La diabetes es una alteración del metabolismo que afecta a millones de personas y aumenta el riesgo de muerte. Para controlar esta enfermedad, existen tratamientos farmacológicos y no farmacológicos. Dentro de estos últimos, se incluyen los alimentos funcionales, que son aquellos que tienen beneficios para la salud más allá de su valor nutricional. Estos alimentos pueden ayudar a regular los niveles de glucosa en sangre, que es el principal indicador de la diabetes. Para identificar qué alimentos funcionales son eficaces para la diabetes, se revisaron artículos científicos que evaluaron su efecto sobre la glucosa en ayunas, la glucosa postprandial y la hemoglobina glicosilada (HbA1c). Se encontró que el cacao, café, canela, ajo, guayaba, jengibre, arándanos y cúrcuma son alimentos funcionales que reducen estos parámetros, siendo la guayaba el más efectivo para bajar la glucosa postprandial. more...

Purpose: Drawing from the knowledge-based view of the firm, this paper aims to explore the knowledge management practices that the acquirer uses to exploit its knowledge creating conditions for the exploitation of the target’s knowledge and to explore its knowledge by realizing routines for the integration of new knowledge within the target. Design/methodology/approach: This paper presents an in-depth case study analysis based on the acquisition of a Dutch food service organization by an Italian company operating in the same sector. Findings: The case study analysis reveals four mechanisms for knowledge integration, two aimed at exploiting the acquirer’s knowledge, and two aimed at exploring the acquirer’s knowledge. Originality/value: This paper unveils that it is the interlinkage among organizational, human and technological factors, at multiple layers of the target, which allows the knowledge integration within the post-acquisition process. more...

Este artículo muestra los resultados de un proyecto de investigación sobre los procesos económicos y sociales que condujeron a la formación de los reinos númidas conocidos a través de las fuentes greco-latinas. Los trabajos de excavación y prospección realizados en la antigua Althiburos (El Kef, Túnez) y sus alrededores han permitido establecer la existencia, al menos desde el siglo IX a.C., de una sociedad aldeana plenamente sedentaria y que desde el s. VIII a.C., tal vez como consecuencia de los primeros contactos con el mundo fenicio, practica la metalurgia del hierro. Desde el siglo IV a.C. existen elementos que indican una vida plenamente urbana, unas relaciones intensas con Cartago y la existencia de un sistema institucional desarrollado. more...

Absolute past geomagnetic intensity values can mainly be recovered by fired archaeological materials and volcanic rocks. Here, we present 10 new archeointensities from the Mediterranean region that help to better constrain geomagnetic field intensity changes in Europe over the last two millennia. The new archeointensity results were obtained from the Thellier classical method including thermoremanent magnetization (pTRM) checks and both the TRM anisotropy and cooling rate corrections and were derived from at least three specimens. The new data presented, together with a selection of previous archeointensities satisfying a set of quality criteria, confirm the presence of several intensity maxima in Europe over the last 2000 years. In particular, the new archeointensities allow to better define the starting point of the double-oscillation feature that occurred in Europe during the second half of the first millennium CE, and reinforce the existence of a relative maximum at the end of the 14th century - beginning of the 15th century in Western Europe. From selected European archeointensities two new paleosecular variation curves are constructed for Western and Eastern Europe using temporal cubic b-splines in a bootstrap approach. The obtained curves suggest that the occurrence of the intensity maxima is characterized by a period of about 300 ± 50 years. In addition, our results suggest that the maxima do not occur simultaneously in Western and Eastern Europe, pointing out an intensity eastward drift with a mean lag-time of about 100 years., Ministerio de Ciencia, Innovación y Universidades (España), Fondo Europeo de Desarrollo Regional, Generalitat de Catalunya, Depto. de Física de la Tierra y Astrofísica, Fac. de Ciencias Físicas, TRUE, pub more...
