La aceptación de la enfermedad: una forma de prevención del SIDA
2002
Poner a prueba la eficacia de un programa de prevención dirigido a la población de personas seropositivas. El programa emplea la intervención entre iguales para incre¬mentar la adaptación positiva de la enfermedad (APE) como elemento facilitador de la implicación en el sexo seguro. El programa incluye información sobre sexo seguro y de riesgo y sobre las vías de transmisión del VlH, así como psicoterapia de grupo combina¬da con técnicas dirigidas al incremento de la conciencia corporal. La conciencia corpo¬ral puede ayudar a los pacientes a liberar tensiones psicológicas, y estimular el afronta¬miento de aquellos aspectos que tratan de negar. Hipotetizamos que la sustitución de estrategias …
Enfermería desde una unidad de conductas adictivas
2004
La unidad de conductas adictivas es un recurso asistencial para drogodependientes desde el que mediante un enfoque biopiscosocial se aborda la deshabituación-desintoxicación de sujetos que sufren cualquier subtipo de patología adictiva (abuso/ dependencia).El equipo profesional de la UCA esta compuesto por un médico, un psicólogo y un ATS/ DUE. Las funciones que se realizan desde el área de enfermería difieren a las que se realizan en otros dispositivos asistenciales de índole sanitaria, debido a la particularidad del colectivo que utiliza el servicio.La intervención que el área sanitaria desempeña en la UCA se vertebraría en tres niveles: individual (paciente), familiar (pareja, etc.) y co…
Genesi geometrica delle volte centriche
1996
Un'analisi completa degli organismi voltati comporta lo studio delle molteplici componenti necessarie alla loro definizione: configurazione geometrica, sistema costruttivo, area storico-geografica di appartenenza, interpretazioni Stilistiche. L’obiettivo di questo studio è indirizzato all' analisi delle volte continue su pianta centrica definibili attraverso le leggi della geometria euclidea. L’indagine si pone all'interno dei confini relativi alla loro configurazione geometrica e il criterio adottato, svincolato da classificazioni di carattere tipologico o stilistico, propone l'identificazione di famiglie geometriche in base alla figura del poligono di base dell'impianto. Si può identifica…
Efficacy of an internet-based psychological intervention for problem gambling and gambling disorder: study protocol for a randomized controlled trial
2021
Gambling Disorder is a prevalent non-substance use disorder, which contrasts with the low number of people requesting treatment. Information and Communication Technologies (ICT) could help to enhance the dissemination of evidence-based treatments and considerably reduce the costs. The current study seeks to assess the efficacy of an online psychological intervention for people suffering from gambling problems in Spain. The proposed study will be a two-arm, parallel-group, randomized controlled trial. A total of 134 participants (problem and pathological gamblers) will be randomly allocated to a waiting list control group (N = 67) or an intervention group (N = 67). The intervention program i…
Down-regulation of Endogenous Amyloid Precursor Protein Processing due to Cellular Aging
2005
Processing of amyloid precursor protein (APP) is a well acknowledged central pathogenic mechanism in Alzheimer disease. However, influences of age-associated cellular alterations on the biochemistry of APP processing have not been studied in molecular detail so far. Here, we report that processing of endogenous APP is down-regulated during the aging of normal human fibroblasts (IMR-90). The generation of intracellular APP cleavage products C99, C83, and AICD gradually declines with increasing life span and is accompanied by a reduced secretion of soluble APP (sAPP) and sAPPalpha. Further, the maturation of APP was reduced in senescent cells, which has been shown to be directly mediated by a…
'I love Rock 'n' Roll'--music genre preference modulates brain responses to music.
2013
The present study examined the effect of participants' music genre preference on the neural processes underlying evaluative and cognitive judgements of music using the event-related potential technique. To this aim, two participant groups differing in their preference for Latin American and Heavy Metal music performed a liking judgement and a genre classification task on a variety of excerpts of either music genre. A late positive potential (LPP) was elicited in all conditions between 600 and 900 ms after stimulus onset. During the genre classification task, an early negativity was elicited by the preferred compared to the non-preferred music at around 230-370 ms whereas the non-preferred g…

Quantification of atelectatic lung volumes in two different porcine models of ARDS.
2006
BACKGROUND: Cyclic recruitment during mechanical ventilation contributes to ventilator associated lung injury. Two different pathomechanisms in acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS) are currently discussed: alveolar collapse vs persistent flooding of small airways and alveoli. We compare two different ARDS animal models by computed tomography (CT) to describe different recruitment and derecruitment mechanisms at different airway pressures: (i) lavage-ARDS, favouring alveolar collapse by surfactant depletion; and (ii) oleic acid ARDS, favouring alveolar flooding by capillary leakage. METHODS: In 12 pigs [25 (1) kg], ARDS was randomly induced, either by saline lung lavage or oleic acid (…
Do ventilatory parameters influence outcome in patients with severe acute respiratory infection? Secondary analysis of an international, multicentre1…
2021
Purpose: To investigate the possible association between ventilatory settings on the first day of invasive mechanical ventilation (IMV) and mortality in patients admitted to the intensive care unit (ICU) with severe acute respiratory infection (SARI). Materials and methods: In this pre-planned sub-study of a prospective, multicentre observational study, 441 patients with SARI who received controlled IMV during the ICU stay were included in the analysis. Results: ICU and hospital mortality rates were 23.1 and 28.1%, respectively. In multivariable analysis, tidal volume and respiratory rate on the first day of IMV were not associated with an increased risk of death; however, higher driving pr…
