Elaboración de cerveza de maÃz
En la actualidad la cerveza se ha caracterizado por ser un producto de alta aceptación
dentro del mercado nacional e internacional. Tradicionalmente la cerveza comercial
utiliza cebada como fuente de almidón para su producción.
La enfermedad celÃaca es una intolerancia al gluten que se encuentra en los principales
tipos de grano utilizados en la producción de cerveza. La mayorÃa se elaboran con
cebada malteada o con adición de trigo; ambos granos tienen un contenido alto
de gluten y no son aptos para celÃacos.
La cerveza es una de las cosas que más echan de menos muchos celÃacos
diagnosticados de adultos. Debido a la demanda no cubierta de este producto por
parte de un porcentaje de la población celÃaca, se investigan alternativas para
la elaboración de cerveza sin gluten de manera artesanal, qué grano conviene utilizar y
cómo solucionar los problema que se presentan en su elaboración.Fil: Drapala, Anahà Cecilia. Universidad Nacional de Cuyo. Facultad de Ciencias Aplicadas a la Industria.Fil: Hernández, Débora AnahÃ. Universidad Nacional de Cuyo. Facultad de Ciencias Aplicadas a la Industria
Humillación y Abusos en Centros de Tratamiento para uso de Drogas en Puerto Rico
Instead of receiving help from the institutions, public and private, that are supposed to safeguard their rights and ensure their bienestar, drug users in Puerto Rico are treated as merchandise without regard at all to the dignity and respect they deserve as human beings. The experiences and stories documented in this report show that in Puerto Rico they are still violating the human rights and the integrity of drug users under the guise of providing "treatment" in institutions operating mostly by organizations non-profit and faith-based, as Christian homes and Hogares CREA, Inc. These centers represent over 90% of residential programs licensed by the government. Within these centers the-post "treatment" for problematic drug use, daily acts that constitute cruel, inhuman and degraded treatment toward drug users are committed. The humillation and the threat of arbitrary and degrading punishment is our daily bread
Fishing during the early human occupations of the Atacama Desert coast : what if we standardize the data?
Altres ajuts: Acord transformatiu CRUE-CSICThis work was funded by the National Agency for Research and Development (ANID)/Beca Doctorado en el Extranjero/DOCTORADO BECAS CHILE/2018-72190047. S.R. received financial support from the Agencia Nacional de Investigación y Desarrollo (ANID, Chile), Millennium Nucleus UPWELL [Millennium Science Initiative Program UPWELL- NCN19_153].The Atacama Desert coast (18-30° S) presents one of the earliest chronologies in the South America region, whose first occupations date from ~ 13,000 cal BP. Since that time, coastal and marine resources have been a common component at sites along the littoral zone. Fish species have been particularly important, as have the fishing technologies developed and used by the coastal communities. However, even though several archaeological sites have been studied, there is no systematic macro-regional analysis of early fisheries along the Atacama Desert coast. Furthermore, differences in theoretical and methodological approaches, as well as research objectives, hinder comparisons between ichthyoarchaeological assemblages. Here, we present a comparative analysis of the Atacama Desert fish data obtained from publications and gray literature from ten archaeological sites dating from the Terminal Pleistocene to the Early Holocene. Through the standardization of contextual and ichthyoarchaeological information, we compared data using NISP, MNI, and weight to calculate fish density, richness, and ubiquity, in order to identify similarities and differences between assemblages. This exploratory approach aims to contribute to studies of fish consumption in the area, as well as proposing new methodological questions and solutions regarding data heterogeneity in archaeozoology
La violencia sexual asociada a los conflictos armados
La problemática de la violencia sexual contra niñas y mujeres -en su
condición casi exclusiva de vÃctimas- asociada a los conflictos armados se
configura como unas de las preocupaciones de la Organización de las
Naciones Unidas después de la Segunda Guerra Mundial. Sin embargo, a
pesar de los esfuerzos y los intentos de criminalizar la violencia sexual
observamos como se agudiza exponencialmente su uso por las fuerzas
militares, paramilitares e incluso por los agentes de las operaciones de
