    El proyecto es un Sistema de Información Geográfica y Visor web centrado en las energías renovables solar y eólica, contiene funcionalidad dirigida a facilitar elacceso de los ciudadanos y de las empresas del sector a la información de estas dos energías. Incorpora una herramienta de edición que pretende tener una base de datos actualizada de los parques solares y eólicos de España. Otra orientada al entorno urbano que permite saber la electricidad aproximada que se generaría en la cubierta de un edificio de Vitoria en función del panel solar que se instale en dicha cubierta. También se ha realizado un análisis espacial para encontrar los lugares óptimos para la instalación de paneles solares y eólicos en el País Vasco, se han publicado las capas resultado en el visor para que puedan acceder a ellas cualquier sociedad o empresa que le interese conocer este tipo de información. Para estos análisis se han tenido en cuenta estudios de diferentes universidades e informes de organizaciones como Greenpeace. No obstante, no deja de ser una propuesta objeto de posibles mejoras

    An Integrated Approach for the Early Detection of Endometrial and Ovarian Cancers (Screenwide Study): Rationale, Study Design and Pilot Study

    Screenwide is a case-control study (2017-2021) including women with incident endometrial and ovarian cancers (EC and OC), BRCA1/2 and MMR pathogenic variant carriers, and age-matched controls from three centers in Spain. Participants completed a personal interview on their sociodemographic factors, occupational exposure, medication, lifestyle, and medical history. We collected biological specimens, including blood samples, self-collected vaginal specimens, cervical pap-brush samples, uterine specimens, and, when available, tumor samples. The planned analyses included evaluation of the potential risk factors for EC/OC; evaluation of molecular biomarkers in minimally invasive samples; evaluation of the cost-effectiveness of molecular tests; and the generation of predictive scores to integrate different epidemiologic, clinical, and molecular factors. Overall, 182 EC, 69 OC, 98 BRCA pathogenic variant carriers, 104 MMR pathogenic variant carriers, and 385 controls were enrolled. The overall participation rate was 85.7%. The pilot study using 61 samples from nine EC cases and four controls showed that genetic variants at the variant allele fraction > 5% found in tumors (n = 61 variants across the nine tumors) were detected in paired endometrial aspirates, clinician-collected cervical samples, and vaginal self-samples with detection rates of 90% (55/61), 79% (48/61), and 72% (44/61) by duplex sequencing, respectively. Among the controls, only one somatic mutation was detected in a cervical sample. We enrolled more than 800 women to evaluate new early detection strategies. The preliminary data suggest that our methodological approach could be useful for the early detection of gynecological cancers

    Post-Hospital Syndrome and Hyponatremia

    Introduction: Post-hospital syndrome (PHS) is defined as a period of vulnerability during the first 30 days after a patient is discharged from hospital, in which multiple factors come into play. Hyponatremia is the most frequent hydroelectrolytic disorder in hospitalized patients and may be related to the appearance of PHS. Objective: The objective is to estimate the prevalence of PHS that is assessed as the rate of readmissions in the first 30 days after discharge, in patients with hyponatremia. Material and Methods: It is a descriptive observational study of patients with hyponatremia who were discharged from 1 September 2010 to 2 February 2020 at the Internal Medicine Service of the Hospital University of San Juan (Alicante, Spain). Results: Of the 25 included patients, 5 (20%) were readmitted within a month of discharge, after a mean of 11.4 days (standard deviation [SD] 5.1). The overall mortality of the study was 20% (n = 5), with one case of death in the first 30 days post-hospitalization (4%). In 12 patients (48%) the origin of the hyponatremia was undetermined. The most frequently recorded etiology for the condition was pharmacological (n = 7, 28%), and there was pronounced variability in its clinical and laboratory study. The most widely used corrective measure was drug withdrawal, in 16 patients (64%). Water intake restriction was the most common treatment after discharge (5 patients, 20%), followed by urea (2 patients, 8%), while tolvaptan was not used. Conclusion: Hyponatremia may be the cause of PHS, which could increase the rate of early readmission. Hyponatremia is an underdiagnosed and undertreated entity, so it is necessary to apply an appropriate system to optimize its management and, in future studies, to assess its impact on PHS

    eGruyere, otra forma de generar desarrollo local

    Un modelo de desarrollo local basado en el concepto de red distribuida, en la que todos los agentes implicados en el desarrollo económico y social de un contexto son considerados nodos igualmente generadores de desarrollo. Y esto es así porque se trabaja entre personas vinculadas a un hipercontexto, real y virtual que las conecta y que ellas pueden activar. Hablamos pues de lo concreto como un entorno real en el que trabajar y no de un espacio universal abstracto y que por tanto es inalcanzable.A local development model based on the concept of distributed network, in which all those involved in economic and social development of a context are also considered nodes generating development. And this is because it works between people linked to a hipercontexto real and virtual that they can connect and activate. We speak because of the concrete as a real environment in which to work and not an abstract universal space and therefore unattainable

    Effectiveness of exercise on pain intensity and physical function in patients with knee and hip osteoarthritis: an umbrella and mapping review with meta-meta-analysis

    Purpose: The aim of this review was to provide a qualitative and quantitative overview of the effects of exercise on pain, physical function, and quality of life for patients with knee and hip osteoarthritis. Materials and methods: This study was an umbrella and mapping review with meta-meta-analysis. Meta-analyses of randomized controlled trials were included. The methodological quality and risk of bias were evaluated using the Modified Quality Assessment Scale for Systematic Reviews and the Risk of Bias in Systematic Reviews tool. The quality of evidence was evaluated using the Physical Activity Guidelines Advisory Committee Grading Criteria. Results: 41 meta-analyses were included, 43.9% of the studies had adequate methodological quality, and 56.1% of the studies had a low risk of bias. Moderate evidence was found that exercise decreases pain intensity (33 meta-analyses; SMD=−0.49; 95% CI −0.56 to −0.42), improves function (19 meta-analyses; SMD=−0.50; 95% CI −0.58 to −0.41), strength (6 meta-analyses; SMD=−0.57; 95% CI −0.70 to −0.44) and quality of life (SMD=−0.36; 95% CI −0.46 to −0.27) for patients with hip and knee osteoarthritis. Conclusion: Exercise is an effective intervention to decrease pain intensity and improve function in patients with hip and knee osteoarthritis.Sin financiación2.2 Q2 JCR 20220.762 Q1 SJR 2022No data IDR 2021UE
