Estudio y descripción del Expediente de Liquidación de Juros del Convento de Santa Clara de Medina de Pomar (1432-1882)

Based on an attentive bibliographical revision and the work of a multilevel stand-ardized description, this paper seeks to carry out an historical and documentary study that has as its subject the documentary collections in the care of public archives. Taking from the documentation that proceeds from the Fondo Antiguo de Hacienda and is preserved in the AGA, the case of the “Record of the Settlement of Property Rights of the Convent of Saint Clare of Medina de Pomar (1432-1882)” has been chosen with the aim of applying the ar-chival techniques and to value a part of the historical patrimony preserved in state archives.Sobre la base de una atenta revisión bibliográfica y de una labor de descripción normalizada multinivel, se ha tratado en este trabajo realizar un estudio de carácter históricodocumental que tuviera como objeto los fondos documentales custodiados por los archivos públicos. Sirviéndose de la documentación procedentes del Fondo Antiguo de Hacienda conservado en el AGA se ha seleccionado el caso del «Expediente de Liquidación de Juros del Convento de Santa Clara de Medina de Pomar (1432-1882)» con el fin de aplicar las técnicas archivísticas y poner en valor una parte del patrimonio histórico conservado en los archivos estatales

Cardiovascular-related proteomic changes in ECFCs exposed to the serum of COVID-19 patients

Severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) infection significantly affects the cardiovascular system, causing vascular damage and thromboembolic events in critical patients. Endothelial dysfunction represents one of the first steps in response to COVID-19 that might lead to cardiovascular complications and long-term sequelae. However, despite the enormous efforts in the last two years, the molecular mechanisms involved in such processes remain poorly understood. Herein, we analyzed the protein changes taking place in endothelial colony forming cells (ECFCs) after the incubation with the serum from individuals infected with COVID-19, whether asymptomatic or critical patients, by application of a label free-quantitative proteomics approach. Specifically, ECFCs from healthy individuals were incubated ex-vivo with the serum of either COVID-19 negative donors (PCR-/IgG-, n:8), COVID-19 asymptomatic donors at different infective stages (PCR+/ IgG-, n:8and PCR-/IgG+, n:8), or hospitalized critical COVID-19 patients (n:8), followed by proteomics analysis. In total, 590 proteins were differentially expressed in ECFCs in response to all infected serums. Predictive analysis highlighted several proteins like CAPN5, SURF4, LAMP2 or MT-ND1, as highly discriminating features between the groups compared. Protein changes correlated with viral infection, RNA metabolism or autophagy, among others. Remarkably, the angiogenic potential of ECFCs in response to the infected serums was impaired, and many of the protein alterations in response to the serum of critical patients were associated with cardiovascular-related pathologies.This study was supported by GLOBALCAJA-Ayuda COVID-19; and Fondo Supera COVID-19, funded by Banco Santander and CRUE universidades, Ref.

Effect of the type of surgical indication on mortality in patients with infective endocarditis who are rejected for surgical intervention

AIM: To evaluate the effect of the type of surgical indication on mortality in infective endocarditis (IE) patients who are rejected for surgery. METHODS AND RESULTS: From January 2008 to December 2016, 2714 patients with definite left-sided IE were attended in the participating hospitals. One thousand six hundred and fifty-three patients (60.9%) presented surgical indications. Five hundred and thirty-eight patients (32.5%) presented surgical indications but received medical treatment alone. The indications for surgery in these patients were uncontrolled infection (366 patients, 68%), heart failure (168 patients, 31.3%) and prevention of embolism (148 patients, 27.6%). One hundred and thirty patients (24.2%) presented more than one indication. The mortality during hospital admission was 60% (323 patients). The in-hospital mortality of patients whose indication for surgery was heart failure, uncontrolled infection or risk of embolism was 75.6%, 61.4% and 54.7%, respectively (p?<?0.001). Surgical indications due to heart failure (OR: 3.24; CI 95%: 1.99-5.9) or uncontrolled infection (OR: 1.83; CI 95%: 1.04-3.18) were independently associated with a fatal outcome during hospital admission. Mortality during the first year was 75.4%. The mortality during the first year in patients whose indication for surgery was heart failure, uncontrolled infection or risk of embolism was 85.9%, 76.7% and 72.7%, respectively (p?=?0.016). Surgical indication due to heart failure (OR: 3.03; CI 95%: 1.53-5.98) were independently associated with fatal outcome during the first year. CONCLUSIONS: The type of surgical indication is associated with mortality in IE patients who are rejected for surgical intervention

