Chronostratigraphy and tectono-sedimentary history of the Eastern South Pyrenean foreland basin (Ripoll Syncline, North-East Spain)
This paper contributes to an understanding of the tectono‐sedimentary evolution of the South Pyrenean foreland system by reviewing the chronostratigraphic framework of the basin infill in its eastern sector. Six sections are analysed and cross‐correlated to build a 6.5 km thick composite magnetostratigraphy that represents the complete record of the Cadí Nappe in the Ripoll Syncline. New and previous magnetostratigraphic sections are integrated with available biostratigraphy to provide a new age calibration of the sedimentary succession of the Cadí Nappe, encompassing from Palaeocene to Middle Lutetian age. The proposed correlation with the Geomagnetic Polarity Time Scale aims at best reconcile magnetostratigraphic data with the regional biochronology built on the marine Shallow Benthic Zonation (SBZ biozones), the continental mammalian biochronology (MP levels) and the newly collected charophyte data. A subsidence analysis was performed on the calibrated composite succession, resulting in two well‐defined intervals bounded by a hiatus. A Palaeocene to Early Eocene interval with low (11–21 cm/kyr) total subsidence rates, and an Early to Middle Eocene interval, characterised by high (70–75 cm/kyr) total subsidence rates. The detailed trends in both subsidence and sedimentation mark the development and evolution of the foreland depozones, from distal foreland depozones to foredeep and wedge‐top depozones, relative to the emplacement of the Pedraforca Nappe and Cadí Thrust Nappe. The most pronounced sedimentary shift in the Cadí Nappe occurred at 49 Ma, with the rapid drowning of the carbonate platforms and its transition into talus and deep basinal environments. Carbonate platforms collapsed and resedimented on the talus of the elongated trough, newly formed parallel to the orogenic front. This marked the onset of tectonic subsidence triggered by the submarine emplacement of the Lower Pedraforca Nappe. The emersion of the orogenic wedge drove the entry of siliciclastics, lagged by 1 Myr, into the Ripoll Trough. The foredeep filled rapidly (5.5 km thickness in less than 7 Myr) compared to other South Pyrenean regions, favoured by its semi‐enclosed palaeogeography. The emplacement of the Vallfogona Thrust as early as the Middle Lutetian (43 Ma) brought the Cadi Nappe into a wedge‐top setting. However, the Ripoll growth syncline continued acting as a temporary sink for alluvial sedimentation while a foredeep developed further south in the autochthonous Ebro Basin. The flexural response of the Iberian plate to the tectonic thickening of the Axial Zone counterbalanced for a period the local uplift of the Cadi Nappe, providing accommodation space for the top sediments filling the Ripoll Syncline.Marie Curie Project from the European Union, Grant/Award Number: H2020-MSCA-ITN-2019; Signal Propagation in

Revelando lo invisible: reconocimiento de habilidades blandas a partir de las redes sociales
The limitations of traditional resume-based employability assessment methods have fuelled research into more dynamic approaches. This paper suggests a conceptual framework for initiating the exploration of social media for soft skills recognition (SMSR), a novel approach that leverages social media data to assess skills. SMSR offers advantages over traditional methods by capturing authentic, diverse, timely, and contextual data that reflects an individual's soft skills based on their social media behaviours. By analysing online interactions, content creation, and social network engagement, SMSR has the potential to reveal a wider range of soft skills, including communication, teamwork, and creative abilities. SMSR holds promise for revolutionising the job search process for employers and job seekers, streamlining recruitment and offering a more democratic approach to skills recognitionLas limitaciones de los métodos tradicionales de evaluación de la empleabilidad basados en currículos han impulsado la investigación hacia enfoques más dinámicos. Este artículo explora el potencial del reconocimiento de habilidades a partir de las redes sociales, un enfoque novedoso que aprovecha la riqueza de los datos de las redes sociales para evaluar habilidades. Esta perspectiva ofrece ventajas sobre los métodos tradicionales al capturar datos auténticos, diversos, oportunos y contextualmente ricos que reflejan las habilidades de un individuo en un entorno real. Al analizar interacciones en línea, la creación de contenido y el compromiso en redes sociales, tiene el potencial de revelar una gama más amplia de habilidades, incluyendo comunicación, trabajo en equipo y habilidades creativas. Esta investigación contribuye al campo al ofrecer una solución a las limitaciones de los métodos tradicionales que a menudo pasan por alto las habilidades transferibles y no logran capturar los matices de la aplicación de habilidades. Además, esta perspectiva promete revolucionar el proceso de búsqueda de empleo tanto para empleadores como para buscadores de empleo, agilizando el reclutamiento y ofreciendo un enfoque más democrático para el reconocimiento de habilidade
Updating Old English Dative–Genitives: A Diachronic Construction Grammar Account
This article conducts a corpus linguistics analysis of the dative–genitive subconstruction
within the broader context of Old English double object complementation. The ditransitive construction
in Old English has traditionally been perceived as a network of alternating subconstructions,
including DAT-ACC, ACC-DAT, ACC-GEN, DAT-GEN, and ACC-ACC, as the most productive variants.
