L'objectiu ha estat posar en relació dues realitats que fins al moment havien estat considerades completament alienes, com són l’Índia i Espanya. La recerca de fonts per a les relacions bilaterals de tot tipus es va iniciar al segle XIX. A partir d’aquest moment apareixen tres camps fonamentals on aprofundir. D’una banda tenim les relacions diplomàtiques i la seva vessant política a partir del segle XX. El desenvolupament de representacions consulars té a veure amb el creixement de l’activitat econòmica amb l’Índia britànica, especialment en el camp del proveïment de primeres matèries (cotó i jute). En aquest sentit, la recuperació de les relacions econòmiques va ser clau per al posterior mutu reconeixement diplomàtic el 1957 quan l’Índia ja era un estat independent. Entre mig queden anys de malvolença degut a la vinculació de Nehru amb el govern republicà durant la Guerra Civil i la posició de l’Índia en el cas d’Espanya a l’ONU. Un altre camp d’interès per a les relacions bilaterals es centra en la missió de Bombay que a partir de 1920 fou administrada per jesuïtes catalans, valencians i aragonesos. Finalment, un seguiment de la premsa i la intel•lectualitat espanyola mostra com l’Índia es va convertir a partir de 1920 en un nou focus d’interès informatiu i pel món acadèmic, com no ho havia estat fins llavors. Aquest descobriment de l’Índia per part de viatgers, artistes i periodistes obra una nova via d’intercanvi que es veurà trucada per la Guerra Civil i el posterior establiment d’un règim que destruí el teixit intel•lectual del país.

Acquired behavioral changes have essentially been described in advanced multiple sclerosis (MS). The present study was designed to determine whether behavioral modifications specifically related to the MS pathological process could be identified in the initial phase of the disease, as compared to control patients with chronic, relapsing and progressive inflammatory disorders not involving the central nervous system (CNS). Eighty-eight early MS patients (Expanded Disability Status Scale score <or= 2.5) and 48 controls were tested. Perceived changes by informants in behavioral control, goal-directed behavior, decision making, emotional expression, insight and interpersonal relationships were assessed using the Iowa Scale of Personality Change (ISPC). Executive behavioral disturbances were screened using the Dysexecutive Questionnaire (DEX). The mean change between the premorbid and postmorbid ISPC ratings was similar in the MS [12.2 (SD 15.6)] and in the control [11.5 (SD 15.1)] group. The perceived behavioral changes (PBCs) most frequently reported in both groups were lack of stamina, lability/moodiness, anxiety, vulnerability to stress and irritability. Pathological scores in the DEX were also similar in both groups. Correlations between PBCs and DEX scores were different in MS and control groups. MS patients with cognitive impairment had a marginally higher number of PBCs than control patients (p=0.056) and a significantly higher DEXp score (p=0.04). These results suggest that (1) PBCs occurring in early MS patients were not different from those induced by comparable chronic non-CNS disorders, (2) qualitative differences in the relationship between behavioral symptoms and executive-behavioral changes may exist between MS and control groups, and (3) behavioral symptoms seem associated with cognitive deficits in MS. We further plan to assess these observations longitudinally.

The purpose of this paper is to analyze the diferences that immigrants have in the Spanish labour market. Immigrants in Spain come from a diversity of continents (Africa, South America, Eastern Europe, Asia, etc.), and there are substantial diferences in characteristics not only among continents but also among countries in each continent. Using a quantile regression method of decomposition we estimate these diferences that are reflected in the labour market and in particular are mirrored in the wage, so some immigrants are more discriminated or segregated that others because they have less advantage. For example Argentineans and Peruvians have the same origin and culture but we can find diferences in the wage that they receive in the Spanish labor market, or for example Moroccans have a advantage with respect to the Rest of Africans, due to the geographical proximity to Spain. So when we study the pay gap and the gender pay gap we need to take into consideration the origin of immigrants. We also want to study how the integration of immigrants evolved across years, whether the wage gap that we find in the first episode of work between immigrants and natives disappears or continues to be present in the Spain labour market.

The aim of my speech is answering to the question if the Spanish Inheritance and Gift Tax is incompatible with the free movement of workers and capital. We are going to pay special attention to the European Commission’s request to Spain to change its Inheritance and Gift Tax provisions for Non-Residents or Assets held abroad. In order to answer to the question mentioned above five points will be explained. At first place I am going to describe the infrengement procedure established in the Article 258 that the EU Commission can follow when a Member State doesn’t comply with Community Law. At second place, we are going to explain what is the content of the EU Commission delivered on 5th of may 2010 regarding the spanish Inheritance and Gift Tax. Then, we will analise what establishes the Community Law regarding the freedom of workers and capital and how they are understood by the EU Court of Justice in similar cases. Finally, we are going to provide possible amendments that Spain could undertake.

