    O bilinguismo na comunidade autónoma da Catalunha

    Existe um provérbio checo que diz “Por cada idioma que se fala vive-se uma vida diferente. Se só se sabe apenas um idioma, só se vive uma vez”. A língua representa diversidade, património cultural, comunicação e cooperação, valores importantes e até imprescindíveis para viver e conviver em sociedade. É dentro desta perspectiva que a autora deste trabalho pretende apresentar e descrever a realidade social, educativa e pessoal, própria de alguém que nasceu e viveu na Catalunha durante 26 anos, sendo bilingue ― em casa sempre falou catalão, língua de gerações passadas e, na escola, teve toda a escolaridade obrigatória em castelhano. Naquela altura (anos 60-70), a escola ainda não era bilingue, devido à situação política que se vivia no Estado Espanhol: a ditadura do General Franco. O ponto de partida é assim o próprio interesse da autora, pela questão do bilinguismo individual, social ou educativo que, para além da realidade social já referida, se traduz na vontade de exprimir as vantagens que, um tema tão rico e diverso, pode proporcionar isoladamente a um indivíduo ou, num sentido mais amplo, à própria sociedade. Numa primeira parte, faz-se uma breve exposição das diferentes definições do bilinguismo e introduz-se uma pequena abordagem histórica das duas línguas em contacto, concretamente o castelhano e o catalão. Nunca poderemos entender realidades tão complexas, se não conhecermos um pouco da história dessas línguas e da forma como se foram desenvolvendo e adaptando até aos nossos dias. Numa segunda parte, apresenta-se um estudo linguístico do catalão na comunidade catalã, através das leis e planificações linguísticas relevantes dos últimos anos e da forma como esta sociedade as assimilou politicamente, educativamente e socialmente ao longo do tempo. Por último, pretendeu-se fazer uma análise no terreno relativamente à implementação e funcionamento destas políticas linguísticas, observando fenómenos sociológicos importantes, que influenciam a comunidade também do ponto de vista linguístico, designadamente a imigração que, actualmente, provém maioritariamente dos países sul-americanos (ao contrário da imigração dos anos 60-70, que era essencialmente interna). Este aspecto confirma a existência, de uma forma continuada no tempo, de grandes transformações no que se refere à aprendizagem do catalão e às características sociológicas de quem reside, estuda e trabalha numa comunidade essencialmente bilingue

    Design and baseline characteristics of the finerenone in reducing cardiovascular mortality and morbidity in diabetic kidney disease trial

    Background: Among people with diabetes, those with kidney disease have exceptionally high rates of cardiovascular (CV) morbidity and mortality and progression of their underlying kidney disease. Finerenone is a novel, nonsteroidal, selective mineralocorticoid receptor antagonist that has shown to reduce albuminuria in type 2 diabetes (T2D) patients with chronic kidney disease (CKD) while revealing only a low risk of hyperkalemia. However, the effect of finerenone on CV and renal outcomes has not yet been investigated in long-term trials. Patients and Methods: The Finerenone in Reducing CV Mortality and Morbidity in Diabetic Kidney Disease (FIGARO-DKD) trial aims to assess the efficacy and safety of finerenone compared to placebo at reducing clinically important CV and renal outcomes in T2D patients with CKD. FIGARO-DKD is a randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled, parallel-group, event-driven trial running in 47 countries with an expected duration of approximately 6 years. FIGARO-DKD randomized 7,437 patients with an estimated glomerular filtration rate >= 25 mL/min/1.73 m(2) and albuminuria (urinary albumin-to-creatinine ratio >= 30 to <= 5,000 mg/g). The study has at least 90% power to detect a 20% reduction in the risk of the primary outcome (overall two-sided significance level alpha = 0.05), the composite of time to first occurrence of CV death, nonfatal myocardial infarction, nonfatal stroke, or hospitalization for heart failure. Conclusions: FIGARO-DKD will determine whether an optimally treated cohort of T2D patients with CKD at high risk of CV and renal events will experience cardiorenal benefits with the addition of finerenone to their treatment regimen.

    NMR Spectrocopic Characterization and DFT Calculations of Zirconium(IV)-3,3 -Br-2-BINOLate and Related Complexes Used in an Enantioselective Friedel Crafts Alkylation of Indoles with alpha, beta-Unsaturated Ketones

    Experimental and theoretical studies on the structure of several complexes based on (R)-3,3'-Br-2-BINOL ligand and group (IV) metals used as catalysts in an enantioselective Friedel-Crafts alkylation of indoles with alpha,beta-unsaturated ketones have been carried out. NMR spectroscopic studies of these catalysts have been performed, which suggested that at room temperature the catalysts would form a monomeric structure in the case of Ti-IV and a dimeric structure in the cases of Zr-IV and Hf-IV. Density functional theory (DFT) calculations clearly corroborate the conclusions of these experimental spectroscopic studies. The dimeric structure with a doubly bridged motif [Zr-2(IV)(mu-(R)-3,3'-Br-2-BINOL)(2)] where each binaphthol ligand acts as bridge between the metal centers (Novak's model) is more stable than the dimeric structure with a doubly bridged motif [Zr-2(IV)(mu-(OBu)-Bu-t)(2)] where the tert-butoxide groups act as bridging ligands (Kobayashi's model). The scope of the Friedel-Crafts alkylation with regard to the indole structure has been studied. Finally a plausible mechanism for the Friedel-Crafts reaction and a stereomodel for the mode of action of the catalyst that explain the observed stereochemistry of the reaction products have been proposed.Financial support from the Ministerio de Ciencia e Innovacion, Gobierno de Espana and FEDER, European Union (Grant CTQ 2009-13083) and the Generalitat Valenciana (Grants ACOMP/2012/212 and ISIC 2012/001) is acknowledged.
