Incidencia de los trastornos mentales en jóvenes universitarios. Investigación exploratoria y estrategias para la intervención desde la educación emocional
El concepto de trastorno mental se atribuye al conjunto de alteraciones que afectan de manera directa a las emociones, pensamiento y conducta. Actualmente, diversos problemas psicosociales son la causa principal por la que sufren trastornos mentales los jóvenes.
La consecuencia de no prevenir la aparición de los trastornos mentales implica un deterioro en la calidad de vida, empeoramiento del nivel académico y aumento de las conductas de riesgo.
Se ha demostrado que se puede mejorar la salud mental mediante la educación emocional, bien sea para mejorar el estado de bienestar psicológico o para afrontar un trastorno mental. En este TFG se aborda el tema de los trastornos mentales en una muestra de alumnos de grado del Campus de Palencia, investigación que hay que entender como exploratoria en cuanto a la profundidad y cuantitativa por su metodología.
La necesidad de una educación emocional no solo es imprescindible para que jóvenes y adolescentes sean capaces de enfrentarse fácilmente a los problemas de la vida o para que la prevalencia de trastornos mentales entre estos grupos sociales disminuya, también lo es para que se produzca el aprendizaje óptimoGrado en Educación Socia
Prevalence of musculoskeletal disorders in children´s foot: preliminary study
A la edad escolar ya se tiene la marcha, la funcionalidad y la morfología del pie característica del adulto pero aún no está completada la madurez esquelética. Esto hace que sea una edad propicia para realizar una adecuada prevención y un diagnóstico precoz de las alteraciones musculoesqueléticas de los pies y miembros inferiores. Hemos realizado un estudio transversal de prevalencia para conocer el estado de salud de los pies de los escolares. Se han evaluado 116 niños mediante una observación clínica y un estudio de la marcha con una plataforma de presiones. Los resultados más llamativos fueron que al 93% nunca se les había realizado una exploración similar, el 95% tenía alterado el reparto de presiones de la huella, un 75% presentaba alguna alteración en la dinámica (la más frecuente excesiva pronación en la fase de propulsión) y el mismo porcentaje de niños llevaban el calzado de talla pequeña. Más de la mitad tenía una huella anormal y el pie excesivamente pronado. Un 40% presentaba dolor, el 35% tenía pie cavo y un 10% pie plano. El 32% tenía alguna patología de antepie. El resto de alteraciones fueron menos frecuentes. Hemos encontrado una alta prevalencia de alteraciones, por lo que se evidencia una vez más la necesidad de hacer controles periódicos a estas edades e incluirlos dentro de los programas de educación para la salud y prevenir futuras complicaciones.At school age, children already have the functionality and foot morphology of adult but have not yet completed skeletal maturity. This makes it a proper age for appropriate prevention and early diagnosis of musculoskeletal disorders of the feet and lower limbs. We conducted a cross-sectional study of prevalence for the health of the feet of the schoolaged children. 116 children have been assessed by clinical observation and a study of gait with a pressure platform. The most striking results were that 93% never had made a similar exploration, 95% had altered pressure distribution footprint, 75% showed some alteration in the dynamics (the most frequent excessive pronation phase propulsion) and the same percentage of children wearing shoes small size. More than half had an abnormal trace excessively pronated foot. Meanwhile, 40% had pain, 35% had pes cavus and flatfoot 10%. Finally, 32% had one forefoot pathology. The remaining changes were less frequent. We found a high prevalence of alterations so it is further evidence of the need for regular checks at this age to prevent complications and implement programs of health education
Mejoramiento de un asentamiento en medio Piura (Perú)
Como primer acercamiento teórico y académico a una situación concreta de necesidad, hemos encontrado nuevos retos y posibilidades de actuación. El curso ha supuesto un paso adelante en nuestro aprendizaje sobre temas de habitabilidad básica y ha profundizado nuestro interés por ellos. A la hora de adentrarnos en marcar las trazas de desarrollo de un asentamiento, una vez asumida la importancia de un análisis previo, establecemos la necesidad de mantenimiento de lo preexistente y de la introducción del asentamiento como parte activa de una red viaria de conexión con las ciudades próximas. Además, reivindicamos la preocupación por el espacio público en estos nuevos núcleos de hábitat otorgándole la misma importancia que a la vivienda pues, ya en el urbanismo formal, entendimos que es imprescindible para una convivencia social fructífera y el desarrollo de una civilización equilibrada y salubre. Presentamos espacios con vocación de ser ciudad donde marcamos los primeros pasos de desarrollo de la urbanización del asentamiento, dando flexibilidad a los habitantes para designar y modificar el futuro del mismo. Se establecen y proponen modos de organización y distribución basados en métodos de construcción de bajo coste y permitiendo el cambio de pavimentos y estrategias de urbanización con el avance del asentamiento en el tiempo
A Workflow for the Networked Ontologies Lifecycle. A Case Study in FAO of the UN
This document shows a preliminary framework for editing
networked ontologies in the context of the NeOn project. The goal is to manage, in a collaborative way, multiple networked ontologies for large-scale semantic applications. This paper shows the main concepts on the editorial workflow and several lifecycle use cases. The ontologies
produced with this framework will be used by the Food and Agriculture Organization of the United Nations (FAO) in many different large applications such the Fisheries Stock Depletion Assessment System[4].
