CT angiography for the assessment of EVAR complications : a pictorial review
2022
Aortic aneurysm; Blood vessel prosthesis implantation; Endovascular procedures Aneurisma aórtico; Implantación de prótesis de vasos sanguíneos; Procedimientos endovasculares Aneurisma aòrtic; Implantació de pròtesis de vasos sanguinis; Procediments endovasculars Endovascular aneurysm repair (EVAR) is a minimally invasive treatment proposed as an alternative to open repair in patients with abdominal aortic aneurysms. EVAR consists in a stent-graft placement within the aorta in order to exclude the aneurysm from arterial circulation and reduce the risk of rupture. Knowledge of the various types of devices is mandatory because some stents/grafts are more frequently associated with complication…
Prognosis Impact of Diabetes in Elderly Women and Men with Non-ST Elevation Acute Coronary Syndrome
2021
Few studies have addressed to date the interaction between sex and diabetes mellitus (DM) in the prognosis of elderly patients with non-ST-segment elevation acute coronary syndrome (NSTEACS). Our aim was to address the role of DM in the prognosis of non-selected elderly patients with NSTEACS according to sex. A retrospective analysis from 11 Spanish NSTEACS registries was conducted, including patients aged ≥70 years. The primary end point was one-year all-cause mortality. A total of 7211 patients were included, 2,770 (38.4%) were women, and 39.9% had DM. Compared with the men, the women were older (79.95 ± 5.75 vs. 78.45 ± 5.43 years, p <
mHealth for the Monitoring of Brace Compliance and Wellbeing in Adolescents with Idiopathic Scoliosis: Study Protocol for a Feasibility Study
2021
Escoliosis idiopática del adolescente; Aplicación móvil; Eficacia del tratamiento Escoliosi idiopàtica de l'adolescent; Aplicació mòbil; Eficàcia del tractament Adolescent idiopathic scoliosis; Mobile application; Treatment effectiveness Attempts to optimize monitoring of brace adherence prescribed to adolescents with idiopathic scoliosis (IS) have generally relied on sensors. Sensors, however, are intrusive and do not allow the assessment of psychological and physical consequences of brace use that might underlie poor adherence. Mobile applications have emerged as alternatives to monitor brace compliance. However, the feasibility and utility of these app-based systems to assess key psychol…
Aprendizaje colaborativo en entornos virtuales: los equipos y comunidades virtuales
2017
Las organizaciones están inmersas en un panorama competitivo y dinámico que ha fomentado una evolución en el funcionamiento de las organizaciones (Salas, Kozlowski, y Chen, 2017). Hoy en día, las organizaciones se enfrentan a la necesidad de innovar y aprender para competir y sobrevivir, teniendo que desarrollar tareas que son más complejas que antes (McDermott y Archibald, 2010; Ployhart, 2012). En consecuencia, el trabajo ha cambiado de un esfuerzo individual, a un esfuerzo de grupo. Por ello, las organizaciones organizan el trabajo en grupos, facilitando la la colaboración de varias personas con talento y conocimiento, lo que genera un valioso aprendizaje para las organizaciones (Mathieu…
Shakedown Analysis by Elastic Simulation
2000
Shakedown analysis of elastic plastic structures is widely credited as a valuable analytical/numerical tool for design purposes. For complex structures and loading conditions, e. g. for fast breeder nuclear reactor plants, full inelastic analysis is rarely performed, practically never within the early stages of the design advancement and the inherent decision process. The essential information therein needed can in fact be obtained, at moderate computational costs, by application of the shakedown methods and rules, at least within some limits related to the present developments of shakedown theory and its applicability to practical engineering problems, see e. g. Ponter et al. (1990), Carte…
Relación entre factores situacionales derivados de la competición y la conducta verbal de entrenadores de balonmano
2012
El objetivo del siguiente trabajo de investigación fue el de analizar las relaciones existentes entre diversos factores situacionales (tipo de acción previa, fase de partido y marcador) y la conducta verbal de entrenadores de balonmano en situación de competición. Borrie (1996) indica que el análisis científico del comportamiento del entrenador es fundamental para el continuo desarrollo de entrenadores de calidad. En cuanto a la relación que plantea este trabajo entre la conducta verbal del entrenador y los factores derivados de la competición, Moreno, Santos, Fuentes y Del Villar (2000) indican que la información aportada por los entrenadores durante la competición es una variable de proce…
An Alternative to Medial Axis for the 3D Reconstruction of Unorganized Set of Points Using Implicit Surfaces
2006
Rebuilding three-dimensional objects represented by a set of points is a classical problem in computer graphics. Multiple applications like medical imaging or industrial techniques require finding shape from scattered data. Therefore, the reconstruction of a set of points that represents a shape has been widely studied, depending on data source and reconstruction's objectives. This purpose of this paper is to provide an automatic reconstruction from an unorganized cloud describing an unknown shape in order to provide a solution that will allow to compute the object's volume and to deform it with constant volume. The main idea in this paper consists in filling the object's interior with an e…
¿Cómo aprender a trabajar en equipos integrados? El papel del aprendizaje cooperativo en la formación de directivos
2009
En la literatura de dirección estratégica, la investigación que explica los resultados de los equipos enfatiza el papel de los procesos y, concretamente, del comportamiento integrador. Por otro lado, en educación superior el trabajo en equipo es una herramienta aceptada y en extensión pero con usos heterogéneos y resultados dispares. El objetivo de este trabajo es demostrar que el aprendizaje cooperativo, como parte integral del proceso de aprendizaje, permite adquirir un mejor nivel de comportamiento integrador a los miembros del equipo. Analizando el comportamiento integrador en 101 estudiantes que utilizaron aprendizaje cooperativo y comparándolos con 120 de un grupo de control demostram…
Biases in study design, implementation, and data analysis that distort the appraisal of clinical benefit and ESMO-Magnitude of Clinical Benefit Scale…
2021
BACKGROUND: The European Society for Medical Oncology-Magnitude of Clinical Benefit Scale (ESMO-MCBS) is a validated, widely used tool developed to score the clinical benefit from cancer medicines reported in clinical trials. ESMO-MCBS scores assume valid research methodologies and quality trial implementation. Studies incorporating flawed design, implementation, or data analysis may generate outcomes that exaggerate true benefit and are not generalisable. Failure to either indicate or penalise studies with bias undermines the intention and diminishes the integrity of ESMO-MCBS scores. This review aimed to evaluate the adequacy of the ESMO-MCBS to address bias generated by flawed design, im…
Presenting signs and patient co-variables in Gaucher disease: outcome of the Gaucher Earlier Diagnosis Consensus (GED-C) Delphi initiative.
2019
Background: Gaucher disease (GD) presents with a range of signs and symptoms. Physicians can fail to recognise the early stages of GD owing to a lack of disease awareness, which can lead to significant diagnostic delays and sometimes irreversible but avoidable morbidities. Aim: The Gaucher Earlier Diagnosis Consensus (GED-C) initiative aimed to identify signs and co-variables considered most indicative of early type 1 and type 3 GD, to help non-specialists identify ‘at-risk’ patients who may benefit from diagnostic testing. Methods: An anonymous, three-round Delphi consensus process was deployed among a global panel of 22 specialists in GD (median experience 17.5 years, collectively managin…
