Español coloquial en clase de ELE: una propuesta didáctica.

El siguiente trabajo tiene como objetivo principal el poner de relevancia la importancia que tiene la variedad coloquial dentro del aula de ELE. Para ello, se ha realizado un breve apartado teórico resaltando las características de esta variedad y, además, se han creado una serie de actividades para poder llevar esta lengua coloquial al aula de ELE. La razón para la creación de estas actividades es que en la mayoría de los manuales de ELE no se trabaja esta variedad. Por otro lado, es relevante que los alumnos sean conscientes de la variedad diafásica en la lengua española y que puedan llevarla a la práctica en los contextos comunicativos adecuados.<br /

La tradición grecolatina en la poesía de Aurora Luque.

El presente trabajo tiene como objetivo principal el análisis de los referentes de la tradición clásica grecolatina en la obra poética de Aurora Luque. Para ello, se van a analizar la totalidad de los poemarios de la autora intentando, con ello, analizar la utilización de mitos, personajes y referentes de esta tradición y cómo la autora consigue, mediante la revisión y actualización de estos, transmitir experiencias vinculadas con el presente contemporáneo desde el que escribe. Asimismo, se intentará estudiar cómo estos van evolucionando y cambiando conforme su obra poética se desarrolla al mismo tiempo que la propia poeta crece.<br /

Grecia y Roma en la poesía de Aurora Luque (Camaradas de Ícaro y La siesta de Epicuro).

Este trabajo tiene como propósito principal el análisis de los referentes de la tradición clásica grecolatina en algunos de los poemas de Aurora Luque. Para ello, se van a analizar textos de dos de los poemarios de la autora: Camaradas de Ícaro y La siesta de Epicuro. En ellos, se va a intentar analizar la utilización de mitos, personajes y referentes de esta tradición y cómo la autora consigue mediante la revisión y actualización de estos transmitir experiencias vinculadas con el presente contemporáneo. <br /

Ice-rafted dropstones at midlatitudes in the Cretaceous of continental Iberia

The Cretaceous is widely considered to have been a period subjected to super-greenhouse conditions. Here, we provide multiscale sedimentologic evidence of glaciers developing at mid-paleolatitudes (∼45°N) in continental Iberia during the Hauterivian cold snap. Striated and faceted ice-rafted glacial dropstones (cobble to boulder size) and striated and grooved silt- to sand-sized grains (ice-rafted debris [IRD]) occur in a lacustrine sequence of the Enciso Group in the eastern Cameros Basin, Spain. The ice-rafted materials constitute the first evidence reported for a Cretaceous continental cryospheric record in Europe, and they are attributed to calving of glacier snouts, releasing icebergs into an ice-contact lake. The sedimentary succession resembles glacial-deglacial records in lakes overridden by the late Pleistocene Laurentide Ice Sheet in eastern Arctic Canada. The Iberian glacial succession was coeval with plateau permafrost in Asia and IRD records in the Arctic and Australia, revealing a stronger than previously thought cryosphere during the global Hauterivian cold snap

Therapy of secondary cutaneous toxicity as a result of radioterapic treatment, with a sH oligopeptide-1 cream based (epidermal growth factor-egf): a pilot study

