compared between various housing conditions through the measurement of day-time behaviour and physiological variables. For the small control treatment (SC), Finnraccoons were raised in pairs in small
cages; in the large area treatment (LA), in pairs in large cages; in the large control treatment (LC), in groups of four in large cages and in the large enrichment treatment (LE), in groups of four in large cages with access to a nest-box and a large tube, from weaning to pelting time. Study
subjects consisted of a total of 152 Finnraccoons. As autumn progressed, day-time resting increased, especially allohuddling; while active behaviours decreased. Allohuddling was the most common type of resting; apart from in the LE treatment, resting shelters were used effectively alongside
allohuddling. Locomotion was observed more frequently in LA and LC treatments, ie in large cages without shelters. The nest-box roof was preferred to the platform as an elevated location, and the nest-box to the tube as a resting shelter. Agonistic interactions were not observed. Males grew
heavier than females and had heavier organs. No systematic differences in haematological and other physiological parameters were found between the treatments. Catching time was shortest in the SC treatment. The LE treatment compromised animals cleanliness. Based on the intensive positive social
interactions and regular shelter use, group housing and access to resting shelters are recommended for juvenile Finnraccoons.

Tanzanian adult male volunteers were immunized by direct venous inoculation with radiation-attenuated, aseptic, purified, cryopreserved Plasmodium falciparum (Pf) sporozoites (PfSPZ Vaccine) and protective efficacy assessed by homologous controlled human malaria infection (CHMI). Serum immunoglobulin G (IgG) responses were analyzed longitudinally using a Pf protein microarray covering 91% of the proteome, providing first insights into naturally acquired and PfSPZ Vaccine-induced whole parasite antibody profiles in malaria pre-exposed Africans. Immunoreactivity was identified against 2239 functionally diverse Pf proteins, showing a wide breadth of humoral response. Antibody-based immune ‘fingerprints’ in these individuals indicated a strong person-specific immune response at baseline, with little changes in the overall humoral immunoreactivity pattern measured after immunization. The moderate increase in immunogenicity following immunization and the extensive and variable breadth of humoral immune response observed in the volunteers at baseline suggest that pre-exposure reduces vaccine-induced antigen reactivity in unanticipated ways.

The transport of charged molecules across biological membranes faces the dual problem of accommodating charges in a highly hydrophobic environment while maintaining selective substrate translocation. This has been the subject of a particular controversy for the exchange of ammonium across cellular membranes, an essential process in all domains of life. Ammonium transport is mediated by the ubiquitous Amt/Mep/Rh transporters that includes the human Rhesus factors. Here, using a combination of electrophysiology, yeast functional complementation and extended molecular dynamics simulations, we reveal a unique two-lane pathway for electrogenic NH4+ transport in two archetypal members of the family, the transporters AmtB from Escherichia coli and Rh50 from Nitrosomonas europaea. The pathway underpins a mechanism by which charged H+ and neutral NH3 are carried separately across the membrane after NH4+ deprotonation. This mechanism defines a new principle of achieving transport selectivity against competing ions in a biological transport process.

Introducción. Las enfermedades transmitidas por Aedes aegypti son un problema de salud pública. VECTOS es un programa novedoso de integración de estrategias de control de vectores.Objetivo. Evaluar el costo-efectividad del uso del VECTOS en los programas de control rutinario de enfermedades transmitidas por el vector Aedes aegypti en el municipio de San Juan de Girón (Santander).Materiales y métodos. Se evaluó el costo-efectividad del programa empleando un modelo de análisis de decisiones desde la perspectiva de las autoridades locales de salud. Se estudió la integración de las estrategias de control de vectores mediante el programa VECTOS utilizado en el municipio de San Juan de Girón durante el 2016, con el control rutinario llevado a cabo sin VECTOS en el municipio de Floridablanca. Se calculó la razón incremental del costo-efectividad (RICE), usando como medida de efectividad los años de vida ajustados por discapacidad (AVAD).Resultados. El uso del programa VECTOS fue rentable a una tasa de ahorro de USD$660,4 por cada AVAD evitado en comparación con el control de rutina en Floridablanca. El modelo probabilístico indicó que el sistema fue costo-efectivo en el 70 % de las 10.000 iteraciones para un umbral entre 1 y 3 PIB per cápita.Conclusiones. El programa VECTOS fue muy costo-efectivo en el municipio de San Juan de Girón. Su uso puede adoptarse en otros municipios del país donde las enfermedades transmitidas por A. aegypti son endémicas.
Nefropatía full house no lúpica en pediatría: reporte de dos casos
Authors: Guerrero Gustavo Adolfo , Guerrero Luis Francisco , González Tatiana

