Taxes de reincidència 2011 de justícia juvenil: actualització de la taxa de reincidència dels joves sotmesos a mesures de llibertat vigilada i internament en centre

L’estudi actualitza les taxes de reincidència dels menors sotmesos a una mesura d’internament o de llibertat vigilada que van ser publicades a la recerca “La reincidència en el delicte en la justícia de menors” finalitzada l’any 2005 i que van iniciar la sèrie. Aquest estudi ja és el sisè del mateix tipus i, en aquest cas, segueix els joves que van finalitzar una mesura de llibertat vigilada o d’internament l’any 2008, i els segueix fins el 31 de desembre de 2011 amb l’objectiu de saber si han comès un nou delicte que hagi estat detectat per la Xarxa d’execució penal, tant de joves com d’adults. S’ha estudiat tota la població de joves desinternats de centres, que per l’any 2008 foren 258 subjectes. En el cas de llibertat vigilada la població que ha finalitzat l’any 2008 ha estat de 967 subjectes. En total la població estudiada ha estat de 1.225 joves. Els resultats en la taxa de reincidència de llibertat vigilada han baixat lleugerament (28,7%) respecte l’any anterior (que era del 29,6%). En internament la taxa de reincidència també ha baixat lleugerament (57,8%) respecte l’any passat (58,7%). L’estudi permet comparar de forma seriada sis anys d’evolució de la taxa de reincidència juvenil després de la posada en marxa de la Llei Orgànica 5/2000, de 12 de gener, reguladora de la responsabilitat penal dels menors (LORPM).

Protocol pel correcte manteniment de la via subcutànea en cures pal·liatives aplicades a domicili

La medicina al llarg de la història ha anat evolucionant a mesura que també ho anava fent la societat. És per això que en el darrer segle existeix una medicina que no està orientada a la curació de la patologia, sinó que tracta d’aconseguir la major qualitat de vida del pacient ancià o jove, amb patologies cròniques, en estadi de final de la malaltia i també en pacients oncològics i no oncològics, és a dir, s’intenta prestar una atenció sanitària, no curativa, als que tenen una malaltia avançada, progressiva i incurable que precisen una sèrie d’intervencions que no només es basen en procediments mèdics, sinó també en socials i psicològics. És per la necessitat que la medicina s’adaptés a les demandes de la societat que al 1990 es crea a Catalunya el Pla de Cures Pal·liatives de Catalunya com a programa pilot de l’Organització Mundial de la Salut (OMS). Aquest programa ha esdevingut tot un referent de les cures pal·liatives (CP) a España, és el Programa d’Atenció Domiciliària i Equips de Suport (PADES) on un equip interdisciplinari (metge, infermer, treballador social, fisioterapeuta i psicòleg) treballen per tenir una cura holística del pacient al seu domicili. Així, doncs, l’objectiu del PADES és alleugerir el patiment i millorar, tant com es pugui, la qualitat de vida i acompanyar-los en el procés de mort al seu domicili.

Efficacy of a dilemma-focused intervention for unipolar depression: study protocol for a multicenter randomized controlled trial

Background Depression is one of the more severe and serious health problems because of its morbidity, disabling effects and for its societal and economic burden. Despite the variety of existing pharmacological and psychological treatments, most of the cases evolve with only partial remission, relapse and recurrence. Cognitive models have contributed significantly to the understanding of unipolar depression and its psychological treatment. However, success is only partial and many authors affirm the need to improve those models and also the treatment programs derived from them. One of the issues that requires further elaboration is the difficulty these patients experience in responding to treatment and in maintaining therapeutic gains across time without relapse or recurrence. Our research group has been working on the notion of cognitive conflict viewed as personal dilemmas according to personal construct theory. We use a novel method for identifying those conflicts using the repertory grid technique (RGT). Preliminary results with depressive patients show that about 90% of them have one or more of those conflicts. This fact might explain the blockage and the difficult progress of these patients, especially the more severe and/or chronic. These results justify the need for specific interventions focused on the resolution of these internal conflicts. This study aims to empirically test the hypothesis that an intervention focused on the dilemma(s) specifically detected for each patient will enhance the efficacy of cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) for depression. Design A therapy manual for a dilemma-focused intervention will be tested using a randomized clinical trial by comparing the outcome of two treatment conditions: combined group CBT (eight, 2-hour weekly sessions) plus individual dilemma-focused therapy (eight, 1-hour weekly sessions) and CBT alone (eight, 2-hour group weekly sessions plus eight, 1-hour individual weekly sessions). Method Participants are patients aged over 18 years meeting diagnostic criteria for major depressive disorder or dysthymic disorder, with a score of 19 or above on the Beck depression inventory, second edition (BDI-II) and presenting at least one cognitive conflict (implicative dilemma or dilemmatic construct) as assessed using the RGT. The BDI-II is the primary outcome measure, collected at baseline, at the end of therapy, and at 3- and 12-month follow-up; other secondary measures are also used. Discussion We expect that adding a dilemma-focused intervention to CBT will increase the efficacy of one of the more prestigious therapies for depression, thus resulting in a significant contribution to the psychological treatment of depression.

Natalizumab versus Interferon B-1b to prevent CDMS in patients with CIS and poor prognostic factors: research protocol

About 85% of multiple sclerosis (MS) cases start as clinically isolated syndrome (CIS).When patients present with a CIS, clinicians face with many questions, most of themrelated with prognosis and treatment. Thereby, patients with CIS have been focus ofresearch. Several studies have demonstrated a relationship between positive IgM lipidspecific oligoclonal band pattern in CSF and higher lesion load on MRI brain scan, higher number of relapses and greater disability, even at the first stages of the disease. On the other hand, no studies have used this previous evidence to treat with more aggressive disease modifying therapy in initial stages of disease course to prevent the earlier axonal damage. The aim of this study is to assess the most effective approved treatment for MS and current therapy for CIS patients presenting high risk to develop CDMS and with biomarkers of poor prognosis. Among this group of patients any disease activity will eventually lead to disability. Therefore, the earlier the treatment is initiated, the more effective to prevent disability will be. It is considered that “time lost is brain lost” and since once damage is established, there is no therapy to be regained later on. In this phase III clinical trial, 172 patients will be randomized 1:1 to receive Interferon β-1b or natalizumab over 96 weeks. Time to develop clinical definitive multiple sclerosis (CDMS) will be included as primary endpoint. Other secondary endpoints will include clinical data, magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) measurements and quality of life tests

A Secure and Anonymous Cooperative Sensing Protocol for Cognitive Radio Networks

Spectrum is an essential resource for the provision of mobile services. In order to control and delimit its use, governmental agencies set up regulatory policies. Unfortunately, such policies have led to a deficiency of spectrum as only few frequency bands are left unlicensed, and these are used for the majority of new emerging wireless applications. One promising way to alleviate the spectrum shortage problem is adopting a spectrum sharing paradigm in which frequency bands are used opportunistically. Cognitive radio is the key technology to enable this shift of paradigm.Cognitive radio networks are self-organized systems in which devices cooperate to use those spectrum ranges that are not occupied by licensed users. They carry out spectrum sensing in order to detect vacant channels that can be used for communication. Even though spectrum sensing is an active area of research, an important issue remains unsolved: the secure authentication of sensing reports. Not providing security enables the input of false data in the system thus empowering false results. This paper presents a distributed protocol based on wireless physical layer security, symmetric cryptography and one-way functions that allows determining a final sensing decision from multiple sources in a quick and secure way, as well as it preserves users¿ privacy.
