    La pregunta por la identidad y la cultura jurídica latinoamericana, que se remonta a la colonización española y su influencia en la práctica decimonónica del derecho y la justicia en esta región; el esfuerzo de los pueblos originarios por el acceso a una justicia asociada a la preservación de su cultura, la toma de conciencia de grupos específicos de la población respecto a la oportunidad de concebir y promover derechos colectivos fundamentales, la tensión entre las fuentes del derecho, el trabajo y el capital en una época de transición, como un conflicto que –desde la revolución industrial– está aún muy lejos de avizorar una solución; o las complejas relaciones, prácticas y teóricas, que experimenta la continua reacomodación de los procesos complementarios de la integración regional y la descentralización territorial; estos son algunos de los problemas que suscitan el interés investigativo de los autores que colaboran en esta publicación, la cual manifiesta la confluencia de esfuerzos y la mutua colaboración en un proyecto de investigación planeado a largo plazo. Como podrán observar los lectores, los resultados aquí presentados son necesariamente transitorios, pues obedecen a un ejercicio de observación de la actualidad que no siempre resulta fácil de capturar. Por el contrario, estos informes confiesan el esfuerzo por ajustarse a un objeto de investigación siempre cambiante, esquivo, y que por lo tanto exige un gran esfuerzo de imaginación sociológica –e incluso, preciso es confesarlo, de ambiciones desmesuradas que suelen verse objetadas por la realidad y exhortadas a un replanteamiento en sus opciones teóricas y metodológicas. Conscientes de la riqueza y complejidad en los procesos de investigación, la Decanatura de Derecho y el Centro de Investigaciones Socio Jurídicas de la Universidad Libre vienen desarrollando de forma progresiva un programa de inversión en talento humano y publicaciones especializadas que responda a las expectativas de la comunidad universitaria en pregrado y posgrado, pero también a los desafíos de las políticas nacionales de investigación y acreditación, enfocadas a mejorar la calidad de la educación superior a largo plazo. El texto aquí presentado es resultado de tal esfuerzo institucional. El grupo Derecho, Estado y Territorio es privilegiado en cuanto a la formación académica y opciones teóricas, incluso heterogéneas, de sus investigadores. Si tal patrimonio intelectual se muestra además complementario, en el sentido manifiesto de la multiplicidad de perspectivas sobre una realidad siempre cambiante, es una fortaleza o debilidad que los lectores sabrán evaluar, como ya ha sido el caso. De hecho, esta es la cuarta entrega colectiva del grupo –además de los varios trabajos individuales–, que sigue a los títulos Las miradas a la globalización desde el Estado, El derecho y el territorio, Estado, Constitución y territorialidad; y Tensiones y disputas en la globalización, con los cuales se quiere continuar la serie sobre un tema que se muestra inagotable. La Decanatura de Derecho, el Centro de Investigaciones Socio Jurídicas y el grupo Estado, Derecho y Territorio agradecen los comentarios y sugerencias de los amables lectores, que pueden ser enviados al correo electrónico: [email protected]

    Effectiveness of Motivational Interviewing in improving lipid level in patients with dyslipidemia assisted by general practitioners: Dislip-EM study protocol

    <p>Abstract</p> <p>Background</p> <p>The non-pharmacological approach to cholesterol control in patients with hyperlipidemia is based on the promotion of a healthy diet and physical activity. Thus, to help patients change their habits, it is essential to identify the most effective approach. Many efforts have been devoted to explain changes in or adherence to specific health behaviors. Such efforts have resulted in the development of theories that have been applied in prevention campaigns, and that include brief advice and counseling services. Within this context, Motivational Interviewing has proven to be effective in changing health behaviors in specific cases. However, more robust evidence is needed on the effectiveness of Motivational Interviewing in treating chronic pathologies -such as dyslipidemia- in patients assisted by general practitioners. This article describes a protocol to assess the effectiveness of MI as compared with general practice (brief advice), with the aim of improving lipid level control in patients with dyslipidemia assisted by a general practitioner.</p> <p>Methods/Design</p> <p>An open, two-arm parallel, multicentre, cluster, controlled, randomized, clinical trial will be performed. A total of 48-50 general practitioners from 35 public primary care centers in Spain will be randomized and will recruit 436 patients with dyslipidemia. They will perform an intervention based either on Motivational Interviewing or on the usual brief advice. After an initial assessment, follow-ups will be performed at 2, 4, 8 and 12 months. Primary outcomes are lipid levels (total cholesterol, HDL cholesterol, LDL cholesterol, triglycerides) and cardiovascular risk. The study will assess the degree of dietary and physical activity improvement, weight loss in overweight patients, and adherence to treatment guidelines.</p> <p>Discussion</p> <p>Motivational interview skills constitute the primary strategies GPs use to treat their patients. Having economical, simple, effective and applicable techniques is essential for primary care professionals to help their patients change their lifestyle and improve their health. This study will provide scientific evidence on the effectiveness of Motivational interviewing, and will be performed under strict control over the data collected, ensuring the maintenance of therapeutic integrity.</p> <p>Trials Registration</p> <p>ClinicalTrials.gov (<a href="http://www.clinicaltrials.gov/ct2/show/NCT01282190">NCT01282190</a>).</p

