Abordaje psicoterapéutico en hijos de padres con trastornos mentales graves: a propósito de un caso.

Este trabajo tiene como objetivo profundizar en el estudio de los efectos que producen en el desarrollo infantil, la existencia de patología psiquiátrica en uno o ambos padres a través del recorrido de un caso clínico. Se presenta un caso de una menor de seis años que está siendo atendida en un Centro de Salud Mental, cuya madre padece un trastorno mental grave. Se defiende también la importancia de un abordaje o tratamiento preventivo que incida en el hijo y en el entorno familiar

Broadband modified-circle-shape patch antenna with H-aperture feeding for a passive radar array

In this paper, the design of a broadband modified-circle-shape patch antenna with H-aperture feeding is presented, to be used as single radiating element in the array of the surveillance channel of an UHF passive radar. Different techniques are proposed to achieve a relative bandwidth of more than 30%, and challenging radiation pattern characteristics for the defined application. The achievement of these requirements is proved through measurements in anechoic chamber. A NULA is designed using optimization techniques and considering coupling effects between elements. The NULA was integrated in IDEPAR, the passive radar demonstrator developed in the University of Alcalá, and validated through measurement campaigns. Results prove a significant improvement of the passive radar target detection and bearing estimation capabilities

Improved 2D ground target tracking in GPS-based passive radar scenarios

Global Positioning System (GPS) satellites offer promising opportunity for Passive Radar systems due to their global coverage and the availability of multiple satellites throughout the world. However, their low power at ground level limits system coverage. In this paper, a GPS based Passive Radar which exploits a single illumination source, and uses digital array processing for ground targets localization is presented. To face signal power problems, a processing scheme combining reconstructed reference signals, adaptive filtering techniques and spatial filtering is implemented. Conventional beamforming techniques are used to increase the level of the target echo before the detection stage, and high resolution DoA estimation techniques are applied to estimate targets azimuth. Ground target localization in local Cartesian space is performed taking into account the system geometry, range and azimuth information. Both synthetic and real radar data are used to analyse system operation. During the measurement campaign, a cooperative vehicle was used for validation purposes. Results confirm that ground targets detection and localization are feasible using a single GPS transmitter.Agencia Estatal de InvestigaciónJunta de Comunidades de Castila-La ManchaUniversidad de Alcal

The leukocyte activation receptor CD69 controls T cell differentiation through its interaction with galectin-1

CD69 is involved in immune cell homeostasis, regulating the T cell-mediated immune response through the control of Th17 cell differentiation. However, natural ligands for CD69 have not yet been described. Using recombinant fusion proteins containing the extracellular domain of CD69, we have detected the presence of a ligand(s) for CD69 on human dendritic cells (DCs). Pulldown followed by mass spectrometry analyses of CD69-binding moieties on DCs identified galectin-1 as a CD69 counterreceptor. Surface plasmon resonance and anti-CD69 blocking analyses demonstrated a direct and specific interaction between CD69 and galectin-1 that was carbohydrate dependent. Functional assays with both human and mouse T cells demonstrated the role of CD69 in the negative effect of galectin-1 on Th17 differentiation. Our findings identify CD69 and galectin-1 to be a novel regulatory receptor-ligand pair that modulates Th17 effector cell differentiation and functionThis work was funded by grants SAF2011-25834 and ERC-2011AdG 294340-GENTRIS to F.S.-M., RECAVA RD06/0014 from the Fondo de Investigaciones Sanitarias to J.V. and F.S.-M., and INDISNET 01592006 from the Comunidad de Madrid to F.S.-M. and P.M. and by grants from the Ministerio de Economia y Competitividad (PI11/01562 to P.N.) and the Generalitat de Catalunya-AGAUR (2009SGR1409 to P.N.).

Una experiencia de grupos terapéuticos con adolescentes y jóvenes en un centro de salud mental.

El presente trabajo describe la experiencia de tratamiento grupal con adolescentes y jóvenes desarrollada en un Centro de Salud Mental

Estructura familiar, acontecimientos vitales estresantes y psicopatología en la adolescencia.

El presente trabajo plantea estudiar el impacto de la experiencia de acontecimientos vitales estresantes y las manifestaciones clínicas de la población de adolescentes y jóvenes atendida en los Servicios de Salud Mental de Parla (Madrid, Área 10). Explorar cuáles son las variables de personalidad que determinan una respuesta diferencial ante los acontecimientos vitales estresantes, nos ayuda a comprender mejor los factores que hacen que los adolescentes resistan las adversidades de la vida, cuáles son los déficits de aquellos que sucumben y qué factores han de ponerse en marcha para lograr intervenciones eficaces
