Discusiones doctrinales y problemas de traducción: La representación de la Santísima Trinidad, la Virgen María y los ángeles en La fazienda de Ultramar; Doctrinal disputes and translation problems: The depiction of the Holy Trinity, the Virgin Mary and angels in La fazienda de Ultramar Marti, Melisa Laura La fazienda de Ultramar es un texto del siglo XIII que traduce la Biblia a la manera de los itinerarios o guías de peregrinos medievales: en él, la selección de pasajes de la Escritura está motivada por la geografía de Tierra Santa, que orienta el recorrido por los relatos bíblicos. El objetivo de este trabajo será profundizar en las operaciones discursivas que diferencian a La fazienda de Ultramar de sus fuentes y de otros romanceamientos, y que reflejan las dificultades que enfrentaban los primeros traductores de la Biblia a las lenguas vernáculas. Nos centraremos específicamente en los aspectos que se vinculan con los debates de índole doctrinal y las discusiones teológicas propias del momento de redacción de la obra. Por ello, analizaremos la representación de la Santísima Trinidad, la Virgen María y los ángeles, augurando que nos permitirá conocer el sistema cultural en que se ubicaba el autor y su modo de trabajo en tanto traductor.; La fazienda de Ultramar is a thirteenth-century translation of the Bible that replicates the structure of the medieval itineraries or pilgrim narratives: the selection of passages from Scripture is motivated by the geography of the Holy Land, which guides the way through biblical stories. This study aims to deepen into the discursive operations that separate La fazienda de Ultramar from its sources and other translations of the Bible, and which reflect the difficulties and issues met by the first translators of the Bible into vernacular languages. We will specifically reflect upon those which are connected with doctrinal debates and theological discussions relevant at the time of the composition of the work. Therefore, we will analyse the representation of the Holy Trinity, the Virgin Mary and angels, hoping it will allow us to comprehend the cultural system its author inhabited and the techniques he incorporated as a translator.

Weighing stars from birth to death: mass determination methods across the HRD Serenelli, Aldo; Weiss, Achim; Aerts, Conny; Angelou, George C.; Baroch, David; Bastian, Nate; Beck, Paul G.; Bergemann, Maria; Bestenlehner, Joachim M.; Czekala, Ian; Elias-Rosa, Nancy; Escorza, Ana; Van Eylen, Vincent; Feuillet, Diane K.; Gandolfi, Davide; Gieles, Mark; Girardi, Leonardo Jose; Lebreton, Yveline; Lodieu, Nicolas; Martig, Marie; Miller Bertolami, Marcelo Miguel; Mombarg, Joey S.G.; Morales, Juan Carlos; Moya, Andrés; Nsamba, Benard; Pavlovski, Krešimir; Pedersen, May G.; Ribas, Ignasi; Schneider, Fabian R.N.; Silva Aguirre, Victor The mass of a star is the most fundamental parameter for its structure, evolution, and final fate. It is particularly important for any kind of stellar archaeology and characterization of exoplanets. There exist a variety of methods in astronomy to estimate or determine it. In this review we present a significant number of such methods, beginning with the most direct and model-independent approach using detached eclipsing binaries. We then move to more indirect and model-dependent methods, such as the quite commonly used isochrone or stellar track fitting. The arrival of quantitative asteroseismology has opened a completely new approach to determine stellar masses and to complement and improve the accuracy of other methods. We include methods for different evolutionary stages, from the pre-main sequence to evolved (super)giants and final remnants. For all methods uncertainties and restrictions will be discussed. We provide lists of altogether more than 200 benchmark stars with relative mass accuracies between [0.3 ,2 ]% for the covered mass range of M ∈[0.1 ,16 ] M⊙ , 75 % of which are stars burning hydrogen in their core and the other 25 % covering all other evolved stages. We close with a recommendation how to combine various methods to arrive at a "mass-ladder" for stars.

