La Educación literaria a través de las escritoras: una propuesta de contenidos complementarios para 4º de ESO

En el presente trabajo ofrecemos una propuesta teórica de los contenidos insertados en el bloque de Educación literaria para el curso de 4º de ESO: Introducción a la literatura a través de los textos y Plan lector. Nuestra aportación reside en el planteamiento de dichos contenidos a través de referentes femeninos de la Historia de la Literatura Española. El objetivo de nuestra propuesta es visibilizar a las voces femeninas escasamente incluidas por los libros de texto en la Educación Secundaria Obligatoria y, con ello, facilitar a los docentes su incorporación. Además de la perspectiva de género adoptada en la autoría, nuestra propuesta parte de los principios de transversalidad, interseccionalidad, investigación y epistemología feminista destacados en el Plan estratégico para la igualdad de hombres y mujeres en Aragón (2017-2020).<br /

Multielemental analysis of oils and animal fat by using deep eutectic solvents assisted by an aerosol phase extraction procedure

In the present study, thirteen elements (Ag, Al, Ba, Cd, Cr, Cu, Fe, K, Li, Mg, Mn, Ni, Pb) have been extracted from used cooking oils, olive oils and animal fat. Either inductively coupled plasma optical emission spectrometry (ICP-OES) or tandem mass spectrometry (ICP-MS/MS) have been chosen as detection techniques. Due to the difficulty of directly introducing highly viscous organic samples into the spectrometer, a fast dispersive liquid – liquid aerosol phase extraction (DLLAPE) method has been selected to isolate the analytes from the sample matrix. The DLLAPE is based on the generation of an aerosol from the extracting phase with the help of a pneumatic nebulizer. This high velocity aerosol impacts and penetrates in the liquid sample. Consequently, the liquid – liquid exchange surface area becomes high, thus leading to high extraction yields. A hydrophilic deep eutectic solvent (DES) consisting of choline chloride and ethylene glycol (1:2 mass ratio) has been selected as the extracting solvent. Prior to undertaking the experiments, the extraction method has been evaluated in terms of precision under suitable conditions. In comparison with conventional methods based on sample digestion, sample dilution and shot analysis or extraction assisted by vortex agitation, the DLLAPE shows several advantages, because it is faster, and it provides lower limits of detection than the reference methodologies. The procedural limits of quantification for the determined elements with the DLLAPE in ICP-OES were 0.046 (Ag), 0.396 (Al), 0.013 (Cd), 0.033 (Cr), 0.040 (Cu), 0.20 (Fe), 0.026 (K), 0.026 (Li), 0.33 (Mg), 0.013 (Mn), 2.64 (Ni) and 0.53 (Pb) mg kg−1. Meanwhile, pLOQ in ICP-MS/MS lowered by roughly one order of magnitude. The accuracy of the aerosol phase extraction method has been evaluated through the determination of the recoveries for four representative analytes (Ca, Cu, Mg and Ni) from spiked real samples. For these elements, recovery has taken values of (100 ± 20)%. Moreover, a comparison of the multielemental concentration obtained with conventional methods (c.a., sample dilution and shot ICP analysis and liquid-liquid extraction using a vortex agitator) against that measured with the DLLAPE has been carried out. Multiemelemental concentrations have been obtained for real samples and the found levels have been similar to those encountered in previously published works.The authors wish to thank to the Spanish Ministry of Science, Innovation and Universities for the financial support (Projects Ref.

