ABSTRACT

Abstract Introduction: The red starfish (Echinaster sepositus) is one of the most common asteroid species in the Mediterranean Sea. However, information about their biology or their role in benthic communities is scarce. Objective: This study aims to provide new information on the ecology of this species through the temporal characterization of the population of E. sepositus in Cala del Racó (Alicante, Spain) and the in situ monitoring of its reproductive cycle. Methods: For this purpose, three study areas were established at different depths. For each of the recorded starfish, data about the size, the substrate on which it was found, the area, the depth and the sex in the case of observing the reproduction were collected. Results: A total of 19 samplings have been carried out throughout a year of study. In this way, it has been possible to observe that the density of individuals increases in the shallower zone during autumn and winter, when the temperature drops to 14.13 ºC, while it decreases in spring and summer when the temperature rises to 27.17 ºC. Those results are reversed in the deepest part of the study. The highest density of individuals (0.51 ind/m2) occurred in October. Arborescent photophilic algae and crustose coralline algae were the substrates with the highest number of E. sepositus recorded. Medium to large specimens are located preferably on crustose coralline algae or arborescent photophilic algae, while smaller individuals were mostly located on Posidonia oceanica. No specimens of E. sepositus were observed spawning. Conclusions: Data leads to assume that there is a migration of starfishes towards more superficial areas when the water is at colder temperature and towards deeper areas when the temperature increases. It is valued the possibility that there is a change in the nutritional needs of E. sepositus throughout its development. According to our observations, the future reproduction studies should be concentrated between late-summer and early-autumn.


Resumen Introducción: La estrella de mar roja (Echinaster sepositus) es una de las especies de asteroideos más comunes del mar Mediterráneo. Sin embargo, la información sobre su biología o su papel en las comunidades bentónicas es escasa. Objetivo: Este estudio pretende aportar nueva información sobre la ecología de esta especie mediante la caracterización temporal de la población de E. sepositus en la Cala del Racó (Alicante, España) y el monitoreo in situ de su ciclo reproductivo. Métodos: Con este fin se establecieron tres zonas de estudio a distintas profundidades. Para cada una de las estrellas registradas se tomaron datos de tamaño, el sustrato sobre el que se encuentra, la zona, la profundidad y el sexo en caso de observar la reproducción. Resultados: A lo largo de un año de estudio se han realizado un total de 19 muestreos. De esta forma se ha podido observar que la densidad de individuos aumenta en la zona menos profunda durante otoño e invierno, cuando la temperatura del agua baja hasta los 14.13 ºC, mientras que se reduce en primavera y verano, cuando la temperatura se eleva hasta los 27.17 ºC. Este resultado se invierte en la zona más profunda del estudio. La mayor densidad de individuos ha sido observada en octubre (0.51 ind/m2). Las algas fotófilas arborescentes y las algas coralinales costrosas han sido los sustratos con un mayor número de E. sepositus registrados. Los ejemplares de tamaños medianos a grandes se localizan preferentemente sobre algas coralinales costrosas o algas fotófilas arborescentes, mientras que los individuos de menor tamaño se sitúan mayormente sobre Posidonia oceanica. No se observaron ejemplares de E. sepositus reproduciéndose. Conclusiones: Los datos permiten presuponer que existe una migración entre las zonas más superficiales, cuando la temperatura del agua es menor, y zonas más profundas cuando la temperatura aumenta. Se valora la posibilidad de la existencia de un cambio en los requerimientos nutricionales de E. sepositus a lo largo de su desarrollo. De acuerdo con nuestras observaciones, los estudios futuros sobre la reproducción de esta especie deben concentrarse entre finales de verano y principios de otoño.

ABSTRACT

En la Guerra Civil Española participaron médicos cubanos que integraron la sanidad militar de las fuerzas republicanas; un tema que ha suscitado diversos estudios, pero del que quedan aún aspectos por investigar. El presente trabajo se enfoca en un médico cubano que participó en la gesta internacionalista en España, el doctor Eduardo Odio Pérez. Nació en Santiago de Cuba y se graduó de médico en los EE. UU. El objetivo es contribuir al conocimiento de los médicos cubanos que participaron en la lucha contra el fascismo en España. Los resultados hacen referencia a su participación como integrante de la sanidad militar de la XV Brigada Internacional Abraham Lincoln. Prestó servicios en hospitales militares, donde se atendieron las bajas sanitarias de importantes acciones combativas del conflicto armado, como la batalla del Jarama. Alcanzó el grado de capitán y solicitó el ingreso al Partido Comunista Español. Su contribución a la lucha contra el fascismo en España es una muestra de internacionalismo y un modelo referencial para el trabajo educativo en la formación médica.

