    Fundamentos: En universitarios, el consumo de alcohol de mayor riesgo (borracheras y binge drinking (BD), tiene consecuencias negativas sobre su desarrollo y probablemente facilita conductas sexuales de riesgo. El objetivo de este trabajo fue estudiar si las conductas sexuales de riesgo al consumir alcohol (CSRA) se asocian a los consumos de mayor riesgo. MĂ©todos: Estudio multicĂ©ntrico transversal con datos del Proyecto uniHcos, de universitarios de 1er año de 11 universidades españolas, entre los cursos 2011-2012 y 2017- 2018. Datos recogidos mediante cuestionario autoadministrado. Se realizĂł un anĂĄlisis uni y bivariable, evaluando la significaciĂłn estadĂ­stica de las diferencias de prevalencia con chi-cuadrado. Se utilizĂł media y desviaciĂłn tĂ­pica para variables cuantitativas y como estadĂ­stico de contraste t de Student. Resultados: 9.862 participantes (72,2% mujeres). El 90,3% consumiĂł alcohol y el 60,9% tuvo borracheras en Ășltimo año; el 49% tuvo BD en el Ășltimo mes. El consumo en el Ășltimo mes y las borracheras fueron mayores en hombres y < 21 años. Las CSRA fueron superiores entre los que se emborracharon (15,7% sexo sin protecciĂłn, 1,9% abuso sexual y 0,7% aprovecharse sexualmente) y consumieron en BD (17,1%, 1,9% y 0,7%). Las mujeres con ambos consumos de riesgo presentaron mĂĄs abusos sexuales (2,2%), y los hombres fueron quienes mĂĄs se aprovecharon sexualmente de otros (borracheras:1,2%; BD: 1,3%). Conclusiones: El consumo de alcohol estĂĄ por encima de grupos similares. El BD tiene un patrĂłn similar por gĂ©nero y edad. Las CSRA se asocian a los consumos de mayor riesgo, no detectĂĄndose en este grupo diferencias por gĂ©nero en sexo sin protecciĂłn, sĂ­ en otras CSRA.Objective: In college students, higher risk alcohol consumption (drunkenness and binge drinking-BD) has negative consequences on their development and and probably facilitates risk sexual behaviors. The objective was to study if risky sexual behaviors when consuming alcohol (RSBA) are associated with higher risk consumption. Methods: Cross-sectional multicenter study with UniHcos Project, 1st year university students from 11 universities in Spain, academic years 2011-2012 to 2017-2018 data. This data were collected by self-administered questionnaire. A uni and bivariate analysis was performed, evaluated the statistical significance of the differences in prevalence with chi-square. Mean and standard deviation were used for quantitative variables and Student's t test statistic was used. Results: 9,862 subjects (72.2% women). 90.3% reported having consumed alcohol and 60.9% had drunk the last year, 49% BD in last month. It was deteded in men, significantly higher consumption in the last month and drunkenness. Last month consumption and drunkenness were significantly higher in men and in <21 years. The RSBA were significantly higher among who were drunk (15.7% unprotected sex, 1.9% sexual abuse and 0.7% taking sexual advantage) and had BD (17.1%, 1.9% and 0.7 %). Women with both risk consumptions had more sexual abuse (2.2%), and men had greater behaviors of taking sexual advantage of someone (drunk: 1.2%; BD: 1.3%). Conclusions: Alcohol consumption was above similar groups. BD consumption was similar by gender and age. Risk sexual behaviors appear mainly in problematic consumption. Gender differences are not detected in alcohol consumers in unprotected sex but deteded in the rest.FinanciaciĂłn: El estudio ha sido financiado por el Plan Nacional Sobre Drogas del Ministerio de Salud, Servicios Sociales e Igualdad.

