    [ES] La violencia ha sido considerada uno de los grandes ejes que explican el devenir de la humanidad desde los comienzos de la ciencia historiográfica. Nos repele y nos atrae, deseamos olvidarla pero no debemos dejar que caiga en el olvido, aparenta estar ligada a momentos históricos concretos pero atraviesa nuestro día a día… Quizás por estas razones la violencia, en todas sus posibles manifestaciones, lejos de ser un tema obsoleto, continúa teniendo un gran potencial como cuestión historiográfica, tal y como muestran las investigaciones que conforman este libro. De la mano de diferentes especialistas, y en un recorrido que va desde la Prehistoria hasta la Edad Contemporánea, este volumen colectivo analiza las violencias históricas desde la antropología física, la historia militar, la iconografía, o la historia de la infancia entre otros puntos de vista. Guerras, conflictos políticos y religiosos y sus significados simbólicos, o la violencia como espectáculo son algunas de las cuestiones que abordan sus páginas. Si bien existen pocos temas que hayan sido más estudiados por la historiografía que la violencia, este libro, fruto del Congreso Internacional La Violencia en la Historia, celebrado en la Universidad de Salamanca en octubre de 2019, es una muestra de que las preguntas históricas nunca se agotan y de que las violencias pasadas deben seguir siendo revisitadas desde nuevos enfoques

Compared to the conventional time-triggered sampling paradigm, the control solution is able to considerably reduce network utilization (number of transmissions), while retaining a satisfactory control performance. Stability for the proposed WNCS is ensured using linear matrix inequalities. Simulation results show the main benefits of the control approach, which are experimentally validated by means of an unmanned-aerial-vehicle-based test-bed platform.This work was supported in part by the European Commission as part of Project H2020-SEC-2016-2017-Topic: SEC-20-BES-2016 (Id: 740736)-"C2 Advanced Multi-domain Environment and Live Observation Technologies," in part by the European Regional Development Fund as part of OPZuid 2014-2020 under the Drone Safety Cluster project, in part by the Innovational Research Incentives Scheme under the VICI Grant "Wireless control systems: A new frontier in automation" (No. 11382) awarded by The Netherlands Organization for Scientific Research Applied and Engineering Sciences, and in part by the Ministerio de Economia y Competitividad, Spain, under Project FPU15/02008.Cuenca, Á.; Antunes, D.; Castillo-Frasquet, A.; García Gil, PJ.; Asadi Khashooei, B.; Heemels, W.

    Group 4 metal complexes containing the di(tert-butyl)cyclopentadienyl ligand (l,3-tBu2-r/5-CsH3) have been synthesized. The\ud reaction of a mixture of 1,3- and 1,4-di(tert-butyl)cyclopentadiene isomers with KH in THF at -78°C gives the salt K+[(1,3 -\ud tBu2CsH3)]-(THF)I_3 2 as a white solid. Treatment of 2 with chlorotrimethylsilane in a 1:1 molar ratio gives the air-stable\ud trimethylsilylcyclopentadienyl derivative Si(1,3-tBu2C5H3XCH3)3 3. The silyl derivative 3 is an excellent precursor for monocyclopentadienyl\ud trichlorotitanium and zirconium compounds M(1,3 -t Bu 2-r/5-C 5 H 3)C13 [M = Ti (4), Zr (5)]. Addition of a stoichiometric