Description of the project

Activity-based anorexia (ABA) is the main animal model used in the laboratory to study the role of restricted food intake and the central importance of excessive physical activity on the severe weight loss observed in the human disorder of anorexia nervosa. The procedure is usually carried out by individual isolation of animals, usually rats or mice, in a cage equipped with an activity wheel that they can access 23 hours a day and where food intake is limited to 1 h per day. Under these conditions, animals progressively perform more exercise despite eating less, and they lose weight until death unless they are withdrawn from the procedure. It is known that the impact that social stress (e.g. isolation) exerts on health is common to humans and other social mammals, where it has been observed that adverse social consequences cause pathologies with patterns parallel to those that occur in humans. In the present study, the animals’ social condition was manipulated to observe the effect of socialization in ABA development, its recovery, and the possible different influence of the variable sex on ABA development. The results allow us to deepen our knowledge of this phenomenon and how variables related to the social environment could affect the development and recovery of anorexia nervosa, in the hope that better prevention and therapy will be given to the patients that need them.

Description of the dataset

Dataset contains daily measurements of weight (percentage in relation to weight on day 0), food intake (number of grams of food consumed), food anticipatory activity (FAA) (number of wheel turns during the 2 hours before food time), postprandial activity (PPA) (number of wheel turns during the 2 hours after food time), total activity (FAA+PPA), activity distribution (number of wheel turns in each of the 1-minute intervals in which time of wheel access was divided), the days that each rat remained in the procedure until reached withdrawal criteria (survival), and the days necessary to recover the initial weight of each rat. The data were obtained from the 8 groups of rats in the experiment, with n = 10 subjects per group.

Methodology

The methodology of this study was experimental. The subjects were 80 Wistar Han rats 4 or 5 weeks old. After one week of quarantine and 4 days of acclimatization, the animals were semi-randomly assigned to the groups in a 2x2x2 design. The independent variables were: sex (male/female), social condition (individualization/group), and access to a running wheel (yes/no). Dependent variables were: 1) the percentage of weight, 2) grams of food intake, 3) the number of wheel turns during FAA and PPA, 4) the number of total wheel turns (FAA+PPA), 5) the number of days until reach withdrawal criteria, and 6) the number of days it took each withdrawn rat to regain its body weight in session 0.

Daily weight and food intake were manually recorded in an Excel datasheet to calculate the values of independent variables. The percentage of weight loss was calculated as the bodyweight of an animal in a particular day divided for its initial weight on session 0 and multiplied by 100. Total food consumed was calculated as the amount of food supplied minus the amount of food leftover. The number of wheel turns in FAA and PPA was automatically recorded through a MED PC IV program in individual *.txt files per subject and day. The distribution of activity was registered in 1-minute intervals. These measures were repeated during the fifteen days that the experiment lasted. The number of days to withdrawal was calculated as the number of days from session 0 to the day that a rat's weight was equal to or less than 75% of its initial weight. The number of days to recovery was calculated from the withdrawal day to the day the animal's weight was equal to or greater than its weight at session 0.

The Excel *.xlsx files has been saved as CSV UTF-8 (coma-separated values) (*.csv)

This study investigates the oxidative steam reforming (OSR) of simulated bio-oil aqueous fractions using Co/CeO2-SBA-15 catalysts. Five representative compounds – methanol, acetic acid, hydroxyacetone, phenol, and furfural – were evaluated to assess their reactivity for hydrogen production.

A partir de las figuras pétreas de los leones y grifos del patio central del Museo de Guadalajara - situado en el Palacio del Infantado-, realizadas en el siglo XV por el escultor flamenco Egas Cueman, se propusieron y realizaron dos proyectos artísticos, educativos y expositivos con el objetivo principal de impulsar el conocimiento, valoración y conservación del patrimonio que alberga la sede del museo, además de crear lazos de unión y conexiones entre el patrimonio y las personas a través del arte y la creatividad.

Los proyectos artísticos expositivos se apliacaron en varios contextos: a. con alumnado infantil por un taller privado de bellas artes asociado a la patente de la investigadora -Elena Garzía- (educación no formal) y b. con estudiantes adultos del Grado de Educación en Magisterio Infantil de la Universidad de Alcalá, con la investigadora como docente (educación formal), concluyendo ambos en exposiciones artísticas públicas en el Museo de Guadalajara: “Peque-arte en el Patio del Museo: Leones y grifos de Palacio” (del 16 a l 18 de junio de 2017) y “UAH-arte en el Patio del Museo de Guadalajara: Leones y grifos de Palacio” (del 2 al 26 de noviembre de 2017), con la presentación de un artículo final en una revista especializada del Boletín de Amigos del Museo de Guadalajara, que explica y documenta el proyecto con más profundidad.

Este dataset contiene los carteles de las dos exposiciones relacionadas, así como documentación fotográfica de la inauguración de la exposición del proyecto “UAH-arte en el Patio del Museo de Guadalajara: Leones y grifos de Palacio”, en la que aparece el espacio expositivo con las obras expuestas. Inauguración a cargo de la dirección del Museo de Guadalajara, decanato de la Facultad de Educación de la UAH, secretaría del Departamento de Educación de la UAH y coordinación del proyecto expositivo. También se incluye documentación fotográfica de procesos de creación del cartel de la muestra por la investigadora, así como documentación fotográfica de la exposición “Peque-arte en el Patio del Museo: Leones y grifos de Palacio”.
