First evidence of nanoplastics in Antarctica soil
Plastic contamination has become a global concern, with evidence even in remote regions like Antarctica. While macro- and microplastics have been documented in Antarctic marine ecosystems, their presence in soils - particularly submicro- and nanoplastics - remains poorly studied. This study analyses soil samples from the McMurdo Dry Valleys collected on January 8th to 28th, 2023, and reports the first detection of nanoplastics - including polypropylene, polyethylene, polyethylene terephthalate, ...

Diccionarios bilingües para comunidades indígenas en México. Estudio de caso en la década de 1950
In this paper we describe a sample of bilingual vocabularies between Spanish and an Amerindian language compiled in Mexico by the Instituto Lingüístico de Verano / Summer Institute of Linguistics in the 1950s. To narrow down our study, we restricted our analysis to dictionaries of the Oto-Manguean and Mayan language families and, within these, we selected seven works belonging to different linguistic subgroups. In addition to presenting the nomenclature referring to three representative letters ...
Representations of the Spanish-Speaking World in a Language Textbook: When Culture and Language are Matters of Heritage
This article examines cultural representations in a Spanish language textbook within the framework of a sociolinguistic study on Spanish diatopic varieties and identity in mixed-language—with both L2 learners and heritage speaker students—secondary school classrooms in Verona. As in any linguistic ethnography, the texts with which participants interact are crucial data evidence—particularly in the case of language textbooks, which are understood to both reflect and shape language ideologies thro...
Should we focus on sustainable thromboprophylaxis and avoid overuse of low-molecular-weight heparins?
Low-molecular-weight heparins (LMWHs) have become a near-routine prescription for venous thromboembolism (VTE) prevention in hospitalized patients in several parts of the world. Their use may be reinforced by embedded order sets and ‘opt-out’ defaults. However, the absolute clinical benefit of universal pharmacologic thromboprophylaxis for many low-risk medical inpatients appears small. Symptomatic VTE rates are low, mortality benefits with LMWH use are not clearly demonstrated, and any reductio...
