MANEJO DEL RIEGO Y ABONADO EN EL CULTIVO DE LA PATATA EN LA COSTA NOROESTE DE CÁDIZ

[ES] Desde el Sistema de Asistencia al Regante del Instituto de Investigación y Formación Agraria y Pesquera de Andalucía (IFAPA) en el Centro de Chipiona (Cádiz), se está desarrollando una labor de experimentación de cultivos hortícolas al aire libre. En esta línea se están ensayando cultivos para evaluar la eficiencia del riego y abonado nitrogenado. El objetivo final de estos ensayos es generar unas recomendaciones de riego y fertirrigación útiles para el sector. El cultivo de la patata es un cultivo muy extendido en la zona de Costa Noroeste de Andalucía, por su precocidad en la comarca. El objetivo general del ensayo es determinar de todos los posibles manejos de riego y abonado, cual es la opción más eficiente y más productiva. Para ello se ha utilizado tres dosis de riego, una sobre las necesidades potenciales de agua, otra por encima y otra por debajo, la primera de ellas con manejo dos métodos de riego: aspersión y goteo. Además cada una de estas estrategias con dos dosis distintas de abonado. Y todo ello replicado en dos parcelas de distintos suelos. El resultado general de todo el abanico de posibilidades ha sido que está muy influenciado del tipo de suelo. Para un suelo más equilibrado el abonado determina mucho más los buenos resultados y con dosis de riego más justas el del abonado es muy determinante. Sin embargo en parcelas de suelo arenoso la dosis de riego en el rendimiento es determinante, pero la variable abonado influye en menor medida en el rendimiento y menos cuando la dosis de riego es más alta, induciéndose a regar con riegos con una mayor frecuencia a la diaria.Salvatierra Bellido, B.; Márquez Ruiz, A.; Luque Sánchez, S.; Nieto Martínez, A.; Acosta Galán, J.

Disnea progresiva en varón de 47 años

We report the case of a 47 year old male whose cardinal symptom was progressive dyspnea. We describe the diag- nostic process highlighting the usefulness of pulmonary and cardiac ultrasound. We stress the importance in this patient to take into account their personal history (Hodgkin’s lymphoma treated more than 10 years earlier) and the finding of a left bundle branch block in the electrocardiogram.Presentamos el caso de un varón de 47 años cuyo síntoma cardinal era la disnea progresiva. Describimos su proceso diagnóstico destacando la utilidad de la ecografía pulmonar y cardíaca. Resaltamos la importancia en este enfermo de tener en cuenta sus antecedentes (linfoma de Hodgkin tratado hacía más de 10 años) y el hallazgo de un bloqueo de rama izquierda en el electrocardiograma

La medicina rural: una visión mirando al futuro

The management of any large building stock with limited resources poses a problem of prioritization of refurbishment actions. Also, available technical information about the building stock is often incomplete and the process of standardization and updating is expensive and time consuming. Some public owners are developing preliminary BIM models of their stock, but they are willing to limit the complexity of the models within the lowest amount of information required for management and maintenance, so as to make that process affordable. Indeed, administrations are challenged by their duty relative to planning regular maintenance and operation of buildings, because of the legislation in force, which requires monitoring of their facilities. For the reasons stated above, this paper presents a decision support tool that can help prioritize refurbishment actions on large building assets. To this purpose, many requirements must be jointly considered in this examination, each requirement being assessed by means of one or several indicators. Then the indicators are compared one another, according to a multi-criteria approach, that weighs the several criteria and rank the assets. In order to deal with the extensive and uncertain information that must be managed in this process, indicators are estimated by means of Bayesian Networks. This tool is used first to assess the technical indicators and rank the assets, while marking any facilities not complying with regulations. Then, additional Bayesian Networks are in charge of estimating the budget needed to upgrade non-compliant facilities with minimum legislation requirements. The outcomes of this research can be used even to assess the level of detail of the information that must be included in BIM models of the stock, in fact acting as guidelines for their development. Finally, the application of the decision tool on a real test case will be presented

Strategies for GHG mitigation in Mediterranean cropping systems. A review

In this review we aimed to synthetize and analyze the most promising GHGs mitigation strategies for Mediterranean cropping systems. A description of most relevant measures, based on the best crop choice and management by farmers (i.e., agronomical practices), was firstly carried out. Many of these measures can be also efficient in other climatic regions, but here we provide particular results and discussion of their efficiencies for Mediterranean cropping systems. An integrated assessment of management practices on mitigating each component of the global warming potential (N2O and CH4 emissions and C sequestration) of production systems considering potential side-effects of their implementation allowed us to propose the best strategies to abate GHG emissions, while sustaining crop yields and mitigating other sources of environmental pollution (e.g. nitrate leaching and ammonia volatilization)