Líos que esclarecer: política y faccionalismo durante el primer peronismo en Mendoza, 1945-1955; Messes to be Cleared Up. Politics and Factionalism during the First Peronism in Mendoza, 1945-1955; Confusões para esclarecer. Política e faccionalismo durante o primeiro peronismo em Mendoza, 1945-1955 Garzón Rogé, Mariana Este artículo describe la vida interna de un peronismo delinterior del país a través del seguimiento de las dinámicas de sus principalesactores políticos, provenientes del radicalismo y allegados al mundo sindicalvernáculo. Mediante el análisis de conflictos y acuerdos en torno a momentoselectorales y de disputa partidaria en la provincia de Mendoza, se constatacómo fue transformándose el peronismo en un espacio local entre 1945 y 1955. Elprincipal aporte del trabajo es su llamado de atención para pensar a losactores como partícipes activos de la configuración de disputas y solucionessituadas que los involucraron. Se sostiene que si el peronismo fue con eltiempo adoptando modalidades más enrevesadas de lidiar con los problemasinternos fue también como consecuencia de conveniencias y acomodamientos de lospropios actores provinciales que coyuntural y parcialmente se beneficiaban deesas resoluciones en una variedad de situaciones que requieren ser esclarecidasen cada caso. Se trabaja a partir del análisis documental de prensa gráfica,desde una perspectiva de historia pragmática sobre las fuentes, es decir, desdeun enfoque que las considera, ante todo, como una reivindicación en el presentede la acción que les dio origen.; This article describes Peronism´s internal life in the interior of the country by following the dynamics of the most important political actors coming from radicalism and coming from the vernacular trade union world in a local space. Through the analysis of conflicts and agreements around electoral moments and partisan disputes in the province of Mendoza, it verifies how Peronism transformed in a local space between 1945 and 1955. The main contribution of the research is its call for attention to think actors as active participants in the configuration of disputes and situated solutions involving them. It is argued that if Peronism adopted more complicated ways of dealing with internal problems throughout time, it was also as a consequence of the conveniences and adjustments of the provincial actors themselves, who temporarily and partially benefited from these resolutions in a variety of situations which need to be specifically investigated. These conclusions are obtained through the documentary analysis of graphic local press, from a pragmatic history perspective of the sources, that is, from an approach that considers them, above all, as a present vindication of the action giving rise to them.; Este artigo descreve a vida interna de um peronismo no interior do país monitorando a dinâmica de seus principais atores políticos, oriundos do radicalismo e próximos ao mundo sindical vernáculo. Por meio da análise dos conflitos e acordos em torno dos momentos eleitorais e da disputa partidária na província de Mendoza, verifica-se como o peronismo foi se transformando em um espaço local entre 1945 e 1955. A principal contribuição do trabalho é a chamada de atenção para pensar aos atores como participantes ativos na configuração das disputas e soluções situadas que os envolveram. Argumenta-se que, se o peronismo ao longo do tempo adotou formas mais complicadas de lidar com os problemas internos, isso foi também uma consequência da conveniência e acomodação dos próprios atores provinciais, que temporariamente e parcialmente se beneficiaram dessas resoluções em uma variedade de situações que precisam ser esclarecidas em cada caso. Trabalha-se a partir da análise documental da imprensa gráfica, de uma perspectiva da história pragmática das fontes, ou seja, de uma abordagem que as considera, antes de tudo, como uma reivindicação no presente da ação que lhes deu origem.

Effect of bovine viral diarrhea virus on subsequent infectivity of bovine gammaherpesvirus 4 in endometrial cells in primary culture: An in vitro model of viral co-infection Romeo, Florencia; Louge Uriarte, Enrique Leopoldo; Delgado, Santiago Germán; Gonzalez Altamiranda, Erika Analia; Pereyra, Susana Beatriz; Morán, Pedro Edgardo; Perez, Sandra; Verna, Andrea Elizabeth Bovine viral diarrhea virus (BVDV) and bovine gammaherpesvirus 4 (BoHV-4) infect the uterus of cattle, being responsible for huge economic losses. Most of the pathogenesis of BoHV-4 in the bovine reproductive tract has been elucidated by conducting tests on primary cultures. Thus, it is important to have optimal in vitro conditions, avoiding the presence of other pathogens that can alter the results. BVDV is one of the most frequent viral contaminants of cell cultures. Considering that non-cytopathic (NCP) BVDV biotype can generate persistently infected (PI) cattle, which are the major source for virus transmission in susceptible herds, it is important to check products derived from cattle that are intended to be used in research laboratories. The aim of this work was to evaluate how the natural infection of bovine endometrial cells (BEC) with a NCP BVDV strain (BEC + BVDV) affects BoHV-4 replication. We have demonstrated a delay in BoHV-4 gene expression and a decrease in viral load in the extracellular environment in BEC + BDVD cells compared to BEC (BVDV-free) cells. These results confirm that replication of BoHV-4 in BEC primary cultures is affected by previous infection with BVDV. This finding highlights the importance of ruling out BVDV infection in bovine primary cell cultures to avoid biological interference or misinterpretation of results at the time of performing in vitro studies with BoHV-4.

Can shell shape be used to find the origin of South American mussels? Trivellini, Maria Magdalena; Van Der Molen, Silvina; Filun, Luis; Marquez, Federico In the context of food sovereignty, it is essential to distinguish and give value to national products, especially those from artisanal production. Argentina and Chile mussel production occurs at different scales (artisanal vs industrial), is targeted to different species and is developed in different environmental contexts, but in the market the two products are labelled and offered as the same. We evaluated the use of the shell shape to distinguish between mussels from these two countries and among crops, using Landmark-based geometric morphometrics. We compared individuals from five crops from Argentina and six from Chile to assess their shell shape variations using various multivariate statistical methods. Our results showed significant differences between the average shell shape from each country. While crops from Argentina were different among themselves, the crops from Chile were similar. The misclassification rate, using the shell shape variables, between countries was lower than 3%. We hypothesize that the shell shape variations inside the country reflect the environmental effect on the phenotype. Our results show noticeable differences in the shell shape between South American mussels from Chile and Argentina, proving that the shell shape variation could be used as a biomarker to the designation of origin of the product.

