PIME Aprendizaje Basado en Proyectos: Ingeniería de Carreteras e Ingeniería Geotécnica.

[ES] En los últimos años, la Universitat Politècnica de València (UPV) ha promovido, dentro de su programa de innovación educativa “Aprendizaje y Docencia” (A+D), la puesta en marcha de Proyectos de Innovación y Mejora Educativa (PIME). Durante el curso 2019/2020 se ha implantado un PIME basado en Aprendizaje Basado en Proyectos (ABP) que reúne a dos asignaturas consecutivas de tercer curso de Ingeniería Civil. En este artículo se muestran los resultados alcanzados en el primer semestre de implantación. Los alumnos han expresado claramente su interés y preferencia por este tipo de metodología. Han demostrado haber adquirido un aprendizaje en profundidad y ser capaces de adquirir conocimientos de forma autónoma, así como transferir estos a la realidad de la profesión mediante el desarrollo de su capacidad de trabajar en equipo y la posibilidad de realizar visitas de campo donde los conocimientos recibidos adquieren un carácter práctico. Además, han desarrollado las competencias esperadas, integrando aspectos académicos con otros sociales y éticos.[EN] In recent years, the Polytechnic University of Valencia has encouraged the implementation of Educational Innovation and Improvement Projects (PIME) within the "Learning and Teaching" (A+D) program.

Identification of clinical phenotypes of peripheral involvement in patients with spondyloarthritis, including psoriatic arthritis: a cluster analysis in the worldwide ASAS-PerSpA study

OBJECTIVE: To identify clusters of peripheral involvement according to the specific location of peripheral manifestations (ie, arthritis, enthesitis and dactylitis) in patients with spondyloarthritis (SpA) including psoriatic arthritis (PsA), and to evaluate whether these clusters correspond with the clinical diagnosis of a rheumatologist. METHODS: Cross-sectional study with 24 participating countries. Consecutive patients diagnosed by their rheumatologist as PsA, axial SpA or peripheral SpA were enrolled. Four different cluster analyses were conducted: one using information on the specific location from all the peripheral manifestations, and a cluster analysis for each peripheral manifestation, separately. Multiple correspondence analyses and k-means clustering methods were used. Distribution of peripheral manifestations and clinical characteristics were compared across the different clusters. RESULTS: The different cluster analyses performed in the 4465 patients clearly distinguished a predominantly axial phenotype (cluster 1) and a predominantly peripheral phenotype (cluster 2). In the predominantly axial phenotype, hip involvement and lower limb large joint arthritis, heel enthesitis and lack of dactylitis were more prevalent. In the predominantly peripheral phenotype, different subgroups were distinguished based on the type and location of peripheral involvement: a predominantly involvement of upper versus lower limbs joints, a predominantly axial enthesitis versus peripheral enthesitis, and predominantly finger versus toe involvement in dactylitis. A poor agreement between the clusters and the rheumatologist's diagnosis as well as with the classification criteria was found. CONCLUSION: These results suggest the presence of two main phenotypes (predominantly axial and predominantly peripheral) based on the presence and location of the peripheral manifestations

Results of the worldwide, cross-sectional ASAS-PerSpA study

Objectives: To characterise peripheral musculoskeletal involvement in patients with spondyloarthritis (SpA) including psoriatic arthritis (PsA), across the world. Methods: Cross-sectional study with 24 participating countries. Patients with a diagnosis of axial SpA (axSpA), peripheral SpA (pSpA) or PsA according to their rheumatologist were included. The investigators were asked which diagnosis out of a list of six (axSpA, PsA, pSpA, inflammatory bowel disease-associated SpA, reactive arthritis or juvenile SpA (Juv-SpA)) fitted the patient best. Peripheral manifestations (ie, peripheral joint disease, enthesitis, dactylitis and root joint disease), their localisation and treatments were evaluated. Results: A total of 4465 patients were included (61% men, mean age 44.5 years) from four geographic areas: Latin America (n=538), Europe plus North America (n=1677), Asia (n=975) and the Middle East plus North Africa (n=1275). Of those, 78% had ever suffered from at least one peripheral musculoskeletal manifestation; 57% had peripheral joint disease, 44% had enthesitis and 15% had dactylitis. Latin American had far more often peripheral joint disease (80%) than patients from other areas. Patients with PsA had predominantly upper limb and small joint involvement (52%). Hip and shoulder involvement was found in 34% of patients. The prevalence of enthesitis ranged between 41% in patients with axSpA and 65% in patients with Juv-SpA. Dactylitis was most frequent among patients with PsA (37%). Conclusion: These results suggest that all peripheral features can be found in all subtypes of SpA, and that differences are quantitative rather than qualitative. In a high proportion of patients, axial and peripheral manifestations coincided. These findings reconfirm SpA clinical subtypes are descendants of the same underlying disease, called SpA.publishersversionpublishe

