Hospital Arnau Vilanova Valencia has developed a harness axillary that fewer seroma after
intervention. In addition, the center uses metallic markers to locate small tumors that favor a
faster recovery and enhances the autonomy of patients.
The system devised in the Arnau Vilanova favors a faster recovery and improves autonomy of
patients.
Functional Unit of Pathology Mammary Hospital Arnau Vilanova Valencia has developed a compression
system that axillary fewer seroma (accumulation of fluid in the armpit after a lymphadenectomy)
after surgery on the armpit in breast cancer.
The system, which has been devised by the physicians of this unit and designed by orthopedist
Amparo Sotos, is a kind of belt bandolera which has been incorporated into an elastic compression
that fits over the hollow axillary, which avoids postoperative complications arising from this
type of intervention and improving the autonomy of patients.
Through this system is achieved by reducing both the number of patients with seroma and punctures
for the evacuation of the seroma and reduces the increase in linfedemas, discomfort and control
posquirúrgico.
Another initiative that has carried out this unit to facilitate the recovery of patients with
breast cancer and improve their quality of life is the signing of an agreement with the
Rehabilitation Service for the last of each month to receive necessary guidance in the
rules of hygiene, gymnastics and general advice to be followed as part of the prevention of
lymphedema.
One of the problems that are facing professionals dedicated to this disease is the loss of
references for locating cancers minimal (less than one centimeter) and the loss of referrals from
the area where the tumor is located behind the implementation of schemes neoadjuvant
chemotherapy.
The placement of a harpoon prior to surgery facilitates intervention, as it geared towards the
point where the injury is not palpable or toward the marker has been placed before chemotherapy.

Validate a pilot new services to citizens through
The Sector Barbastro is a pioneer in the application of new technologies in healthcare, stressing
among its telemedicine project, which aims to bring assistance to the population dispersed. Thus,
in June the town oscense will host a European Union forum on Telemedicine and their applications
in health practice. Specifically, the meeting will be held at the Congress and Exhibition Centre
For some years now, in Barbastro projects are being developed in collaboration with other
European and national institutions. Through the European Commission is participating in the pilot
project Optimum Health, which are also involved teams Danes and Italians. This is based on the
videoconference, is currently deployed throughout Aragon in its third phase.
In addition, teams of Barbastro are developing three other European projects-Eurogene, Dreaming
and SUP (Safety and Emergency Services in the Pyrenees) - joined by two other nationals linked to
the Ministry of Industry (Realth and Ispamat).
Delegations of the partners of the four European projects will meet in June in Barbastro. They
will be joined by members of two other projects, including Europeans, Better Breathing and Mpower
to encourage the sharing of knowledge among all and identify potential synergies to work
together.
During the forum, there will be informational presentations, workshops and hands-on workshops and
technology, with the main objective of creating awareness of the various telemedicine projects
Europeans. In addition, the organization of this meeting aims to further the objectives of each
plan, learn new technologies applied in this field, facilitate knowledge among those involved and
involve more professional. Are expected to attend some personalities from the world of
European telemedicine.
It has created a website which centralizes information on this
event and which is subsequently planned to publish the results.
Of the four European projects underway in Barbastro, highlights the Optimum Health, which seeks
the deployment of videoconferencing services in Aragon. The European Union contributes to the
financing.
Also with European investment projects are being developed and Eurogene Dreaming. The first aims
to provide support services for the elderly, such as monitoring and alarm manuals or condition
, as well as other services not essential for its technological autonomy
as visits by nurses and social workers, psychological support, delivery of meals , transportation
or special household. In total, the European budget for Barbastro is euros.
As to Eurogene, this project aims to create an international platform of preventive care by
incorporating genetic analysis of individual and his or her lifestyle. This has provided
euros from European funds.
On the other hand, Barbastro is developing two projects of the Ministry of Industry, Tourism and
Trade. This is the Realth (Remote Health), which works to achieve greater prosperity by improving
health services and optimizing the management of health care resources, and ISPAMAT, where the
sector Barbastro collaborating to validate a pilot new services to citizens through DTT in Fraga.
The budgets amounted t euros respectively.