Interoception primes emotional processing: multimodal evidence from neurodegeneration Salamone, Paula Celeste; Legaz, Agustina; Sedeño, Lucas; Moguilner, Sebastian Gabriel; Fraile Vázquez, Matías; Gonzalez Campo, Cecilia; Fittipaldi, María Sol; Yoris, Adrián Isidro; Miranda, Magdalena; Birba, Agustina; Galiani, Agustina; Abrevaya, Sofia; Neely, Alejandra; Martorell Caro, Miguel Angel; Alifano Ferrero, Florencia; Villagra, Roque; Anunziata, Florencia; Oliveira, Maira Okada de; Pautassi, Ricardo Marcos; Slachevsky, Andrea; Serrano, Cecilia Mariela; García, Adolfo Martín; Ibáñez, Santiago Agustín Recent frameworks in cognitive neuroscience and behavioral neurology underscore interoceptive priors as core modulators of negative emotions. However, the field lacks experimental designs manipulating the priming of emotions via interoception and exploring their multimodal signatures in neurodegenerative models. Here, we designed a novel task that involves interoceptive and control-exteroceptive priming conditions followed by post-interoception and post-exteroception facial emotion recognition (FER). We recruited 114 participants, including healthy controls (HCs) as well as patients with behavioral variant frontotemporal dementia (bvFTD), Parkinson's disease (PD), and Alzheimer's disease (AD). We measured online EEG modulations of the heart-evoked potential (HEP), and associations with both brain structural and resting-state functional connectivity patterns. Behaviorally, post-interoception negative FER was enhanced in HCs but selectively disrupted in bvFTD and PD, with AD presenting generalized disruptions across emotion types. Only bvFTD presented impaired interoceptive accuracy. Increased HEP modulations during post-interoception negative FER was observed in HCs and AD, but not in bvFTD or PD patients. Across all groups, post-interoception negative FER correlated with the volume of the insula and the ACC. Also, negative FER was associated with functional connectivity along the (a) salience network in the post-interoception condition, and along the (b) executive network in the post-exteroception condition. These patterns were selectively disrupted in bvFTD (a) and PD (b), respectively. Our approach underscores the multidimensional impact of interoception on emotion, while revealing a specific pathophysiological marker of bvFTD. These findings inform a promising theoretical and clinical agenda in the fields of nteroception, emotion, allostasis, and neurodegeneration.

La cuestión del poder en la obra de Deleuze; The question of power in Deleuze’s work Antonelli Marangi, Marcelo Sebastián En este artículo abordamos la cuestión del poder en el pensamiento de Deleuze. Según nuestra hipótesis, no hay en su obra un único concepto de poder sino diferentes enfoques (el poder como estrato, control, juicio) no incompatibles entre sí pero que no se dejan reducir a un solo punto de vista. Esta variedad de abordajes puede ser reunida alrededor de dos posiciones generales adoptadas por Deleuze: primero, tiende a relativizar su eficacia respecto de otros elementos más fundamentales (el deseo, los flujos del campo social, las líneas de fuga, la vitalidad inorgánica), realzando así los límites o la impotencia del poder; segundo, le quita valor con relación a otras entidades y procesos en los que deposita su apuesta filosófica (la creación, el devenir, la potencia). Nos proponemos desarrollar estas perspectivas a fin de ofrecer un panorama integral de una temática relevante de la filosofía política deleuziana.; In this article, we address the question of power in Deleuze's thinking. According to our hypothesis, there is not a single concept of power in his work, but different approaches (power as a stratum, control, judgment) not incompatible with each other but that cannot be reduced to a single point of view. This variety of approaches can be gathered around two general positions about power, adopted by Deleuze: first, he tends to relativize its effectiveness with respect to other more fundamental elements (desire, flows, lines of flight, inorganic vitality), thus enhancing the limits or impotence of power; second, he takes away value in relation to other entities and processes in which he places his philosophical commitment (creation, becoming, puissance). We intend to develop these perspectives in order to offer a comprehensive overview of a relevant theme of Deleuzian political philosophy.

