2013

Se presenta una revisión bibliográfica, respecto a tratamientos fisioterápicos de los últimos doce años, en personas de género femenino con edad igual o mayor a 65 años, que sufren algún tipo de incontinencia urinaria.

Initial-Stage Suicide Bereavement Experiences: A Case Study.

2022

This study aimed to shed light on the initial-stage bereavement experiences of an individual bereaved by suicide, at three months from the loss of his spouse to suicide.
