Protocolo de exploración biomecánica para la confección de ortesis en pacientes con neuropatía del peroneo común o sus ramas terminales

Treball Final de Grau de Podologia, Facultat de Medicina i Ciències de la Salut, Universitat de Barcelona, curs: 2016-2017, Tutor: Esther Querol MartínezLa disfunción del nervio peroneo es la mononeuropatía local más frecuente de las extremidades inferiores tanto en adultos como en niños. El nervio peroneo común (NPC) se lesiona con más frecuencia que cualquiera de sus ramas y la caída del pie debido a la debilidad de la flexión dorsal del tobillo es la presentación clínica más común. El objetivo de este estudio es proporcionar un protocolo de exploración biomecánica que incluya la valoración muscular, de sensibilidad, reflejos osteotendinosos, y otras pruebas de diagnóstico diferencial para conseguir la prescripción del dispositivo ortesico más adecuado, a elección según la localización de la lesión y su respectiva presentación clínica

La ejecución y aprobación del remate en la vivienda habitual

El objeto de estudio de este Trabajo Fin de Grado es el procedimiento de la subasta judicial de inmuebles y ,en especial referencia , a la ejecución y aprobación del remate de la vivienda habitual. Se regula en la Ley de Enjuiciamiento Civil en sus artículos 655 a 675, centrándome en el proceso de adjudicación del remate, regulado así específicamente en los artículos 670 y 671. Se analizará especialmente cómo quedan protegidos los deudores hipotecarios en el proceso de ejecución de la vivienda habitual a través de la literalidad del artículo 671 LEC y “ese error de salto” del 70% al 60% del valor en la adjudicación del inmueble que enfrenta posturas entre jueces y registradores. Además atenderemos el conflicto entre tribunales y la doctrina de la DGRN, que actualmente se denomina Dirección General de Seguridad Jurídica y Fe Pública, por la calificación respecto la solicitud de adjudicación de una finca por cantidad menor al 50 por 100 del valor de tasación, doctrina que en la mayoría de los casos ha sido revocada. Por último veremos el código de las buenas prácticas que perjudicó sobre todo a entidades bancarias o financieras, empujados por la reciente crisis económica que afectó a tantos españoles y sus hipotecas.Departamento de Derecho CivilGrado en Derech

Aprendemos matemáticas desde un punto de vista acuático en 4.º de Primaria.

Treball Final de Grau en Mestre o Mestra d'Educació Primària. Codi: MP1040. Curs acadèmic: 2022/2023La práctica de ejercicio físico es un aspecto muy importante en la vida, sobre todo en la de los niños/as, ya que nos ayuda a tener una mejor salud tanto mental como física. El presente trabajo de fin de grado tiene como propósito utilizar una metodología que relaciona las Matemáticas con la Educación Física, concretamente con la natación a través de una propuesta de intervención de una unidad didáctica en 4.º curso de Educación Primaria. El aprendizaje de cualquier asignatura únicamente desde una pizarra, con un libro de texto y con ejercicios que te marca el mismo, no motiva a todo el alumnado. Las matemáticas son algo que está en nuestro día a día y requiere de dificultad, si no se aprende bien desde el principio los conocimientos básicos y su progresión. Por eso, al ser vista en varias ocasiones como una ciencia aburrida y sin aplicación práctica a parte de los ejercicios a realizar, tenemos que acercar los diferentes contenidos a la realidad de los propios estudiantes, de un modo lúdico y entretenido. Para ello, se utiliza un enfoque interdisciplinar en el que el juego por medio del contexto de la natación nos sirve de conducto para plantear situaciones problemáticas en que los alumnos resolverán a través de sus conocimientos matemáticos

Collaboration towards value creation for end-of-life solar photovoltaic panel in Ghana

This paper identifies value creation strategies and the role of stakeholders in advancing sustainable practices for end-of-life (henceforth EOL) solar photovoltaic panels (solar PV) in Ghana. This is preceded by an overview of the global outlook of sustainable practices for EOL solar PV as well as how these can be promoted in a developing country like Ghana. The framework discusses and promotes efficient collaboration towards value creation by stakeholders in advancing sustainable practices for end-of-life solar PV in Ghana. The methodology centers on an integrative review aimed at identifying the different aspects leading to a value creation framework for EOL solar PV. The paper discusses a hybrid public-private partnership (HPPP), which includes the types of synergy between different actors as well as their clear roles. The core options available to government, businesses and end-users in the value creation includes the provision of a technical solution, improved logistics and innovative business opportunities. The aforementioned options will achieve reduction, reuse, repair and/or recycling, targeted at promoting a unique collaboration between all relevant stakeholders. Furthermore, such options present an opportunity to promote awareness utilizing education in sustainability, thus promoting the need for extending the useful lifecycle of the products.© 2021 The Authors.

