Expected outcomes of sport practice for inmates : a comparison of perceptions of inmates and staff

In our society there is a version of sports that is "invisible". It is not competitive, it generates no new records and provides no victories. It consists of the unrecognized sporting experiences of certain social minorities. One of these minorities is the prison population. Some research has examined the effects that the practice of sports can have in prisons. This article analyzes these effects based on the results of a qualitative study carried out in Andalusia in Spain. It focuses on the role of sports in the social rehabilitation of the prison population, emphasizing its potential in generating positive attitudes and behaviors that are helpful in re-integration. It also reveals that the role sports has in social rehabilitation is only effective if sports programs in prisons have sound pedagogical practices behind them.En nuestra sociedad existe una versión del deporte "invisible".

Development and characterization of graphene derivative&-GelMA hybrid bioinks for the generation of bioartificial tissue substitutes via 3D bioprinting

26 p.The fabrication of bioartificial tissue substitutes is a complex process that relies on the application of innovative biomaterials and manufacturing techniques enabling the generation of cell-laden scaffolds mimicking natural tissue interfaces. Among the many biomaterials, gelatin methacryloyl (GelMA) hydrogels have shown great potential for three-dimensional (3D) bioprinting-based tissue engineering due to their high biocompatibility, biodegradability, and tunable mechanical properties. In this study, the potential use of hybrid hydrogels based on GelMA and a highly purified graphene-derivative (BioGraph) as biomaterials bioinks for extrusion-based 3D bioprinting was investigated. Formulations containing BioGraph concentrations of up to 0.1% w/v were well-suited for this technique, showing good extrudability with reduced clogging at the printing temperatures, effective photocrosslinking at the irradiances tested, high shape fidelity, and high resolution of the printed scaffold. In situ photocrosslinking tests revealed that BioGraph concentration decreased the speed of the photocrosslinking and the stiffness of the cured matrix. In vitro studies indicated that BioGraph content ?0.1% w/v did not have an adverse impact on the viability and proliferation of rat adipose-derived mesenchymal stem cells (r-AMSCs). Similarly, acellular scaffolds implanted subcutaneously in rats showed a local macrophage-mediated inflammatory reaction and a collagen encapsulation process without any affection of surrounded host tissues. The addition of lower concentrations of BioGraph (0.025% w/v) to the matrix resulted in enhanced macrophagic interactions and scaffold degradation in vivo, and r-AMSCs growth and proliferation in vitro. In conclusion, the GelMA?BioGraph hybrid hydrogels developed here demonstrate enhanced rheological and biological properties, tailored for extrusion-based 3D bioprinting with applications in the engineering of soft (neural, liver, etc.) or hard (bone) tissues.Ministerio de Ciencia e InnovaciónInstituto de Salud Carlos IIIUniversidad de AlcaláMinisterio de Economía y CompetitividadAgencia Estatal de InvestigaciónGeneralitat de Cataluny

Y-balance-test en jugadores de fútbol atendiendo al nivel de competición (Y-balance-test in soccer players according to the competition level)

