ABSTRACT

Introducción: existe evidencia creciente que relaciona la alimentación con la salud psicológica de la población adulta. Esta asociación no se ha explorado suficientemente entre los estudiantes universitarios. Objetivos: los objetivos de este estudio fueron analizar la calidad de la dieta en una población universitaria y cuantificar su asociación con la prevalencia de ansiedad, depresión, estrés e insomnio. Métodos: estudio descriptivo transversal sobre una muestra de 1055 estudiantes universitarios. Se utilizaron tres cuestionarios validados: el Índice de Alimentación Saludable (IAS), la escala breve de Depresión, Ansiedad y Estrés (DASS-21) y el Índice de Severidad del Insomnio. Resultados: la puntuación media del IAS fue de 68,57 ± 12,17. La prevalencia de la alimentación no saludable fue del 82,3%, mayor en las mujeres (84,8% vs. 76,4%). La alimentación no saludable se relacionó de forma significativa con la prevalencia de ansiedad, depresión y estrés. El consumo excesivo de dulces y el bajo de lácteos se asociaron a una mayor prevalencia de alteraciones psicológicas y del sueño. Conclusiones: los patrones alimentarios no saludables son comunes en la población universitaria y se relacionan con la presencia de ansiedad, estrés y depresión. Las intervenciones educativas dirigidas a disminuir el consumo de alimentos no saludables en estudiantes universitarios pueden conllevar una mejora de la salud psicológica y/o viceversa


Introduction: there is growing evidence linking food consumption with psychological health in adult people. This association has not been well explored among university students. Objectives: the aims of this study were to analyze diet quality in a university population, and to assess its association with the prevalence of anxiety, stress, depression, and insomnia. Methods: a cross-sectional study of a sample of 1,055 university students. Three validated questionnaires were used: the Healthy Eating Index (HEI), the Depression Anxiety Stress Scale (DASS 21), and the Insomnia Severity Index. Results: the average HEI score was 68.57 ± 12.17. The prevalence of unhealthy eating was 82.3%, higher in women (84.8% vs. 76.4%). Unhealthy eating was significantly associated with prevalence of anxiety, depression, and stress. Excessive intake of sweets and low of dairy products were associated with a higher prevalence of psychological and sleep disturbances. Conclusions: unhealthy eating patterns are common among the university population, and related to anxiety, stress, and depression. Educational interventions to reduce unhealthy food consumption in university students may also result in psychological health improvements and/or vice versa

ABSTRACT

INTRODUCTION: Objectives: to estimate the prevalence of overweight and obesity in a sample of workers in Aragón (Spain) and to assess its associations with diabetes, dyslipidemia, hypertension and metabolic syndrome. Methods: cross-sectional study of a sample of 23,729 workers. Data from routine medical check-ups (physical examination, blood analysis and structured questionnaire) practiced by MAS Sociedad de Prevención were used. Results: prevalence of overweight and obesity was 38.6% and 18.4%, respectively (higher in males). Prevalence of diabetes mellitus, hypertension, dyslipidemia and metabolic syndrome was 7.6%, 20.1%, 31.3% and 7.5%, respectively. There was a significant association between overweight and obesity and prevalence of diabetes, dyslipidemia, hypertension and metabolic syndrome. Conclusions: states of overweight and obesity are common in the working population and are related to a significant increase in the prevalence of cardiovascular risk factors. It is necessary to promote strategies for prevention and management of body weight in the working population.

ABSTRACT

BACKGROUND: The concept of professional commitment is being widely studied at present. However, although it is considered an indicator for the most human part of nursing care, there is no clear definition for it, and different descriptors are being used indiscriminately to reference it. OBJECTIVE: The aim of this study is to clarify the concept of professional commitment in nursing through the Rodgers' evolutionary concept analysis process. DESIGN: Systematic search using English and Spanish descriptors and concept analysis. Studies published between 2009 and June 2015, front-to-back analysis of the Nursing Ethics journal and manual check of articles cited in studies related to the Nijmegen Professionalism Scale. RESEARCH DESIGN: The procedure of concept analysis developed by Rodgers was used. ETHICAL CONSIDERATIONS: Although the topic was not labeled as sensitive and subject to ethical approval, its realization was approved by the Ethical Committee of Clinical Research of Aragon (CEICA) approved the study on 18 March 2015 and also careful procedures have been followed according to ethics expressed in the Declaration of Helsinki. FINDINGS AND DISCUSSION: A total of 17 published studies. A clear definition of the concept was made, and surrogate terms, concept dimension, differential factors related to the concept, sociocultural variations and consequences for nursing practice were identified. CONCLUSION: There is a need for continuous advancement in the development of the concept, specific actions to encourage this and the improvement of evaluation methods for its study.