La nefropatía full house se refiere a la detección simultánea de depósitos de IgA, IgG, IgM, C3 y C1q en la inmunofluorescencia, lo que generalmente indica la presencia de nefritis lúpica. Hay pacientes con este patrón de inmunofluorescencia, pero con serología negativa para autoanticuerpos, por lo que no se les puede diagnosticar un lupus eritematoso sistémico. Este tipo de nefropatía, en la que no se presentan otros criterios para lupus, se denomina nefropatía full house no lúpica.En esta presentación, se describen dos casos: un paciente que ingresó con una glomerulonefritis rápidamente progresiva y una paciente con síndrome nefrótico, ambos con serología negativa para autoanticuerpos, hallazgos en la biopsia renal indicativos de nefritis lúpica de clase IV y un patrón full house en la inmunofluorescencia. La nefropatía full house no lúpica tiene rasgos histológicos similares a los de la nefritis lúpica y, probablemente, sus bases fisiopatológicas son parecidas. Sin embargo, se necesitan estudios prospectivos para conocer los factores de riesgo y el pronóstico renal, y poder hacer sugerencias sobre tratamientos específicos.

Introduction: Essential amino acid α-keto acid analogs are used in the treatment of chronic kidney disease to delay the symptoms of uremia. However, it is unknown whether essential amino acid α-keto acid analogs affect the oxidative stress and the inflammation in acute renal injury such as those produced by ischemia-reperfusion.Objective: To evaluate the effect of essential amino acid α-keto acid analogs on renal ischemia-reperfusion injury in Wistar rats.Materials and methods: Rats were divided into 11 groups (n=6/group): Two groups received physiological saline with or without ischemia-reperfusion injury (45 min/24 h), six groups received essential amino acid α-keto acid analogs (400, 800, or 1,200 mg/kg/24 h/7d) with or without ischemia-reperfusion injury (essential amino acid α-keto acid analogs + ischemia-reperfusion), and two groups received allopurinol (50 mg/kg/24 h/7d) with or without ischemia-reperfusion injury. Biochemical markers included creatinine and blood urea nitrogen (BUN), proinflammatory cytokines (IL-1β, IL-6, and TNF-α), renal damage markers (cystatin C, KIM-1, and NGAL), and markers of oxidative stress such as malondialdehyde (MDA) and total antioxidant activity.Results: The essential amino acid α-keto acid analog- and allopurinol-treated groups had lower levels of creatinine, BUN, renal damage markers, proinflammatory cytokines, and MDA than their corresponding ischemia-reperfusion groups. These changes were related to the essential amino acid α-keto acid analogs dosage. Total antioxidant activity was lower in essential amino acid α-keto acid analog- and allopurinol-treated groups than in the corresponding ischemia-reperfusion groups.Conclusions: This is a new report on the nephroprotective effects of essential amino acid α-keto acid analogs against ischemia-reperfusion injury. Essential amino acid α-keto acid analogs decreased the levels of biochemical markers, kidney injury markers, proinflammatory cytokines, and MDA while minimizing total antioxidant consumption.