Albacete collaborates with research groups
Albacete looking 'therapies to the letter' in cancer treatment
PROGRESS. Treatment of radiotherapy. THE TRUTH
Achieve 'therapies to the letter' for cancer treatment tailored to the characteristics of each
patient. That is the goal you are working in the Laboratory of Molecular Oncology Regional Center
for Biomedical Research (CRIB) led by Dr. Ricardo Sanchez.
This team has achieved a major breakthrough in research on molecular basis of transformation,
diagnosis and treatment of cancer, as it relates in particular to the role of signalling pathways
acting on the response to chemotherapy and radiotherapy treatments , trying to establish the
value as markers of a group of proteins and analyze how specific the role of these routes as a
means of resistance to the therapy against oncological diseases.
"We are trying to answer a question which is a classic in cancer, which focuses on finding
answers on the reasons why two people with the same tumor, the same age and habits respond or not
chemotherapy treatments with the aim, among others, to avoid in its day and if side effects,
bearing in mind that chemotherapy is a very aggressive therapy with side effects and very toxic.
To answer this question we have focused our research on a group of genes known as signalling that
are responsible for transmitting information from extracellular to intracellular environment,
"said Dr. Sanchez. In this way, are investigating changes in patterns of gene expression, ie stop
expressing genes and start others to do so.
Implication
What will be the implications on a practical level of these findings? The outcome of this
investigation may write to the detection of proteins in the biopsies of patients to medical
oncologists to convey information about what will happen. "If we can determine that a specific
protein will activate, the specialist in Oncology will have more concrete data response in the
treatment of malignant tumors, and implement the procedures and substances most appropriate for
each particular case and remove side effects" said Dr. Sanchez.
He added that the ultimate objective of the research is to "get what we might call a 'therapy to
the letter' because our aim is to determine that based on a series of genetic and biochemical
parameters we predict the patient's response to treatment that it administers, "said Dr. Sanchez.
At present, what is being done is to administer a cocktail of drugs and is the respondent to act
accordingly. "Our research aims, therefore, to avoid this test phase and testing and thus go to
the drug that can operate or have more chances to do so, which represents a gain of time in
treatment of cancer is a very relevant. This is the basis of our scientific study. Now, we have
discovered a protein that is critical to the resistance to therapy for a type of leukemia,
showing that the activation of this protein blocks the effect of the drug. If you translate these
findings into clinical practice, would mean that if detected this protein is not to administer
the drug and also eliminates the side effects, "explained Ricardo Sanchez.

Perpendicular to these guides light channels fluídicos
Investigators Nanophotonics Technology Center (NTC) of the Polytechnic University are developing
a sensor biochemist from 'user-friendly, cost-effective and fast', which will be used to detect
various diseases simultaneously from a small sample of blood.
This was reported today by the principal investigator, Dr. Daniel Hill, who has said that the
European project SABIO (Ultrahigh sensitivity Slot-wAveguide BIOsensor on a highly integrated
chip for simultaneous diagnosis of multiple diseases) is part of the Sixth Framework Programme,
began in January 2006 and lasts for three years.
The investigator stated that the objective of the research is to be able to detect any health
center or hospital Hepatitis B and C, citomeglovirus and liver cancer fast reliable without
having to send the sample to a laboratory , thus saving money and energy.
Daniel Hill, the project coordinator, has indicated that it only requires a simple drop of blood
and waiting for minutes to get the results.
In addition, this instrument will be compact and automated, thus easy to handle for a person with
little technical knowledge.
The 'box' or platform where the sample is introduced, incorporating the different components that
research units involved in SABIO have developed, primarily a chip photonics, a system to control
entry and exit lighting, anti-vibration system and another control the temperature, and that any
alteration of conditions can affect the outcome.
The chip that analyzes the sample is composed of components of nanometer size (1 millimeter =
which explains that with a single drop of blood will be able to obtain
reliable results.
Moreover, compared with the sensors currently available on the market, this device includes many
more areas of detection, thus generates a lot of data points which translates into greater
sensitivity in the measurement of a greater number of diseases with a sample small.
'There is no technology that can do so many tests in an area so small,' said Daniel Hill.
By reducing the sample, also reduces the amount of reagents used thereby lowering the process.
The design of the chip or biochemical sensor is the most complex.
It's made with silicon, the same material which manufactured electronic microchips phones or
computers, but transmits light rather than electricity.
This is possible thanks to the incorporation of a series of nanoguías light or 'guides slotted'
(slot-waveguides) that channel light.
In the same device, but placed perpendicular to these guides light channels fluídicos drive blood
sample.
At certain points the light intercepts fluid and the presence of 'targets' (antibodies or
antigens, depending on the case) modulates the intensity of transmitted light and there is a sign
indicating that the patient shows symptoms of the disease.
Hill explained that 'on the side walls of the channels are placed where optical receivers for the
detection of' targets', the electric field is very high and concentrated.
'Therefore, if there are' targets' on the sample to find their roots in the receivers, as his
presence changes the effective refractive index of the structure detection, the resonance
frequency was also amended effective ', has indicated.

factor that "deteriorates quality of life. "
EUROPE PRESS This was stressed today in a press conference the head of the Task Force of pain of
the Spanish Society of Primary Care Physicians , Emilio Blanco, on the occasion of the
celebration of the Jornadas national treatment of pain, which meet between today and
about doctors in Santiago.
According commented Dr. White, who serves as medical family in Valladolid, people who have pain
"must always consult a doctor." "There are people who do afternoon," said, pointing out that
"sometimes feel fear and can make is to prolong the suffering".
Thus, he stressed that in the case of chronic pain "be consulted as soon as possible and catch up
treatment will be better forever. In this vein, the president of Galicia and Semergen-doctor at
the health center Pilgrim Virgin of Pontevedra, Isidore Rivera, insisted that the pain "has the
potential to alleviate."
Therefore, Rivera said that these days claim that family doctors "know, forming and always treat
pain." Thus, invited physicians to convey that "there are solutions" because "is not something
that has to happen." "The stoicism in the twenty-first century should not exist", he said the
president-elect of the Spanish Society of Pain and head of the Pain Unit of the Hospital
Architect Marcide Ferrol, Manuel Camba.