We investigated correlates for suicidal expression among adolescents in the Seychelles. Data on 1,432 students (52% females) were derived from the Global School-based Health Survey. Participants were divided into three groups: those with no suicidal behavior (N = 1,199); those with suicide ideation/SI (N = 89); and those reporting SI with a plan to carry out a suicide attempt/SISP (N = 139), each within a 12-month recall period. Using multinomial logistic regression, we examined the strength of associations with social, behavioral and economic indicators while adjusting for covariates. Sixteen percent of school-attending adolescents reported a suicidal expression (10% with a plan/6.2% without). Those reporting SI were younger (relative risk ratio RRR = 0.81; CI = 0.68-0.96), indicated signs of depression (RRR = 1.69; CI = 1.05-2.72) and loneliness (RRR=3.36; CI =1.93-5.84). Tobacco use (RRR = 2.34; CI = 1.32-4.12) and not having close friends (RRR = 3.32; CI = 1.54-7.15) were significantly associated with SI. Those with SISP were more likely to be female (RRR = 0.47; 0.30-0.74), anxious (RRR = 3.04; CI = 1.89-4.88) and lonely (RRR = 1.74; CI = 1.07-2.84). Having no close friends (RRR = 2.98; 1.56-5.69) and using tobacco (RRR = 2.41; 1.48-3.91) were also strongly associated. Having parents who were understanding was protective (RRR = 0.50; CI = 0.31-0.82). Our results suggest that school health promotion programs may benefit from targeting multiple factors associated with suicidal expression. More research, particularly multilevel designs are needed to identify peer and family influences which may modify associations with suicidality.

Atendre la planificació dels plans d’aula per a tot l’alumnat des d’un enfocament d’inclusió i atendre la planificació d’accés de cadascun i cadascuna de les alumnes a tot allò que es desenvoluparà a l’aula, són els propòsits del enfocament basat en el Disseny de Programacions Múltiples i Plans Educatius Individualitzats. Des d’aquest enfocament es planteja un procediment de planificacions “per versions” en el sentit que es considera que, inicialment, no es fa necessari preveure tots els detalls de l’activitat docent que es prepara, sinó el disposar d’uns primers esborranys que poden ser suficients i funcionals o que, en el cas de ser necessàries majors concrecions, aquestes es puguin anar introduint progressivament durant el mateix procés docent. El conèixer els canvis que es produiran en el moment de la implementació és l’objectiu d’aquest treball perquè tenim la convicció que si anticipem els possibles canvis que es produiran sabrem els components en els quals convé inicialment, planificar amb major intensitat i detall i quins són aquells altres components sobre els quals la intensitat de la planificació pot ser menys intensa i així facilitar la tasca dels professionals a l’hora de programar.

En el cor embrional, la senyalització de mort cel•lular apoptòtica iniciada per receptors de mort i les caspases executores 3 i 7 exerceixen un paper important durant el desenvolupament cardíac no relacionat amb la mort cel•lular, i posteriorment són silenciats en l’adult, on les vies independents de caspases estan implicades en la mort cel•lular patològica. Resultats previs del nostre grup han contribuït a entendre com es regula i silencia en el cor l’expressió dels gens de la via apoptòtica depenent de caspases durant el desenvolupament; a més, resultats no publicats demostren que les caspases regulen el procés d’expressió de gens en el cor i, contràriament a la maquinària depenent de caspases, TatD, una nucleasa, ’expressa abundantment al cor postnatal. Es desconeixen les funcions de la senyalització apoptòtica durant el desenvolupament cardíac, tot i que són essencials per al desenvolupament, a més, la senyalització independent de caspases implicada al dany cel•lular en els miòcits només es coneix parcialment, el nostre objectiu és contribuir al coneixement d’ambdós fenòmens. Creiem que les caspases podrien processar proteïnes reguladores de l’expressió de gens musculars alterant la seva activitat, mentre que TatD té un paper rellevant en el dany cel•lular però també en la funció cardíaca normal. Volem caracteritzar la contribució de les caspases 3 i 7 en el desenvolupament cardíac, utilitzant models in vivo (estem finalitzant els creuaments necessaris per a disposar dels animals amb el genotip desitjat) i in vitro (pràcticament hem preparat tot el material i hem optimitzat els protocols per a tirar-ho endavant). També volem caracteritzar la funció de TatD durant el desenvolupament i fisiologia del cor i conèixer-ne la seva funció utilitzant models in vitro i in vivo.

