Current status of the salutogenesis in Spain. Fifteen years of research
2014
Tras siglos de visión patogénica del cuidado de la salud, en los años 70 el sociólogo y médico Aaron Antonovsky introdujo un modelo de salud que con los años se ha convertido en un concepto establecido en la salud pública y la promoción de la salud, la ‘Salutogénesis’, que propone entender la salud como un continuo entre bienestar y enfermedad en lugar de una visión en que salud y enfermedad se excluyen mutuamente, coincidiendo con el actual enfoque de la Organización Mundial de la Salud. Este trabajo tiene como objetivo principal realizar una revisión y análisis de su estudio y utilización en España, donde va introduciéndose de forma progresiva, con más de 10 artículos publicados, una conf…

Cardiovascular Scientific Production in Spain and in the European and Global Context (2003-2007)
2009
Introduction and objectives The publication of research articles has increased considerably in recent years in all biomedical fields. The present study examines the position of Spanish quality research in cardiology in the European and world context, and its evolution during the 5-year period 2003-2007. Methods Using the Science Citation Index Expanded of Thomson Reuters as data source, we compared Spanish cardiovascular scientific production with that of the rest of countries in the European Union and of the most important countries worldwide, along with relative productivity as per number of inhabitants and Gross Domestic Product, and the number of citations in the journals of the Cardiac…
Intercultural integration in the university context of Cuba: psychosocial intervention program for its promotion
2022
La subjetividad es un factor mediador de la producción y reproducción de la contradicción integración - exclusión en el contacto intercultural. El presente estudio tuvo como objetivo proponer un programa de intervención psicosocial, para la promoción de la integración intercultural en la Universidad Central "Marta Abreu" de Las Villas, desde un enfoque histórico-cultural de las mediaciones por la subjetividad. La investigación se adscribió al modelo de investigación interventiva y a un enfoque cualitativo constructivo interpretativo. En este marco, se realizó una sistematización de experiencias y se propuso un programa de intervención psicosocial. El programa para la promoción de la integra…
Telomerase and Telomere Length in Pulmonary Fibrosis
2013
In addition to its expression in stem cells and many cancers, telomerase activity is transiently induced in murine bleomycin (BLM)-induced pulmonary fibrosis with increased levels of telomerase transcriptase (TERT) expression, which is essential for fibrosis. To extend these observations to human chronic fibrotic lung disease, we investigated the expression of telomerase activity in lung fibroblasts from patients with interstitial lung diseases (ILDs), including idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis (IPF). The results showed that telomerase activity was induced in more than 66% of IPF lung fibroblast samples, in comparison with less than 29% from control samples, some of which were obtained from lu…
Survival in Immunocompromised Patients Ultimately Requiring Invasive Mechanical Ventilation: A Pooled Individual Patient Data Analysis
2021
Rationale: Acute respiratory failure (ARF) is associated with high mortality in immunocompromised patients, particularly when invasive mechanical ventilation is needed. Therefore, noninvasive oxygenation/ventilation strategies have been developed to avoid intubation, with uncertain impact on mortality, especially when intubation is delayed. Objectives: We sought to report trends of survival over time in immunocompromised patients receiving invasive mechanical ventilation. The impact of delayed intubation after failure of noninvasive strategies was also assessed. Methods: Systematic review and meta-analysis using individual data (IPD) of studies which focused on immunocompromised adult patie…
253. La pandemia y el Geoforo Iberoamericano en 2020
2021
La pandemia de la COVID-19, que nos afecta desde los primeros meses de 2020, ha modificado nuestras costumbres y rutinas. Y también la manera de relacionarnos en los medios escolares y universitarios. Desde el Geoforo Iberoamericano sobre Educación, Geografía y Sociedad hemos considerado que se abría una oportunidad para re-pensar los problemas sociales y ambientales que condicionan nuestra cotidianidad. Desde el estudio de situaciones particulares hemos querido definir los problemas intelectuales que sean susceptibles de ser trabajados en las aulas. Esta consideración es fruto de la evolución que venimos manteniendo desde 2008 y que se valoró en el Coloquio de 2019 en Bogotá, del cual tamb…
Investigation and management of residual sleepiness in CPAP-treated patients with obstructive sleep apnoea: the European view
2022
International audience; Excessive daytime sleepiness (EDS) is a major symptom of obstructive sleep apnoea (OSA), defined as the inability to stay awake during the day. Its clinical descriptors remain elusive, and the pathogenesis is complex, with disorders such as insufficient sleep and depression commonly associated. Subjective EDS can be evaluated using the Epworth Sleepiness Scale, in which the patient reports the probability of dozing in certain situations; however, its reliability has been challenged. Objective tests such as the multiple sleep latency test or the maintenance of wakefulness test are not commonly used in patients with OSA, since they require nocturnal polysomnography, da…
Exploring Associations Between Respiratory Mechanics and Survival in Immunocompromised Patients With ARDS.
2020
Thanks to improvements in organ support strategies and to advances in the treatment of solid and hematological tumors, outcome of immunocompromised patients requiring ICU admission has improved impressively over the last decade . For this reason, the number of immunocompromised patients admitted to the ICU and deemed candidates for invasive therapies is steadily increasing. Acute respiratory failure (ARF) is the leading cause of hospital and ICU admission, but the optimal first-line reatment of respiratory failure in these patients remains to be determined