El presente estudio pretende mostrar de forma descriptiva los rangos de normalidad del Y-Balance-Test (YBT) para 173 jugadores de fútbol masculino, agrupados en 5 categorías (Cadetes: n= 48; edad= 14.18 ± 2.02 años; Juveniles: n= 62; edad= 18.20 ± 2.04 años; 3ª División: n = 21; edad = 25.42 ± 4.52 años; 2ª División B: n = 19; edad = 25.68 ± 3.00 años; 1ª División: n = 23; edad = 32.91 ± 3.04 años) y diferenciando la posición específica (portero, lateral, defensa central, centrocampista, extremo y delanteros). Los resultados del presente estudio se presentan en medias y desviaciones típicas, con el fin de poder mostrar el alcance normalizado (pierna dominante, no dominante) y las asimetrías entre extremidades (promedio ± DE; Total ≤ ± 4 y % del total en cm). Aunque es un estudio descriptivo, los datos que aquí se encuentran, parecen mostrar una mejora en los rangos del YBT a medida que aumentan la categoría para todas las medidas evaluadas. De forma complementaria, podemos sugerir que los delanteros de todas las categorías presentan déficit en la medida posteromedial (PM) y los jugadores de categoría cadete y juvenil, concretamente en la posición de centrocampistas, poseen grandes déficits en la totalidad de las medidas con respecto a los demás participantes del estudio. En conclusión, los resultados obtenidos nos permitirán obtener un amplio espectro de medidas en el YBT para diferentes categorías, que hasta donde alcanza nuestro conocimiento no existe en la literatura, para así ser más precisos en su evaluación. Además, nos ayudará a conocer con más precisión los rangos de normalidad de cada uno de los grupos, valorando en cada momento como la edad de estos influye en las asimetrías que podemos encontrar en nuestros futbolistas, permitiéndonos actuar en el deportista y establecer programas preventivos individualizados y preventivos más eficientes. Abstract. The aim of this study is to show the ranges of normality for soccer players in different categories evaluated by Y-Balance-Test (YBT). A total of 173 soccer players were evaluated and grouped in 5 different categories (U16: n= 48; age= 14.18 ± 2.02 age; U19: n= 62; age = 18.20 ± 2.04 age; Third Division: n = 21; age = 25.42 ± 4.52 age; Second Division B: n = 19; age = 25.68 ± 3.00 age; First Division: n = 23; age = 32.91 ± 3.04 age) according to their specific positions (goalkeeper, full backs, central defenders, center midfielders, wingers, and center forwards). The results of this research consist in the means and standard deviation for the YBT, with the purpose of explaining the standardized reach (dominant and non-dominant legs) and asymmetries between limbs (average ± DE; Total ≤ ± 4 and % of the total in cm). While the nature of this study is purely observational, an increase in the scores for all the measurements can be noted from lower to higher categories. At all categories, center forwards present a deficit in the posteromedial movement (PM), whereas center midfielder from U16 and U19 is the position with the highest deficits. The knowledge of the YBT scores is essential to understand with greater precision how categories influence the asymmetries, and consequently to create more effective preventive programs

A school-based physical activity promotion intervention in children: rationale and study protocol for the PREVIENE Project

The lack of physical activity and increasing time spent in sedentary behaviours during childhood place importance on developing low cost, easy-toimplement school-based interventions to increase physical activity among children. The PREVIENE Project will evaluate the effectiveness of five innovative, simple, and feasible interventions (active commuting to/from school, active Physical Education lessons, active school recess, sleep health promotion, and an integrated program incorporating all 4 interventions) to improve physical activity, fitness, anthropometry, sleep health, academic achievement, and health-related quality of life in primary school children. The PREVIENE Project will provide the information about the effectiveness and implementation of different school-based interventions for physical activity promotion in primary school children.The PREVIENE Project was funded by the Spanish Ministry of Economy and Competitiveness (DEP2015-63988-R, MINECO-FEDER).

Repeated pancreatic resection for pancreatic metastases from renal cell Carcinoma: A Spanish multicenter study (PANMEKID)

Background and objectives: Recurrent isolated pancreatic metastasis from Renal Cell Carcinoma (RCC) after pancreatic resection is rare. The purpose of our study is to describe a series of cases of relapse of pancreatic metastasis from renal cancer in the pancreatic remnant and its surgical treatment with a repeated pancreatic resection, and to analyse the results of both overall and disease -free survival. Methods: Multicenter retrospective study of patients undergoing pancreatic resection for RCC pancreatic metastases, from January 2010 to May 2020. Patients were grouped into two groups depending on whether they received a single pancreatic resection (SPS) or iterative pancreatic resection. Data on short and long-term outcome after pancreatic resection were collected. Results: The study included 131 pancreatic resections performed in 116 patients. Thus, iterative pancreatic surgery (IPS) was performed in 15 patients. The mean length of time between the first pancreatic surgery and the second was 48.9 months (95 % CI: 22.2-56.9). There were no differences in the rate of postoperative complications. The DFS rates at 1, 3 and 5 years were 86 %, 78 % and 78 % vs 75 %, 50 % and 37 % in the IPS and SPS group respectively (p = 0.179). OS rates at 1, 3, 5 and 7 years were 100 %, 100 %, 100 % and 75 % in the IPS group vs 95 %, 85 %, 80 % and 68 % in the SPS group (p = 0.895). Conclusion: Repeated pancreatic resection in case of relapse of pancreatic metastasis of RCC in the pancreatic remnant is justified, since it achieves OS results similar to those obtained after the first resection

