Recursos flexibles para la operación de las redes de distribución y transporte: proyecto CoordiNet

La transición energética requiere de una adecuada coordinación entre el TSO y el DSO para el desarrollo y adquisición de nuevos servicios de flexibilidad en todos los niveles de tensión, a fin de integrar de forma segura y eficiente un volumen creciente de generación renovable en las redes de distribución y transporte. En este sentido, el proyecto CoordiNet está desarrollando diez proyectos de demostración en España, Grecia y Suecia, donde se analizarán diferentes alternativas para la compra de los nuevos productos y servicios de flexibilidad definidos en el proyecto. La presente comunicación presenta en detalle los demostradores españoles, liderados por Endesa y en los que participan Iberdrola y Red Eléctrica de España, además de varias empresas, centros de investigación y universidades.Este proyecto ha recibido financiación del programa de investigación e innovación Horizon 2020 de la Unión Europea en virtud del acuerdo de subvención Nº 824414

Aproximación a los contextos en prisión. Una perspectiva socioeducativa

[ES] Los establecimientos penitenciarios de cumplimiento de pena no sólo son entidades arquitectónicas, administrativas y funcionales del sistema penitenciario, sinoque son contextos ecosistémicos, de socialización y de educación-reeducación de gran importancia, especialmentepara laspersonas internadas. En este trabajo se hace una aproximación a la realidad penitenciaria española, desde una perspectiva socioeducativa de género y, prestando especial atención a la configuracióndel sistema,conelpropósitode conocer su forma de funcionamiento, organización y clasificación, así como analizar los distintos tipos de centros según los regímenes de vida establecidos, la concepciónde los tiempos y los impactosde la vida en prisión, en el marco de una investigación nacional llevada a cabo con mujeres reclusas (Ref. EDU2009-13408). Los métodos de investigación han sido tanto cuantitativos como cualitativos en una muestra de 538 cuestionarios válidos y 61 entrevistas semiestructuradas, observando que los espacios se constituyen como entes vivos que pueden influir en la vida en prisión de manera positiva al favorecer un contexto, un tiempo y una oportunidad socioeducativa, o pueden ser utilizados comomecanismos de segregación, de control de losmovimientos, de poder y para implementar la “separación interior”. Los tiempos de condena, junto con el espacio, inciden en la vivencia y las actitudes que determinan cómo enfrentarse a su realidad y la preparación para su reinserción; así éstos han de ser tenidos en cuenta para la implementación de programas desde lasmúltiples realidades de las/os protagonistas, basados en la evidencia, demodo que sean eficaces, integrales, que prevengan la reincidencia, etc. Además, se dejan abiertas líneas de intervención y problemáticas no resueltas que se erigen como retos o cuestiones pendientes para la administración, la sociedad, los/las reclusos/as y la educación social. [EN] The prisons don´t only represent the architectural, administrative and functional elements of the penal system, but they also are important ecosystem contexts of socialization and education and reeducation, especially for interned people. In this paperwe present an approach to the Spanish prison reality from a gender and social educational perspective. We will highlight espacially the systemconfiguration, in order to knowhowitworks, its organization and classification. For that reasonwe will analyze the different types of centers according to established life schemes, focusing on the conception of time and the impact of life in prison. This investigation is part of a national study conducted with women prisoners (Ref. EDU2009-13408). The research methodology were both quantitative and qualitative in a sample of 538 valid questionnaires and 61 semi-structured interviews, noting that spaces are constituted as living entities that can influence in prison life in a positive way to promote a context, a time anda socio educational opportunity or they may be used as mechanisms of segregation, movement control, and as mechanism of power to implement “internal separation”.Thecondemns times, along with the space, affect the experience and attitudes that determine how to deal with her reality and their preparation of their free life come back, so they have tobe taken into account for the implementation of programs from the multiple realities of the protagonists. They have to be effective, comprehensive, to prevent recidivismand so on. Furthermore, the paper left opened lines of intervention and unsolved issues that stand as challenges and outstanding issues for the administration, the society, the prisoners and social education

Program for the accompaniment of parenting in mothers who are victims of displacement due to the armed conflict in Colombia : design and validation

