Radiative corrections to the Dalitz plot of K_{l3}^\pm decays

We calculate the model-independent radiative corrections to the Dalitz plot of K_{l3}^\pm decays to order (\alpha/\pi)(q/M_1), where q is the momentum transfer and M_1 is the mass of the kaon. The final results are presented, first, with the triple integration over the variables of the bremsstrahlung photon ready to be performed numerically and, second, in an analytical form. These two forms are useful to crosscheck on one another and with other calculations. This paper is organized to make it accessible and reliable in the analysis of the Dalitz plot of precision experiments and is not compromised to fixing the form factors at predetermined values. It is assumed that the real photons are kinematically discriminated. Otherwise, our results have a general model-independent applicability.Comment: RevTex4, 38 pages, 5 figures, 5 tables; some typos corrected; discussion extended to compare with other result

Análisis e implementación del protocolo de enrutamiento ospf para ip versión 6

In this present paper analyzes the OSPFv3 protocol implementation and the obstacles that network administrators are for migrating native IPv4 to IPv6 networks.The move to IPv6 is currently happening with service providers and some of them are very close to the implementation phase. Many government organizations (in the U.S.) have also received mandates to migrate their systems in anticipation of the need to support IPv6.Most companies and government organizations are not ready for IPv6. They are still in the planning stages of assessment or due to lack of awareness and understanding of how to manage the transition to IPv6. However, eventually these companies must make the change because its members, employees and customers will demand it. Users and new devices that use IPv6, manage changeEn el presente trabajo se analiza la implementación del protocolo OSPFv3, así como los obstáculos que los administradores de red se encuentran para la migración de redes IPv4 a redes nativas de IPv6.El movimiento hacia IPv6 está actualmente efectuado con proveedores de servicio, algunos de ellos están muy cerca de la fase de implementación. Muchas organizaciones de gobierno (en los Estados Unidos) también han recibido mandatos para migrar sus sistemas en anticipación a la necesidad de soportar el protocolo IPv6.La mayoría de las empresas y organizaciones de gobierno no están listas para implementar el IPv6, aún están en las etapas de evaluación o planeación debido a la falta de conciencia y entendimiento de cómo manejar la transición de este dispositivo. Sin embargo, eventualmente estas empresas deben hacer el cambio debido a que sus usuarios, empleados y clientes lo demandarán. Los usuarios y nuevos dispositivos que utilizarán IPv6, manejarán este proceso de transformación

Nuevos fotocatalizadores Sm2FeTaO7 y Sm2InTaO7 para la eliminación de contaminantes presentes en el agua

En esta investigación se reporta por primera vez la síntesis del óxido tipo pirocloro Sm2FeTaO7 por los métodos de reacción en estado sólido y sol-gel, así como el óxido Sm2InTaO7 mediante sol-gel. Los resultados de la caracterización estructural revelaron que el óxido Sm2FeTaO7 cristaliza en el sistema monoclínico con grupo espacial C2/c mientras que el óxido Sm2InTaO7 cristaliza en el sistema cúbico y grupo espacial Fd-3m. Para ambos materiales, cuando se utilizó el método sol-gel se obtienen materiales con propiedades morfológicas y superficiales diferentes, principalmente, en su tamaño de partícula y área superficial específica. La evaluación fotocatalítica mostró que el Sm2FeTaO7 es activo en la eliminación del colorante índigo carmín bajo condiciones reales de radiación solar. Mientras que, el Sm2InTaO7 es eficiente para reducir el ion Cr (VI) y degradar el colorante cristal violeta

Relationship between Determinants of Health, Equity, and Dimensions of Health Literacy in Patients with Cardiovascular Disease

Background: Health literacy (HL) has been linked to empowerment, use of health services, and equity. Evaluating HL in people with cardiovascular health problems would facilitate the development of suitable health strategies care and reduce inequity. Aim: To investigate the relationship between different dimensions that make up HL and social determinants in patients with cardiovascular disease. Methods: Observational, descriptive, cross-sectional study in patients with cardiovascular disease, aged 50-85 years, accessing primary care services in Valencia (Spain) in 2018-2019. The Health Literacy Questionnaire was used. Results: 252 patients. Age was significantly related with the ability to participate with healthcare providers (p = 0.043), ability to find information (p = 0.022), and understanding information correctly to know what to do (p = 0.046). Level of education was significant for all HL dimensions. Patients without studies scored lower in all dimensions. The low- versus middle-class social relationship showed significant results in all dimensions. Conclusions: In patients with cardiovascular disease, level of education and social class were social determinants associated with HL scores. Whilst interventions at individual level might address some HL deficits, inequities in access to cardiovascular care and health outcomes would remain unjustly balanced unless structural determinants of HL are taken into account