ABSTRACT

Introducción: el objeto del estudio es la población de Jerez de los Caballeros (Badajoz). Debido a la implantación del Servicio Militar obligatorio en España, el reclutamiento se efectuaba basándose en los censos de los Ayuntamientos, eligiendo a una quinta parte de los mozos sorteables. Objetivo: exponer las causas de exención por parte de los quintos para no realizar el Servicio Militar, durante el siglo XIX. Material y métodos: la investigación en el Archivo Histórico Municipal de Jerez de los Caballeros, así como en publicaciones actuales y de la época, refiriendo las patologías médicas esgrimidas según la Clasificación Internacional de Enfermedades de Jacques Bertillon. Resultados: los mozos utilizaban toda clase de argumentos, entre ellos patologías médicas, reales o no, para eludir el Servicio Militar, el cual era muy cuestionado en la época, y que suponía muchas veces una sentencia de muerte para el quinto, debido a los frecuentes conflictos militares en los que estuvo envuelta España durante el siglo XIX. Discusión: el sorteo se efectuaba mediante unos bombos de manera pública, pero se podía evitar la realización del Servicio Militar, mediante el pago de una cantidad, o sustituciones, lo que suponía una gran discriminación. Conclusiones: a consecuencia del descontento popular que suponía el Servicio Militar obligatorio, los mozos seleccionados esgrimían toda clase de excusas para eludir su realización, circunstancia que fue aumentado con el correr de los años, y por consecuencia también la cantidad de quintos que lo lograban.


Introduction: the object of the study is the population of Jerez de los Caballeros (Badajoz). Due to the implementation of the obligatory Military Service in Spain, the recruitment was carried out based on the census of the City Councils, choosing a fifth part of the drawable young men. Objective: to expose the causes of exemption on the part of the fifth for not performing the Military Service, during the 19th century. Material and methods: research in the Municipal Historical Archive of Jerez de los Caballeros, as well as in current and period publications, referring to the medical pathologies used according to Jacques Bertillon's International Classification of Diseases. Results: the young men used all kinds of arguments, among them medical pathologies, real or not, to avoid the Military Service, which was very questioned at the time, and which was often a death sentence for the fifth, due to the frequent military conflicts in which Spain was involved during the 19th century. Discussion: the lottery was carried out by means of a public drawing of lots, but the Military Service could be avoided by paying an amount, or substitutions, which meant a great discrimination. Conclusions: as a consequence of the popular dissatisfaction with the compulsory military service, the selected young men used all kinds of excuses to avoid performing it, a circumstance that increased over the years, and as a consequence, so did the number of young men who did so.

ABSTRACT

Abstract Background There is a large literature on the significant impact of rearing factors in the psychological development of different child's learning patterns and wellbeing in elementary and secondary schools, but there is a scarcity of studies on to what extent those influences remain stable up to higher education. Objective In this study, parenting practices and family status were analyzed as predictors of the different learning styles, psychological difficulties, mental health factors, and academic performance, comprising the psychosocial diversity in learning (DinL) at the university classroom. Methods Using a cross-sectional design, a questionnaire was administered to a sample of 2522 students at the Complutense University of Madrid (Spain). It included a DinL scale measuring five psychological learning dimensions (coping with difficulties, effort, autonomy, Social/Physical Context, and understanding/career interest), plus several items on retrospective parenting practices, family, and sociodemographic variables. Multiple regressions and analyses of variance were conducted with the family factors as independent variables and the learning factors as dependent variables. Results Results showed parenting variables, parents' education, and family economy as having a significant impact on psychological learning dimensions, academic performance, and especially on the students' wellbeing and mental health status, being an important contributors to explain the DinL in the university classroom. Conclusion The results bring interesting conclusions for developmental and health psychologists when working with parents aimed at fostering wellbeing and learning strategies related to academic inclusion and achievement.

ABSTRACT

Abstract Background Violent behaviors in romantic relationships among adolescents and young people are pressing social matter as they have an effect on both victims and aggressors. Moreover, in the last decades, new forms of harassment, control, and abuse through social networks and mobile phones have arisen. Therefore, now forms of online and offline dating violence coexist. Objectives The aim was to analyze the prevalence rates by sex and age and the co-occurrence of online and offline dating violence. Moreover, the roles of online and offline dating violence aggressors and victims for their self-esteem, hostility, general psychological state, and emotional intelligence were investigated. Method Three hundred forty-one university students from the Basque Country, Spain, participated in the study. They completed six validated instruments related to the mentioned variables. Results Results highlight the high prevalence of online and offline dating violence in the sample and the co-occurrence of both types. No gender nor sex differences were found for online and offline dating violence perpetration and victimization. The correlation between online and offline dating violence was confirmed, and the reciprocity of violence is greater for offline violence. In relation to the role, both types of victims (online and offline) showed higher levels of hostility and psychological symptomatology than non-victims, but differences in self-esteem and emotional regulation were found in these modalities. Online and offline perpetrators shared hostility and some psychological symptoms as characteristics compared to non-victims, but differed in other symptoms and emotional intelligence. Conclusion There is a continuum between offline and online victimization perpetration albeit differences in the characteristics such as self-esteem, emotional intelligence, and general functioning exist.