mantenimiento de la paz. Desgraciadamente, no sólo intensifica el número
de sujetos que hace uso de la violencia sexual, sino que la forma en la que se
cometen estos crÃmenes aumenta en cuanto a su crueldad y brutalidad.The problem of sexual violence against girls and women - in its almost
exclusive condition of victims - associated with armed conflicts is configured
as one of the concerns of the United Nations Organization. However, despite
the efforts and attempts to criminalize sexual violence, we observe how its
use exponentially sharpens its use by military, paramilitary forces and even
by agents of peacekeeping operations. Unfortunately, not only does it
intensify the number of subjects who use sexual violence, but the way in
which these crimes are committed increases in terms of cruelty and brutality
Ni carne ni pescado (consumo de recursos vegetales en la Prehistoria) : análisis de la variabilidad de los conjuntos fitolitológicos en contextos cazadores-recolectores /
Descripció del recurs: el 18-07-2011La ArqueologÃa de cazadores-recolectores se caracteriza aún hoy dÃa por la preeminencia de la denominada "hipótesis del hombre cazador". Ésta ha configurado un modelo de investigación caracterizado por una jerarquización a priori (no necesariamente verificada) de la potencialidad informativa de los diferentes materiales bajo estudio. En esta jerarquización, en la que la industria lÃtica presenta un rol prioritario, el análisis arqueobotánico se configura como algo accesorio. Paralelamente, el consumo de recursos vegetales resulta secundario en la interpretación histórica de los perÃodos PaleolÃtico y MesolÃtico. Además, los procesos de trabajo sobre vegetales han sido asociados tradicionalmente y de forma acrÃtica al trabajo femenino, por lo que se cree que este paradigma de investigación puede ser explicado claramente en términos del androcentrismo imperante en las ciencias sociales y humanas. Más allá de los prejuicios de tipo ideológico, se han esgrimido reiteradamente los problemas de preservación como la causa por la que la inversión de investigación arqueobotánica ha sido siempre relativamente menor en cazadores-recolectores. En este trabajo, planteado teóricamente desde una perspectiva feminista, se presenta el análisis de fitolitos como una vÃa que permite solventar este problema. La aplicación de este tipo de análisis, se encuentra en pleno desarrollo en nuestra disciplina. En este trabajo se analiza la variabilidad de los conjuntos fitolitológicos mediante la identificación de la existencia de tendencias asociadas a determinados tipos de muestras/contextos (marcadores antrópicos), mediante el desarrollo metodológico de dos áreas de análisis; • la estrategia y representatividad del conteo (análisis microscópico) • la estrategia de muestreo (etapa necesaria y especÃficamente dirigida por la encuesta arqueológica) Ambas cuestiones son exploradas mediante el análisis de muestras procedentes de varios yacimientos; • yacimientos paleolÃticos (El Mirón, Cantabria; Dzeravá Skala, Eslovaquia; Dolni Vestonice - the Brickyard y Bohunice, Chequia) • yacimiento mesolÃtico (La Bauma del Serrat del Pont, Catalunya) • yacimientos de cazadores-recolectores subactuales (Túnel VII, Argentina)Archaeological research has been deeply conditioned by the hypothesis developed, during the 60's known as "Man the Hunter". This hypothesis has configured a research model in ancient prehistory archaeology that expects the different materials under analysis to produce a differential information production in order to comprehend prehistorical life. Within this hierarchy about the informative capability of the archaeological records, lithics represent a structural axis of ancient hunter-gatherers research, while archaeobotanical studies play a secondary role. Consequently, the study of plant resources consumption has become secondary in the historical interpretation of both Palaeolithic and Mesolithic periods. Furthermore, plant resources working processes have been traditionally and acritically associated to women's work. Therefore, it is considered that this paradigm of research can be explained as another evidence of the prevailing androcentrism approach in Social and Human Sciences. On the contrary, preservation arguments have been repeatedly used for justifying a minor research effort in archaeobotanical studies. Theoretically designed from a feminist approach, this research argues that phytolith analysis, which is an application currently under development within