Vulnerabilidad cognitiva a la hipocondría: intrusiones, valoraciones y creencias disfuncionales/ Cognitive vulnerability to hypochondriasis: intrusio…
2019
La hipocondría es un trastorno caracterizado por el miedo o la creencia de padecer una enfermedad grave a partir de la interpretación negativa de los signos y síntomas corporales. La confirmación por parte de un médico, después de una evaluación exhaustiva, de que el paciente no padece una enfermedad médica, no tiene como resultado una tranquilización segura y duradera. Por lo general, las personas que presentan hipocondría pueden experimentar una reducción de la ansiedad después de visitar al médico, pero esta reducción dura solo horas o días. Cuando se presenta otro síntoma, la ansiedad reaparece y el ciclo de preocupación hipocondríaca se reanuda. Además, la hipocondría se puede manifest…

Real estate surfaces appraisal
2014
In the appraisal of the market value of the properties are applied two important surface indexes: the market surface ratio of the secondary surfaces and the ratio of the site value to total value (allocation method). The measure of both these indexes can be revealed difficult: the data collection of the surface trade ratio in the market can get different results and in practice often the valuer refolds on the fixed coefficients brought in the handbooks and in the circulars of the public administration; the appraisal of the ratio of the site, especially in the central zones and for ancient buildings, where besides the incidence is higher, is developed extrapolating the ratios from the periph…
La stima immobiliare su larga scala: l’analisi multilevel.
2007
La sistematica dei segmenti del mercato immobiliare comprende segmenti i cui immobili presentano una contiguità spaziale e possono identificarsi nell’isolato, nel quartiere, nell’area lottizzata, nella strada e segmenti i cui immobili sono dislocati nel territorio senza una continuità spaziale. Nel mercato immobiliare, la differenziazione della funzione di stima per segmenti, quartieri, ambiti di mercato o strade, è essenziale per l’interpretazione dei prezzi marginali delle caratteristiche. La stima del valore immobiliare è effettuata tenendo conto della struttura gerarchica dei dati. L’analisi multilevel permette di determinare rette di regressione diverse per i diversi ambiti di mercato.
Nurses' Use of Computerized Clinical Guidelines to Improve Patient Safety in Hospitals.
2015
Computerized clinical guidelines are frequently used to translate research into evidence-based behavioral practices and to improve patient outcomes. The purpose of this integrative review is to summarize the factors influencing nurses’ use of computerized clinical guidelines and the effects of nurses’ use of computerized clinical guidelines on patient safety improvements in hospitals. The Embase, Medline Complete, and Cochrane databases were searched for relevant literature published from 2000 to January 2013. The matrix method was used, and a total of 16 papers were included in the final review. The studies were assessed for quality with the Critical Appraisal Skills Program. The studies …

2020
Background This study aimed to search for scientific evidence concerning the accuracy of computer-assisted analysis for diagnosing odontogenic cysts. Material and Methods A systematic review was conducted according to the PRISMA statements and considering eleven databases, including the grey literature. Protocol was registered in PROSPERO (CRD 42020189349). The PECO strategy was used to define the eligibility criteria and only studies involving diagnostic accuracy were included. Their risk of bias was investigated using the Joanna Briggs Institute Critical Appraisal tool. Results Out of 437 identified citations, five papers, published between 2006 and 2019, fulfilled the criteria and were i…
The role of physical activity and exercise in obesity and weight management: Time for critical appraisal
2016
The prevalence of overweight and obesity has increased dramatically during last 3 decades with devastating consequences to public health. Recommended strategies to reduce obesity have focused on healthier diet and physical activity (PA). Clearly, these approaches have not been successful, but whether this is due to failure to restrict energy intake or to maintain high levels of energy expenditure has been the subject of great controversy. Consequently, there has been a great deal of confusion about the role of PA and exercise in obesity and weight management. In this article, the theoretical basis for considering reduced PA and energy expenditure as the cause of obesity is appraised. Furthe…
Effectiveness of semi-permeable dressings to treat radiation-induced skin reactions. A systematic review
2017
The aim of this systematic review is to assess the available evidence concerning the effectiveness of semi-permeable dressings, on the full range of skin reactions, related to radiation therapy in cancer patients, from local erythema to moist desquamation, including subjective symptoms such as pain, discomfort, itchiness, burning and the effect on daily life activities. The bibliographic search was carried out looking for Randomised Clinical Trials (RCTs) indexed in PubMed, Cinhal, Cochrane plus and Biblioteca Nacional de Salud, published in the English and Spanish language, between 2010 and 2015. Data extraction and evaluation of study quality was undertaken by peer reviewers using the Cri…
Ethical reflections on Evidence Based Medicine
2013
BACKGROUND According to Potter’s point of view, medical ethics is the science of survival, a bridge between humanistic and scientific culture. The working out of judgements on right or wrong referred to the human being are studied by this science. Methodological quality is fundamental in clinical research, and several technical issues are of paramount importance in trying to answer to the final question “what is the true, the right thing?”. We know they are essential aspects as in medical ethics as in evidence based practice. AIM OF THE STUDY The aim of this paper is to talk about relationships and implications between ethical issues and Evidence Based Medicine (EBM). DISCUSSION EBM represe…
The role of long-acting injectable antipsychotics in schizophrenia: a critical appraisal
2014
Despite their widespread use, long-acting injectable (LAI) antipsychotics (APs) are often regarded with some negativity because of the assumption of punishment, control and insufficient evolution towards psychosocial development of patients. However, LAI APs have proved effective in schizophrenia and other severe psychotic disorders because they assure stable blood levels, leading to a reduction of the risk of relapse. Therapeutic opportunities have also arisen after introduction of newer, second-generation LAI APs in recent years. Newer LAI APs are more readily dosed optimally, may be better tolerated and are better suited to integrated rehabilitation programmes. This review outlines the …
