Marcas turísticas y territorio : Un análisis geográfico del turismo valenciano
2002
-Emili.Obiol@uv.es Este trabajo tiene por objetivo analizar las relaciones territoriales existentes en las marcas turísticas zonales del País Valenciano. Interesará ver cómo la geografía es la gran abastecedora de los componentes básicos de una marca turística, de modo que los logotipos y elementos de ésta coinciden con los recursos territoriales turísticos más significativos de aquella. Se estudiarán especialmente los casos de las marcas turísticas «Costa Azahar», «Mediterrània » y «Valencia, terra y mar». En ellas se analizarán también sus orígenes, estrategias turísticas y de márketing y sus vicisitudes de gestión. Aspectos importantes serán asimismo la conveniencia o no de la presencia …

Global diversity in the TAS2R38 bitter taste receptor: revisiting a classic evolutionary PROPosal
2016
AbstractThe ability to taste phenylthiocarbamide (PTC) and 6-n-propylthiouracil (PROP) is a polymorphic trait mediated by the TAS2R38 bitter taste receptor gene. It has long been hypothesized that global genetic diversity at this locus evolved under pervasive pressures from balancing natural selection. However, recent high-resolution population genetic studies of TAS2Rs suggest that demographic events have played a critical role in the evolution of these genes. We here utilized the largest TAS2R38 database yet analyzed, consisting of 5,589 individuals from 105 populations, to examine natural selection, haplotype frequencies and linkage disequilibrium to estimate the effects of both selectio…
SINDROME DA ATTIVAZIONE MACROFAGICA SECONDARIA AD IMMUNODEFICIT
2018
Introduzione: la sindrome da attivazione macrofagica (SAM) è una condizione clinica rara, di cui esistono forme primitive (es. deficit di perforine) e secondarie ad infezioni, farmaci, immunodeficit; nel 10% dei casi rappresenta una complicanza dell'artrite idiopatica giovanile sistemica (AIG). Criteri diagnostici: febbre, epatosplenomegalia, citopenia bilineare, aumento di ferritina, transaminasi, ipertrigliceridemia ed ipofibrinogenemia con segni di emofagocitosi all'aspirato midollare. Terapia: metilprednisolone a 30 mg/Kg/die ev e terapia della patologia di base; nei no-responders trova impiego l'uso dei farmaci immunosoppressori come ciclosporina, Anakinra per forme secondarie ad AIG, …
Canakinumab as first-line biological therapy in Still’s disease and differences between the systemic and the chronic-articular courses: Real-life exp…
2022
ObjectiveInterleukin (IL)-1 inhibitors are largely employed in patients with Still’s disease; in cases with refractory arthritis, IL-6 inhibitors have shown to be effective on articular inflammatory involvement. The aim of the present study is to assess any difference in the effectiveness of the IL-1β antagonist canakinumab prescribed as first-line biologic agent between the systemic and the chronic-articular Still’s disease.MethodsData were drawn from the retrospective phase of the AutoInflammatory Disease Alliance (AIDA) international registry dedicated to Still’s disease. Patients with Still’s disease classified according to internationally accepted criteria (Yamaguchi criteria and/or Fa…

Intestinal tuberculosis in a child living in a country with a low incidence of tuberculosis : a case report
2014
Background: Relatively common in adults, intestinal tuberculosis is considered rare in children and adolescents. The protean manifestations of intestinal tuberculosis mean that the diagnosis is often delayed (sometimes even for years), thus leading to increased mortality and unnecessary surgery. The main diagnostic dilemma is to differentiate intestinal tuberculosis and Crohn’s disease because a misdiagnosis can have dramatic consequences. Case presentation: A 13-year-old Caucasian, Italian female adolescent attended the Emergency Department complaining of abdominal pain, a fever of up to 38°C, night sweats, diarrhea with blood in stool, and a weight loss of about three kilograms over the p…
Two New Alternatives to the Conventional Arm-in-Cage Test for Assessing Topical Repellents
2021
Abstract European guidelines for testing attractant and repellent efficacy (i.e., Product type 19 [PT19]) have been in revision since 2017. A key topic of discussion is the current approach to evaluating topical repellents. The European Chemical Agency has stated field testing should be avoided because of mosquito-borne disease risks. However, the most common laboratory method, the arm-in-cage (AIC) test, may limit the reliable extrapolation of lab results to field conditions. This study’s main goal was to assess alternative laboratory methods for evaluating topical mosquito repellents that use mosquito landing rates more representative of those in the field. The study took place at three E…
Pulsating in Unison at Optical and X-Ray Energies: Simultaneous High Time Resolution Observations of the Transitional Millisecond Pulsar PSR J1023+00…
2019
PSR J1023+0038 is the first millisecond pulsar discovered to pulsate in the visible band; such a detection took place when the pulsar was surrounded by an accretion disk and also showed X-ray pulsations. We report on the first high time resolution observational campaign of this transitional pulsar in the disk state, using simultaneous observations in the optical (TNG, NOT, TJO), X-ray (XMM-Newton, NuSTAR, NICER), infrared (GTC) and UV (Swift) bands. Optical and X-ray pulsations were detected simultaneously in the X-ray high intensity mode in which the source spends $\sim$ 70% of the time, and both disappeared in the low mode, indicating a common underlying physical mechanism. In addition, o…
