Content of Capsaicinoids and Physicochemical Characteristics of Manzano Hot Pepper Grown in Greenhouse

The hotness of the chili fruit (Capsicum spp.) is mainly due to the presence of capsaicinoids (capsaicin, nordihydrocapsaicin and dihydrocapsaicin). The aim of the present research was to evaluate the content of capsaicinoids and characteristics of physicochemical quality in fruits of manzano hot pepper grown in the greenhouse. The experimental design used was completely randomized with 3 and 4 replications. The parameters evaluated were total capsaicinoids, vitamin C, total carotenoids (TC), total soluble solids (TSS), titratable acidity, pH, firmness and color of the fruit. Among the hybrids with the highest content of total capsaicinoids and vitamin C, L4XL8 and L5XL7 (27 371 and 21 700 SHU, respectively) stand out as well as L2XL5 with 809.35 mg 100 g-1. On the other hand, L2XL3 stood out for its TC content (1 515.98 μg 100 g-1); L2XL7 and L4Xl7 stood out for the concentration of TSS, maintaining the acidity level without major changes. Additionally, L7XL8 was a material that was characterized to have fruits with greater firmness (2.31 N) and chromaticity of color (intense yellow) of 72.96. Among the evaluated hybrids, there are materials that presented fruits with physical and chemical characteristics of quality, which could be considered important from the commercial point of view or genetic improvement

Stop Hypertension with SLP/UCM I

El Proyecto Stop Hipertensión con ApS/UCM pretende aportar nuestro granito de arena a la lucha contra la hipertensión arterial (HTA), utilizando una herramienta educativa de aprendizaje en servicio (ApS), que permita a los estudiantes de los Grados en ciencias de la salud de la UCM aprender a la vez que realizan un servicio público. La hipertensión arterial (HTA) es un problema de salud pública y un importante factor de riesgo de padecer enfermedades cardiovasculares (ECV). Su diagnóstico está determinado por la medida de la presión arterial (PA) por lo que es de extrema importancia asegurar una medida fiable y válida. La automedida de la PA (AMPA) consiste en la medida de la PA por el propio paciente o un familiar, habitualmente en su domicilio, y es una herramienta útil para el diagnóstico y control de la HTA. Pero ¿sabemos medirnos de forma correcta la PA? ¿Usamos bien los tensiómetros? ¿Sabemos interpretar los registros de la PA y cuándo consultar al médico? Realizar AMPA correctamente no es fácil y exige un esfuerzo extraordinario de recursos humanos y económicos por parte de los profesionales de Atención Primaria. Por ello son necesarias nuevas estrategias para capacitar a la población en AMPA. Con este Proyecto nos proponemos luchar contra la HTA a través de la metodología educativa de aprendizaje-servicio que combina objetivos académicos con el servicio comunitario. El alumnado de los grados de Ciencias de la Salud de la UCM forman a la población en la correcta AMPA, asesorándoles sobre el uso correcto de los tensiómetros, enseñándoles a interpretar los resultados y alertándoles de cuándo acudir al médico. En el curso 2022-2023, el servicio público se ha dirigido principalmente al colectivo de mayores por ser especialmente vulnerables a padecer ECV en los Ayuntamientos de Coslada, Alcobendas y Alcorcón, y en las residencias Afanias y Neurovida, y a la población general que acuda a la Facultad durante la Semana de la Ciencia CAM/UCM 2022, a la Feria de la Salud de Coslada y a la campaña contra la HTA de la UCM junto con el Servicio de Medicina del Trabajo. Hemos demostrado que este proyecto es una herramienta rentable y efectiva en la lucha contra la HTA, vinculando la salud pública, los recursos de los ayuntamientos y la universidad. Se cubre así una necesidad y servicio social que podría salvar muchas vidas con recursos de bajo costo, cumpliendo con los objetivos del desarrollo sostenible y con los objetivos de la Sociedad Española de Hipertensión (SEH-LELHA) y de la estrategia HEARTS de la OPS/OMS. Los estudiantes se dan cuenta de la realidad de la Salud pública al tener contacto directo con la población, realizando un servicio a la sociedad, y desarrollándose profesionalmente.