ABSTRACT

Resumen Estudiar y reflexionar sobre la enfermedad es poner de relieve las formas de ver y decir acerca de lo que puede un cuerpo y su potencia de ser afectado ante las huellas o vestigios que lo degradan. Este artículo expone los soportes epistemológicos de una investigación sobre las representaciones sociales (en la que se inscribe el saber médico) de la enfermedad desde el registro de la dermatología clínica durante la segunda mitad del siglo XIX. Para esto, se recurrió a un análisis de fotografías médicas conservada en archivos de Colombia y España y como horizonte discursivo las formas de ver y decir la enfermedad que tiene efectos deformantes en el cuerpo.


Abstract To study about and reflect on the disease is to highlight the ways of seeing and saying what can a body and its power to be affected before fingerprints or traces that degrade it. This article exposes epistemological research on social representations brackets (where register know doctor) disease from the registry of Clinical Dermatology in the second half of the 19th century. This is resorted to an analysis of medical photographs preserved in archives of Colombia and Spain taking as discursive forms of seeing and saying the disease who have disfiguring effects in the body.

ABSTRACT

Resumen: Introducción: El interés por el ciclismo urbano está aumentando y el número de programas de bicicletas compartidas ha crecido rápidamente durante los últimos años. Por ello, el objetivo que se pretende alcanzar en este estudio es saber si los factores como las estaciones, los trayectos y las altitudes afectan el uso del sistema compartido de bicicletas en un municipio español. Método: Se ha diseñado un estudio cuantitativo y longitudinal con recogida y análisis de datos del BSS de Vilagarcía de Arousa, que registra un total de 84 183 observaciones (hombres n = 59 159; mujeres n = 25 024). Los datos extraídos del sistema fueron recolectados y analizados estadísticamente, a través del programa IBM SPSS versión 21.0. Se ha establecido un valor de significación p < 0,05. Resultados: La estación más utilizada fue la que se sitúa en el centro de la ciudad y representa un total del 39 % de las observaciones. La elevación neutra, es decir, salir de una estación y depositar la bicicleta en otra con la misma altitud, representó el 65,5 % de los registros totales. Conclusiones: El municipio de Vilagarcía de Arousa reúne unas características topográficas favorables para ser un servicio rentable que fomente unos hábitos saludables, como un medio de transporte activo de desplazamiento en el entorno urbano, una mejora de la movilidad urbana y un entorno menos contaminado.

ABSTRACT

Resumen: Introducción: La enfermedad de Parkinson (EP) es un trastorno neurológico y progresivo caracterizado por síntomas motores y no motores que influyen en el deterioro de la calidad de vida. Objetivo: Esta investigación tiene como objetivo analizar los efectos de un programa de intervención multicomponente basado en la actividad física y el deporte en la funcionalidad de personas con EP, tanto con alta como con baja afectación. Metodología: Para ello, 16 personas (13 hombres y 3 mujeres) con EP participaron en este estudio, dividiéndose en 2 grupos según su nivel de afectación, el de baja (GBA, n = 12) y el de alta (GAA, n = 4). Se realizó una intervención de un programa de ejercicio físico multicomponente a todos los participantes durante 4 semanas (2 sesiones de 50 minutos, por semana). Se realizó una batería de test funcionales (Six minutes walk test (6MWT); Single-leg Stance test (SLS); Time Up and Go (TUG) y The five times sitto-stand Chair (FTSTS)) una semana antes (T1) y una semana después de la intervención (T2). Resultados: El total de la muestra mejoró significativamente en el test SLS (P < 0.05; d > 0.56, moderado). Sin embargo, analizando cada grupo, de conformidad con su nivel de afectación, el grupo GBA obtuvo mejoras significativas en SLS y 5STS (d= 0.44 - 0.68, p < 0.05), mientras que no se observaron diferencias significativas en el grupo GAA en ninguna variable analizada. Conclusiones: Los resultados del presente estudio muestran la necesidad de realizar más estudios con programas de larga duración y más frecuencia semanal.


Abstract: Introduction: Parkinson's disease (PD) is a progressive neurological disorder characterized by motor and non-motor symptoms that influence the impairment of quality of life. Objective: This research aims to analyze the effects of a multicomponent intervention program based on physical exercise and sport on the physiological functions of people with PD, both with high and low impairment. Methodology: For this purpose, sixteen people (13 men and 3 women) with PD participated in this study, divided into two groups according to their level of impairment, low (GBA, n = 12) and high (GAA, n = 4). A multicomponent physical exercise program intervention was administered to all participants for 4 weeks (2 sessions of 50 minutes per week). A battery of functional tests (Six minutes walk test (6MWT); Single-leg Stance test (SLS); Time Up and Go (TUG) and The five times sit-to-stand Chair (FTSTS)) was performed one week before (T1) and one week after the intervention (T2). Results: The total sample improved significantly on the SLS test (P < 0.05; d > 0.56, moderate). However, analyzing each group according to their level of impairment, the GBA group obtained significant improvements in SLS and 5STS (d= 0.44 - 0.68, P < 0.05), while no significant differences were observed in the GAA group in any of the variables analyzed. Conclusion: The results of the present study show the need for further studies with longer duration and more frequent weekly programs.