Along these lines, Dr. Camba acknowledged that "it is a problem getting a relief of 100% and in
cases such as neuropathic pain - which suffers from a" very strong "and" continuing ", as
explained Emilio Blanco -- , "only reaches 30-40%" of relief. However, Manuel Camba stressed that
"there are technical enough to deal with any type of pain."
"Sometimes reaching suicide because it is unbearable," admitted the head of the Pain Unit at
Hospital Marcide Architect. However, he stressed that "in " failed "never a request for
euthanasia."
Thus, Camba said that the first professionals "will receive the patient" is the Primary Care
doctors, who "should get the first treatment of pain." These optional addressed in the health
care field to 84% with pain.
In addition, he pointed out that psychiatrists and psychologists working with these optional
units pain, which have all hospitals Galicians.
The overall objective of the meeting, which was developed through eight workshops as a practical
matter, it focuses on improving the training of family doctor to evaluate and treat "an efficient
and coordinated manner" with the other levels of health care patients they show any kind of pain.
According to the data, it is estimated that in Spain of the population consume analgesics
routinely, headache being the main reason.
This third edition, following the two previous meetings in Barcelona and Valladolid, includes
workshops "practical and interactive" in which cases will be dealt with and all involved two
rapporteurs, of whom at least one shall be a family physician.
The themes of the workshops will be neuropathic pain, oncology, antiflamatorios, pain and
depression, osteoarthritis - prevalent disease in adulthood which is not less than 20% of
consultations - fibromyalgia - affects between the population and cause a
deterioration of the quality of life - acute pain and headaches - considered one of the most

Obesity and stressed "the relationship between genes
The boticarios, key players in nutrition education
The CGCOF affects every age group deserves separate attention, and to more than harmacists who went to a new edition
of the National Conference for Food, organized by the school and CGCOF Tarragon. The message
conveyed to the audience was clear: the company considers the pharmacist a nutrition educator,
but there is increasing need to "adapt" the councils to the personal situation of each patient.
The National Conference of Food served to highlight the figure in the pharmaceutical nutritional
issues.
According to data from the General Council of Colleges Pharmacists (CGCOF), are received every
year in pharmacies Spanish ten million consultations on issues related to food, some questions
that go beyond those on healthy eating habits and interactions between drugs and food .
These data by themselves justify the conclusion of a new edition of the National Conference for
Food, which took place in Tarragona between the past , under the theme "Food, age
and health." A slogan that sums up the objective of the event organizers, the very CGCOF and COF
Tarragona as host agency, which is none other than the pharmacist to be able to resolve all
queries on food they raise patients.
All this without age or personal situation of each one of them is a handicap for this purpose.
"Every age group deserves special attention and tips different," says Consuelo de la Riva, vocal
feeding CGCOF.
The elapse of the three-day event seemed to follow a parallel with the actual cycle of life.
Thus, the inaugural conference on Thursday was devoted to the analysis of feeding babies. In this
connection, one aspect seemed to be clear on this opening day: the importance of recommending
pharmacies from breast milk as food "almost unique" in the first months of life.
The scientific arguments in this area were provided by Ricardo Closa, a member of the Neonatal
Unit at the University Hospital of Tarragona Joan, through the results of the study "The EU
Childhood Obesity Project, conducted at children in five European countries (Spain between
them). "Breastfeeding has been associated with a reduced risk of obesity later, while the high
protein intake during childhood is related to the appearance of high body mass index in the
future," he said.
More important is whether the councils pharmacists in the so-called "complementary feeding" of
the baby, because this kind of Juvenile occupy much space on the shelves of pharmacie
One of the most curious thereon as described Tormo Ramon, a member of the Hospital Quirón
Barcelona, which called for "pharmacists exercising in wet regions of Spain should recommend
harder administration of vitamin D to children for a few years age, to cover deficits of sunlight
in winter months. "
The symposia on food in adolescents and adults focused the day on Friday. In the case of the
former, unfortunately, the influence or the scope of the media and advertising is much greater
than that which can be exercised today pharmacist in them. However, according to Salvador Zamora,
a professor of Physiology at the University of Murcia, it is possible and necessary to reverse
the situation and that "in this group is where it is most manifest what may be the great epidemic
of twenty-first century: obesity."
The expert recalled that the lifestyles of adolescents "are those of the sedentary lifestyle,
which should be regarded as a disease for all the consequences that can have on health."
Obviously, he supported the healthy eating habits, but emphasised that obsessed to the limit for
healthy eating "also produces health disorders, such as Orthorexia."
In connection with these habits, took special mention in the debates of the day closing ligths
products and so-called 'miracle product' due to the erroneous perception that many consumers have
about them. "The abuse of these products not only will not help reduce weight, but it can help to
increase it," warned Francisca Perez, a professor of physiology.
The closing conference, "Nutrigenomics and personalized nutrition," was conducted by Alfredo
Martinez, a member of the Institute of Food Science Pamplona, which affected neither food nor
diets or councils, have equally in patients .
It focused on obesity and stressed "the relationship between genes and body mass," and recalled
that the genetic study of the individual "would prescribing personalized recommendations
regarding the nutritional advice or pharmacological treatment."

