El joc d'esquena del davanter centre al futbol, és més eficaç jugant de cara o girant-se?

Segons Castelo (1999, 2009) i Ardá i Casal (2003) la fase ofensiva del futbol es divideix en la fase de progressió, en la qual es busca progressar a porteria, i en la fase de manteniment o emergència, en la qual s’assegura la possessió de la pilota. L’objectiu és analitzar si quan el davanter centre rep la pilota d’esquena a porteria, es manté amb més eficàcia la possessió jugant en progressió o en emergència durant els 5” posteriors a la recepció de la pilota per part del davanter. L’estudi és Descriptiu d’Observació Directa, en aquest s’observen i s’analitzen, a través de vídeos, 10 partits de la fase de grups de la fase final de la Eurocopa 2012, en concret els partits són dels grups A i B. Els resultats confirmen la hipòtesi inicial, ja que es manté amb més eficàcia la pilota quan aquesta es juga en emergència (71%) que no pas en progressió (54%).

Issue review : school district cash reserve levy.

During the recent economic crisis, school district budgets have been impacted by state school aid funding shortfalls and state aid reductions due to across-the-board general fund reductions in fiscal year 2009 and fiscal year 2010. Additionally, in fiscal year 2011, the state school aid appropriation was capped and was 156.1 million dollars short of fully funding the state portion of the school aid formula. This issue review examines the impact that the reductions in state aid have had on school district cash reserve levies.

Els nens i nenes amb “Dictamen d’escolarització” i amb suport del CDIAP: estudi de les dimensions de l’atenció a les necessitats especials de l’alumnat, entre tres i sis anys, escolaritzat en un centre públic de la comarca d’Osona

La meva recerca ha tingut com a punt de partida “Els nens i nenes amb “Dictamen d’escolarització” i amb suport del CDIAP: estudi de les dimensions de l’atenció a les necessitats especials de l’alumnat, entre tres i sis anys, escolaritzat en un centre públic de la comarca d’Osona”. A partir d’aquí, s’ha elaborat un marc teòric a partir de les lleis d’educació, decrets que regulen els diferents serveis i un seguit de conceptes bàsics. Un cop elaborat aquest marc teòric per tal de recollir les dades dels alumnes, de tres a sis anys, d’una escola en concret s’ha dissenyat un instrument de recollida de dades que li diem full resum de serveis (FRS). El FRS és un instrument que ens ha servit per recollir totes les dades d’alumnes amb necessitats específiques i, sobretot, per saber quin suport reben per part de l’escola i per part d’altres serveis. A més a més, per recollir informació sobre els diferents serveis que atenen aquesta diversitat s’ha elaborat un guió d’entrevistes (GE). Aquest GE serveix per recollir els aspectes més importants de les entrevistes realitzades a l’EAP (Equip d’Assessorament i Orientació Psicopedagògica), CDIAP (Centre de Desenvolupament Infantil i Atenció Precoç) i CSMIJ (Centre de Salut Mental Infantil i Juvenil). A partir de la informació extreta dels dos instruments, s’han elaborat unes conclusions respecte els objectius plantejats en aquest projecte i la pregunta plantejada a l’inici.

An evaluation of the inorganic and organic geochemistry of the San Vicente Mississippi Valley-type zinc-lead district, central Peru: Implications for ore fluid composition, mixing processes, and sulfate reduction