Role of age and comorbidities in mortality of patients with infective endocarditis

[Purpose]: The aim of this study was to analyse the characteristics of patients with IE in three groups of age and to assess the ability of age and the Charlson Comorbidity Index (CCI) to predict mortality. [Methods]: Prospective cohort study of all patients with IE included in the GAMES Spanish database between 2008 and 2015.Patients were stratified into three age groups:<65 years,65 to 80 years,and ≥ 80 years.The area under the receiver-operating characteristic (AUROC) curve was calculated to quantify the diagnostic accuracy of the CCI to predict mortality risk. [Results]: A total of 3120 patients with IE (1327 < 65 years;1291 65-80 years;502 ≥ 80 years) were enrolled.Fever and heart failure were the most common presentations of IE, with no differences among age groups.Patients ≥80 years who underwent surgery were significantly lower compared with other age groups (14.3%,65 years; 20.5%,65-79 years; 31.3%,≥80 years). In-hospital mortality was lower in the <65-year group (20.3%,<65 years;30.1%,65-79 years;34.7%,≥80 years;p < 0.001) as well as 1-year mortality (3.2%, <65 years; 5.5%, 65-80 years;7.6%,≥80 years; p = 0.003).Independent predictors of mortality were age ≥ 80 years (hazard ratio [HR]:2.78;95% confidence interval [CI]:2.32–3.34), CCI ≥ 3 (HR:1.62; 95% CI:1.39–1.88),and non-performed surgery (HR:1.64;95% CI:11.16–1.58).When the three age groups were compared,the AUROC curve for CCI was significantly larger for patients aged <65 years(p < 0.001) for both in-hospital and 1-year mortality. [Conclusion]: There were no differences in the clinical presentation of IE between the groups. Age ≥ 80 years, high comorbidity (measured by CCI),and non-performance of surgery were independent predictors of mortality in patients with IE.CCI could help to identify those patients with IE and surgical indication who present a lower risk of in-hospital and 1-year mortality after surgery, especially in the <65-year group

I Congreso Nacional: La Ciencia en la Educación Infantil y Primaria

Documento PDF de 236 páginas donde se resume las conferencias, ponencias, comunicaciones y carteles presentados en el I Congreso Nacional "La Ciencia en la Educación Infantil y Primaria" celebrado los días 5,6,7 y 8 de septiembre de 2001. La organización del congreso estuvo a cargo del Grupo de Extensión Científica del IMAFF del CSIC (El CSIC en la Escuela) y de la Real Sociedad Española de Física.Resumen de las ponencias, comunicaciones y posters del I Congreso Nacional "La Ciencia en la Educación Infantil y Primaria" celebrado en Granada en septiembre de 2001. El objetivo de este congreso es propiciar el acercamiento del mundo de la Ciencia al de la enseñanza en las primeras etapas. La enseñanza de la Ciencia, concebida como parte de la cultura, es un elemento fundamental de los contenidos con los que un niño tiene que contar para afrontar un mundo de creciente complejidad, en el que la Ciencia irrumpe como ingrediente cotidiano. Despertar su curiosidad y espíritu crítico, fomentar la creatividad y desarrollar destrezas y actitudes, a la vez que se transmiten contenidos científicos, son actividades esenciales para ayudarle a entender un mundo en el que el valor de la observación y la experimentación adquieren la categoría de requisito en el nuevo humanismo.Real Sociedad Española de Física.