ABSTRACT

Objectives: To assess the risk of bias (RoB) of randomized controlled trials (RCTs) published in dental journals in the Spanish language. Methods: A systematic retrospective survey was conducted of all RCTs published from 1980 to 2019 in dentistry Spanish and Latin American journals. We extracted data and performed RoB assessments using the Cochrane Risk of Bias tool. Results: 292 RCTs published in 51 journals were included. The best-rated domains were incomplete outcome data, selective reporting, and other biases. The domains assessed with higher proportions of an unclear or high risk of bias were sequence generation, allocation concealment, and blinding of outcome assessment. There is a low proportion of RCTs published in Spanish language journals. However, the number has been increasing over the years, and the low risk of bias assessment rates across domains show an increasing trend. Conclusions: A low percentage of Spanish-language dental journals issue RCTs. Our assessment of these RCTs' RoB suggests higher difficulties in the design and conduction phase than in the posterior reporting stage.

ABSTRACT

INTRODUCCIÓN: La infección y resistencia antimicrobiana de Mycoplasma genitalium está infradiagnósticada en nuestra comunidad ya que no es una Enfermedad de Declaración Obligatoria y requiere técnicas de biología molecular, no siempre disponibles. OBJETIVO: Estudiar la epidemiología y prevalencia de M. genitalium y la tasa de resistencia frente a azitromicina en nuestra Área de Salud. MÉTODOS: Estudio retrospectivo, desde abril de 2019 a julio de 2020, realizado en el Área de Salud del Norte de Tenerife, la cual atiende el Hospital Universitario Canarias. Para el diagnóstico de las infecciones de transmisión sexual (ITS) se utilizó la RT-PCR Allplex™ STI Essential Assay (Seegene, South Korea). Las muestras en las que se detectó M. genitalium fueron congeladas a −80°C para posteriormente realizar estudio de resistencia a azitromicina con la RT-PCR Allplex™ MG y AziR Assay (Seegene, South Korea). RESULTADOS: Se identificaron 111/3.849 (prevalencia de 2,8%) pacientes con M. genitalium, de los cuales la mayoría, 59(53,1%) eran hombres con una mediana de 32 años (15-74) y cuyas muestras procedían principalmente de Atención Primaria: 55 (49,5%). Para la detección de resistencia a azitromicina, de los 111 pacientes solo se pudo analizar las muestras de 79, detectándose resistencia in vitro en 15(18,3%): 10 con A2059G, 4 con A2058G y 1 con ambas. La resistencia a azitromicina fue más frecuente en hombres 12 (15,8%). DISCUSIÓN Y CONCLUSIONES: Con este estudio se pone de manifiesto la importancia de la prevalencia de M. genitalium en nuestro entorno, así como su alta tasa de resistencia a azitromicina por lo que se hace necesario vigilar dicha resistencia en nuestro Área de Salud para su adecuado tratamiento.


BACKGROUND: Infection and antimicrobial resistance of Mycoplasma genitalium is under-diagnosed in our community as it is not a Notifiable Infectious Disease and requires for its detection molecular biology techniques, which are not always available. AIM: To study the epidemiology and prevalence of M. genitalium and the rate of resistance to azithromycin in our Health Care Area. METHODS: We conducted a retrospective study from April 2019 to July 2020 in the Northern Health Care Area of Tenerife, which is attended to the Universitary Hospital Complex of the Canary Islands. The RT-PCR Allplex™ STI Essential Assay (Seegene, South Korea) to diagnose Sexually Transmitted Infections (STI) was used. Samples in which M. genitalium was detected were stored at −80°C for subsequent diagnosis of resistance to azithromycin with the RT-PCR Allplex™ MG and AziR Assay (Seegene, South Korea). RESULTS: Of a total of 111/3,849 (2.8% prevalence) patients diagnosed with M. genitalium, 59 (53.1%) were male with a mean age of 30 (19-61) years and mainly from Primary Care 55 (49.5%). Only 79 samples of the 111 patients could be tested to detect azithromycin resistance, of which 15 (18.3%) were resistant in vitro: 10 with A2059G, 4 with A2058G and 1 with both. Azithromycin resistance was more frequent in men 12 (15.8%) and detected mainly in urine samples 6 (60%). Discussion and CONCLUSIONS: This study highlights the prevalence of M. genitalium in our setting as well as the high rate of resistance to azithromycin, making it necessary to detect resistance to azithromycin in M. genitalium for its appropriate treatment in our Health Care Area.

ABSTRACT

To determine the diuretic activity of Sambucus nigra L. ssp. palmensis (Link) R. Bolli (SP). SP was evaluated in adult female Swiss mice. Urinary excretion volume was measured and the concentration of sodium, potassium, chloride, pH and specific conductance of 3 doses of aqueous extract (35.0, 52.2 and 70.0 mg kg-1) were determined. SP (70.0 mg kg-1) produced a higher urinary excretion (6.41 mL) and diuretic index (15%) than hydrochlorothiazide (HCTZ) (6.27 mL and 12%, respectively). The saluretic index indicates a lower sodium excretion than HCTZ (13%) and inversely proportional to the dose (8% -5%). The same is observed for potassium excretion (0.0172-0.0162 mEq.K+/100 g/6 h), which achieves a lower value than the control group (0.0166 mEq.K+/100 g/6 h), suggesting potassium retention. These results support the use of this plant species as a diuretic in Canarian folk medicine.


