Evidence indicates that communicating and non-communicating hydrocephalus can be two sequential phases of a single pathological phenomenon triggered by ependymal disruption and/or abnormal function of the subcommissural organ. We have hypothesized that a similar phenomenon may occur in human cases with fetal onset hydrocephalus. We report here on a case of human fetal communicating hydrocephalus with no central nervous system abnormalities other than stenosis of the aqueduct of Sylvius (SA) that became non-communicating hydrocephalus during the first postnatal week due to obliteration of the cerebral aqueduct. The case was followed closely by a team of basic and clinic investigators allowing an early diagnosis and prediction of the evolving pathophysio...

Granola cortados o enteros, desinfestados o no, fue evaluada en la zona alta del estado Trujillo (2.400 msnm). Los tubérculos enteros presentaban un peso entre 50 y 70 g y un diámetro de 30 a 50 mm. El corte de los tubérculos se realizó longitudinalmente en dos mitades las cuales fueron desinfestadas o no con productos químicos una semana antes de la siembra. Se evaluó la emergencia de plantas, número de plantas cosechadas, número de tubérculos, rendimiento por categoría y total. La emergencia de plantas y el número de plantas en la cosecha fue significativamente mayor con las semillas enteras que con los tubérculos cortados sin desinfestar. Los tratamientos con semillas enteras fueron superiores en número de tubérculos, difiriendo estadísticamente con relación a aquellos con semilla cortada. La producción de tubérculos del tipo consumo (>60 mm de diámetro y >180 g de peso) fue significativamente menor cuando fueron empleados los tubérculossemilla cortados sin desinfestar. El rendimiento total tendió a ser mayor en las parcelas con plantas originadas de tubérculos enteros, aunque no hubo diferencias significativas entre semilla entera y cortada desinfestada. Esto muestra la inconveniencia de usar tubérculos cortados sin desinfestar como material de plantación en las zonas altas del estado Trujillo. La baja tasa de sobrevivencia en el campo de las plantas de tubérculos-semilla cortados y el rendimiento estuvieron asociados a la presencia del hongo Fusarium sp. y de la bacteria Erwinia carotovora.

Fruit size, cracking point, relative humidity, ash percentage, content and lipid composition was also characterized. Regarding the nutritional composition of the fruit, it was obtained a high content on vegetable fats in whose lipid profile stands out the oleic and palmitoic acid.

Las dosis probadas fueron: 0,5 y 10 mg kg-1, en dos épocas de aplicación: 4 y 7 días antes del corte del follaje. Igualmente el ÁG fue utilizado para la inmersión de tubérculos recién cosechados en la dosis de 5 mg kg-1/10 min., 32 y 47 días después de la cosecha con un diseño experimental de bloques al azar con cuatro repeticiones. Durante el ciclo de crecimiento del cultivo se evaluaron las siguientes variables: porcentaje de emergencia, número de tallos/planta, vigor y altura de plantas; posteriormente se determinó el rendimiento total (RT) y por categoría (RPC), consumo (>200 g de peso) y semilla (entre 30 y 200 g) y en postcosecha, gravedad específica (GE), materia seca (MT), pérdida y porcentaje de peso, número de brotes y...

We carried out a cross-sectional study in a sample population of children aged 2 to 4 from the same metropolitan area. We recruited apparently healthy subjects, and collected clinical, anthropometric, analytical and serological variables. We also tested for anti-gliadin IgA and anti-transglutaminase IgG and IgA using a rapid immunochromatographic test CD1WB and CD2WB (Operon, Zaragoza, Spain). 198 children were recruited, signed the informed consent form and completed the protocol (mean age 32.3 ± 9.2 months, 53% males). CD prevalence according to the serological tests was 3% (CI 95%, 1.4-6.4%). Biopsies were used to confirm the diagnosis in all suspected cases. The sensitivity and negative predictive value of the CD2WB immunochromatographic test strip were 100% and 1, respectively. The sensitivity of CD1WB was 16.6% and its specificity was high (89.1%). The prevalence of subclinical CD in the sample group of 2 to 4 year-olds was higher than that found by other authors. The CD2WB immunochromatographic test strip is an excellent diagnostic screening tool with high sensitivity and negative predictive value.Pediatric Research (2015); doi:10.1038/pr.2015.98.

However, there is still no analytical specific diagnostic criterion for this disease. The aim was to examine a possible role of fractalkine as a biomarker in fibromyalgia. Plasma levels of soluble fractalkine were compared between women diagnosed with fibromyalgia (n=17) and healthy women (n=10) as controls. Fractalkine released by monocytes was also evaluated. Fibromyalgia patients showed lower plasma fractalkine than healthy women. Since most inflammatory pathologies show elevated plasma levels of soluble fractalkine, the results may contribute towards a differential diagnosis for fibromyalgia.

The cross sections are measured by selecting leptonic decays of the W and Z bosons, and photons with transverse energy ET>7 GeV that are well separated from leptons. The production cross
