Los centros de intercambio de derechos al uso del agua constituyen uno de los instrumentos más novedosos de entre todos los recogidos en el TRLA que tienden a la redistribución de los recursos hídricos, con la finalidad de optimizar socialmente su uso. Precisamente por tal circunstancia se han convertido en uno de los retos del actual Derecho de aguas español al representar un medio útil que, en conjunción con otros instrumentos de gestión del Dominio Publico Hidráulico, permite afrontar la delicada situación hidrológica que desde hace años atraviesa nuestro país. A mayor abundamiento, el Real Decreto–Ley 9/2006, de 15 de septiembre, por el que se adoptaban medidas urgentes para paliar los efectos de la sequía en las poblaciones y explotaciones agrarias de regadío de determinadas cuencas hidrográficas reforzó la eficacia de estos centros de intercambio con la finalidad de que este instrumento sirviera para dar respuesta a objetivos medioambientales o de interés de la Comunidad Autónoma, línea que fue seguida por los posteriores decretos de sequía. En virtud del Acuerdo del Consejo de Ministros de 15 de octubre de 2004 se aprobó la constitución de los mencionados centros de intercambio en las cuencas del Segura, Júcar y Guadiana. Posteriormente, el 4 de abril de 2008, el Consejo de Ministros adoptó el acuerdo por el que se autorizaba la constitución de un centro de intercambio en la cuenca del Guadalquivir. En el presente trabajo se efectúa un estudio y seguimiento del funcionamiento de los centros de intercambio en las cuatro cuencas hidrográficas en que se han constituido que permita concretar el alcance de su efectividad como instrumento de redistribución y de optimización social de caudales, de reordenación de los aprovechamientos y de la racionalización de su utilización.

El presente trabajo efectúa un análisis de las comunidades de regantes españolas en su diseño legal actual a través del estudio de sus distintas clases, elementos integradores y de su régimen jurídico. De igual modo, se realiza una breve presentación del contrato de cesión de derechos al uso privativo de las aguas con la finalidad de desentrañar cuál es la utilización que aquéllas pueden efectuar del mismo.

14 p.-7 fig.-2 tab. ; Complement overactivation has been reported in most patients with Barraquer–Simons syndrome (BSS), a rare form of acquired partial lipodystrophy. Complement Factor D (FD) is a serine protease with a crucial role in the activation of the alternative pathway of the complement system, which is mainly synthesized by adipose tissue. However, its role in the pathogenesis of BSS has not been addressed. In this study, plasma FD concentration was measured in 13 patients with BSS, 20 patients with acquired generalized lipodystrophy, 22 patients with C3 glomerulopathy (C3G), and 50 healthy controls. Gene expression and immunohistochemistry studies were assayed using atrophied adipose tissue from a patient with BSS. We found significantly elevated FD levels in BSS cases compared with the remaining cohorts (p < 0.001). There were no significant differences in FD levels between sexes but FD was strongly and directly associated with age in BSS (r = 0.7593, p = 0.0036). A positive correlation between FD and C3 was seen in patients with C3G, characterized by decreased FD levels due to chronic C3 consumption, but no correlation was detected for BSS. Following mRNA quantification in the patient's adipose tissue, we observed decreased CFD and C3 but elevated C5 transcript levels. In contrast, the increased FD staining detected in the atrophied areas reflects the effects of persistent tissue damage on the adipose tissue, thus providing information on the ongoing pathogenic process. Our results suggest that FD could be a reliable diagnostic biomarker involved in the pathophysiology of BSS by promoting unrestrained local complement system activation in the adipose tissue environment. ; This study was funded by the Spanish Instituto de Salud Carlos III (ISCIII) and the European Regional Development Fund from the European Union (grant PI15-00255), by the Spanish Autonomous Region of Madrid (Complement II-CM network; S2017/BMD-3673), by the Asociación Española de Familiares y Afectados de Lipodistrofias (AELIP), by an intramural grant from the Xunta de Galicia (grant number ED431B 2020/37), and by the intramural research program of the National Institute of Diabetes and Digestive and Kidney Diseases. ; Peer reviewed
