Estudios y notas sobre el romancero

En su estudio, la autora sugiere que un romance se mueve en el tiempo y en el espacio y, sin perder su esencia, va dando nacimiento a otros textos semejantes, pero no idénticos. La renovación del romance, apunta Díaz Roig, permite una adaptación a los gustos particulares, sociales o temporales, que favorece tanto la aprehensión del texto como su circulación

Lírica antigua y cancionero oral moderno: en torno a un estudio de Mercedes Díaz Roig y su amistad con Margit Frenk

Durante la breve estancia que realizó en Madrid a mediados del 2007, Margit Frenk puso en nuestras manos un documento que había permanecido varios años en sus archivos personales: 48 folios mecanuscritos que contenían un trabajo elaborado por Mercedes Díaz Roig en 1972, cuando asistió como alumna a su seminario sobre lírica antigua en El Colegio de México. Con anotaciones manuscritas de la profesora Frenk, ese trabajo de juventud de quien se convertiría en una de las mayores especialistas en el romancero nos pareció meritorio de un rescate que fuera al mismo tiempo un homenaje para Mercedes Díaz Roig. No podía existir mejor complemento para ese rescate que la nota de Margit Frenk que presentamos a continuación, la cual fue escrita expresamente para acompañar a ese documento titulado “Supervivencias en la lírica actual de canciones y coplas recogidas en Vergel de canciones antiguas"

Moderating Effect of Changes in Perceived Social Support during Pregnancy on the Emotional Health of Mothers and Fathers and on Baby’s Anthropometric Parameters at Birth

(1) Background: this study is based on a model of how changes in protective factors may affect the emotional health of mothers and fathers and thus influence the development of the baby. Our research goal is to determine whether variations in perceived social support moderate levels of stress and depression during pregnancy and/or the effect of parents’ emotional health on the baby’s anthropometric parameters. (2) Methods: to achieve these aims, a longitudinal study was made of 132 couples and babies, who were evaluated at weeks 12 and 32 of gestation and at birth. Separate analyses were performed for the mothers and fathers, focused on the role of social support in moderating their levels of depression and stress during pregnancy, and the consequent impact on the baby. (3) Results: the results obtained show the moderating effects of changes in social support on maternal and paternal stress and depression. Reduced social support during pregnancy is associated with higher levels of stress and depression in both parents and with a high cephalisation index in their babies. (4) Conclusions: special attention should be paid to social support, which can have a strong impact on the evolution of emotional health during pregnancy and concomitantly on the development of the baby.University of Granada (Spain)Andalusian Public Foundation for Biosanitary Research Eastern Andalusia (Spain)Regional Ministry of Health within Junta de Andalucia (Spain) PC-0526-2016-052

Psychological distress and resilience of mothers and fathers with respect to the neurobehavioral performance of small-forgestational- age newborns

The existence of psychological distress (PD) during pregnancy is well established. Nevertheless, few studies have analyzed the PD and resilience of mothers and fathers during high-risk pregnancy. This study analyzes the differences between parents’ PD and resilience and the relation between them and the neurobehavioral performance of their SGA newborns. Multivariate analysis of variance showed, in gender comparisons, that mothers obtained higher scores than fathers for psychological distress but lower ones for resilience. Similar differences were obtained in the comparison of parents’ distress to intrauterine growth by SGA vs. AGA newborns. Mothers of SGA newborns were more distressed than the other groups. However, there were no differences between the fathers of SGA vs. AGA newborns. Regarding neurobehavioral performance, the profiles of SGA newborns reflected a lower degree of maturity than those of AGA newborns. Hierarchical regression analyses showed that high stress and low resilience among mothers partially predict low neurobehavioral performance in SGA newborns. These findings indicate that mothers of SGA newborns may need psychological support to relieve stress and improve their resilience. Furthermore, attention should be paid to the neurobehavioral performance of their babies in case early attention is neededThis study was supported by University of Granada (Spain), Andalusian Public Foundation for Biosanitary Research Eastern Andalusia (Spain), and Ministry of Health, Junta de Andalucía (Spain) Award Number: PC-0526-2016-0526

Un instrumento de evaluación del aprendizaje para el manejo de catéteres venosos periféricos: adaptación, extensión y validación en español

La práctica de enfermería debe basarse en la práctica basada en la evidencia disponible debido a su impacto en la atención segura del paciente. Su uso no solo debe fomentarse en los profesionales, sino que debe iniciarse en la formación en enfermería. El objetivo de este estudio se basa en traducir, adaptar y validar un instrumento de evaluación del conocimiento basado en la evidencia científica disponible en relación al manejo de los catéteres venosos periféricos. Se siguió un proceso en dos etapas: 1) traducción, adaptación y ampliación del instrumento; y 2) pruebas psicométricas. El estudio incluyó 675 estudiantes de enfermería. El coeficiente de consistencia interna alfa de Cronbach fue 0,703 y el coeficiente de correlación intraclase de 0.91. El instrumento se presentó bastante equilibrado en cuanto a dificultad: 46,6% de ítems fáciles, 13.3% de ítems de dificultad media y 53.3% de alta dificultad. En conclusión, es un instrumento simple de utilizar y de puntuar. La versión española tiene unas buenas propiedades psicométricas y proporciona un instrumento válido y fiable para la valoración de los conocimientos basados en la evidencia para un manejo óptimo de catéteres venosos periféricos en personas portadoras

RICORS2040 : The need for collaborative research in chronic kidney disease

Chronic kidney disease (CKD) is a silent and poorly known killer. The current concept of CKD is relatively young and uptake by the public, physicians and health authorities is not widespread. Physicians still confuse CKD with chronic kidney insufficiency or failure. For the wider public and health authorities, CKD evokes kidney replacement therapy (KRT). In Spain, the prevalence of KRT is 0.13%. Thus health authorities may consider CKD a non-issue: very few persons eventually need KRT and, for those in whom kidneys fail, the problem is 'solved' by dialysis or kidney transplantation. However, KRT is the tip of the iceberg in the burden of CKD. The main burden of CKD is accelerated ageing and premature death. The cut-off points for kidney function and kidney damage indexes that define CKD also mark an increased risk for all-cause premature death. CKD is the most prevalent risk factor for lethal coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) and the factor that most increases the risk of death in COVID-19, after old age. Men and women undergoing KRT still have an annual mortality that is 10- to 100-fold higher than similar-age peers, and life expectancy is shortened by ~40 years for young persons on dialysis and by 15 years for young persons with a functioning kidney graft. CKD is expected to become the fifth greatest global cause of death by 2040 and the second greatest cause of death in Spain before the end of the century, a time when one in four Spaniards will have CKD. However, by 2022, CKD will become the only top-15 global predicted cause of death that is not supported by a dedicated well-funded Centres for Biomedical Research (CIBER) network structure in Spain. Realizing the underestimation of the CKD burden of disease by health authorities, the Decade of the Kidney initiative for 2020-2030 was launched by the American Association of Kidney Patients and the European Kidney Health Alliance. Leading Spanish kidney researchers grouped in the kidney collaborative research network Red de Investigación Renal have now applied for the Redes de Investigación Cooperativa Orientadas a Resultados en Salud (RICORS) call for collaborative research in Spain with the support of the Spanish Society of Nephrology, Federación Nacional de Asociaciones para la Lucha Contra las Enfermedades del Riñón and ONT: RICORS2040 aims to prevent the dire predictions for the global 2040 burden of CKD from becoming true