    Abstract Number ‐ 46: Automated Magnetic Resonance Perfusion Imaging in the Management of Delayed Cerebral Ischemia: A Pilot Study

    No full text
    Introduction Inadequate perfusion secondary to changes in vascular narrowing and breakdown of cerebral autoregulation is thought to be a major contributor to delayed cerebral ischemia (DCI). Subjective evaluation of narrowing of large and medium intracranial vessels on angiography detects vasospasm in up to 70% of patients, though only 30% become clinically symptomatic. There are no available tools for the quantification of tissue level perfusion to detect critical levels of ischemia in this setting. We aimed to evaluate focal perfusion changes using MR‐perfusion weighted imaging with automated thresholding of flow and timing parameters in the setting of DCI. Methods This is a prospective observational pilot study that includes seven patients with SAH. All patients underwent multimodality MRI including diffusion and perfusion imaging when there was concern for DCI. RAPID software was used to process diffusion and perfusion images and obtain threshold maps for diffusion restriction, Tmax prolongation and drops in cerebral blood volume (CBV), and cerebral blood flow (CBF). Correspondence of neuroanatomic location of focal perfusion alteration and pattern of perfusion alteration was evaluated. Results Neuroanatomical location of perfusion alteration corresponded to neurological symptoms in 86% (6/7) of patients. The prominent patterns were: prolongation of Tmax greater than four seconds (7/7), greater than 20% drop in CBF (3/7), and greater than 20% drop in CBV (3/7). Significant radiographic vasospasm on concurrently catheter angiogram and/or MR angiogram which corresponded to the supplying vessels to the neuroanatomic area with altered perfusion was seen in 71% (5/7) of the patients. Conclusions MRI‐perfusion imaging using RAPID software can help detect and quantify the presence of inadequate focal perfusion for DCI in real‐time. This tool could guide the timing and extent of endovascular vasodilatory and medical hyperdynamic treatment and larger studies of MRI‐perfusion imaging for DCI are warranted

    Substance P signalling in primary motor cortex facilitates motor learning in rats.

    Among the genes that are up-regulated in response to a reaching training in rats, Tachykinin 1 (Tac1)-a gene that encodes the neuropeptide Substance P (Sub P)-shows an especially strong expression. Using Real-Time RT-PCR, a detailed time-course of Tac1 expression could be defined: a significant peak occurs 7 hours after training ended at the first and second training session, whereas no up-regulation could be detected at a later time-point (sixth training session). To assess the physiological role of Sub P during movement acquisition, microinjections into the primary motor cortex (M1) contralateral to the trained paw were performed. When Sub P was injected before the first three sessions of a reaching training, effectiveness of motor learning became significantly increased. Injections at a time-point when rats already knew the task (i.e. training session ten and eleven) had no effect on reaching performance. Sub P injections did not influence the improvement of performance within a single training session, but retention of performance between sessions became strengthened at a very early stage (i.e. between baseline-training and first training session). Thus, Sub P facilitates motor learning in the very early phase of skill acquisition by supporting memory consolidation. In line with these findings, learning related expression of the precursor Tac1 occurs at early but not at later time-points during reaching training

    <p>Levels of Tac1 mRNA within M1 were measured using Real-Time RT-PCR in rats that were trained in a reaching task and related to an activity control at different time points. Tac1 expression was significantly elevated in learning rats seven hours after the training ended in the stage of skill acquisition (training session 1 and 2). This pattern was not observable at a later time-point (training session 6). *: p ≤ 0.05.</p

    Injection of Substance P boosts motor learning.

    <p>Injecting 1 μl Sub P into M1 before training session 1–3 (black arrows) significantly improves the performance gain when compared to controls. Injecting the same amount of Substance P to a time-point when animals reached plateau (grey arrows) has no effect. Thus, Substance P affects the acquisition but not execution of a skilled reaching task. Values are presented as mean ± SEM.</p
