A través de l'anàlisi de dos sèries de diferents llibres de comptabilitat de Barcelona, els procedents de la gestió dels molins reals i els redactats per una institució eclesiàstica, la Pia Almoina, vam començar a estudiar el mercat del blat a Barcelona durant l'edat mitjana. Hem analitzat anteriorment el valor de les mesures a Barcelona i, per poder qualificar el preu real del pa, també hem estudiat els diferents processos industrials per fer pa de blat. Després, hem analitzat el conjunt d'impostos que pesaven sobre la comercialització de cereals. A través de l'estudi de l'evolució dels preus, hem tractat de fer una primera aproximació de la primera etapa de la crisi baixmedieval, concretament entre 1283 i 1345, tenint en compte els contrastos amb els treballs ja coneguts sobre la base de les fonts on la noció de quantitat no va ser considerada. Finalment, hem comparat els nostres resultats amb alguns treballs referents a la Corona d'Aragó i el món mediterrani, a fi d'obtenir una idea més precisa de la cronologia de les crisis de subsistència

OBJECTIVES To assess the relationship between life styles and eating habits with the overweight and obesity prevalence in a Spanish adult population. METHODS A population-based, cross-sectional study conducted on 2640 subjects older than 15 years, in Cádiz (Spain). Surveys were conducted in subjects' homes to obtain life styles, eating habits, and anthropometric data. Logistic regression has been used to study the association between the life style variables and overweight and obesity. RESULTS Prevalence of overweight and obesity in Cadiz is 37% and 17%, respectively; higher in males and increases with age. BMI has an inverse relationship with educational level (PR = 2.3, 1.57-2.38). The highest levels of obesity are associated with daily alcohol consumption (PR = 1.39, 1.29-1.50), greater consumption of television,and sedentary pursuit (PR 1.5, 1.07-1.24). A lower prevalence of obesity is observed among those with active physical activity (10.9% vs 21.6%), with differences between sex. Following a slimming diet is more frequent in the obese and in women but dedicate more hours than men to passive activities. In men is greater the consumption of alcohol, high energy foods and snacks. Overweight and obesity is associated with the male sex (OR = 3.35 2.75-4.07), high consumption of alcohol (OR = 1.38 1.03-1.86) and watching television (OR = 1.52 1.11-2.07), and foods likes bread and cereals (OR = 1.47 1.13-1.91). Exercise activities is a protective factor (OR = 0.76 0.63-0.98). CONCLUSIONS Life styles factors associated with overweight and obesity present different patterns in men and women and is necessary to understand them to identify areas for behavioural intervention in overweight and obesity patients.

BACKGROUND Earlier analyses within the EPIC study showed that dietary fibre intake was inversely associated with colorectal cancer risk, but results from some large cohort studies do not support this finding. We explored whether the association remained after longer follow-up with a near threefold increase in colorectal cancer cases, and if the association varied by gender and tumour location. METHODOLOGY/PRINCIPAL FINDINGS After a mean follow-up of 11.0 years, 4,517 incident cases of colorectal cancer were documented. Total, cereal, fruit, and vegetable fibre intakes were estimated from dietary questionnaires at baseline. Hazard ratios (HRs) and 95% confidence intervals (CIs) were estimated using Cox proportional hazards models stratified by age, sex, and centre, and adjusted for total energy intake, body mass index, physical activity, smoking, education, menopausal status, hormone replacement therapy, oral contraceptive use, and intakes of alcohol, folate, red and processed meats, and calcium. After multivariable adjustments, total dietary fibre was inversely associated with colorectal cancer (HR per 10 g/day increase in fibre 0.87, 95% CI: 0.79-0.96). Similar linear associations were observed for colon and rectal cancers. The association between total dietary fibre and risk of colorectal cancer risk did not differ by age, sex, or anthropometric, lifestyle, and dietary variables. Fibre from cereals and fibre from fruit and vegetables were similarly associated with colon cancer; but for rectal cancer, the inverse association was only evident for fibre from cereals. CONCLUSIONS/SIGNIFICANCE Our results strengthen the evidence for the role of high dietary fibre intake in colorectal cancer prevention.

