Prova de camp específica de valoració de la resistència en tennis: resposta cardíaca i efectivitat tècnica en jugadors de competició

Malgrat que la resistència específica del jugador té una influència directa sobre el rendiment en el tennis, un esport intermitent de llarga durada, les proves utilitzades per valorar-la no solen incloure tasques motrius properes a situacions de joc reals i poden ser considerades de baixa especificitat. L’objectiu d’aquest estudi és desenvolupar una prova de camp de valoració de la resistència específica en tennis (Specific Endurance Tennis Test, SET-Test), analitzant el comportament de la freqüència cardíaca (FC) i de paràmetres d’efectivitat tècnica (ET), per tal d’esbrinar una possible relació entre ambdós paràmetres i d’aquests amb el rendiment esportiu en jugadors de competició. Van participar set tennistes masculins, als quals els va ser administrada una prova triangular, progressiva, contínua i d’intensitat màxima conduïda per una màquina llançapilotes, durant la qual es va registrar la FC i, al mateix temps, paràmetres objectius d’ET (precisió i potència) mitjançant el càlcul de percentatge d’encerts i errors. S’observa un punt de deflexió de la FC (PDFC) en un 86 % dels subjectes estudiats, previ o coincident amb una disminució de l’ET (punt de deflexió de l’eficiència tècnica, PDET). Aquests dos punts mesurats de forma simultània al llarg de la prova es mostren relacionats amb el rendiment competitiu dels jugadors estudiats. Es conclou que la prova proposada sembla un mètode específic i vàlid per avaluar la resistència específica i la condició aeròbica en tennistes, tot i que calen més estudis per tal de confirmar les hipòtesis plantejades i la validesa externa de la prova.

Políticas de acceso abierto a la ciencia en las universidades españolas

El objetivo del artículo es analizar el estado de la cuestión de las políticas en favor del acceso abierto (OA) a la ciencia en las universidades españolas. Para ello se han establecido cinco grandes mecanismos de intervención (la creación de infraestructuras y prestación de servicios, la comunicación y difusión, la incentivación económica, la coordinación institucional así como la reglamentación u obligación) que permiten llevar a cabo políticas a favor del acceso abierto y que hemos utilizado para el análisis y la valoración de la situación. La recogida de datos se ha basado en un cuestionario enviado a los vice-rectores de investigación y se ha complementado con la consulta de directorios de repositorios, revistas científicas españolas y políticas institucionales de acceso abierto. Los resultados muestran un panorama diversificado en relación a las actuaciones llevadas a cabo, pero han permitido clasificar las universidades en cinco grupos en función del número y de la calidad de acciones que han realizado. El primero, formado por siete universidades (9% del total) que disponen de una política completa en acceso abierto. El segundo incluye a doce universidades (16%) con una política destacada. El tercero, diecisiete centros (23%) con una política encaminada y el cuarto incluye otras diecisiete universidades (23%) que han implementado una o dos acciones. Finalmente, quedan las 21 universidades (28%) que no disponen de ninguna acción para favorecer el acceso abierto a la ciencia.

A signaling mechanism coupling netrin-1/deleted in colorectal cancer chemoattraction to SNARE-mediated exocytosis in axonal growth cones

Directed cell migration and axonal guidance are essential steps in neural development. Both processes are controlled by specific guidance cues that activate the signaling cascades that ultimately control cytoskeletal dynamics. Another essential step in migration and axonal guidance is the regulation of plasmalemma turnover and exocytosis in leading edges and growth cones. However, the cross talk mechanisms linking guidance receptors and membrane exocytosis are not understood. Netrin-1 is a chemoattractive cue required for the formation of commissural pathways. Here, we show that the Netrin-1 receptor deleted in colorectal cancer (DCC) forms a protein complex with the t-SNARE (target SNARE) protein Syntaxin-1 (Sytx1). This interaction is Netrin-1 dependent both in vitro and in vivo, and requires specific Sytx1 and DCC domains. Blockade of Sytx1 function by using botulinum toxins abolished Netrin-1-dependent chemoattraction of axons in mouse neuronal cultures. Similar loss-of-function experiments in the chicken spinal cord in vivo using dominant-negative Sytx1 constructs or RNAi led to defects in commissural axon pathfinding reminiscent to those described in Netrin-1 and DCC loss-of-function models. We also show that Netrin-1 elicits exocytosis at growth cones in a Sytx1-dependent manner. Moreover, we demonstrate that the Sytx1/DCC complex associates with the v-SNARE (vesicle SNARE) tetanus neurotoxin-insensitive vesicle-associated membrane protein (TI-VAMP) and that knockdown of TI-VAMP in the commissural pathway in the spinal cord results in aberrant axonal guidance phenotypes. Our data provide evidence of a new signaling mechanism that couples chemotropic Netrin-1/DCC axonal guidance and Sytx1/TI-VAMP SNARE proteins regulating membrane turnover and exocytosis.

Gold or green: the debate on Open Access policies

The movement for open access to science seeks to achieve unrestricted and free access to academic publications on the Internet. To this end, two mechanisms have been established: the gold road, in which scientific journals are openly accessible, and the green road, in which publications are self-archived in repositories. The publication of the Finch Report in 2012, advocating exclusively the adoption of the gold road, generated a debate as to whether either of the two options should be prioritized. The recommendations of the Finch Report stirred controversy among academicians specialized in open access issues, who felt that the role played by repositories was not adequately considered and because the green road places the burden of publishing costs basically on authors. The Finch Report"s conclusions are compatible with the characteristics of science communication in the UK and they could surely also be applied to the (few) countries with a powerful publishing industry and substantial research funding. In Spain, both the current national legislation and the existing rules at universities largely advocate the green road. This is directly related to the structure of scientific communication in Spain, where many journals have little commercial significance, the system of charging a fee to authors has not been adopted, and there is a good repository infrastructure. As for open access policies, the performance of the scientific communication system in each country should be carefully analyzed to determine the most suitable open access strategy.

Temaria, un portal de artículos de biblioteconomía y documentación.

Actualmente, la mayoría de revistas científicas se distribuyen a través de portales que recopilan gran cantidad de títulos y facilitan el acceso a ellos desde un único sitio web. El propósito de Temaria es poner a disposición de bibliotecarios y documentalistas todas las revistas de su área que se publican en formato digital, y hacerlo a partir de un sistema uniforme de descripción e indización.