El treball de recerca té per objecte l’estudi dels avantatges que podria oferir la implantació de l’anomenada "justícia de proximitat" a Catalunya tot considerant, en especial, la seva virtualitat com a mecanisme de prevenció de la criminalitat a les grans ciutats. Aquest model de justícia presenta molts paral·lelismes, quant als seus objectius i finalitats, però també en relació amb alguns aspectes concrets de la seva configuració, amb la denominada mediació comunitària. Per això es presta especial consideració, per una banda, al pojecte de Llei orgànica de modificació de la Llei orgànica 6/1985, d’1 de juliol, del Poder Judicial, en matèria de justícia de proximitat i Consells de justícia, i , per altra banda a l’Avantprojecte de Llei de Mediació familiar i comunitària a Catalunya. Aquestes propostes de reforma legislativa són analitzades a la llum de les principals aportacions de la sociologia, la criminologia i la ciencia política en matèria de garantia de la seguretat ciudadana. També s’han pres en consideració diversos models de dret comparat. Els resultats de la recerca han posat de manifest que la garantia de la seguretat ciudadana s’ha d’articular a través de mecanismes basats en els principis de subsidiarietat, cooperació i participació, en la corresponsabilització de la societat i en la introducció d’instruments d’autoregulació normalitzats. Tenint en compte aquests resultats i les necessitats de reforma de l’organització jurisdiccional, es presenta en aquest treball un model de justícia de proximitat que s’articula principalment com un model de justícia de barri, que s’hauria de compatibilitzar amb la mediació comunitària, però que inclou també de forma paral•lela un sistema de justícia de les petites reclamacions.

La guatlla (Coturnix coturnix) és actualment una espècie amb un estat de conservació desfavorable. Una amenaça per a la seva conservació és la hibridació que pot produir-se degut als alliberaments massius amb finalitats cinegètiques de la guatlla japonesa (Coturnix japonica) o híbrids provinents de granges de cria. Els objectius d’estudi són: a) Aprofundir en el sistema sexual de la guatlla, ja que el seu coneixement pot permetre entendre els mecanismes d’hibridació amb la guatlla japonesa o híbrids. b) Conèixer la taxa de supervivència i l’eficàcia biològica dels individus no nadius a àrees de reproducció de la guatlla. c) Buscar evidències directes d’hibridació en condicions naturals i caracteritzar-la. d) Determinar si existeix competència espermàtica interespecífica mitjançant experiments en captivitat. S’ha seguit el comportament en condicions naturals de parelles homospecífiques i heterospecífiques de mascles i femelles de guatlla i de guatlla japonesa o híbrids. S’ha analitzat la paternitat dels polls d’aquestes parelles i s’ha pogut conèixer quins aspectes del comportament (segons l’espècie) es relacionen amb l’eficàcia biològica dels adults. S’han analitzat el mateix tipus de dades obtingudes durant cinc temporades reproductives, en les que hi van participar només individus de guatlla. Així s’ha pogut comparar el comportament de l’espècie en presència i absència dels individus al•lòctons. Els resultats indiquen que existeixen dues estratègies sexuals entre els mascles de guatlla. L’estat físic del mascle en relació al dels altres mascles coetanis i el temps de permanència amb la femella determinen la seva taxa de paternitat. Existeix una fracció relativament petita però significativa de guatlla japonesa de granja que sobreviu en condicions naturals i s’hibrida amb la guatlla silvestre, predominantment de forma unidireccional, entre femella japonesa i mascle de guatlla. Aquestes femelles presenten un sistema d’aparellament majoritàriament monògam. Els anàlisis sobre els experiments de competència espermàtica s’estan realitzant a l’actualitat.

