Imágenes en conflicto: el fenómeno iconoclasta como teoría del disenso
Authors: Martín Sergio 
Published: November 2019

Recientes estudios han tratado de profundizar en dos conceptos fundamentales en el estudio histórico de la cultura humana: la imagen y la iconoclasia. Apartados en un principio de los cánones académicos impartidos desde la Historia del Arte, han sido deconstruidos por nuevas corrientes teóricas como los estudios visuales o la ciencia de la imagen. Debido a esta apertura hacia nuevas perspectivas sobre los objetos y prácticas artísticas, se ha comenzado a revisar más de cerca el fenómeno bautizado como la destrucción del arte o, comúnmente conocido, como los fenómenos iconoclastas. Entendidos como actos relacionados sobre bases del fundamento religioso, se convirtieron en laboratorios de algunas de las crisis sobre la representación a través de la práctica artística y la reacción frente a esta. Así pues, actualmente, esta clase de sucesos están siendo revisitados para ampliar los límites en los que se les solía encasillar: que iban desde disputas religiosas hasta meros ataques emocionales y vandálicos. Por lo tanto, en el presente escrito se busca aproximarse a otra mirada sobre la iconoclasia que tiene presente las teorías sobre la plusvalía de las imágenes compartidos por autores como W.J.T Mitchell o David Freedberg. Con este propósito, se trata de encontrar otras definiciones al acto violento contra las imágenes, convirtiéndose este fenómeno en una posible teoría del disenso. Se defiende, de este modo, un campo de estudio que analiza los eventos destructivos como un escenario del agonismo que articula cambios en las comunidades sociales desde sus propias representaciones y el pensamiento tras estas.
Perspectiva de género y activismo político en las prácticas artísticas contemporáneas.

Published: November 2019

Este análisis parte de un proyecto de investigación realizado durante los últimos años en torno a la división sexual del trabajo y la educación. La globalización ha facultado movimientos activistas y feministas que traspasan fronteras, como #metoo, que permitió dar voz y visibilidad a los abusos cometidos contra las mujeres en el mundo laboral. Trabajando de forma colaborativa y participativa, el proyecto #EqualWorkEqualRights se constituye en forma de campaña de sensibilización. Para ello se acude a una metodología del conocimiento situado, trazando los curriculum vitae de hombres y mujeres de distintos continentes, entrelazados por el común de su escritura desde una perspectiva de género que denuncia las desigualdades en el trabajo y en la educación. Las prácticas de la autorepresentación están presentes en un versionado de currículum vitae proyectivo, que construye el futuro desde el presente inmediato para delatar las aporías de la economía capitalista global fundada en el heteropatriarcado. Se construye de esta forma un archivo activista desde una perspectiva feminista de las personas milenials que más afectadas se ven por el precariado y por las desigualdades de género.
Stand age and species composition effects on surface albedo in a mixedwood boreal forest
Authors: Halim Mohammad Abdul , Chen Han Y. H. , Thomas Sean C. 
Published: November 2019

Abstract. Surface albedo is one of the most important processes governing climate forcing in the boreal forest and is directly affected by management activities such as harvesting and natural disturbances such as forest fires. Empirical data on the effects of these disturbances on boreal forest albedo are sparse. We conducted ground-based measurements of surface albedo from a series of instrument towers over 4 years in a replicated chronosequence of mixedwood boreal forest sites differing in stand age (to 19 years since disturbance) in both post-harvest and post-fire stands. We investigated the effects of stand age, canopy height, tree species composition, and ground vegetation cover on surface albedo through stand development. Our results indicate that winter and spring albedo values were 63 % and 24 % higher, respectively, in post-harvest stands than in post-fire stands. Summer and fall albedo values were similar between disturbance types, with summer albedo showing a transient peak at ∼10 years stand age. The proportion of deciduous broadleaf species showed a strong positive relationship with seasonal averages of albedo in both post-harvest and post-fire stands. Given that stand composition in mixedwood boreal forests generally shows a gradual replacement of deciduous trees by conifers, our results suggest that successional changes in species composition are likely a key driver of age-related patterns in albedo. Our findings also suggest the efficacy of increasing the proportion of deciduous broadleaf species as a silvicultural option for climate-friendly management of the boreal forest.
The economically optimal warming limit of the planet