Isokinetic leg strength and power in elite handball players

Isokinetic strength evaluation of the knee flexion and extension in concentric mode of contraction is an important part of the comprehensive evaluation of athletes. The aims of this study were to evaluate the isokinetic knee peak torque in both the extension and flexion movement in the dominant and non-dominant leg, and the relationship with jumping performance. Twelve elite male handball players from the top Spanish handball division voluntary participated in the study (age 27.68 ± 4.12 years; body mass 92.89 ± 12.34 kg; body height 1.90 ± 0.05 m). The knee extensor and flexor muscle peak torque of each leg were concentrically measured at 60º/s and 180º/s with an isokinetic dynamometer. The Squat Jump and Countermovement Jump were performed on a force platform to determine power and vertical jump height. Non-significant differences were observed between legs in the isokinetic knee extension (dominant= 2.91 ± 0.53 Nm/kg vs non-dominant = 2.70 ± 0.47 Nm/kg at 60º/s; dominant = 1.90 ± 0.31 Nm/kg vs non-dominant = 1.83 ± 0.29 Nm/kg at 180º/s) and flexion peak torques (dominant = 1.76 ± 0.29 Nm/kg vs non-dominant = 1.72 ± 0.39 Nm/kg at 60º/s; dominant = 1.30 ± 0.23 Nm/kg vs non-dominant = 1.27 ± 0.35 Nm/kg at 180º/s). Low and non-significant correlation coefficients were found between the isokinetic peak torques and vertical jumping performance (SJ = 31.21 ± 4.32 cm; CMJ = 35.89 ± 4.20 cm). Similar isokinetic strength was observed between the legs; therefore, no relationship was found between the isokinetic knee flexion and extension peak torques as well as vertical jumping performance in elite handball players.Actividad Física y Deport

The NALP3/Cryopyrin-Inflammasome Complex is Expressed in LPS-Induced Ocular Inflammation

In the inflammosome complex, NALP3 or NALP1 binds to ASC and activates caspase-1 which induces IL-1β. In murine LPS-induced ocular inflammation, the production of IL-1β is increased. We suggest that NALP3- or NALP1-inflammasome complex can be participating in the LPS-induced ocular inflammation. In this work, eye, brain, testis, heart, spleen, and lung were obtained from C3H/HeN mice treated with LPS for 3 to 48 hours, and the expression of NALP1b, NALP3, ASC, caspase-1, IL-1β, and IL-18 was determined. Infiltrated leukocytes producing IL-1β in the anterior chamber were found at 12-hour posttreatment. A high upregulated expression of NALP3, ASC, caspase-1, IL-1β, and IL-18 was found at the same time when infiltrated leukocytes were observed. NALP1b was not detected in the eye of treated mice. NALP3 was also overexpressed in heart and lung. These results suggest that NALP3-, but not NALP1-inflammosome complex, is participating in the murine LPS-induced ocular inflammation