Therefore a major goal for FAO is to have a strong and reliable ontology management system for editing the networked ontologies that applications will use as a basis. This framework for editing networked ontologies is being developed in the context of the NeOn Project1. What we present here is a brief summary of the activities carried out in this project regarding user requirements and subsequent use case analysis
Do it yourself and do it to others. About publics and collections in libraries
Las autoediciones han dado voz a quienes han sentido que tenían algo que decir al margen de los canales establecidos. Por eso hay una tradición en el uso de los fanzines entre comunidades queer, movimientos sociales, anarquismos, feminismos… Los artistas descubrieron hace ya mucho que un libro podía ser una pieza artística y hasta aquí hemos llegado con una producción cada vez más variada de publicaciones. Hay un encuentro entre lo autoeditado (o editado en los márgenes producciones editoriales o artísticas hegemónicas u oficiales) y la intencionalidad artística que desborda la idea tradicional de libro que ha sido paradigma en bibliotecas y librerías. Los libros ya no son lo que eran, las bibliotecas tampoco.The self-editions have given voice to those who have felt that they had something to say outside the established channels. That is why there is a tradition in the use of fanzines among queer communities, social movements, anarchisms, feminisms ... The artists discovered long ago that a book could be an artistic piece and now we have come upon an increasingly varied production of publications. There is a confluence between the self-published (or edited in the margins of hegemonic or official publishing or artistic productions) and the artistic intentionality that goes beyond the traditional idea of a book that has been a paradigm in libraries and bookstores. Books are no longer what they were, libraries either
Recognition of AMP, ADP and ATP through cooperative binding by Cu(II) and Zn(II) complexes containing urea and/or phenylboronic acid moieties
[Abstract] We report a series of Cu(II) and Zn(II) complexes with different ligands containing a dipicolyl unit functionalized with urea groups that may contain or not a phenylboronic acid function. These complexes were designed for the recognition of phosphorylated anions through coordination to themetal ion reinforced by hydrogen bonds involving the anion and NHgroups of urea. The complexes were isolated and several adducts with pyrophosphate were characterized using X-ray diffraction measurements. Coordination of one of the urea nitrogen atoms to themetal ion promoted the hydrolysis of the ligands containing 1,3-diphenylurea units, while ligands bearing 1-ethyl-3-phenylurea groups did not hydrolyze significantly at room temperature. Spectrophotometric titrations, combined with 1H and 31P NMR studies, were used in investigating the binding of phosphate, pyrophosphate (PPi), and nucleoside 50-polyphosphates (AMP, ADP, ATP, CMP, and UMP). The association constants determined in aqueous solution (pH 7.0, 0.1MMOPS) point to a stronger association with PPi, ADP, and ATP as compared with the anions containing a single phosphate unit. The [CuL4]2+ complex shows important selectivity for pyrophosphate (PPi) over ADP and ATP.Galicia. Consellería de Cultura, Educación e Ordenación Universitaria; EM 2012/08
Lead(II) complexes of lateral macrobicyclic receptors that incorporate a crown moiety and a pyridine head unit