ABSTRACT

OBJECTIVE: To address the immediate consequences produced in the falls suffered by valid institutionalized elderly population' in the last twelve months. METHOD: A cross sectional study, by personal interview. Simple random sampling was performed. The study area corresponded to a private nursing home. The measuring instruments used in the study were the Mini Mental State Examination Lobo (MEC-35, 1979) to initially assess the level of cognitive development elderly study participants, and the WHO questionnaire for the study of falls in the elder 1989. RESULTS: Of the 21 drops produced in the last twelve months was found that 61.9% of falls were female, compared to 38.1% who relapsed in males. 52.4% of falls are not caused any consequences. 28.6% of falls caused superficial injuries and/or bruises, while the proportion of fractures corresponded to 19% for both sexes. Most of the falls did not produce immediate consequences whose percentage was 52.4% of cases. Second are superficial wounds and/or bruises with 28.6% and finally fractures with a ratio of 19%. CONCLUSIONS: The investigators considered the necessity of involvement of health professionals and the implementation ofpreventive strategies that can reduce the prevalence of falls. Thiswill successfully improve the quality of life of the elderly.

ABSTRACT

Objetivo. Conocer las consecuencias inmediatas producidas en las caídas que sufre la población anciana válida institucionalizada en los últimos doce meses. Método. Estudio descriptivo trasversal, mediante entrevista personal. Se realizó un muestreo aleatorio simple. El ámbito de estudio correspondió a un centro geriátrico privado. Los instrumentos de medida utilizados en el estudio fueron el Mini Examen Cognoscitivo de Lobo (MEC-35, 1979) para valorar inicialmente el nivel cognitivo de los ancianos participantes en el estudio, y el cuestionario de la OMS para el estudio de caídas en el anciano 1989. Resultados. De las 21 caídas producidas en los últimos doce meses se comprobó que el 61.9 % de ellas correspondieron al sexo femenino, frente al 38.1 %, que recayeron en el sexo masculino. En el 52.4 % de los casos, las caídas no ocasionaron ninguna consecuencia. El 28.6 % de las caídas ocasionaron heridas superficiales o contusiones, mientras que la proporción de fracturas correspondió a un 19 % para ambos sexos. La mayoría de las caídas no produjeron consecuencias inmediatas (el 52.4 % de los casos). En segundo lugar, encontramos las heridas superficiales o contusiones, con un 28.6 %, y finalmente las fracturas, con una proporción del 19 %. Conclusiones: Los investigadores del estudio consideran necesario la implicación de los profesionales sanitarios y la implementación de estrategias preventivas que logren disminuir la prevalencia de caídas. Esto permitirá mejorar satisfactoriamente la calidad de vida de nuestros mayores (AU)

ABSTRACT

Se denominan 'bebés medicamento' a, los niños concebidos con el propósito de que sean donantes compatibles para salvar, por medio de la determinación del antígeno leucocitario humano (HLA) de embriones, a un hermano que sufre una enfermedad congénita inmunitaria. Toda esta situación actual genera varios interrogantes éticos sobre el 'uso' o 'utilidad' de estas nuevas técnicas, el presente estudio pretende analizar las cuestiones bioéticas generadas más relevantes (AU)


The so‐called saviour sibling are those babys that were conceive with the purpose to become in compatible donor to save a sibling with immune congenital diseases through the identification of the human leukocyte antigen (HLA). In this entire new frame has born an ethical debate about the use of these techniques. This study tries to analyze the main bioethical question that this new situation provokes (AU)