Published: November 2019

Abstract. Both climate-change damages and climate-change mitigation will incur
economic costs. While the risk of severe damages increases with the level of
global warming (Dell et al., 2014; IPCC, 2014b, 2018; Lenton et al., 2008), mitigating
costs increase steeply with more stringent warming limits (IPCC, 2014a; Luderer et al., 2013;
Rogelj et al., 2015). Here, we show that the global warming limit that
minimizes this century's total economic costs of climate change lies between
1.9 and 2 ∘C, if temperature changes continue to impact national
economic growth rates as observed in the past and if instantaneous growth
effects are neither compensated nor amplified by additional growth effects
in the following years. The result is robust across a wide range of normative
assumptions on the valuation of future welfare and inequality aversion. We
combine estimates of climate-change impacts on economic growth for 186
countries (applying an empirical damage function from Burke et al., 2015)
with mitigation costs derived from a state-of-the-art energy–economy–climate
model with a wide range of highly resolved mitigation options (Kriegler
et al., 2017; Luderer et al., 2013, 2015). Our purely economic assessment,
even though it omits non-market damages, provides support for the
international Paris Agreement on climate change. The political goal of limiting
global warming to “well below 2 degrees” is thus also an economically optimal goal
given above assumptions on adaptation and damage persistence.
La nueva derecha radical como reto a la gobernanza y a la calidad de la democracia
Authors: Lerín Ibarra David 
Published: November 2019

El avance y consolidación electoral de las formaciones políticas de nueva derecha radical, en las últimas décadas, supone un reto para la calidad de la democracia occidental. Este fenómeno se ha extendido por prácticamente toda Europa, socavando los avances en la construcción de sociedades multiculturales y cosmopolitas, haciendo, por tanto, peligrar la diversidad social de las mismas. En este artículo de carácter teórico, tenemos como objetivo la conceptualización de estas formaciones, distinguiendo la extrema derecha de la nueva derecha radical por medio de un análisis comparativo entre ambas corrientes. De esta forma y siguiendo esta metodología, analizaremos dos principios ideológicos de estos partidos que suponen un riesgo para la gobernanza democrática: la defensa de la nación étnica y la palingenesia ultranacionalista.
IN SILICO MODELING OF THE MOLECULAR STRUCTURE OF microRNAs MARKERS FOR LIVER FIBROSIS IN HEPATITIS C

Published: November 2019

Molecular biology looks for evidence that microRNA (miRNAs) plays a relevant function both in the beginning and advanced stages of hepatic fibrosis (HF), and has been proposed as an additional biomarker for HF forecasting in carriers of hepatitis C virus (HCV) infection. The purpose of this study was to develop an in silico modeling of the two-dimensional (2D) molecular structure of miRNA markers for HF in carriers of HCV. A search was initially performed for the nucleotide sequence of 6 miRNAs defined as biomarkers for HF, performinga computational simulation of the molecular structure of the following miRNAs: miRNA-182, miRNA-183, miRNA-1260b, miRNA-122-3p, miRNA-378i, and miRNA-214-5p. The nucleotide sequences were chosen in the GenBank of the American National Institutes of Health genetic sequence database. The nucleotide sequence alignment was carried out with a text-based format (FASTA) tool. In the molecular modeling, the structures were built with the RNAstructure, a completely automated miRNAs structure modelling server, available through Web Servers for RNA Secondary Structure Prediction. This study presented the nucleotide sequence and the computational simulation of molecular structures for the following miRNA: miRNA-182, miRNA-183, miRNA-1260b, miRNA-122-3p, miRNA-378i, and miRNA-214-5p. The molecular structure of miRNAs markers for HF in HCV carriers, through computational biology, is essential for designing more efficient optional tools for accurate treatment.

Published: November 2019

Medicinal plants are of great interest for the discovery of new biomolecules with diversified effects. Over the last decade different outbreaks caused by Mycobacterium abscessus subsp. massiliense have been reported, evidencing it as an important emerging pathogen in underdeveloped countries. This study investigated the antimycobacterial activity of six Brazilian medicinal plant extracts and their fractions. Hyptis brevipes, Tocoyena formosa, Randia armata, Paullinia pinnata, Lafoensia pacari and Anadenanthera colubrina were evaluated against M. a. massiliense. Total extracts from the medicinal plants H. brevipes, T. formosa, P. pinnata and L. pacari presented a minimal bactericidal concentration of 1 mg/mL. After fractioning, the ethanolic fractions from H. brevipes and P. pinnata presented bactericidal activity, and the ethyl acetate fraction from H. brevipes and T. formosa presented antimycobacterial action. The best bactericidal function of all plant fractions was the ethanolic, which contained rutin and rosmarinic acid that were shown to have microbicidal activity.

Published: November 2019

Brazilian Spotted Fever is an important tick-borne disease caused by Rickettsia rickettsii and transmitted mainly by the human-biting tick Amblyomma sculptum. During an epidemiological surveillance in Pedro Leopoldo, an endemic area of Minas Gerais State, southeastern Brazil, ectoparasites were collected from vertebrate hosts and from the environment. Rickettsial genes were obtained from a male A. sculptum and the resulting phylogenetic tree grouped this bacterium with Rickettsia sp. isolate Pampulha, a strain closely related to the pathogenic species Rickettsia tamurae and Rickettsia monacensis. This is the first report of sequencesphylogenetically related to R. tamurae and R. monacensis infecting A. sculptum in Brazil.

