We present radio polarimetry results for nine Southern pulsars. Six of the nine are young, with characteristic ages less than 100 kyr and high spin-down luminosities. All six show significant linear polarization, and we confirm a previously noticed trend in which the degree of linear polarization increases with spin-down luminosity. We have used the rotating vector model to fit the observed pos...

We performed a prospective screening for Trypanosoma cruzi infection in 1350 Latin American pregnant women and their offspring in Barcelona, Spain. The rate of seroprevalence was 3.4%, and 7.3% of the newborns were infected. Routine screening and management programs in maternity wards may be warranted.
