Analysis of the narrative and pictorial expression of future teachers

Las creencias e ideas implícitas sobre la educación influyen en la práctica educativa del profesorado (Pontes Pedrajas, Poyato López y Oliva Martínez, 2017: 57). Por tanto, es esencial analizar desde una perspectiva psico-socio-educativa la percepción que, sobre la educación, tienen los futuros profesionales de la educación. El objetivo principal de este trabajo, es analizar (relatos escritos y expresiones pictóricas) cuáles son algunas de las creencias sobre la educación, que tienen los futuros maestros y maestras de educación infantil, al iniciar su formación. Este estudio parte de una metodología de investigación cualitativa, donde se tomaron como ejes del análisis, los relatos escritos y las representaciones pictóricas realizadas por alumnado universitario sobre su etapa educativa de educación infantil. La información fue registrada a lo largo de este curso académico 2018/2019, en el que participaron 78 estudiantes de la Universidad de Sevilla. Este trabajo analiza de forma exploratoria y descriptiva los contenidos narrativos y las representaciones pictóricas que expone este alumnado. Tomando como ejes fundamentales los siguientes: 1. Concepto de educación y valores psico-socio-educativos que se realzan como importantes en la etapa de educación infantil. 2. Actividades de educación infantil que se resaltan de forma escrita a partir de las experiencias educativas propias de cada alumna o alumno. 3. Aspectos psico-socio-educativos de dibujos y representaciones de educación infantil. En los resultados se avanzan ideas que pueden ser de utilidad para explorarlas con docentes en formación, sobre la relación de las propias experiencias educativas y las proyecciones de los procesos educativos para el ejercicio de la actividad docente. Y en la discusión, se expone la importancia de poder hacer este trabajo de análisis narrativo y pictórico desde una perspectiva transdisciplinar.Implicit beliefs and ideas about education influence the educational practice of teachers (Pontes Pedrajas, Poyato López and Oliva Martínez, 2017: 57). Therefore, it is essential to analyze, from a psycho-socio-educational perspective, the perception that future educating professionals have about education. The main objective of this work is to analyze (short stories and pictorial expressions) what are some of the beliefs about education that future pre-school teachers have when they start their education. This study is based on a qualitative research methodology, where the short stories and the pictorial representations made by university students about their educational stage of pre-school education have been taken as axes of the analysis. The information has been registered throughout this academic year 2018/2019, in which 78 students from the University of Seville have participated. In this work the narrative contents and the pictorial representations that the student body exposes are analyzed in an exploratory and descriptive way. Taking as fundamental axes the following: 1. Concept of education and psycho-educational values that are highlighted as important in the pre-school education stage. 2. Pre-school education activities that are emphasized in written form based on the educational experiences of each student. 3. Psycho-socio-educational aspects of drawings and representations of pre-school education. The results show progress in ideas that may be useful to explore with teachers in training, on the relationship of their own educational experiences and the projections of educational processes for the exercise of teaching. And in the discussion, the importance of doing this work of narrative and pictorial analysis from a transdisciplinary perspective is exposed.peerReviewe

Formación integral de educadores y docentes desde una perspectiva psicosocioeducativa

