Barriers to insulin initiation and intensification and how to overcome them
2009
Summary Aims: To review published evidence and clinical experience of the perceived barriers to insulin initiation and intensification and to develop solutions for patient management. Method: Literature review and workshop discussions. Results: Many patients with diabetes fail to achieve targets for glycaemic control because of inappropriate use of insulin. Patients and health care professionals face many potential barriers to insulin initiation and intensification in primary care. These can be categorised as low motivation, lack of familiarity or experience and time constraints. Conclusion: Solutions should be tailored to different health care settings. Strategies include improving edu…
Valoración del manejo de los inhaladores por el personal de enfermería en un hospital de referencia
2008
Objetivo: valorar los conocimientos y adiestramiento del personal de enfermería con el paciente respiratorio en el manejo de la terapia inhalada en distintas salas de hospitalización.

Se revisó la técnica inhalatoria siguiendo los pasos establecidos en la normativa SEPAR. Resultados: participaron 144 de los 177 enfermeros/as (81,4%) que trabajan en las diferentes salas de hospitalización (29 varones,…
Solutions to replace quantity with quality in science.
2012
In their recent letter, Joern Fischer and others [1xAcademia's obsession with quantity. Fischer, J. et al. Trends Ecol. Evol. 2012; 27: 463–474See all References[1] tackled one of the major problems in modern science: the obsession with quantity. Perspicaciously, they showed how targeting for quantity has faded out creativity and reflection from science. Fischer and others ended their letter with the words: ‘Starting with our own university departments (but not stopping there), it is time to take stock of what we are doing. We must recreate spaces for reflection, personal relationships, and depth. More does not equal better.’ Utopian as it may be, we applaud this statement.Unfortunately, Fi…
Ce que Diderot a fait à Helvétius (1758 - 1773)
2011
Un lieu commun de l'histoire de la philosophie des Lumières veut que Diderot et Helvétius représentent deux voies incompatibles traversant les Lumières. La première voie, celle d'Helvétius, défendrait avant tout la thèse de l'égalité entre les esprits, et à cette fin serait contrainte de nier la dimension physiologique de la pensée humaine, potentiellement porteuse de différences innées, et peut-être indépassables. La seconde voie, celle de Diderot, attentive au contraire à la naissance des " sciences de la vie " et de la physiologie (celle de Haller), s'en remettrait aux progrès de ces dernières pour décider la question de l'égalité des esprits. Appelons cette thèse la thèse de l'organisat…
Early and Longitudinal Humoral Response to the SARS-CoV-2 mRNA BNT162b2 Vaccine in Healthcare Workers: Significance of BMI, Adipose Tissue and Muscle…
2022
Background: This study aimed to investigate the early and longitudinal humoral response in Healthcare Workers (HCWs) after two doses of the BNT162b2 vaccine and to assess the association between metabolic and anthropometric parameters and the humoral response after vaccination. Methods: The study included 243 fully vaccinated HCWs: 25.50% previously infected with SARS-CoV-2 (with prior history of COVID-19—PH) and 74.40%—uninfected, seronegative before the first vaccination (with no prior history of COVID-19—NPH). IgG antibodies were measured, and sera were collected: prior to the vaccination, 21 days after the first dose, and 14 days and 8 months after the second dose. Res…

Leishmaniasis in travelers: A literature review.
2014
Leishmaniasis is a vector-borne protozoan infection whose clinical spectrum ranges from asymptomatic infection to fatal visceral leishmaniasis. Over the last decades, an increase in imported leishmaniasis cases in developed, non-endemic countries, have been pointed-out from a review of the international literature. Among the possible causes are increasing international tourism, influx of immigrants from endemic regions and military operations. The main area for the acquisition of cutaneous leishmaniasis, especially for adventure travelers on long-term trips in highly-endemic forested areas, is represented from South America, whereas popular Mediterranean destinations are emerging as the mai…

Mental health and psychosocial support strategies in highly contagious emerging disease outbreaks of substantial public concern: A systematic scoping…
2021
Background Acute disease outbreaks such as the COVID-19 pandemic cause a high burden of psychological distress in people worldwide. Interventions to enable people to better cope with such distress should be based on the best available evidence. We therefore performed a scoping review to systematically identify and summarize the available literature of interventions that target the distress of people in the face of highly contagious disease outbreaks. Methods MEDLINE, Cochrane CENTRAL, Web of Science (January 2000 to May 7, 2020), and reference lists were systematically searched and screened by two independent reviewers. Quantitative and qualitative studies investigating the effects of psyc…