Los estudios sociales del comer: cultura, gusto y consumo; Social studies of eating: culture, taste and consumption; Os estudos sociais da alimentação: cultura, gosto e consumo Boragnio, Aldana Alimentarse es una conducta dirigida a obtener la energía para llevar a cabo las funciones que mantienen el funcionamiento del organismo a la vez que el desarrollo de sus capacidades físico-cognitivas. Sin embargo, el comer se constituye como un complejo sistema de relaciones socioculturales, de cohesión y de conflictividad. Por lo cual, para comprender por qué se come lo que se come debemos situar ese acto alimentario en un contexto, en una sociedad, un tiempo y un espacio determinado. En las ciudades el acceso depende del mercado y del Estado que compete a la producción, disponibilidad, circulación y consumo de alimentos. El presente artículo busca plantear un recorrido teórico a partir de autores que nos permitan centrarnos en los cruces y entramados que se desprenden de la relación entre la comida como hecho cultural, el gusto como sentido organizado y configurado culturalmente y el consumo alimentario en la conformación del comensal actual como objeto de investigación desde los estudios sociales.; Feeding is a behaviour aimed at obtaining the energy to carry out the functions that maintain the organism running as well as the development of its physicalcognitive abilities. However, eating is constituted as a complex system of sociocultural relationships, cohesion and conflict. Therefore, to understand why you eat what you eat we must place this food act within a context, a society, a specific time and space. In cities, the access depends on the market and on the State which is the responsible for the food production, availability, circulation and consumption. This article seeks to propose a theoretical journey from authors that allow us to focus on the intersections and frameworks that emerge from the relationship between food as a cultural fact, taste as a culturally organized and shaped sense, and food consumption in the creation of the current guest as a research object from social studies.; Alimentar-se é um comportamento que visa obter a energia para desempenhar as funções que mantêm o funcionamento do organismo, como assim também como o desenvolvimento de suas habilidades físicocognitivas. No entanto, o comer constitui-se como um sistema complexo de relações socioculturais, de coesão e de conflito. Portanto, para entender por que se come o que come, devemos colocar o ato da alimentação em um contexto, em uma sociedade, em um tempo e espaço específicos. Nas cidades, o acesso depende do mercado e do Estado responsável pela produção, disponibilidade, circulação e consumo de alimentos. Este artigo procura propor um percorrido teórico de autores que nos permita focar nas interseções e estruturas que emergem da relação entre a comida como um fato cultural, o gosto como um sentido culturalmente organizado e configurado culturalmente, e o consumo de alimentos na conformação do comensal atual como objeto de pesquisa desde os estudos sociais.

La serpiente en el seno: culpas y condenas: Una figura especular en el caso de Ortel Banedre en el Persiles D'onofrio, María Julia Desde una mirada que atiende al diálogo de la obra de Cervantes con el simbolismo de su época, cabe interrogarse sobre la presencia de los animales en las representaciones discursivas de carácter simbólico. Es en este marco de análisis que enfocamos nuestra atención en el episodio de Ortel Banedre y Luisa la Talaverana en el Persiles. La imagen que proponemos analizar, la de la serpiente en el seno, tiene la particularidad de resonar de manera significativa en las obras finales de Cervantes porque aparece repetida en todos los comentarios sobre la expulsión de los moriscos.; From a point of view that is attentive to the dialogue between the works of Cervantes and the symbolism of his time, one can ponder on the presence of animals in discursive representations of symbolic character. In this framework of analysis we are going to focus our attention on the episode of Ortel Banedre and Luisa la Talaverana in Persiles. The image that we propose to analyze, that one of the snake in the bosom, has the particularity of resonating significantly in the final works of Cervantes because it appears repeatedly in every comment about the expulsion of the Moriscos.

Una revisión meta-teórica respecto a la operatividad de límites metodológicos, epistémicos y ontológicos en la investigación psico-clínica en torno a la eficacia psicoterapéutica de las prácticas espirituales; A meta-theoretical review regarding the operability of methodological, epistemic and ontological reductionisms in psychoclinical research around the psychotherapeutic efficacy of the spiritual practices Gargiulo, María Teresa El artículo no es sino una revisión meta-teórica respecto a la operatividad de los reduccionismos metodológicos, epistémicos y ontológicos en la investigación psico-clínica en torno a la eficacia psicoterapéutica de las prácticas espirituales. Por reduccionismo se entiende el proceso de simplificación y operatividad que exige el mismo diseño experimental adoptado en la investigación psico-clínica. Si bien el reduccionismo que se implementa en un diseño experimental goza de toda una suerte de ventajas, también tiene sus peligros. Podría decirse que existe una compensación, a saber, las explicaciones reduccionistas ganan en simplicidad mientras pierden en precisión. El diseño experimental exige una simplificación, es decir, eliminar cosas que necesitan ser entendidas y que son parte de una imagen completa del fenómeno estudiado. Ahora bien, una revisión meta-teórica permite no sólo explicitar el alcance que tienen los reduccionismos en los resultados de la investigación psico-clínica sino también repensar nuevas variables o modalidades que permitan fortalecer dichas investigaciones.; The article is nothing but a meta-theoretical review regarding the operativeness of methodological, epistemic and ontological reductionisms in psycho-clinical research regarding the psychotherapeutic efficacy of spiritual practices. By reductionism ismeant the process of simplification and operability that requires the same experimental design adopted in psycho-clinical research. Although the reductionism that is implemented in an experimental design enjoys all kinds of advantages, it also has its dangers. It could be said that a compensation exists, namely, reductionist explanations gain in simplicity while losing in precision. The experimental design requires a simplification, that is, eliminating things that need to be understood and that are part of a complete picture of the phenomenon we are studying. However, a meta-theoretical review allows not only to explain the scope of reductionism in the results of psycho-clinical research but also to rethink new variables or modalities that allow strengthening such research.

