Genetic association study of childhood aggression across raters, instruments, and age
2021
AbstractChildhood aggressive behavior (AGG) has a substantial heritability of around 50%. Here we present a genome-wide association meta-analysis (GWAMA) of childhood AGG, in which all phenotype measures across childhood ages from multiple assessors were included. We analyzed phenotype assessments for a total of 328 935 observations from 87 485 children aged between 1.5 and 18 years, while accounting for sample overlap. We also meta-analyzed within subsets of the data, i.e., within rater, instrument and age. SNP-heritability for the overall meta-analysis (AGGoverall) was 3.31% (SE = 0.0038). We found no genome-wide significant SNPs for AGGoverall. The gene-based analysis returned three sign…
International BEAT-PCD Consensus Statement for Infection Prevention and Control for Primary Ciliary Dyskinesia in collaboration with ERN-LUNG PCD Cor…
2021
Introduction In primary ciliary dyskinesia (PCD) impaired mucociliary clearance leads to recurrent airway infections and progressive lung destruction, and concern over chronic airway infection and patient-to-patient transmission is considerable. So far, there has been no defined consensus on how to control infection across centres caring for patients with PCD. Within the BEAT-PCD network, COST Action and ERS CRC together with the ERN-Lung PCD core a first initiative has now been taken towards creating such a consensus statement. Methods A multidisciplinary international PCD expert panel was set up to create a consensus statement for infection prevention and control (IP&C) for PCD, covering …
Estudio hospitalario del vértigo y mareo: aspectos clínicos y radiológicos
2020
Esta tesis doctoral trabaja sobre pacientes remitidos a cualquier especialidad de un hospital sin unidad de otoneurología por los síntomas vértigo y mareo. En una primera parte se analizan sus características demográficas y clínicas y se evalúan las derivaciones con el fin de obtener datos que permitan mejorar la calidad asistencial. También se analizan las pruebas de imagen realizadas en los pacientes con vértigo y mareo, para poder determinar su utilidad y establecer recomendaciones. Las conclusiones se resumen en los siguientes puntos: En el hospital hay una tasa anual de 1,6 primeras visitas por cada 1000 habitantes debido a los síntomas vértigo y mareo. De todos los pacientes derivados…
Cáncer en los primeros 18 meses de vida
2020
Resumen: Introducción: La enfermedad oncohematológica continúa siendo la primera causa de mortalidad no traumática en la infancia y una importante causa de morbilidad. El paciente menor de 18 meses presenta particularidades clínicas, diagnósticas y terapéuticas que es interesante conocer por todo pediatra, con el fin de lograr una mayor supervivencia y una menor comorbilidad a lo largo de su vida. Material y métodos: Estudio descriptivo retrospectivo de variables clínicas, diagnósticas y terapéuticas en pacientes menores de 18 meses diagnosticados de enfermedad oncohematológica que reciben quimioterapia en una unidad de oncología pediátrica entre enero 2007 y agosto 2019. Resultados: Setent…
Convergent and discriminative validity of the Frail-VIG index with the EQ-5D-3L in people cared for in primary health care
2021
Abstract Background The Frail-VIG frailty index has been developed recently. It is an instrument with a multidimensional approach and a pragmatic purpose that allows rapid and efficient assessment of the degree of frailty in the context of clinical practice. Our aim was to investigate the convergent and discriminative validity of the Frail-VIG frailty index with regard to EQ-5D-3L value. Methods We carried out a cross-sectional study in two Primary Health Care (PHC) centres of the Catalan Institute of Health (Institut Català de la Salut), Barcelona (Spain) from February 2017 to January 2019. Participants in the study were all people included under a home care programme during the study peri…
Effectiveness of direct contact intervention with people with mental illness to reduce stigma in nursing students
2019
People with mental illnesses are at a higher risk than the general population of suffering from somatic diseases. However, they receive less attention from healthcare services. Some studies have indicated that this situation can be partially explained by the stigmatizing attitudes of health professionals, including nurses. With the objective to improve future nursing professionals’ attitudes towards people with mental illnesses, an intervention involving direct contact with people who had lived experience with mental illnesses was designed and its effectiveness was measured. It consisted of a single 90-min session involving a mental health professional, a person with a mental illness, and a…

Estudios clínicos sobre la enfermedad celíaca (2014-2019): revisión sistemática de la prevalencia de la presentación clínica y enfermedades asociadas…
2020
Introducción: La enfermedad celíaca (EC) se caracteriza por una gran variedad de signos, síntomas y enfermedades asociadas en su forma de presentación, incluso puede cursar de forma asintomática. Recientes estudios muestran la variación del espectro clínico según la edad. En niños y niñas pequeñas predomina la forma clásica con síntomas como distensión abdominal, disminución del apetito, diarrea y pérdida de peso. Las manifestaciones atípicas frecuentes en niños mayores son dolor abdominal, estreñimiento, reflujo, vómitos, fatiga, talla baja. En adultos se observa una reducción de la forma de presentación clásica e incremento de la no clásica.Material y métodos: Se realizó una revisión sist…
Cancer in the first 18 months of life
2020
Introduction: Oncological-haematological disease continues to be the first cause of non-traumatic mortality in childhood, as well as a significant cause of morbidity. The patient less than 18-months-old has special clinical, diagnostic, and therapeutic features that all paediatricians are interested in determining, with the aim of achieving greater survival and a lower morbidity throughout the lives of their patients. Material and methods: A retrospective, descriptive study was carried out using the clinical, diagnostic, and therapeutic variables in patients less than 18-months-old diagnosed with an oncological-haematological that received chemotherapy in a Paediatric Oncology Unit between …
Interventions aimed at reducing obsessive-compulsive symptoms in people with autism spectrum disorder: A review
2021
espanolEl trastorno del espectro autista (TEA) es un trastorno del neurodesarrollo caracterizado por deficits en la comunicacion e interaccion social y por comportamientos restrictivos y repetitivos. Presenta una elevada comorbilidad con otros trastornos, de hasta un 37% con el trastorno obsesivo compulsivo (TOC) en pacientes jovenes. El TOC se caracteriza por pensamientos e ideas recurrentes que llevan a la persona a realizar acciones compulsivas para disminuir el nivel de ansiedad que estos pensamientos le generan. Este trabajo presenta una revision de los metodos psicologicos de intervencion utilizados, asi como de la efectividad de los mismos, en la reduccion de los sintomas del TOC com…
