El arte en la enfermería: referencias visuales de la Metodología Enfermera Aplicadas al P.A.E., según el modelo de Virginia Henderson

[ES]Con este trabajo se procedió a determinar la fidelidad con la que la cinematografía española recoge la esencia de la asistencia de enfermería teniendo en cuenta el modelo de Virginia Henderson. Para llevar a cabo la investigación del papel de enfermería se analizaron siete película con origen español cuya filmación transcurre en centros sanitarios. Tras analizar los largometrajes se llegó a la conclusión de que la cinematografía española recoge con fidelidad la esencia de las necesidades básicas de Virginia Henderson.

Teatro y traducción (inglés-español). Análisis comparativo de traducciones comerciales. Who's Afraid of Virginia Woolf?

El presente trabajo se centra en un análisis comparativo en varios niveles de las traducciones producidas a partir de la obra teatral Who’s Afraid of Virginia Woolf? (Albee 1962): las de Marcelo De Ridder, José Méndez y Alberto Mira, realizadas con distintos fines y en momentos histórico culturales diferenciados. Asimismo hemos integrado en la comparación la adaptación cinematográfica y los correspondientes textos audiovisuales en inglés y en español, con el fin de ofrecer una visión más inclusiva del modo en que se ha generado esta cadena textual. Para manejar el mencionado corpus, nos hemos valido de herramientas informáticas. Por un lado, el programa TRACEAligner ha resultado de gran utilidad para alinear los textos teatrales. Por otro lado, SubRip ha posibilitado la extracción del subtitulado en inglés y en español del DVD, que después hemos organizado en una tabla bitextual. A través de una metodología fundamentada en estudios de investigación relevantes, hemos examinado el corpus desde una perspectiva extratextual, macroestructural, microestructural e intersistémica. Esto nos ha permitido interrelacionar las traducciones en aspectos tan importantes como los factores contextuales que afectan a su producción, las características de las publicaciones (o del libreto inédito), la transferencia de las unidades estructurales y argumentales, la correspondencia con rasgos de distintos tipos de traducciones, los fenómenos de traducción con mayor incidencia o las adaptaciones derivadas de los procesos de censura. Gracias a la comparación de estos temas, se pueden apreciar las características distintivas de cada texto. Otro asunto que se trata a lo largo del análisis es la identificación del texto fuente de cada traducción, especialmente de la de Méndez. Hemos tratado de demostrar que Méndez parte del texto norteamericano, no de la traducción de Ridder, como se ha sugerido (Espejo 1998: 111 112). Por último, recogemos una serie de conclusiones que pretenden verter luz sobre las cuestiones planteadas en la introducción.

Effects of Spring Temperatures on the Strength of Selection on Timing of Reproduction in a Long-Distance Migratory Bird

Climate change has differentially affected the timing of seasonal events for interacting trophic levels, and this has often led to increased selection on seasonal timing. Yet, the environmental variables driving this selection have rarely been identified, limiting our ability to predict future ecological impacts of climate change. Using a dataset spanning 31 years from a natural population of pied flycatchers (Ficedula hypoleuca), we show that directional selection on timing of reproduction intensified in the first two decades (1980-2000) but weakened during the last decade (2001-2010). Against expectation, this pattern could not be explained by the temporal variation in the phenological mismatch with food abundance. We therefore explored an alternative hypothesis that selection on timing was affected by conditions individuals experience when arriving in spring at the breeding grounds: arriving early in cold conditions may reduce survival. First, we show that in female recruits, spring arrival date in the first breeding year correlates positively with hatch date; hence, early-hatched individuals experience colder conditions at arrival than late-hatched individuals. Second, we show that when temperatures at arrival in the recruitment year were high, early-hatched young had a higher recruitment probability than when temperatures were low. We interpret this as a potential cost of arriving early in colder years, and climate warming may have reduced this cost. We thus show that higher temperatures in the arrival year of recruits were associated with stronger selection for early reproduction in the years these birds were born. As arrival temperatures in the beginning of the study increased, but recently declined again, directional selection on timing of reproduction showed a nonlinear change. We demonstrate that environmental conditions with a lag of up to two years can alter selection on phenological traits in natural populations, something that has important implications for our understanding of how climate can alter patterns of selection in natural populations.

Long-Term Burden and Respiratory Effects of Respiratory Syncytial Virus Hospitalization in Preterm Infants — The SPRING Study

The health status of premature infants born 32(1)-35(0) weeks' gestational age (wGA) hospitalized for RSV infection in the first year of life (cases; n = 125) was compared to that of premature infants not hospitalized for RSV (controls; n = 362) through 6 years. The primary endpoints were the percentage of children with wheezing between 2-6 years and lung function at 6 years of age. Secondary endpoints included quality of life, healthcare resource use, and allergic sensitization. A significantly higher proportion of cases than controls experienced recurrent wheezing through 6 years of age (46.7% vs. 27.4%; p = 0.001). The vast majority of lung function tests appeared normal at 6 years of age in both cohorts. In children with pulmonary function in the lower limit of normality (FEV1 Z-score [-2; -1]), wheezing was increased, particularly for cases vs. controls (72.7% vs. 18.9%, p = 0.002). Multivariate analysis revealed the most important factor for wheezing was RSV hospitalization. Quality of life on the respiratory subscale of the TAPQOL was significantly lower (p = 0.001) and healthcare resource utilization was significantly higher (p<0.001) in cases than controls. This study confirms RSV disease is associated with wheezing in 32-35 wGA infants through 6 years of age.