All this without age or personal situation of each one of them is a handicap for this purpose.
"Every age group deserves special attention and tips different," says Consuelo de la Riva, vocal
feeding CGCOF.
The elapse of the three-day event seemed to follow a parallel with the actual cycle of life.
Thus, the inaugural conference on Thursday was devoted to the analysis of feeding babies. In this
connection, one aspect seemed to be clear on this opening day: the importance of recommending
pharmacies from breast milk as food "almost unique" in the first months of life.
The scientific arguments in this area were provided by Ricardo Closa, a member of the Neonatal
Unit at the University Hospital of Tarragona Joan, through the results of the study "The EU
Childhood Obesity Project, conducted at children in five European countries (Spain between
them). "Breastfeeding has been associated with a reduced risk of obesity later, while the high
protein intake during childhood is related to the appearance of high body mass index in the
future," he said.
More important is whether the councils pharmacists in the so-called "complementary feeding" of
the baby, because this kind of Juvenile occupy much space on the shelves of pharmacie
One of the most curious thereon as described Tormo Ramon, a member of the Hospital Quirón
Barcelona, which called for "pharmacists exercising in wet regions of Spain should recommend
harder administration of vitamin D to children for a few years age, to cover deficits of sunlight
in winter months. "
The symposia on food in adolescents and adults focused the day on Friday. In the case of the
former, unfortunately, the influence or the scope of the media and advertising is much greater
than that which can be exercised today pharmacist in them. However, according to Salvador Zamora,
a professor of Physiology at the University of Murcia, it is possible and necessary to reverse
the situation and that "in this group is where it is most manifest what may be the great epidemic
of twenty-first century: obesity."
The expert recalled that the lifestyles of adolescents "are those of the sedentary lifestyle,
which should be regarded as a disease for all the consequences that can have on health."
Obviously, he supported the healthy eating habits, but emphasised that obsessed to the limit for
healthy eating "also produces health disorders, such as Orthorexia."
In connection with these habits, took special mention in the debates of the day closing ligths
products and so-called 'miracle product' due to the erroneous perception that many consumers have
about them. "The abuse of these products not only will not help reduce weight, but it can help to
increase it," warned Francisca Perez, a professor of physiology.
The closing conference, "Nutrigenomics and personalized nutrition," was conducted by Alfredo
Martinez, a member of the Institute of Food Science Pamplona, which affected neither food nor
diets or councils, have equally in patients .
It focused on obesity and stressed "the relationship between genes and body mass," and recalled
that the genetic study of the individual "would prescribing personalized recommendations
regarding the nutritional advice or pharmacological treatment."
Order to obtain a growing effectiveness of care
Recipe electronics and generic priorities in Murcia
Murcia will launch an Action Plan on rational use of medicine. To that end, the Ministry of
Health and the Health Service Murciano met last week to a group of experts from all the health
sectors which have formed working groups to develop proposals and study their operation.
But not starting from scratch, since the prescription for active and the first steps to implement
the electronic prescriptions are some initiatives that are already part of previous programmes
and are priority objectives for managers of the Ministry of Health.
The meeting also presented the best national and international experience in use of medicines and
assessed the plans that have been put in place in the region. , the working groups
formed to meet again to make a fresh assessment of the initiatives.
The plan, which will last for three years, will work on ten aspects: quality indicators of
limitation, information systems, maintenance and training of professionals, by prescription
ingredient coordination between levels of care, safety of the drug, regulation of the visit
relationships with the medical and pharmaceutical industry, incentives for professionals, citizen
participation, involvement of the pharmacies and the role of nursing.

Casimiro Jimenez, director general of Planning, Finance and Health Policy pharmaceutical CF

Spanish political sources attach great importance
Germany has been incorporated into the club of countries pursued by the European Commission for
the constraints which sets its pharmaceutical model of self-opening of offices of pharmacy for
institution warns that some provisions of the German Pharmacy Act could be in violation of
freedom of establishment contained in Article of the Treaty of EC. This article prohibits any
restriction on the free opening of establishments for citizens or entrepreneurs of a EU member
state in another Member State and is the legal basis on which is based the complaint against
Spain and three other countries (Italy, Austria and France).
Germany is among the countries who defend the state competition to regulate health services. Only
pharmacists can own a botica and medicines can only be dispensed in a pharmacy. So far it has not
taken a decision on the Spanish case once that after the issue of a reasoned opinion, the
allegations were received from the Spanish Government to defend the model of pharmacy.
Although Brussels has set the first quarter of as the deadline to make its decision on
whether or not to send the case to Spanish European Court of Justice, Spanish sources have
pointed to a CF that the Commission will wait, probably, to be issued a decision on the Italian
case before taking a decision on Spain. "Brussels needs a bed on which to base legal recourse
against Spain-say these sources, and not all of them have to respect the decision on Italy"
This whole process-the opening of new cases of infringement, the delay of the sentence Italy, the
French presidency of the EU which starts in the second half and the position of Paris against the

is good news for the Spanish government.
In a system as complex as the EU, which has great difficulty achieving internal agreements,
especially after the failure of the Constitution, the Court is the only institution that manages
to establish common doctrine and the Commission, which found strong resistance to their
liberalizers projects for the pharmacy, can not act without providing the reaction of the court

