A systematic approach to medical decision-making of uncommon clinical pictures: A case of ulcerative skin lesions by palm tree thorn injury and a one…
2005
In clinical practice, the clinician is challenged with symptoms and/or signs at times apparently insoluble by diagnostic and/ or therapeutic means. We propose that in these cases, we have to use an EBM approach in which evidence may be looked up in every available clinical report and bibliographic databases are used for searching that evidence. We report on a case of ulcerative skin lesions apparently insoluble by expert dermatologists following a conventional diagnostic and therapeutic process. We use this case report for illustrating a systematic approach to resolve diagnostic and therapeutic questions using a bibliographic database search (like MEDLINE and EMBASE). Both a systematic appr…
La serie monetal ‘Bes/palmera’. Una pseudo-ceca en la Hispania Ulterior
2018
This paper aims at studying an unknown coinage from the Iberian Peninsula depicting the Phoenician god Bes on the obverse and a palm tree on the reverse. Due to their imitative characteristics, these coins are attributed to a pseudo-mint located in Hispania Ulterior in the 1st century BC in relation with a dearth of cash in some areas of actual Andalusia. With parallels to the phenomenon of the pseudo-mint of Ebusus, settled in Pompeii, new hypotheses are suggested as regards the situation in Hispania Ulterior, where all the finds originate. The circulation of Ebusian coinage in Campania led to its imitation in Pompeii. We conclude that a similar phenomenon occurred here, although such an a…
The species Phoenix excelsior Cav., its typification and diversity of complex Ph. dactylifera L. (Arecaceae)
2019
Se analiza y discute la diversidad y nomenclatura dentro del complejo de Phoenix dactylifera valorando la importancia de Phoenix excelsior Cav. para la caracterización del grupo occidental de palmeras datileras cuyo núcleo más definido lo constituye la palmera datilera española. Ante la ausencia de holotipo y de material original de Ph. excelsior se designa un neótipo. The diversity and nomenclature within the Phoenix dactylifera complex is analyzed and discussed, assessing the importance of Phoenix excelsior Cav. for the characterization of the western group of date palms whose most defined core is the Spanish date palm. In the absence of holotype and original material of Ph. excelsior a n…
Stratégies de lutte contre le charançon rouge du palmier
2018
La communauté scientifique internationale (source : publication FAO d’avril 2017) s’accorde sur l’importance de la combinaison des mesures de lutte en fonction des niveaux d’infestation par le charançon rouge du palmier. Plusieurs mesures de lutte sont disponibles ou envisageables : assainissement mécanique, application d’insecticides à titre préventif ou curatif, piégeage de masse et biocontrôle (lutte biologique sensu stricto). Il est à noter que plusieurs expérimentations sur le biocontrôle sont en cours.Dans la perspective d’améliorer les stratégies de lutte contre le charançon rouge du palmier, il est demandé : 1) d’identifier les stratégies de lutte (en tant que combinaison de différe…
