    Dada la importancia del conocimiento previo para decidir de forma adaptable en el deporte, se estudió el conocimiento táctico de 109 jóvenes futbolistas de ocho a doce años y su relación con la edad, la experiencia y el nivel de pericia, mediante el Test de Conocimiento TácticoOfensivo en Fútbol. Se observaron diferencias significativas de magnitud moderada en función de la edad y la experiencia en competición federada de los jugadores (p < ,05; r < ,40), aunque los resultados fueron dispares. El nivel de pericia correlacionó significativamente con los conocimientos declarativo (rho = ,350; p < ,01), procedimental (rho = ,446; p < ,01) y táctico de los jugadores (rho = ,446; p < ,01). Los hallazgos sugieren que la edad y experiencia no tienen un papel tan determinante sobre el conocimiento táctico como otras variables: metodologías de enseñanza recibidas o la formación del entrenador. Se necesitan estudios en los que se analice si la formación específica en el conocimiento de los problemas tácticos mejora la habilidad de toma de decisiones en el deporte en general y en el fútbolbase en particular

    Introduction: Death with a functioning graft (DWFG) is the most frequent cause of loss of kidney transplantation (KT). Objective: To analyze the evolution of the causes of DWFG and the frequency of the types of cancer causing DWFG. Methods: Retrospective study of KT in Andalusia from 1984 to 2018. We analyzed the evolution according to eras (1984-1995; 1996-2007; 2008-2018) and according to post-transplant period (early death: first year post-KT; late death: after first year post-KT). Results: A total of 9905 KT were performed, registering 1861 DWFG. The most frequent causes were cardiovascular disease (25.1%), infections (21.5%) and cancer (19.9%). In early death we did not observe changes, and infections were always the main cause. In late death, cardiovascular death decreased (1984-1995: 35.2%, 1996-2007: 22.6%, 2008-2018: 23.9%), but infections (1984-1995: 12.5%, 1996-2007: 18.3%, 2008-2018: 19.9%) and, above all, cancer-related deaths increased (1984-1995: 21.8%, 1996-2007: 29%, 2008-2018: 26.8%) (P < .001). In the multivariable analysis for late death due to cardiovascular disease, recipient age, retransplantation, diabetes, and the first period were risk factors, while the risk of late death due to cancer and infections was associated with recent eras. In the first year after transplantation, the most frequent neoplasia causing DWFG was post-transplant lymphoproliferative disease, and after the first year, it was lung cancer, without differences when it was analyzed by eras. Conclusions: Despite the greater comorbidity of the recipients, cardiovascular deaths have decreased. Cancer has been the main cause of late death in recent years. Lung cancer is the most frequent malignancy that causes DWFG in our transplant patients

    Objective: The association between obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) and cancer mortality has scarcely been studied. The objective of this study was to investigate whether OSA is associated with increased cancer mortality in a large cohort of patients with OSA suspicion. Methods: This was a multicenter study in consecutive patients investigated for suspected OSA. OSA severity was measured by the apnea-hypopnea index (AHI) and the hypoxemia index (% night-time spent with oxygen saturation <90%, TSat₉₀). The association between OSA severity and cancer mortality was assessed using Cox's proportional regression analyses after adjusting for relevant confounders. Results: In all, 5427 patients with median follow-up of 4.5 years were included. Of these, 527 (9.7%) were diagnosed with cancer. Log-transformed TSat₉₀ was independently associated with increased cancer mortality in the entire cohort (hazard ratio [HR], 1.21; 95% confidence interval [CI], 1.03-1.42), as well as in the group of patients with cancer (HR, 1.19; 95% CI, 1.02-1.41). The closest association was shown in patients <65years in both the AHI (continuous log-transformed AHI: HR, 1.87; 95% CI, 1.1-3.2; upper vs lower AHI tertile: HR, 3.98; 95% CI, 1.14-3.64) and the TSat₉₀ (continuous log-transformed TSat₉₀: HR, 1.73; 95% CI, 1.23-2.4; upper vs. lower TSat₉₀ tertile: HR, 14.4; 95% CI, 1.85-111.6). Conclusions: OSA severity was associated with increased cancer mortality, particularly in patients aged <65 years.Funding source: (058/2011) Spanish Respiratory Society (SEPAR)

