El teatre de Harold Pinter a Barcelona

Aquest treball analitza l’impacte que ha tingut el dramaturg Harold Pinter a la ciutat de Barcelona des de la primer vegada que s’hi va representar, l’any 1963, fins que es va celebrar el festival Tardor Pinter, l’any 1996. La investigació s’ha fet, sobretot, a partir de la premsa de l’època però també s’ha tingut en compte material gràfic i entrevistes. L’objectiu ha estat observar l’evolució de l’opinió que suscitaven les obres d’aquest autor i com, de mica en mica es va arribar a convertir en un model creatiu per al grup d’El Teatro Fronterizo, encapçalat per José Sanchis Sinisterra.

Expanded description of the female of Lernaeenicus longiventris Wilson, 1917, (Copepoda, Siphonostomatoida, Pennellidae) based on specimens from Mugil platanus Günter, 1880 (Perciformes, Mugilidae) of the state of Rio de Janeiro, Brazil

The description of Lernaeenicus longiventris is expanded and revised, based on specimens collected from the skin and fins of mullets, Mugil platanus Gunther, 1880, from 21 locations in coastal waters of the state of Rio de Janeiro, Brazil.

Performance of younger and older adults in lateralized right and left hemisphere asymmetry tasks supports the HAROLD model

The population of industrialized societies has increased tremendously over the last century, raising the question on how an enhanced age affects cognition. The relevance of two models of healthy aging are contrasted in the present study that both target the functioning of the two cerebral hemispheres. The right hemi-aging model (RHAM) assumes that functions of the right hemisphere decline before those of the left hemisphere. The Hemispheric Asymmetry Reduction in Older Adults (HAROLD) Model suggests that the contralateral hemisphere supports the normally superior hemisphere in a given task resulting in a reduced hemispheric asymmetry overall. In a mixed design, 20 younger and 20 older adults performed both a task assessing a left (lateralized lexical decisions) and a right (sex decisions on chimeric faces) hemisphere advantage. Results indicated that lateralized performance in both tasks was attenuated in older as compared to younger adults, in particular in men. These observations support the HAROLD model. Future studies should investigate whether this reduced functional hemispheric asymmetry in older age results from compensatory processes or from a process of de-differentiation

Evaluación de la eficacia y seguridad del tratamiento con tetratiomolibdato de amonio en la enfermedad de Wilson con afectación neurológica

El tractament actual de la malaltia de Wilson amb afectació neurològica és controvertit. Els fàrmacs actuals s’associen a risc de deteriorament neurològic (50% amb penicilamina i 26% amb trientine). El nou medicament tetratiomolibdat s’està estudiant perquè sembla tenir menor freqüència d’empitjorament neurològic. S’associa a efectes secundaris lleus i generalment reversibles. A la nostra sèrie de cinc pacients vàrem observar una milloria significativa dels símptomes després del tractament amb tetratiomolibdat. No es va detectar cap empitjorament neurològic. En dos casos va haver també una millora radiològica. Un pacient va presentar lleu anèmia, leucopènia i elevació de les transaminases reversible.