Determinar la actividad diurética de Sambucus nigra L. ssp. palmensis (Link) R. Bolli (SP). SP fue evaluada en hembras adultas de ratones Swiss. Se midió el volumen de excreción urinaria y se determinó la concentración de sodio, potasio, cloruro, el pH y la conductividad específica de 3 dosis de extracto acuoso (35,0, 52,2 y 70,0 mg kg-1). SP (70,0 mg kg-1) produjo una excreción urinaria (6,41 mL) e índice diurético (15%) superior a hidroclorotiazida (HCTZ) (6,27 mLy 12%, respectivamente). El índice salurético indica una excreción de sodio inferior a HCTZ (13%) e inversamente proporcional a la dosis (8% -5%). Lo mismo ocurre con la excreción de potasio (0,0172-0,0162 mEq.K+/100 g/6 h) que alcanza un dato inferior al del grupo control (0,0166 mEq.K+/100 g/6 h), lo que sugeriría retención de potasio. Estos resultados apoyan el uso de esta especie vegetal como diurético por la medicina popular canaria.

ABSTRACT

Introducción. Las drogas producen importantes consecuencias negativas en las sociedades. La prevalencia de su consumo sigue aumentando debido a que existen diversos motivos que acercan a las personas a consumirlas. Objetivo. Identificar las diferencias en la frecuencia y cantidad del consumo de tabaco, alcohol y cannabis durante y después del confinamiento por la pandemia de COVID-19; así como la influencia del confinamiento en los motivos y los riesgos de desarrollar un consumo problemático. Metodología. Estudio transversal analítico con muestreo no probabilístico en dos momentos. Participaron 520 jóvenes: 246 estudiantes de bachillerato y universidad en el año 2020, durante el confinamiento y 274, en 2022. Se evaluaron datos sociodemográficos, motivos de consumo y consumo problemático. Resultados. El consumo de cannabis durante el confinamiento (41,1 %) fue mayor que en el posconfinamiento (29,6 %; p 0,006). Hubo diferencias entre los grupos de consumo problemático de tabaco durante el confinamiento y los motivos sociales (W 8,178, p 0,017) y de afrontamiento (W 26,456, p < 0,001); también, entre los grupos de consumo problemático de alcohol y los motivos sociales (W 6865,5, p < 0,001); de animación (W 6768,0, p < 0,001); de afrontamiento (W 6176,0, p = 0,002) y de expansión (W 6774,0, p < 0,001). Entre los motivos del consumo problemático de cannabis se destacan los sociales (W 6,404, p 0,041); de animación (W 9,409, p 0,009); de afrontamiento (W 9,265, p 0,010) y de expansión (W 27,692, p < 0,001). Conclusión. El confinamiento incrementó el riesgo de consumir tabaco y cannabis. Los motivos de consumo también aumentaron, excepto las asociadas al consumo de alcohol en universitarios. El consumo problemático de tabaco estuvo motivado por necesidades sociales y de afrontamiento; el de alcohol y cannabis, por necesidades sociales, de animación, de afrontamiento y de expansión


Introduction. Drugs produce significant negative consequences in societies. The prevalence of drug use continues to increase because various reasons lead people to use them. Objective. Identify differences in the frequency and amount of tobacco, alcohol, and cannabis use during and after COVID-19 pandemic confinement, the influence of confinement on motives, and risks for developing problematic use. Methodology. Analytical cross-sectional study with non-probabilistic sampling at two points in time. Five hundred and twenty young people participated: 246 high school and university students during the confinement in 2020, and 274 in 2022. Sociodemographic data, reasons for consumption, and problematic consumption were evaluated. Results. Cannabis use during confinement (41.1 %) was higher than post-confinement (29.6 %; p 0.006). There were differences between the groups of problematic tobacco use during confinement and the social (W 8.178, p 0.017), and coping (W 26.456, p < 0.001) motives; also, between the groups of problematic alcohol consumption and social motives (W 6865.5, p < 0.001); encouragement (W 6768.0, p < 0.001); coping (W 6176.0, p = 0.002) and expansion (W 6774.0, p < 0.001). Among the motives for problematic cannabis use, social (W 6.404, p 0.041); animation (W 9.409, p 0.009); coping (W 9.265, p 0.010), and expansion (W 27.692, p < 0.001) were highlighted. Conclusion.Confinement increased the risk of tobacco and cannabis use. Motives for use also increased, except those associated with alcohol use in university students. Problem tobacco use was motivated by social and coping needs; alcohol and cannabis use was motivated by social, entertainment, coping and expansion needs