our discipline, can be used as a way for solving this problem. Considering that it is still necessary to acquire a basic exploratory knowedge about phytolith assemblages behaviour in archaeological contexts, this research has been focused in the analysis of the variability of phytolith assemblages through the identification of tendences associated to particular kind of samples or contexts (in order to identify anthropic markers). This is carried out by means of the methodological development of two research topics: • the strategy and representativity of the counting procedure during the analysis under the microscope • the sampling strategy during the fieldwork (specifically directed towards archaeology) Both questions are explored through the analyses of samples from different sites: • palaeolithic sites (El Mirón, Cantabria; Dzeravá Skala, Slovak Republic; Dolni Vestonice - the Brickyard and Bohunice, Czech Republic) • mesolithic site (La Bauma del Serrat del Pont, Catalunya) • modern hunter-gatherer site (Túnel VII, Argentina
Exercise Addiction in the Sports Context: What Is Known and What Is Yet to Be Known
Exercise addiction (EA) involves excessive concerns for exercise routines, an abusive practice,
and the inability to control one’s own behavior, as well as the presence of psychological
processes that are typical of behavioral addictions such as abstinence. EA is further
associated with an alteration of the individual’s personal, social, and professional functioning
and a higher risk for several pathologies, including physical injury, psychological
distress, and eating disorders. The present work presents a narrative scoping review of the
state of the art and the main findings of the research on EA, with a focus in the athletic
population. The prevalence of EA risk, between 1 and 52% and up to 80% when co-occurring
with eating disturbances, is also reviewed. Additionally, some of the explanatory models
proposed to date and their power and limitations in terms of their capacity for a consensual
operationalization and characterization of EA, and thus for the optimal exploration
and management of this condition, are discussed. Finally, some deficiencies in the research
on EA are noted which are to be addressed to successfully respond to the intervention and
prevention needs that occur both in the general context of exercise-sports practice and the
specific context of competitive athletes.CRUE-CSICResearch Group CTS267 by Junta de AndalucÃa

Animal models of pediatric chronic kidney disease. Is adenine intake an appropriate model?
AbstractPediatric chronic kidney disease (CKD) has peculiar features. In particular, growth impairment is a major clinical manifestation of CKD that debuts in pediatric age because it presents in a large proportion of infants and children with CKD and has a profound impact on the self-esteem and social integration of the stunted patients. Several factors associated with CKD may lead to growth retardation by interfering with the normal physiology of growth plate, the organ where longitudinal growth rate takes place. The study of growth plate is hardly possible in humans and justifies the use of animal models. Young rats made uremic by 5/6 nephrectomy have been widely used as a model to investigate growth retardation in CKD. This article examines the characteristics of this model and analyzes the utilization of CKD induced by high adenine diet as an alternative research protocol

Bem-estar subjetivo em praticantes e não praticantes de meditação
O Bem-Estar Subjetivo (BES) é composto por Afetos Positivos (AP), Negativos (AN) e Satisfação com a Vida (SV), que se referem aos componentes afetivos e cognitivos. As práticas meditativas, incorporadas à s práticas integrativas aprovadas pelo SUS, são utilizadas para o relaxamento, incluindo alÃvio emocional e mental, e redução do estresse. Assim, este estudo procurou identificar relações entre os escores do BES e as práticas de meditação, frequência e anos de prática. Esta pesquisa foi composta por praticantes (n = 166) e não praticantes (n = 139), os quais responderam a Escala de Bem-Estar Subjetivo. Obteve-se como resultado três modelos preditivos, indicando que os praticantes de meditação obtiveram maiores Ãndices em AP e SV, bem como menores Ãndices em AN. Também observaram-se efeitos significativos e positivos da frequência e anos de prática sobre o BES. Em suma, os resultados obtidos podem indicar haver evidências de que as práticas de meditação possuem efeitos sobre o BES dos indivÃduos