    Objective: To assess the prevalence of illegal drug use in college students on any previous occasion, duringthe previous year and the previous month, and to analyze the relationship between illegal drug use andfamily support and other factors.Methods: A cross-sectional study using data from students participating in the uniHcos project (n = 3767)was conducted. The prevalence and age of onset of consumption of cannabis, non-prescription sedatives,stimulants and depressants was evaluated. Polyconsumption was also assessed. The independent vari-ables were: family support, age, residence, and employment status. To determine the factors related todrug use multivariate logistic regression models stratified by gender were fitted.Results: Differences between men and women in prevalence of illegal drug use except non-prescriptionsedatives were observed. In both genders, less family support was associated with higher consumptionof all drugs, except depressants, and with polyconsumption. To be studying and looking for work wasrelated to cannabis and stimulant use and to polyconsumption among women, but only to cannabis useamong men.Conclusions: These results support the notion that the start of university studies is a particularly relevantstage in the onset of illegal drug use and its prevention, and that consumption may be especially associatedwith family support.Objetivo: Evaluar la prevalencia del consumo de drogas ilegales en estudiantes universitarios y analizarla relaciĂłn entre dicho consumo, el apoyo familiar y otros factores.MĂ©todo: Se realizĂł un dise?no transversal basado en datos de participantes en el proyecto uniHcos (n =3767). Se evaluaron la prevalencia y la edad de inicio del consumo de cannabis, tranquilizantes sin receta,estimulantes y depresores, y el policonsumo. Como variables independientes se consideraron el apoyofamiliar, la edad, la residencia y la situaciĂłn laboral. Para la determinaciĂłn de los factores asociados alconsumo de drogas se ajustaron modelos de regresiĂłn logĂ­stica estratificados por sexo.Resultados: Se observaron diferencias entre hombres y mujeres en la prevalencia del consumo de todaslas drogas ilegales, excepto tranquilizantes sin receta. En ambos sexos, cuanto peor apoyo familiar, mayorconsumo de todas las drogas, excepto depresores y policonsumo. Encontrarse estudiando y buscandotrabajo se relacionĂł con el consumo de cannabis, estimulantes y policonsumo en las mujeres, y solo concannabis en los hombres.Conclusiones: Los resultados de este estudio aportan nueva evidencia a favor de que el inicio de la etapauniversitaria es un momento de especial relevancia en el inicio del consumo de drogas ilegales y suprevenciĂłn, pudiendo este consumo estar especialmente relacionado con el apoyo familiar

    En este capĂ­tulo se hace una revisiĂłn bibliogrĂĄfica de estrategias de tecnologĂ­a aplicadas a la educaciĂłn superior consideradas de Ă©xito. La revisiĂłn bibliogrĂĄfica presenta experiencias reportadas entre los años 2017 y 2021, estudiadas por la comunidad cientĂ­fica y publicadas en revistas de ciencia, tecnologĂ­a y educaciĂłn. La bĂșsqueda se realizĂł en la base de datos Scopus y tambiĂ©n se utilizĂł Google AcadĂ©mico. Las experiencias estĂĄn relacionadas con los siguientes criterios que guiaron la bĂșsqueda: a) la formaciĂłn y desarrollo de competencias tecnolĂłgicas en profesores y estudiantes y b) el uso de la tecnologĂ­a para desarrollar metodologĂ­as innovadoras en educaciĂłn superior. Los estudios analizados demuestran que la tecnologĂ­a ha impactado los procesos de enseñanza y aprendizaje haciĂ©ndolos mĂĄs flexibles, colaborativos, creativos y autĂłnomos, y que en la actualidad se ha transformado la forma de circular la informaciĂłn y producir conocimiento en la educaciĂłn superior, gracias a que despuĂ©s de los primeros confinamientos aumentĂł la confianza hacia a la educaciĂłn soportada en tecnologĂ­a. No obstante, queda bastante por hacer. Hay sectores que aĂșn desconfĂ­an del potencial que esta ofrece, por lo que se requerirĂĄ cada vez mĂĄs de estrategias formativas que acerquen mĂĄs a los docentes a los estudiantes y a las instituciones a la realidad del mercado y de un mundo en constante transformaciĂłn.Consideraciones generales.-- Pregunta de investigaciĂłn.-- Objetivo de investigaciĂłn.-- JustificaciĂłn.-- Marco referencial.-- MetodologĂ­a.-- Resultados.-- Conclusiones.-- Recomendaciones.-- BibliografĂ­a