Phospholipid transfer to high-density lipoprotein (HDL) upon triglyceride lipolysis is directly correlated with HDL-cholesterol levels and is not associated with cardiovascular risk Ma, Feng; Darabi, Maryam; Lhomme, Marie; Tubeuf, Emilie; Canicio, Aurélie; Brerault, Jean; Medadje, Narcisse; Rached, Fabiana; Lebreton, Sandrine; Frisdal, Eric; Brites, Fernando Daniel; Serrano, Carlos; Santos, Raul; Gautier, Emmanuel; Huby, Thierry; El Khoury, Petra; Carrié, Alain; Abifadel, Marianne; Bruckert, Eric; Guerin, Maryse; Couvert, Philippe; Giral, Philippe; Lesnik, Philippe; Le Goff, Wilfried; Guillas, Isabelle; Kontush, Anatol Background and aims: While low concentrations of high-density lipoprotein-cholesterol (HDL-C) represent a well-established cardiovascular risk factor, extremely high HDL-C is paradoxically associated with elevated cardiovascular risk, resulting in the U-shape relationship with cardiovascular disease. Free cholesterol transfer to HDL upon lipolysis of triglyceride-rich lipoproteins (TGRL) was recently reported to underlie this relationship, linking HDL-C to triglyceride metabolism and atherosclerosis. In addition to free cholesterol, other surface components of TGRL, primarily phospholipids, are transferred to HDL during lipolysis. It remains indeterminate as to whether such transfer is linked to HDL-C and cardiovascular disease. Methods and results: When TGRL was labelled with fluorescent phospholipid 1,1′-dioctadecyl-3,3,3′,3′-tetramethylindocarbocyanine perchlorate (DiI), time- and dose-dependent transfer of DiI to HDL was observed upon incubations with lipoprotein lipase (LPL). The capacity of HDL to acquire DiI was decreased by −36% (p<0.001) in low HDL-C patients with acute myocardial infarction (n = 22) and by -95% (p<0.001) in low HDL-C subjects with Tangier disease (n = 7), unchanged in low HDL-C patients with Type 2 diabetes (n = 17) and in subjects with high HDL-C (n = 20), and elevated in subjects with extremely high HDL-C (+11%, p<0.05) relative to healthy normolipidemic controls. Across all the populations combined, HDL capacity to acquire DiI was directly correlated with HDL-C (r = 0.58, p<0.001). No relationship of HDL capacity to acquire DiI with both overall and cardiovascular mortality obtained from epidemiological studies for the mean HDL-C levels observed in the studied populations was obtained. Conclusions: These data indicate that the capacity of HDL to acquire phospholipid from TGRL upon LPL-mediated lipolysis is proportional to HDL-C and does not reflect cardiovascular risk in subjects widely differing in HDL-C levels.

Renal and non-renal response of ABC and SLC transporters in chronic kidney disease Torres, Adriana Monica; Dnyanmote, Ankur V.; Granados, Jeffry C.; Nigam, Sanjay K. Introduction: The solute carrier (SLC) and the ATP-binding cassette (ABC) transporter superfamilies play essential roles in the disposition of small molecules (endogenous metabolites, uremic toxins, drugs) in the blood, kidney, liver, intestine, and other organs. In chronic kidney disease (CKD), the loss of renal function is associated with altered function of remote organs. As renal function declines, many molecules accumulate in the plasma. Many studies now support the view that ABC and SLC transporters as well as drug metabolizing enzymes (DMEs) in renal and non-renal tissues are directly or indirectly affected by the presence of various types of uremic toxins, including those derived from the gut microbiome; this can lead to aberrant inter-organ communication. Areas covered: Here, the expression, localization and/or function of various SLC and ABC transporters as well as DMEs in the kidney and other organs are discussed in the context of CKD and systemic pathophysiology. Expert opinion: According to the Remote Sensing and Signaling Theory (RSST), a transporter and DMEcentric network that optimizes local and systemic metabolism maintains homeostasis in the steady state and resets homeostasis following perturbations due to renal dysfunction. The implications of this view for pharmacotherapy of CKD are also discussed.

