La acción social en los tiempos de la calidad y el management. Un diagnóstico desde la mirada del Trabajo Social
2022
El Tercer Sector de Acción Social (TSAS) se constituye como un agente imprescindible en la provisión de bienestar a la ciudadanía. Sus prácticas deben alcanzar las cotas de calidad más altas posibles. Es una cuestión ética. Los sistemas de gestión de calidad pueden ser una herramienta que facilite la toma de decisiones para alcanzar estas cotas. El propósito de esta Tesis es proporcionar un diagnóstico, desde el posicionamiento de la disciplina del Trabajo Social, sobre la implantación de los sistemas de gestión de calidad en las entidades del TSAS en España y, a partir del mismo, proporcionar estrategias de intervención que faciliten la implantación y mantenimiento de la gestión con calida…
The success of Agronomy for Sustainable Development: from IF 0.566 rank 29/53 to IF 2.9 rank 4/75
2012
Scientific journals are facing an increasing competition directly impacting publishers and editorial boards. In addition, access to scientific information and reading patterns have deeply changed. From 2003 the journal Agronomy for Sustainable Development (ASD) has adapted its editorial policy to this highly competitive and moving environment in order to stand out and improve its impact (1). The scope, language and title of the journal were modified. A preselection step was introduced, several calls for reviews were made and spin-off books were published (2). Particular attention was given to abstracts, titles, colour figures and photos. A sister book series named Sustainable Agriculture Re…
L'espansione delle specie legnose esotiche negli habitat naturali e seminaturali: un problema di gestione forestale attuale
2018
Le specie esotiche invasive si diffondono soprattutto in aree antropizzate, dove riescono ad occupare spazi lasciati liberi dalle specie autoctone e dalle comunità da esse edificate. In questi ultimi anni, tuttavia, numerose specie arboree ed arbustive esotiche si stanno diffondendo in Italia, oltre che in ambienti disturbati, anche in aree naturali e semi-naturali. È questo il caso dell’ailanto (Ailanthus altissima (Mill.) Swingle), una delle specie arboree esotiche invasive più diffuse e dannose negli ecosistemi forestali temperati e mediterranei di tutto il mondo. Dal punto di vista ecologico, l’ailanto mostra tutti i caratteri tipici delle specie pioniere arboree: rapido accrescimento i…

Immunogenicity and safety of a quadrivalent high-dose inactivated influenza vaccine compared with a standard-dose quadrivalent influenza vaccine in h…
2021
A quadrivalent high-dose inactivated influenza vaccine (IIV4-HD) is licensed for adults ≥65 y of age based on immunogenicity and efficacy studies. However, IIV4-HD has not been evaluated in adults aged 60–64 y. This study compared immunogenicity and safety of IIV4-HD with a standard-dose quadrivalent influenza vaccine (IIV4-SD) in adults aged ≥60 y. This Phase III, randomized, modified double-blind, active-controlled study enrolled 1,528 participants aged ≥60 y, randomized 1:1 to a single injection of IIV4-HD or IIV4-SD. Hemagglutination inhibition (HAI) geometric mean titers (GMTs) were measured at baseline and D 28 and seroconversion assessed. Safety was described for 180 d after vaccinat…
Double blind randomized clinical trial comparing minimally- invasive envelope flap and conventional envelope flap on impacted lower third molar surge…
2022
The latest trend in surgery is to look for minimally invasive procedures, with fewer complications and a shorter recovery time. This study aims to compare the minimally- invasive envelope flap, with smaller incision and fewer dissection and the conventional envelope flap, with a 20mm incision, on impacted mandibular third molar surgery, focusing on the hypothesis that there were no differences in postoperative outcomes. A double-blind randomized clinical trial was designed to compare both incisions, focused on determining the approach with minor postoperative side-effects and minor impact on quality-of-life. A total of 60 patients were enrolled for the study if their presented impacted mand…
Efectos de piretroides utilizados para el control del piojo de mar en la práctica de la salmonicultura sobre invertebrados no diana
2019
En la actualidad el mayor problema que enfrenta la industria salmonera a nivel mundial es la alta proliferación y diseminación del piojo de mar, un copépodo ectoparásito que alcanza altas densidades poblacionales en los centros de cultivo intensivo de salmónidos. Los insecticidas piretroides cipermetrina y deltametrina se han estado utilizado para bajar las cargas parasitarias mediante tratamientos periódicos. Los organismos marinos no diana pueden estar expuestos a estos piretroides a través del agua, los sedimentos o la ingestión de partículas orgánicas contaminadas. Los moluscos bivalvos y los anélidos poliquetos han sido ampliamente utilizados como organismos centinela de contaminación …
Tensions and Paradoxes of Scaling Up : A Critical Reflection on Physical Activity Promotion
2022
Background: Achieving system-level, sustainable ‘scale-up’ of interventions is the epitome of successful translation of evidence-based approaches in population health. In physical activity promotion, few evidence-based interventions reach implementation at scale or become embedded within systems for sustainable health impact. This is despite the vast published literature describing efficacy studies of small-scale physical activity interventions. Research into physical activity scale-up (through case-study analysis; evaluations of scale-up processes in implementation trials; and mapping the processes, strategies, and principles for scale-up) has identified barriers and facilitato…
Indicadores de actividad científica en investigadores singulares: perfil bibliométrico de Eduardo Primo Yúfera, expresidente del CSIC
2012
[EN] Eduardo Primo Yúfera was the founder of the Institute of Agrochemicals and Food Technology (IATA-CSIC) and was its director until being appointed president of the Spanish National Research Council. He is considered both patron and promoter of the fields of food science and technology and chemical ecology in Spain, as well as pioneer of the innovation system model (R+D+i). Throughout his long research career,which lasted 65 years, he published 291 scientifi c papers, with an average of 4.48 papers per year. Of these, 89.3 % were in collaboration with others: a total of 161 different coauthors. His efforts to disseminate science led him to create the Revista de Agroquímica y Tecnología d…
Scientific productivity and collaboration in viticulture and enology in Latin American countries
2013
[EN] The aim of this study was to analyze the scientific activity of Latin American researchers in viticulture and oenology through bibliometric analyses of articles included in the Science Citation Index Expanded database for the period of 2006 to 2010. A total of 917 research articles were published in 364 domestic and international journals. We highlight the important growth in the number of research papers published during the period, especially in Brazil, Argentina and Chile, as well as an increasing number of international collaborations, mainly with non-American grape- and-wine producing countries. A social network analysis of collaborations between institutions and countries was als…