La dermatitis aguda es muy frecuente en pacientes tratados por neoplasias de mama, cabeza, cuello y tumores cutáneos, debido a las elevadas dosis de radiación administradas, y puede afectar hasta el 95% de los pacientes. Tales efectos pueden disminuir la calidad de vida de los pacientes. El objetivo del presente estudio es valorar como medida profiláctica frente a la radiodermatitis, la eficacia de Radio Cream® de Inves Biofarm. Se reclutaron 20 pacientes que precisaban tratamiento radioterápico, con dosis entre 42,72 Gy y 70 Gy. La crema se aplicó durante todo periodo de tratamiento, 2 veces al día. Se evaluó la toxicidad de la piel mediante los criterios del National Cancer Institute Common Terminology Criteria for Adverse Events (NCI CTCAE), que evalúan lesiones agudas por la radiación en una escala de 0 a 4. Al finalizar el tratamiento se aprecia un porcentaje del 5%, 65% y 30% para la toxicidad grado 0, 1, 2 respectivamente, sin observarse grado 3 ni 4. En el momento de finalizar el tratamiento, un 70% no presentaban prurito y el 30% grado 1. La puntuación media de los pacientes fue de 8,38 en escala de 1 a 10. Podemos estimar que la crema Radio Cream® se ha mostrado como una opción válida para la prevención de radiodermatitis. Puede impedir o retrasar la aparición de la toxicidad cutánea, contribuyendo al mantenimiento de la calidad de vida de los pacientes y permitir completar el tratamiento radioterápico a las dosis prescritas.Acute dermatitis is very common in patients being treated for breast, brain, neck and skin tumours, due to the high doses of radiation administered, and it can affect up to 95% of patients.. These effects can decrease patients’ quality of lifeThe objective of this study is to evaluate the effectiveness of Radio Cream® by Inves Biofarm as a prophylactic measure against radiodermatitis. We recruited twenty patients requiring radiotherapy, with doses between 42.72 Gy and 70 Gy. The cream was applied, twice a day. Skin toxicity was evaluated by the National Cancer Institute Common Terminology Criteria for Adverse Events (NCI CTCAE), which assess acute radiation injuries on a scale of 0 to 4. At the end of the treatment, percentages of 5%, 65% and 30% were observed for toxicity grades 0, 1, and 2 respectively; no cases of grade 3 or 4 were found. When the treatment was finished, 70% had no pruritus and 30% had grade 1. The patients’ average score was 8.38 on a scale of 1 to 10. We can consider that Radio Cream® has proved to be a valid option for preventing radiodermatitis. It can prevent or delay the appearance of cutaneous toxicity, helping to maintain patients’ quality of life and making it possible to complete the radiotherapy at the prescribed doses

Ice-rafted dropstones at midlatitudes in the Cretaceous of continental, Iberia: REPLY

We recently reported glacial dropstones in a glacial–deglacial succession in the Cretaceous of continental Iberia (Rodríguez-López et al., 2024), and here we reply to the Comment by Benito et al. (2024)..

A cluster-randomised clinical trial comparing two cardiovascular health education strategies in a child population: the Savinghearts project

<p>Abstract</p> <p>Background</p> <p>This paper describes a methodology for comparing the effects of an eduentertainment strategy involving a music concert, and a participatory class experience involving the description and making of a healthy breakfast, as educational vehicles for delivering obesity-preventing/cardiovascular health messages to children aged 7–8 years.</p> <p>Methods/design</p> <p>This study will involve a cluster-randomised trial with blinded assessment. The study subjects will be children aged 7–8 years of both sexes attending public primary schools in the Madrid Region. The participating schools (n=30) will be randomly assigned to one of two groups: 1) Group MC, in which the children will attend a music concert that delivers obesity-preventing/cardiovascular health messages, or 2) Group HB, in which the children will attend a participatory class providing the same information but involving the description and making of a healthy breakfast. The main outcome measured will be the increase in the number of correct answers scored on a knowledge questionnaire and in an attitudes test administered before and after the above interventions<it>.</it> The secondary outcome recorded will be the reduction in BMI percentile among children deemed overweight/obese prior to the interventions. The required sample size (number of children) was calculated for a comparison of proportions with an α of 0.05 and a β of 0.20, assuming that the Group MC subjects would show values for the measured variables at least 10% higher than those recorded for the subjects of Group HB. Corrections were made for the design effect and assuming a loss to follow-up of 10%. The maximum sample size required will be 2107 children. Data will be analysed using summary measurements for each cluster, both for making estimates and for hypothesis testing. All analyses will be made on an intention-to-treat basis.</p> <p>Discussion</p> <p>The intervention providing the best results could be recommended as part of health education for young schoolchildren.</p> <p>Trial registration</p> <p>Clinicaltrials.gov: NCT01418872</p