Selection of Radiomics Features based on their Reproducibility

Dimensionality reduction is key to alleviate machine learning artifacts in clinical applications with Small Sample Size (SSS) unbalanced datasets. Existing methods rely on either the probabilistic distribution of training data or the discriminant power of the reduced space, disregarding the impact of repeatability and uncertainty in features.In the present study is proposed the use of reproducibility of radiomics features to select features with high inter-class correlation coefficient (ICC). The reproducibility includes the variability introduced in the image acquisition, like medical scans acquisition parameters and convolution kernels, that affects intensity-based features and tumor annotations made by physicians, that influences morphological descriptors of the lesion.For the reproducibility of radiomics features three studies were conducted on cases collected at Vall Hebron Oncology Institute (VHIO) on responders to oncology treatment. The studies focused on the variability due to the convolution kernel, image acquisition parameters, and the inter-observer lesion identification. The features selected were those features with a ICC higher than 0.7 in the three studies.The selected features based on reproducibility were evaluated for lesion malignancy classification using a different database. Results show better performance compared to several state-of-the-art methods including Principal Component Analysis (PCA), Kernel Discriminant Analysis via QR decomposition (KDAQR), LASSO, and an own built Convolutional Neural Network

Elevated Lead, Nickel, and Bismuth Levels in the Peritoneal Fluid of a Peritoneal Endometriosis Patient without Toxic Habits or Occupational Exposure following a Vegetarian Diet

Potentially toxic elements (PTEs), found as environmental contaminants, have been related to endometriosis disease. In this context, the peritoneal fluid (PF) matrix has been poorly studied despite its importance. PF is the environment in which endometriotic lesions reside and communicate with surrounding tissues including tissues and nerve cells. In this work, our investigation group reports the special case of a peritoneal endometriosis patient presenting elevated lead, nickel, and bismuth levels in PF. This patient reported following a vegetarian diet and no toxic habits or occupational exposure. In conclusion, the elevated levels of PTEs found may result from a vegetarian diet or an unidentified environmental exposure source. This report provides new insights regarding the possible etiology of endometriosis disease and potential biomarkers for its diagnosis in early stages, although additional research is needed.This study was funded by the Fundación para el Fomento de la Investigación Sanitaria y Biomédica de la Comunitat Valenciana (UGP-19-042 and UGP-20-039).

Correlating Antimicrobial activity and Structure in Montmorillonite modified with Hexadecyltrimethylammonium and Silver

The relationship between antimicrobial properties and structure of montmorillonite (MMT) containing hexadecyltrimethylammonium bromide (HDTMA-Br) and silver (Ag) was determined. HDTMA was adsorbed at the clay interlayer by a cation exchange, through the positive head of the ammonium group. At higher surfactant loadings (100 and 200% cation exchange capacity (CEC); MH1 and MH2 samples, respectively) the prevalence of weak adsorption (Van der Waals forces) was observed; whereas below the clay CEC (50%, MH0.5) strong interactions predominated (cation exchange). These different interactions impacted on antimicrobial activity, increasing bactericidal capacity when the surfactant was more available to diffuse. For organo-montmorillonites (OMMT) and all samples with Ag, zeta potential pointed out electrical charge changes on the outer surface, respect to MMT. XPS analyses showed peaks attributed to clusters formation, silver oxidation, and Ag0 in MMTAg and MH0.5-Ag. The Ag0 peak was also present in MH1-Ag and MH2-Ag, the later showing an extra peak associated with AgBr. HDMTA+ and Ag adsorbed on the MMT acted synergistically against Staphylococcus aureus. This effect was less noticeable for Escherichia coli and the result was attributed to both, E. coli outer envelope which might lower the efficacy of HDMTA+ adsorbed on the MMT, and decreasing silver proportions when the surfactant loading increased. MH1-Ag presented the best bactericidal properties, showing synergistic effects against S. aureus, while maintaining activity against E. coli compared to MMT-Ag. Understanding MMT-HDMTA-Ag efficacy contributes to the design of new antimicrobial materials for potential applications in health careFil: Fernández Solarte, Alejandra María.