Unveiling the shades of partnerships for the energy transitionand sustainable development: Connecting public–privatepartnerships and emerging hybrid schemes

The transition to cleaner energy technologies and sustainable development requires the commitment and collaboration of the public and private sectors. Among such collaborations, public–private partnership (PPP) refers to the convergence and complementarity between public and private actors and represents an organizational arrangement for addressing strategic sustainability challenges such as reducing carbon emissions and plays a relevant role in transforming the sector after energy reforms. The rigidity of PPP schemes introduces certain limitations in adapting to the energy transition and sustainability needs. As a result, several hybrid schemes have emerged from PPPs, which are focal points in this paper. This article aims to contrast PPPs with emerging hybrid PPPs to facilitate their understanding. It contributes to the academic dialog on recognizing the relevance of emerging forms of collaboration in tackling contemporary issues. The review's primary outcome is a framework of PPPs and hybrid PPPs and the critical challenges for advancing the energy transition and sustainable development. The contributions from this study may help policymakers to design suitable tools for incorporating hybrid PPPs in climate change policies and institutional frameworks. The findings suggest developing mechanisms through which PPPs and hybrid PPPs foster cleaner technologies, thus improving energy efficiency and access and strengthening energy security strategies. Further work is needed to address key research issues related to (i) mechanisms for the institutional alignment of hybrid PPPs, (ii) assuring reciprocity and commitment, (iii) knowledge management, and (iv) capacity-building.© 2022 The Authors.

End of life analysis of solar photovoltaic panel : roadmap for developing economies

Purpose The purpose of this paper is to propose a conceptual framework for handling end of life (henceforth EoL) scenarios of solar photovoltaic (solar PV) panels, which includes different options available to businesses and end-users, as well as promoting the collaboration between government and all relevant stakeholders. Design/methodology/approach This paper adopts purposeful sampling, secondary data and content analysis to develop an appropriate conceptual framework that helps to create awareness of the appropriate options for dealing with the EoL cases of solar PV panels. Findings From the data analysis, it is revealed that reuse, repair and recycling of solar PV panels can ensure value creation, public-private partnership and a solution for education in sustainability, and thus, prolonging the useful life cycle of the products. Research limitations/implications This paper limits the analysis on developing economies and the use of selected literature based on the recycling of solar PV panels. Originality/value This paper is an initial attempt to create an awareness by identifying, analyzing and educating the stakeholders to handle appropriately any EoL scenario of solar PV panels.© Emmanuel Ndzibah, Giovanna Andrea Pinilla-De La Cruz and Ahm shamsuzzoha.

Seed Dispersal Spectrum of Woody Species in South Ecuadorian Dry Forests: Environmental Correlates and the Effect of Considering Species Abundance

This study examines the seed dispersal spectrum of the tropical dry forests of Southern Ecuador, in an effort to contribute to the knowledge of the complex dynamics of tropical dry forests. Seed dispersal spectrum was described for a total number of 160 species. Relationships of dispersal syndromes with plant growth form and climatic seasonality were explored. For a subset of 97 species, we determined whether dispersal spectrum changes when species abundance, in addition to species number, is taken into account. The same subset was used to relate dispersal syndromes with the environmental conditions. Zoochorous species dominated in the studied community. When considering the individual abundance of each species, however, anemochory was the prevalent dispersal syndrome. We found a significant difference in the frequency of dispersal syndromes among plant growth forms, with epizoochory only occurring in shrub species. The dispersal spectrum was dependent on climatic seasonality. The largest proportion of anemochorous species fructified during the dry season, while zoochorous diaspores dominated during the rainy season. A fourth-corner analysis indicated that the seed dispersal spectrum of Southern Ecuador dry forests is controlled by environmental conditions such as annual precipitation, annual temperature range or topography. Our results suggest that spatio-temporal changes in the environmental conditions may affect important ecological processes for dispersal. Thus, the predominance of one syndrome or another may depend on the spatial variation of environmental conditions

Genomic insights into drug resistance and virulence platforms, CRISPR-Cas systems and phylogeny of commensal E. Coli from wildlife

Commensal bacteria act as important reservoirs of virulence and resistance genes. However, existing data are generally only focused on the analysis of human or human-related bacterial populations. There is a lack of genomic studies regarding commensal bacteria from hosts less exposed to antibiotics and other selective forces due to human activities, such as wildlife. In the present study, the genomes of thirty-eight E. coli strains from the gut of various wild animals were sequenced. The analysis of their accessory genome yielded a better understanding of the role of the mobilome on inter-bacterial dissemination of mosaic virulence and resistance plasmids. The study of the presence and composition of the CRISPR/Cas systems in E. coli from wild animals showed some viral and plasmid sequences among the spacers, as well as the relationship between CRISPR/Cas and E. coli phylogeny. Further, we constructed a single nucleotide polymorphisms-based core tree with E. coli strains from different sources (humans, livestock, food and extraintestinal environments). Bacteria from humans or highly human-influenced settings exhibit similar genetic patterns in CRISPR-Cas systems, plasmids or virulence/resistance genes-carrying modules. These observations, together with the absence of significant genetic changes in their core genome, suggest an ongoing flow of both mobile elements and E. coli lineages between human and natural ecosystems.Funding: This work was partially supported by project SAF2016-76571-R and PID2019-106158RB-I00 from the Agencia Estatal de Investigación (AEI) of Spain and the Fondo Europeo de Desarrollo Regional (FEDER) of EU.