Among the purposes of the Spanish Educational System, we find “the full development of the personality and the abilities of the students” (MECD, 2013. art.2) that is, contribute to its integral growth. This same regulation contemplates that “public services will provide primary attention to teacher training”. But, are educators and teachers really being trained in an integral way? From this arises our approach considering that this training is currently not contemplated as such in the study plans of future teachers in Spanish universities.This paper explains how the Enneagram has been integrated, as part of a university education in a transversal way (during the academic courses 2017/18 and 2018/19), in the Degree in Early Childhood Education and in the MAES (CEU Cardenal Spínola CEU - University of Seville) and the Degree in Social Education (Pablo de Olavide University of Seville) included as content in various subjects. The main objective of this study is to analyze the validation and perception that our student body show when discovering and working with a new tool that help them get to know each other and perceive the other’s reality from a different perspective. The procedure in the classroom has been made with theoretical contributions and introspection dynamics facilitating individual and group communication. In this work, a qualitative methodology is used where the information recorded in questionnaires, diaries, reflections and individual interviews with the participating students (a total of 110) is analyzed. The results indicate that there is a strong interest to know more about this tool and go into more depth, since this training process has led to the awareness of the need for development, both personally and professionally. The discussion of these results, revolves around discovering how Enneagram and other tools- that provide a better understanding-, work.Entre las finalidades del Sistema Educativo Español, se encuentra “el pleno desarrollo de la personalidad y de las capacidades de los alumnos” (MECD, 2013 art.2) es decir, contribuir a su crecimiento integral. Esta misma normativa contempla que “los poderes públicos prestarán atención prioritaria a la formación del profesorado”. Pero ¿realmente se está formando a los educadores y docentes de manera integral? De aquí surge nuestro planteamiento ya que dicha formación, actualmente no se contempla como tal en los planes de estudio de los futuros docentes en las universidades españolas. En este trabajo se explicita cómo se ha integrado el enneagrama, como parte de una formación universitaria de manera transversal (durante los cursos académicos 2017/18 y 2018/19), en el Grado de Educación Infantil y en el MAES (CEU Cardenal Spínola CEU-Universidad de Sevilla) y en el Grado de Educación Social (Facultad de Ciencias Sociales. Universidad Pablo de Olavide de Sevilla) incluyéndose como contenido en diversas materias. El objetivo principal de este estudio es analizar la valoración y percepción que muestra el alumnado al descubrir y trabajar con una nueva herramienta que los ayuda a conocerse y percibir la realidad del otro desde una perspectiva diferente. El procedimiento en el aula se ha realizado con aportaciones teóricas y dinámicas de introspección, facilitando la comunicación individual y grupal. En este trabajo se utiliza una metodología cualitativa donde se analiza la información registrada en: cuestionarios, diarios, reflexiones y entrevistas individuales con el alumnado participante (un total de 110).Los resultados indican que hay un fuerte interés por conocer más la herramienta y profundizaren ella, pues este proceso formativo ha llevado a tomar conciencia de la necesidad de crecimiento,tanto en el plano personal como en el profesional. La discusión de estos resultados, gira en torno adescubrir cómo se trabajan el enneagrama y otras herramientas que, ayudan a una comprensiónmayor que va desde lo singular a lo grupal

IgG4-related disease: results from a multicenter Spanish registry

IgG4-related disease (IgG4-RD) is a rare entity consisting of inflammation and fibrosis that has been described in multiple organs. Concrete diagnostic criteria have been established recently and there is a lack of large series of patients.To describe the clinical presentation, histopathological characteristics, treatment and evolution of a series of IgG4-RD Spanish patients.A retrospective multicenter study was performed. Twelve hospitals across Spain included patients meeting the current 2012 consensus criteria on IgG4-RD diagnosis.Fifty-five patients were included in the study, 38 of whom (69.1%) were male. Median age at diagnosis was 53 years. Thirty (54.5%) patients were included in the Histologically Highly Suggestive IgG4-RD group and 25 (45.5%) in the probable IgG4-RD group. Twenty-six (47.3%) patients had more than 1 organ affected at presentation. The most frequently affected organs were: retroperitoneum, orbital pseudotumor, pancreas, salivary and lachrymal glands, and maxillary sinuses.Corticosteroids were the mainstay of treatment (46 patients, 83.6%). Eighteen patients (32.7%) required additional immunosuppressive agents. Twenty-four (43.6%) patients achieved a complete response and 26 (43.7%) presented a partial response (<50% of regression) after 22 months of follow-up. No deaths were attributed directly to IgG4-RD and malignancy was infrequent.This is the largest IgG4-RD series reported in Europe. Patients were middle-aged males, with histologically probable IgG4-RD. The systemic form of the disease was frequent, involving mainly sites of the head and abdomen. Corticosteroids were an effective first line treatment, sometimes combined with immunosuppressive agents. Neither fatalities nor malignancies were attributed to IgG4-RD

Esta investigación describe la relación con las drogas de una muestra de 286 Adolescentes en Conflicto con la Ley de la ciudad de Valencia (España). Tiene por objeto analizar relación entre trayectoria delictiva y consumo de drogas. Los resultados informan que a mayor incidencia delictiva, mayor dependencia. En cuanto a patrones de consumo por tipo de sustancia, el cannabis se asocia a trayectorias delictivas iniciales y la cocaína a trayectorias consolidadas. El consumo se produce en escenarios habituales diurnos, se extiende a otros de ocio nocturno, y particularmente forma parte de la vida cotidiana de los adolescentes en conflicto con la ley de trayectoria consolidada

Bronchoscopist's perception of the quality of the single-use bronchoscope (Ambu aScope4™) in selected bronchoscopies: a multicenter study in 21 Spanish pulmonology services

