The Early Cretaceous San Juan Plutonic Suite, Ecuador: A magma chamber in an oceanic plateau ?

Sections through an oceanic plateau are preserved in tectonic slices in the Western Cordillera of Ecuador (South America). The San Juan section is a sequence of mafic-ultramafic cumulates. To establish that these plutonic rocks formed in an oceanic plateau setting, we have developed criteria that discriminate intrusions of oceanic plateaus from those of other tectonic settings. The mineralogy and crystallization sequence of the cumulates are similar to those of intra-plate magmas. Clinopyroxene predominates throughout, and orthopyroxene is only a minor component. Rocks of intermediate composition are absent, and hornblende is restricted to the uppermost massive gabbros within the sequence. The ultramafic cumulates are very depleted in light rare-earth elements (LREE), whereas the gabbros have flat or slightly enriched LREE patterns. The composition of the basaltic liquid in equilibrium with the peridotite, calculated using olivine compositions and REE contents of clinopyroxene, contains between 16% and 8% MgO and has a flat REE pattern. This melt is geochemically similar to other accreted oceanic plateau basalts, isotropic gabbros, and differentiated sills in western Ecuador. The Ecuadorian intrusive and extrusive rocks have a narrow range of epsilonNd(i) (+8 to +5) and have a rather large range of Pb isotopic ratios. Pb isotope systematics of the San Juan plutonic rocks and mineral separates lie along a mixing line between the depleted mantle (DMM) and the enriched-plume end members. This suggests that the Ecuadorian plutonic rocks generated from the mixing of two mantle sources, a depleted mid-oceanic ridge basalt (MORB) source and an enriched one. The latter is characterized by high (Pb-207/Pb-204)(i) ratios and could reflect a contamination by recycled either lower continental crust or oceanic pelagic sediments and (or) altered oceanic crust (enriched mantle type I, EMI). These data suggest that the San Juan sequence represents the plutonic components of an Early Cretaceous oceanic plateau, which accreted in the Late Cretaceous to the Ecuadorian margin.

A simple and economic slide micro-immunoenzymatic (Micro-SIA) test for epidemiological studies of toxoplasmosis

A slide micro-immunoenzymatic assay (micro-SIA) to detectantibodies to non-particulate Toxoplasma gondii antigens is described. This assay allows the diagnosis of toxoplasmosis infection in about 1 hr. Twenty-four determinations can be performed per slide. Five hundred ng of antigen and 5 or 10 µl drop of each reactive are necessary per well. The clear contrast of colours obtained for negative and positive sera after the test is finished, allows direct discrimination of the results. However, it is possible to quantify the results of the reaction using a minireader. Sera dilution cutoff value, determined as themost frequent titre for the general population, is 1:100. The toxoplasma micro-SIA correlates well with indirect immunofluorescence (IIF), its sensitivity is atleast three times as much as IIF. The test has an intra and inter assay variation coefficient of 5.46 per cent and of 6.24 per cent respectively. Sera obtained at random from argentinian people were analyzed and a 56 per cent of infection was found. The main features of the Toxoplasma micro-SIA are its simplicity, sensitivity, reproducibility, and the virtual absence of background making it very suitable for screening tests.

La formación de un humanista. Juan Ramón Masoliver (1910-1936)

Juan Ramón Masoliver perteneció a una generación privilegiada en cuanto a su formación. Promovió la revista Hèlix, altavoz del surrealismo en Catalunya, y estuvo en contacto con el núcleo surrealista francés. Conoció a James Joyce y Ezra Pound, dos intelectuales claves para su formación y su desarrollo cultural posterior. También en esta época entró en contacto con corrientes de pensamiento cercanas al fascismo. Con todas sus experiencias construyó un excéntrico personaje que, en su madurez, contaría con la simpatía de numerosos intelectuales.

Colocaciones léxicas en dicconarios monolingües generales del español

El objetivo de la presente investigación es analizar el tratamiento que algunos de los diccionarios generales monolingües del español aparecidos en los últimos diez años han dado al fenómeno de las colocaciones léxicas, a saber, aquellas combinaciones de palabras que, desde el punto de vista de la norma, presentan ciertas restricciones combinatorias, esencialmente de carácter semántico, impuestas por el uso (Corpas: 1996). Los repertorios objeto de análisis han sido: el "Diccionario Salamanca de la lengua española", dirigido por Juan Gutiérrez (1996); el "Diccionario del español actual", de Manuel Seco, Olimpia Andrés y Gabino Ramos (1999); la vigésima segunda edición del diccionario de la RAE (2001); y el "Gran diccionario de uso del español actual. Basado en el corpus Cumbre", dirigido por Aquilino Sánchez (2001). Nuestro estudio se ha fundamentado en un corpus de 52 colocaciones léxicas confeccionado a partir del análisis de las subentradas contenidas en la letra "b" de cada uno de los diccionarios seleccionados. Posteriormente, hemos examinado las entradas correspondientes a cada uno de los elementos que constituyen la colocación (base y colocativo) con el fin de observar si los diccionarios estudiados dan cuenta de estas mismas combinaciones en otras partes del artículo lexicográfico, como son las definiciones o los ejemplos. A la hora de analizar la información lexicográfica hemos centrado nuestra atención en cuatro aspectos: a) la información contenida en las páginas preliminares de cada una de las obras; b) la ubicación de las colocaciones en el artículo lexicográfico; c) la asignación de la colocación a un artículo determinado; y d) la marcación gramatical.