ABSTRACT

Las restricciones por la pandemia del COVID-19 supusieron la transición abrupta a una enseñanza online tanto del contenido teórico como práctico y de la evaluación final de las asignaturas que imparte el departamento en varias titulaciones. En previsión de que el siguiente curso académico 2020-21 se vería totalmente afectado, se desarrollaron una serie de materiales didácticos propios, como la elaboración de guiones de teoría y práctica que incorporaron imágenes de modelos anatómicos, prosecciones, anatomía radiológica y anatomía ecográfica. La percepción de esta innovación fue evaluada por los estudiantes a través de una encuesta en línea y sus respuestas mediante una escala tipo Likert. Participaron 346 estudiantes de las titulaciones de Fisioterapia (n= 66), Medicina (n= 169), Podología (n= 44) y Terapia Ocupacional (n= 67). Las puntuaciones medias más altas correspondieron a los estudiantes de Podología y Terapia Ocupacional, ambas presentaron diferencias significativas con los otros tres subgrupos de alumnos (p<.0001). El puntaje promedio más bajo correspondió a los estudiantes de Medicina de segundo año académico que presentó significancia con los otros cuatro subgrupos de estudiantes (p<.0001). Se analizaron las carencias del sistema educativo en la Universidad Complutense de Madrid reveladas por la pandemia del Covid19. Esta crisis ha puesto de manifiesto la necesidad de que los educadores médicos en general y los anatomistas en particular estén capacitados en el uso de la tecnología disponible y en la creación de sus propios materiales didácticos multimedia.


SUMMARY: Restrictions due to COVID-19 pandemic meant an abrupt transition to online teaching. This change affected teaching, practical sessions and assessments of the subjects taught by the department in various degrees. In anticipation that the following academic year 2020-21 would be totally affected, a series of didactic materials were therefor developed. These materials included the preparation of theory and practice scripts that incorporated images of anatomical models, pro-sections, radiological anatomy, and ultrasound anatomy. Perceptions by the students of these innovations were recorded through an online survey and their responses evaluated through a Likert-type scale. 346 students from Physiotherapy (n= 66), Medicine (n= 169), Podiatry (n= 44) and Occupational Therapy (n= 67) degrees participated. The highest average scores corresponded to the students of Podiatry and Occupational Therapy, both presented significant differences with the other three subgroups of students (p<.0001). The lowest average score corresponded to medical students in their second academic year, which presented significance with the other four subgroups of students (p<.0001). The shortcomings of the educational system of the Complutense University of Madrid that were highlighted by the COVID-19 pandemic were analyzed. This crisis underscored the need for medical educators in general, and anatomists in particular, to be trained in the use of available technology and to produce their own multimedia teaching materials.

Objetivo: el objetivo del estudio fue analizar el proceso de enseñanza-aprendizaje de un entrenador de baloncesto en edad escolar, así como conocer la asociación de la Situación de Juego y las variables pedagógicas, de carga externa y organizativa empleadas que influyen en el diseño de las tareas. Método: para ello, se analizaron un total de 20 sesiones de entrenamiento formadas por 100 tareas, registradas a través del Sistema integral para el análisis de las tareas de entrenamiento. Se realizó un análisis descriptivo e inferencial entre las variables planteadas en la investigación con relación a la Situación de Juego. Resultados: los resultados demostraron la relación significativa de las variables analizadas con la Situación de Juego. La forma de agrupar los jugadores durante el desarrollo de las tareas de entrenamiento condiciona los resultados del resto de las variables que definen una tarea de entrenamiento, tanto en el nivel pedagógico, organizativo, como de carga externa. Conclusión: estas evidencias revindican la importancia de conocer los factores que influyen en las tareas de entrenamiento. Además, los resultados muestran que existen diferencias en el empleo de las Situaciones de Juego en función del resto de variables empleadas.


Abstract: Introduction: Currently, Knowledge of training is essential to optimize player training. Therefore, one of the strategies most used by coaches to optimize the training process is to modify the number of players (Game Situation). Purpose: The objective of the study was to analyze the teaching-learning process of a school-age basketball coach, as well as to know the association of the Game Situation and the Pedagogical, External Load and Organizational variables used that influence the design of the tasks. Method: For this, a total of 20 training sessions consisting of 100 tasks, recorded through the Comprehensive System for the Analysis of Training Tasks, were analyzed. A descriptive and inferential analysis was carried out between the variables raised in the research in relation to the Game Situation. Results: The results demonstrated the significant relationship of the variables analyzed with the Game Situation. The way the players are grouped during the development of the training tasks conditions the results of the rest of the variables that define a training task, both at a pedagogical, organizational, and external load level. Conclusion: These evidences vindicate the importance of knowing the factors that influence training tasks. In addition, the results show that there are differences in the use of Game Situations depending on the rest of the variables used.