In March 2015, over 80 people, representing food banks, churches, advice services, community organisations, statutory agencies and universities attended the ‘Enough is Enough’  launch event in City Church, Belfast to examine the rising demand for emergency food across the city.The ‘Enough is Enough’ project aims to harness the expertise of health and social care professionals, city councillors, advice workers, food banks, community and faith based organisations and strategic bodies across Belfast to collectively address the issue of food poverty. This scoping study lays the foundation for developing an action plan to tackle food poverty in Belfast in collaboration with the community, voluntary and statutory sectors.The Belfast Food Network (BFN) commissioned the project with funding from the Public Health Agency. The research was carried out by Jenny McCurry, who also wrote the report, on behalf of Advice NI.  The project was initiated and developed by Dr Elizabeth Mitchell, Institute of Public Health in Ireland, in her role as convener of the BFN Food Poverty Working Group (BFN/FPWG). Thanks are due to Kevin Higgins, Head of Policy, Advice NI, and Kerry Melville, Co-ordinator, BFN, for their involvement in the project.The BFN is a founding member of the pioneering Sustainable Food Cities Network (SFC). Therapidly growing BFN was established in March 2014 to work with partners to establish a successful Sustainable Food City in Belfast.ACCESS AUDIO AND VIDEO FROM THE EVENT

Excessive drinking contributes significantly to social problems, physical and psychological illness, injury and death. Hidden effects include increased levels of violence, accidents and suicide. Most alcohol-related harm is caused by excessive drinkers whose consumption exceeds recommended drinking levels, not the drinkers with severe alcohol dependency problems. One way to reduce consumption levels in a community may be to provide a brief intervention in primary care over one to four sessions. This is provided by healthcare workers such as general physicians, nurses or psychologists. In general practice, patients are routinely asked about alcohol consumption during registration, general health checks and as part of health screening (using a questionnaire). They tend not to be seeking help for alcohol problems when presenting. The intervention they are offered includes feedback on alcohol use and harms, identification of high risk situations for drinking and coping strategies, increased motivation and the development of a personal plan to reduce drinking. It takes place within the time-frame of a standard consultation, 5 to 15 minutes for a general physician, longer for a nurse.A total of 29 controlled trials from various countries were identified, in general practice (24 trials) or an emergency setting (five trials). Participants drank an average of 306 grams of alcohol (over 30 standard drinks) per week on entry to the trial. Over 7000 participants with a mean age of 43 years were randomised to receive a brief intervention or a control intervention, including assessment only. After one year or more, people who received the brief intervention drank less alcohol than people in the control group (average difference 38 grams/week, range 23 to 54 grams). For men (some 70% of participants), the benefit of brief intervention was a difference of 57 grams/week, range 25 to 89 grams (six trials). The benefit was not clear for women. The benefits of brief intervention were similar in the normal clinical setting and in research settings with greater resources. Longer counselling had little additional benefit.This resource was contributed by The National Documentation Centre on Drug Use.

Recently, the booming rural tourism in endemic areas of the state of Minas Gerais was identified as a contributing factor in the dissemination of the infection with Schistosoma mansoni. This article presents data from six holiday resorts in a rural district approximately 100 km distant from Belo Horizonte, MG, Brazil, where a possibly new and until now unperceived way of transmission was observed. The infection takes place in swimming pools and little ponds, which are offered to tourists and the local population for fishing and leisure activities. The health authorities of the district reported cases of schistosomiasis among the local population after visiting these sites. As individuals of the non-immune middle class parts of the society of big urban centers also frequent these resorts, infection of these persons cannot be excluded. A malacological survey revealed the presence of molluscs of the species Biomphalaria glabrata and Biomphalaria straminea at the resorts. The snails (B. glabrata) of one resort tested positive for S. mansoni. In order to resolve this complex problem a multidisciplinary approach including health education, sanitation measures, assistance to the local health services, and evolvement of the local political authorities, the local community, the tourism association, and the owners of the leisure resorts is necessary. This evidence emphasizes the urgent need for a participative strategic plan to develop the local tourism in an organized and well-administered way. Only so this important source of income for the region can be ensured on the long term without disseminating the disease and putting the health of the visitors at risk.

We present a method for segmenting white matter tracts from high angular resolution diffusion MR. images by representing the data in a 5 dimensional space of position and orientation. Whereas crossing fiber tracts cannot be separated in 3D position space, they clearly disentangle in 5D position-orientation space. The segmentation is done using a 5D level set method applied to hyper-surfaces evolving in 5D position-orientation space. In this paper we present a methodology for constructing the position-orientation space. We then show how to implement the standard level set method in such a non-Euclidean high dimensional space. The level set theory is basically defined for N-dimensions but there are several practical implementation details to consider, such as mean curvature. Finally, we will show results from a synthetic model and a few preliminary results on real data of a human brain acquired by high angular resolution diffusion MRI.