El conflicto armado en Colombia es una de las problemáticas principales que ha afectado a la población civil, especialmente a las mujeres, quienes debido a las diferentes violaciones a sus derechos humanos se han visto en la obligación de desplazarse de manera forzada de sus tierras, situación que impacta en su salud mental, emocional y en sus dinámicas familiares, lo cual influye en las formas en que estas crían a sus hijos. El objetivo del trabajo fue construir y validar un programa que sirva de apoyo en el proceso de crianza de madres víctimas del desplazamiento por conflicto armado en Colombia. Para tal propósito, se construyeron 5 sesiones que incluyeron los siguientes aspectos: conflicto armado, estilos parentales, crianza positiva, vínculo, emociones y mindfulness. Se utilizó un diseño de corte psicométrico, utilizando el coeficiente de validez de contenido de Hernández-Nieto (2002), con 6 jueces expertos en los temas de interés, los cuales indican que las actividades son adecuadas para el trabajo con madres víctimas del conflicto armado colombiano, referente a la crianza, mostrando así que las sesiones 2, 3, 4 y 5 contaron con validez de contenido y son aptas para su aplicación, mientras que la sesión 1 requirió correcciones dada su menor puntuación.Colombia’s armed conflict is one of the main problems that has affected the civilian population, especially women, whom due to the different violations of their human rights have been forced to move from their lands, a situation that impacts their mental and emotional health, as well as their family dynamics, which influences the ways in which they upbring their children. The purpose of this investigation was to create and validate a program that supports the mother’s upbringing, particularly mothers who are victims of displacement due to the armed conflict in Colombia. For this purpose, 5 sessions were created, which included the following aspects: armed conflict, upbringing, parenting styles, positive parenting, bond between mother and child, emotions and mindfulness. A psychometric design was used, using the content validity coefficient of Hernández-Nieto (2002), with 6 expert judges on the topics of interest, who indicated which activities are suitable for work with mothers victims of the Colombian armed conflict. Referring to the upbringing, thus showing that sessions 2, 3, 4 and 5 had content validity and are suitable for its application, while session 1 required corrections given its lower score.Psicólogo (a)Pregrad

Emergence of community-acquired methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus EMRSA-15 clone as the predominant cause of diabetic foot ulcer infections in Portugal

Methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA) are often found in infected diabetic foot ulcers, in which the prevalence may reach 40%. These complications are one of the main causes of morbidity in diabetic patients. The objectives of this study were to investigate the prevalence and antimicrobial resistance of MRSA strains in infected diabetic foot ulcers and to characterize their genetic lineages. Samples collected from 42 type 2 diabetic patients, presenting infected foot ulcers, were seeded onto ORSAB plates with 2 mg/L of oxacillin for MRSA isolation. Susceptibility to 14 antimicrobial agents was tested by the Kirby-Bauer disk diffusion method. The presence of resistance genes, virulence factors, and the immune evasion cluster system was studied by PCR. All isolates were characterized by MLST, accessory gene regulator (agr), spa, and staphylococcal chromosomal cassette mec (SCCmec) typing. Twenty-five MRSA strains were isolated. All isolates showed resistance to penicillin and cefoxitin. Sixteen isolates showed phenotypic resistance to erythromycin being 7 co-resistant to clindamycin. Resistance to trimethoprim-sulfamethoxazole was found in 2 isolates harboring the dfrA and dfrG genes. The IEC genes were detected in 80% of isolates, 16 of which were ascribed to IEC-type B. Isolates were assigned to 12 different spa types. The MLST analysis grouped the isolates into 7 sequence types being the majority (68%) ascribed to SCCmec type IV. In this study, there was a high prevalence of the EMRSA-15 clone presenting multiple resistances in diabetic foot ulcers making these infections complicated to treat leading to a higher morbidity and mortality in diabetic patients.This work was funded by the R&D Project CAREBIO2 - Comparative assessment of antimicrobial resistance in environmental biofilms through proteomics - towards innovative theranostic biomarkers, with reference NORTE-01-0145-FEDER-030101 and PTDC/SAU-INF/30101/2017, financed by the European Regional Development Fund (ERDF) through the Northern Regional Operational Program (NORTE 2020) and the Foundation for Science and Technology (FCT).
