RESUMEN

This paper gives a review of established and emerging technologies for the treatment of wastes and soils contaminated by Persistent Toxic Substances which include the Persistent Organic Pollutants. The technologies are classified as biological, physico-chemical, and thermal treatments, describing main unit operations and comparing technical, social and environmental limitations, including some potential risks and environmental impacts. Estimated overall costs, cleanup times, reliability, and maintenance levels are also presented in order to assess advantages and limitations of each technology.

RESUMEN

Six cases of perforated diverticulitis are presented that needed urgency surgery. The objective is to consider our guides of diagnosis and treatment towards this pathology and to justify Hartmann's operation as the technique of choice for these cases of generalised peritonitis.

RESUMEN

Actinomycosis is a chronic infectious disease, caused by an anaerobic gram positive microorganism, the actinomyces israelii. It grows by continuity toward adjacent organs, with formation of dense masses of woody tissue, producing draining abscesses and fistulae. General symptoms of this disease are fever, chills, in association with symptoms proper of each localization. The diagnosis is made when the "sulphur granules" that are characteristic of the pus of actinomycosis are found.

RESUMEN

391 patients were studied, 288 males whose average age was forty years old, and 103 females whose average age was forty-five years old. They were divided into three groups, according to the values of the diastolic blood pressure in basal conditions: a) Normotensive (less than 90); b) Borderline (90); c) Mild Hypertensive (95-100 mm Hg). Comparison between sexes and ages was also carried out, being these last results analyzed in two groups: from 20 to 40 years old and from 41 to 69 years old. The values of statistical significance were as follows: as to the group, both basal systolic and diastolic blood pressure, systolic and diastolic at 600 KGM and at 5 minutes of recuperation. As to sex: basal cardiac frequency at 600 KGM and diastolic blood pressure at 5 minutes of recuperation. Body weight did not show correlation with systolic or diastolic blood pressure at 600 KGM.

RESUMEN

One thousand six hundred and ninety-eight children and adolescents four to eighteen years-old were studied, eight hundred and forty of them were males and eight hundred and fifty-eight females. No individual following, was performed. Two determinations of both systolic and diastolic pressure were registered after a fifteen minutes rest, and the average figures of both, of them was registered. The group analyzed belonged to upper middle class and the hypertension figures were: females 28 (3.26%) and males 30 (3.57%). The influence of bodily area was observed en hypertensive patients. Those located between the average +/- two standard deviations were considered as normal. (95% of the cases).
