Cardiovascular diseases (CVD) continue to be the main cause of death in our country. Adequate control of lipid metabolism disorders is a key challenge in cardiovascular prevention that is far from ...being achieved in real clinical practice. There is a great heterogeneity in the reports of lipid metabolism from Spanish clinical laboratories, which may contribute to its poor control. For this reason, a working group of the main scientific societies involved in the care of patients at vascular risk, has prepared this document with a consensus proposal on the determination of the basic lipid profile in cardiovascular prevention, recommendations for its realization and unification of criteria to incorporate the lipid control goals appropriate to the vascular risk of the patients in the laboratory reports.
Isotactic propene/higher α-olefin quenched copolymers at intermediate commoner contents primarily crystallize into a mesomorphic phase.
Several isotactic propene-α-olefin copolymers using 1-octene, ...1-dodecene and 1-tetradecene as comonomers (CiPO, CiPDD and CiPTD, respectively) have been synthesized and their structure and thermal/mechanical/viscoelastic properties have been evaluated. At intermediate comonomer molar content ranged from around 4 to 9, the mesomorphic phase is developed under rather mild quenching conditions and independently of length of the comonomer. Thermal and mechanical parameters diminish as α-olefin content increases and their dependence on composition changes as function of existence of three-dimensional monoclinic crystallites or less ordered entities.

Hyperglycerolemia is a very rare genetic disorder caused by glycerol kinase deficiency. Although usually is presented unexpectedly in routine checks, there are severe forms, especially in children. ...In general, glycerol and glycerol kinase activity analyses are not included in routine laboratory determination. Glycerol presents positive interferences with some biochemical analytic techniques, e.g. in serum triglycerides and plasma ethylene glycol levels assays. Here, we report a Spanish patient with a pseudo-hypertriglyceridaemia, a falsely elevated triglycerides concentration that was not corrected with lipid-lowering therapy for 3 years.
