Familia, poder y culto a Melqart gaditano
Este artículo analiza la relación no causal entre el templo de Melqart gaditano y la consolidación en el poder político de distintas familias y personajes vinculados a la historia gaditana tanto en época republicana como en el período imperial. Se observa su interesada emulación de Hércules y la instrumentalización de su culto como protector familiar. Como consecuencia de esta relación la antigua ciudad fenicia obtendría una serie de beneficios y favores otorgados por aquellos que lograron posiciones de privilegio en el ejercicio del poder._____________________________Lobjectif ici visé est la relation entre le sanctuaire de Melqart a Gades et la consolidation
du pouvoir politique entre les mains des families et des personnes qui ont eu
participation á l'histoire gadítaine aussi bien a l'époque républicaine qu'á la periode
impériale. Il a été possible d'observer une intéressée imitatio Herculis et la manipulation
du dieu en tant que protecteur de la famille. La conséquence de ces rapports sont les
bénéfices et les faveurs cueillis par la cité phénicienne qui auront été octroyés par tous
ces qui ont acquís des positions privílégiées dans l'exercise du pouvoir

The relationship between public and private bicycle use: the case of Seville
Despite the success achieved by Public Bicycle Sharing Systems (PBSS) across the world, several researchers provide evidence on their limitations and constraints in a medium-long term, and bicycle ownership may be considered as a complementary tool to promote a 'bicycle-culture'. This paper aims to cover the gap about the interaction between both systems (public bicycle / private bicycle) and which are the key aspects to explain the bicycle-buying decision. After a fieldwork based on surveys conducted in Seville (Spain), one of the cities currently acknowledged worldwide for its successful policy of promoting cycling, we apply a Discrete Choice Model. Our findings show that among the socio-demographic factors that favor the move from the PBSS to the private bicycle are: having a higher level of education, being more progressive ideologically-speaking, and being a resident of the city itself; while age and gender do not appear to be conclusive. Experienced users, for whom the bicycle is a part of his /her healthy lifestyle, state a greater willingness to buy a bicycle. And the main obstacles to make the jump from the PBSS to the private bicycle, and that any action plan to support private bicycle usage should take into account, are: the lack of proper parking at the origin/destination, and fear of theft
Measuring the LCC effect on charter airlines in the Spanish airport system
Using a robust transfer function model methodology, the present paper seeks to offer empirical evidence regarding the size and type of effects that low-cost carriers (LCCs) have had on traffic for charter carriers (CCs) in the Spanish airport system by geographic market. We show an unmistakable substitution relationship between CCs and LCCs in the latter’s typical niche markets, national and European flights, while there is no reaction from the CCs in the segment of international flights outside the EU. Furthermore, substitution effects are smaller between CCs and LCCs on the domestic level than effects between LCCs and network carriers (NCs) and slightly larger on the European level. Lastly, CC traffic’s different sensitivity to terrorist attacks, day of the week, air accidents and the economic crisis is also evident. CCs should therefore be considered an independent category that warrants individualized analyses

El poblamiento rural fenicio en el sur de la Península Ibérica entre los siglos VI a III a.C.
En el artículo se analizan las evidencias del poblamiento rural fenicio occidental y la explotación de los recursos durante los siglos VI a III a.C. en el Sur de Iberia, entendiendo que se trata de poblamiento perteneciente a los territorios de las ciudades fenicias. Se propone una síntesis de un tema poco estudiado, a partir de una tipología de asentamientos rurales atendiendo al rango y al tamaño de los mismos, empleando la información procedente de excavaciones y prospecciones, así como los análisis arqueobotánicos.In the paper are analyzed the evidences of rural western Phoenician population and soil exploitation between 6th to 3rd centuries BC in southern Iberia, assuming that all they belonged to the political territories of western Phoenician cities. A tipology of rural settlements is proposed using range and size criteria. Archaeological surveys information and agricultural evidences from excavations, based on archaeobotanical analysis in some western Phoenician sites are used to propose a synthesis of a non well studied topic
Hypercholesterolemia — Statin Therapy — Indications, Side Effects, Common Mistakes in Handling, Last Evidence and Recommendations in Current Clinical Practice
Pharmacokinetic Aspects of Statins
Statins are the most used therapeutic group in the treatment of hypercholesterolemia and reduce the risk of cardiovascular events and mortality. Long prescription periods and their pharmacokinetic characteristics increase the possibility of interactions, especially at the metabolism level. Simvastatin, lovastatin, and atorvastatin are metabolized by CYP3A4 isoenzymes, so they will have more significant interactions than fluvastatin, pitavastatin, and rosuvastatin that require CYP2C9. The main interactions are with macrolides, azole antifungals, antiretrovirals, platelet antiaggregants, anticoagulants, oral antidiabetics, calcium channel blockers, immunosuppressants, and other hypolipidemic agents, among others. A review of all medications that are taken by patients treated with statins should be performed at each medical consultation and during all healthcare transitions
