Vínculos y redes de poder entre Madrid y La Habana: Francisco Arango y Parreño (1765-1837), ideólogo y mediador

In 1788 the presence in Madrid of the Cuban Francisco Arango y Parreño launched reciprocal exchanges between Spain and Cuba which lasted for the most part of the 19th Century. This article studies the social dimension of Arango’s activities through his integration in a La Habanasettled family with presence and projection in Madrid, which set up a network of relations and useful friendship at the upper levels of power. Research has been made in the Archivo Histórico Nacional and in the Archivo Histórico de Protocolos Notariales de Madrid.La presencia en Madrid en 1788 del cubano Francisco Arango y Parreño sancionó un proceso de reciprocidad entre España y Cuba que permaneció durante buena parte del siglo XIX. Este estudio nos aproxima a la dimensión social de las actividades de Arango, a partir de su integración en una familia afincada en La Habana pero con presencia y proyección en Madrid y forjador de una red de relaciones y amistades útiles en las altas instancias del poder.

Simple and non-charged long-lived fluorescent intracellular organelle trackers

In this work we evaluated by FLIM microscopy the preferential accumulation of long-lived acridone derivatives in mitochondria and lysosomes, based on a new concept of non-protonable and non-charged groups carriers. Thus, thiophene ring has been proved to act as mithocondria carrier whereas pyridine derivative is preferentially accumulated into lisosomes.Ministerio de Economía y Competitividad for funding (CTQ2017-85454-C2-1-P and CTQ2017-85658-R).Junta de AndalucíaMinisterio de Economía y Competitivida

Adjuvant Effect of Titanium Brushes in Peri-Implant Surgical Treatment: A Systematic Review

Background: the prognosis of peri-implant surgery can be affected by poor decontamination of the implant surface, which could be improved with the use of titanium brushes. The objectives of this systematic review were to evaluate the effectiveness of titanium brushes in the decontamination of the implant surface in terms of plaque index, probing depth, bleeding on probing and bone loss/gain; as well as its effectiveness according to the type of peri-implant bone defect. Methods: an electronic search was carried out in the PubMed, Scopus, Cochrane and Embase databases, as well as a manual search. The search strategy included four keywords: “Peri-implantitis”, “Periimplantitis”, “Implant Surface Decontamination” and “Titanium Brush”. Randomized controlled studies published in the last 10 years were included and systematic reviews, in vitro studies and animal studies were excluded. Results: 142 references were found, from which only four articles met the inclusion criteria. All of the studies included in the present review reported beneficial results in terms of probing depth, gingival index and radiographic bone loss and gain after implant surface decontamination adjuvated by titanium brushes. Conclusions: titanium rotary brushes show improvements in the evolution and prognosis of peri-implant surgery, although more long-term studies are needed to draw more solid conclusionsOdontologí