Introducción. El cáncer de mama es una neoplasia grave que se origina en los tejidos mamarios y cuyo tratamiento demanda quimioterapia, con los consecuentes cambios en la calidad de vida.Objetivo. Determinar los factores de riesgo asociados con la calidad de vida relacionada con la salud en mujeres con cáncer de mama sometidas a quimioterapia en Cali, Colombia.Materiales y métodos. Se hizo un estudio observacional y transversal con componente analítico en una muestra de 80 mujeres, utilizando los cuestionarios QLQ-C30 para cáncer y QLQ-BR23 para cáncer de mama, así como información sociodemográfica y clínica. Se hizo un análisis de regresión logística para determinar los factores asociados con las razones de momios (odd ratios, OR) ajustadas y un intervalo de confianza (IC) de 95 %; la calidad de vida se clasificó mediante el cuestionario QLQ-BR23.Resultados. Los síntomas más relevantes fueron fatiga, insomnio y pérdida de cabello. Se redujeron la funcionalidad física, las sensaciones de placer y la actividad sexual. Los factores asociados con la baja calidad de vida fueron los síntomas mamarios (OR ajustada=5,5; IC95% 1,2-24,8; p=0,038), los efectos secundarios del tratamiento sistémico (OR ajustada=7,3; IC95% 2,6-22,1; p=0,012), un menor placer sexual (OR ajustada=1,8; IC95% 1,2-11,8; p=0,027) y la reducción de expectativas para el futuro (OR ajustada=4,2; IC95% 1,1-17,8; p=0,045).Conclusiones. En las mujeres con cáncer de mama sometidas a quimioterapia, la calidad de vida se vio afectada principalmente por los efectos secundarios del tratamiento, en tanto que los signos y los síntomas más relevantes fueron la pérdida del cabello, el insomnio y la fatiga, además de los síntomas mamarios, la menor funcionalidad física y la menor sensación de placer sexual. Se recomienda la implementación de estrategias de intervención destinadas a mejorar la calidad de vida, y el cuidado físico y emocional de las pacientes.

Background

Colorectal cancer is one of the most common cancers worldwide. Psychological morbidity has an important impact on quality of life and major clinical outcomes. Several data have shown that the immune system may be a key player on the relation between psychological features and cancer outcomes. Natural Killer (NK) cells have been shown to be influenced by psychological factors. The aim of this investigation was to assess the impact of anxiety, depression, and anger state, trait, and expression on the immune response, particularly, their effect on NK cells and CD8+ T cells in surgical colorectal cancer patients.

Methods

We studied 54 surgical colorectal cancer patients and assessed patients pre-surgically, post-surgically, and 12 months after surgery (follow-up). We applied the Hospital Anxiety and Depression Scale and the State-Trait Anger Expression Inventory and measured peripheral T cells, CD8+ T cells, and NK cells. We did a cross-sectional analysis as well as a longitudinal assessment of the variables during the follow-up period.

Results

Pre-surgical assessment: Trait anger, angry reaction, and anger-out had a significant negative correlation with NK cells. The lymphocytes values were unaffected by the presence of clinical anxiety or depression. Post-surgical assessment: Patients without clinical anxiety had higher levels of T cells. Angry reaction was negatively correlated with NK cells. Lymphocytes values were unaffected by the presence of clinical depression. Follow-up assessment: Patients without clinical depression had higher T cell counts. Trait anger and angry reaction were negatively correlated with the levels of NK cells. The lymphocytes values were unaffected by the presence of clinical anxiety. Longitudinal assessment: Angry-temperament, anger expression, and anger-in reduced significantly from the first to the second assessment. Anxiety, state anger, and trait anger significantly diminished from the pre-surgical to the follow-up assessment. Depression levels did not alter during the follow-up period. The lymphocyte count, and particularly T cells and CD8+ T cells, was significantly higher in the follow-up when compared with the pre-surgical assessment.

Conclusion

Our study suggests the existence of a relation between psychological response and immune response in colorectal cancer patients. We identified the importance of emotional regulation as a potential modulator for NK cell counts. Higher values of propensity to experience anger states and express them outwards seem to be associated with lower NK cell counts.

Aims: The aim of the current study was to determine the antibiotic resistance profile of Staphylococcus aureus strains isolated from rinse water of chicken carcass in artisanal slaughterhouses in Abidjan.

Place and Duration of Study: Chicken’s rinse water samples were collected between January and March 2020 in three areas of Abidjan district.

Methodology: A total of 75 rinse water samples were collected from three markets of Abidjan district. Enumeration and isolation of S. aureus were carried out on Baird Parker agar supplemented with egg yolk tellurite emulsion followed by morphological and biochemical identification. Antibiotics resistance profiles were performed by using disks diffusion methods.

Results: Out of 75 samples, 21 (28%) were contaminated with S. aureus. Among the isolates, 21 (one by positive sample) were tested for antimicrobial resistance against 14 most commonly used antibiotics. All strains were resistant to two antibiotics (minocyclin and fusidic acid). However, some drugs such as gentamiycin, norfloxacin, and Tigecyclin showed great activity on tested isolates.

Conclusion: Results of this study suggest that rinse water could consist of a major critical point of chicken carcass contamination by S. aureus with high drugs resistance capacity. Therefore periodic control is need to good hygiene practice and improving the poultry meat sanitary quality produce from these slaughterhouses.
