Multivariate Statistical Network Monitoring-Sensor: An effective tool for real-time monitoring and anomaly detection in complex networks and systems

Technology evolves quickly. Low-cost and ready-to-connect devices are designed to provide new services and applications. Smart grids or smart health care systems are some examples of these applications. In this totally connected scenario, some security issues arise due to the large number of devices and communications. In this way, new solutions for monitoring and detecting security events are needed to address new challenges brought about by this scenario, among others, the real-time requirement allowing quick security event detection and, consequently, quick response to attacks. In this sense, Intrusion Detection Systems are widely used though their evaluation often relies on the use of predefined network datasets that limit their application in real environments. In this work, a real-time and ready-to-use tool for monitoring and detecting security events is introduced. The Multivariate Statistical Network Monitoring-Sensor is based on the Multivariate Statistical Network Monitoring methodology and provides an alternative way for evaluating Multivariate Statistical Network Monitoring-based Intrusion Detection System solutions. Experimental results based on the detection of well-known attacks in hierarchical network systems prove the suitability of this tool for complex scenarios, such as those found in smart cities or Internet of Things ecosystem

A Model-Driven Approach for Wearable Systems Developments

This paper proposes a model-driven approach for developing high-level software interfaces that allow developers to interact with wearable devices easily. These components hide the heterogeneity of the devices interfaces and provide developers with a simple and homogeneous way to interoperate with these digital peripherals. The use of this approach also allows reducing risks and development efforts.This work has been partially funded by the Facultad de Educación, Economía y Tecnología de Ceuta under the “Contrato-Programa” of research for the period 2013–2015. This work has also been supported by Fondecyt (Chile), Grant no. 1150252. The authors would also like to acknowledge input from COST Action AAPELE (IC1303)

General Architecture for Development of Virtual Coaches for Healthy Habits Monitoring and Encouragement

Good health is the result of a healthy lifestyle, where caring about physical activity and nutrition are key concerns. However, in today’s society, nutritional disorders are becoming increasingly frequent, affecting children, adults, and elderly people, mainly due to limited nutrition knowledge and the lack of a healthy lifestyle. A commonly adopted therapy to these imbalances is to monitor physical activity and daily habits, such as recording exercise or creating custom meal plans to count the amount of macronutrients and micronutrients acquired in each meal. Nowadays, many health tracking applications (HTA) have been developed that, for instance, record energy intake as well as users’ physiological parameters, or measure the physical activity during the day. However, most existing HTA do not have a uniform architectural design on top of which to build other applications and services. In this manuscript, we present system architecture intended to serve as a reference architecture for building HTA solutions. In order to validate the proposed architecture, we performed a preliminary evaluation with 15 well recognized experts in systems and software architecture from different entities around world and who have estimated that our proposal can generate architecture for HTA that is adequate, reliable, secure, modifiable, portable, functional, and with high conceptual integrity. In order to show the applicability of the architecture in different HTA, we developed two telemonitoring systems based on it, targeted to different tasks: nutritional coaching (Food4Living) and physical exercise coaching (TrainME). The purpose was to illustrate the kind of end-user monitoring applications that could be developed. Keywords: telemonitoring; healthy habits; virtual coaches; system

Mujer joven asmática con disnea de etiología muy inusual

We present the case of a 36-year-old woman with a history of bronchial asthma who presented progressive dyspnea without improvement, despite intensive steroid and bronchodilator treatment. In view of the multiple consultations in the Emergency Room, admission to Internal Medicine was decided for study. After the initial approach, and always focused on his asthmatic background, it was a surprise to find the true cause of dyspnea: an infiltrating malignant cardiac tumor of the left atrium of sarcomatous lineage, which despite being operated on, led the patient to death.Presentamos el caso de una mujer de 36 años con antecedentes de asma bronquial que presentó un cuadro de disnea progresiva sin mejoría, a pesar de tratamiento esteroideo y broncodilatador intensivo. Ante las múltiples consultas en Urgencias, se decidió ingreso en Medicina Interna para estudio. Tras el estudio inicial, y siempre enfocado por su antecedente asmático, fue una sorpresa encontrar la verdadera causa de la disnea: un tumor cardíaco maligno infiltrante de aurícula izquierda de estirpe sarcomatosa que, a pesar de ser intervenido, condujo a la paciente a la muerte

