Le jugement d’oubli dans la maladie d’Alzheimer
2017
International audience; IntroductionAvez-vous déjà eu l’impression d’oublier quelque chose ? Le sentiment d’oubli est très commun dans la vie quotidienne mais a été très peu étudié expérimentalement.ObjectifsL’objectif de cette étude est d’évaluer les jugements d’oubli sur des tâches de mémoire sémantique et épisodique dans le vieillissement normal et dans la maladie d’Alzheimer.Patients et méthodesCinquante jeunes adultes, 35 personnes âgées et 33 patients Alzheimer ont été testés. Les participants effectuaient soit des jugements d’oubli, soit des jugements de rappel sur 2 tâches de mémoire. Pour la tâche de mémoire sémantique, les participants devaient rappeler toutes les régions de Franc…
EL PAPEL DE LA AUTOESTIMA EN LA PREVENCIÓN DEL VIH DE JÓVENES ESPAÑOLES
2017
Abstract.THE ROLE OF SELF-ESTEEM IN HIV PREVENTION AMONG SPANISH YOUNG PEOPLE SELF-ESTEEM INFLUENCES ON SEXUAL DEVELOPMENT AND RELATIONSHIPS OF YOUNG PEOPLE.Aims to examine the effects of the self-esteem on HIV prevention, 467 young people from the Valencian Community (Mage = 20.62; SD = 2.14) completed the Rosenberg Self-esteem Scale and the Aids Prevention Questionnaire by Ballester et al. (2007). Results showed statistically significant positive correlation between self-esteem and self-efficacy in condom use (p = .000), perceived competence (p = .041) or number of sexual partners (p = .001). On the other hand, statistically significant negative correlation were found between solidarity t…
Estudio descriptivo y comparativo de factores de riesgo cardiovascular y actividad física en pacientes con síndrome coronario agudo
2018
Resumen: Objetivo: Analizar diversos factores de riesgo cardiovascular en función de la actividad física realizada en pacientes con síndrome coronario agudo (SCA). Diseño: Estudio observacional transversal. Emplazamiento: Servicio de prevención cardiovascular hospitalario (Departamento Salud, Valencia, España). Participantes: Un total de 401 sujetos con SCA y alta hospitalaria entre 2 y 3 meses previos a la medición, entre 30 y 80 años; ausencia de contraindicación para realizar actividad física; sin participación previa en programas de rehabilitación cardiaca. Mediciones principales: Se estimó el equivalente metabólico MET (kcal/kg) según el tipo de actividad, frecuencia, duración e intens…
The Influence of Risk Factors on the Choice of Therapeutic Method in Peripheral Arterial Disease
2020
Abstract Peripheral arterial disease (PAD) is characterized by obstruction in the lower limbs, mainly due to atherosclerosis. The prevalence of the pathology in people under 40 years of age is 6% and 15-20% in the population over 65 years old.(1,2) Approximately 50% of the affected persons are, at the time of examination, asymptomatic.(3) The most important risk factors associated with this condition are smoking, diabetes mellitus (DM), high cholesterol and high blood pressure (HBP). The current study shows that, regardless of the association of risk factors or pre-hospital treatment, these patients do not benefit from a certain type of treatment (drug or interventional), which corresponds …
Comprehensive Analysis of Invasive and Noninvasive Investigation Methods in Peripheral Artery Disease
2019
Abstract Peripheral artery disease of the lower limbs is, in fact, an arterial pathology, by which the blood flow is reduced, due to the obstruction caused by the deposit of atheroma plaques.(1) This deposition occurs slowly, which leads to a slow progression of the disease, and thus, at the onset of symptomatology. The objective of the study was to make a comparison between the invasive and noninvasive paraclinical investigations performed in patients with peripheral arterial disease of the lower limbs in the E.C.C.H. Sibiu. In conclusion, between the two investigations (computed tomography angiography and digital subtraction angiography) there are no noticeable differences in the terminal…
Multimodality Imaging in Ischemic Cardiomyopathy
2019
Abstract Ischemic heart disease is the most common heart pathology in medical practice. Proper assessment of the size of myocardium injury and its consequences on the heart function is extremely important both for a correct drug therapy and for interventional approach. Most frequently the left ventricle is affected. The need for accurate evaluation of the impact of left ventricular myocardial damage has led to the development of new imaging techniques and improvement of the existing ones. At the moment the most commonly used imaging method for the assessment of left ventricular function is echocardiography. Cardiac Magnetic Resonance and nuclear tomography are precious imaging techniques as…
PS02.010: ESTABLISHMENT OF THE UPPER GI INTERNATIONAL ROBOTIC ASSOCIATION (UGIRA)
2018
Abstract Background Robot-assisted surgery is increasingly performed for both benign and malignant upper gastro-intestinal disease. However, no global consensus exists regarding exact techniques and implementation methods of robotic esophageal and gastric surgery. To facilitate the effective implementation and advancement of these procedures, evidence based guidelines should be generated. In this context, the ‘Upper GI International Robotic Association’ (UGIRA) was established in 2017. Until now, 20 experienced robotic surgeons from 10 different countries in Europe (The Netherlands, Germany, United Kingdom, Denmark), Asia (Japan, Hong Kong, North-Korea, Taiwan), North-America (United States…
Receiving Continuous Antibiotic Prophylaxis
2020
Abstract Continuous antibiotic prophylaxis represents an initial management strategy for decreasing the risk of urinary tract infections in children with vesicoureteral reflux. A significant number of cases resolve spontaneously in time, reason for which continuous antibiotic prophylaxis is not required in every patient with this disorder. It is mandatory to select the patients who need continuous antibiotic prophylaxis according to their risk group. We do not have a lot of scientific evidences about what is better or not for these patients, but the main objective for the case management is to maintain the renal function, by minimizing the risk of pyelonephritis, renal scars and its consequ…

Periodontal Diseases in Diabetes Melitus - A Two Way Link? A Review of Literature
2020
Abstract Numerous studies in the last decades report a frequent association of marginal periodontal disease with some systemic metabolic disorders, such as diabetes or obesity. The prevalence of these diseases is growing alarmingly both globally and in our country. Recent data from the literature confirm that advanced forms of periodontal disease can influence the evolution of type 2 diabetes. This may provide a premise for better glycemic control.
