SAP R/3 - EIS : anà lisi i planificació d'un sistema EIS

Es comença parlant dels sistemes d'informació per a anar a parar al món dels ERP i, especialment, a un dels més importants a escala mundial, el SAP R/3. Després s'explica què són els DataWarehouses o magatzems de dades, com es creen i quines aplicacions tenen. Finalment, s'analitza i es planifica un cas pràctic: una empresa canvia d'ERP corporatiu per passar a SAP R/3 i, per tant, ha de canviar i adaptar el seu sistema EIS.

Gaston Paris - Joseph Bédier. Correspondance

Gaston Paris: le maître; Joseph Bédier: le disciple. Ces deux grands érudits, dont les car- rières glorieuses consacrent l'accession de la philologie romane, en France, au statut de dis- cipline scientifique, restent sans doute les deux figures les plus célèbres des temps héroïques de la médiévistique française.Tous deux professeurs au Collège de France et membres de l'Académie française, ils ont renouvelé l'image que non seulement les spécialistes, mais aussi le grand public se faisaient de la littérature du Moyen Âge: nous vivons aujourd'hui encore de leurs travaux.Tout les sépare (Bédier n'ayant eu de cesse de contester les idées de Paris), mais tout les unit, car tous deux professent un égal amour de la vérité et de la probité scientifique. Enfin réunie (même si on doit déplorer la perte de beaucoup de let- tres du maître), leur correspondance offre un tableau extraordinairement vivant et ins- tructif du débat incessant qu'ont mené les deux hommes et, surtout, d'une amitié profonde faite de respect mutuel et d'un désir sincère de voir la science l'emporter sur les querelles partisanes. Demandant à Bédier de se mesurer à lui de la même manière queTaras Boulba incitait ses fils à le battre, Gaston Paris répond ainsi d'avance à ceux qui après sa mort ont accusé Bédier d'avoir voulu "tuer" son maître. La présente publication ouvre une collection qui a l'ambition de nous restituer les plus belles correspondances des princi- paux représentants de la philologie romane des XIXe et XXe siècles.

Mitochondrial reactive oxygen species generation triggers inflammatory response and tissue injury associated with hepatic ischemia-reperfusion: Therapeutic potential of mitochondrially targeted antioxidants.

Mitochondrial reactive oxygen species generation has been implicated in the pathophysiology of ischemia-reperfusion (I/R) injury; however, its exact role and its spatial-temporal relationship with inflammation are elusive. Herein we explore the spatial-temporal relationship of oxidative/nitrative stress and inflammatory response during the course of hepatic I/R and the possible therapeutic potential of mitochondrial-targeted antioxidants, using a mouse model of segmental hepatic ischemia-reperfusion injury. Hepatic I/R was characterized by early (at 2h of reperfusion) mitochondrial injury, decreased complex I activity, increased oxidant generation in the liver or liver mitochondria, and profound hepatocellular injury/dysfunction with acute proinflammatory response (TNF-α, MIP-1α/CCL3, MIP-2/CXCL2) without inflammatory cell infiltration, followed by marked neutrophil infiltration and a more pronounced secondary wave of oxidative/nitrative stress in the liver (starting from 6h of reperfusion and peaking at 24h). Mitochondrially targeted antioxidants, MitoQ or Mito-CP, dose-dependently attenuated I/R-induced liver dysfunction, the early and delayed oxidative and nitrative stress response (HNE/carbonyl adducts, malondialdehyde, 8-OHdG, and 3-nitrotyrosine formation), and mitochondrial and histopathological injury/dysfunction, as well as delayed inflammatory cell infiltration and cell death. Mitochondrially generated oxidants play a central role in triggering the deleterious cascade of events associated with hepatic I/R, which may be targeted by novel antioxidants for therapeutic advantage.

Flow-R, a model for susceptibility mapping of debris flows and other gravitational hazards at a regional scale: some case studies

Every year, debris flows cause huge damage in mountainous areas. Due to population pressure in hazardous zones, the socio-economic impact is much higher than in the past. Therefore, the development of indicative susceptibility hazard maps is of primary importance, particularly in developing countries. However, the complexity of the phenomenon and the variability of local controlling factors limit the use of processbased models for a first assessment. A debris flow model has been developed for regional susceptibility assessments using digital elevation model (DEM) with a GIS-based approach.. The automatic identification of source areas and the estimation of debris flow spreading, based on GIS tools, provide a substantial basis for a preliminary susceptibility assessment at a regional scale. One of the main advantages of this model is its workability. In fact, everything is open to the user, from the data choice to the selection of the algorithms and their parameters. The Flow-R model was tested in three different contexts: two in Switzerland and one in Pakistan, for indicative susceptibility hazard mapping. It was shown that the quality of the DEM is the most important parameter to obtain reliable results for propagation, but also to identify the potential debris flows sources.