    Search for the decay Bs0→D*∓π±

    A search for the decay Bs0→D*∓π± is presented using a data sample corresponding to an integrated luminosity of 1.0  fb-1 of pp collisions collected by LHCb. This decay is expected to be mediated by a W-exchange diagram, with little contribution from rescattering processes, and therefore a measurement of the branching fraction will help us to understand the mechanism behind related decays such as Bs0→π+π- and Bs0→DD- . Systematic uncertainties are minimized by using B0→D*∓π± as a normalization channel. We find no evidence for a signal, and set an upper limit on the branching fraction of B(Bs0→D*∓π±)<6.1(7.8)×10-6 at 90% (95%) confidence level

    Search for CP violation in D+→ϕπ+ and D+s→K0Sπ+ decays

    Get PDF
    A search for CP violation in D + → ϕπ + decays is performed using data collected in 2011 by the LHCb experiment corresponding to an integrated luminosity of 1.0 fb−1 at a centre of mass energy of 7 TeV. The CP -violating asymmetry is measured to be (−0.04 ± 0.14 ± 0.14)% for candidates with K − K + mass within 20 MeV/c 2 of the ϕ meson mass. A search for a CP -violating asymmetry that varies across the ϕ mass region of the D + → K − K + π + Dalitz plot is also performed, and no evidence for CP violation is found. In addition, the CP asymmetry in the D+s→K0Sπ+ decay is measured to be (0.61 ± 0.83 ± 0.14)%

    Four-month incidence of suicidal thoughts and behaviors among healthcare workers after the first wave of the Spain COVID-19 pandemic

    Healthcare workers (HCW) are at high risk for suicide, yet little is known about the onset of suicidal thoughts and behaviors (STB) in this important segment of the population in conjunction with the COVID-19 pandemic. We conducted a multicenter, prospective cohort study of Spanish HCW active during the COVID-9 pandemic. A total of n = 4809 HCW participated at baseline (May-September 2020; i.e., just after the first wave of the pandemic) and at a four-month follow-up assessment (October-December 2020) using web-based surveys. Logistic regression assessed the individual- and population-level associations of separate proximal (pandemic) risk factors with four-month STB incidence (i.e., 30-day STB among HCW negative for 30-day STB at baseline), each time adjusting for distal (pre-pandemic) factors. STB incidence was estimated at 4.2% (SE = 0.5; n = 1 suicide attempt). Adjusted for distal factors, proximal risk factors most strongly associated with STB incidence were various sources of interpersonal stress (scaled 0-4; odds ratio [OR] range = 1.23-1.57) followed by personal health-related stress and stress related to the health of loved ones (scaled 0-4; OR range 1.30-1.32), and the perceived lack of healthcare center preparedness (scaled 0-4; OR = 1.34). Population-attributable risk proportions for these proximal risk factors were in the range 45.3-57.6%. Other significant risk factors were financial stressors (OR range 1.26-1.81), isolation/quarantine due to COVID-19 (OR = 1.53) and having changed to a specific COVID-19 related work location (OR = 1.72). Among other interventions, our findings call for healthcare systems to implement adequate conflict communication and resolution strategies and to improve family-work balance embedded in organizational justice strategies.This work was supported by grants from the Instituto de Salud Carlos III (ISCIII)/Ministerio de Ciencia e Innovación/FEDER, Spain (Jordi Alonso, grant number COV20/00711); ISCIII-FEDER, Spain (Jordi Alonso, grant number PI17/00521); ISCIII-FSE, Spain: Sara Borrell and Miguel Servet grants (Philippe Mortier, grant number CD18/00049 and CP21/00078); Generalitat de Catalunya, Spain (2017SGR452); and PERIS, Departament de Salut, Spain (Itxaso Alayo; SLT017/20/000009).