Moreover, girls older than this age may choose to be vaccinated buying their dosage, but should

In fact, barely two months ago that the COF Malaga approved the establishment of a register to
register their members who wish to exercise their right to conscientious objection in dispensing
drugs, such as the morning-after pill (pdd), or health products such as condoms.
This decision was made after confirmation that the new Law on Pharmacy reservation to the
Government of Andalusia the right to open a pharmacy, in addition to the criteria for planning,

medical devices mandatory minimum tenure. " In this regard, lawyers consulted by this newspaper

He adds that "it is seriously disturbing to create records of objectors: one thing is that the
objector, using his right eye expressed by the channel as it deems appropriate (via professional

Health satisfy doctors and nurses
The ministry has not ensured that the ministerial order of the 'prescription' nurse a reality
before the election. However, it seems that it has managed to calm the protests of the WTO
removing Annex III, which makes unlimited use of prescription drugs without medical supervision
It seems that the Ministry of Health has made closer positions between WTO and the CGE
When it appeared that the ministerial order that develops the 'prescription' nurse would, as had
been agreed at the outset despite the disagreement of the WTO, the Ministry of Health has tried
to bring positions between nurses and doctors before sending a document to the State Council.
However, the new text-that is not yet the final-has not been without controversy. While
filtration of the same has not sat well with the Ministry of Health, the WTO has agreed to the
new wording to remove Annex, the point that generated controversy. In fact, the ministerial
decree ignores this annex, which included groups with therapeutic medications not subject to
prescription.
The proposed order, therefore, retains the article referring to podólogos. With regard to nurses,
remains Annex medical devices that can authorize them, however, while the point from the
previous drafted specifying medicine are not subject to prescription-those in Annex - That
remark has now disappeared and the text contains only "medicine are not subject to prescription,
implementation of the protocols for its rational use."
This could mean, therefore, that even expand the number of drugs that nursing can be used to make
or authorize such allusion general before being targeted by Annex .
Yes included, however, a new comparison with the previous text, which specifies that
developed the "institutional protocols for joint action" in the two elaborations of the
order-health professionals graduates who have responsibility in the process care of that question
through their professional and scientific organizations.
It also adds a 4 indicating that the health authorities of the autonomous communities may add
other medical devices specified in Annex II, according to their portfolios complementary services
to the portfolio of common services NHI.
For the WTO, it has been a step toward understanding. Thus, as discussed its general secretary,
Juan Jose Rodriguez Sendín, this new wording contains proposals that the organization has done in
its allegations, specifically in the conclusions of the same. Thus, it is remarkable for the
Council which has withdrawn Annex "that was what raised great reluctance." "Here comes close
to what we wanted and provides an insight into what they also want the other group and we make a
positive assessment," said Rodriguez Sendín. However, the secretary-general did not want to make
further assessments about the content of the order until finally as can be seen, waiting to
happen.
More cautious was the chairman of the General Council of Nursing. Maximum Gonzalez jury has not
wanted to make statements to the media until the conclusion of negotiations with the Ministry of
Health on issues of corporate responsibility, although, given the new text, the order would even
'prescribe' to all medicines without nurses recipe, of course, once agreed by joint protocol and
with the approval of the physician.
In this case, what is clear is that the ministerial order had not seen the light of day before
the election and it probably will before the start of the next Parliament as the opinion of the
Council of State, to go through ordinary could take more than a month, so that the deadlines for
Bernat Soria as a minister in office, and could have been finished.

