One of the great problems raised in our country, to the point of having already reached jurisdictional hands, is how to channel the concessions of waterfalls completed in our country, since there is no single and uniform line of action in the same competent administration. To do this, we analyze how this important problem has been treated in the energy sector and in the market economy, in a comparative way, in three countries with important similarities, such as Spain, Italy and France.

Introduction: Due to its efficacy in the treatment of morbid obesity, roux-en-y gastric bypass (RYGB) continues to be a frequently performed intervention. However, a small group of patients may develop nutritional and metabolic complications that cannot be controlled with optimal medical treatment. In these cases, it may be necessary to reestablish the continuity of the gastrointestinal tract by reversing the RYGB (R-RYGB). Aim: To present the indications and results obtained in a series of patients who underwent to R-RYGB. Materials and Method: Identification and retrospective evaluation of all patients who underwent consecutive R-RYGB in our institution. Demographic and anthropometric characteristics of the original surgery and at the time of the reversal were recorded. Complications were classified according to Clavien-Dindo classification. Results: Seven patients were identified in whom an R-RYGB was performed. In 2 cases the reversal was due to short bowel syndrome, in 3 cases due to severe hypoglycemia refractory to medical treatment and in 2 cases due to chronic diarrhea. The median age at the time of the reversal was 55 years. The median time from primary surgery to reversal was 77 months. The median hospital stay was 6 days. There were no Clavien-Dindo complications ≥ III. The R-RYGB was able to reverse nutritional and metabolic complications in all cases. Conclusion: Restoring the continuity of the gastrointestinal tract allows control of nutritional and metabolic complications. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

In this paper we aim to look into French philosopher Gilles Deleuze's work in order to see whether there is such a thing as a 'reversal of Kantianism', parallel to his more well-known reversal of Platonism. To this end, we will propose, firstly, to read in the key of reversal the movements made by Deleuze regarding intensity and extension, on the one hand, and the paradox of inner sense, on the other. Then, we will analyze why Kant had already accomplished two great reversals, regarding the classical conception of both time and law, and consequently, we will develop the Deleuzean conception of Nietzschean eternal return as a simultaneous reversal of both aspects. Finally, we will inquire about the tropos of the aforementioned reversal, calling on the concepts of humor and irony. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

The use of anticoagulation is common practice in medicine today and therein lies its importance. This paper describes the different therapeutic strategies for the treatment of excess anticoagulation, because depending on the agent used, a special agent for the reversal is needed. The introduction of new oral anticoagulants promotes the study of new agents for the treatment of complications resulting there from; for the reversal, these agents are already in the last phase of clinical trials before proposed as a treatment option. The use of new strategies to reverse excessive anticoagulation can be done more safely by using new concentrates of clotting factors, which have well established precise indications and dosage.