Caza furtiva: apropiaciones del conocimiento escolar en escuelas secundarias en cárceles de la provincia de Santa Fe; Poaching: appropriation of school contents in secondary education in prison in the province of Santa Fe, Argentina Routier, Maria Eva En el presente trabajo analizamos las interacciones entre docentes y estudiantes, mediadas por los procesos de enseñar y aprender, documentadas en el contexto de dos escuelas secundarias para adultos que funcionan dentro de dos unidades penitenciarias pertenecientes al Sistema Penitenciario de Santa Fe. Describimos algunas de las formas de participación estudiantil y circulación de la palabra en clases para indagar en los modos en que los estudiantes transitan la apropiación de los conocimientos escolares y los sentidos que ello adquiere en el transcurrir de sus experiencias educativas en contextos de encierro. Se reconocen formas de apelación solapada frente a determinados contenidos y frente a los modos en que éstos son formalizados por los docentes, -expresados en un interés por particularizarlos, volviéndolos inteligibles en base a la propia experiencia -; así como la centralidad que tiene para los estudiantes la adquisición de ciertos saberes “encontrados” en la escuela, considerados especialmente valiosos.; In this paper, we analyze teacher-student interaction as part of the learning process in the context of two adult secondary schools in two penitentiary units belonging to the Santa Fe Penitentiary System. We describe some ways of student participation and communication in class to investigate how students appropriate knowledge and what it means in the course of their educational experiences in confined contexts. We recognize forms of indirect re-examination of school contents and of the ways in which these contents have been formalized by teachers—expressed in an interest to particularize them, in an attempt to understand them based on their own experience—and identify the importance that the acquisition of certain valuable knowledge “found” in school has for students.

Prognostic assessment for chronic myelomonocytic leukemia in the context of the World Health Organization 2016 proposal: a multicenter study of 280 patients González, Jacqueline S.; Perusini, María Agustina; Basquiera, Ana Lisa; Alfonso, Graciela; Fantl, Dorotea; Macedo Lima, Walter; Nucifora, Elsa Mercedes; Lazzarino, Carolina; Novoa, Viviana; Cavalcanti de Andrade Silva, Marcela; Larripa, Irene Beatriz; Rocha, Vanderson; Arbelbide, Jorge; Velloso, Elvira D. R. P.; Belli, Carolina Bárbara Knowledge on chronic myelomonocytic leukemia (CMML) patients from Argentina and Brazil is limited. Our series of 280 patients depicted an older age at diagnosis (median 72 years old), 26% of aberrant karyotypes, and a prevalence of myelodysplastic (60%) and CMML-0 subtypes (56%). The median overall survival (OS) was 48.2 months for patients in CMML-0 (Ref.), 24.7 months for those in CMML-1 (HR = 2.0, p = 0.001), and 8.8 months for patients in CMML-2 (HR = 4.6, p < 0.001). In the CMML-0 category, median OS were different between myelodysplastic and myeloproliferative subtypes (63.7 vs 21.2 months, p < 0.001); however, no differences were observed within CMML-1 and CMML-2 subtypes (24.7 vs 23.7 months, p = 0.540, and 9.1 vs 8.2 months, p = 0.160). The prognostic impact of 24 variables and 7 prognostic systems was adjusted to the WHO 2016 after validating their usefulness. Multivariate analysis were performed, and the final model revealed Hb ≥ 8 -< 10g/dL (HR 1.7), Hb < 8g/dL (HR 2.8), poor karyotypes (HR 2.1), WHO 2016-CMML-1 (HR 2.1), and CMML-2 (HR 3.5) as independent adverse clinical parameters in our cohort with a borderline influence of platelets count < 50 × 109/L (HR 1.4). We could validate several scoring systems, the WHO 2016 proposal and its prognostic capability, along with accessible covariates, on predicting the outcome in our series of CMML patients from Latin America.

Biofilm formation by LEE-negative Shiga Toxin–Producing Escherichia coli strains Velez, Maria Victoria; Colello, Rocío; Etcheverria, Silvina Graciela; Etcheverría, Analía Inés; Padola, Nora Lía Shiga toxin-producing Escherichia coli (STEC) include several serotypes isolated from cases of hemorrhagic colitis and, hemolytic uremic syndrome. Although O157:H7 is the most predominant STEC serotype, more than 100 non-O157 serogroups cause diseases in humans. Some STEC carry a Locus of Enterocyte Effacement (LEE-positive); however, STEC that do not carry LEE (LEE-negative) have also been associated with illness, mainly those harbouring the Locus of Adhesion and Autoaggregation (LAA). LAA carry some genes such as hes, iha, tpsA, and agn43, related with pathogenicity. One of them is the ability to form biofilms on different environments, which can contaminate food and generate infections while protecting themselves against adverse conditions. Considering that LAA could be responsible for some adherence mechanisms, the aims of this study were to compare different serogroup of LEE-negative STEC strains in their ability to form biofilms and to evaluate the participation of some genes encoding in LAA. A total of 348 LEE-negative STEC strains was analyzed. The presence of hes, iha, tpsA and agn43 were determined by monoplex PCR. From them, 48 STEC strains belonging to serogroups O113, O130, O171, O174 and, O178 were assayed for their ability to form biofilm. The most prevalent genes detected were agn43 (72.1%) and tpsA (69.5%). The iha and hes genes were present in 63.7% and 54% of the strains, respectively. Although all STEC strains were able to form biofilm, it was found a high variability between them. The relation between the biofilm formation and the presence of each gene was not statistically significant, suggesting that biofilm formation is independent of the presence of those genes. Highlighting that there is no treatment for HUS, it is once again notable that prevention measures and control strategies to prevent biofilm formation are important factors in reducing STEC transmission.

