Probability of mast cells to mediate anaphylaxis in skeletal muscle
Objectives. The aim of this paper is to estimate the prevalence of successful aging in the elderly in Western Mexico and to analyze its variability by age, sex, education, marital status, and pension. Methods. This study employs data from the Health, Wellbeing, and Aging Study (SABE) in Jalisco and Colima, Mexico. Successful aging was operationalized in accordance with no important disease, no disability, physical functioning, cognitive functioning, and being actively. There were a total of 3116 elderly. Results. 12.6 of older adults were successful aging. The old-old is a lower proportion of successful aging people; it ranges from 18.9 among people aged 6069 years to 3.9 in the 8089 years and up to 1 in people 90 and older. There were also differences according to sex (P =.000), with a higher proportion of successful aging men (18.4 compared with 9.2 of women). There were differences in educational level (P =.000); those higher with education were found to be more successful aging, and also there were differences in marital status for married people (P =.000). Discussion. A small number of older adults meet the criteria definition of successful aging, suggesting the need to analyze in depth the concept and the indicators.

Zwolse stadskrans; herstructurering door stedelijke inbreiding
Een moderne stad van de 21e eeuw vraagt om nieuwe bestemmingen voor strategisch gelegen locaties in bestaand stedelijk gebied. Voor een aantal locaties rond de historische binnenstad van Zwolle zijn ruimtelijke veranderingsmogelijkheden, maar nog geen uitgekristalliseerde plannen. Nieuw bij de inbreiding is het 'krans'-denken. De stadskrans is de zone om de binnenstad, deze functioneert als overgang tussen de binnenstad en de omliggende wijken. Daarbij is het uitgangspunt dat de krans als geheel gezien wordt: een kralensnoer dat bestaat uit verschillende kralen met elk hun eigen thema, karakter en verschijningsvorm. De invulling van de gebieden is het resultaat van twee factoren: het huidige/beoogde karakter van het gebied en het schaalniveau waaraan het gebied gekoppeld is. Het karakter heeft alles te maken met het gebruik en de functionaliteit, zoals onderwijs, cultuur en bedrijvigheid e.d. Het schaalniveau is gekoppeld aan het infrastructurele netwerk, zoals de rijksweg A28, het spoor en de regionale wegen. Het centrum blijft het belangrijkste gebied van de stad, maar kan niet groeien door de fysieke barri van de singel. Aan de andere kant van de singel, op steenworp afstand van de binnenstad, liggen gebieden die door middel van herstructurering het centrum kunnen ondersteunen. Deze gebieden kunnen ruimte bieden aan centrumstedelijke woonmilieus nabij de binnenstad mogelijk gecombineerd met representatieve bedrijvigheid, detailhandel, dienstverlening, horeca, leisure, kantoren en (centrum-)parkeervoorzieningen.Architectur
RECEPTION OF THE EUROPEAN CITY IN THE PROSE BY E.D. AIPIN (CONCERNING THE URBAN CODE OF THE KHANTY LITERATURE)
Purpose. The article is devoted to the issue of the urban text, being quite topical in the modern Finno-Ugric philology. The subject of analysis is the reception of the European topos in the works by a leading Khanty writer E.D. Aipin. The author aims to reveal the formation of the urban code in the Khanty literature as based on the example of the works by E.D. Aipin.
Method or methodology of the work. The basis of the research are the historical-cultural and comparative methods, as well as modern approaches to a selective sample analysis of a literary text.
Results. The results of the work lie in the fact that the author interprets the processes of formation of the urban code in the writer’s work of art as well as in national literature of the Khanty people. The research confirms a feature of E.D. Aipin’s idiostyle that was revealed earlier. The author claims the approach that the Khanty writer selected, i.e. the view at a European city through the eyes of a traveler, quite harmoniously represents both the topos and process of metatext formation in the literary work.
Field of practical application of the results. The results of the research can be applied in the field of literary and interdisciplinary humanitarian studies

Several aspects of arterial pressure in urban workers [Algunos aspectos de la presión arterial en trabajadores urbanos.]
We studied the blood pressure in 1,635 workers in 12 companies of Guadalajara City. We observed direct relationship of age with systolic and diastolic values. The prevalence of high blood pressure for 1,000 workers was: for systolic hypertension 158.71; for sisto-diastolic hypertension 99.42 and for the diastolic hypertension 27.02. We found that for the systo-diastolic hypertensives their life expectancy was 11.5 years shorter and the economic impact was calculated in 2,954.10 million of pesos for each 100 workers