The purpose of this study was to search for Lutzomyia longipalpis and Lutzomyia cruzi in the urban area of the Água Clara Municipality, Mato Grosso do Sul State, Brazil. Two CDC traps were placed in the intradomicile and the peridomicile areas in four residences once a month, for three consecutive nights during 24 months. Were collected 11 species of sand flies totaling 3,418 specimens, 2,762 males and 656 females. Lu. longipalpis was the dominant species and there was no statistical difference between the peridomicile and intradomicile areas. Lu. cruzi was not found. The high capture rate for Lu. longipalpis in the urban area of Água Clara is cause for concern regarding necessary preventive measures to avoid future cases of visceral leishmaniasis.

Published: November 2019

Objective: To evaluate the Grand-Aides Program for patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) according to the variables of body weight, blood pressure, medication adherence, and hospital consultation and readmissions.Methods: Patients ages 18 years or older with a past medical history of T2DM, hypertension (HTN), and/or obesity and who were recently seen in the emergency department (ED) or recently admitted to the hospital were eligible to enroll in the Grand-Aides Program. Eligible patients were identified after hospital or ED discharge and were asked to enroll in the in-home based program from March 2016 through June 2018. In-home visit protocol was defined prior to patient enrollment with intense in-home visits during the first weeks of enrollment followed by monthly visits for the duration of enrollment in the program. In-home visit frequency was adjusted on as needed basis so that patients at higher risk for ED visits or hospitalization were seen more frequently. In-home visits were performed by trained Grand-Aide who for the purpose of this study was a certified nursing assistant (CNA). The Grand-Aide underwent eighty hours of didactic training which included visit protocols, visit schedules, and data collection. The one-on-one in-home patient with every visit were supervised by a registered nurse (RN) or nurse practitioner (NP) via video or telephone contact near the conclusion of the visit. Active patients at the University of Virginia Family Medicine clinic were eligible for enrollment. Fifty-seven patients with T2DM worked with Grand-Aides for three months and an additional forty-eight T2DM patients worked with Grand-Aides for twelve months. Emergency department visits, all 30-day hospital readmissions, as well as blood pressure readings, medication adherence, weights, and glycated hemoglobin (HbA1c) were compared with the prior twelve months.Results: Systolic (p < .001) and diastolic (p < .01) blood pressures decreased (p < .01) at 1 year. At baseline 56 percent of the patients had a systolic blood pressure of >130 mmHg despite treatment; after 12 months, 48 percent of these were < 130. In those whose baseline diastolic blood pressure was > 90 mmHg, 100 percent had diastolic blood pressure < 90 mmHg at 1 year. Medication adherence by ARMS test at 1 year was 94 percent. Despite trending downward, weight and HbA1c did not change significantly. In the preceding, 58 percent had at least one ED visit, which was reduced by 50 percent (p < .01) with Grand-Aides; 30-day all-cause readmissions reduced by 50 percent to 6.3 percent. Conclusions: The Grand-Aides program was associated with a significant change in blood pressure control, high medication adherence and reductions in ED visits and readmissions that compare favorably with published comparative data. For systems “at risk” for preventable increased health care expense burden, the Grand-Aides program can result in significant savings.
Approach to Chronic Urticaria from Primary Care and Emergency Services: Case Reports in Spain

Published: November 2019

Urticaria is a common process. The true incidence is not known; it is believed that between 15 and 25% of the population may suffer at some point in his life. Acute urticaria has a prevalence of 20% and the chronic form 0.5–1%. Urticaria is a disease that affects the skin and mucosa, characterized by the presence of hives. It occurs as a localized intracutaneous edema circled and an area of redness (erythema), which is typically itchy. There are histaminergic foods and drugs that worsen the prognosis of the disease. Foods which rely on aging to taste nice are always presumed to be high in histamine (chocolate, yogurt, seafood, strawberries, etc.) and drugs like nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs. For diagnosis we have several tools (urticarial activity score, chronic urticaria quality-of-life questionnaire (CU-Q2oL), urticaria control test, etc., among which the most useful, simple, and cost-effective is the clinic history). The treatment of choice are antihistamines, from a daily tablet up to four tablets as maximum dose. Corticosteroids are excluded to exacerbations and must be prescribed in short guideline (maximum 10 days) without progressive decrease. Severe forms of urticaria resistant to treatment with antihistamines are treated with biological agents like omalizumab.
Gumersindo de Azcárate: Derecho, "Selfgovernment" y Constitución inglesa
Authors: Capellán De Miguel Gonzalo 
Published: November 2019

