La prevalença de la insuficència cardíaca segueix en aument. La identificació de nous factors de risc, com els relacionats amb el metabolisme cardíac, és important per a la seva prevenció. La resistència a la insulina és el tret comú de diferents malalties, havent-se observat una alta prevalença entre pacients amb disfunció cardíaca. L'excedent de lípids que es produeix en aquesta circumstància es distribueix cap a teixits no adiposos com el cor (lipotoxicitat). El contingut miocàrdic de lípids pot ser un biomarcador predictor de desenvolupament de disfunció diastòlica i és possible quantificar-lo amb l'ús d’espectroscòpia per ressonància magnètica

La resistencia a insulina en pacientes SAHS podría estar vehiculizada por el incremento de actividad simpática secundaria a los fenómenos de apnea-hipopnea. Queremos determinar la actividad simpática y la resistencia a la insulina en pacientes SAHS relacionándolas con la gravedad de dicha condición. Realizamos un estudio de casos y controles sobre una muestra de 86 pacientes con sospecha de SAHS evaluándolos mediante polisomnografía nocturna y análisis sanguíneo (incluyendo niveles basales de catecolaminas). Hemos comprobado una asociación entre SAHS y activación simpática. También observamos una relación entre gravedad del SAHS y resistencia a insulina. La presencia de sobrepeso empeora estos mecanismos.

El nostre objectiu fou analitzar la prevalença de la resistència a la insulina (RI) en una cohort de pacients amb síndrome d’apnea-hipopnea de la son (SAHS) sota la hipòtesi que el SAHS és un factor de risc independent per al desenvolupament de RI. Realitzarem un estudi prospectiu transversal incloent-hi pacients consecutius diagnosticats de SAHS. Estudiarem les diferències entre pacients SAHS amb i sense RI. Incloem 103 pacients (73,8% homes). El 46,7% (n=42) tenien RI, i aquest grup va tenir major IMC i paràmetres més greus d'hipòxia intermitent nocturna. Els factors de risc independents per a la RI van ser l'IMC i l'ODI

Thermosensitive hydrogels were synthesized using alginate-Ca2+ in association with a thermosensitive polymer, such as PNIPAAm. The mechanical properties of the hydrogels were determined measuring the maximum tension of deformation. With the increase of the temperature by 25 to 40 ºC above the LCST the chains of PNIPAAm collapsed, dragging the alginate net and diminishing the size of the pores. The decrease in the size of the pores of the hydrogel was followed by an increase in the mechanicals resistance of the material.

Multidrug resistance, MDR is a major obstacle for cancer chemotherapy. MDR can be reversed by drugs that vary in their chemical structure and main biological activity. Many efforts have been done to overcome MDR based on studies of structure-activity relationships and in this review we summarize some aspects of MDR mediated by P-glycoprotein (P-gp), as the most experimentally and clinically tested form of drug resistance. The most significant MDR mechanisms revealed until now are shortly discussed. Physicochemical and structural properties of MDR modulators, measures of the MDR reversal, and QSAR studies are included.

Sugarcane holds an important place in the Brazilian economy. Grate part of the sugarcane harvested still accomplished largely manually. Sugarcane harvesters available in Brazil use the technology to chop the cane into 200 to 300 mm billets to allow on the go cane transferring to transport, contradicting the traditional method of whole stalk sugarcane harvesting system. In order to make whole stalk mechanical harvesting system possible, one of the barriers to be expired is the mechanical removal of the straw. The design of a mechanism that accomplishes this operation depends directly on the knowledge of the mechanical properties of the sugarcane related to its resistance to compression and the forces necessary to remove the leaves from the stalk. Compression tests were conducted using the universal testing machine. For leaves removal test by friction, a special apparatus was designed to allow the registration of the normal and traction force. The sugarcane stalk can resist up to 4.9 MPa. With a normal pressure of 0.8 MPa, which correspond to a friction force of 315 N, it is possible to remove the leaves, independent of its location in the sugarcane stalk.

An alternative proposal for floor heating system by means of electric resistance for both chick and piggy installation is presented in this work. Several formulations of rice husk and cement mortar boards were used. An electronic device controlled all board temperature. This system presented a good efficiency design. The conventional cement mortar mixed with rice husk showed a better performance.