Cuerpos estereotipados, cuerpos enterrados, cuerpos representados, cuerpos cambiantes. Una aproximación panorámica desde la arqueología feminista

En este trabajo abordamos distintas vías de aproximación a las identidades corporales femeninas y a su agencia, desde una perspectiva transversal, tomando como referencia algunos casos de estudio procedentes de contextos seleccionados de la prehistoria y protohistoria de la península ibérica, así como del Mediterráneo Antiguo. Tres ejes principales ordenarán este acercamiento: en primer lugar, una reflexión sobre los estereotipos de las imágenes de la prehistoria, que han generado modelos comprensivos sobre el pasado que están profundamente distorsionados; en segundo lugar, el estudio de las identidades corporales, a través del análisis de los cuerpos depositados y representados en distintos casos seleccionados y, por último, una mirada desde la bioarqueología sobre el rol, los cuidados y las transformaciones de los cuerpos femeninos contextualizados en su propio ciclo vital. Esta reflexión colectiva nos permite ofrecer una puesta al día aproximativa a las líneas de investigación que, desde el grupo Pastwomen, desarrollamos en relación con el estudio de las corporalidades en el pasado, como base analítica fundamental para profundizar en los comportamientos sociales y en la construcción de las identidades colectivas. Pero, también, para la generación de nuevas narrativas y de un imaginario del pasado, colectivo e inclusivo, basado en la investigación rigurosa. In this paper we present a number of approaches to the issue of female corporeal identities and their agency. Employing a traverse perspective, we focus on a variety of prehistoric and protohistoric case studies from the Iberian Peninsula as well as from the ancient Mediterranean in general. Our proposal follows three principal lines of research: first, we reflect on the stereotypical images of prehistory which have produced profoundly distorted models of the past. Second, we examine the question of corporeal identities based on a group of selected burials. Finally, using bioarchaeological data, the third line is a comprehensive overview of social status, level of care, and visible changes in female bodies within the context of their specific life cycle. We offer a general reflection which allows us to present the current state of research that has been undertaken by the group Past Women. This covers the study of corporeal identities in the past as a fundamental analytical basis to analyze social behavior and the construction of collective identities. It also helps generate new narratives, collective and inclusive, based on rigorous research

Ofrendas en el humedal: el santuario ibero de Haza del Rayo (Sabiote, Jaén)

We present a new Iberian sanctuary situated on the hill known as La Loma de Úbeda (Jaén), located at a key connecting point between the Guadalquivir and Guadalimar valleys. It is an open-air site with a 3rd century BCE votive deposit. A large part of the interest in this case study lies in the application of a strongly interdisciplinary protocol which combines archaeological excavations, systematic magnetic micro-surveying and combined analyses (soil micromorphology, pollen and phytolith analyses, OSL datings, 3D groundpenetrating radar studies and metallographic analysis). This protocol has made it possible to document the ritual dynamics involving this small area of paleo-wetland. The site is placed at a key point on the ritual itinerary between the town of Baecula (Santo Tomé, Jaén) and the sanctuary of La Cueva de la Lobera in Castellar (Jaén). The present study reveals the complexity of the religious landscapes in a territory similar to that of Cástulo (Linares, Jaén) in the 4th and 3rd centuries BCE, in which the natural landmarks with strong specific cultural significances played an important role.Damos a conocer el hallazgo de un santuario ibero, situado en la Loma de Úbeda (Jaén), en un punto clave de conexión entre los valles del Guadalquivir y del Guadalimar, definido como un espacio al aire libre, al que se asocia un depósito votivo del siglo III a. n. e. El interés de este estudio de caso radica en la aplicación de un protocolo fuertemente interdisciplinar, que parte de excavaciones arqueológicas, microprospecciones magnéticas sistemáticas y análisis combinados (micromorfología de suelos, análisis de polen y fitolitos, dataciones, estudios geo-radar 3D y análisis metalográficos). Este protocolo ha permitido documentar la dinámica ritual que involucra a una pequeña área de paleo-humedal, así como su caracterización general. Este espacio, definido como un punto clave en el itinerario ritual que parte de la ciudad de Baecula (Santo Tomé, Jaén) y se dirige al santuario de la Cueva de la Lobera en Castellar (Jaén), nos sitúa ante la complejidad de los paisajes religiosos en un territorio como el de Cástulo (Linares, Jaén) para los siglos IV-III a. n. e., en los que cobra importancia la incorporación de hitos naturales con significados culturales muy específicos

