Algunas novedades para las floras de Ávila y Cáceres

Presentamos en esta nota, datos básicamente corológicos, sobre 56 plantas de las provincias de Ávila y Cáceres, distribuidas principalmente en las zonas montañosas de las mismas, predominantemente en la Sierra de Gredos. Las 44 citadas como novedades se refieren todas a la provincia de Ávila. Las restantes, incluidas las citas de Cáceres, se destacan por su rareza en la provincia, por ser confirmación de otras citas muy antiguas o por aportar nuevos datos a otras publicaciones, fundamentalmente Flora Iberica. Citamos una novedad para toda Castilla-León: Elaeoselinum foetidum (L.) Boiss. Por el contrario, algunas de estas novedades corresponden a especies notoriamente abundantes en toda o gran parte de la provincia, pero que permanecían sin citar, como es el caso de Typha latifolia L. y Typha dominguensis (Pers.) Steudel o Rosmarinus officinalis L.We present in this note, information basically chorological, on 56 plants of the provinces of Ávila and Cáceres, distributed principally in the mountainous zones of the same ones, predominantly in Sierra de Gredos. The 44 mentioned as new records, refer all to the province of Ávila. Remaining, included the appointments of Cáceres, they are realized by his rarity in the province, for being a confirmation of other very ancient records, or for contributing new information to other publications, fundamentally Flora Iberica. We mention a new record for all Castilla-León: Elaeoselinum foetidum (L.) Boiss. On the contrary, some of these new records correspond to glaringly abundant species in all or great zone of the province, but that were remaining without mentioning, since it is the case of Typha latifolia L. and Typha dominguensis (Pers.) Steudel or Rosmarinus officinalis L

Utilización de antimicrobianos en los hospitales públicos de Andalucía: 1995-1996

Objetivo. Describir el consumo de antiinfecciosos en los hospitales públicos de Andalucía durante los años 1995 y 1996. Establecer las diferencias cuali y cuantitativas en el consumo, cuando se expresa en DDD o DDPs. Método. Se estudió el consumo de antimicrobianos mediante el cálculo de las DDDs y DDPs/100 estancias-día, siguiendo básicamente la clasificación ATC. Se analizó la utilización para el conjunto de los hospitales y por tipo de hospital (regional, de especialidades y comarcal), valorándose los grupos terapéuticos y antimicrobianos más utilizados mediante una clasificación descendente en consumo. Resultados. En ambos años participaron 27 de 31 hospitales (87,1%). El consumo total en DDD/100 Est.-día fue de 73,67 y 75,17 y en DDPs/100 Est.-día fue de 64,61 y 65,39. El 80% de la utilización se concentra en penicilinas, cefalosporinas, quinolonas y aminoglucósidos. Destaca un 24% de aumento interanual en las quinolonas. Amoxicilinaclavulánico es el antibiótico con una mayor utilización en los dos años: 9,84 y 11,93 DDDs/100 Est.-día. La diferencia en el consumo global resultó ser un 12,6% más baja si se expresa en DDP.Objetive. To describe the consumption of anti-infectious agents in public hospitals of Andalucia, Spain, in 1995 and 1996. To establish qualitative and quantitative differences in consumption expressed as DDD and PDD. Method. Antimicrobial consumption was calculated by DDD and PDD/100 hospital days following the ATC classification. An analysis was made of drug use by the overall group of hospitals and by the type of hospital (regional, specialty, and local). Therapeutic groups and the most frequently used antimicrobial agents were analyzed by a descending classification of consumption. Results. In the two years of the study, 27 of 31 (87.1%) hospitals participated. Overall consumption by DDD/100 hospital days was 73.67 and 75.17 and by PDD/100 hospital days, 64.61 and 65.39. Eighty percent of the drugs used were penicillins, cephalosporins, quinolones and aminoglycosides. An interannual increase of 24% in quinolone use was noteworthy. Amoxicillin-clavulanic acid was the antibiotic most often used in both years: 9.84 and 11.93 DDD/100 hospital days. The difference in overall consumption was 12.0%, with a lower PDD

On the use of information and infrastructure technologies for the smart city research in Europe: a survey

The Smart City paradigm has become one of the most important research topics around the globe. Particularly in Europe, it is considered as a solution for unstoppable increase of high density urban environments and the European Commission has included the Smart City research as one of the key objectives for the FP7 (Seventh Framework Program) and H2020 (Horizon 2020) research initiatives. As a result, a considerable amount of quality research, with particular emphasis on information and communication technologies, has been produced. In this paper, we review the current efforts dedicated in Europe to this research topic. Particular attention is paid in the review to the platforms and infrastructure technologies adopted to introduce the Internet of Things into the city, taking into account the constraints and harshness of urban environments. Furthermore, this paper also considers the efforts in the experimental perspective, which includes the review of existing Smart City testbeds, part of wider European initiatives such as FIRE (Future Internet Research and Experimentation) and FIWARE. Last but not least, the main efforts in providing interoperability between the different experimental facilities are also presented.This work was funded in part by the European Union’s Horizon 2020 Programme of the FESTIVAL project (Federated Interoperable Smart ICT Services Development and Testing Platforms) under grant agreement 643275, and from the Japanese National Institute of Information and Communications Technology