The vaccine may be able to control blood pressure
Only two injections a, rather than daily pills that many hypertensive breach. This
is what we promise an immunization, which is currently in development, aimed at a
substance-related blood pressure problems. The treatment just to show signs of their safety and
efficacy in a trial of hypertensive patients.
"The results of this new biotherapy for hypertension are intriguing and promising. Vaccine could
prove very useful in many patients," study,
both published in the latest issue of the journal 'The Lancet' .
Although currently there are effective drugs and patterns (eating tips, exercise ...) against
hypertension, many patients do not comply with their therapy. This helps the fact that it is a
chronic disease, but with no symptoms. Hence the usefulness of a vaccine, which would simplify
matters: "The ease of a few injections per year would encourage better adherence to treatment,"
say researchers from the Swiss company Cytos Biotechnology, the same as working on an
immunization against nicotine.
The 'strategy' of the vaccine hypertension is similar to that of many modern antihypertensive
(ACE inhibitors, inhibitors of renin ...), that act on an important regulator of blood pressure:
the renin-angiotensin system. The vaccine is a mixture of a hormone of this circuit: angiotensin
II (a peptide in the blood that cause vasocontricción and therefore raises blood pressure) and a
particle similar to the viral capable of waking up defenses.
Results
"La vacuna induce anticuerpos contra la angiotensina II e impide que ésta se una a sus
receptores. Así que el modo de acción es bastante similar al de los fármacos convencionales, con
la excepción de que la duración de la respuesta inmune de la vacuna está en around four months,
compared to six of medicines, "explained elmundo.es Martin Bachmann, one of the
signatories of work. So, suffice estimated that two or three injections per year to maintain
tension 'at bay. "It seems realistic," he adds.
In fact, the study found that people who received a high dose of the vaccine managed to lower the
tension in a similar way to what is achieved with low doses of renin inhibitors, the authors say.
The tension was between and mm Hg lower than that of participants who received a placebo
injection-.
Bachmann also highlights an unexpected discovery: blood pressure seemed to diminish especially
. "The increase in the morning blood pressure is a problem with poorly
controlled drugs , and that the majority of heart attacks, strokes, etc.. Occur at this time
of day," explains the researcher.
Caution
The study was conducple between had a moderate hypertension (between
Hg systolic and the were divided into three groups:
patients received low doses of vaccine (an initial injection and two other souvenir few weeks
later), many others about higher doses, and a third group served as the control group, receiving
injections of a substance harmless.
The main objective of this test was to verify the safety of the treatment, something that seems
tested, at least in the short term: "Most of the side effects were mild and transient," write the
authors. Basically, flu-like symptoms, fever ... all of them frequently with other vaccines. In
this essay has not been that alters other cells defensive, "so it does not lead to an
uncontrolled stimulation of the immune system," they write.
However, the authors of the commentary still have doubts about the side effects of treatment,
"whether it would be safe to inhibit the action of angiotensin II for several months," they
write. The circuit which is part of (the renin-angiotensin system) plays an important role in the
homeostasis and "in situations of decreasing salt or liquid, as a severe dehydration, clinical
trauma or shock, rapid activation of this system is crucial" they write.
Recall also the failure, a few years ago, the promising vaccine against Alzheimer's, which also
encouraged defenses against a peptide of our own body.
The authors acknowledge that both the effectiveness and safety of the vaccine will have to be
tested in further studies. It is also necessary to determine whether the effects on hypertension
occur in other patients, such as the elderly. "There is no reason to think that will not work in
severe hypertensive or other population groups," said Bachmann. Still, this researcher believes
that the ideal candidate for immunization would be newly diagnosed with hypertension. "For these
patients, the vaccine may be able to control blood pressure without additional medication," he
says.
Currently, they are making two new clinical trials and, when finished, will begin a trial phase

substance-related blood pressure problems. The treatment just to show signs of their safety and
efficacy in a trial of hypertensive patients.
"The results of this new biotherapy for hypertension are intriguing and promising. Vaccine could
prove very useful in many patients," study,
both published in the latest issue of the journal 'The Lancet' .
Although currently there are effective drugs and patterns (eating tips, exercise ...) against
hypertension, many patients do not comply with their therapy. This helps the fact that it is a
chronic disease, but with no symptoms. Hence the usefulness of a vaccine, which would simplify
matters: "The ease of a few injections per year would encourage better adherence to treatment,"
say researchers from the Swiss company Cytos Biotechnology, the same as working on an
immunization against nicotine.
The 'strategy' of the vaccine hypertension is similar to that of many modern antihypertensive
(ACE inhibitors, inhibitors of renin ...), that act on an important regulator of blood pressure:
the renin-angiotensin system. The vaccine is a mixture of a hormone of this circuit: angiotensin
II (a peptide in the blood that cause vasocontricción and therefore raises blood pressure) and a
particle similar to the viral capable of waking up defenses.
Results
"La vacuna induce anticuerpos contra la angiotensina II e impide que ésta se una a sus
receptores. Así que el modo de acción es bastante similar al de los fármacos convencionales, con
la excepción de que la duración de la respuesta inmune de la vacuna está en around four months,
compared to six of medicines, "explained elmundo.es Martin Bachmann, one of the
signatories of work. So, suffice estimated that two or three injections per year to maintain
tension 'at bay. "It seems realistic," he adds.
In fact, the study found that people who received a high dose of the vaccine managed to lower the
tension in a similar way to what is achieved with low doses of renin inhibitors, the authors say.
The tension was between and mm Hg lower than that of participants who received a placebo
injection-.
Bachmann also highlights an unexpected discovery: blood pressure seemed to diminish especially
. "The increase in the morning blood pressure is a problem with poorly
controlled drugs , and that the majority of heart attacks, strokes, etc.. Occur at this time
of day," explains the researcher.
Caution
The study was conducple between had a moderate hypertension (between
Hg systolic and the were divided into three groups:
patients received low doses of vaccine (an initial injection and two other souvenir few weeks
later), many others about higher doses, and a third group served as the control group, receiving
injections of a substance harmless.
The main objective of this test was to verify the safety of the treatment, something that seems
tested, at least in the short term: "Most of the side effects were mild and transient," write the
authors. Basically, flu-like symptoms, fever ... all of them frequently with other vaccines. In
this essay has not been that alters other cells defensive, "so it does not lead to an
uncontrolled stimulation of the immune system," they write.
However, the authors of the commentary still have doubts about the side effects of treatment,
"whether it would be safe to inhibit the action of angiotensin II for several months," they
write. The circuit which is part of (the renin-angiotensin system) plays an important role in the
homeostasis and "in situations of decreasing salt or liquid, as a severe dehydration, clinical
trauma or shock, rapid activation of this system is crucial" they write.
Recall also the failure, a few years ago, the promising vaccine against Alzheimer's, which also
encouraged defenses against a peptide of our own body.
The authors acknowledge that both the effectiveness and safety of the vaccine will have to be
tested in further studies. It is also necessary to determine whether the effects on hypertension