Urban ecology of Triatoma infestans in San Juan, Argentina

This study was performed in an urban neighborhood of the capital city of the province of San Juan, Argentina. Erected as a housing complex, the place consists of 768 flats distributed in buildings of three and seven floors each. A survey was carried out in 33% of the dwellings, enquiring about the number of Triatoma infestans found indoors, stage of the bug development - nymph or adult - and how these insects had entered their homes. Adult T.infestans were found on all floors; 163 people (64%) had found them at least once, and 130 (51%) several times. Dispersal flight seems to have been the main mechanism of infestation by adult bugs in this area, and a total of 51% of the surveyed inhabitants reported that the insects had flown into their flats.

Neuropatía autonómica cardiovascular en pacientes diabéticos sometidos a trasplante simultáneo páncreas-riñón

El trasplantament simultani de pàncrees i ronyó (SPK) és una alternativa terapèutica en pacients amb DM-1 i nefropatía diabètica terminal. No obstant això, les complicacions cròniques derivades de la DM solen estar molt avançades al moment de la realització del trasplantament. L'objectiu del treball és estudiar la neuropatía diabètica (somàtica i autonòmica) en pacients candidats a trasplantament SPK a la Comunitat Valenciana i valorar l'evolució de la mateixa al cap de 3 i 5 anys del trasplantament, prestant especial atenció a aquells pacients en els quals s'aconsegueix un estat de normoglucemia després del trasplantament

Laboratory evaluation of Mesocyclops annulatus (Wierzejski, 1892) (Copepoda: Cyclopidea) as a predator of container-breeding mosquitoes in Argentina

In laboratory bioassays we tested the predatory capacity of the copepod Mesocyclops annulatus on Aedes aegypti and Culex pipiens larvae. A single adult female of M. annulatus caused 51.6% and 52.3% mortality of 50 first instar larvae of Ae. aegypti and Cx. pipiens respectively, in a 72 h test period. When alternative food was added to the containers, mortality rates declined to 16% and 10.3% for Ae. aegypti and Cx. pipiens respectively. When 50 first instar larvae of each of the two mosquito species tested were placed together with a single adult female of M. annulatus, mortality rates were 75.5% for Ae. aegypti larvae and 23.5% for Cx. pipiens larvae in a three day test period. Different density of adult females of M. annulatus ranged from 5 to 25 females produced mortality rates of Ae. aegypti first instar larvae from 50% to 100% respectively. When a single adult female of M. annulatus was exposed to an increasing number of first-instar Ae. aegypti larvae ranging from 10 to 100, 100% mortality was recorded from 1 to 25 larvae, then mortality declined to 30% with 100 larvae. The average larvae killed per 24 h period by a single copepod were 29.

Related factors to human toxocariasis in a rural community of Argentina

The objective of this study was to evaluate the relationship between toxocariasis frequency and demographic, environmental, sanitary variables, eosinophylia, and other intestinal parasites in a rural population of Argentina. Serological examination of 100 individuals was carried out by using ELISA technique for the detection of anti-toxocara antibodies. Eosinophiles in peripheral blood, presence of intestinal parasites, and demographic, environmental, and socio-cultural data were evaluated. Eighty-one feces samples of dogs belonging to the studied people were analyzed to detect eggs of Toxocara canis. Thirty of them were from 30 dogs and 51 were pools from dog feces. Samples of dirt from around the homes (n: 47) and from public park (n: 4) were taken. To determine the associations, the c² and Fisher tests were used. The seroprevalence was 23%. Eosinophilia in peripheral blood was detected in 86.95% seropositive individuals and in 37.66% seronegative individuals (p < 0.001, OR = 11.03). Of the 23 people with positive serology, 69.56% had at least one intestinal parasite. All individuals with positive serology had dogs in their homes. Among the dog owners there was a significant association between the presence of anti-toxocara antibodies and home flooding. Eggs of T. canis were detected in the feces of 5/81 dogs and three of these dogs belonged to individuals with positive serology. Eggs of Toxocara spp. were found in 41.17% of the dirt samples, eight of which came from the area surrounding the homes of individuals with positive serology (p = 0.032; OR = 4.36). Taking into account all the variables influencing the frequency of toxocariasis in this population, the implementation of Public Health programs specifically focused on anti-parasitic treatment of dogs is recommended.
