L'Intrusisme professional a principis del segle XX. El Dr. James M. Munyon.

RESUM: Presentem al Dr. James M. Munyon, qui a principis del segle passat es dedicà a la manufactura i patent de remeis homeopàtics. Va ser perseguit per frau en múltiples ocasions però la seva gran fortuna li va permetre estendre el seu negoci fins a casa nostra, arribant a assolir grans cotes de popularitat. La revista ¡Cu-Cut! li dedicà tres caricatures els anys 1902 i 1903. A través de l"estudi de les mateixes hem pogut conèixer el Dr. Munyon, un intrús professional de principis del segle XX.

La força pot predir el rendiment i la lesionabilitat al bàsquet professional?

Amb l’objectiu de conèixer les relacions existents entre la força, el rendiment esportiu i la lesionabilitat en un equip masculí de bàsquet professional, es realitza un estudi prospectiu, observacional i descriptiu d’anàlisis d’estadístiques (71 partits), test de mig esquat (n = 7) i patologia lesional, monitoritzant la temporada 09/10, on es relacionen les dades obtingudes de cada jugador referents al rendiment esportiu per partit (valoració estadística), les mitjanes de força, velocitat i potència de cada mesocicle i la lesionabilitat. La tècnica estadística utilitzada ha estat la correlació a partir del paràmetre rho de Spearman. Aquestes correlacions entre força i lesionabilitat mostren que a valors de força més elevats hi ha més lesions: amb 80 kg són molt significatives per a lesions totals (LT) i potència (rho = 0,898; p = 0,006), i significatives per força (rho = 0,823; p = 0,023) i velocitat (rho = 0,774; p = 0,041); la velocitat amb 90 kg es relaciona amb lesions time loss (TL) (rho = 0,878; p = 0,009), i la potència amb 100 kg, amb lesions totals (LT) (rho = 0,805; p = 0,029) i V100 (rho = 0,898; p = 0,006) molt significativament. I la relació entre força i rendiment és significativament negativa en 5 dels 7 mesocicles, és a dir, a menys força, més rendiment. En conclusió, durant l’execució del mig esquat, hi ha valors de força adients per rendir millor i lesionar-se menys: de 800 N a 1.050 N i amb càrregues de 80 kg a 90 kg.

L'Itinerari formatiu i professional de Jesús Sanz Poch (1897-1936) : renovació pedagògica i compromís polític a Catalunya durant el primer terç del segle XX

La figura de Jesús Sanz Poch apareix citada en diverses publicacions com a resultat de la petjada que va deixar en la trajectòria docent a la Normal de Lleida i la Normal de la Generalitat a Barcelona i, també, com a conseqüència de l’aportació realitzada en els inicis del moviment Freinet a Catalunya. Ens manquen, però, estudis més amplis i aprofundits de la trajectòria d’aquest mestre i pedagog nascut al Penedès i format a Girona, Madrid i Ginebra que, malauradament, va morir molt jove i de forma inesperada, pocs mesos abans de l’esclat de la guerra civil espanyola. L’article pretén reconstruir l’itinerari formatiu i professional de Jesús Sanz i presentar les línies mestres del seu pensament educatiu a partir de l’estudi de les fonts documentals existents en les institucions on va estudiar o exercir la docència, de la revisió de la documentació de l’arxiu familiar i de la lectura i anàlisi dels textos escrits i publicats. Jesús Sanz és un clar exponent del vincle entre renovació pedagògica i compromís polític que constitueix el motor de l’avenç social i cultural al nostre país durant les primeres dècades del segle XX. La trajectòria formativa és un exemple de la inquietud intel·lectual que, insatisfeta amb la realitat propera, va furgar en les expectatives que s’obrien des de l’exterior. La preocupació envers els temes nuclears de l’univers educatiu de l’època apunta les línies d’un pensament educatiu propi en procés de construcció desenvolupat en una curta, però intensa, activitat professional.

Degree of hermeticity of a multicompartment compliance aid: Implications for the quality of professional pharmaceutical services

A multicompartment compliance aid (MCA) is a blister-type repackaging system that aims to facilitate drug administration and thereby increase patient adherence. One of the characteristics of the MCA that should be taken into account is the moisture permeability, since this atmospheric condition is one of the most important factors that can modify the stability of medicines. In the current paper we report the moisture permeability tests performed on a MCA according to the US Pharmacopeia. This information on the suitability of the device will help pharmacists implement a high-quality professional service.

El pacient agredeix el professional? La violència laboral de tipus II: un fenomen existent

Aquest article de caràcter descriptiu té la finalitat d’exposar un fenomen existent com és la violència laboral. La violència laboral, un constructe amb pocs anys d’estudi, afecta totes les professions i les diferents categories professionals. S’estructura en cinc apartats. En el primer, es defineix pròpiament l’objecte d’estudi; en el segon, les dades de l’abast del fenomen; en el tercer, la tipologia; en el quart les teories que expliquen el perquè es produeix i en l’últim els factors de risc.

The construction of infant and primary school teachers’ identity during their initial professional development and first years of work (Identidoc). Summary, main results and contributions

Educators who are currently beginning their professional career at any level of the educationalsystem and who will likely have to work during the next thirty to forty years will be takingpart in the education of individuals who, with the permission of prophets and doomsayers,will live part of their lives in the 22nd century. That long but simple statement causes a bit ofvertigo as well as a good amount of reflection on the part of we educators who were trainedin the 20th century, are working in the 21st century, and are responsible for preparing peopleto build a tomorrow that is already today (Millán and Sancho, 1995). This is the starting pointof our research groups’ interest in exploring how men and women who have graduated fromteacher education programs with specializations in infant and primary education learn to beteachers, and how they establish and position themselves as teachers during their university studies and the first years of their professional life...