Pancreatic metastases from renal cell carcinoma. Postoperative outcome after surgical treatment in a Spanish multicenter study (PANMEKID)

Background: Renal Cell Carcinoma (RCC) occasionally spreads to the pancreas. The purpose of our study is to evaluate the short and long-term results of a multicenter series in order to determine the effect of surgical treatment on the prognosis of these patients. Methods: Multicenter retrospective study of patients undergoing surgery for RCC pancreatic metastases, from January 2010 to May 2020. Variables related to the primary tumor, demographics, clinical characteristics of metastasis, location in the pancreas, type of pancreatic resection performed and data on short and long-term evolution after pancreatic resection were collected. Results: The study included 116 patients. The mean time between nephrectomy and pancreatic metastases' resection was 87.35 months (ICR: 1.51-332.55). Distal pancreatectomy was the most performed technique employed (50 %). Postoperative morbidity was observed in 60.9 % of cases (Clavien-Dindo greater than IIIa in 14 %). The median follow-up time was 43 months (13-78). Overall survival (OS) rates at 1, 3, and 5 years were 96 %, 88 %, and 83 %, respectively. The disease-free survival (DFS) rate at 1, 3, and 5 years was 73 %, 49 %, and 35 %, respectively. Significant prognostic factors of relapse were a disease free interval of less than 10 years (2.05 [1.13-3.72], p 0.02) and a history of previous extrapancreatic metastasis (2.44 [1.22-4.86], p 0.01). Conclusions: Pancreatic resection if metastatic RCC is found in the pancreas is warranted to achieve higher overall survival and disease-free survival, even if extrapancreatic metastases were previously removed. The existence of intrapancreatic multifocal compromise does not always warrant the performance of a total pancreatectomy in order to improve survival. (C) 2021 The Authors. Published by Elsevier Ltd

Treatment with tocilizumab or corticosteroids for COVID-19 patients with hyperinflammatory state: a multicentre cohort study (SAM-COVID-19)

Objectives: The objective of this study was to estimate the association between tocilizumab or corticosteroids and the risk of intubation or death in patients with coronavirus disease 19 (COVID-19) with a hyperinflammatory state according to clinical and laboratory parameters. Methods: A cohort study was performed in 60 Spanish hospitals including 778 patients with COVID-19 and clinical and laboratory data indicative of a hyperinflammatory state. Treatment was mainly with tocilizumab, an intermediate-high dose of corticosteroids (IHDC), a pulse dose of corticosteroids (PDC), combination therapy, or no treatment. Primary outcome was intubation or death; follow-up was 21 days. Propensity score-adjusted estimations using Cox regression (logistic regression if needed) were calculated. Propensity scores were used as confounders, matching variables and for the inverse probability of treatment weights (IPTWs). Results: In all, 88, 117, 78 and 151 patients treated with tocilizumab, IHDC, PDC, and combination therapy, respectively, were compared with 344 untreated patients. The primary endpoint occurred in 10 (11.4%), 27 (23.1%), 12 (15.4%), 40 (25.6%) and 69 (21.1%), respectively. The IPTW-based hazard ratios (odds ratio for combination therapy) for the primary endpoint were 0.32 (95%CI 0.22-0.47; p < 0.001) for tocilizumab, 0.82 (0.71-1.30; p 0.82) for IHDC, 0.61 (0.43-0.86; p 0.006) for PDC, and 1.17 (0.86-1.58; p 0.30) for combination therapy. Other applications of the propensity score provided similar results, but were not significant for PDC. Tocilizumab was also associated with lower hazard of death alone in IPTW analysis (0.07; 0.02-0.17; p < 0.001). Conclusions: Tocilizumab might be useful in COVID-19 patients with a hyperinflammatory state and should be prioritized for randomized trials in this situatio