Background: The disposable bronchoscope is an excellent alternative to face the problem of SARS-CoV-2 and other cross infections, but the bronchoscopist’s perception of its quality has not been evaluated. Methods: To evaluate the quality of the Ambu-aScope4 disposable bronchoscope, we carried out a cross-sectional study in 21 Spanish pulmonology services. We use a standardized questionnaire completed by the bronchoscopists at the end of each bronchoscopy. The variables were described with absolute and relative frequencies, measures of cen‑ tral tendency and dispersion depending on their nature. The existence of learning curves was evaluated by CUSUM analysis. Results: The most frequent indications in 300 included bronchoscopies was bronchial aspiration in 69.3% and the median duration of these was 9.1 min. The route of entry was nasal in 47.2% and oral in 34.1%. The average score for ease of use, image, and aspiration quality was 80/100. All the planned techniques were performed in 94.9% and the bronchoscopist was satisfed in 96.6% of the bronchoscopies. They highlighted the portability and immediacy of the aScope4TM to start the procedure in 99.3%, the possibility of taking and storing images in 99.3%. The CUSUM analysis showed average scores>70/100 from the frst procedure and from the 9th procedure more than 80% of the scores exceeded the 80/100 score

Natural History of MYH7-Related Dilated Cardiomyopathy

BACKGROUND Variants in myosin heavy chain 7 (MYH7) are responsible for disease in 1% to 5% of patients with dilated cardiomyopathy (DCM); however, the clinical characteristics and natural history of MYH7-related DCM are poorly described. OBJECTIVES We sought to determine the phenotype and prognosis of MYH7-related DCM. We also evaluated the influence of variant location on phenotypic expression. METHODS We studied clinical data from 147 individuals with DCM-causing MYH7 variants (47.6% female; 35.6 +/- 19.2 years) recruited from 29 international centers. RESULTS At initial evaluation, 106 (72.1%) patients had DCM (left ventricular ejection fraction: 34.5% +/- 11.7%). Median follow-up was 4.5 years (IQR: 1.7-8.0 years), and 23.7% of carriers who were initially phenotype-negative developed DCM. Phenotypic expression by 40 and 60 years was 46% and 88%, respectively, with 18 patients (16%) first diagnosed at <18 years of age. Thirty-six percent of patients with DCM met imaging criteria for LV noncompaction. During follow-up, 28% showed left ventricular reverse remodeling. Incidence of adverse cardiac events among patients with DCM at 5 years was 11.6%, with 5 (4.6%) deaths caused by end-stage heart failure (ESHF) and 5 patients (4.6%) requiring heart transplantation. The major ventricular arrhythmia rate was low (1.0% and 2.1% at 5 years in patients with DCM and in those with LVEF of <= 35%, respectively). ESHF and major ventricular arrhythmia were significantly lower compared with LMNA-related DCM and similar to DCM caused by TTN truncating variants. CONCLUSIONS MYH7-related DCM is characterized by early age of onset, high phenotypic expression, low left ventricular reverse remodeling, and frequent progression to ESHF. Heart failure complications predominate over ventricular arrhythmias, which are rare. (C) 2022 The Authors. Published by Elsevier on behalf of the American College of Cardiology Foundation

Clonal chromosomal mosaicism and loss of chromosome Y in elderly men increase vulnerability for SARS-CoV-2

The pandemic caused by severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2, COVID-19) had an estimated overall case fatality ratio of 1.38% (pre-vaccination), being 53% higher in males and increasing exponentially with age. Among 9578 individuals diagnosed with COVID-19 in the SCOURGE study, we found 133 cases (1.42%) with detectable clonal mosaicism for chromosome alterations (mCA) and 226 males (5.08%) with acquired loss of chromosome Y (LOY). Individuals with clonal mosaic events (mCA and/or LOY) showed a 54% increase in the risk of COVID-19 lethality. LOY is associated with transcriptomic biomarkers of immune dysfunction, pro-coagulation activity and cardiovascular risk. Interferon-induced genes involved in the initial immune response to SARS-CoV-2 are also down-regulated in LOY. Thus, mCA and LOY underlie at least part of the sex-biased severity and mortality of COVID-19 in aging patients. Given its potential therapeutic and prognostic relevance, evaluation of clonal mosaicism should be implemented as biomarker of COVID-19 severity in elderly people. Among 9578 individuals diagnosed with COVID-19 in the SCOURGE study, individuals with clonal mosaic events (clonal mosaicism for chromosome alterations and/or loss of chromosome Y) showed an increased risk of COVID-19 lethality
