A 14-item Mediterranean diet assessment tool and obesity indexes among high-risk subjects: the PREDIMED trial
2012
Objective Independently of total caloric intake, a better quality of the diet (for example, conformity to the Mediterranean diet) is associated with lower obesity risk. It is unclear whether a brief dietary assessment tool, instead of full-length comprehensive methods, can also capture this association. In addition to reduced costs, a brief tool has the interesting advantage of allowing immediate feedback to participants in interventional studies. Another relevant question is which individual items of such a brief tool are responsible for this association. We examined these associations using a 14-item tool of adherence to the Mediterranean diet as exposure and body mass index, waist circum…
IL GOVERNO DEL TERRITORIO TRA ARCHEOLOGIA PUBBLICA E PREVENTIVA
2023
Il contributo approfondisce il tema del rapporto tra il governo del territorio e la tutela e la valorizzazione del patrimonio archeologico come delineato dal legislatore statale e regionale e dalla giurisprudenza. In particolare vengono esaminati i profili del rapporto rafforzato tra pianificazione urbanistica ed analisi territoriale archeologica nella prospettiva dell’archeologia pubblica e preventiva.
Relación entre exposición a corto plazo a dióxido de azufre atmosférico y lesiones obstructivas en el síndrome coronario agudo
2013
Resumen Fundamentos y objetivo Los contaminantes del aire urbano estan constituidos por una mezcla heterogenea de sustancias presentes en estado gaseoso y aerosoles. El objetivo del presente estudio fue comparar los efectos causados por la exposicion a contaminantes en fase gas y particulas atmosfericas en aire ambiente en pacientes que ingresan por un sindrome coronario agudo (SCA), en relacion con la presencia o no de lesiones obstructivas significativas (LOS) en arterias coronarias epicardicas. Pacientes y metodo Analizamos de forma prospectiva a un total de 2.110 pacientes con el diagnostico de SCA. Se determinaron las concentraciones medias de contaminantes en fase gas y particulas atm…
Will austerity cuts dismantle the Spanish healthcare system?
2013
In the face of austerity, a series of disconnected “reforms” could, without corrective measures, lead to the effective dismantling of large parts of the Spanish healthcare system, with potentially detrimental effects on health. Helena Legido-Quigley and colleagues explain.
Assessment of the Microbiological Quality of Groundwater in Three Regions of the Valencian Community (Spain)
2014
Urban groundwater development was traditionally constrained by concerns about its quality. This study was conducted in the regions of La Ribera Alta and Ribera Baja and La Plana de Requena-Utiel of the Valencian Community (Valencia, Spain) where population density, demand for drinking water and agricultural activities are high. Groundwater bodies (GWBs) are regarded as management areas within each territory, and were used to establish protection policies. This study analyzed eleven GWBs. We used two databases with microbiological measurements from 154 wells over a 7-year period (2004–2011), risk factors and groundwater information. Wells were grouped according to frequency of microbiologica…
Intimate partner violence in older women in Spain: prevalence, health consequences, and service utilization.
2013
The purpose of this study is to estimate the prevalence of lifetime intimate partner violence (IPV) in older women and to analyze its effect on women"s health and Healthcare Services utilization. Women aged 55 years and over (1,676) randomly sampled from Primary Healthcare Services around Spain were included. Lifetime IPV prevalence, types, and duration were calculated. Descriptive and multivariate procedures using logistic and multiple lineal regression models were used. Of the women studied, 29.4% experienced IPV with an average duration of 21 years. Regardless of the type of IPV experienced, abused women showed significantly poorer health and higher healthcare services utilization compar…
Variabilidad geográfica de la violencia contra las mujeres en España
2010
OBJETIVOS: Describir la prevalencia global y por comunidades autónomas (CC.AA.) de la violencia por un compañero íntimo, sus características y la violencia fuera de la pareja, así como estudiar la relación entre la prevalencia de violencia por un compañero íntimo y la frecuencia de denuncias y muertes por este motivo. MÉTODOS: Encuesta transversal mediante cuestionario autoadministrado en 11.475 mujeres que acuden a consultas de atención primaria durante los años 2006 – 2007. Diseño muestral estratificado y polietápico, con una muestra representativa por CA. Además de la violencia por un compañero íntimo y la violencia fuera de la pareja, se recogieron denuncias y muertes por la primera. Se…

Non-targeted metabolomic biomarkers and metabotypes of type 2 diabetes: A cross-sectional study of PREDIMED trial participants
2019
Aim. - To characterize the urinary metabolomic fingerprint and multi-metabolite signature associated with type 2 diabetes (T2D), and to classify the population into metabotypes related to T2D. Methods. - A metabolomics analysis using the 1 H-NMR-based, non-targeted metabolomic approach was conducted to determine the urinary metabolomic fingerprint of T2D compared with non-T2D participants in the PREDIMED trial. The discriminant metabolite fingerprint was subjected to logistic regression analysis and ROC analyses to establish and to assess the multi-metabolite signature of T2D prevalence, respectively. Metabotypes associated with T2D were identified using the k-means algorithm. Results. - A …