ABSTRACT

Background: Confidence in the results reported by randomized clinical trials (RCTs) depends mainly on the internal validity of the trial and its conduct, but also on other aspects related to health research such as the complete reporting of conflicts of interest (COI), funding sources and approval by ethics committees. Bias in the study results may arise from any one of these elements. Prior studies have explored the reporting of these items in the medical literature, but there are no reports on RCTs published in Spanish and Latin American journals. This study aimed to evaluate the reporting of COIs, funding sources, and approval by ethics committees of RCTs published in Spanish and Latin American journals in dentistry, geriatrics and neurology. Methods: We did a systematic retrospective survey of all RCTs published from 1990 to 2018 in dentistry, neurology, and geriatrics journals published in Spain and Latin America and included in the BADERI database (Iberoamerican journals and trials database by its initials in Spanish). We completed with hand searching. We included RCTs with a recoverable full text published between 1990 and 2018. We extracted data on sources of funding, COI statements, and ethics reviews. The extraction of these items in the RCTs included was done independently by two pairs of reviewers and in parallel for each article, with a third independent reviewer resolving discrepancies. We analysed compliance for each item. Results: We identified RCTs in 69 journals from Spain and Latin American countries. Dentistry accounted for 75% (n = 52) of the journals, neurology 20.6% (n = 14), and geriatrics 4.4% (n = 3). Of the total number of RCTs included in this study (n = 392), only 102 (26%) reported the presence or absence of a COI, 103 (26%) studies reported funding, and 43 (36%) included the ethics committee approval. Conclusions: RCTs published in the Spanish language in dentistry, neurology, and geriatrics had poor compliance with the reporting of a COI, source of funding, and ethics committee approval. Future research should evaluate the accuracy and completeness of COI statements and their relationship to the funding source and direction of the results.

ABSTRACT

Las fisuras orofaciales representan un grupo heterogéneo de malformaciones congénitas que afectan a distintas estructuras de la cavidad oral y de la cara. Globalmente, los bebés con estos trastornos presentan una mayor morbilidad y mortalidad a lo largo de su vida en comparación con individuos no afectados. Por ello, los avances en la investigación biomédica resultan ineludibles. Así, el objetivo general de este trabajo fue llevar a cabo una revisión bibliográfica para analizar narrativamente los 10 principales estudios primarios sobre fisuras orofaciales llevados a cabo en España, publicados del 2018 hasta la actualidad. Según esto, a nivel institucional, destaca la Universidad Complutense de Madrid (UCM) con cuatro artículos publicados por el grupo de investigación UCM 920202. También sobresale la Universidad Rey Juan Carlos de Madrid, con tres artículos relacionados con diferentes aspectos de la personalidad y la calidad de vida de los pacientes fisurados, así como otras muchas variables cognitivo-emocionales. En relación con la Universidad de Valencia, encontramos dos artículos llevados a cabo en amplias muestras de pacientes con fisuras. Por último, en Barcelona resulta destacable un estudio observacional sobre problemas otorrinolaringológicos en pacientes operados de fisura palatina. En conclusión, si bien en los últimos años se han publicado varios artículos sobre distintos aspectos relacionados con las fisuras, aún queda mucho trabajo por hacer. España debería seguir potenciando proyectos con líneas de trabajo centradas en estas alteraciones del desarrollo craneofacial. Se necesitan estudios amplios, multicéntricos y colaborativos, para ahondar en los mecanismos etiológicos y, en última instancia, en las posibles herramientas para su prevención. Del mismo modo, se necesitan ayudas para dilucidar mejor las cuestiones relacionadas con los tratamientos en todas las dimensiones de la salud, preferentemente a partir de ensayos clínicos controlados aleatorizados, que faciliten la traslación de conocimientos y su accesibilidad universal dentro del sistema sanitario público español.


SUMMARY: Orofacial clefts represent a heterogeneous group of congenital malformations affecting different structures of the oral cavity and face. Overall, infants with these disorders have a higher lifetime morbidity and mortality compared to unaffected individuals. Therefore, advances in biomedical research are unavoidable. Thus, the overall objective of this work was to conduct a literature review to narratively analyse the 10 main primary studies on orofacial clefts carried out in Spain, published from 2018 to date. According to this review, at an institutional level, the Complutense University of Madrid (UCM) is notable with 4 articles published by the UCM 920202 research group. The Rey Juan Carlos University of Madrid also stands out, with three papers related to different aspects of the personality and quality of life of cleft patients, as well as many other cognitive-emotional variables. In relation to the University of Valencia, we found two studies carried out on large samples of cleft patients. Finally, in Barcelona, an observational study on otorhinolaryngological problems in cleft palate patients is noteworthy. In conclusion, although several studies have been published in recent years on different aspects related to clefts, there is still much work to be done. Spain should craniofacial development. Large, multicenter and collaborative studies are needed to delve deeper into the aetiological mechanisms and, ultimately, into the possible tools for their prevention. Similarly, support is needed to better elucidate questions related to treatments in all dimensions of health, preferably randomised controlled clinical trials, which facilitate the transfer of knowledge and its universal accessibility within the Spanish public health system.

