La crónica Ibargüen-Cachopín y el Canto de Lelo
Se descubrió que la "Crónica de Ibargüen" no había sido escrita por éste, sino que solamente había sido el colaborador de Cachopín, quien se considera es el auténtico autor. A raíz de esto se plantea si son justos los juicios emitidos a la obra de Ibargüen. El Canto de Lelo o Canto de los Cántabros aparece en el cuaderno 71 de la Crónica y se hace un estudio de este canto, que el autor considera un estribillo sin sentidoThe "Chronicle of Ibargüen" was discovered not to have been written by Ibergüen, as he had only collaborated with Cachopín, who is considered to be the authentic author. This is why, at the moment, it is being considered whether the judgments made on the work of Ibargüen were fair. The Song of Lelo or Song of the Cántabros appears in issue 71 of the Chronicle together with a study of the song, that the author considers a senseless refrai

Land suitability for waste disposal in metropolitan areas
Site selection for waste disposal is a complex task that should meet the requirements of communities and stakeholders. In this article, three decision support methods (Boolean logic, index overlay and fuzzy gamma) are used to perform land suitability analysis for landfill siting. The study was carried out in one of the biggest metropolitan regions of Italy, with the objective of locating suitable areas for waste disposal. Physical and socio-economic information criteria for site selection were decided by a multidisciplinary group of experts, according to state-of-the-art guidelines, national legislation and local normative on waste management.The geographic information systems (GIS) based models used in this study are easy to apply but require adequate selection of criteria and weights and a careful evaluation of the results. The methodology is arranged in three steps, reflecting the criteria defined by national legislation on waste management: definition of factors that exclude location of landfills or waste treatment plants; classification of the remaining areas in terms of suitability for landfilling; and evaluation of suitable sites in relation to preferential siting factors (such as the presence of quarries or dismissed plants).The results showed that more than 80% of the provincial territory falls within constraint areas and the remaining territory is suitable for waste disposal for 0.72% or 1.93%, according to the model. The larger and most suitable sites are located in peripheral areas of the metropolitan system.The proposed approach represents a low-cost and expeditious alternative to support the spatial decision-making process. © The Author(s) 2014

Polimorfisme -173 G Ke C Gen Macrophage Migration Inhibitory Factor dengan Kadar Angiotensin II dan Macrophage Inhibitory Factor sebagai Faktor Risiko Sindrom Nefrotik Resisten Steroid
Background: Steroid-resistant nephrotic syndrome (SRNS) patients tend to progress to end-stage renal disease (ESRD). The MIF high producer -173 C allele has been associated with alterations in balance between MIF and glucocorticoids; resulting in NS patients resistant to steroid therapy. In vitro studies demonstrate cytokine MIF is regulated by angiotensin II. Induction of MIF by angiotensin II affects the development of hypertension.
Aim:
Relationship MIF gene -173 C allele with the presence of serum MIF and plasma angiotensin II regulation for the individual SRNS is unknown.
Methods: A cross-sectional study was conducted with 120 consecutive children consisting of three groups (steroid-resistant, steroid-sensitive, and well children) between November 2011 and September 2012. Data were collected consist of physical examinations, blood pressure, urinary albumin-creatinine ratio, allele of -173 gene MIF, serum MIF and plasma angiotensin II.
Results: The C allele was three times more frequent in SRNS than SSNS and well children (OR 2.79 95% CI 1.13 to 6.89). Group SRNS had significantly higher serum MIF (median 31.9 (14.3 to 117.2) ng/mL) compared to the levels in other groups (p=0.04). Marked increases in median plasma angiotensin II was observed in group SRNS (median 22.7 (3.1 to 153.4) pg/mL) compared with other groups (p=0.01). Plasma angiotensin II concentrations were very weak positive correlated with serum MIF (rho= 0.27; p=0.003). Although multivariate analysis found that the C allele, systolic and diastolic hypertension,as significant variables on the risk of SRNS, but variable levels plasma angiotensin II and serum MIF significantly affect variable hypertension, if not incorporated into this models.
Conclusions: C allele polymorphism of the -173 MIF gene, plasma angiotensin II and serum MIF concentrations, are higher in SRNS. The C allele, systolic and diastolic hypertension, levels of plasma angiotensin II and serum MIF are the best fit model for steroid-resistant analysis models.Latar belakang: Penderita sindroma nefrotik resisten steroid (SNRS) cenderung berlanjut ke penyakit ginjal tahap akhir. Alel C -173 gen MIF (macrophage migration inhibitory factor) berkaitan dengan gangguan keseimbangan sitokin MIF dengan glukokortikoid, sehingga penderita SN resisten terhadap terapi steroid. Studi in vitro menunjukkan sitokin MIF diatur oleh angiotensin II. Induksi regulasi MIF oleh angiotensin II memengaruhi perkembangan hipertensi.
Tujuan: Hubungan alel C -173 gen MIF dengan keberadaan MIF serum dan pengaturan oleh angiotensin II plasma pada individu SNRS belum diketahui.
Metode: Studi sekat lintang dilakukan pada 120 anak (steroid resisten, steroid sensitif dan anak sehat) sejak November 2011 hingga September 2012. Data yang dikumpulkan meliputi pemeriksaan fisis, tekanan darah, rasio albumin kreatinin urin, alel G atau C -173 gen MIF, MIF serum, dan angiotensin II plasma.
Hasil: Frekuensi alel C tiga kali lebih tinggi pada SNRS dibandingkan dengan SNSS dan anak sehat (OR 2,79;IK 95% 1,13 sampai 6,89). Kadar MIF serum lebih tinggi pada SNRS (median 31,9 kisaran 14,3 sampai 117,2 ng/mL) dibandingkan dengan kedua grup lain (p=0,04). Kelompok SNRS menunjukkan kadar angiotensin II plasma (median 22,7 kisaran 3,1 sampai 153,4 pg/mL) lebih tinggi dibandingkan dengan grup lain (p=0,01). Korelasi angiotensin II plasma dengan MIF serum adalah korelasi positif yang sangat lemah (rho = 0,27; p=0.003). Pada analisis multivariat ditemukan bahwa alel C, hipertensi sistolik, dan diastolik sebagai variabel yang bermakna terhadap risiko SNRS. Variabel angiotensin II plasma dan MIF serum memengaruhi secara nyata terhadap variabel hipertensi, apabila tidak dimasukkan ke dalam model, sehingga tetap dipakai sebagai model terbaik.
Simpulan: Frekuensi alel C, kadar angiotensin II plasma, dan MIF serum lebih tinggi pada SNRS. Alel C, hipertensi sistolik, hipertensi diastolik, kadar angiotensin II plasma dan MIF serum merupakan model terbaik untuk analisis model keberadaan resisten steroid.140 HalamanDisertasi Dokto

Morphometrics of the yellow-bellied toad (Bombina variegata) in the Central Balkans: Implications for taxonomy and zoogeography
A comprehensive survey of the Central Balkan yellow-bellied toad (Bombina variegata) populations was undertaken to describe morphometric differentiation between 4 geographic groups previously demarcated by molecular studies. Our analyses confirmed pronounced geographic structuring at the population level, as well as a clear transition over a relatively short distance separating the localized B. v. scabra, endemic to the Balkans, and the widely distributed B. v. variegata. We present the inferred range boundaries of these geographic groups in the Central Balkans, and discuss their historical zoogeography and taxonomy. Our study provides evidence that the Northern Balkans, a secondary transition zone of postglacial origin, constitutes an important European suture area for amphibians.nul
