Objetius: Estudiar factors pronòstics de mortalitat per insuficiència cardiaca. Mètode: es van recollir en 101 pacients (edat mitja 85,9±6,3 anys): sexe, reingressos, paràmetres analítics, comorbilitat, índex de Charlson (ICh), Barthel (IB) i Lawton (IL), síndromes geriàtriques, test de Pfeiffer (TP). Resultats: Variables associades a mortalitat (p&0,05): sexe masculí (73,7% vs 35,4%), menor albúmina (3,2±0,5mg/dl vs 3,4±0,4mg/dl), menor IB previ (40,4±29,5 vs 61,2±26,5) i a l’alta (22,9±20,9 vs 39,6±24,2), menor IL (0,2±0,9 vs 1,9±2,5), major ICh (2,9±1,5 vs 2,4±1,3), inmovilitat prèvia (63,16% vs 36,84%), més reingressos (0,81±0,91 vs 0,48±0,71). Conclusions: factors relacionats: sexe masculí, situació funcional, comorbilitat, reingressos i albúmina.

He organitzat aquest escrit de la manera següent: començo amb una visió general de l'entorn social i econòmic de la comarca, faig esment de breus aspectes lingüístics dels mots, continuo amb un breu repàs de la literatura culinària, principalment a Catalunya, i amb una breu visió històrica, continuo amb el món del pa i de la pastisseria i acabo amb la visió més lúdica dels cócs: el moment de consumir-los. Finalment entro en l'exposició de les receptes més genuïnes dels cócs terraltins, mirant que quedi tot ben clar, gràcies a la informació desinteressada de les persones a qui he consultat, i les comparo amb altres de semblants que trobem en antics manuscrits medievals. Per acabar, mostro quines conclusions podem extreure sobre els cócs i els dolços de la Terra Alta, vinculades bàsicament amb el seu origen i la seva continuïtat fins als nostres dies.

The quantity of interest for high-energy photon beam therapy recommended by most dosimetric protocols is the absorbed dose to water. Thus, ionization chambers are calibrated in absorbed dose to water, which is the same quantity as what is calculated by most treatment planning systems (TPS). However, when measurements are performed in a low-density medium, the presence of the ionization chamber generates a perturbation at the level of the secondary particle range. Therefore, the measured quantity is close to the absorbed dose to a volume of water equivalent to the chamber volume. This quantity is not equivalent to the dose calculated by a TPS, which is the absorbed dose to an infinitesimally small volume of water. This phenomenon can lead to an overestimation of the absorbed dose measured with an ionization chamber of up to 40% in extreme cases. In this paper, we propose a method to calculate correction factors based on the Monte Carlo simulations. These correction factors are obtained by the ratio of the absorbed dose to water in a low-density medium □D(w,Q,V1)(low) averaged over a scoring volume V₁ for a geometry where V₁ is filled with the low-density medium and the absorbed dose to water □D(w,QV2)(low) averaged over a volume V₂ for a geometry where V₂ is filled with water. In the Monte Carlo simulations, □D(w,QV2)(low) is obtained by replacing the volume of the ionization chamber by an equivalent volume of water, according to the definition of the absorbed dose to water. The method is validated in two different configurations which allowed us to study the behavior of this correction factor as a function of depth in phantom, photon beam energy, phantom density and field size.

QUESTIONS UNDER STUDY: To investigate if two distinct, commercially available embryo culture media have a different effect on birthweight and length of singleton term infants conceived after IVF-ICSI. METHODS: University hospital based cohort study. Between 1 January 2000 and 31 December 2004, patients conceiving through IVF-ICSI at the University Hospital, Lausanne have been allocated to two distinct embryo culture media. Only term singleton pregnancies were analysed (n = 525). Data analysis was performed according to two commercially available culture media: Vitrolife (n = 352) versus Cook (n = 173). Analysis was performed through linear regression adjusted for confounders. Media were considered equivalent if the 95% confidence interval lay between -150 g/+150 g. RESULTS: Length, gestational age and distribution of birthweight percentiles did not differ between groups (for both genders). Analysis of the whole cohort, adjusted for a subset of confounders, resulted in a statistically not different mean birthweight between the two groups (Vitrolife +37 g vs Cook, 95%CI: -46 g to 119 g) suggesting equivalence. Adjustment for an enlarged number of confounders in a subsample of patients (n = 258) also revealed no relevant mean birthweight difference of +71 g (95%CI: -45 g to 187 g) in favour of Vitrolife; however, lacking power to prove equivalence. CONCLUSIONS: Our data suggest that significant differences in birthweight due to these two distinct, commercially available embryo culture media are unlikely.

Using media discourse analysis for material published by the press on schistomisasis in the city of Jaboticatubas, the possible determining factors of narrative and discursive constructions in the diffusion of information are discussed. It was observed that media discourse treats schistosomiasis in 1962 as something from the natural order. By 1997 and 1998, the media discourse strategies reveal ideological treatment in favor of certain social segments. Situations are identified in which social agents in specific contexts construct the meanings of this endemic disease. It was concluded that the economic organization of space was a determining factor in the production and circulation of the media discourses.