amount\ud of water in the presence of NEt 3 to a toluene solution of 4 affords the oxo trimer compound [Ti(1,3-tBu2-~75 - CsH3)CI( p,-O)] 3 6. The\ud reaction of 4 with 2 equiv, of LiMe affords the chloro dimethyl derivative Ti(1,3-tBu2-'r/5-CsH3)CI(CH3)2 7. The mixed dicyclopentadienyl\ud compounds M(1,3-tBu2-r/5-CsH3XCsHs)CI2 [M = Ti (8); Zr (9)] were prepared by reaction of complexes 4 and 5 respectively with\ud TI(CsHs). Treatment of complexes (8) and (9) with the appropriate alkylating reagent and molar ratio, in hexane at -78 °C, gives the\ud chloro alkyl derivatives M(1,3-tBu2-@-C5H3XCsHs)CIR [M = Ti, R = Me (10); M = Zr, R = Me (11), Bz (12)] or the dialkyl\ud complexes M(1,3-tBu2-@-CsH3)(CsHs)Rz [M = Ti, R = Me (13); M = Zr, R = Me (14), Bz (15), Nf (16)]. When 8 reacts with 2 equiv.\ud of MgBz2(THF) 2 or LiCH2CMe2Ph the metallacyclic complexes Ti(1-tBu-3-CMe2CH~-r/5-C~Ha)(CsHs)R [R = Bz (17); Nf (18)] were\ud isolated as red oils at room temperature, with the elimination of toluene or ten-butyl benzene respectively. The previously reported\ud cationic mono 1,3-di(tert-butyl)cyclopentadienyl dibenzyl zirconium species [Zr(1,3 -t Bu 2-'05-C 5 H 3 XCH 2 Ph) 2 ] + (19) can be stabilized\ud by reaction with tBuNC or PMe 3, in CD2C12 at -78°C, and the formation of the new cationic species [Zr(1,3-tBu2-r/5-\ud CsHa)(L)(CH2Ph)2] + [L=tBuNC (20); PMe 3 (21)] was identified by NMR spectroscopy. The reaction of B(CrFs) 3 with the\ud monocyclopentadienyl trimethyl derivatives M(1,3-tBu2-r/5-CsH3XCH3)3 [M = Ti (22), Zr (23)], in the presence of PMe 3, gives the\ud cationic species [M(I,3-tBu2-@-C~H3)(PMe3)2(CH3)2] + [M = Ti (24); Zr (25)], obtained as orange-yellow solids, stable at room\ud temperature. The reaction of B(C6Fs) 3 with the metallocene dimethyl derivatives M(1,3-tBu2-r/5-CsHa)(@-CsHs)(CH3)z [M = Zr (14);\ud Hf (26)], in a 1:1 molar ratio and in hydrocarbon solvents gives the cationic derivatives [M(1,3-tBu2-@-CsH3)(@ -\ud CsHsXCH3)]+[(CH3)B(CrFs)3] - [M = Zr (27); Hf (28)] as yellow oils which can be stored for weeks under an inert atmosphere. When\ud the same reactions of (14) and (26) with B(C6Fs) 3 are carried out in a 2:1 molar ratio at room temperature, the complexes\ud {[M(1,3-tBu2-@-CsH3X@-CsH5)Me]2(/.L-Me)}[MeB(C6Fs)3] [M =Zr (29), Hf (30)] can be obtained as a mixture of syn- and\ud anti-isomers as shown by NMR spectroscopic observations. The formation of (29) and (30) implies the stabilization of the 14-electron\ud cationic intermediate by interaction with one methyl group of the neutral complexes (14) and (26). Complexes (27) and (28) undergo\ud heterolytic dissociation of the Metal-MeB(C6Fs) 3 bonds, leading to the formation of the free [M(I,3-tBu2-r/5-CsH3)(r/5-CsHs)(CH3)] +\ud 14-electron species, verified by 1H DNMR spectroscopy. When compound (27) was heated at 50°C the metallacyclic cation\ud [Zr(1-tBu-3-CMezCH2-@-C5H3)(@-CsHs)] + (31) was formed. The alkyl derivatives synthesized and reported herein, activated with MAO, B(C6Fs) 3 or [Ph3C][B(C6Fs)4], polymerize ethylene with very low activity. The molecular structure of [Ti(1,3-tBu2-r/5-\ud C5H3)C1(/x-O)] 3 6 has been determined by X-ray diffraction methods.Financial support for this research by DGICYT (Project PB92-0178C) is gratefully acknowledged.