    Quality of life in a cohort of 1078 women diagnosed with breast cancer in spain: 7-year follow-up results in the MCC-Spain Study

    Breast cancer is the most frequent cause of tumors and net survival is increasing. Achieving a higher survival probability reinforces the importance of studying health-related quality of life (HR-QoL). The main aim of this work is to test the relationship between different sociodemographic, clinical and tumor-intrinsic characteristics, and treatment received with HR-QoL measured using SF-12 and the FACT/NCCN (National Comprehensive Cancer Network/Functional Assessment of Cancer Therapy) Breast Symptom Index (FBSI). Women with breast cancer recruited between 2008 and 2013 and followed-up until 2017-2018 in a prospective cohort answered two HR-QoL surveys: the SF-12 and FBSI. The scores obtained were related to woman and tumor characteristics using linear regression models. The telephone survey was answered by 1078 women out of 1685 with medical record follow-up (64%). Increases in all three HR-QoL scores were associated with higher educational level. The score differences between women with university qualifications and women with no schooling were 5.43 for PCS-12, 6.13 for MCS-12 and 4.29 for FBSI. Histological grade at diagnosis and recurrence in the follow-up displayed a significant association with mental and physical HR-QoL, respectively. First-line treatment received was not associated with HR-QoL scores. On the other hand, most tumor characteristics were not associated with HR-QoL. As breast cancer survival is improving, further studies are needed to ascertain if these differences still hold in the long run

    Background Anastomotic leak affects 8 per cent of patients after right colectomy with a 10-fold increased risk of postoperative death. The EAGLE study aimed to develop and test whether an international, standardized quality improvement intervention could reduce anastomotic leaks. Methods The internationally intended protocol, iteratively co-developed by a multistage Delphi process, comprised an online educational module introducing risk stratification, an intraoperative checklist, and harmonized surgical techniques. Clusters (hospital teams) were randomized to one of three arms with varied sequences of intervention/data collection by a derived stepped-wedge batch design (at least 18 hospital teams per batch). Patients were blinded to the study allocation. Low- and middle-income country enrolment was encouraged. The primary outcome (assessed by intention to treat) was anastomotic leak rate, and subgroup analyses by module completion (at least 80 per cent of surgeons, high engagement; less than 50 per cent, low engagement) were preplanned. Results A total 355 hospital teams registered, with 332 from 64 countries (39.2 per cent low and middle income) included in the final analysis. The online modules were completed by half of the surgeons (2143 of 4411). The primary analysis included 3039 of the 3268 patients recruited (206 patients had no anastomosis and 23 were lost to follow-up), with anastomotic leaks arising before and after the intervention in 10.1 and 9.6 per cent respectively (adjusted OR 0.87, 95 per cent c.i. 0.59 to 1.30; P = 0.498). The proportion of surgeons completing the educational modules was an influence: the leak rate decreased from 12.2 per cent (61 of 500) before intervention to 5.1 per cent (24 of 473) after intervention in high-engagement centres (adjusted OR 0.36, 0.20 to 0.64; P &lt; 0.001), but this was not observed in low-engagement hospitals (8.3 per cent (59 of 714) and 13.8 per cent (61 of 443) respectively; adjusted OR 2.09, 1.31 to 3.31). Conclusion Completion of globally available digital training by engaged teams can alter anastomotic leak rates. Registration number: NCT04270721 (http://www.clinicaltrials.gov)
