    El trabajo trata sobre la implementación de una torre ligero-protegida con un cañón automático y un periscopio independiente para el jefe de vehículo sobre el URO VAMTAC-ST5. El estudio de este prototipo se basa en la necesidad del Regimiento de Caballería «Lusitania» N.º 8 por encontrar un vehículo capaz de ser aerolanzable y, al mismo tiempo, poder cumplir con los cometidos doctrinales de la Caballería: vigilancia, reconocimiento y protección. De este modo, el trabajo persigue, como objetivo, proponer una torre de entre las distintas alternativas del mercado actual. Para ello, primero se selecciona el calibre que debe tener su cañón y posteriormente, se propone el posible prototipo que solvente las vicisitudes planteadas.<br /

    Study Objectives: To characterize sleep duration, timing and continuity measures in pregnancy and their association with key demographic variables. Methods: Multisite prospective cohort study. Women enrolled in the nuMoM2b study (nulliparous women with a singleton gestation) were recruited at the second study visit (16-21 weeks of gestation) to participate in the Sleep Duration and Continuity substudy. Women <18 years of age or with pregestational diabetes or chronic hypertension were excluded from participation. Women wore a wrist activity monitor and completed a sleep log for 7 consecutive days. Time in bed, sleep duration, fragmentation index, sleep efficiency, wake after sleep onset, and sleep midpoint were averaged across valid primary sleep periods for each participant. Results: Valid data were available from 782 women with mean age of 27.3 (5.5) years. Median sleep duration was 7.4 hours. Approximately 27.9% of women had a sleep duration of 9 hours. In multivariable models including age, race/ethnicity, body mass index, insurance status, and recent smoking history, sleep duration was significantly associated with race/ethnicity and insurance status, while time in bed was only associated with insurance status. Sleep continuity measures and sleep midpoint were significantly associated with all covariates in the model, with the exception of age for fragmentation index and smoking for wake after sleep onset. Conclusions: Our results demonstrate the relationship between sleep and important demographic characteristics during pregnancy