Recent literature has primarily focused on DAT-ACCs and ACC-DATs because they are the most productive
patterns across the history of English, giving also rise to the current ditransitive construction.
However, the less productive case frames have received considerably less recent attention. This work,
part of an ongoing investigation aimed at creating an OE DAT-GEN database, builds upon Visser’s list,
verified and implemented by findings obtained from a search conducted in the Dictionary of Old
English Web Corpus. We obtain 88 verb types and 443 tokens, incorporating 19 new verb types and
260 tokens into the database. More significantly, we offer a detailed description of the conceptual
domains and verb classes associated with OE DAT-GENs, which display a semantics characterized by
the presence or absence of actual transfer, as well as transitions from literal to metaphorical transfer,
with speech verbs playing a significant role.This research was funded by the I+D+I project grant IPID2020-119200GB-100 [(MCIN/AEI/10.13039/501100011033/)], which is gratefully acknowledged here
Advanced care in the application of platelet-rich plasma in chronic wounds: bibliographic review
Las heridas crónicas representan un desafío sanitario de gran envergadura que afecta a gran parte de la población, provocando limitaciones físicas, emocionales y sociales, impactando negativamente en el bienestar general. Su tratamiento supone un gasto de millones de euros anuales para el sistema sanitario. En busca de intervenciones más eficientes, la terapia con plasma rico en plaquetas (PRP) ha demostrado ser prometedora, puesto que mejora la cicatrización de las úlceras cutáneas mediante la provisión de factores de crecimiento y estímulos necesarios para la regeneración del tejido, optimizando el uso de recursos sanitarios.
Objetivos
Esta revisión busca profundizar a través de la literatura científica en el uso y administración del PRP para el cuidado de heridas crónicas en personas adultas.
Metodología
Se realizó una revisión bibliográfica en PubMed, WOS CC, Biblioteca Cochrane y Dialnet, entre 2016-2024, siguiendo la guía de la Declaración PRISMA y el formato de pregunta PICO. Tras el cribado de 422 artículos encontrados, se incluyeron 14, que se adecuaban al objetivo del estudio, los criterios de inclusión y se habían sometido a lectura crítica con la herramienta CASPe.
Resultados
Los resultados muestran que dicha terapia incrementa la cicatrización, reduce la profundidad y tamaño de la herida y acorta el tiempo de curación. Igualmente, disminuye el dolor y favorece la reducción del gasto sanitario, y como consecuencia, aumenta la satisfacción de los pacientes y profesionales sanitarios.
Conclusión
Los hallazgos respaldan la aplicación de PRP para el tratamiento de heridas crónicas en adultos, a pesar de la variabilidad en la etiología de las heridas y los métodos de aplicación del PRP. La figura de la enfermera de práctica avanzada en heridas crónicas es clave en la gestión de estos recursos. Aun así, se necesitan más investigaciones para promover la implementación de esta terapia basada en la evidencia y considerar si dichos efectos se mantienen en el tiempo.Chronic wounds represent a major healthcare challenge that affects a large part of the population, causing physical, emotional and social limitations, negatively impacting overall well-being. Their treatment costs the healthcare system millions of euros per year. In search of more efficient interventions, platelet-rich plasma (PRP) therapy has shown promise in improving the healing of skin ulcers by providing growth factors and stimuli necessary for tissue regeneration, optimizing the use of healthcare resources.
Objectives
This review seeks to delve deeper through the scientific literature into the use and administration of PRP for the care of chronic wounds in adults.
Methodology
A literature review was performed in PubMed, WOS CC, Cochrane Library and Dialnet, between 2016-2024, following the PRISMA Statement guidelines and the PICO question format. After screening 422 articles found, 14 were included, which matched the study objective, inclusion criteria and had undergone critical reading with the CASPe tool. Results
The results show that this therapy increases healing, reduces the depth and size of the wound and shortens the healing time. It also reduces pain and favors the reduction of health care costs, and as a consequence, increases the satisfaction of patients and health care professionals.