Adding plant oils to dairy goat diets: Effect on fatty acid content of milk fat

[ES]: El objetivo del presente trabajo fue investigar el efecto de la adición de aceites vegetales de diferente grado de insaturación a la dieta de cabras lecheras sobre el perfil de ácidos grasos de la grasa láctea. Doce cabras de raza Malagueña fueron asignadas al azar a uno de cuatro tratamientos: dieta basal sin aceite añadido y la misma dieta basal adicionada con 48 g/d de aceite de girasol alto oleico, aceite de girasol normal o aceite de lino. La dieta estuvo compuesta por heno de alfalfa (30%) y un concentrado granulado (70%) en el que se incluyó el aceite correspondiente. Todos los aceites redujeron el contenido de ácidos grasos saturados de cadena media de la grasa láctea (P 0,05). El aceite de girasol normal incrementó el contenido de los ácidos C18:1t10, vaccénico y ruménico y aumentó el valor de la ratio linoleico/α-linolénico (P 0,05). Los resultados obtenidos permiten concluir que la adición de aceite de lino a la dieta de cabras en lactación, en comparación con la de los aceites de girasol alto oleico y normal, modifica el perfil de ácidos grasos de la grasa láctea en un sentido más favorable desde el punto de vista de la salud humana.[EN]: The aim of this study was to investigate the effects of adding differently unsaturated vegetable oils to a dairy goat diet on fatty acid content of milk fat. Twelve Malagueña goats were randomly allocated to one of four treatments: no oil basal diet and the same basal diet supplemented with 48 g/d of high oleic sunflower oil, regular sunflower oil or linseed oil. The basal diet was made of alfalfa hay and a pelleted concentrate (30:70 w/w). The concentrate included the respective oils. Supplemented diets decreased medium chain saturated fatty acid content in milk fat (P 0.05). Regular sunflower oil increased C18:1t10, vaccenic and rumenic acid contents as well as linoleic to α-linolenic acid ratio (P 0.05). It was concluded that compared to high oleic o regular sunflower oils, adding linseed oil in dairy goat diets modifies milk fat fatty acid content more favourably from the point of view of human health.Peer Reviewe

Reconfigurable Network for Quantum Transport Simulation

In 1981, Richard Feynman discussed the possibility of performing quantum mechanical simulations of nature. Ever since, there has been an enormous interest in using quantum mechanical systems, known as quantum simulators, to mimic specific physical systems. Hitherto, these controllable systems have been implemented on different platforms that rely on trapped atoms, superconducting circuits and photonic arrays. Unfortunately, these platforms do not seem to satisfy, at once, all desirable features of an universal simulator, namely long-lived coherence, full control of system parameters, low losses, and scalability. Here, we overcome these challenges and demonstrate robust simulation of quantum transport phenomena using a state-of-art reconfigurable electronic network. To test the robustness and precise control of our platform, we explore the ballistic propagation of a single-excitation wavefunction in an ordered lattice, and its localization due to disorder. We implement the Su-Schrieffer-Heeger model to directly observe the emergence of topologically-protected one-dimensional edge states. Furthermore, we present the realization of the so-called perfect transport protocol, a key milestone for the development of scalable quantum computing and communication. Finally, we show the first simulation of the exciton dynamics in the B800 ring of the purple bacteria LH2 complex. The high fidelity of our simulations together with the low decoherence of our device make it a robust, versatile and promising platform for the simulation of quantum transport phenomena

Evaluación de la Postioplastía Horizontal Alta (PHA) para corrección de estenosis prepucial posquirúrgica en toros para su reingreso a la empresa bovina

Para la evaluación de la Postioplastía Horizontal Alta (PHA) para corrección de estenosis prepucial posquirúrgica en toros para su reingreso a la empresa bovina se realizó un estudio de tipo descriptivo no probabilístico. Los pacientes quirúrgicos fueron dos toros Brahman/Sardo Negro con estenosis prepucial posquirúrgica. Se realizó una incisión horizontal por arriba del conducto fibroso. Para la hemostasia de los vasos pequeños fue suficiente el pinzamiento y torsión. La divulsión se realizó en 360° hasta conseguir el desprendimiento de todo el conducto fibroso, hasta observar nuevamente la luz normal del conducto. Se le colocaron 4 puntos de forma cardinal con sutura de nylon monofílico para expandir la mucosa y poder suturarla a la piel, esos mismos puntos de sujeción se fijaron con punto de cirujano y posteriormente se colocaran los puntos necesarios entre ellos. Como resultado, los toros operados con la técnica descrita tuvieron recuperación en un período de 90 días posoperatorio. La RB-C fue de 4.2 significa que por cada peso invertido, dicho peso fue recuperado y además se obtuvo una ganancia extra de $3.2 pesos M/N. Se concluye que la Postioplastia Horizontal Alta fue eficiente, siendo de 4.2 pesos M/N, al mismo tiempo que los toros en un lapso de 90 días empezaron con su función zootécnica
