    Mortality, morbidity and drug consumption in a rural area (Spain) (1995)

    Notes: Abstract A descriptive study was made of the health indicators in 5 rural municipalities of the province of Castellón (Spain), with a total of 1428 inhabitants. This population is characterized by its aging, 36.9% of all individuals being older than 65 years. A retrospective evaluation was made of the annual mortality rates between 1940 and 1990, and of morbidity and medications consumption for the period between June 1991 and May 1992. An increase in general mortality was observed during the study period, though the rates also diminished in relation to age groups, sex and cause of death. In addition, 59.45% of the study population made use of healthcare services in the course of one year, an average of 2.59 drugs being prescribed per inhabitant in that same period. Morbidity in decreasing order of importance was attributed to acute respiratory disease, osteomuscular disorders, hypertension, depression and gastric pathology. Medications for the common cold and coughing were the most frequently used drugs, along with pain-killers, cardioactive agents, psycholeptics and non-sterioidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs). Aging causes the mortality variations recorded, despite the socio-sanitary improvements observed in the zone during the study period. Aging may also be related to the important use of healthcare services and of drugs noted in the study. The highest morbidity rates and drug consumption levels corresponded to chronic diseases that deteriorate patient quality of life without actually increasing mortality.

    The evolution of breast cancer mortality and morbidity in Spain (1977–1988) (1996)

    Notes: Abstract A study of breast cancer mortality and cancer morbidity has been carried out in Spain recently for the period 1977–1988, covering the population of the 17 Autonomous Communities and 50 provinces of the country. Data was obtained from INE, Instituto Nacional de Estadistica (National Institute of Statistics), with age standardization using the indirect method. The different Autonomous Communities and provinces were compared in order to establish possible significant differences. The crude mean mortality rate was 21 cases per 100,000 inhabitants/year; Las Palmas, Gerona, Barcelona, the Balearic Islands, Navarra and Zaragoza have the highest mortality rates, with a proportional increment of 54% in that period. The crude national mean morbidity rate for the considered period was 64.0 cases per 100,000 inhabitants, and the proportional increment 180%. According to provincial figures, Alava had the highest fitted mean morbidity rate, 135 cases per 100,000 inhabitants, whilst the highest fitted mean rate was Las Palmas (28 cases/100,000 inhabitants), and the highest proportional increment was the rate for the province of Huesca (169%). When using the ANOVA test on the mean rate of the period, for mortality as well as morbidity, we observed significant differences among provinces and among Autonomous Communities (p ⩽ 0.05).

    Differences between Dianthus caryophyllus L. cultivar in in vitro growth and morphogenesis are related to their ethylene production (1999)

    Notes: Abstract The involvement of ethylene in the vitro development of shoots from nodal segments of two cultivars of carnation (Dianthus caryophyllus L.) was studied. Shoots of cv. Barbaret Antares showed low hyperhydricity in contrast with the high levels showed by cv. Barbaret Tanga when both were cultured in airtight culture vessels. Longer shoots were produced, in both cases, when the rate of gas exchange in the culture vessel was increased by using vented closures, which also prevented hyperhydricity and increased the multiplication coefficient in cultures of Barbaret Tanga. The two cultivars produced ethylene throughout the culture period but, a higher amount was produced during the first, second and fourth weeks in culture by the cultivar more sensitive to ventilation (Barbaret Tanga). Trapping ethylene did not produce any effect on cv. Barbaret Antares but improved the quality of cv. Barbaret Tanga explants, decreasing hyperhydricity and increasing the number of shoots, the length of the main shoot and the multiplication coefficient. These effects were more marked when ethylene was trapped during the first two weeks in culture.

    Ethylene involvement in in vitro organogenesis and plant growth of Populus tremula L. (1997)

    Notes: Abstract The role of ethylene in the organogenesis in vitro of nodal segments of poplar (Populus tremula L) was studied. The results indicate that there is a relationship between organogenesis and ethylene because inhibition of its synthesis with AVG, added to the standard MS medium containing naphthalene acetic acid (NAA) and 6-benzylaminopurine (BAP), inhibited shoot elongation, induction and development of buds and root formation. These effects were reversed when the explants were transferred to standard MS medium before 20 days and not later than 30 days after treatment. Conversely, 1-aminocyclopropane-1-carboxylic acid (ACC) and 2-chloroethylphosphonic acid (CEPA) stimulated all these responses. Explants cultured on MS medium produce ethylene during culture. Furthermore, AVG inhibited ethylene production whereas ACC and CEPA enhanced it. Therefore ethylene can be related with organogenesis in explants of Populus tremula L.
