    The present article treats about Li-Fraumeni syndrome (LFS), a genetic disease with autosomal dominant transmission which is associated with an increased predisposition to suffer certain cancers. However, prostate cancer has not been recognized as one of the main neoplasms associated with LFS, and so its diagnosis is not included in LFS screening programs. Urologists should make a prompt identification of patients or relatives at risk of suffering Li- Fraumeni syndrome, and referral to a genetic counseling unit. Prompt diagnosis and treatment of prostate cancer is important. Given the aggressive nature of the condition in carriers of a PT53 gene mutation, radical surgery is the first option in localized disease. As this condition confers higher risk of developing secondary tumors, radiotherapy and chemotherapy should be avoided. There is no clear evidence regarding the usefulness of hormone therapy in these patients. We consider that the recommendations set out in the article can help urologist in the management of patients diagnosed with LFS and suspected prostate cancer

    Estudi Socioeconòmic sobre la flota pesquera catalana. Descripció del mostreig i les dades obtingudes en l’estudi efectuat sobre la flota del port de Palamós (ICATMAR 23-12)

    52 pages, 30 figures, 1 table, 5 annexesEn el marc de la recopilació de dades sobre la pesca a Catalunya realitzat per l’Institut Català de Recerca per a la Governança del Mar (ICATMAR), l’any 2020 es va començar la recollida sistemàtica de dades socioeconòmiques sobre la flota pesquera comercial catalana a través d’una prova pilot al port de Vilanova i la Geltrú (ICATMAR 20-01). L’objectiu d’aquesta línia és obtenir dades perquè l’administració disposi de la informació necessària per tal de gestionar els recursos tenint en compte els interessos, a vegades contraposats, de tota la comunitat pesquera. La Direcció General de Política Marítima i Pesca Sostenible (DGPMPS) de la Generalitat de Catalunya disposa de les dades d’ingressos per vendes en euros, preu mitjà de les espècies comercials i captures en pes de tota la flota que ven a les llotges de Catalunya, però no té encara informació sobre les despeses de l’activitat econòmica pesquera ni sobre l’estructura social del sector. Seguint l’estructuració de la costa catalana en 3 zones (Nord, Centre i Sud, ICATMAR 22-04), el pla d’acció contempla realitzar un estudi socioeconòmic al llarg del territori, per a poder dur a terme una anàlisi comparativa entre zones. Per a aquesta segona fase de l’estudi socioeconòmic de la flota pesquera catalana, es va escollir el port de Palamós perquè la seva mida és comparable a la del port de Vilanova i la Geltrú, on es va realitzar la prova pilot, està situat a la zona Nord del litoral català i també hi són ben representades les diferents pesqueres practicades a Catalunya (Figura 1). Actualment la flota pesquera de Palamós consta de 3 barques d’encerclament, 23 barques d’arrossegament i 16 barques d’arts menors (sonseres, tresmalls, soltes, nanses i palangre de fons), totes elles en actiu i amb horaris de sortida, arribada i venda a llotja diferents en funció de cada modalitat de pesca. A més, la Confraria d’aquest port compta amb 2 mariscadors que, en funció de l’època de l’any, es dediquen a les modalitats de línies de mà i canya, poteres i marisqueig (Figura 2). Tant l’art d’arrossegament com el d’encerclament fan parades temporals per veda (2 i 1 mesos a l’hivern respectivament), les sonseres fan parada per “veda biològica” (2,5 mesos també a l’hivern) per tal de contribuir a la regeneració dels caladors que exploten i preservar la seva espècie objectiu i, per últim, els mariscadors fan veda de l’eriçó (Paracentrotus lividus) durant 5 mesos entre primavera i estiu. Les vedes estan regulades per la Unió Europea per garantir la sostenibilitat de les activitats pesqueres i que aquestes tinguin el mínim impacte en l’ecosistema marí.

    State of fisheries in Catalonia 2022, Part 2: Stock assessment (ICATMAR, 23-08)

    Get PDF
    95 pages, 60 figures, 30 tables, 21 annexesThis report presents the stock assessment results obtained by ICATMAR using its own data set and a data-resource limited (length-based) model (i.e. LBSPR) in the N GSA06. The results estimate that the Spawning Potential Ratio (SPR) for hake (HKE), red mullet (MUT) and blue and red shrimp (ARA) is under SPRlim. On the contrary, for deep-water rose shrimp (DPS), Norway lobster (NEP), European sardine (PIL) and anchovy (ANE), the estimated SPR is above SPRlim (Figure 1). In detail, for each species, the results are: Hake, red mullet and blue and red shrimp are under SPRlim for the four years evaluated and with the three scenarios tested. For the blue and red shrimp there is a negative trend in the SPR estimates. The deep-water rose shrimp stock is between SPRpa and SPRlim for all years and the four scenarios, with no clear trend. Norway lobster and European sardine are between SPRpa and SPRlim, or above SPRpa in some years, depending on the scenario. The Norway lobster has a negative trend, as opposed to the European sardine, which has a positive trend. Anchovy is above SPRpa and, in 2022, it is near the SPRtgt for all scenarios tested. The advice drawn from these models should be considered as qualitative, and the stocks are considered overexploited in all casesWith the institutional support of the ‘Severo Ochoa Centre of Excellence’ accreditation (CEX2019-000928-S)Peer reviewe
