Violencia escolar entre iguales y violencia de pareja en adolescentes: análisis de sus relaciones y elaboración de un programa para su prevención con…
2019
Antecedentes: Las conductas agresivas en las relaciones con los iguales y con la pareja presentan una elevada prevalencia y una repercusión muy negativa en la salud mental de los adolescentes (Katsaras et al., 2018; Shorey et al., 2018). Ambas problemáticas han sido tradicionalmente investigadas de forma separada, y muy pocos estudios han explorado posibles variables explicativas comunes. No obstante, algunos estudios previos han mostrado que en ambas situaciones de violencia el agresor pretende, mediante sus agresiones reiteradas a la víctima, alcanzar un cierto dominio y control sobre ella (Cava, 2013; Olweus, 1993; Ovejero, Yubero, Larrañaga y Navarro, 2013). Asimismo, ciertos esquemas c…
Estudio comparativo de la transmisión de la presión ejercida por la tuberosidad posterior del calcáneo en los apósitos de espuma de poliuretano
2015
Las úlceras por compresión en el talón son las segundas más prevalentes dado que esta localización anatómica presenta unas características inherentes que la hacen más vulnerable a la isquemia. La prevención de estas úlceras, al igual que en cualquier problema de salud, es el principal caballo de batalla en el ámbito clínico asistencial, ya sea a nivel hospitalario o en la comunidad. La aplicación de apósitos de espuma de poliuretano con formas adaptadas al talón es una realidad clínica, que tiene como objetivo prevenir este tipo de lesiones. Esta realidad asistencial concuerda con multitud de guías de práctica clínica publicadas en España. No obstante, tanto en publicaciones de organismos i…
Globorotalia truncatulinoides in the Mediterranean Basin during the Middle–Late Holocene: Bio-Chronological and Oceanographic Indicator
2022
The planktonic foraminiferal species Globorotalia truncatulinoides is widely used as a biostratigraphic proxy for the Quaternary in the Mediterranean region. High-resolution quantitative studies performed on sediment cores collected in the central and western Mediterranean Sea evidence a significant abundance of G. truncatulinoides during the Middle Holocene. The robust chronological frame allows us to date this bio-event to 4.8–4.4 ka Before Present (BP), very close to the base of the Meghalayan stage (4.2 ka BP). As a consequence, we propose that G. truncatulinoides can be considered a potential marker for the Middle–Late Holocene chronological subdivision. G. truncatulinoides is a deep-d…
Cardiovascular and Renal Outcomes of Renin–Angiotensin System Blockade in Adult Patients with Diabetes Mellitus: A Systematic Review with Network Met…
2016
Background Medications aimed at inhibiting the renin–angiotensin system (RAS) have been used extensively for preventing cardiovascular and renal complications in patients with diabetes, but data that compare their clinical effectiveness are limited. We aimed to compare the effects of classes of RAS blockers on cardiovascular and renal outcomes in adults with diabetes. Methods and Findings Eligible trials were identified by electronic searches in PubMed/MEDLINE and the Cochrane Database of Systematic Reviews (1 January 2004 to 17 July 2014). Interventions of interest were angiotensin-converting enzyme (ACE) inhibitors, angiotensin receptor blockers (ARBs), and direct renin (DR) inhibitors. T…

'I love Rock 'n' Roll'--music genre preference modulates brain responses to music.
2013
The present study examined the effect of participants' music genre preference on the neural processes underlying evaluative and cognitive judgements of music using the event-related potential technique. To this aim, two participant groups differing in their preference for Latin American and Heavy Metal music performed a liking judgement and a genre classification task on a variety of excerpts of either music genre. A late positive potential (LPP) was elicited in all conditions between 600 and 900 ms after stimulus onset. During the genre classification task, an early negativity was elicited by the preferred compared to the non-preferred music at around 230-370 ms whereas the non-preferred g…
The Relationship Between Goal Orientation, Social Comparison Responses, Self-Efficacy, and Performance
2008
The present study examined whether social comparison responses (identification and contrast in social comparison) mediated the relationship between goal orientation (promotion and prevention) and self-efficacy, and whether self-efficacy was subsequently related with a better performance. As expected, the results showed that promotion-oriented individuals – who are focused on achieving success – had higher self-efficacy than prevention-oriented individuals – who are focused on avoiding failure. Only one of the social comparison responses had a mediating role. That is, the tendency to contrast oneself with others who were doing better mediated the relationship between a prevention goal orien…
Some awkward issues on pairwise comparison matrices
2017
Many decision-making techniques use pairwise comparisons (PCs) elicited by one or more stakeholders involved in a given corresponding decision-making process. In very complex problems, the number of criteria or options to be compared may be too large, thus limiting PC applicability to large-scale decision problems due to the so-called curse of dimensionality, that is, a large number of pairwise comparisons need to be produced from a decision maker. For example, in AHP, Saaty [1] recommends that to obtain a reasonable and consistent PC matrix, the number of comparing elements should be at most seven. In [2] and [3], arguing on limitations of the human capabilities, the maximum number of elem…

Measurement of the AtmosphericνeSpectrum with IceCube
2015
We present a measurement of the atmospheric $\nu_e$ spectrum at energies between 0.1 TeV and 100 TeV using data from the first year of the complete IceCube detector. Atmospheric $\nu_e$ originate mainly from the decays of kaons produced in cosmic-ray air showers. This analysis selects 1078 fully contained events in 332 days of livetime, then identifies those consistent with particle showers. A likelihood analysis with improved event selection extends our previous measurement of the conventional $\nu_e$ fluxes to higher energies. The data constrain the conventional $\nu_e$ flux to be $1.3^{+0.4}_{-0.3}$ times a baseline prediction from a Honda's calculation, including the knee of the cosmic-…
