Prognosis Impact of Diabetes in Elderly Women and Men with Non-ST Elevation Acute Coronary Syndrome
2021
Few studies have addressed to date the interaction between sex and diabetes mellitus (DM) in the prognosis of elderly patients with non-ST-segment elevation acute coronary syndrome (NSTEACS). Our aim was to address the role of DM in the prognosis of non-selected elderly patients with NSTEACS according to sex. A retrospective analysis from 11 Spanish NSTEACS registries was conducted, including patients aged ≥70 years. The primary end point was one-year all-cause mortality. A total of 7211 patients were included, 2,770 (38.4%) were women, and 39.9% had DM. Compared with the men, the women were older (79.95 ± 5.75 vs. 78.45 ± 5.43 years, p <
Constancy and evolution of an engaged writing : the work of Carmen de Burgos, journalist, essayist and novelist
2016
Carmen de Burgos died in 1932, leaving behind a considerable amount of written material: thousands of articles published in different newspapers, essays, novels and hundreds of “novelas cortas”. The works and the memory of this women’s rights activist were doomed to oblivion during Franco’s dictatorship. This thesis aims to rediscover and analyse these works from its various perspectives. We have been looking for the constant trends but also the evolutions. Carmen de Burgos has indeed evolved in her conception of the woman’s role and of the rights she had to acquire. In the early stages of her fight, she had been mainly focusing on the acquisition of equalitarian legal and social rights. Sh…
Goal-setting strategy and psychological differences in marathon runners compared by gender
2019
Prior to a marathon race, we conducted a cross sectional study with 122 male and 18 female recreational runners at the Expo. Demographic information, running experience, competition level, training details, goal and finishing times, and PODIUM questionnaire on psychological state variables were collected. Motivation, training volume, experience, and relative performance were comparable between male and female marathon runners. However, men were more ambitious and perceived higher self-confidence and fitness, although overestimated their goals ( M dif = -10.4, SD = 16.7] minutes, p < .001). Women perceived higher social support, reported higher anxiety levels, were more accurate in their est…
La parité
2016
La parité garantit-elle l'égalité des sexes ? En France, les lois dites "sur la parité" favorisent l'égal accès des femmes et des hommes aux postes à responsabilité depuis le début des années 2000. D'abord prévues pour les mandats politiques, elles s'étendent à la fonction publique, à la direction des entreprises privées et même des associations. Pourquoi ? D'où vient ce principe ? Est-il efficace ? La parité numérique (50/50) s'accompagne de carences que le regard sociologique permet d'identifier.

Sex and Gender Equality Policies in Education in Three Southern European Societies: the cases of Andalusia and Valencian Community (Spain) and Portug…
2020
Gender mainstreaming is an international strategy in Europe relating to gender equality using an intersectional approach. It deals, specifically, with new challenges for sexuality and diversity in education. From within this context, this paper focuses on two goals. The first is to analyse sex and gender equality policies in education, since the 2000s, in three Southern European societies: Andalusia and Valencian Community, in Spain, and Portugal. The second goal is to arrive at some comparative conclusions about the recent developments in sex and gender equality policies in education in these three societies. We end with some comparative conclusions. First, there is the political orientati…
Entretien avec Isabelle Collet à propos de son ouvrage Les oubliées du numérique
2020
Avec sa publication « Les oubliées du numérique » Isabelle Collet, à travers d’exemples issus de vingt ans de recherche sur le genre et l’informatique, nous amène, tout d’abord, à mieux comprendre le fonctionnement des mécanismes qui opèrent autour de l’exclusion des femmes dans le numérique. Elle offre ensuite une analyse approfondie sur l’efficacité des différentes pratiques pour l’inclusion des femmes dans ce secteur et propose une stratégie d’action en trois étapes – intéresser, recruter, socialiser – pour changer le système et le rendre plus inclusif. Dans l’entrevue qui suit, l’autrice partage avec Loïc Szerdahelyi les réflexions au cœur de son ouvrage.
Sex differences in the psychophysiological response to an intergroup conflict.
2018
Abstract Conflict induces psychophysiological responses, but less is known about responses to intergroup conflict. Intergroup relationships activate social processes, adding complexity to people’s physiological responses. This study analyzes the psychophysiological responses to intergroup conflict considering sex differences. Thus, 150 young people were distributed in 50 groups in two conditions (conflict vs. non-conflict). Conflict was created in the interaction between two groups (three people each) in the laboratory. Their responses were compared to a control group. Mood, heart rate variability, cortisol, and testosterone were measured. Results showed that intergroup conflict induced a l…