women and 2 drinks per day or less for men) during a continuous period.
So, it was discovered that after , the new moderate drinkers had a 38% lower chance of

One study, led by researchers at the Centro Andaluz de Developmental Biology, center of the mixed
Pablo de Olavide University, CSIC and Government of Andalusia, reveals that the gene is Meis1 key
processes that use cells in the formation of the retina. The finding, which helps to clarify the
way the nervous system in vertebrates, it can also provide more information on the development of
certain cancers. The findings of the study have been published in the scientific journal
Development.
The researcher at the Centro Andaluz de Developmental Biology Fernando Casares, director
of research, contextualizes the results: "Advancing the knowledge of the formation of the eye is
important, not only because it was the essential part of the visual system but also because is a
good model for understanding how the nervous system is built. " The reason lies in its
simplicity: "Unlike the brain, the retina needs to train fewer types of neurons and glia cells
(cells that protect and assistants bring food to neurons, which facilitates their study," he
adds.
Specifically, the investigation reveals, in the format of the zebrafish, Meis1 that the gene is
essential to encourage the proliferation of cells during the formation of the retina, and that
their action is required for the expression of two powerful promoters of cell proliferation ,
ciclinaD1 and C-Myc.
Casares clarifies this concept: "The development of any body requires two phases. The first phase
of proliferation, is the multiplication of the cells until the body has adequate size. At this
point, the cells become differentiated from each other to assume different functions necessary
for the body to function in question. " Meis1 is needed to keep cells in the first phase for the
development of the retina. The expression of Meis1 has to be "off" to allow retinal cells begin
to differentiate into development.
The researcher explained that the finding represents a further step in the understanding of the
biology of development, an area "essential" of modern biology, but it still has a long way to go:
"The scientific community does not know for the moment how formed a body in detail, from the
specification of its primordium through the specification of the various cell types that comprise
it, to how it determines the size and shape of it. We could not cite the instructions to be
formed, for example, the wing of a fly, which is perhaps the best studied body. "
UNDERSTAND INJURY AND DISEASE
Thus, the finding provides new data to the discipline of developmental biology. This area, as
Fernando Casares, is essential in modern biology and key, inter alia, to understand the molecular
mechanisms of diseases such as cancer.
In fact, the research that has led Casares suggests a mechanism to explain how the gene might
participate Meis1 the development of acute myeloid leukemia, a type of cancer generated by an
excess of blood cells undifferentiated. "In leukemias, Meis1 not off in the precursor cells (stem
cells) in the blood and they continue to proliferate indefinitely," explains the researcher. "Our
work identifies Meis1 such as a gene that promotes cell proliferation through the control of key
cell cycle genes."
The scientist who qualifies is not yet known what molecular mechanisms prevent the gene off and
recalled that Meis1 could be implicated in the origin of other cancers.
On the other hand, he said Casares, the elimination of Meis1 drift microoftalmia. "Knowing more
about how they form the retina and the involvement of the gene Meis1 in its development could
help repair damage to the eyes, especially since we use the zebrafish as a model."
The investigator CABD extends this idea: "In the case of human beings, wear and damage to the eye
only be cured by medical aid. However, fish and amphibians are able to heal their eyes actually
regenerating damaged parts. Perhaps the study of these capabilities will give us clues to find
out why our eyes do not.