Hereditary renal adysplasia, pulmonary hypoplasia and Mayer-Rokitansky-Küster-Hauser (MRKH) syndrome: a case report

<p>Abstract</p> <p>Background</p> <p>Hereditary renal adysplasia is an autosomal dominant trait with incomplete penetrance and variable expression that is usually associated with malformative combinations (including Müllerian anomalies) affecting different mesodermal organs such as the heart, lung, and urogenital system.</p> <p>Case report</p> <p>A case showing pulmonary hypoplasia, hip dysplasia, hereditary renal adysplasia, and Mayer-Rokitansky-Kuster-Hauser syndrome in adulthood is reported here. The i.v. pyelography showed right renal agenesis with a normal left kidney and ureter. Ultrasound and Magnetic Resonance Imaging also showed right renal agenesis with multicystic embryonary remnants in the right hemipelvis probably corresponding to a dysgenetic kidney. An uretrocystoscopy showed absence of ectopic ureter and of the right hemitrigone. She was scheduled for a diagnostic laparoscopy and creation of a neovagina according to the McIndoe technique with a prosthesis and skin graft. Laparoscopy confirmed the absence of the uterus. On both sides, an elongated, solid, rudimentary uterine horn could be observed. Both ovaries were also elongated, located high in both abdominal flanks and somewhat dysgenetics. A conventional cytogenetic study revealed a normal female karyotype 46, XX at a level of 550 GTG bands. A CGH analysis was performed using a 244K oligoarray CGH detecting 11 copy number variants described as normal variants in the databases. The 17q12 and 22q11.21 microdeletions described in other MRKH patients were not present in this case. Four years after operation her evolution is normal, without symptoms and the neovagina is adequately functional. The geneticists have studied her family history and the pedigree of the family is shown.</p> <p>Conclusions</p> <p>We suggest that primary damage to the mesoderm (paraaxil, intermediate, and lateral) caused by mutations in a yet unidentified gene is responsible for: 1) skeletal dysplasia, 2) inappropriate interactions between the bronchial mesoderm and endodermal lung bud as well as between the blastema metanephric and ureteric bud, and eventually 3) Müllerian anomalies (peritoneal mesothelium) at the same level. These anomalies would be transmitted as an autosomal dominant trait with incomplete penetrance and variable expressivity.</p

Strategies for greenhouse gas emissions mitigation in Mediterranean agriculture: A review

[EN] An integrated assessment of the potential of different management practices for mitigating specific components of the total GHG budget (N2O and CH4 emissions and C sequestration) of Mediterranean agrosystems was performed in this study. Their suitability regarding both yield and environmental (e.g. nitrate leaching and ammonia volatilization) sustainability, and regional barriers and opportunities for their implementation were also considered. Based on its results best strategies to abate GHG emissions in Mediterranean agro-systems were proposed. Adjusting N fertilization to crop needs in both irrigated and rain-fed systems could reduce N2O emissions up to 50% compared with a non-adjusted practice. Substitution of N synthetic fertilizers by solid manure can be also implemented in those systems, and may abate N2O emissions by about 20% under Mediterranean conditions, with additional indirect benefits associated to energy savings and positive effects in crop yields. The use of urease and nitrification inhibitors enhances N use efficiency of the cropping systems and may mitigate N2O emissions up to 80% and 50%, respectively. The type of irrigation may also have a great mitigation potential in the Mediterranean region. Drip-irrigated systems have on average 80% lower N2O emissions than sprinkler systems and drip-irrigation combined with optimized fertilization showed a reduction in direct N2O emissions up to 50%. Methane fluxes have a relatively small contribution to the total GHG budget of Mediterranean crops, which can mostly be controlled by careful management of the water table and organic inputs in paddies. Reduced soil tillage, improved management of crop residues and agro-industry by-products, and cover cropping in orchards, are the most suitable interventions to enhance organic C stocks in Mediterranean agricultural soils. The adoption of the proposed agricultural practices will require farmers training. The global analysis of life cycle emissions associated to irrigation type (drip, sprinkle and furrow) and N fertilization rate (100 and 300 kg N ha(-1) yr(-1)) revealed that these factors may outweigh the reduction in GHG emissions beyond the plot scale. The analysis of the impact of some structural changes on top-down mitigation of GHG emissions revealed that 3-15% of N2O emissions could be suppressed by avoiding food waste at the end-consumer level. A 40% reduction in meat and dairy consumption could reduce GHG emissions by 20-30%. Reintroducing the Mediterranean diet (i.e. similar to 35% intake of animal protein) would therefore result in a significant decrease of GHG emissions from agricultural production systems under Mediterranean conditions.