[Abstract] The coordinative properties towards lead(II) of two lateral macrobicyclic receptors that incorporate either a 1,10‐diaza‐[15]crown‐5 (L7) or a 4,13‐diaza‐[18]crown‐6 (L8) fragment are reported. Spectrophotometric titrations performed in acetonitrile solution indicate only the formation of mononuclear complexes in solution. The X‐ray crystal structures of the two receptors show that the conformation adopted by the ligand is imposed by the presence of intramolecular hydrogen‐bonding interactions that involve the secondary amine groups and the pivotal nitrogen atoms. The solid‐state structure of [Pb(L7)(NCS)](SCN)·0.5H2O shows that the metal ion is asymmetrically coordinated inside the macrobicyclic cavity. The PbII ion is coordinated to the nitrogen atom of the pyridine unit, the two secondary amine atoms, two oxygen atoms of the crown moiety, and a nitrogen atom of an isothiocyanate group. The distances between the PbII ion and the two pivotal nitrogen atoms as well as one of the oxygen atoms of the crown moiety are too long (>2.92 Å) to be considered unequivocal bonds, and should be regarded only as weak interactions. The protonation constants of L7 and L8 as well as the stability constants of their PbII complexes were investigated by using potentiometric titrations in 95 % methanol (I = 0.1 M, nBu4NClO4, 25 °C). The two receptors undergo two protonation processes in the pH range investigated (2.0 < pH < 12.0), which correspond to the protonation of the nitrogen atoms of the oxa–aza moiety. The log KPbL value obtained for L7 [9.906(1)] is approximately 1.1 log K units higher than the one determined for L8 [8.75(1)].Xunta de Galicia; PGIDIT06TAM10301PRXunta de Galicia; INCITE09E1R103013E
Primeros registros de la herpetofauna en dos áreas naturales protegidas de la provincia de Santiago del Estero (Argentina)
First herpetofauna record of two protected areas of Santiago del Estero province (Argentina) Dry Chaco ecoregion is one of the largest remnants of dry forest in Latin America and has a very diverse herpetofauna. However, further studies are required for a deep knowledge of its composition and structure. Our objective was to perform an inventory of the herpetofauna in two natural areas of Dry Chaco of Santiago del Estero: Caburé Sur and Parque Provincial Copo.
In the two protected areas we recorded 21 and 25 species of anurans and reptiles, respectively.
According to the last Argentinean conservation assessment we found one threatened and five vulnerable species of reptiles in both protected areas. The inventory revealed that herpetofauna of the two protected areas of Santiago del Estero contains about 60% of the Dry Chaco herpetofauna. We report the presence of three new species for Santiago del Estero: Kentropyx viridistriga, Teius oculatus and Stenocercus doellojuradoi. We provide new information for future research and conservation actions on this ecoregion.Asociación Herpetológica Argentina (AHA
Geometry of the Proximal Phalanx of Hallux and First Metatarsal Bone to Predict Hallux Abducto Valgus: A Radiological Study
[Abstract] Background
Hallux abducto valgus (HAV) is one of the most common forefoot deformities in adulthood with a variable prevalence but has been reported as high as 48%. The study proposed that HAV development involves a skeletal parameter of the first metatarsal bone and proximal phalanx hallux (PPH) to determine if the length measurements of the metatarsal and PPH can be used to infer adult HAV.
Methods
All consecutive patients over 21 years of age with HAV by roentgenographic evaluation were included in a cross-sectional study. The control group included patients without HAV. The study included 160 individuals. We identified and assessed the following radiographic measurements to evaluate HAV: the distances from the medial (LDM), central (LDC), and lateral (LDL) aspects of the base to the corresponding regions of the head of the PPH. The difference between the medial and lateral aspect of PPH was also calculated.
Results
The reliability of the variables measured in 40 radiographic films show perfect reliability ranging from 0.941 to 1 with a small error ranging from 0.762 to 0. Also, there were no systematic errors between the two measurements for any variable (P > 0.05). The LDM PPH showed the highest reliability and lowest error.
Conclusion
It is more suitable to measure the LDM PPH instead of the LDC PPH when calculating the hallux valgus angle based on our reliability results. When the differences of the medial and lateral PPH are greater, the risk for developing HAV increases
