El reconocimiento de los refugiados en Grecia: las políticas sometidas a examen

Las reformas del sistema de asilo de Grecia mejoraron, en un principio, la ecuanimidad y el grado de independencia de la DCR, pero las reformas posteriores vuelven a plantear interrogantes

Καταγραφή και ανάλυση των ατομικών επιθετικών προσπαθειών των ομάδων Ολυμπιακού και Παο στο πρωτάθλημα γυναικών της περιόδου 2015-16

Το άθλημα της καλαθοσφαίρισης με το πέρασμα των χρόνων γίνεται περισσότερο πολύπλοκο και σύνθετο. Παρόλη την εξέλιξη και την πρόοδο στον τομέα της ταχύτητας, της αλτικότητας, της έκρηξης , της δύναμης κ.λ.π. σταθερά πρωτεύοντα ρόλο παίζει η τεχνική και η τακτική των αθλητών και της ομάδας. Ο κάθε προπονητής προκειμένου να αντιμετωπίσει μία ομάδα χρησιμοποιεί κάποια εργαλεία με στόχο την εφαρμογή της τακτικής. Ένα τέτοιο εργαλείο αποτελεί η βιντεοανάλυση. Μέσω της βιντεοανάλυσης μπορεί να καταγράψει όλες τις ενέργειες των παικτών της αντίπαλης ομάδα με στόχο να ετοιμάσει όσο το δυνατόν καλύτερα τους δικούς του παίκτες για να τους αντιμετωπίσουν. Στην παρούσα έρευνα έγινε σημειογραφική ανάλυση σε 36 αγώνες του πρωταθλήματος της Α1 Γυναικών 2015-2016, με στόχο τη μελέτη των διεισδύσεων, η εξέλιξη των οποίων καταλήγει σε τελική προσπάθεια. Η καταγραφή που έγινε αφορούσε στην περιοχή εκκίνησης, στο είδος σταματήματος, στα είδη της πάσας, στις περιοχές των σουτ, στα είδη των διεισδύσεων.n

Recognising refugees in Greece: policies under scrutiny

Reforms to Greece’s asylum system initially improved the fairness and independence of RSD but subsequent reforms are raising questions once again

Prevalence and Prognostic Factors of Stress Hyperglycemia in a Pediatric Population with Acute Illness in Greece—A Prospective Observational Study

Background: stress hyperglycemia (SH) is a relatively frequent finding in pediatric patients. The purpose of this prospective observational study was to identify the prevalence of pediatric SH and its associated risk factors in Greece. Methods: A total of 1005 patients without diabetes who were admitted consecutively for acute illness in a Pediatric Emergency Department were included in the study. Medical history, anthropometric measurements, blood glucose levels, and the medication administered were recorded. A questionnaire was distributed to parents regarding medical and perinatal history and sociodemographic characteristics. Results: There were 72 cases of SH on admission (7.2%) and 39 (3.9%) during hospitalization. Mean age was 6.4 years; 50.3% were male. SH on admission was associated with oral corticosteroid therapy (21.1% vs. 4.7%, p < 0.001), inhaled corticosteroids (12.7% vs. 3%, p < 0.001), and inhaled β2-agonists (30.6% vs. 10.7%, p < 0.001). In-hospital hyperglycemia was associated with oral corticosteroids (adjusted OR = 3.32), inhaled corticosteroids (OR = 10.03) and inhaled β2-agonists (OR = 5.01). Children with asthma were 5.58 and 7.86 times more likely to present admission and in-hospital hyperglycemia, respectively. Conclusions: This is the first report of SH prevalence in pediatric patients in Greece. Asthma, corticosteroids, and β2-agonists significantly increase the risk of SH. No parental factors seem to predispose to SH

Multimodality imaging approach in a case of vascular toxicity caused by cabozantinib

Vascular toxicity caused by cancer treatment can present as vasospasm, arterial thrombosis, and accelerated atherosclerosis. We report a case of a 60-year-old man with metastatic renal cell carcinoma under cabozantinib treatment for 3 years who presented to the hospital with relapsing episodes of rest angina. Due to the presence of ST depression in the 12-lead electrocardiogram and elevated troponin, a non-ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction was suspected. The patient underwent invasive coronary angiography, which revealed extended coronary artery spasm, and it subsided totally after nitrate administration. One year later, the patient presented again at the cardio-oncology outpatient clinic, reporting relapsing episodes of angina during the previous month. Coronary computed tomography angiography was performed, and it revealed 2 subsequent 70%-99% stenosis in OM1. To our knowledge, this is the first case of a patient treated with cabozantinib presenting with coronary artery spasm and accelerated atherosclerosis, in which a multimodality imaging approach was followed