Implantación de la metodología de clase al revés en una asignatura de programación y diseño orientado a objetos: análisis comparativo preliminar

En los últimos años se está popularizando en las aulas universitarias la implantación de la metodología docente conocida como “clase al revés”. En este trabajo se presenta un estudio aplicado a una asignatura de programación y diseño orientado a objetos, donde se han comparado los resultados de la implantación de esta metodología frente a los resultados obtenidos con un modelo de docencia más tradicional. Durante el primer semestre del curso académico 2021/2022, la asignatura se ha impartido en tres grupos diferentes (con un total de 253 estudiantes) utilizando una metodología distinta en cada grupo: 1) metodología tradicional, basada principalmente en la lección magistral; 2) clase al revés; y 3) clase al revés apoyada en instrucción entre pares. Se han recopilado y analizado las tasas de asistencia a clase, de rendimiento académico, los datos de la participación en las actividades previas planteadas en la clase al revés, la participación en las actividades de aprendizaje entre pares en el aula y la opinión de los estudiantes sobre las metodologías utilizadas. Los resultados más destacados indican que la clase al revés favorece la implicación en clase, lo que redunda en unas mejores tasas tanto de presentados como de rendimiento.In recent years, the “flipped classroom” methodology has become popular in higher education. This paper presents a study within a subject of object-oriented programming and design, where the results of the implementation of this methodology have been compared with those obtained with a more traditional teaching model. During the first semester of the 2021/2022 academic year, the subject has been taught in three different groups (with a total of 253 students) using a different methodology in each group: 1) traditional methodology, based mainly on master class; 2) flipped classroom; and 3) flipped classroom supported by peer instruction. Class attendance rates, academic performance, participation in previous activities in the flipped classroom, participation in peer learning activities in the classroom, and students' opinions on the methodologies used have been collected and analyzed. Our results indicate that the flipped classroom favors involvement in class, which results in better rates both in terms of attendance and performance

Effectiveness of an intervention for improving drug prescription in primary care patients with multimorbidity and polypharmacy:Study protocol of a cluster randomized clinical trial (Multi-PAP project)

This study was funded by the Fondo de Investigaciones Sanitarias ISCIII (Grant Numbers PI15/00276, PI15/00572, PI15/00996), REDISSEC (Project Numbers RD12/0001/0012, RD16/0001/0005), and the European Regional Development Fund ("A way to build Europe").Background: Multimorbidity is associated with negative effects both on people's health and on healthcare systems. A key problem linked to multimorbidity is polypharmacy, which in turn is associated with increased risk of partly preventable adverse effects, including mortality. The Ariadne principles describe a model of care based on a thorough assessment of diseases, treatments (and potential interactions), clinical status, context and preferences of patients with multimorbidity, with the aim of prioritizing and sharing realistic treatment goals that guide an individualized management. The aim of this study is to evaluate the effectiveness of a complex intervention that implements the Ariadne principles in a population of young-old patients with multimorbidity and polypharmacy. The intervention seeks to improve the appropriateness of prescribing in primary care (PC), as measured by the medication appropriateness index (MAI) score at 6 and 12months, as compared with usual care. Methods/Design: Design:pragmatic cluster randomized clinical trial. Unit of randomization: family physician (FP). Unit of analysis: patient. Scope: PC health centres in three autonomous communities: Aragon, Madrid, and Andalusia (Spain). Population: patients aged 65-74years with multimorbidity (≥3 chronic diseases) and polypharmacy (≥5 drugs prescribed in ≥3months). Sample size: n=400 (200 per study arm). Intervention: complex intervention based on the implementation of the Ariadne principles with two components: (1) FP training and (2) FP-patient interview. Outcomes: MAI score, health services use, quality of life (Euroqol 5D-5L), pharmacotherapy and adherence to treatment (Morisky-Green, Haynes-Sackett), and clinical and socio-demographic variables. Statistical analysis: primary outcome is the difference in MAI score between T0 and T1 and corresponding 95% confidence interval. Adjustment for confounding factors will be performed by multilevel analysis. All analyses will be carried out in accordance with the intention-to-treat principle. Discussion: It is essential to provide evidence concerning interventions on PC patients with polypharmacy and multimorbidity, conducted in the context of routine clinical practice, and involving young-old patients with significant potential for preventing negative health outcomes.
