Llengua i cultura per a nouvinguts: l'Horta de València
2020
Aquesta unitat didàctica (UD) està dirigida als estudiants universitaris nouvinguts que ja han tingut algun contacte (acadèmic o social) amb la llengua (nivells A1+/A2). S’organitza en sis sessions de 50 minuts i està dissenyada per dur-la a terme mitjançant docència en línia, amb classes virtuals i treball autònom supervisat. Així doncs, està pensada per treballar-hi en ordinador (o un altre dispositiu com les tauletes), ja que tots els fragments subratllats contenen enllaços a continguts complementaris. Òbviament, també està preparada per poder ser impresa.
Modeling Political Corruption in Spain
2021
Political corruption is a universal phenomenon. Even though it is a cross-country reality, its level of intensity and the manner of its effect vary worldwide. In Spain, the demonstrated political corruption cases that have been echoed by the media in recent years for their economic, judicial and social significance are merely the tip of the iceberg as regards a problem hidden by many interested parties, plus the shortage of the means to fight against it. This study models and quantifies the population at risk of committing political corruption in Spain by identifying and quantifying the drivers that explain political corruption. Having quantified the problem, the model allows changes to be …
Long-term observation of hepatocellular carcinoma recurrence after liver transplantation at a European transplantation centre
2019
BACKGROUND: The recurrence of hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) is the strongest survival-limiting factor after liver transplantation (LT) in patients with HCC. In the face of donor organ shortage, it is necessary to identify factors associated with HCC recurrence in order to maximize the utility of the available grafts. OBJECTIVE: To study the phenomenon of HCC recurrence after LT at a European transplantation centre over the past 20 years. METHODS: Data from 304 HCC patients who underwent LT were prospectively recorded. Clinical and pathological factors were assessed for their association with recurrence. RESULTS: Fifty-one patients (16.8%) had HCC recurrence after LT. Patients exceeding the…
Diet-disease relationships : recent advances in nutritional epidemiology
2020
Nutritional epidemiology currently studies the diet-disease relationships. In order to evaluate these associations, an accurate estimation of nutritional exposure is essential. Traditional dietary questionnaires are being complemented with the measurement of nutritional biomarkers. New methodologies, including the use of new dietary assessments, metabolomics for increasing the quantity and quality of biomarkers, and statistical approaches to combine both techniques, are required to move forward this field. In this review, we have selected five of the more relevant accomplishments in this field as examples of the importance of dietary factors in the prevention of non-communicable diseases. T…

Use of Marginal Donors in Kidney Transplantation: Our Experience
2006
The use of elderly donors has been advocated to expand the organ donor pool because of increased needs and the organ shortage. The aim of this study was to analyze whether the use of elderly donors and marginal kidneys affected the outcome of renal transplantations. Herein we presented data on 126 kidney transplantations performed from January 1996 to September 2003 using 32 marginal donors (group A) and 94 ideal donors (group B). We analyzed the medical and surgical complications and the graft survivals at a median follow-up of 18 months. Medical and surgical complications occurred in 22% and 5% versus 7% and 4% in groups A and B, respectively. The mean cold ischemia time and the mean age …
Should kidney allografts from old donors be allocated only to old recipients?
2020
Contains fulltext : 226016.pdf (Publisher’s version ) (Closed access) In several deceased donor kidney allocation systems, organs from elderly donors are allocated primarily to elderly recipients. The Eurotransplant Senior Program (ESP) was implemented in 1999, and since then, especially in Europe, the use of organs from elderly donors has steadily increased. The proportion of ≥60-year-old donors reported to the Collaborative Transplant Study (CTS) by European centers has doubled, from 21% in 2000-2001 to 42% in 2016-2017. Therefore, in the era of organ shortage it is a matter of debate whether kidney organs from elderly donors should only be allocated to elderly recipients or whether <65-y…
Scholarly publishing depends on peer reviewers
2018
The peer-review crisis is posing a risk to the scholarly peer-reviewed journal system. Journals have to ask many potential peer reviewers to obtain a minimum acceptable number of peers accepting reviewing a manuscript. Several solutions have been suggested to overcome this shortage. From reimbursing for the job, to eliminating pre-publication reviews, one cannot predict which is more dangerous for the future of scholarly publishing. And, why not acknowledging their contribution to the final version of the article published? PubMed created two categories of contributors: authors [AU] and collaborators [IR]. Why not a third category for the peer-reviewer? published

Los nuevos derechos sociales: El derecho al cuidado como fundamento del pacto constitucional
2016
ResumenNos encontramos ante un momento histórico y político que sugiere una revisión constitucional, con necesidades específicas y diferentes a las de 1978. Existen nuevas demandas que exigen que se revise el pacto constitucional. Algunas afectan directamente al catálogo de derechos, especialmente a los llamados derechos sociales, y se refieren por un lado, a la necesidad de otorgar a los derechos sociales ya reconocidos la consideración de fundamentales con todo lo que ello conlleva; y por otro, a la necesidad de crear nuevos derechos. El previsible aumento de personas necesitadas de cuidados, la escasez de servicios públicos para su asistencia, el tipo de cuidado informal prestado casi ex…
