El interés como mecanismo indirecto de repotenciación de deudas puramente dinerarias

En un ordenamiento jurídico positivo que ha sostenido la prohibición de la indexación o repotenciación de deudas dinerarias a partir de la entrada en vigencia de la Ley N° 23.928, los intereses constituyen una herramienta de ajuste indirecto que persigue evitar la desvalorización del poder adquisitivo de la prestación y que si no se establecen con parámetros de razonabilidad, habilitan la intromisión judicial morigeradora.Facultad de Ciencias Jurídicas y Sociales (JURSOC

Congenital malaria in Urabá, Colombia

<p>Abstract</p> <p>Background</p> <p>Congenital malaria has been considered a rare event; however, recent reports have shown frequencies ranging from 3% to 54.2% among newborns of mothers who had suffered malaria during pregnancy. There are only a few references concerning the epidemiological impact of this entity in Latin-America and Colombia.</p> <p>Objective</p> <p>The aim of the study was to measure the prevalence of congenital malaria in an endemic Colombian region and to determine some of its characteristics.</p> <p>Methods</p> <p>A prospective, descriptive study was carried out in the mothers who suffered malaria during pregnancy and their newborns. Neonates were clinically evaluated at birth and screened for <it>Plasmodium spp</it>. infection by thick smear from the umbilical cord and peripheral blood, and followed-up weekly during the first 21 days of postnatal life through clinical examinations and thick smears.</p> <p>Results</p> <p>116 newborns were included in the study and 80 umbilical cord samples were obtained. Five cases of congenital infection were identified (four caused by <it>P. vivax </it>and one by <it>P. falciparum</it>), two in umbilical cord blood and three in newborn peripheral blood. One case was diagnosed at birth and the others during follow-up. Prevalence of congenital infection was 4.3%. One of the infected newborns was severely ill, while the others were asymptomatic and apparently healthy. The mothers of the newborns with congenital malaria had been diagnosed with malaria in the last trimester of pregnancy or during delivery, and also presented placental infection.</p> <p>Conclusions</p> <p>Congenital malaria may be a frequent event in newborns of mothers who have suffered malaria during pregnancy in Colombia. An association was found between congenital malaria and the diagnosis of malaria in the mother during the last trimester of pregnancy or during delivery, and the presence of placental infection.</p

High Density Polyethylene Tanks combined with wood staves during red wine ageing

Mestrado em Engenharia de Viticultura e Enologia. Universidade de Lisboa, Instituto Superior de Agronomia. Universidade do PortoThe study involves the evolution of wine in four high density polyethylene (HDPE) tanks and one in a stainless-steel tank used as the control one. The HDPE tanks have three different types of permeability: low, medium and high permeability to oxygen. Inside of these containers were placed French wood (Quercus petraea) staves respectively in the low, medium and high permeable tanks, while the fourth medium permeable tank presents no staves in it. These particular tanks, which are permeable to oxygen plus the addition of wooden staves are used to mimic the wine ageing in wood barrels. The tanks were compared to a stainless-steel tank to confront the evolution of the phenolic structure and colour of wine during the month of ageing. The wine under test was produced from grapes harvested in 2020 and, after the vinification process, the treatment started in March 2021. During the experiment, wine analyses were conducted on the following parameters: colour, pigments and phenolic compounds (flavonols, flavanols, anthocyanins) by means of a spectrophotometer. Periodic analyses were also conducted on SO₂, volatile acidity and pH values. Wines in the high-density polyethylene tanks with wood presence showed a better evolution in phenolic composition compared to the stainless-steel tanks. Therefore, differences between the HDPE were observed depending on their permeability. Supposedly high-density polyethylene may be a valid alternative to the use of wood barrels which allows a good ageing development, reducing maintenance costs and also environmental impact. Ageing wine in HDPE tanks could ideally become a complementary practice to barrel ageing, thus limiting the use of this raw material.Este estudo pretendeu avaliar a evolução da composição fenólica e da cor, ao longo de seis meses, de um mesmo vinho colocado em recipientes/ depósitos de polietileno de alta densidade (HDPE). A três dos recipientes, de baixa, média e alta porosidade ao oxigénio, respectivamente, foram adicionadas aduelas de madeira de carvalho francês (Quercus petraea). Ao quarto recipiente, de média porosidade ao oxigénio, não foi adicionada madeira. Os recipientes HDPE, em conjunto com as aduelas de madeira, foram utilizados para simular o envelhecimento do vinho em barricas. Paralelamente avaliou-se a evolução do mesmo vinho armazenado em depósito de inox. O vinho armazenado nos recipientes HDPE apresentou uma maior evolução dos compostos fenólicos comparativamente ao vinho armazenado no depósito de inox. Também foram observadas diferenças evidentes entre os vinhos armazenados nos diferentes HDPE`s, em função da sua permeabilidade. Os resultados das análises espectrofotométricas da composição fenólica mostraram diferenças em relação a alguns parâmetros, a saber, a quantidade de fenóis não flavonóides, a quantidade total de compostos fenólicos, a cor das antocianinas devido à copigmentação, as antocianinas totais e o grau de ionização das antocianinas. Além disso, os resultados mostraram que os recipientes HDPE podem ser uma boa tecnologia alternativa em relação ao uso das barricas de madeira, o que permite que o vinho sofra um grande envelhecimento, garantindo alta qualidade e reduzindo os custos de envelhecimento em barris. O ideal seria que o envelhecimento do vinho em tanques HDPE se tornasse uma prática complementar ao envelhecimento em pipas, limitando assim a utilização desta matéria-prima.N/
