El jazz y su pasado en una herramienta actoral : una fusión interdisciplinaria entre la música y el teatro

En esta investigación, se revaloriza al género jazz desde su aplicación en el desarrollo del laboratorio de tesis de licenciatura con mención en teatro a llevarse a cabo por los propios investigadores del presente estudio. Es así que, desde un enfoque ético, se aborda al género musical para su utilización de manera respetuosa, evitando caer en la apropiación cultural y generando una fusión interdisciplinaria. En el presente estudio se explica el aporte del jazz y su trasfondo histórico; se examina de qué manera la música aporta en el teatro para la creación de una herramienta que entrene el timing actoral; y, por último, se propone un abordaje al género jazz como un estímulo para una herramienta actoral generando una fusión interdisciplinaria, evitando caer en la apropiación cultural. La investigación se sustenta en estudios previos que abarcan las aristas del tema. Entre ellos, se cuentan con las investigaciones de Barraza et al. (1985), Morgan (2017), y Rodríguez (2018), que explican el trasfondo histórico-político del jazz. Por otro lado, Martínez (2010) y Gioia (2012), exponen los subgéneros del jazz y su impacto en la sociedad estadounidense. Por último, Subercasseaux (1988) y Zagalaz y Olaya (2012), explican la apropiación cultural y el término de fusión, respectivamente, para relacionarlo con una interdisciplinariedad entre la música y el teatro. A raíz del análisis de las fuentes históricas y culturales, se llega a la conclusión de que se puede valorar al jazz, dentro del desarrollo de una herramienta actoral, reafirmando la pertenencia del género a la población afroamericana mediante la exposición de los hechos históricos, y potenciando su impacto en la herramienta al incorporar los principios de desarrollo de identidad e individualidad en las y los intérpretes.In this research, the jazz genre is revalued from its application in the development of the undergraduate thesis laboratory with a major in theater to be carried out by the researchers of the present study. Thus, from an ethical approach, the musical genre is approached for its use in a respectful way, avoiding falling into cultural appropriation and generating an interdisciplinary fusion. The present study explains the contribution of jazz and its historical background; it examines how music contributes to theater for the creation of a tool that trains acting timing; and, finally, an approach to the jazz genre is proposed as a stimulus for an acting tool generating an interdisciplinary, avoiding falling into cultural appropriation. The research is based on previous studies that cover the edges of the subject. Among them are the investigations of Barraza et al. (1985), Morgan (2017), and Rodríguez (2018), which explain the historicalpolitical background of jazz. On the other hand, Martínez (2010) and Gioia (2012), expose the jazz subgenres and their impacto n American society. Finally, Subercasseaux (1988) and Zagalaz & Olaya (2012), explain cultural appropriation and the term of fusion, respectively, to relate it to an interdisciplinary nature between music and theater. As a result of the analysis of historical and cultural sources, it is concluded that jazz can be valued, within the development of an acting tool, reaffirming the belonging of the genre to the Afro-American population by exposing historical facts, and enhancing its impact on the tool by incorporating the principles of identity development and individuality in the interpreters

Treatment decision-making in chronic lymphocytic leukaemia: Key factors for healthcare professionals. PRELIC study

Objective: To explore the preferences of Spanish healthcare professionals (haematologists and hospital pharmacists) for the treatment selection of active Chronic Lymphocytic Leukaemia (CLL) patients at first relapse, condition that mainly afflicts older adults. Methods: A discrete choice experiment (DCE) was conducted among haematologists and hospital pharmacists. A literature review and a focus group informed the DCE design. CLL treatment settings were defined by seven attributes: four patient/disease-related attributes (age, functional status, comorbidities, and risk of the disease) and three treatment-related attributes (efficacy [hazard ratio of progression-free survival, HR-PFS], rate of discontinuations due to adverse events and cost). A mixed-logit model was used to determine choice-based preferences. Relative importance (RI) of attributes was calculated and compared between stakeholders. Willingnessto-pay (WTP) was estimated through the DCE. Besides, nine ad-hoc questions were posed, to explore more in depth CLL treatment decision making. Results: A total of 130 participants (72 haematologists and 58 hospital pharmacists) answered the DCE. All attributes were significant predictors of preferences (p b 0.05) in the multinomial model. Higher RI was obtained for treatment-related attributes: the highest rated being ‘cost’ (23.8%) followed by ‘efficacy’ (20.9%). Regarding patient-related attributes, the highest RI was obtained for ‘age’ (18.1%). No significant differences (p N 0.05) in RI between haematologists and pharmacists were found. WTP for the treatment was higher for younger CLL patients. Ad-hoc questions showed that patient age and functional status influence treatment decisions. Conclusions: For healthcare professionals, ‘cost’ and ‘efficacy’ (treatment-related attributes) and age (patientrelated attribute) are the m

The contribution of fenfluramine to the treatment of Dravet syndrome in Spain through Multi-Criteria Decision Analysis

