Data from: Effects of undergrowth removal and edge proximity on ground beetles and vascular plants in urban boreal forests
2019
Urban forests are regularly managed for human safety and aesthetic reasons, but they are crucial habitat for many species. Removals of undergrowth occur commonly in these forests, yet the ecological consequences of these operations are poorly understood. We sampled ground beetles (Coleoptera, Carabidae) and vascular plants along 20-m edge gradients in Finnish urban forests, in five stands treated 0.5−2.5 years earlier with undergrowth removal and in five untreated stands. We hypothesized that undergrowth removal and edge proximity would benefit opportunistic and open-habitat species, whereas shady-habitat species would be affected negatively.

Modelagem da cinética de secagem de discos de maçã e abobrinha impregnadas a vácuo com antocianinas
2019
ABSTRACT: The aim of this research was to study the drying kinetics of apple and zucchini slices enriched with anthocyanins and to evaluate the influence of drying temperature on the anthocyanin content of apple and zucchini snacks. Apple (Granny Smith) and zucchini (Cucurbita pepo) slices were enriched with anthocyanins by vacuum impregnation with blueberry juice. Then, slices were dehydrated at 40, 50 and 60 ºC with 1.0 m/s air flow. Dehydrated samples were referred to as anthocyanin enriched snacks. Diffusion coefficient values improved by increasing the drying temperature, within the 2.81×10-10 to 5.78×10-10 m2/s range for apple slices and 2.02×10-10 to 3.99×10-10 m2/s for zucchini slic…
Otra política d asilo es posible en Europea. Una breve comparación entre la UE y Canadá.
2016
La situación que ha generado en la Unión Europea la mal denominada “crisis de los refugiados”, pone en evidencia hasta qué punto ha fracasado el denominado Sistema Común de Asilo. Múltiples factores han concurrido, durante dos décadas, hasta llegar a lo que puede considerarse una desnaturalización del asilo. Para reivindicar la necesidad de protección internacional como un derecho en el contexto europeo, es interesante analizar, como propone este trabajo, los múltiples factores que han concurrido para que el sistema Dublín no llegue a implementarse. Dicho estudio, además, puede completarse desde una perspectiva comparada atendiendo al caso canadiense. La confrontación entre algunas de las m…
Biotechnological advances in neuro-electro-stimulation for the treatment of hyposalivation and xerostomia
2009
El tratamiento de la xerostomía es un desafío clínico común en la práctica de la medicina oral. Aunque se han utilizado algunos tratamientos para mejorar los síntomas de la xerostomía, ninguno es del todo satisfactorio para los pacientes que padecen esta alteración. En los últimos años se han desarrollado tratamientos no farmacológicos basados en la electroestimulación para el tratamiento de la xerostomía. Esta revisión tiene como objetivo presentar nuevos desarrollos para el tratamiento de la xerostomía, aplicando neuroestimulación mediante electroestimuladores intraorales miniaturizados. Estos dispositivos aumentan la secreción salival y mejoran los síntomas de sequedad bucal. Su efecto…
Cambios en la activación electromiográfica de la musculatura de codo en sujetos sanos comparada con la activación muscular en sujetos con tendinopatí…
2021
La tendinopatía es uno de los problemas de tendón más frecuente de lesión en la actualidad. En el caso de miembros superiores, la alteración en los tendones es bastante significativa tanto en deportistas como en personas que no practican deporte. Sin embargo, hay pocos estudios que reflejen cómo repercute esto en las personas que lo padecen. Objetivos: el objetivo de este estudio es examinar y comparar la actividad electromiografia, la fuerza y la calidad de vida en personas con alteración tendinosa epicondílea del músculo extensor corto de carpo entre personas sanas, además de comprobar el efecto de la punción seca como rama de tratamiento en la actividad muscular, fuerza y dolor.

Impact of Consuming Extra-Virgin Olive Oil or Nuts within a Mediterranean Diet on DNA Methylation in Peripheral White Blood Cells within the PREDIMED…
2017
DNA methylation could be reversible and mouldable by environmental factors, such as dietary exposures. The objective was to analyse whether an intervention with two Mediterranean diets, one rich in extra-virgin olive oil (MedDiet + EVOO) and the other one in nuts (MedDiet + nuts), was influencing the methylation status of peripheral white blood cells (PWBCs) genes. A subset of 36 representative individuals were selected within the PREvención con DIeta MEDiterránea (PREDIMED-Navarra) trial, with three intervention groups in high cardiovascular risk volunteers: MedDiet + EVOO, MedDiet + nuts, and a low-fat control group. Methylation was assessed at baseline and at five-year follow-up. Ingenui…
Effect of nut consumption on oxidative stress and the endothelial function in metabolic syndrome
2010
Effect of nut consumption on oxidative stress and the endothelial function in metabolic syndrome BACKGROUND & AIMS: Oxidative stress has a key role in atherosclerosis, cancer and other chronic diseases. Some bioactive compounds in nuts have been implicated in antioxidant activities. OBJECTIVE: We assessed how nut consumption affected several markers of oxidation and endothelial function (EF) in metabolic syndrome (MetS) patients. PATIENTS AND METHODS: A randomized, controlled, parallel feeding trial was conducted on 50 MetS adults who were recommended a healthy diet supplemented or not with 30 g of mixed nuts (Nut and Control groups, respectively) every day for 12 weeks. The plasma anti…
Components of the mediterranean-type food pattern and serum inflammatory markers among patients at high risk for cardiovascular disease
2007
Components of the Mediterranean-type food pattern and serum inflammatory markers among patients at high risk for cardiovascular disease. OBJECTIVE: To evaluate associations between components of the Mediterranean diet and circulating markers of inflammation in a large cohort of asymptomatic subjects at high risk for cardiovascular disease. SUBJECTS/METHODS: A total of 339 men and 433 women aged between 55 and 80 years at high cardiovascular risk because of presence of diabetes or at least three classical cardiovascular risk factors, food consumption was determined by a semi-quantitative food frequency questionnaire. Serum concentrations of high-sensitivity C-reactive protein (CRP) were meas…
