    El presente trabajo tiene como finalidad conocer las causas y consecuencias de la violencia intrafamiliar de las mujeres y sus hijos que se encuentran acogidos en la Casa María Amor durante esta investigación se pudo conocer y comprobar que la principal causa del maltrato intrafamiliar es el alcoholismo, el machismo, por no contar con un trabajo estable de los esposos, etc. Pero la verdadera causa de la violencia intrafamiliar se encuentra en la construcción de género que se hace socialmente. Desde muy temprano se configura al hombre como privilegiado, como poderoso. A la mujer se configura socialmente como delicada, débil, que necesita protección.Licenciada en Trabajo SocialCuenc

    Breast cancer; Breast milkCáncer de mama; Leche maternaCàncer de mama; Llet maternaBreast cancer occurring during pregnancy (PrBC) and postpartum (PPBC) is usually diagnosed at more advanced stages compared with other breast cancer, worsening its prognosis. PPBC is particularly aggressive, with increased metastatic risk and mortality. Thus, effective screening methods to detect early PrBC and PPBC are needed. We report for the first time that cell-free tumor DNA (ctDNA) is present in breast milk (BM) collected from patients with breast cancer. Analysis of ctDNA from BM detects tumor variants in 87% of the cases by droplet digital PCR, while variants remain undetected in 92% of matched plasma samples. Retrospective next-generation sequencing analysis in BM ctDNA recapitulates tumor variants, with an overall clinical sensitivity of 71.4% and specificity of 100%. In two cases, ctDNA was detectable in BM collected 18 and 6 months prior to standard diagnosis. Our results open up the potential use of BM as a new source for liquid biopsy for PPBC detection. Significance: For the first time, we show that BM obtained from patients with breast cancer carries ctDNA, surpassing plasma-based liquid biopsy for detection and molecular profiling of early-stage breast cancer, even prior to diagnosis by image.We thank the patients who participated in the study and donated samples for analysis for their generous contribution, with particular thanks to the first patient, Maite, and her daughter Àneu, who inspired us to initiate this study (oral consent to name the patient and her daughter was provided by the patient, and her legal partner provided written consent after patient's exitus).
