Trastornos psiquiátricos en transeúntes: un estudio epidemiológico en Aranjuez.

Presentamos un estudio transversal de epidemiología psiquiátrica acerca de los principales trastornos mentales existentes en una población sin hogar que acude a un albergue de transeúntes en Aranjuez (Madrid). Discutimos los resultados obtenidos en el contexto sociosanitario de nuestro paí

Circular strings, wormholes and minimum size

The quantization of circular strings in an anti-de Sitter background spacetime is performed, obtaining a discrete spectrum for the string mass. A comparison with a four-dimensional homogeneous and isotropic spacetime coupled to a conformal scalar field shows that the string radius and the scale factor have the same classical solutions and that the quantum theories of these two models are formally equivalent. However, the physically relevant observables of these two systems have different spectra, although they are related to each other by a specific one-to-one transformation. We finally obtain a discrete spectrum for the spacetime size of both systems, which presents a nonvanishing lower bound.Comment: 11 pages, LaTeX2e, minor change

Experimental verification of intermediate band formation on titanium-implanted silicon

Intermediate band formation on silicon layers for solar cell applications was achieved by titanium implantation and laser annealing. A two-layer heterogeneous system, formed by the implanted layer and by the un-implanted substrate, was formed. In this work, we present for the first time electrical characterization results which show that recombination is suppressed when the Ti concentration is high enough to overcome the Mott limit, in agreement with the intermediate band theory. Clear differences have been observed between samples implanted with doses under or over the Mott limit. Samples implanted under the Mott limit have capacitance values much lower than the un-implanted ones as corresponds to a highly doped semiconductor Schottky junction. However, when the Mott limit is surpassed, the samples have much higher capacitance, revealing that the intermediate band is formed. The capacitance increasing is due to the big amount of charge trapped at the intermediate band, even at low temperatures. Ti deep levels have been measured by admittance spectroscopy. These deep levels are located at energies which vary from 0.20 to 0.28?eV below the conduction band for implantation doses in the range 1013-1014 at./cm2. For doses over the Mott limit, the implanted atoms become nonrecombinant. Capacitance voltage transient technique measurements prove that the fabricated devices consist of two-layers, in which the implanted layer and the substrate behave as an n+/n junction

Finerenone Attenuates Endothelial Dysfunction and Albuminuria in a Chronic Kidney Disease Model by a Reduction in Oxidative Stress

Albuminuria is an early marker of renovascular damage associated to an increase in oxidative stress. The Munich Wistar Frömter (MWF) rat is a model of chronic kidney disease (CKD), which exhibits endothelial dysfunction associated to low nitric oxide availability. We hypothesize that the new highly selective, non-steroidal mineralocorticoid receptor (MR) antagonist, finerenone, reverses both endothelial dysfunction and microalbuminuria. Twelve-week-old MWF (MWF-C; MWF-FIN) and aged-matched normoalbuminuric Wistar (W-C; W-FIN) rats were treated with finerenone (FIN, 10 mg/kg/day p.o.) or vehicle (C) for 4-week. Systolic blood pressure (SBP) and albuminuria were determined the last day of treatment. Finerenone lowered albuminuria by >40% and significantly reduced SBP in MWF. Aortic rings of MWF-C showed higher contractions to either noradrenaline (NA) or angiotensin II (Ang II), and lower relaxation to acetylcholine (Ach) than W-C rings. These alterations were reversed by finerenone to W-C control levels due to an upregulation in phosphorylated Akt and eNOS, and an increase in NO availability. Apocynin and 3-amino-1,2,4-triazole significantly reduced contractions to NA or Ang II in MWF-C, but not in MWF-FIN rings. Accordingly, a significant increase of Mn-superoxide dismutase (SOD) and Cu/Zn-SOD protein levels were observed in rings of MWF-FIN, without differences in p22phox, p47phox or catalase levels. Total SOD activity was increased in kidneys from MWF-FIN rats. In conclusion, finerenone improves endothelial dysfunction through an enhancement in NO bioavailability and a decrease in superoxide anion levels due to an upregulation in SOD activity. This is associated with an increase in renal SOD activity and a reduction of albuminuria