Entre ideas conservadoras y liberales: Un análisis de posturas valorativas de estudiantes y docentes de profesorados; Between liberal and conservative ideas: An analysis of value positions in students and teachers of professoriate Expósito, Cristián David; Difabio, Hilda Emilia La finalidad de este estudio fue indagar los perfiles valorativos de docentes en ejercicio y en formación, en base a dos modelos axiológicos considerados antagónicos (conservador y liberal), cada uno con una estructura bien definida. Cabe destacar que los enfoques teóricos no se presentan puros en la realidad debido a su profunda complejidad; sin embargo, este tipo de estudios permite vislumbrar cuál es el camino que la sociedad considera oportuno o viable para avanzar hacia el futuro. Se utilizó un diseño metodológicocuantitativo, de tipo descriptivo y de corte transversal. Los participantes relevados de primera fuente fueron estudiantes de profesorado de tercer año de los 5 institutos de formación docente más representativos de la Capital de Mendoza (Argentina) y sus respectivos docentes. La muestra fue de carácter intencional (n=337) con un alto porcentaje de mujeres (91,1%). Los resultados permitieron identificar tres factores: Autonomía, Igualdad y Tradición; a partir de ellos fue posible discriminar tendencias y perfiles predominantes.; The purpose of this research was to identify the axiological profiles of practicing and training teachers, based on two axiological models considered antagonistic (conservative and liberal), each one with a well-defined structure. Theoretical approaches are not presented pure in reality due to their profound complexity, however, this type of study allows us to glimpse what is the path that society considers opportune or viable to advance towards the future. A quantitative, descriptive and cross-sectional methodological design was used. The participants surveyed from the first source were third-year teacher students from the 5 most representative teacher training institutes in the Capital of Mendoza (Argentina) and their respective professors. The sample was intentional (n = 337) with a high percentage of women (91.1%). The results allowed identifying three factors: Autonomy, Equality and Tradition, from them it was possible to discriminate prevailing trends and profiles.

Controlling the structure and photocatalytic properties of three - dimensional aerogels obtained by simultaneous reduction and self-assembly of BiOI/GO aqueous colloidal dispersions Puig, Julieta; De Castro Alves, Lisandra; García Acevedo, Pelayo; Arnosa Prieto, Angela; Yañez Villar, Susana; Teijeiro Valiño, Carmen; piñeiro, yolanda; Hoppe, Cristina Elena; Rivas, Jose Water pollution affects all living habitats, since it is the most basic element that sustains all life forms and, as an exceptional solvent, it readily makes any compound available for living cells, either nutrients or noxious substances. Elimination of molecular contaminants from water quality is one of the most challenging technical problems that conventional treatments like flocculation and filtration fail short to defeat. Particulate photocatalysts, used to degrade contaminants, have the main drawback of their recovery from the water matrices. The inclusion of photocatalytic nanoparticles (NPs) into a large supporting framework, is presented as an innovative approach aiming to ensure a facile separation from water. To this end, three-dimensional (3D) aerogels with photocatalytic properties were prepared by a simple and scalable method based on the reduction - induced self-assembly of graphene oxide (GO) in the presence of BiOI nanoparticles (NPs). With the help of ascorbic acid, as a green reducing agent, partial reduction of GO into reduced graphene oxide (RGO) and self-assembly of both kinds of nanostructures into a porous monolith was achieved. BiOI doped RGO aerogels were further stabilized and morphologically controlled using poly (ethylene glycol) as stabilizer. The photocatalytic performance of these aerogels was evaluated by following the discoloration of methylene blue (MB) solution, under visible light irradiation, showing that structure and dispersion degree of NPs to be fundamental variables. Hence, this methodology is proposed to produce hybrid aerogels with controlled morphology and photocatalytic performance that has the potential to be used in water cleaning procedures.