A strict gluten-free diet (GFD) is the only currently available therapeutic treatment for patients with celiac disease (CD). Traditionally, treatment with a GFD has excluded wheat, barley and rye, while the presence of oats is a subject of debate. The most-recent research indicates that some cultivars of oats can be a safe part of a GFD. In order to elucidate the toxicity of the prolamins from oat varieties with low, medium, and high CD toxicity, the avenin genes of these varieties were cloned and sequenced, and their expression quantified throughout the grain development. At the protein level, we have accomplished an exhaustive characterization and quantification of avenins by RP-HPLC and an analysis of immunogenicity of peptides present in prolamins of different oat cultivars. Avenin sequences were classified into three different groups, which have homology with S-rich prolamins of Triticeae. Avenin proteins presented a lower proline content than that of wheat gliadin; this may contribute to the low toxicity shown by oat avenins. The expression of avenin genes throughout the development stages has shown a pattern similar to that of prolamins of wheat and barley. RP-HPLC chromatograms showed protein peaks in the alcohol-soluble and reduced-soluble fractions. Therefore, oat grains had both monomeric and polymeric avenins, termed in this paper gliadin- and glutenin-like avenins. We found a direct correlation between the immunogenicity of the different oat varieties and the presence of the specific peptides with a higher/lower potential immunotoxicity. The specific peptides from the oat variety with the highest toxicity have shown a higher potential immunotoxicity. These results suggest that there is wide range of variation of potential immunotoxicity of oat cultivars that could be due to differences in the degree of immunogenicity in their sequences.

Estudi d' una estratègia d’aclarida química per la varietat Reineta Gris del Canadà per garantir una producció de qualitat i reduir l’alternança dels arbres. Les raons de l’estudi eren principalment la poca informació disponible dels productes i dosificacions a utilitzar en l’aclarida de la varietat. En segon lloc l’interès comercial d’algunes empreses del sector per aquesta varietat i per obtenir un producte de qualitat principalment pel calibre de la poma. Per tal d’assolir aquest objectiu principal es van plantejar els objectius concrets: Quantificar el poder aclaridor de tres productes convencionals, NAD, ANA i Carbaryl; testar el poder aclaridor de la BA, ja que tot i ser un producte no registrat se li coneix un efecte aclaridor per altres varietats de poma i provar barreges i aplicacions seqüencials dels productes mencionats

El presente estudio evalúa la influencia de los esquemas implícitos y explícitos, tanto acerca de uno mismo como de los demás, sobre la experimentación de experiencias pseudo-psicóticas positivas; tomando como marco de referencia dos destacados modelos explicativos: el modelo atribucional de auto-representación y el modelo de la anticipación cognitiva de la amenaza. Los análisis se realizaron sobre una muestra de 185 estudiantes de psicología de la UAB. Los resultados obtenidos apoyaron la influencia de los esquemas explícitos positivos del yo y los negativos de los otros sobre las experiencias pseudo-psicóticas positivas; aportando así un apoyo parcial para ambos modelos.

En el prosent projecte s'introduirà la teoria del disseny estadístic d'experiments i ens endinsarem amb més profunditat en els dissenys factorials complerts. Aquest tipus de dissenys, són d'aplicació en sistemes en els que es desitja estudiar la influència que tenen els k factors sobre una variable resposta. Els dissenys factorials complerts, són aquells en els que els k factors poden prendre diversos nivells, i es contemplen totes les posibles combinacions entre ells. Aquest projecte es centrarà més concretament en els dissenys factorials complerts 2, on el número 2 indica que cadascun els factors pren 2 nivells diferents. S'explicarà la teoria corresponent a aquests dissenys amb l'ajuda de diversos exemples, explicant des de un disseny factorial en el que s'estudia la influència de 2 factros (2), fins a un en el que s'estudia la influència de 4 factors (2). També s'ha introduït alguns mètodes que ens ajudaran a trobar models matemàtics que s'ajustin al sistema, i algunes metodologies d'optimització com la metodologia de superficie de resposta o el mètode simplex, per poder treure el màxim partit als nostres recursos. Una vegada introduïts tots aquests conceptes, es procedirà a realitzar un estudi i optimització d'una reacció química que consisteix en l'eliminació del coure d'una dissolució per a la posterior utilització d'aquesta dissolució en la industria per a l'extracció d'or i plata. El segon cas d'aplicació serà la realització de l'estudi i optimització del procés d'obtenció de biodièsel. En ambdós casos s'aplicarà un disseny factorial complet 2, però en cada un s'aplicarà una metodologia diferent per realitzar la optimització. Donat que aquest és un projecte purament centrat en el disseny d'experiments i en el tractament de les dades obtingudes, l'experimentació no ha sigut realitzada per nosaltres, sinó que la informació referent a la mateixa s'ha obtingut d'articles acadèmics realitzats per diferents universitats que han realitzat els estudis corresponents.