Latex constituents from Calotropis procera (R. Br.) display toxicity upon egg hatching and larvae of Aedes aegypti (Linn.)

Calotropis procera R. Br. (Asclepiadaceae) is a well-known medicinal plant with leaves, roots, and bark being exploited by popular medicine to fight many human and animal diseases. This work deals with the fractionation of the crude latex produced by the green parts of the plant and aims to evaluate its toxic effects upon egg hatching and larval development of Aedes aegypti. The whole latex was shown to cause 100% mortality of 3rd instars within 5 min. It was fractionated into water-soluble dialyzable (DF) and non-dialyzable (NDF) rubber-free materials. Both fractions were partially effective to prevent egg hatching and most of individuals growing under experimental conditions died before reaching 2nd instars or stayed in 1st instars. Besides, the fractions were very toxic to 3rd instars causing 100% mortality within 24 h. When both fractions were submitted to heat-treatment the toxic effects were diminished considerably suggesting low thermostability of the toxic compounds. Polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis of both fractions and their newly fractionated peaks obtained through ion exchange chromatography or desalting attested the presence of proteins in both materials. When submitted to protease digestion prior to larvicidal assays NDF lost most of its toxicity but DF was still strongly active. It may be possible that the highly toxic effects of the whole latex from C. procera upon egg hatching and larvae development should be at least in part due to its protein content found in NDF. However the toxicity seems also to involve non protein molecules present in DF.

Implantació en SAP R/3 de la fusió per absorció impròpia en les societats 'A1' i 'A2'

En el context actual sovint tenen lloc operacions juridicofinanceres de gran envergadura entre empreses del mateix grup, especialment en determinats sectors de l'economia. Aquestes operacions comporten la integració dels sistemes d'informació de les societats que s'hi troben afectades. El cas que ens ocupa fa referència a una operació de fusió per absorció de dues societats que pertanyen al mateix grup. Totes dues gestionen la seva activitat fent servir el sistema d'informació SAP/R3.

Beclin 1 mitigates motor and neuropathological deficits in genetic mouse models of Machado-Joseph disease.

Machado-Joseph disease or spinocerebellar ataxia type 3, the most common dominantly-inherited spinocerebellar ataxia, results from translation of the polyglutamine-expanded and aggregation prone ataxin 3 protein. Clinical manifestations include cerebellar ataxia and pyramidal signs and there is no therapy to delay disease progression. Beclin 1, an autophagy-related protein and essential gene for cell survival, is decreased in several neurodegenerative disorders. This study aimed at evaluating if lentiviral-mediated beclin 1 overexpression would rescue motor and neuropathological impairments when administered to pre- and post-symptomatic lentiviral-based and transgenic mouse models of Machado-Joseph disease. Beclin 1-mediated significant improvements in motor coordination, balance and gait with beclin 1-treated mice equilibrating longer periods in the Rotarod and presenting longer and narrower footprints. Furthermore, in agreement with the improvements observed in motor function beclin 1 overexpression prevented neuronal dysfunction and neurodegeneration, decreasing formation of polyglutamine-expanded aggregates, preserving Purkinje cell arborization and immunoreactivity for neuronal markers. These data show that overexpression of beclin 1 in the mouse cerebellum is able to rescue and hinder the progression of motor deficits when administered to pre- and post-symptomatic stages of the disease.

Proyecto para la identificación de necesidades formativas y posterior implementación de acción docente en el ERIE Psicosocial de C.R.N.

La responsabilidad del ERIE Psicosocial a la hora de realizar su labor en el marco de la intervención en emergencias debe ir necesariamente acompañada de una correcta identificación de las necesidades que el equipo tiene en lo que respecta a su formación e instrucción, de cara a mantener el nivel de respuesta en su labor. El desarrollo de herramientas y métodos capaces de definir estas variables es, pues el primer paso de este proceso. El formato de desarrollo posterior de esas acciones formativas, teniendo en cuenta el carácter grupal y cooperativo del grupo, debe ser estudiado y validado para obtener la máxima eficacia durante su materialización.
