Children's participatory budgets as a civic learning methodology. An exploratory study on the Spanish experience.
2021
International audience; The present research work aims to analyze, in an exploratory way, the main characteristics of child participatory budgets during 2019 in eight Spanish municipalities. The experiences of child budgeting are not well institutionalized. In general terms, when a participatory process is finished, all informational traces usually disappear. This study uses the comparative methodology with a theoretical framework based on Hart’s participation ladder and democratic civic participation. Three hypotheses have been generated and, among the main preliminary conclusions, it is highlighted that in all the cases analyzed the educational and civic training component prevails, in wh…
Sterol oxidation in ready-to-eat infant foods during storage.
2008
The effect of storage on sterol oxidation of ready-to-eat infant foods was evaluated. Two different flavor (honey -LH- or fruits-LF-) liquid infant foods, prepared with milk and cereals, were stored for 0, 2, 4, 7 and 9 months, at 25ºC. Sterol oxidation products (SOP) were extracted by cold saponification, purified by silica solid-phase and analyzed by gas chromatography (GC) and GC-mass spectrometry. -sitosterol was the most representative sterol, followed by cholesterol and campesterol. No significant differences in the total and single SOP content (0.8-1 mg/kg of product) were observed with respect to storage time and type of sample; the main SOP found was 7-ketositosterol (< …
Global Cognitive Functioning versus Controlled Functioning throughout the Stages of Development
2020
According to the All or None Hypothesis (Diamond, 2009), the cognitive system can operate in a global manner that is not very discriminate or in a more discriminate mode that demands greater precision, control, and cognitive effort. There are five corollaries to this hypothesis that describe, in an operative way, the conditions under which the controlled mode of functioning in the cognitive domain can be activated and thus tested. Given the impact this theory has generated and the absence of studies analyzing the corollaries in a collective and systematic way at different stages of development, this study was proposed, first of all, to test three of these corollaries in children, adolescent…
Polygenic association between attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder liability and cognitive impairments.
2022
AbstractBackgroundA recent genome-wide association study (GWAS) identified 12 independent loci significantly associated with attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder (ADHD). Polygenic risk scores (PRS), derived from the GWAS, can be used to assess genetic overlap between ADHD and other traits. Using ADHD samples from several international sites, we derived PRS for ADHD from the recent GWAS to test whether genetic variants that contribute to ADHD also influence two cognitive functions that show strong association with ADHD: attention regulation and response inhibition, captured by reaction time variability (RTV) and commission errors (CE).MethodsThe discovery GWAS included 19 099 ADHD cases …

Neuropsychological rehabilitation in children with central nervous system tumors and irradiated leukemias
2012
Actualmente la intervención e investigación en psicooncología pediátrica se dirige hacia la evaluación de las consecuencias de la enfermedad y los efectos secundarios de los tratamientos, y a los factores predictivos tanto de desajustes como de aspectos adaptativos a la enfermedad del paciente y de su familia. Las tasas de curación alcanzadas en la actualidad, nos permiten contar con un número considerable de supervivientes de cáncer infantil, susceptibles de ser evaluados y poder determinar así las secuelas a largo plazo de la enfermedad y sus procedimientos terapéuticos. Además de incrementar considerablemente la supervivencia, también se ha mejorado la calidad de vida de los niños, media…
The effects of combining kangaroo care and parental singing on premature infants' and parents' wellbeing and development of parent-infant relationship
2014
After experiencing premature birth, fragile infants have to spend weeks and even months on the ward because of their medical needs. This can be stressful both for parents and infants and increase the risk of early interaction problems and difficulty in bonding. In this qualitative study I was interested to find out what kinds of experiences parents had with parental singing during kangaroo care. I was also interested in examining the nursing staff’s attitudes, observations and thoughts about using music on the ward. I conducted my study within a Kangaroo Families study on the L2 ward at Jorvi hospital, Espoo. My study consists of interviews from 4 mothers that participated in the Kangaroo F…

Trastornos del habla en el síndrome X frágil. Una revisión bibliográfica.
2019
espanolEl sindrome X fragil (SXF) es un trastorno genetico causante de discapacidad intelectual hereditaria. Su prevalencia es mayor en los hombres. En este articulo se presenta una revision bibliografica para analizar por una parte su grado de afectacion linguistica y por otra la efectividad de su evaluacion o intervencion. A partir de determinados criterios de inclusion y exclusion, se ha analizado 19 articulos cuyos resultados han mostrado una variabilidad dependiente de los instrumentos aplicados, siendo especialmente eficaces los basados en el lenguaje guiado. Por tanto, se podria extraer conclusiones favorables a la hora de establecer en un futuro programas de evaluacion o intervencio…
Actualisation des références nutritionnelles françaises en vitamines et minéraux
2021
En 2016, l’Anses a proposé une mise à jour des références nutritionnelles pour la population adulte (femmes de 18 à 54 ans et hommes de 18 à 64 ans) dans le cadre de l’actualisation des repères de consommation alimentaire (saisine 2012-SA-0103). Par la suite, des rapports dédiés aux repères de consommation alimentaire pour les populations spécifiques (personnes âgées, enfants, femmes enceintes et allaitantes) ont été publiés en 2019, sans toutefois quede nouvelles références nutritionnelles ne soient définies par l’agence.Par ailleurs, la mise à jour de 2016 n’a concerné que les vitamines et minéraux indispensables pour lesquelles des données de consommation étaient disponibles. De ce fait,…