Game-Based Learning Outcomes Among Physiotherapy Students: Comparative Study

Background: University teaching methods are changing, and in response to a classical teacher-centered approach, new methods continue to strengthen knowledge acquisition by involving students more actively in their learning, thus achieving greater motivation and commitment. Objective: This study aimed to analyze the degree of satisfaction of physiotherapy students who used a board game–based approach, as well as to compare the difference between traditional and gamification teaching methods and their influence on the final evaluation of these students. Methods: A comparative study was conducted. Participants were physiotherapy students who were enrolled in the subject of “physiotherapy in geriatric and adult psychomotricity” (n=59). They were divided into two groups (experimental [n=29] and control [n=30] groups) through convenience sampling. The experimental group received gamification lessons, where the students performed different tests adapted from Party&Co, and the control group received traditional lessons. A total of 16 theoretical lessons were received in both groups. Results: The scores in the final examination of the subject were higher in the experimental group (mean 7.53, SD 0.95) than in the control group (mean 6.24, SD 1.34), showing a statistically significant difference between the two groups (P=.001). Conclusions: Overall, the “Physiotherapy Party” game not only stimulated learning and motivated students, but also improved learning outcomes among participants, and the improvements were greater than those among students who received traditional teaching

Validation of the child and youth resilience measure-28 (CYRM-28) among Spanish youth

Objectives: This article presents a validation study of the 28-item Child and Youth Resilience Measure (CYRM-28). The sample contained 365 Spanish youth ages between 15 to 21, from Navarre (Spain), all of them enrolled in Initial Vocational Qualification Programs. Method: The CYRM-28 was administered to students from 27 secondary schools in the province of Navarre. Confirmatory analyses were conducted. Results: The structure of the original scale was confirmed, as well as acceptable psychometric properties. Discussion: Findings add support to the CYRM-28 as a reliable and valid self-report instrument that measures three components of resilience processes in the lives of youth with complex needs. The CYRM-28 shows adequate psychometric properties, the CFA presents indices of goodness and fit (Chi-squared = 60,170, df = 17, p < .001; CFI = .960, TLI = .934, IFI = .961, RFI = .911 and NFI = .946; RMSEA = .084). Conclusion: Advanced statistical modeling yielded evidence that the scale, originally developed for use in several countries, can be used to assess resilience in Spanish youth.This work was supported by Ministry of Education and Science (R&D Project PGC2018-094672-B-I00); University of Almería (UAL18-SEJ-DO31-A-FEDER) and the European Social Fund

Corrupción agravada del artículo 168 del código penal y el principio de territorialidad

La corrupción de las niñas, niños y adolescentes no es un tema nuevo, pero con el desarrollo de las nuevas tecnologías y nuevos medios que facilitan el cometimiento de los delitos, se ha presentado con más auge y relevancia, se ha de entender como una corrupción sexual, es el estado en el que se ha alterado el sentido natural de la sexualidad, sea por lo prematuro de su evolución o porque el sujeto pasivo llega a aceptar como normal la depravación de la actividad sexual. Es de esta forma que el principio de territorialidad tiene relevancia en el caso de los delitos informáticos, en razón que la víctima pudiese estar en un país o continente diferente que el sujeto activo, presentándose una dificultad para el juzgador el definir el momento exacto en el que se ha cometido el hecho ilícito y más aún, cuando los casos son poco denunciados. Las denuncias de estos delitos son escasas, ya sea porque son las madres, padres o personas de confianza de las niñas, niños o adolescentes, las personas autoras de estos hecho o bien, por la falta de educación sexual y confianza de parte de las y los menores de edad para poder decir a sus padres acerca de los problemas que están enfrentando. El código penal contempla este delito en su artículo 167 en relación con el artículo 168 (sus agravantes), donde establece que el bien jurídico vulnerado es el de la Libertad sexual, sin embargo las niñas, niños y adolescentes no poseen libertad sexual, si no indemnidad sexual y es la vulneración de este bien jurídico que sanciona la norma jurídica, por lo tanto se ha de entender que los niños, niñas y adolescentes tienen derecho a no sufrir interferencia en el desarrollo de su sexualidad, en razón de la madures que estos tienen tanto psicológica como sexual