ABSTRACT

Introducción: El confinamiento derivado de la situación sanitaria a finales del primer trimestre de 2020 en España obligó a que la segunda parte del curso 2019-2020 de todos los niveles educativos pasara a formato online de una manera forzada e imprevista. Objetivo: Identificar el impacto de la docencia online en el rendimiento académico de los estudiantes de medicina en el curso 2019-2020. Métodos: El estudio fue de tipo transversal y utilizó datos públicos anonimizados sobre rendimiento académico de estudiantes de medicina en universidades españolas. A partir de la información pública de los sistemas de garantía interna de calidad de estas universidades, se analizaron los valores medios de las tasas de rendimiento y éxito de los cuatro cursos comprendidos entre 2015 y 2019 en 17 universidades españolas. Estos se compararon mediante una prueba t de Student con los obtenidos en el curso 2019-2020. Resultados: Las tasas de rendimiento y éxito fueron superiores en el curso 2019-2020 en comparación con la media de los cuatro cursos anteriores. Conclusiones: La situación de confinamiento y de cambio forzado a docencia online parece haber producido una mejora en el ya de por sí elevado rendimiento académico de los estudiantes de medicina, lo que sugiere niveles elevados de resiliencia y una buena capacidad de adaptación a una situación adversa como la experimentada en la segunda parte del curso 2019-2020 (AU)


Introduction: The lockdown derived from the health situation at the end of the first quarter of 2020 in Spain forced the second part of the 2019-2020 academic course of all educational levels to be move to the online modality in a compulsory and unforeseen way. Objective: To identify the impact of online teaching on the academic performance of medical students in the 2019-2020 academic year. Methods: The study was cross-sectional and used anonymized public data on the academic performance of medical students in Spanish universities. Based on public information from the internal quality assurance systems of these universities, the mean values of performance and success rates were analyzed for the four academic years between 2015 and 2019 in seventeen Spanish universities. Using a Student's t test, these were compared with those obtained in the 2019-2020 academic year. Results: The performance and success rates were higher in the 2019-2020 academic year compared to the average of the four previous academic years. Conclusions: The situation of lockdown and forced change to online teaching seems to have produced an improvement in the already high academic performance of medical students, being this suggestive of high levels of resilience and a good capacity to adapt to an adverse situation such as the one experienced in the second part of the 2019-2020 academic year(AU)

ABSTRACT

Resumo O presente artigo compara os modelos e as desigualdades territoriais no financiamento de duas políticas sociais pilares do estado de bem-estar social e com alto grau de descentralização territorial na Espanha e no Brasil: educação e saúde. A análise utiliza bibliografia especializada, legislação nacional e documentos governamentais para descrever as políticas e seus mecanismos de financiamento. Dados fiscais são usados para apresentar os gastos e analisar as desigualdades dos governos subnacionais no financiamento da educação e da saúde nos dois países. A conclusão é que a experiência espanhola apresenta elevado nivelamento de gastos em saúde e educação nas comunidades autônomas do regime comum, com patamares menores de desigualdade que o observado nos estados e municípios brasileiros. O resultado espanhol é decorrente de um processo incremental de aperfeiçoamento do federalismo fiscal, que culminou em um modelo marcado pela priorização e solidariedade territorial no financiamento das políticas sociais. Esse modelo é uma referência para a análise e discussão do caso brasileiro, que configurou seu federalismo fiscal com pouca preocupação em conciliar eficiência e equidade na distribuição dos recursos entre os entes governamentais, mas apresentou avanços importantes em reformas no financiamento da educação e da saúde.

El análisis utiliza literatura especializada, legislación nacional y documentos gubernamentales para describir las políticas y sus mecanismos de financiación. Los datos fiscales se utilizan para analizar las desigualdades de los gobiernos subnacionales en la financiación de la educación y la sanidad en ambos países. La conclusión es que la experiencia española muestra una alta nivelación del gasto en salud y educación en las comunidades autónomas de régimen común, con niveles de desigualdad inferiores a los observados en los estados y municipios brasileños. El resultado español es fruto de un proceso de mejora y perfeccionamiento del federalismo fiscal que culminó en un modelo marcado por la priorización y la solidaridad territorial en la financiación de las políticas sociales. Este modelo es una referencia para el análisis y la discusión del caso brasileño, que ha configurado su federalismo fiscal con poca preocupación por conciliar la eficiencia y la equidad en la distribución de los recursos entre las entidades gubernamentales, pero que ha presentado importantes avances en las reformas de la financiación de la educación y la sanidad.


Abstract The article compares the patterns and territorial inequalities in the funding of two social policies that are pillars of the welfare state and present a high degree of territorial decentralization in Spain and Brazil: education and health. The analysis uses specialist literature, national legislation and government documents to describe the policies and their financing mechanisms. Fiscal data are used to analyze subnational government inequalities in the funding of education and health in both countries. The conclusion is that the Spanish experience has significantly leveled spending on health and education between the autonomous communities of common regime, with lower levels of inequality than those observed in Brazilian states and municipalities. The Spanish result derives from an incremental process of improvement of the country's fiscal federalism, which culminated in a model marked by prioritization and territorial solidarity in the funding of social policies. This model is reference for the analysis and discussion of the Brazilian case, which has configured its fiscal federalism with little concern for reconciling efficiency and equity in the distribution of resources between subnational governments, but which has presented important advances in the reforms of education and health funding.