Associations between serum mitokine levels and outcomes in stable COPD: an observational prospective study

Mitokines (Humanin (HN), GDF15 and FGF21) are produced as a result of mitochondrial dysfunction and may have major roles in chronic inflammation, malnutrition and exercise capacity in people with COPD. Except for GDF15, studies on this subject are lacking. A total of 165 patients with stable COPD and 49 smokers without COPD were enrolled. We assessed their serum mitokine levels and clinical characteristics at baseline. We recorded moderate and severe exacerbation for the next 12 months. Baseline serum HN (p = 0.037) and GDF-15 (p = 0.013) levels were higher in the COPD group. High HN levels were independently associated with a high risk of exacerbation (HRE) (OR 2.798, 95% CI 1.266-6.187, p = 0.011), malnutrition (OR 6.645, 95% CI 1.859-23.749, p = 0.004), and 6MWD (OR 0.995, 95% CI 0.991-0.999, p = 0.008), and future moderate (HR 1.826, 95% CI 1.181-2.822, p = 0.007) and severe exacerbations (HR 3.445, 95% CI 1.357-8.740, p = 0.009). High GDF15 levels were associated with HRE (OR 3.028, 95% CI 1.134-8.083, p = 0.027), 6MWD (OR 0.995, 95% CI 0.990-0.999, p = 0.017) and predicted desaturation in 6MWT (OR 3.999, 95% CI 1.487-10.757, p = 0.006). High FGF21 levels were associated with HRE (OR 2.144, 95% CI 1.000-4.600, p = 0.05), and predicted future severe exacerbation (HR 4.217, 95% CI 1.459-12.193, p = 0.008). The mitokine levels were higher in patients with COPD than smokers without COPD, and were associated with important clinical outcomes such as exercise capacity and COPD exacerbation. Among the mitokines, HN showed the strongest association with COPD and may serve as a future risk biomarker in this disease.Trial registation NCT04449419.Funding: This study was funded by Instituto de investigación sanitaria of Cantabria (IDIVAL): NextVAL grant: NVAL19/01 and GSK (NCT04449419)

Strategies for annotation and curation of translational databases: the eTUMOUR project

The eTUMOUR (eT) multi-centre project gathered in vivo and ex vivo magnetic resonance (MR) data, as well as transcriptomic and clinical information from brain tumour patients, with the purpose of improving the diagnostic and prognostic evaluation of future patients. In order to carry this out, among other work, a database—the eTDB—was developed. In addition to complex permission rules and software and management quality control (QC), it was necessary to develop anonymization, processing and data visualization tools for the data uploaded. It was also necessary to develop sophisticated curation strategies that involved on one hand, dedicated fields for QC-generated meta-data and specialized queries and global permissions for senior curators and on the other, to establish a set of metrics to quantify its contents. The indispensable dataset (ID), completeness and pairedness indices were set. The database contains 1317 cases created as a result of the eT project and 304 from a previous project, INTERPRET. The number of cases fulfilling the ID was 656. Completeness and pairedness were heterogeneous, depending on the data type involved

Asamblea de madres y padres: construyendo una escuela intercultural inclusiva

La construcción de una escuela intercultura inclusiva implica una transformación de la cultura y la organización de los centros educativos. Este proceso pasa por una serie de etapas que requieren forzosamente del análisis y autoevaluación de la realidad escolar y del tratamiento de la diversidad para, seguidamente, llevar a cabo propuestas y acciones de mejora consensudas por parte de toda la comunidad educativa. La experiencia que estamos llevando a cabo en un centro de infantil y primaria de la provincia de Castellón está inmersa en este proceso de cambio hacia una escuela intercultural inclusiva, para ello, se ha diseñado una herramienta de análisis y planificado una serie de fases que permiten enmarcar dicha construcción compartida: Sensibilización de la comunidad, Proceso de exploración y reflexión de la realidad, Priorización de las propuestas de mejora, Implementación y seguimiento de los cambios y Reflexión y valoración del proyecto. El objetivo de este trabajo es relatar nuestra experiencia durante el proceso de sensibilización de las familias y concretamente, contar como a través de una asamblea de padres y madres se consiguió involucrar, compartir y hacer partícipes a este sector tan crucial de la comunidad educativa del sueño de la transformación de la escuel
