Emily Dickinson: An August Love on Earth
2018
Esta tesis examina tres de los cuarenta libros manuscritos, o cuadernillos, de la poeta Emily Dickinson (1830-1886). La forma, el contenido y la disposición de estos tres cuadernillos 11, 12 y 13 (los cuales incluyen un total de 66 poemas y fueron compilados durante 1863), confirman la presencia de un amante cuya figura supuso una fuerza inspiradora durante este período. Leer estos tres cuadernillos consecutivamente nos ayuda a entender la historia y proceso emocional de Dickinson; los poemas incluidos reflejan un amor que es obvio en el cuadernillo 11, puesto que la sitúa en un estado de expectativa constante. Este amor comienza a disminuir en el cuadernillo 12, situación que puede constat…
Vaccinium macrocarpon (Cranberry)-Based Dietary Supplements: Variation in Mass Uniformity, Proanthocyanidin Dosage and Anthocyanin Profile Demonstrat…
2020
Vaccinium macrocarpon (syn. American Cranberry) is employed in dietary supplements (DS) with the aim to improve urinary tract well-being. This property is linked to the antiadhesion-activity of proanthocyanidins (PACs) against uropathogenic-bacteria. However, the current European legislation has been criticized for being weak and ineffective. Indeed, recent scientific works report mislabeled, contaminated, and adulterated supplements containing dangerous or unknown compounds, or sold at toxic doses. In this work, we analysed 24 DS that claim to contain cranberry, and to have a specific dosage of PACs. Our tests included the control of the good manufacturing practice according to the Europea…
Ortodoncia lingual y ortodoncia vestibular: estudio comparativo de la selección de casos y la calidad de terminación
2017
Las malposiciones dentales tienen un impacto significativo sobre la estética de la sonrisa y, por tanto, se considera un factor clave que afecta de forma directa a la autoestima. El objetivo principal de un tratamiento de ortodoncia es conseguir una oclusión ideal, que sea morfológicamente estable a la vez que estética y funcional. El tratamiento de ortodoncia con aparatología fija se ha relacionado con algunos aspectos que condicionan la calidad de vida, desde el punto de vista de la salud bucodental, como problemas en la higiene oral, mayor dificultad en la pronunciación, mayor riesgo de aparición de lesiones de caries o mayores restricciones alimentarias. Estos efectos adversos se han re…
Stable isotopes covering 96-7 ka BP from stalagmite CM (Santo Tomas Cave, Cuba)
2020
We present a new speleothem trace element and stable isotope record, which extends previous paleoclimate evidence from Cuban speleothems to the last 96 ka. Stable isotope samples were micromilled at a resolution of 0.10-0.33mm, and measured using an IRMS equipped with a Gasbench. Line scans of Element/Calcium ratios of the speleothem were measured by laser ablation ICPMS and were reduced to the resolution of the stable isotope records.

Epidemiology of eating disorders in Latin America: a systematic review and meta-analysis.
2016
Purpose of reviewEating disorders are currently not considered to be limited to Western culture. We systematically reviewed the existing literature on the prevalence of eating disorders in Latin America.Recent findingsOf 1583 records screened, 17 studies from Argentina, Brazil, Chile, Colombia, Mexico, and Venezuela were included in the analysis. Most studies reported point-prevalence rates and only three studies provided lifetime and 12-month prevalence rates. We found a mean point-prevalence rate of 0.1% for anorexia nervosa, 1.16% for bulimia nervosa, and 3.53% for binge-eating disorder (BED) in the general population. Heterogeneity for bulimia nervosa and BED was large. This meta-analys…

Abortion in Latin America. More Than Criminalization, Not Yet Women’s Constitutional Right
2018
Latin America abortion law is often categorized as seriously restricted. And this is so, partially. Abortion is criminalized if it does not fit in the legal indications (e.g. health risk, rape) contemplated. These indications have not only been one of the most innovative areas to expand access to legal abortion in the region in the last years – including rulings of high courts – but they also question the typical classification of Latin America as an extremely legal constrained setting. In fact, if we look closely at the world legal map, we find that only two countries have absolutely ruled out the use of criminal law to deal with voluntary abortion (Canada and few jurisdictions in Australi…
LATIN AMERICA AND ABYA YALA IN TEACHING SPANISH HISTORY: THE "DISCOVERY", THE CONQUEST AND CONTROVERSIES OF THE BLACK LEGEND
2019
RESUMO O trabalho explicita as representações contemporâneas da História da América no ensino de História na Espanha. Explicita e problematiza as configurações textuais e iconográficas que pretendem ensinar uma história do “descobrimento”, da conquista e da colonização da América. Usou-se a metodologia da pesquisa bibliográfica e de campo, com técnica de fichamento e observações analíticas de obras historiográficas contemporâneas, livros didáticos e lugares de memória (museus e monumentos históricos). Em relação aos manuais didáticos, foram selecionados e analisados 18 livros de ensino de História editados por seis editoras no período de 2000 a 2015. Analisou-se a história do “descobrimento…