ABSTRACT

Objetivo. Identificar publicaciones científicas sobre las caídas en la población anciana española no institucionalizada y resumir los hallazgos de los estudios que examinaron la incidencia, los factores de asociados y las consecuencias de las caídas en la población geriátrica española mayor o igual a 65 años no institucionalizada. Material y método. Revisión sistemática de estudios observacionales epidemiológicos en España, con registro de caídas, con temporalidad retrospectiva y publicados como artículos científicos entre los años 2003 y 2014 inclusive. La búsqueda de artículos se efectuó en julio de 2014, con límite de idioma y año de publicación, en las bases electrónicas PubMed, Dialnet, RedALyC, SciELO, Enfispo y Google Scholar. Resultados. La frecuencia de caídas registradas varió del 14.9 % al 66.2 %. La media de la ingesta de fármacos/día se encontraba entre 2.7 a 4.5 fármacos/día. El miedo a caer que presentaba la población anciana no institucionalizada se encontraba entre un 44.7 % y un 49.4 %. La gran mayoría de las caídas se produjeron en el ámbito domiciliario, y se hallaron porcentajes de entre el 55.1 % y el 61 %. Entre un 30 % y un 55.1 % de las personas que sufrieron caídas mantuvieron un contacto sanitario de forma inmediata, y la prevalencia de fracturas se situó entre un 0 % y un 26.1 %. Conclusión. Se puede confirmar que la prevalencia de caídas en la población anciana española es elevada, por lo que se aprecia la necesidad de nuevas investigaciones (AU)


Objective. To identify scientific publications about falls among non-institutionalized Spanish elderly population and to summarize the study findings which analysed the incidence, the risk factors and the consequences of the falls in the geriatric Spanish population aged 65 years and over who lives institutionalized in our country. Material and method. Systematic review of the epidemiological observational studies in Spain, with recording of falls, with temporary retrospective and published as scientific articles between the years 2003 and 2014 included. The articles search took place in July 2014, with the limit of language and publication year, in the electronic databases PubMed, Dialnet, RedALyC, SciELO, Enfispo and Google Scholar. Results. The percentage of people who suffered falls depending on the publication year. The frequency of falls recorded varied from 14.9 % to 66.2 %. The mean intake of daily drugs was between 2.7 to 4.5 drugs per day. The fear of falling that had the elderly population non-institutionalized was between 44.7 % and 49.4 %. The vast majority of falls occurred at home, with percentages between 55.1 % and 61 %. Between 30 % and 55.1 % of people who suffered falls maintained health care contact immediately and the fractures prevalence was between 0 % and 26.1 %. Conclusion. It can be confirmed that the falls prevalence in the spanish elderly population is high, so the need of new researches are appreciated (AU)

ABSTRACT

Introducción: Hasta ahora se ha estudiado la influencia de algunos factores como la edad o el sexo en el padecimiento de una enfermedad grave. Sin embargo se ha prestado poca atención a cómo influye el desempeño profesional y más concretamente cómo experimenta un profesional sanitario el tener una enfermedad. Objetivo: Conocer cómo influye en la experiencia de enfermar el hecho de ser una enfermera. Métodos: Estudio cualitativo basado en 11 relatos biográficos publicados en el fondo documental "Archivos de la Memoria" de la Fundación Index de entre 2004 y 2011. Resultados: Las enfermeras, sufren un conflicto de identidad marcado por el doble rol que ponen en juego, el de paciente y el de sanitario. Fruto de ese conflicto, la enfermera se siente rechazada por otros pacientes que le otorgan unos privilegios de los que no siempre disfruta, y, a la vez, es señalada por sus colegas por el hecho de enfermar


Scientific literature has focused on the influence of some factors such as age or gender in suffering. Little attention has been paid to how profession affects to suffering and, specifically, how health professionals experience serious illness. Aim: To examine the influence of being a nurse in serious illness experience. Methods: Qualitative study based on the secondary analysis of 11 biographical stories published in the documentary repository "Archives of Memory" of the Index Foundation between 2004 and 2011. Results: Nurses suffer an identity conflict marked by a dual role, as they are patient and health professionals at the same time. As a result of this conflict, nurses feel rejected by other patients, because it seem that they receive some privileges that do not always enjoy, and, in turn, are stigmatized by their colleagues, for the fact of being sick
