Safety and Tolerance Evaluation of Milk Fat Globule Membrane-Enriched Infant Formulas: A Randomized Controlled Multicenter Non-Inferiority Trial in H…
2014
ObjectiveThis multicenter non-inferiority study evaluated the safety of infant formulas enriched with bovine milk fat globule membrane (MFGM) fractions.MethodsHealthy, full-term infants ( n = 119) age ≤14 days were randomized to standard infant formula (control), standard formula enriched with a lipid-rich MFGM fraction (MFGM-L), or standard formula enriched with a protein-rich MFGM fraction (MFGM-P). Primary outcome was mean weight gain per day from enrollment to age 4 months (non-inferiority margin: –3.0 g/day). Secondary (length, head circumference, tolerability, morbidity, adverse events) and exploratory (phospholipids, metabolic markers, immune markers) outcomes were also evaluated.Res…
La cartera de los libros y la mesa de estudiar

¿Cuántas personas padecen en mayor o menor grado, trastornos y dolores de espalda? ¿Cuántas están al corriente de los riesgos que comporta la realización de esfuerzos en condiciones posturales desfavorables? ¿Cuántas son conscientes de que una postura incorrecta mantenida durante tiempo, en tareas aparentemente no penosas, puede llegar a producir lesiones acumulativas graves? Éstos no son problemas exclusivos de las personas de edad avanzada, sino que jóvenes y de edad media, también las sufren con frecuencia si no adoptan las precauciones debidas. Conocemos la conformación de la columna vertebral, sus funciones y su importancia pero quizás no hemos sido debidamente instruidos en las postur…
¿Se puede prevenir la obesidad infantil? Evaluación de una intervención educativa dirigida a fomentar hábitos saludables
2022
En los últimos años la sociedad ha sufrido grandes cambios, y, estos, afectan los hábitos saludables que practican las personas. Es por eso, que la obesidad infantil se ha convertido en un importante problema de salud pública. Por lo tanto, la escuela adquiere un papel fundamental: promover los hábitos saludables alimenticios en los niños y las niñas desde su comienzo en ella. Este trabajo gira en torno a una serie de actividades realizadas durante unas semanas del curso 2021 – 2022. En un grupo de alumnos/as de 5 a 6 años provenientes de un colegio situado en la población de Alberic (Valencia). Dada la necesidad observada de un grupo de alumnos/as que presentaba carencias en sus hábitos al…

Septo-optic dysplasia and schizencephaly: a case report
2012
Introduction: Septo-optic dysplasia (SOD) is an uncommon developmental disorder involving variable midline brain structures, characterized by optic nerve hypoplasia, dysgenesis of septum pellucidum and pituitary- hypothalamic dysfunction with consequent endocrine deficits. The association of septo-optic dysplasia and cortical dysplasia is described as septo-optic dysplasia-plus. Reports on patients with septo-optic dysplasia-plus have been rare. Other distinct features, which occur especially when cerebral cortical abnormalities are also present (SOD- plus), consist of significant generalized developmental delay and/or spastic motor deficits. Methods: We report a 10-year-old boy with septo-…
Alumnado con tumores intracraneales : el papel de la escuela en la mejora de la calidad de vida y en la rehabilitación de los efectos tardíos de la e…
2012
Resumen tomado de la publicación. - El artículo forma parte del monográfico de la revista dedicado a: Diversidad y Educación Se describen los efectos tardíos provocados por la enfermedad y los tratamientos en los niños con tumores intracraneales. Los efectos tardíos abarcan múltiples aspectos: médicos, neurocognitivos/educativos y sociales /comportamentales. La escuela desempeña un papel importante en la prevención, evaluación y rehabilitación de las secuelas, contribuyendo a la mejora de la calidad de vida del niño superviviente de un tumor intracraneal. Su trabajo debe ser multidisciplinar, siendo necesaria la actuación coordinada de los servicios sanitarios y educativos, y la colaboració…
Sensory-Adapted Dental Environment for the Treatment of Patients with Autism Spectrum Disorder.
2022
Purpose: The importance of dental care and oral hygiene is often underestimated in people with autism spectrum disorder (ASD). Comorbidity with dental anxiety is greater in ASD subjects who also show unusual reactions to sensory stimuli. The aim of our study was to assess the efficacy for a sensory-adapted environment and targeted methods in reducing anxiety and positively influencing cooperation in children with ASD during a dental examination or specific treatments. Material and methods: The sample consisted of 50 Italian children with a diagnosis of ASD (36 males and 14 females; aged 9–10 years) presenting with mild intellectual disability (ID) and verbal language skills. The subjects en…
Identification of a new nonsense mutation (Tyr129Stop) of the SRY gene in a newborn infant with XY sex-reversal.
2004
Point mutations and deletions of SRY gene have been described in several cases of XY gonadal dysgenesis. To date, most of these mutations affect the HMG domain of SRY which plays a central role in DNA binding activity of SRY. We report on a non-mosaic XY sex-reversed newborn girl (completely female external genitalia). The direct sequencing of SRY showed a new nonsense mutation in a codon of SRY gene flanking the 3' end of the HMG domain: a thymine is replaced by a guanine at position +387 in codon 129, resulting in the replacement of the amino acid tyrosine (TAT) by a stop codon (TAG). The new mutation of this patient provides further evidence to support the functional importance of the pu…

Long-Term Educational Sustainability: Educational Innovation in Social Vulnerability Contexts
2017
This paper investigates the behavior of children from low socioeconomic status families and examines the effects of a socioemotional education program on aggression in children. The results of the program are compared according to the children’s gender and age, the family structure, the parents’ educational attainment, and social status. The results show that applying socioemotional education programs reduces children’s aggression and encourages positive development during adolescence. This positive development fosters open, expressive behavior.