Pasados y presente. Estudios para el profesor Ricardo García Cárcel

Ricardo García Cárcel (Requena, 1948) estudió Historia en Valencia bajo el magisterio de Joan Reglà, con quien formó parte del primer profesorado de historia moderna en la Universidad Autónoma de Barcelona. En esta universidad, desde hace prácticamente cincuenta años, ha desarrollado una extraordinaria labor docente y de investigación marcada por un sagaz instinto histórico, que le ha convertido en pionero de casi todo lo que ha estudiado: las Germanías, la historia de la Cataluña moderna, la Inquisición, las culturas del Siglo de Oro, la Leyenda Negra, Felipe II, Felipe V, Austrias y Borbones, la guerra de la Independencia, la historia cultural, los mitos de la historia de España... Muy pocos tienen su capacidad para reflexionar, ordenar, analizar, conceptualizar y proponer una visión amplia y llena de matices sobre el pasado y las interpretaciones historiográficas. A su laboriosidad inimitable se añade una dedicación sin límites en el asesoramiento de alumnos e investigadores e impulsando revistas, dosieres, seminarios o publicaciones colectivas. Una mínima correspondencia a su generosidad lo constituye este volumen a manera de ineludible agradecimiento

Defining a Repository-Catalogue of Styles (SLD) for Cartographic Depiction of Geographic Features as Normalized by Different Organizations

El presente artículo trata sobre la definición de un repositorio-catálogo de estilos aplicables a la representación cartográfica de los distintos fenómenos geográficos, basándose en la simbología normalizada de las distintas Organizaciones Cartográficas, tales como el Instituto Geográfico Nacional, el Ministerio de Medio Ambiente, el Instituto Nacional de Estadística, etc. El catálogo permitirá una elección rápida y sencilla de los diversos estilos utilizados por dichos organismos oficiales. Se trata de definir un repositorio en el que almacenar los estilos individualizados aplicables a los fenómenos geográficos, en el que se disponga de la capacidad de insertar, borrar y actualizar nuevos estilos. El repositorio debe responder como catálogo sobre el que buscar y descargar estilos. Una de las aplicaciones del repositorio-catálogo es la generación de estilos en el formato Style Layer Descriptor (SLD) para ser visualizados mediante Servidores de Mapas en Red conformes con OGC.The present article deals with the definition of a repository-catalogue of styles applicable to the cartographic representation of different geographic features, based on the normalized symbols of the different Cartographic Organizations, such as «Instituto Geográfico Nacional», «Ministerio de Medio Ambiente», «Instituto Nacional de Estadística», etc. The catalogue will allow a quick, choice and a simple identification of the several styles used by these acknowledged institutions. We describe a repository for storage of the individualized styles applicable to the geographic features, in which the capability of insertion, deletion, and update of new styles is made available. The repository must act as a catalogue wherein style searching and downloading may be carried out. One of the applications of the repository-catalogue is the generation of styles in Style Layer Descriptor (SLD) format, in order for them to be visualized by means of Web Map Services according to OGC.Le présent article traite de la définition d’un répertoire-catalogue de styles applicables à la représentation cartographique des différents phénomènes géographiques, en se basant sur la symbolique normalisée des différentes Organisations Cartographiques, telles que l’Institut Géographique National, le Ministère de l’Environnement, le Institut National de Statistique, etc. Le catalogue permettra une élection rapide y simples des divers styles utilisés par les mentionnés organismes officiels. Il s’agit de définir un répertoire dans lequel se retrouvent les styles individualisés applicables aux phénomènes géographiques, en el que se dispose de la capacité de insertion, effacer y actualiser nouveaux styles. El répertoire doit répondre comme catalogue dans lequel chercher et décharger styles. Une des applications du répertoire-catalogue est la génération de styles dans le format StyleLayerDescriptor (SLD) pour être visualisé à travers des Serveurs de Cartes du Réseau conformément à OGC