Spatial variability of the relationships of runoff and sediment yield with weather types throughout the Mediterranean basin

Summarization: Soil degradation by water is a serious environmental problem worldwide, with specific climatic factors being the major causes. We investigated the relationships between synoptic atmospheric patterns (i.e. weather types, WTs) and runoff, erosion and sediment yield throughout the Mediterranean basin by analyzing a large database of natural rainfall events at 68 research sites in 9 countries. Principal Component Analysis (PCA) was used to identify spatial relationships of the different WTs including three hydro-sedimentary variables: rainfall, runoff, and sediment yield (SY, used to refer to both soil erosion measured at plot scale and sediment yield registered at catchment scale). The results indicated 4 spatial classes of rainfall and runoff: (a) northern sites dependent on North (N) and North West (NW) flows; (b) eastern sites dependent on E and NE flows; (c) southern sites dependent on S and SE flows; and, finally, (d) western sites dependent on W and SW flows. Conversely, three spatial classes are identified for SY characterized by: (a) N and NE flows in northern sites (b) E flows in eastern sites, and (c) W and SW flows in western sites. Most of the rainfall, runoff and SY occurred during a small number of daily events, and just a few WTs accounted for large percentages of the total. Our results confirm that characterization by WT improves understanding of the general conditions under which runoff and SY occur, and provides useful information for understanding the spatial variability of runoff, and SY throughout the Mediterranean basin. The approach used here could be useful to aid of the design of regional water management and soil conservation measures.Παρουσιάστηκε στο: Journal of Hydrolog

Tuberculosis: integrated studies for a complex disease 2050

Tuberculosis (TB) has been a disease for centuries with various challenges [1]. Like other places where challenges and opportunities come together, TB challenges were the inspiration for the scientific community to mobilize different groups for the purpose of interest. For example, with the emergence of drug resistance, there has been a huge volume of research on the discovery of new medicines and drug delivery methods and the repurposing of old drugs [2, 3]. Moreover, to enhance the capacity to detect TB cases, studies have sought diagnostics and biomarkers, with much hope recently expressed in the direction of point-of-care tests [4]. Despite all such efforts as being highlighted in 50 Chapters of this volume, we are still writing about TB and thinking about how to fight this old disease–implying that the problem of TB might be complex, so calling the need for an integrated science to deal with multiple dimensions in a simultaneous and effective manner. We are not the first one; there have been proposed integrated platform for TB research, integrated prevention services, integrated models for drug screening, integrated imaging protocol, integrated understanding of the disease pathogenesis, integrated control models, integrated mapping of the genome of the pathogen, etc. [5–12], to name some. These integrated jobs date back decades ago. So, a question arises: why is there a disease named TB yet? It might be due to the fact that this integration has happened to a scale that is not global, and so TB remains to be a problem, especially in resource-limited settings. Hope Tuberculosis: Integrated Studies for a Complex Disease helps to globalize the integrated science of TB.info:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersio

Effects of pre-operative isolation on postoperative pulmonary complications after elective surgery: an international prospective cohort study an international prospective cohort study

We aimed to determine the impact of pre-operative isolation on postoperative pulmonary complications after elective surgery during the global SARS-CoV-2 pandemic. We performed an international prospective cohort study including patients undergoing elective surgery in October 2020. Isolation was defined as the period before surgery during which patients did not leave their house or receive visitors from outside their household. The primary outcome was postoperative pulmonary complications, adjusted in multivariable models for measured confounders. Pre-defined sub-group analyses were performed for the primary outcome. A total of 96,454 patients from 114 countries were included and overall, 26,948 (27.9%) patients isolated before surgery. Postoperative pulmonary complications were recorded in 1947 (2.0%) patients of which 227 (11.7%) were associated with SARS-CoV-2 infection. Patients who isolated pre-operatively were older, had more respiratory comorbidities and were more commonly from areas of high SARS-CoV-2 incidence and high-income countries. Although the overall rates of postoperative pulmonary complications were similar in those that isolated and those that did not (2.1% vs 2.0%, respectively), isolation was associated with higher rates of postoperative pulmonary complications after adjustment (adjusted OR 1.20, 95%CI 1.05–1.36, p = 0.005). Sensitivity analyses revealed no further differences when patients were categorised by: pre-operative testing; use of COVID-19-free pathways; or community SARS-CoV-2 prevalence. The rate of postoperative pulmonary complications increased with periods of isolation longer than 3 days, with an OR (95%CI) at 4–7 days or ≥ 8 days of 1.25 (1.04–1.48), p = 0.015 and 1.31 (1.11–1.55), p = 0.001, respectively. Isolation before elective surgery might be associated with a small but clinically important increased risk of postoperative pulmonary complications. Longer periods of isolation showed no reduction in the risk of postoperative pulmonary complications. These findings have significant implications for global provision of elective surgical care.
