      El dolor crónico es un problema de salud pública de primer orden que afecta aproximadamente al 30% de la población adulta. Muy a menudo resistente a los tratamientos farmacológicos, el dolor se acompaña con frecuencia de un gran sufrimiento que perturba la vida cotidiana de quienes lo padecen. Las intervenciones psicológicas —que no pretenden curar el dolor, sino ayudar a los pacientes a desarrollar recursos psicológicos para afrontarlo mejor y recuperar su calidad de vida— constituyen una parte importante de las estrategias de abordaje.

      Metallic Mineral Resources: The Critical Components for a Sustainable Earth introduces the heterogeneous distribution of metal resources as well as the industrial use of metals. The main chapters then work systematically through abundant metal systems, scarce critical metal systems, rare critical metal systems, trace critical metal systems, and precious metal systems. The book wraps with a close examination of temporal distribution of mineral resources and an insightful discussion of the future of mineral resources. Researchers and engineers in economic geology and mining and exploration industries will find themselves returning to this key reference for years to come."The authors are world renown geoscientists who have a combined 120 years of successful international industry and award-winning academic experience which brings remarkable and diverse skill sets required for this very timely and highly relevant publication.Metallic Mineral Resources is meticulously edited and this review took much longer than normal due to the tremendous amount of information and research to be adsorbed and processed. Each chapter has logical format, excellent figures and tables allowing the reader to systematically follow the various themes and discussions. The book is unique in that a broad range of disciplines and geopolitics are drawn on to emphasize the current and future metal supply and demand issues. The authors have succeeded admirably in describing and highlighting in great detail, the critical components for a sustainable earth, at a time when these issues are now more relevant than ever before."

      In this issue of Gastrointestinal Endoscopy Clinics of North America, guest editors Drs. Violeta Popov and Shelby Sullivan bring their considerable expertise to the topic of Advances in Bariatric and Metabolic Endoscopy. Minimally invasive metabolic and bariatric endoscopic therapies can bridge the gap between surgical interventions and medical therapy, and recent advances have facilitated personalized and patient-targeted treatment options for specific disease states. In addition, these techniques can target different parts of the GI tract that may be responsible for the pathophysiology of obesity and metabolic syndromes. This issue provides state-of-the-art clinical reviews on the technical aspects of these procedures as well as patient management.