Mississippi Tialley-type zinc-lead deposits and ore occurrences in the San Vicente belt are hosted in dolostones of the eastern Upper Triassic to Lower Jurassic Pucara basin, central Peru. Combined inorganic and organic geochemical data from 22 sites, including the main San Vicente deposit, minor ore occurrences, and barren localities, provide better understanding of fluid pathways and composition, ore precipitation mechanisms, Eh-pH changes during mineralization, and relationships between organic matter and ore formation. Ore-stage dark replacement dolomite and white sparry dolomite are Fe and rare earth element (REE) depleted, and Mn enriched, compared to the host dolomite. In the main deposit, they display significant negative Ce and probably Eu anomalies. Mixing of an incoming hot, slightly oxidizing, acidic brine (H2CO3 being the dominant dissolved carbon species), probably poor in REE and Fe, with local intraformational, alkaline, reducing waters explains the overall carbon and oxygen isotope variation and the distributions of REE and other trace elements in the different hydrothermal carbonate generations. The incoming ore fluid flowed through major aquifers, probably basal basin detrital units, with limited interaction with the carbonate host rocks. The hydrothermal carbonates show a strong regional chemical homogeneity, indicating access of the ore fluids by interconnected channelways near the ore occurrences. Negative Ce anomalies in the main deposit, that are absent at the district scale, indicate local ore-fluid chemical differences. Oxidation of both migrated and indigenous hydrocarbons by the incoming fluid provided the local reducing conditions necessary for sulfate reduction to H2S, pyrobitumen precipitation, and reduction of Eu3+ to Eu2+. Fe-Mn covariations, combined with the REE contents of the hydrothermal carbonates, are consistent with the mineralizing system shifting from reducing/rock-dominated to oxidizing/fluid-dominated conditions following ore deposition. Sulfate and sulfide sulfur isotopes support sulfide origin from evaporite-derived sulfate by thermochemical organic reduction; further evidence includes the presence of C-13-depleted calcite cements (similar to-12 parts per thousand delta(13)C) as sulfate pseudomorphs, elemental sulfur, altered organic matter in the host dolomite, and isotopically heavier, late, solid bitumen. Significant alteration of the indigenous and extrinsic hydrocarbons, with absent bacterial membrane biomarkers (hopanes) is observed. The light delta(34)S of sulfides from small mines and occurrences compared to the main deposit reflect a local contribution of isotopically light sulfur, evidence of local differences in the ore-fluid chemistry.

Early intensification and autologous stem cell transplantation in patients with systemic AL amyloidosis: a single-centre experience.

Primary systemic amyloidosis (AL amyloidosis) continues to have a very poor prognosis. Most therapeutic strategies remain unsatisfactory. Conventional chemotherapy is known to offer at best only moderate efficacy. Several studies have yielded higher complete response rates after high-dose chemotherapy and autologous stem cell transplantation (ASCT) in addition to improving outcomes in a subgroup of patients. However, the superiority of an intensive approach in AL amyloidosis has not been confirmed in a randomised trial. The precise role of ASCT remains unclear. We report our experience in 16 patients diagnosed with AL amyloidosis and treated in a multidisciplinary approach with high-dose melphalan and ASCT. Median age was 59 (39-71) years. The kidneys were predominantly affected in 75% of cases; two or more organs were affected in 38%. Median time from diagnosis to transplantation was 2 (1-4) months. Three patients (19%) developed acute renal failure and required transient dialysis. Transplant-related mortality was 6% after 100 days. Haematological complete response (CR) was obtained in nine (56%) and organ response in six (38%) patients. Nine out of 12 patients (75%) with kidney involvement exhibited a sustained clinical benefit at 12 months. Half of all the patients (n = 8) were alive after a median follow-up of 33 months, including two in continuous CR. This suggests that high-dose chemotherapy and ASCT are still valid treatment options in AL amyloidosis and that a significant number of patients with renal involvement might benefit from this approach.

El projecte de convivència de centre. Una manera de treballar l'autonomia i la convivència de l'alumnat

L’escola és un reflex de la societat en la que s’inscriu. Una societat democràtica comporta una escola que visqui i practiqui la democràcia. Els nostres drets, les nostres llibertats i els nostres deures descansen sobre la nostra autonomia i responsabilitat. Una manera de treballar aquests aspectes a l’escola és des del projecte de convivència de centre, on s’ha d’incardinar tota la vida del centre educatiu. Educar en valors exigeix conviure amb ells en tots els àmbits de la nostra vida. Educar en valors significa, també, educar la capacitat de valorar. Aquesta capacitat de valorar ens permet ser persones lliures, crítiques, justes i solidàries, conscients de la realitat del nostre entorn més immediat i del context mundial en general, i compromeses amb la humanitat, amb les generacions futures i amb la sostenibilitat del planeta. D’acord amb aquestes consideracions, el projecte de convivència de centre pot fonamentar-se en els següents tres grans blocs de valors, en els quals hi podem encabir els valors, entesos com les nostres opcions de vida: a) el valor de la persona humana i la seva dignitat; b) el valor de la democràcia i la ciutadania; i c) el valor de la igualtat i la diferència.
