RESUMO
Introducción: La dermatitis atópica es una enfermedad inflamatoria y crónica de la piel que afecta en gran medida a la calidad de vida de los pacientes de la padecen. Objetivo: Evaluar la eficacia de la atención farmacéutica en pacientes con dermatitis atópica diagnosticada, valorando su impacto sobre la sintomatología y la adherencia al tratamiento. Métodos: Se realizó un estudio experimental longitudinal prospectivo en 50 pacientes con dermatitis atópica no controlada, llevando a cabo una actuación farmacéutica individualizada basada en tres estrategias: educación sanitaria, seguimiento farmacoterapéutico, e intervención sobre el cuidado dermocosmético. Se evaluó la sintomatología y la adherencia al tratamiento farmacológico de cada paciente, y su evolución tras la intervención. Resultados: Los datos obtenidos se analizaron mediante el test estadístico de McNemar, confirmando que el 79,17% de los pacientes graves y el 92,30% de los casos moderados mejoraron significativamente tras la intervención. El valor obtenido del estadístico (Z=3,49) indicó que las variables intervención farmacéutica y mejora del paciente no eran independientes, siendo la primera la causa de la segunda. Al inicio del estudio, el 42% de los pacientes eran incumplidores, mientras que al final del mismo sólo el 23,81% lo eran. Conclusión: Este estudio demuestra que la atención farmacéutica, y más concretamente el seguimiento farmacoterapéutico, son herramientas útiles y necesarias para reducir la sintomatología y mejorar la calidad de vida de los pacientes con dermatitis atópica
Introduction: Atopic dermatitis is an inflammatory and chronic skin disease that greatly affects the quality of life of patients suffering from it. Objective: To evaluate the efficacy of pharmaceutical care in patients with diagnosed atopic dermatitis, assessing its impact on symptomatology and adherence to treatment. Methods: A prospective longitudinal experimental study was conducted in 50 patients with uncontrolled atopic dermatitis, and an individualized pharmaceutical action was carried out based on three strategies: health education, pharmacotherapeutic follow-up, and intervention on the dermocosmetic routine. The symptomatology and adherence to the pharmacological treatment of each patient, and their evolution after the intervention were evaluated. Results: The data obtained were analyzed by means of the McNemar statistical test, confirming that 79.17% of the serious patients and 92.30% of the moderate cases improved significantly after the intervention. The value obtained from the statistic (Z = 3.49) indicated that the variables pharmaceutical intervention and patient improvement were not independent, the former being the cause of the latter. At the beginning of the study, 42% of the patients were noncompliant, while at the end of the study only 23.81% were noncompliant. Conclusion: This study demonstrates that pharmaceutical care, and more specifically pharmacotherapy follow-up, are useful and necessary tools to reduce symptomatology and improve the quality of life of patients with atopic dermatitis

Introducción. Presentamos los resultados de la evaluación de las Jornadas Complutenses de Investigación para alumnos de pregrado en Ciencias de la Salud, una actividad académica con dos años de experiencia y una participación de 1.434 alumnos, creada en nuestra universidad para impulsar en los alumnos de pregrado habilidades comunicativas y de metodología en investigación. Sujetos y métodos. Mediante una encuesta anónima se evaluó en los alumnos el grado de satisfacción e interés(aprender metodología científica, aprender a hablar en público, etc.) y también en los moderadores de mesas(originalidad, planteamiento metodológico, presentación iconográfica, exposición oral, viabilidad y relevancia de las comunicaciones presentadas). Resultados. En las I Jornadas se inscribieron 500 alumnos, todos de la Universidad Complutense de Madrid (UCM), y se presentaron un total de 169 comunicaciones (129 orales, 40 pósters). En las II Jornadas lo hicieron 934 alumnos, 838 de la UCM y 96 de otras nueve universidades, y se presentaron un total de286 comunicaciones (180 orales, 106 pósteres). Conclusiones. Es una actividad en la que el alumno pasa a ser un gestor activo y difusor de aprendizaje, y potencia de una manera dinámica habilidades en comunicación científica. También tiene beneficios para el profesorado y la institución universitaria, que la convierten en una terapia pedagógica holística (AU)
Introduction. We present here the results of the appraisal of the Complutense Conference on Research for undergraduate students in Health Sciences, an academic activity which has been running for two years, with the participation of 1,434students. It was set up in this University to encourage communication skills and research methodology among undergraduate students. Subjects and methods. By means of an anonymous survey, the levels of satisfaction and interest of the students were evaluated (learning scientific methodology, learning to speak in public, etc.); similarly, that of the panel moderators (originality, methodological approach, iconographic presentation, oral presentation, viability and relevance of presentations given). Results. The First Conference had 500 registered students, all from the Complutense University of Madrid (UCM), with a total of 169 presentations(129 oral, 40 poster). In the Second Conference there were934 students, 838 from the UCM and 96 from nine other universities, with a total of 286 presentations (180 oral, poster106). Conclusions. This is an activity in which the student becomes an active manager and imparter of learning, and dynamically reinforces his or her skills in science communication. It also has benefits for teachers and the University itself, making it a holistic pedagogical therapy (AU)

A drug surveillance study has been carried out with oral cytidine diphosphate choline (CDP-choline, citicoline, Somazina) in 2817 patients of all ages, predominating those between 60 and 80 years old. They were suffering from several neurological processes, mainly the vasculocerebral insufficiency and senile involution. Treatment was carried out for between 15 days and 2 months, the mean dose being 6 ml/d. The efficacy of the treatment was determined on the basis of the disappearance, improvement or worsening of clinical manifestations, most frequently shown by patients. The most benefited clinical manifestations by the treatment were: dizziness disappearing in 48.4% of the cases, and improving in 25.2%, cephalea disappearing in 46.5% and improving in 26.7%, insomnia with 38.6% and 24.9%, respectively; depression with 36.9% and 24.1% and memory shortage with 21.2% and 44.7% respectively. The best results were obtained in chronic cerebrovascular insufficiency, the improvements obtained in dizziness, cephalea, insomnia, fatigue and speech troubles being the most important. The safety of the drug was excellent since side effects were observed only in 5.01% of the patients. Among these effects, the most frequently seen were digestive troubles, observed in 3.6% of the cases.
