Contrast effect on the perception of the severity of a criminal offence
(Colegio Oficial de Psicólogos de Madrid, 2016)
All the participants (undergraduate students) were exposed sequentially (one by one) to 5 brief descriptions of different actions constituting criminal offences according to the Spanish Penal Code. Each description was ...
The energy requirements of a developed world
(Elsevier, 2016-08)
Through history, special attention has been paid to the study of the relationship between the energy use of a country and its level of development. While the interest of this research area is unquestionable, the energy ...
High temperature internal friction in a Ti–46Al–1Mo–0.2Si intermetallic, comparison with creep behaviour
(Elsevier, 2016-01-15)
Advanced gamma-TiAl based intermetallics Mo-bearing have been developed to obtain the fine-grained microstructure required for superplastic deformation to be used during further processing. In the present work we have ...
Hidroxicloroquina en el tratamiento de las enfermedades autoinmunes sistémicas
(Sociedad Médica Santiago, 2016-02)
Hydroxychloroquine (HCQ) is by far the most frequently used antimalarial for the management of Systemic Autoimmune Diseases. It has immunomodulatory, hypolipidemic, hypoglycemic and antithrombotic properties and it diminishes ...
Macrophage-dependent IL-1 beta production induces cardiac arrhythmias in diabetic mice
(Nature Publishing, 2016-11-24)
Diabetes mellitus (DM) encompasses a multitude of secondary disorders, including heart disease. One of the most frequent and potentially life threatening disorders of DM-induced heart disease is ventricular tachycardia ...
Mitochondrial DNA Reveals the Trace of the Ancient Settlers of a Violently Devastated Late Bronze and Iron Ages Village
(Public Library Science, 2016-05-13)
La Hoya (Alava, Basque Country) was one of the most important villages of the Late Bronze and Iron Ages of the north of the Iberian Peninsula, until it was violently devastated around the 4th century and abandoned in the ...
1H-Imidazol-4(5H)-ones and thiazol-4(5H)-ones as emerging pronucleophiles in asymmetric catalysis
(Beilstein Institut, 2016-05-09)
Asymmetric catalysis represents a very powerful tool for the synthesis of enantiopure compounds. In this context the main focus has been directed not only to the search for new efficient chiral catalysts, but also to the ...
Stress-assisted atomic diffusion in metastable austenite D03 phase of Cu-Al-Be shape memory alloys
(Pergamon-Elsevier, 2016-11)
Cu-Al-based shape memory alloys are firm candidates to be used up to 473 K. The main limiting aspect is the activation of diffusion processes in the metastable austenite phase, which drive the alloy decomposition. In the ...
Nitrogen Source and External Medium pH Interaction Differentially Affects Root and Shoot Metabolism in Arabidopsis
(Frontiers Media, 2016-02-01)
Ammonium nutrition often represents an important growth-limiting stress in plants. Some of the symptoms that plants present under ammonium nutrition have been associated with pH deregulation, in fact external medium pH ...
Luminescence and Magnetic Properties of Two Three -Dimensional Terbium and Dysprosium MOFs Based on Azobenzene-4,4 '-Dicarboxylic Linker
(MDPI, 2016-02)
We report the in situ formation of two novel metal-organic frameworks based on terbium and dysprosium ions using azobenzene-4,4-dicarboxylic acid (H(2)abd) as ligand, synthesized by soft hydrothermal routes. Both materials ...