Conclusion
The findings support the application of PRP for the treatment of chronic wounds in adults, despite variability in wound etiology and methods of PRP application. The role of the advanced practice nurse in chronic wounds is key in the management of these resources. Still, more research is needed to promote the implementation of this evidence-based therapy and to consider whether such effects are sustained over time
La geografía de la inseguridad alimentaria. Un análisis taxonómico
The problem of food insecurity is worsening in a multi-crisis world
simultaneously affected by socio-economic, health, governance and
environmental problems. This article characterizes the geography of food
insecurity based on six influential theories that explain the emergence of the
most dramatic manifestation of food insecurity: famines. We build a taxonomy
of 98 developing countries using a clustering procedure and identify four
groups of countries with different vulnerabilities. The multidimensional analysis
depicts a complex map of the diversity of human vulnerabilities that trigger
hunger and famines across the world.El problema de la inseguridad alimentaria empeora en un mundo

Isospin diffusion from 40,48Ca + 40,48Ca experimental data at Fermi energies: Direct comparisons with transport model calculations
This article presents an investigation of isospin equilibration in cross-bombarding 40,48 Ca + 40,48 Ca reactions at 35 MeV/nucleon, by comparing experimental data with filtered transport model calculations. Isospin diffusion is studied using the evolution of the isospin transport ratio with centrality. The asymmetry parameter δ = (N − Z )/A of the quasiprojectile (QP) residue is used as isospin-sensitive observable, while a recent method for impact parameter reconstruction is used for centrality sorting. A benchmark of global observables is proposed to assess the relevance of the antisymmetrized molecular dynamics (AMD) model, coupled to GEMINI++, in the study of dissipative collisions. Our results demonstrate the importance of considering cluster formation to reproduce observables used for isospin transport and centrality studies. Within the AMD model, we prove the applicability of the impact parameter reconstruction method, enabling a direct comparison to the experimental data for the investigation of isospin diffusion. For both, we evidence a tendency to isospin equilibration with an impact parameter decreasing from 9 to 3 fm, while the full equilibration is not reached. A weak sensitivity to the stiffness of the equation of state employed in the model is also observed, with a better reproduction of the experimental trend for the neutron-rich reactions.Ciencias Integrada
Optimal reconfiguration of distribution systems considering reliability: Introducing long-term memory component AEO algorithm
This article introduces a modified version of the Artificial Ecosystem Optimization (AEO) algorithm, called Long-term Memory Component AEO (LMAEO), for optimizing the reconfiguration of radial distribution networks. The LMAEO algorithm incorporates a long-term memory component, enabling individuals in the population to make decisions based on past experiences. This integration of long-term memory allows the algorithm to explore a wider range of potential solutions during the optimization process, potentially leading to improved performance and better exploration of the solution space. To verify the effectiveness and superiority of the LMAEO technique, it is compared with the conventional AEO algorithm and other well-known algorithms using seven benchmark
functions. The proposed LMAEO algorithm successfully addresses the reconfiguration of distribution systems considering reliability for the modified 12-bus, 33-bus and 69-bus IEEE test systems. Leveraging the strengths of AEO and the long-term memory component, the LMAEO algorithm achieves efficient solutions for this problem. To assess the performance of the proposed LMAEO, a comparison is made with the original AEO algorithm. The results demonstrate that the LMAEO technique surpasses the AEO optimizer in terms of optimal reconfiguration of distribution systems jointly considering reliability, system losses and voltage deviations.Funding for open access charge: Universidad de Huelva/CBUA.Ciencias Integrada
Upper Marianian (Cambrian Series 2) trilobites from the Totanés–Noez area (Central Iberian Zone, Toledo province, Spain): systematics and intercontinental correlation
Marianian (Cambrian Series 2) trilobites from the area between Totanés and Noez (Central Iberian Zone) are described and
their biostratigraphical significance is discussed. The trilobites come from eight localities and can be divided into two main
assemblages: the first is characterised by Serrodiscus bellimarginatus, Chelediscus cf. garzoni, Atops calanus, Pseudatops
reticulatus and indeterminate polymeroid trilobites. The second assemblage consists of Serrodiscus bellimarginatus, Triangulaspis
cf. fusca, Andalusiana palaciosi n. sp., Termierella totanesensis n. sp. and Acanthomicmacca sp. Both fossil
associations indicate a late Marianian age in the regional stratigraphic scheme for the Cambrian of the Iberian Peninsula,
as Serrodiscus, Chelediscus and Pseudatops have been recorded from the upper Marianian substage, while Triangulaspis,
Andalusiana, Termierella and Acanthomicmacca are indicative of the middle to upper Marianian. The taxa considered here
have regional and intercontinental correlation potential. The presence of the globally distributed genus Serrodiscus allows
correlation in the Cambrian Series 2. The first assemblage, composed of Serrodiscus, Chelediscus, Atops and Pseudatops,
has been reported from the Ossa-Morena Zone, Avalonia, Laurentia, Baltica and Siberia, improving the correlation between
these regions. The second assemblage of Andalusiana, Termierella, Triangulaspis and Serrodiscus is comparable to other
assemblages from the Ossa-Morena Zone, the Iberian Chains and Morocco, with Triangulaspis also reported from Newfoundland
and Siberia. In addition, the proposal of the ISCS regarding the co-occurrence of Hebediscus, Calodiscus, Serrodiscus
and Triangulaspis as a potential marker for the base of the Cambrian Stage 4 may imply that the upper Marianian of Iberia
could be approximately correlated with the base of this stage.Open Access funding provided thanks to the CRUE-CSIC agreement with Springer Nature.