Introduction: Dravet Syndrome (DS) is a severe, developmental epileptic encephalopathy (DEE) that begins in infancy and is characterized by pharmaco-resistant epilepsy and neurodevelopmental delay. Despite available antiseizure medications (ASMs), there is a need for new therapeutic options with greater efficacy in reducing seizure frequency and with adequate safety and tolerability profiles.Fenfluramine is a new ASM for the treatment of seizures associated with DS as add-on therapy to other ASMs for patients aged 2 years and older. Fenfluramine decreases seizure frequency, prolongs periods of seizure freedom potentially helping to reduce risk of Sudden Unexpected Death in Epilepsy (SUDEP) and improves patient cognitive abilities positively impacting on patients' Quality of Life (QoL).Reflective Multi-Criteria Decision Analysis (MCDA) methodology allows to determine what represents value in a given indication considering all relevant criteria for healthcare decision-making in a transparent and systematic manner from the perspective of relevant stakeholders. The aim of this study was to determine the relative value contribution of fenfluramine for the treatment of DS in Spain using MCDA.Method: A literature review was performed to populate an adapted a MCDA framework for orphan-drug evaluation in Spain. A panel of ten Spanish experts, including neurologists, hospital pharmacists, patient representatives and decision-makers, scored four comparative evidence matrices.Results were analyzed and discussed in a group meeting through reflective MCDA discussion methodology. Results: Dravet syndrome is considered a severe, rare disease with significant unmet needs. Fenfluramine is perceived to have a higher efficacy profile than all available alternatives, with a better safety profile than stiripentol and topiramate and to provide improved QoL versus studied alternatives. Fenfluramine results in lower other medical costs in comparison with stiripentol and clobazam. Participants perceived that fenfluramine could lead to indirect costs savings compared to available alternatives due to its efficacy in controlling seizures. Overall, fenfluramine's therapeutic impact on patients with DS is considered high and supported by high-quality evidence.Conclusions: Based on reflective MCDA, fenfluramine is considered to add greater benefit in terms of effi-cacy, safety and QoL when compared with available ASMs.(c) 2022 The Authors.

Género, soberanía alimentaria y maíz en el Istmo de Tehuantepec, México

El presente artículo estudia el papel de las mujeres en la defensa de la soberanía alimentaria a través del uso y conservación del Zapalote Chico, una raza de maíz (Zea mays L.) que solo se cultiva en el Istmo de Tehuantepec, Oaxaca, México. El análisis es realizado desde la perspectiva de la interseccionalidad de género y masculinidad con la finalidad de develar cómo el cambio ambiental conduce a la reconfiguración del sistema de género y recrea nuevas desigualdades basadas en diferencias de clase social, etnia y edad. Los datos fueron recabados mediante observación participante, entrevistas abiertas, talleres, reuniones comunitarias y una encuesta. Se argumenta que las mujeres enfrentan crecientes dificultades para elaborar alimentos con este tipo de maíz debido a dos procesos macroestructurales que han transformado la región. El primero es la ganaderización del territorio y el segundo la ocupación de este por empresas transnacionales que producen energía eólica. A pesar de ello, las mujeres continúan siendo pieza clave en la cadena de producción, transformación y comercialización del Zapalote Chico. Se concluye que cualquier propuesta de rescate de este valioso material genético tiene que pasar primero por mejorar el estatus social de las mujeres, sus principales custodias, para ser efectivo

Circum-Mediterranean cultural heritage and medicial plant uses in traditional animal healthcare: a field survey in eight selected areas within the RUBIA project

During the years 2003¿2005, a comparative ethnobotanical field survey was conducted on remedies used in traditional animal healthcare in eight Mediterranean areas. The study sites were selected within the EU-funded RUBIA project, and were as follows: the upper Kelmend Province of Albania; the Capannori area in Eastern Tuscany and the Bagnocavallo area of Romagna, Italy; Cercle de Ouezanne, Morocco; Sierra de Aracena y Picos de Aroche Natural Park in the province of Huelva, Spain; the St. Catherine area of the Sinai Peninsula, Egypt; Eastern and Western Crete, Greece; the Paphos and Larnaca areas of Cyprus; and the Mitidja area of Algeria. One hundred and thirty-six veterinary preparations and 110 plant taxa were recorded in the survey, with Asteraceae and Lamiaceae being the most quoted botanical families. For certain plant species the survey uncovered veterinary phytotherapeutical indications that were very uncommon, and to our knowledge never recorded before. These include Anabasis articulata (Chenopodiaceae), Cardopatium corymbosum (Asteraceae), Lilium martagon (Liliaceae), Dorycnium rectum (Fabaceae), Oenanthe pimpinelloides (Apiaceae), Origanum floribundum (Lamiaceae), Tuberaria lignosa (Cistaceae), and Dittrichia graveolens (Asteraceae). These phytotherapeutical indications are briefly discussed in this report, taking into account modern phytopharmacology and phytochemistry. The percentage of overall botanical veterinary taxa recorded in all the study areas was extremely low (8%), however when all taxa belonging to the same botanical genus are considered, this portion increases to 17%. Nevertheless, very few plant uses were found to be part of a presumed "Mediterranean" cultural heritage in veterinary practices, which raises critical questions about the concept of Mediterraneanism in ethnobotany and suggests that further discussion is required. Nearly the half of the recorded veterinary plant uses for mammals uncovered in this survey have also been recorded in the same areas in human folk medicine, suggesting a strong link between human and veterinary medical practices, and perhaps also suggesting the adaptive origins of a few medical practices. Since most of the recorded data concern remedies for treating cattle, sheep, goats, and camels, it would be interesting to test a few of the recorded phytotherapeuticals in the future, to see if they are indeed able to improve animal healthcare in breeding environments, or to raise the quality of dairy and meat products in the absence of classical, industrial, veterinary pharmaceuticals