The serious problems facing the mentally ill
Around mentally ill of the Valencia are on the waiting list for access to one of the few
places in homes for the existing aid from the Regional Administration, according to sources
assured yesterday by the Federation of Public Service of the UGT.
According to these sources, in the past s the Government has granted only 10 new aid,
"usually at the death of a user move allows the provision to another."
Toni Femenía, said here that the Single Economic Performance , which are the
support given to the mentally ill in order to gain access to a private residence "have not
increased in this period.
In this connection he stressed that the association responsible for the whole of the Valencia
region alone there are 220 public squares, "which is clearly insufficient."
The 900 families that according UGT no access to public places in residences are forced to resort
to private establishments, but the lack of aid prevents this possibility among those with the
lowest income.
"Besides, adds Toni Femenía-who have been able to access it has been found that while aid has
increased only 2%, the amount to be paid has risen by since the residences are taken by law
to hire more staff, especially health, bringing an h increased their expenditures and also
shifting the cost to users. "
In absolute terms, the relatives of the mentally ill have gone to pay 1,300 euros to 1,800 euros.
To zastopanje these fares has caused, according to the union, that some families of mentally ill
people "had to bring their relatives because they can not pay the rises."
The situation is compounded, according to the source, the special characteristics of these
mentally ill: "Many of them are drug addicts, alcoholics or schizophrenic who have to be cared
for by their families, with the risks and without that they can receive the attention
professionalized they deserve, "said the head of Mental Health UGT.
Moreover, the Government is giving priority to the recognition of aid dependency to the sick who
are already in public residences, instead of giving priority to the 900 that are already being
cared for by their families. "
Here Femenía anticipated that the Government might be "receiving aid of their own."
Lastly, the FSP-UGT has demanded the Government to take "urgent action and to begin to provide
solutions to the serious problems facing the mentally ill and their families for a clear

political parties, and in particular to the Members who have elected left in them to contribute
to pursue her vote during the next legislative three measures whose effect on public health would
be "extremely beneficial" if unimplemented someday.
These measures, for which the CNPT not preclude requesting the assistance of regional and
European parliaments, through ensuring that all public places are totally smoke free snuff, by
withdrawing the price of snuff Index of Consumer Prices and ensure quality and equity within the
national health system for all patients and therefore also the access of scientists effective
treatments for smokers to quit.
Few, if not almost no practical effect, however, were on the agendas of the parties in relation
to snuff. The PSOE generically stated that it will continue "to promote conditions and healthy
living habits in particular in those behaviors, habits and customs that are associated with the
most prevalent diseases," including smoking.
The PP, the only one who said to be funded by the drug addiction, which included "establishing a
programme against smoking through information and social awareness, prevention and detoxification
smoking habit." Compared to them, CiU included a reference to the effect "continue to support
measures for the prevention and fight against smoking and alcoholism."
Among the parties with less implantation in the electorate, ERC was the only one who addressed
the issue more directly. So he applied "to ensure that non-smokers can live without snuff in
public areas" and "not to allow the use of snuff in private premises where minors." For its part,

As populations most at risk are identified
Truce for allergic next spring
This spring allergic to the pollen will have a truce, as the low rainfall experienced in recent
months allow foresee few months of May and June pollination moderate. "The concentration of
pollen tends to be marked by rainfall in autumn, which in this case has been limited.
Marta Serrano Romero.
En consecuencia, esperamos que las concentraciones de polen de gramíneas no superen los
granos por metro cúbico de aire, lo que consideramos para la región centro una primavera entre
leve y moderada", explicó Javier Subiza, presidente del Comité de Aerobiología de la Sociedad
Española of Allergology and Clinical Immunology , in presenting forecasts for the next
allergy season last week in Madrid.
As reported CF last week, the high temperatures this winter caused more allergy during this
period, due to increased pollination cupresáceas in the early months of the year. But for the
same reason, the spring will come with a smaller number of pollen grains from plants that
pollinate during the months of May and June.
The increased awareness will lead the grasses, with a 87 percent of pollen grains, followed by
other botanical families as olives, quenopodiácea,
percent cupresáceas and parietaria
Allergy urban
Subiza noted that "the inhabitants of large urban areas and the center of the peninsula more
polisensibilización show that the coastal and northern Spain, where the pattern is the
monosensibilización the grasses.
The explanation may lie in the levels of pollution: diesel particles in suspension, which can
reach levels of percent in the atmosphere, could influence greater allergenicity of
proteins and sensitising children defenses of the nasal mucosa.
Immunization
Aparte de las medidas higiénicas y otras cuestiones a las que deben atender los más de seis
millones de alérgicos que hay en España, como las posibles reacciones cruzadas (más de un millón
puede sufrir también alergias alimentarias, cerrar las ventanas por la noche, ventilar the house
at dusk, avoiding hot or dry weather and wind, the experts stressed immunization, as vaccine was
less than 1t of allergic to pollen, dust mites or hymenopterans.
El presidente de la Seaic, Tomás Chivato, señaló que "la inmunización es la única forma eficaz
hasta ahora demostrada de corregir el curso de la alergia (tanto con vacuna subcutánea como
sublingual), siempre y cuando no se interrumpa y se continúen las dosis de memory for a minimum
Consider, for example, that percent of riníticos just develop bronchial
asthma unless vaccine. "
The experts also stressed the preventive treatment based on inhaled steroids to avoid the
appearance of the first symptoms in people who are already diagnosed. The predisposition of a
person to suffer allergic reactions is an environmental risk factor for suffering latex allergy.
As populations most at risk are identified workers in the health environment, allergic to certain
fruits such as avocado, chestnuts, kiwi fruit or banana, atopic patients, multioperados patients,
especially children with spina bifida. Therefore, the experts recommend that any reaction is to
go to allergy.
