Modelo de Gestión de Calidad de los Departamentos de Orientación Educativa en los Institutos de Educación Secundaria de la Comunidad Valenciana

2015

En la presente investigación se realiza un estudio de los modelos de orientación y calidad, así como las funciones de los orientadores en la Comunidad Valenciana. Una de las aportaciones que realiza este estudio es una clasificación de los modelos de orientación, desde una perspectiva de calidad. La clasificación de los modelos que se propone gira en torno a tres ejes: Modelos básicos; Modelos de intervención; y Modelos de gestión de calidad. Se diseña un cuestionario de percepción, para conocer el grado de cumplimiento e importancia de las funciones. Se realiza un modelo de gestión de calidad y el desarrollo del diseño de un plan de calidad para los departamentos de orientación, que incluy…

Evaluación de una Intervención Mindfulness en Equipos de Cuidados Paliativos

2018

Resumen: El objetivo de este estudio es evaluar los resultados de un programa breve de entrenamiento en mindfulness sobre la atención plena, la autocompasión y la calidad de vida profesional en equipos de cuidados paliativos. Para ello se llevó a cabo un estudio preexperimental pre-post. Participaron 36 profesionales de equipos de cuidados paliativos de Madrid (España). Se midió mindfulness, autocompasión y calidad de vida profesional. Las mediciones se realizaron al inicio y a las dos semanas de finalizada la intervención, que duró seis semanas. Los resultados de aplicación del programa se evaluaron mediante análisis de varianza multivariados (MANOVA). Tras la intervención se observó una m…

Germline Predisposition to Pediatric Cancer, from Next Generation Sequencing to Medical Care

2021

Knowledge about genetic predisposition to pediatric cancer is constantly expanding. The categorization and clinical management of the best-known syndromes has been refined over the years. Meanwhile, new genes for pediatric cancer susceptibility are discovered every year. Our current work shares the results of genetically studying the germline of 170 pediatric patients diagnosed with cancer. Patients were prospectively recruited and studied using a custom panel, OncoNano V2. The well-categorized predisposing syndromes incidence was 9.4%. Likely pathogenic variants for predisposition to the patient’s tumor were identified in an additional 5.9% of cases. Additionally, a high number of pathogen…

Retinoblastoma and other eye tumors in childhood are rare diseases. Many eye tumors are the first signs of a genetic tumor predisposition syndrome and the affected children carry a higher risk of developing other cancers later in life. Clinical and genetic data of all children with eye tumors diagnosed between 2013–2018 in Germany and Austria were collected in a multicenter prospective observational study. In five years, 300 children were recruited into the study: 287 with retinoblastoma, 7 uveal melanoma, 3 ciliary body medulloepithelioma, 2 retinal astrocytoma, 1 meningioma of the optic nerve extending into the eye. Heritable retinoblastoma was diagnosed in 44% of children with retinoblas…

Familial breast cancer in Spain: A retrospective study of family history and clinical/pathologic characteristics from the GEICAM “El Álamo III” proje…

2013

e12513 Background: Family history (FH) of breast cancer (BC), ovarian cancer (OC), and individual features (IF), like early age of onset, bilateral BC, coexistence of BC and OC, and triple negative BC (TNBC) younger than 50 years, are suspicion criteria of hereditary BC. Although it is assumed in the literature that 15-30% of BC cases can be familial BC (FBC), only 5-10% of BC are hereditary, explained by a germline mutation in BRCA1 or 2. Moreover, there is no international consensus to define FBC (e.g. number of relatives affected, age of onset), in contrast with, e.g. Lynch syndrome and Amsterdam/Bethesda criteria, in order to offer genetic counseling. In Spain, there are not population…

Abstract The MASTER (Molecularly Aided Stratification for Tumor Eradication Research) Program of the NCT (National Center for Tumor Diseases) Heidelberg and the DKTK (German Cancer Consortium) is situated at the interface of cancer genomics and clinical oncology to provide whole exome/genome and transcriptome sequencing to selected patients with unmet medical need, and to evaluate the utility of such an approach regarding molecular stratification and individualized, biology-guided treatment. The program has enabled implementation of a shared, DKTK-wide workflow for rapid-turnaround clinical sequencing, comprising all steps from sample processing to reporting of results by a dedicated molecu…

Check in–check out intervention for supporting pupils’ behaviour: effectiveness and feasibility in Finnish schools

2018

Check In–Check Out (CICO) is a support programme for students with externalising problem behaviours. This study implemented in Finland is one of the first reports on the application of CICO in the European context. An experimental, multiple-baseline, single-case design is used to examine the effects of the CICO intervention on the problem behaviour and appropriate behaviour of three general education primary school pupils. The similarity of the observation data and the information provided in daily report card (DRC) are investigated to gauge the validity of the DRC assessments. The fidelity and social validity of the intervention are also analysed. CICO reduced problem behaviour in all pupi…

Reducing disruptive behaviours and improving learning climates with class-wide positive behaviour support in middle schools

2014

Disruptive behaviours in classrooms pose a significant challenge for learning in schools and are, at the same time, a risk factor for students’ academic achievement and a major source for work-related stress among teachers. Earlier research suggests that clarifying the classroom rules and behavioural expectations, monitoring students’ adherence to them and using behaviour-specific praise are simple and effective practices to reduce disruptive behaviour. Most of the interventions have been developed for elementary schools, although behaviour problems tend to be more common in middle schools. This two-month pilot study using a pre–post design evaluated the effects of a class-wide intervention…

Virtual reality in the treatment of claustrophobic fear: A controlled, multiple-baseline design

2000

The aim of this study was to determine the effectiveness of virtual reality (VR) exposure in the treatment of claustrophobic fear. We evaluated the intervention following a controlled, multiple-baseline design across 4 participants with claustrophobic fear who sought psychological help in our anxiety disorders clinic. The treatment consisted of 8 individual VR graded exposure sessions. Data were obtained at pretreatment, posttreatment, and 3-month follow-up on several clinical measures: Behavioral Avoidance Test, Self-Efficacy Toward Closed Spaces, Problem-Related Impairment Questionnaire, Beck Depression Inventory (Beck, 1978), and Anxiety Sensitivity Index (Peterson & Reiss, 1992).
