Programa de estimulación temprana: Síndrome de Lennox
La estimulación temprana pretende ofrecer un refuerzo estimulante a través de una serie de acciones educativas y terapéuticas para los niños con necesidades especiales y sus familias. En este trabajo se presenta una intervención de un caso único con el objetivo de mantener las habilidades psicomotoras y socio – afectivas, estimular las respuestas adaptativas de un niño con Síndrome de Lennox, así como, promover su integración social y eliminar las barreras de su entorno. Esto se puede lograr mediante un programa de intervención temprana.
A pesar de las dificultades los resultados han sido satisfactorios, por lo que, finalizada la intervención se recomienda continuar con el programa. Sin embargo, hay otros aspectos a ser reforzados por lo que es recomendable remitir al niño a otro servicio complementario.Early stimulation intends to offer a stimulating reinforcement through a range of educational and therapeutic iniciatives for children with special needs and their families. This paper presents an intervention in a unique case in order to maintain psychomotor and socio-affective skills, stimulate the adaptive response of a child with Lennox Syndrome. Also this intervention promotes his social inclusion and remove his environmental barriers. This is enabled by an early stimulation programme. Despite the challenges, the results has been successful, therefore, at the end of the intervention it is recommended to continue with the proposed program. However, there are other issues to be reinforced so is recommended to send the child to an additional service
Nuevos segmentos turístico culturales. Una aproximación al comportamiento del consumidor turístico cinematográfico
This research analyzes the tourist profile, his attitude towards marketing, behavioral intentions and motives or reasons to consume film tourism. Using a sample of 484 interviews, the research proves the existence of a positive attitude towards the product and an interest in the promotional activities of the destinations through feature films. It also shows the existence of a number of reasons that should be known to adapt effectively to the needs of potential consumers and to increase their satisfaction.En esta investigación se analiza el perfil del turista, su actitud hacia la comercialización, sus intenciones comportamentales y los motivos o razones para consumir turismo cinematográfico. Utilizando una muestra de 484 entrevistados, se comprueba la existencia de una actitud positiva hacia el producto, un interés hacia las acciones promocionales de los destinos a través de los largometrajes y la existencia de una serie de motivos que se deben conocer para poder adaptar el producto eficazmente a las necesidades de sus potenciales consumidores y aumentar su satisfacción

Teachers’ perception of disruptive behaviour in the classrooms
Antecedentes: el fenómeno de la disrupción es cada vez más habitual en las aulas y se asocia específicamente a conductas que dificultan y obstaculizan el proceso de enseñanza-aprendizaje. El objetivo principal de esta investigación consiste en analizar la percepción del profesorado sobre esta cuestión. Específicamente se trata de observar qué valoración dan a las medidas propuestas para mejorar la docencia, examinar qué modalidades de escolarización consideran más idóneas para afrontar la disrupción, determinar sus causas y analizar si existen diferencias según las características del profesorado. Método: 346 participantes respondieron a una escala de conductas disruptivas tipo Likert. La edad media es de 43,47, siendo el 82,9% mujeres y el 13,6% hombres. Resultados: las medidas propuestas para la mejora de la docencia son ampliamente aceptadas, existiendo diferencias en su priorización; la modalidad de escolarización idónea es la de centros ordinarios, existiendo diferencias de opinión, según las características del profesorado; y todas las causas del incremento de problemas son altamente puntuadas, destacando la falta de normas y límites en el entorno familiar. Conclusiones: los profesores demandan mejoras y necesidad de apoyo institucional. Toda reflexión previa sobre cómo mejorar la calidad del sistema educativo podría tener en consideración los resultados de este estudio
Un nuevo modelo de centros de investigación para la integración de discapacitados y mayores
[ESP] Se describe la evolución de una larga colaboración entre investigadores en el campo de la
Tecnología de la Rehabilitación, las Ayudas Tecnológicas y la Ingeniería Biomédica aplicada a la
Discapacidad en general; con varias Asociaciones de Discapacitados, destacando cómo la
problemática puesta de manifiesto en estas actividades condujo a la definición de un Centro de
Investigación integrado en una estructura más compleja, correspondiente a lo que la literatura actual
define como Centro Asistivo
[ENG] This paper describes the establishment, as well as the organizational, functional and
economical environment of a research centre; the “Biomedical Engineering Centre for the Integration of
the Disabled People” (CIBID), which has been created thanks to the old relationship between the
Polytechnic University of Cartagena and many Elderly and Disabled People Associations. As main
goal, this centre incorporates into its structure not only all the university researches and disabled people
associations needed… even the recourses for the commercialization and industrial making of medium
series for an Associated Special Employment Centre that will employ at least to 15 disabled people in
technical aids manufacturing
Feeding, Muscle and Packaging Effects on Meat Quality and Consumer Acceptability of Avileña-Negra Ibérica Beef
In order to achieve an attractive and differentiated product for the consumer and to optimize and to maximize profitability for the farmers within the EU Protected Geographical Indication "Carne de Ávila", 24 yearling males of Avileña-Negra Ibérica breed were used to evaluate the effect of 2 feeding systems, concentrate (CON) and maize silage (SIL), and 2 packaging systems, vacuum (VAC) and modified atmosphere (MAP), on fatty acid composition, proximate analysis, water holding capacity and consumer acceptability of meat in 2 muscles: Longissimus thoracis (LT) and Semitendinosus (ST). Animals fed with concentrate showed higher carcass weight. However, feeding did not affect the proximate analysis of the meat. The use of maize silage improved the amount of conjugated linoleic acid and n-3 polyunsaturated fatty acids (PUFA) and the relation n-6 PUFA/n-3 PUFA. In LT muscle, feeding influenced texture, samples from SIL being more tender. The VAC packaging showed higher cooking losses than MAP in both muscles. Aging increased tenderness and cooking losses but decreased thawing losses. LT samples from SIL feeding were better accepted by consumers and VAC packaging showed higher scores than MAP. We can conclude that the use of maize silage could be an alternative feeding for this type of animals improving some aspects of the quality of the meat
Mesenchymal stem cells secretome : The cornerstone of cell-free regenerative medicine
Mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) are the most frequently used stem cells in clinical trials due to their easy isolation from various adult tissues, their ability of homing to injury sites and their potential to differentiate into multiple cell types. However, the realization that the beneficial effect of MSCs relies mainly on their paracrine action, rather than on their engraftment in the recipient tissue and subsequent differentiation, has opened the way to cell-free therapeutic strategies in regenerative medicine. All the soluble factors and vesicles secreted by MSCs are commonly known as secretome. MSCs secretome has a key role in cell-to-cell communication and has been proven to be an active mediator of immune-modulation and regeneration both in vitro and in vivo. Moreover, the use of secretome has key advantages over cell-based therapies, such as a lower immunogenicity and easy production, handling and storage. Importantly, MSCs can be modulated to alter their secretome composition to better suit specific therapeutic goals, thus, opening a large number of possibilities. Altogether these advantages now place MSCs secretome at the center of an important number of investigations in different clinical contexts, enabling rapid scientific progress in this field.Supported by Spanish Ministerio de Economía y competitividad, No. RTI2018-097324; Predoctoral program in Biomedicine from the University of Cantabria and the Instituto de Investigación Valdecilla (IDIVAL), No. PREVAL 19/02 and PREVAL 20/01