Disturbance as a driver of trait assembly in liana communities in a semi-deciduous Atlantic Forest Villagra, Mariana; Trentini, Carolina Paola; Di Francescantonio, Débora; Aguiar Eleuterio, Ana Alice; Foletto, Luis Fernando; Montti, Lia Fernanda; Campanello, Paula Inés Subtropical forests have been under constant pressure due to drastic changes in land use, fragmentation, and logging. These impacts can alter the canopy cover, structure, species composition, and functional characteristics of plant communities. Here, we assess whether structural and functional properties of the liana community change in forests that were differently disturbed in the past. For this purpose, six 1-ha plots were established in closed and open canopy forests in the Atlantic Forest of Northern Argentina. Lianas were measured and identified and plant material was collected to determine specific leaf area, leaf dry matter content, and wood density. Species richness of lianas was similar, but the abundance and basal area were significantly higher in open canopy than in closed canopy plots. This difference was primarily the result of a higher abundance of scramblers in open canopy plots, while tendrilled lianas were negatively affected by low tree density and basal area. The abundance of large scrambler lianas was lower in sites with high tree density. On the other hand, scramblers had lower wood density and leaf dry matter content than tendril climbers and twiners had the lowest specific leaf area values. Consequently, liana communities in open canopy forests were associated with a rapid resource acquisition strategy and lower functional diversity which could be possibly driven by changes in environmental variables typical of large gaps (light availability, temperature, and soil fertility). Our results highlight a shift in liana climbing mechanisms and in the function of liana communities in disturbed forest, becoming dominated by lianas with similar functional traits. Future studies should assess the relative importance of changes of liana communities shedding light on climbing-type-level effects on tree growth and forest functioning.

Aprender a vivir mediante la filosofía: Notas sobre la concepción hegeliana de la filosofía en los primeros escritos de Jena; Durch Philosophie Leben Lernen: Notes on the Hegelian conception of philosophy in Jena’s early writings Palermo, Sandra Viviana Este paper intenta dar cuenta del concepto de filosofía elaborado por Hegel, en los primeros años de Jena, como instancia más acabada de reconciliación de las escisiones propias de la cultura moderna. Se intenta mostrar que, a pesar de las diferencias existentes entre el Hegel jenense y el Hegel sucesivo a la Fenomenología del espíritu, la idea de la filosofía como lugar de conciliación se mantiene, lo que no implica, un pactar con la realidad ni un pensar la actividad intelectual como refugio incontaminado, sino como lugar de transfiguración unitaria del mundo efectivamente existente.; This paper aims to highlight the Hegelian concept of philosophy, in the early years of his stay in Jena, as the most fulfilled instance of reconciliation of the splits of to modern culture. It tries to show that, despite the existing differences between this period of Hegelian production and the period following the Phenomenology of Spirit, the idea of philosophy as an instance of reconciliation is maintained, which does not imply, for Hegel, either pacting with reality or thinking intellectual activity as an uncontaminated refuge. Thought is instead an operation of unitary transfiguration of the effectively existing world.

Impact of N-fertilization and peanut shell biochar on soil microbial community structure and enzyme activities in a Typic Haplustoll under different management practices Dominchin, Maria Florencia; Verdenelli, Romina Aylén; Berger, Micaela Gisell; Antonio Marcelo, Aoki; Meriles, Jose Manuel The application of biochar with N-fertilizer is one of the most attractive practices for increasing soil quality and fertility. However, few studies have examined the combined effects of peanut biochar and urea on soil microbial community structure and function. Phospholipid fatty acid (PLFA) analysis and various enzyme activities were used to monitor microbial community structure and function in a 20-week incubation experiment. Different rates of biochar (0, 1, and 3% dry wt. soil) and N-fertilizers (with or without urea addition at 0.2 g kg−1) were applied to a Typic Haplustoll under conventional (CV) and conservation (CS) land management practices. A pristine forest soil (CK) was also included as control. Overall, the lowest microbial activity and abundance of microbial PLFA bioindicators were recorded under CV, confirming that conservation management may improve soil quality. Our study also indicated that the effect of biochar and management practices on the microbial community structure was more significant than that of urea. Particularly under both CS and CK, biochar tended to increase glucosidase, glucuronidase, and phosphomonoesterase activities, being on average 65%, 43%, and 85% significantly higher in biochar 3% than in the control treatment, respectively. Thus, we found a strong correlation between soil macronutrients and enzymes such as glucosidase and urease. Although total PLFA content was poorly affected, biochar addition increased some individual PLFA biomarkers, suggesting that both the biochar rates (1% and 3%) may increase Gram-negative bacteria and fungal populations. Regardless of biochar addition, urea application significantly increased urease activity. We also found a positive correlation between fungal PLFAs (VAM and total fungi) and urease activity, indicating that biochar tended to increase fungal biomass. The combined application of biochar and urea to soil under appropriate management may thus be a feasible and effective strategy for improving soil microbial quality.
