Reivindicaciones culturales y feminismos disidentes, una mirada nada normalizadora
2020
espanolLas reivindicaciones de las culturas se desajustan del modelo ilustrado, en ese aspecto, el proposito de este ensayo es dilucidar de manera sucinta, las diferentes deconstrucciones y exclusiones culturales que nos encontramos en distintos paradigmas teoricos. La diferencia monopoliza el debate en un escenario multietnico y globalizador. Los feminismos, diferentes entre si, abogan por seguir reconceptualizando terminos, y desmontando argumentos universalizadores, en base a la hibridacion humana, en cambio, no diferencia las imbricaciones a lo largo de la humanidad. No obstante, las culturas son constantes creaciones, recreaciones y negociaciones de fronteras entre nosotros/as y el/la/…

Análisis de polimorfismos en genes que codifican para enzimas que regulan el estrés oxidativo y su relación con la respuesta al tratamiento y la supe…
2015
Los mecanismos de estrés oxidativo están implicados en numerosas condiciones patológicas, entre ellas el inicio, la promoción y la progresión del proceso de carcinogénesis. Los pulmones, son órganos susceptibles de sufrir daños por oxidantes exógenos y por las especies reactivas del oxígeno endógenas generadas por las células inflamatorias. De hecho, en el cáncer de pulmón se ha relacionado el nivel de estrés oxidativo con el pronóstico y el tratamiento y se ha sugerido que los estadios avanzados de cáncer de pulmón exhiben un nivel de estrés oxidativo más elevado que los estadios iniciales, lo que contribuiría a explicar la baja supervivencia en la enfermedad avanzada. Por otra parte, los …
KOSMOS 2018 Gran Canaria mesocosm study: water column biogeochemistry
2021
The data set compiles biogeochemical water column collected during a KOSMOS mesocosm experiment carried out in the frame work of the Ocean Artificial Upwelling project. The experiment was performed in the North-East Atlantic Ocean off the coast of Gran Canaria in autumn 2018 and lasted for 39 days. In this study we investigated the effect of different intensities of artificial upwelling combined with two upwelling modes (recurring additions versus one singular addition) on POC export and its potential transfer efficiency to depth. The data set includes the amounts of surface water that were exchanged with nutrient-rich deep water (from ~300 m depth), primary production and chlorophyll a, el…
KOSMOS 2018 Gran Canaria mesocosm study: particle flux data from sediment trap
2021
The data set compiles sinking flux data collected during a KOSMOS mesocosm experiment carried out in the frame work of the Ocean Artificial Upwelling project. The experiment was performed in the North-East Atlantic Ocean off the coast of Gran Canaria in autumn 2018 and lasted for 39 days. In this study we investigated the effect of different intensities of artificial upwelling combined with two upwelling modes (recurring additions versus one singular addition) on POC export and its potential transfer efficiency to depth. The data set includes the amounts of surface water that were exchanged with nutrient-rich deep water (from ~300 m depth). It also contains particle flux data, i.e. POC flux…
First Report of Anaplasma phagocytophilum and Babesia microti in Rodents in Finland
2014
Tick-borne diseases pose an increasingly important public health problem in Europe. Rodents are the reservoir host for many tick-transmitted pathogens, including Anaplasma phagocytophilum and Babesia microti, which can cause human granulocytic anaplasmosis and babesiosis, respectively. To estimate the presence of these pathogens in rodents in Finland, we examined blood samples from 151 bank voles (Myodes glareolus) and demonstrate, for the first time, that A. phagocytophilum and B. microti commonly infect bank voles (in 22% and 40% of animals, respectively) in Finland. Sequence analysis of a fragment of 18S rRNA showed that the B. microti strain isolated was identical to the Munich strain, …
Borrelia burgdorferi sensu lato and Anaplasma phagocytophilum in Ixodes ricinus ticks in Brønnøysund in northern Norway
2013
Ticks are important vectors of disease for both humans and animals. In Europe, Lyme borreliosis is the most abundant tick-borne human disease, whereas anaplasmosis, or tick-borne fever, is the most widespread tick-borne infection in domestic animals. However, knowledge about the prevalence of the causative disease agents in questing ticks in the northern range of their distribution in Norway is missing. Ixodes ricinus ticks were therefore collected by flagging vegetation in Brønnøysund, an area near the Arctic Circle in Norway where ticks have been abundant for decades. Ticks were analysed for infection with Borrelia burgdorferi sensu lato and Anaplasma phagocytophilum by real-time PCR ampl…
Development and validation of two PCR tests for the detection of and differentiation between Anaplasma ovis and Anaplasma marginale
2012
Anaplasma ovis and Anaplasma marginale are tick-transmitted bacteria that cause anaplasmosis in domestic and wild animals. Recent results show that some domestic and wild animals and ticks are susceptible to both A. ovis and A. marginale, thus supporting the need to differentiate between these species in hosts and ticks diagnosed with Anaplasma infection. However, although anaplasmosis is one of the most common diseases of grazing animals worldwide, rapid and effective tests are not available for the detection of and discrimination between these 2 Anaplasma species. The objective of this research was to develop an easy and reliable method to identify and discriminate between the closely rel…

The cost-effectiveness of neonatal versus prenatal screening for congenital toxoplasmosis
2019
BackgroundCongenital Toxoplasmosis (CT) can have severe consequences. France, Austria, and Slovenia have prenatal screening programs whereas some other countries are considering universal screening to reduce congenital transmission and severity of infection in children. The efficiency of such programs is debated increasingly as seroprevalence among pregnant women and incidence of congenital toxoplasmosis show a steady decrease. In addition, uncertainty remains regarding the effectiveness of pre- and postnatal treatments.MethodTo identify cost-effective strategies, prenatal and neonatal screenings were compared using a decision-analytic model based on French guidelines and current knowledge …