Gumersindo de Azcárate (León, 1840— Madrid, 1917) fue uno de los más influyentes catedráticos de derecho y políticos de la España contemporánea. Fue un miembro activo del denominado movimiento krausista que desempeñó un importante papel en la cultura y política española tras la revolución de 1868. Desde diferentes revistas y desde la propia Universidad defendió los principios liberales y democráticos que conducían al establecimiento de su ideal: Estado de derecho. En ese contexto apoyó la nueva constitución de 1869, que Azcárate considerará siempre un referente y el mejor código fundamental de la España moderna. Con la Restauración en 1874 de la Monarquía inspirada en el doctrinarismo francés Azcárate se mostró muy crítico y propuso dirigir la mirada hacia la constitución de Inglaterra como el modelo jurídico-político a tener en cuenta. A su juicio el sistema constitucional inglés se articulaba en torno al principio del self-goverment o soberanía de la sociedad a partir del cual se construía un régimen parlamentario democrático con una administración descentralizada, un poder judicial independiente y una opinión pública que actuaba a la vez como fuente, guía y límite de los distintos poderes del Estado. Entre 1886 y 1916 Azcárate fue Diputado en el Congreso de los Diputados por el partido republicano y se implicó activamente, como presidente del Instituto de Reformas Sociales (1903), en la mejora de las condiciones de vida las clases obreras.Gumersindo de Azcárate (León, 1840— Madrid, 1917) was one the most influential Law professor and politician in Contemporary Spain. He was an active member of the so-call krausist movement that played a major role in Spanish culture and politics after the revolution of 1868. From both, journals and University he defended the liberal and democratic principles that lead to his ideal: a rule of law. In that context he supported the new constitution of 1869, regarded by Azcárate for the rest of his life as the best one in Spanish modern history. When the Restoration took place in 1874 and a constitutional Monarchy inspired in French doctinaires’ political theory was set up, Azcárate criticised it proposing to look over the Constitution of England as a model. According to his interpretation of English constitutional system, the principle of self-government or the sovereignty of society was the key principle for building a true democratic parliamentary government based on the free association of individuals, a decentralized administration, an independent judicial power and public opinion as the very source, guide and limit of all the powers of the State. From 1886 up to 1916 Azcárate became Member of the Parliament as representative of the republican party and was actively involve in the Intitute for Social Reforms (1903) that tried to improve the condition of the working classes.

Effect of Post Emergent Herbicides on Centaurea diluta Aiton Infecting Wheat in Ouazzane Region - Morocco
Authors: Hajjaj B. , El Oualkadi A. , Tantaoui H. , Chentouf M. 
Published: November 2019

High infestations of Centaurea diluta (Lesser star-thistle) become a serious problem to cereal farmers in Ouazzane region of Morocco. The aim of this study is to investigate the effect of three post-emergent herbicides on C. diluta infestation in a soft wheat crop. The experimental design was Randomized Complete Block Design (RCBD) with three replications. Each block contained 4 elementary plots, 3 plots of which were treated with the three post emergent herbicides and the untreated plots serving as control. Trials were conducted in Ouazzane region of Morocco in January 2017. Treatments were carried out with a knapsack sprayer with the nozzle delivering a 3 bar jet. Calculation of reduction of biomass in C. diluta was carried out at weed research laboratory of INRA-CRRA Tangier in March 2017 using an oven at 75ºC for 48 hours. The weights were then taken using a precision balance. A quadrant of 1 m2 was used to calculate the reduction of density in C. diluta. Results showed that treatment with Aminopyralid + Florasulam at (9.9 + 4.95) g/ha and 2,4-D at 600 g/ha gave the best control of C. diluta infestations. In fact, Aminopyralid + Florasulam at (9.9+4.95) g/ha recorded 88±4.1%, 86±5.1% and 97±1.6% respectively on reduction of density, height and biomass in C. diluta. 2,4-D at 600 g/ha recorded 75±3.1%, 84±4.2% and 94±2.5% respectively on reduction of density, height and biomass in C. diluta. Tribenuron-methyl at 9.50 g/ha recorded the lowest efficacies recording 25±4.9%, 21±4.8% and 37±8.1% respectively on reduction of density, height and biomass in C. diluta. Thus, Aminopyralid + Florasulam at (9.9+4.95) g/ha and 2,4-D at 600 g/ha could be recommended to farmers in Ouazzane region when C. diluta infestation is dominant on wheat. A further assessment of Aminipyralid and Florasulam residues in soil and their phytotoxicities should be evaluated on other crops grown in rotations.
