Representaciones, transformaciones e intervenciones en el paisaje de ruinas de Roma a Passaic

La presente investigación comienza con un enigma que el artista Robert Smithson plantea casi al final de su ensayo Tour por los monumentos de Passaic, Nueva Jersey (Artforum, 1967): mirando el paisaje desolado y desértico de esta ciudad se preguntaba si Passaic podría haber sustituido a Roma como Ciudad Eterna. El asunto que presentaba Robert Smithson es significativo puesto que, efectivamente, el artista contemporáneo había comenzado a fijarse en los paisajes marginales, en las tierras baldías y en los eriales, de forma similar a la que los pintores románticos habían contemplado las ruinas de la Antigüedad, con una mirada nostálgica y melancólica hacia la ruina (ahora el descampado) como reflejo del tiempo que se iba y del futuro, quizás apocalíptico, que estaba por venir..

Reduction of HbA1c levels following nonsurgical treatment of periodontal disease in type 2 diabetics

Objectives: A study was made of the effect of nonsurgical periodontal treatment upon blood glucose control in type 2 diabetics with periodontal disease. Study design: A pre-post repeated measures analytical design was used, with a PubMed search of the related articles published up until December 2008. Results: The improvement in glycosylated hemoglobin (HbA1c) after nonsurgical periodontal treatment on comparing the baseline (8.0290±1.5539) and final values (7.7806±1.5636) was 0.2483±0.1171, and proved statistically significant (p=0.042). Conclusions: A decrease in HbA1c was observed after treatment, thus indicating improved blood glucose control in type 2 diabetics with periodontal disease

Dental implants in patients treated with oral bisphosphonates. A bibliographic review

Bisphosphonates inhibit bone resorption and are used to treat a range of pathologies, including Paget disease, osteoporosis, multiple myeloma and metastases associated with breast or prostate cancer. At present, there is no effective treatment for bisphosphonate induced osteonecrosis, so prevention is extremely important. Since quality of life deteriorates for those suffering osteonecrosis, maximum precautions should be taken with patients at risk, and especially whenever oral surgery, including dental implant placement, is contemplated. Dentists and oral or maxillofacial surgeons must keep up to date with the latest approaches to prevention, particularly when treating patients who are presently taking, or who will be taking bisphosphonates and are also candidates for dental implants

Artistas sobre outras Obras

Entre a pele da pintura e a pele do pintor, existe uma continuidade interrompida pelo encerramento da peça, em que o autor se despede e abre caminho aos novos participantes. Estes são seres políticos, pois são público, são relação. As quinze propostas de abordagem à obra de outros tantos artistas que aqui são apresentadas, neste número 35 da Revista Estúdio, transportam um desejo interior de uma expansão para os vivos, para novas relações, novos trânsitos, no círculo aberto das artesinfo:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersio

Overview of recent TJ-II stellarator results

The main results obtained in the TJ-II stellarator in the last two years are reported. The most important topics investigated have been modelling and validation of impurity transport, validation of gyrokinetic simulations, turbulence characterisation, effect of magnetic configuration on transport, fuelling with pellet injection, fast particles and liquid metal plasma facing components. As regards impurity transport research, a number of working lines exploring several recently discovered effects have been developed: the effect of tangential drifts on stellarator neoclassical transport, the impurity flux driven by electric fields tangent to magnetic surfaces and attempts of experimental validation with Doppler reflectometry of the variation of the radial electric field on the flux surface. Concerning gyrokinetic simulations, two validation activities have been performed, the comparison with measurements of zonal flow relaxation in pellet-induced fast transients and the comparison with experimental poloidal variation of fluctuations amplitude. The impact of radial electric fields on turbulence spreading in the edge and scrape-off layer has been also experimentally characterized using a 2D Langmuir probe array. Another remarkable piece of work has been the investigation of the radial propagation of small temperature perturbations using transfer entropy. Research on the physics and modelling of plasma core fuelling with pellet and tracer-encapsulated solid-pellet injection has produced also relevant results. Neutral beam injection driven Alfvénic activity and its possible control by electron cyclotron current drive has been examined as well in TJ-II. Finally, recent results on alternative plasma facing components based on liquid metals are also presentedThis work has been carried out within the framework of the EUROfusion Consortium and has received funding from the Euratom research and training programme 2014–2018 under Grant Agreement No. 633053. It has been partially funded by the Ministerio de Ciencia, Inovación y Universidades of Spain under projects ENE2013-48109-P, ENE2015-70142-P and FIS2017-88892-P. It has also received funds from the Spanish Government via mobility grant PRX17/00425.
