Adapting the revised prenatal coping inventory (NuPCI) for use in a Spanish population

Objective: To adapt the Revised Prenatal Coping Inventory (NuPCI) for the evaluation of prenatal stress coping strategies utilised by Spanish women. Methods: A cross-sectional study was performed to evaluate the psychometric properties of NuPCI adapted for a Spanish population. Two hundred and sixty one puerperium women completed the NuPCI at the time of discharge after childbirth. Instrument construct validity was evaluated using subscale item correlations. Internal consistency was assessed using Cronbach’s a test. Results: Items from each subscale (Preparation, Avoidance and Spiritual – Positive Coping) were significantly correlated with the global result (p¿¿0.7). The most frequently used coping strategy was Preparation and the least used was Avoidance. Utilisation of the coping strategies with Preparation decreased with increasing parity (p¿=¿.002) and greater prenatal stress was associated with increased use of the Avoidance coping strategy (p¿<¿.001). Conclusions: The NuPCI adapted for Spanish women demonstrates good psychometric properties for evaluating the three types of prenatal stress coping strategies: Preparation, Avoidance and Spiritual – Positive Coping. Results were similar to those presented by the instrument in its English language version

Insulinoma : a propósito de un caso clínico

Se describe un caso de insulinoma en un perro. La presentación clínica inicial, algo oscura, permite realizar un protocolo diagnóstico diferencial primero del síndrome de debilidad, luego de hipoglucemia, y finalmente confirmar el insulinoma por las correspondientes pruebas endocrinológicas, incluido el test de la fructosamina, y visualización de nódulos característicos en páncreas gracias a la exploración ecográfica.A case of insulinoma in the dog is described. Due to the initially unclear clinical picture, a differential diagnosis of weakness is carried out at first, of hypoglycemia later, and after the endocrinologycal tests (including the fructosamine test) and ultrasonographic examination (visualizing characteristic pancreatic nodules) a final diagnosis of insulinoma is made

Validación del Cuestionario de Autoevaluación de la Creatividad en la Enseñanza Universitaria CACEU-2010

La creatividad es un vector formativo de la enseñanza y de las relaciones entre estudiantes y profesores en la Educación Superior. A tal fin, el Cuestionario de Autoevaluación de la Creatividad en la Enseñanza Universitaria (CACEU-2010) se ha diseñado para conocer cómo comprenden los profesores universitarios la creatividad aplicada a su enseñanza y facilitar su autoevaluación. Se estructuró como una escala de autoinforme, conformada por 44 ítemes. Se estudió la validez de contenido, realizada por jueces expertos. La fiabilidad se obtuvo con el método Alpha de Cronbach, y el parámetro obtuvo valores entre 0,70 y 0,94 para las diferentes subescalas utilizadas

Diagnóstico ecográfico en un caso clínico de quiste paraprostático canino

El artículo describe el diagnóstico ecográfico de un caso clínico de quiste paraprostático en un perro, discutiendo la importancia de la imagen en el diagnóstico de afecciones prostáticas y mostrando imágenes radiológicas y ecográficas.This paper describes the ultrasonographic diagnosis in a case of paraprostatic cyst in a dog. Importance of imaging diagnostic methods in prostatic diseases are discussed. Radiologic and ultrasound images are shown

Context unification is in PSPACE

Contexts are terms with one `hole', i.e. a place in which we can substitute an argument. In context unification we are given an equation over terms with variables representing contexts and ask about the satisfiability of this equation. Context unification is a natural subvariant of second-order unification, which is undecidable, and a generalization of word equations, which are decidable, at the same time. It is the unique problem between those two whose decidability is uncertain (for already almost two decades). In this paper we show that the context unification is in PSPACE. The result holds under a (usual) assumption that the first-order signature is finite. This result is obtained by an extension of the recompression technique, recently developed by the author and used in particular to obtain a new PSPACE algorithm for satisfiability of word equations, to context unification. The recompression is based on performing simple compression rules (replacing pairs of neighbouring function symbols), which are (conceptually) applied on the solution of the context equation and modifying the equation in a way so that such compression steps can be in fact performed directly on the equation, without the knowledge of the actual solution.Comment: 27 pages, submitted, small notation changes and small improvements over the previous tex
