THERAPEUTIC EFFICACY OF MAGNESIUM VALPROATE IN SUCCINIC SEMIALDEHYDE DEHYDROGENASE DEFICIENCY
2012
Succinic semialdehyde dehydrogenase deficiency (SSADHD or gammahydroxybutyric aciduria), a disorder of γ-aminobutyric acid (GABA) metabolism, manifests as a slowly progressive or static encephalopathy. The latter encompasses prominent cognitive dysfunction, neuropsychiatric morbidity and epilepsy.We report safe and effective treatment with MgVPA in an adolescent female with SSADHD and seizures refractory to a broad spectrum of antiepileptics. MgVPA therapy (20 mg/Kg/day) was introduced at 7 years based upon behavioural difficulties and EEG alterations without adverse effects. Therapy was halted at age 13 years, and reintroduced at 14 years, due to new onset complex partial seizures. EEG dem…

Gestión de las sequías en la planificación hidrológica. Aplicación al sureste español
2020
La sequía es un riesgo climático con grandes repercusiones sobre los sistemas de abastecimiento para usos urbano-turísticos y agrícolas. Los objetivos de este trabajo son: 1) llevar a cabo una revisión y diagnóstico de las medidas llevadas a cabo en el sureste de España (cuenca hidrográfica del Segura) desde la planificación y la gestión del agua para usos urbanos; y 2) valorar su grado de adaptación durante el episodio de sequía de 2015-19 en relación a las medidas implementadas. Para ello se ha consultado y revisado diversas fuentes documentales. En primer lugar, normativas y leyes que regulan los recursos hídricos en términos de disponibilidad y demandas tanto en situaciones de normalida…
Efficient Analysis of Arbitrarily Shaped Inductive Obstacles in Rectangular Waveguides Using a Surface Integral Equation Formulation
2007
In this paper we propose to use the Surface Integral Equation technique for the analysis of arbitrarily shaped Hplane obstacles in rectangular waveguides, which can contain both metallic and/or dielectric objects. The Green functions are formulated using both spectral and spatial images series, whose convergence behavior has been improved through several acceleration techniques. Proceeding in this way, the convergence of the series is not attached to the employment of any particular basis or test function, thus consequently increasing the flexibility of the implemented technique. In order to test the accuracy and numerical efficiency of the proposed method, results for practical microwave c…
Short implants (8mm) versus longer implants (≥8mm) with lateral sinus floor augmentation in posterior atrophic maxilla: A meta-analysis of RCT`s in h…
2019
Background One of the greatest challenges that dentists face today is to rehabilitate severe atrophied alveolar ridges in partially and completely edentulous patients with implants. Despite the high survival rate of implants placed next to sinus elevation, this technique presents complications that can be avoided by placing short implants, an option that also presents high survival rates. For this reason, the aim of this study is to compare the survival rate, marginal bone loss and complications associated with short implants (<8 mm) versus longer implants (≥8mm) placed with lateral sinus floor elevation in posterior atrophic maxillae. Material and Methods A literature search was conducted …
Sulla legittimazione dell’amministratore di s.p.a. revocato ad impugnare la deliberazione assembleare di revoca
2013
Prendendo le mosse dal provvedimento reso dal tribunale di Palermo, il presente commento procede ad una ricostruzione del dibattito circa la legittimazione dell’amministratore revocato di s.p.a. ad impugnare la stessa deliberazione assembleare di revoca. Rilievo centrale assumono, da un canto, la ricognizione degli interessi tutelati dal meccanismo delle impugnazioni di cui agli artt. 2377 ss. c.c.; e, dall’altro, l’interpretazione di tali disposizioni da parte del tribunale, in ordine alla legittimazione attiva ad impugnare, riconosciuta dal decidente anche all’amministratore revocato. Particolare importanza assume, inoltre, il processo di valutazione comparativa, ex art. 2378, quarto comm…
Sustainable Development and the Practice of Spatial Planning: A Proposal of Criteria for Measuring the Overall Sustainability of Planning Actions in …
2021
The sustainable city debate is gaining ground in recent years, featuring as a prominent issue in several policy documents of the European Commission, and enjoying support by the main organisations and institutions at international level. At the same time, improving local governance standards by involving citizens in local decision-making is a recurring issue in the debate on local democracy and enhancement of community cohesion. This paper presents an analysis of the European experience and best practice relating sustainable development to the day-to-day practice of spatial planning. The overall purpose is creating a proposal of indicators for measuring the sustainability of planning action…

The PREDIMED-Plus trial was supported by the European Research Council (Advanced Research grant 2014–2019; agreement #340918; granted to M.Á.M.-G.); the official Spanish institutions for funding scientific biomedical research, CIBER Fisiopatología de la Obesidad y Nutrición (CIBEROBN) and Instituto de Salud Carlos III (ISCIII) through the Fondo de Investigación para la Salud (FIS) which is co-funded by the European Regional Development Fund (coordinated FIS projects led by J.S-S. and J.V., including the following projects: PI13/00673, PI13/00492, PI13/00272, PI13/01123, PI13/00462, PI13/00233, PI13/02184, PI13/00728, PI13/01090, PI13/01056, PI14/01722, PI14/00636, PI14/00618, PI14/00696, PI…
On the origin of pure optical rotation in twisted-cross metamaterials.
2016
We present an experimental and computational study of the response of twisted-cross metamaterials that provide near dispersionless optical rotation across a broad band of frequencies from 19 GHz to 37 GHz. We compare two distinct geometries: firstly, a bilayer structure comprised of arrays of metallic crosses where the crosses in the second layer are twisted about the layer normal; and secondly where the second layer is replaced by the complementary to the original, i.e. an array of cross-shaped holes. Through numerical modelling we determine the origin of rotatory effects in these two structures. In both, pure optical rotation occurs in a frequency band between two transmission minima, whe…
La comunicación en los foros virtuales: lenguaje, discurso e intercambio de información
2014
Las tecnologías de la información y de la comunicación han modificado de forma muy evidente nuestros mecanismos de comunicación interpersonal, llegando a transformar profundamente tanto las posibilidades, herramientas y modalidades de contacto entre las personas (López-García, 2005), como nuestra manera de construir la información, acceder a ella, almacenarla, reproducirla y difundirla. En la sociedad del conocimiento la información se convierte cada vez más en una verdadera materia prima, ahora mismo muy abundante y valiosa en la red, que es necesario buscar, valorar, gestionar, almacenar y difundir (Castells, 2000). En el presente trabajo esbozaremos algunas de las características princip…
