Diseño curricular y extensión: la incorporación de un espacio dedicado al aprendizaje en servicios en la licenciatura en economía

El trabajo consiste en una breve descripción de los aspectos tenidos en cuenta durante un proceso de cambio de plan de estudios de la Licenciatura en Economía, carrera de grado que se dicta en la Facultad de Ciencias Económicas (FCE) de la Universidad Nacional del Nordeste (UNNE), que incorporó en el nuevo diseño curricular, actividades de ex tensión obligatorias a ser desarrolladas por los estudiantes. El trabajo realizado por la comisión de cambio curricular tomó en con sideración la normativa vigente y el asesoramiento de profesionales con formación en procesos de cambio curricular, estas cuestiones se sintetizan en el artículo haciendo hincapié y profundizando en el análisis crítico del plan modificado. El nuevo plan ha incorporado un espacio curricular denominado práctica profesional basada en servicios. Es un espacio de una carga de 54 horas presenciales, cuya definición e incorporación al plan se ha realizado en base a una alternativa cuya definición e implementación costó acordar.

Para ello se analiza, en primer lugar, la evolución del PGB provincial y del mercado laboral del Gran Resistencia. En segundo lugar, se estudia la evolución de las tasas de desempleo, empleo y actividad. El trabajo se completa a través de un análisis econométrico de la relación tasa de crecimiento/tasa de desempleo, utilizando la “Ley de Okun”, a los fines de observar la incidencia que tiene el crecimiento de la actividad económica sobre el desempleo.The main objective of the present article is to describe the Chaco`s province PGB growth path jointly with its components, to explore the Gran Resistencia`s unem-ployment and employment rates and to relate the product growth with the unemploy-ment rate, specially over the last decade. In first place, analysis of the evolution of PGB and labor market is performed. In second place, the evolution of unemployment, em-ployment and activity rates is studied. The paper is completed through an econometric analysis of the growth rate / un-employment rate relationship, using the “Okun’s Law”, in order to observe the impact of economic activity growth on unemployment

Health and fitness trends in Southern Europe for 2023: A cross-sectional survey

The physical activity, exercise and wellness sector is rapidly growing and seems to be an exciting field for business and professional development with great potential globally. The purpose of this observational and cross-sectional study was to determine the most popular health and fitness trends in Southern Europe for the first time, including data from Italy, Spain, Portugal, Greece and Cyprus, and to investigate any potential differences in this area compared to the Pan-European and global fitness trends for 2023. A national online survey was conducted in five Southern European countries, using the methodology of similar regional and worldwide surveys conducted by the American College of Sports Medicine since 2007. In total, a web-based questionnaire was sent to 19,887 professionals who worked in the Southern European physical activity, exercise and wellness sector. A total of 2645 responses were collected from five national surveys with an overall mean response rate of 13.3%. The ten most important fitness trends in Southern Europe for 2023 were personal training, licensure for fitness professionals, exercise is medicine, employing certified fitness professionals, functional fitness training, small group training, high-intensity interval training, fitness programs for older adults, post-rehabilitation classes and body weight training. The present findings are aligned with those reported for the European and worldwide fitness trends

Second-Generation Non-Covalent NAAA Inhibitors are Protective in a Model of Multiple Sclerosis.

Palmitoylethanolamide (PEA) and oleoylethanolamide (OEA) are endogenous lipid mediators that suppress inflammation. Their actions are terminated by the intracellular cysteine amidase, N-acylethanolamine acid amidase (NAAA). Even though NAAA may offer a new target for anti-inflammatory therapy, the lipid-like structures and reactive warheads of current NAAA inhibitors limit the use of these agents as oral drugs. A series of novel benzothiazole-piperazine derivatives that inhibit NAAA in a potent and selective manner by a non-covalent mechanism are described. A prototype member of this class (8) displays high oral bioavailability, access to the central nervous system (CNS), and strong activity in a mouse model of multiple sclerosis (MS). This compound exemplifies a second generation of non-covalent NAAA inhibitors that may be useful in the treatment of MS and other chronic CNS disorders

The impact of COVID-19 on the well-being and cognition of older adults living in the United States and Latin America.

In the COVID-19 pandemic, older adults from vulnerable ethnoracial groups are at high risk of infection, hospitalization, and death. We aimed to explore the pandemic's impact on the well-being and cognition of older adults living in the United States (US), Argentina, Chile, Mexico, and Peru. 1,608 (646 White, 852 Latino, 77 Black, 33 Asian; 72% female) individuals from the US and four Latin American countries aged ≥ 55 years completed an online survey regarding well-being and cognition during the pandemic between May and September 2020. Outcome variables (pandemic impact, discrimination, loneliness, purpose of life, subjective cognitive concerns) were compared across four US ethnoracial groups and older adults living in Argentina, Chile, Mexico, and Peru. Mean age for all participants was 66.7 ( = 7.7) years and mean education was 15.4 ( = 2.7) years. Compared to Whites, Latinos living in the US reported greater economic impact ( < .001,  = .031); while Blacks reported experiencing discrimination more often ( < .001,  = .050). Blacks and Latinos reported more positive coping ( < .001,  = 040). Compared to Latinos living in the US, Latinos in Chile, Mexico, and Peru reported greater pandemic impact, Latinos in Mexico and Peru reported more positive coping, Latinos in Argentina, Mexico, and Peru had greater economic impact, and Latinos in Argentina, Chile, and Peru reported less discrimination. The COVID-19 pandemic has differentially impacted the well-being of older ethnically diverse individuals in the US and Latin America. Future studies should examine how mediators like income and coping skills modify the pandemic's impact. Massachusetts General Hospital Department of Psychiatry