    [Abstract] OBJECTIVES: The enlargement of the left atrium has been identified as a marker of chronically increased left ventricular filling pressure and left ventricular diastolic dysfunction. This study aims to evaluate the association of indexed left atrial diameter with stroke, cardiovascular mortality, the combined event, and all-cause mortality in patients who underwent aortic valve surgery. METHODS: Indexed left atrial diameter was measured in 2011 adult patients (mean age, 70.9 ± 10.8 years; 58.7% were men) who underwent aortic valve surgery between January 2008 and March 2016. RESULTS: On the basis of the criteria of the American Society of Echocardiography, indexed left atrial diameter was normal in 64% of patients, mildly enlarged in 12.4% of patients, moderately enlarged in 9.2% of patients, and severely enlarged in 14.3% of patients. Over a mean follow-up period of 3.2 ± 2.1 years, there were 334 deaths and 97 strokes. Cardiovascular mortality survival at 5 years among patients with normal, mild, moderate, and severe left atrial enlargement was 91.6%, 86.8%, 77.9%, and 77.4%, respectively (P < .001). After covariable adjustment, Cox regression analysis showed indexed left atrial diameter as an independent predictor of all-cause mortality (hazard ratio per 1-cm/m2 increment, 1.545; 95% confidence interval, 1.252-1.906, P < .001), cardiovascular death (hazard ratio per 1-cm/m2 increment, 1.971; 95% confidence interval, 1.541-2.520; P < .001), and the combined event (hazard ratio per 1-cm/m2 increment, 1.673; 95% confidence interval, 1.321-2.119; P < .001). CONCLUSIONS: Indexed left atrial diameter is a strong predictor of long-term outcomes in patients with aortic valve diseases who undergo surgery

    The work was carried out in three dairy farms, (Self-consumption of the Santa Clara Livestock Company, Ofelia and Niña Bonita) of the state sector of the municipality of Santa Clara that have manual milking with support of the calf and the cows in production are mostly of the Siboney mestizo race with an average age of four years. A total of 568 milk samples were collected from each individual room of presumably healthy animals as established in Cuban Standard 78-25 (1987). To determine the electrical conductivity and salts, pH and Redox Potential. In addition, the California Mastitis Test was performed. (C.M.T) according to Cuban Standard 78-11-17 (1986) to detect the possible degrees of reaction of subclinical mastitis, comparing said technique with electrical conductivity (E.C), pH and Redox Potential. The data obtained were processed by using Excel, the statistical model Stargraphy Plus. 4.1 for Window. According to the statistical results obtained, a positive correlation was evidenced between the California Mastitis Test (C.M.T) technique, in relation to the electrical conductivity tests, pH and salts, while no correlation was found between the C.M.T and the Redox Potential. There was a correlation between the values ​​of electrical conductivity and the salts, however, no correlation was found between the pH and Redox Potential values.El trabajo se realizó en tres vaquerías, (Autoconsumo de la Empresa Pecuaria Santa Clara, la Ofelia y Niña Bonita) del sector estatal del municipio de Santa Clara que poseen ordeño manual con apoyo del ternero y las vacas en producción son en su mayoría de la raza mestizo Siboney con una edad promedio de cuatro años. Se recopilaron un total de 568 muestras de leche de cada cuarto individual de animales presuntamente sanos según lo establecido en la Norma Cubana 78-25 (1987). Para determinar la conductividad eléctrica y sales, pH y Potencial Redox. Además, se realizó la prueba de California Mastitis Test. (C.M.T) según Norma Cubana 78-11-17 (1986) para detectar los posibles grados de reacción de la mastitis subclínica, comparándose dicha técnica con la conductividad eléctrica (E.C), el pH y el Potencial Redox. Los datos obtenidos fueron procesados por con Excel, el modelo estadístico Stargraphy Plus. 4.1 para Window. De acuerdo con los resultados estadísticos obtenidos se evidenció una correlación positiva entre la técnica California Mastitis Test (C.M.T), en relación con las pruebas conductividad eléctrica, pH y las sales, mientras que no se comprobó correlación entre la C.M.T y el Potencial Redox. Se constató correlación entre los valores de conductividad eléctrica y las sales, sin embargo entre los valores de pH y Potencial Redox no se encontró ninguna correlación
