Se presenta el primer ciclo de mejora llevado a cabo en la asignatura "Terapéutica Enfermera, Alimentación y Cuidados" de 2º curso del Grado en Enfermería, en la unidad docente Virgen del Rocío, con 51 estudiantes matriculados en un grupo grande, donde se planificó una secuencia de actividades que propiciaron la participación de estos en su...

Además de las oportunidades que supone el uso de Big Data en salud, también genera desafíos importantes en el campo de la investigación, especialmente desde el punto de vista de su gestión y de las consideraciones éticas. La Unión Europea ha estado promoviendo diferentes iniciativas que permitan la explotación de estos datos en el contexto de...

Background. Climate change and global health are inextricably linked. Thus, health systems and their professionals must adapt and evolve without losing quality of care. Aim(s). To identify health and environmental co-benefits derived from a sustainable diet and promotion strategies that favor its implementation. Methods. A systematic search for...

Unprecedentedly, this article presents a useful management protocol for the workers in emergency situations assisting victims of white weapon aggressions with a dual innovation. It could presage a possible advance in the healthcare management of these patients and support important repercussions in the legal field when this type of wound is...

Background: Demographic changes and the increased chronical diseases burden are global challenges that cannot go unnoticed by healthcare systems, which must be or ganized without losing sight of the increasing influence of social determinants. Aim: To evaluate the results of a primary care program implemented to reduce health inequalities...

Background/purpose Many studies suggest that insulin resistance in obese patients bridges mental illness. Our objective was to identify the association between levels of depression and anxiety with insulin resistance, and its relationship with obesity and abdominal obesity Methods A cross-sectional analytical study was carried out in Honduras....

Objective: To evaluate the prevalence of unhealthy gestational weight gain and analyze the role of women ́s knowledge about the recommendations, expectations, beliefs, counseling, and information pro- vided by midwives as potential factors contributing to failure to meet recommendations. Research design/setting: A retrospective cross-sectional...

The aim of this study was to evaluate a diet intervention implemented by our hospital in order to determinate its capacity to improve the eating pattern of patients with an ileostomy, facilitating the implementation new eating-related behaviors, reducing doubt and dissatisfaction and other complications. The study was conducted with a...

Background. A Cochrane review found that there is insufficient evidence to determine the effectiveness of acupressure for pain relief. One of the problems detected is the methodological variability reported. Objective. To assess the impact of the application of acupressure on obstetric and neonatal outcomes of labor, pain experience, and...

Official population consumption data are frequently used to characterize the diet of countries; however, this information may not always be representative of reality. This study analyses the food consumption of the Spanish population by reconstructing the whole food chain. The results have been compared with the data provided by the National...

The genetic make-up of an individual contributes to the susceptibility and response to viral infection. Although environmental, clinical and social factors have a role in the chance of exposure to SARS-CoV-2 and the severity of COVID-191,2, host genetics may also be important. Identifying host-specific genetic factors may reveal biological...

Objective: Pneumocystis pneumonia remains a major opportunistic infection in immunocompromised patients worldwide. Colonization with Pneumocystis jirovecii has recently gained attention as an important issue for understanding the complete cycle of human Pneumocystis infection. P. jirovecii Superoxide Dismutase (SOD) gene could be a molecular...

We conducted a pilot study of patients with cystic fibrosis (CF) to assess intra-family transmission of P. jirovecii and compare it with data on other prevalent pathogens such as P. aeruginosa and S. pneumoniae, in which respiratory transmission has already been documented. Oral swab samples from 10 patients with CF and 15 household members...

Investigating the role of host genetic factors in COVID-19 severity and susceptibility can inform our understanding of the underlying biological mechanisms that influence adverse outcomes and drug development1,2. Here we present a second updated genome-wide association study (GWAS) on COVID-19 severity and infection susceptibility to SARS-CoV-2...

Metabolic associated fatty liver disease (MAFLD) is the most prevalent form of liver disease worldwide, accounting for a high liver-related mortality and morbidity with extensive multi organ involvement. This entity has displaced viral hepatitis as the main cause of severe forms of hepatic diseases, although the onset and transition of MAFLD...

Critical illness in COVID-19 is an extreme and clinically homogeneous disease phenotype that we have previously shown1 to be highly efficient for discovery of genetic associations2. Despite the advanced stage of illness at presentation, we have shown that host genetics in patients who are critically ill with COVID-19 can identify...

We report a case of Pneumocystis jirovecii transmission from colonized grandparents to their infant granddaughter. Genotyping of P. jirovecii showed the same genotypes in samples from the infant and her grandparents. These fi ndings support P. jirovecii transmission from immunocompetent carrier adults to a susceptible child.
