Stored red blood cells: a changing universe waiting for its map(s).

The availability of stored red blood cells (RBCs) for transfusion remains an important aspect of the treatment of polytrauma, acute anemia or major bleedings. RBCs are prepared by blood banks from whole blood donations and stored in the cold in additive solutions for typically six weeks. These far from physiological storage conditions result in the so-called red cell storage lesion that is of importance both to blood bankers and to clinical practitioners. Here we review the current state of knowledge about the red cell storage lesion from a proteomic perspective. In particular, we describe the current models accounting for RBC aging and response to lethal stresses, review the published proteomic studies carried out to uncover the molecular basis of the RBC storage lesion, and conclude by suggesting a few possible proteomic studies that would provide further knowledge of the molecular alterations carried by RBCs stored in the cold for six weeks.

A productivity map of cognitive pretest methos for improving survey questions

Interest in cognitive pretest methods for evaluating survey questionnaires has been increasing for the last three decades. However, analysing the features of the scientific output in the field can be difficult due to its prevalence in public and private institutes whose main mission is not scientific research. The aim of this research is to characterize the current state of scientific output in the field by means of two bibliometric studies for the period from 1980 to 2007. Study 1 analysed documents obtained from the more commonly used bibliographic databases. Study 2 supplemented the body of documents from Study 1 with documents from non-indexed journals, conference papers, etc. Results show a constant growth in the number of publications. The wide dispersion of publication sources, together with the highlighted role of the public and private institutions as centres of production, can also be identified as relevant characteristics of the scientific output in this field.

A road map toward a globally harmonized approach for occupational health surveillance and epidemiology in nanomaterial workers

OBJECTIVE: Few epidemiological studies have addressed the health of workers exposed to novel manufactured nanomaterials. The small current workforce will necessitate pooling international cohorts. METHOD: A road map was defined for a globally harmonized framework for the careful choice of materials, exposure characterization, identification of study populations, definition of health endpoints, evaluation of appropriateness of study designs, data collection and analysis, and interpretation of the results. RESULTS: We propose a road map to reach global consensus on these issues. The proposed strategy should ensure that the costs of action are not disproportionate to the potential benefits and that the approach is pragmatic and practical. CONCLUSIONS: We should aim to go beyond the collection of health complaints, illness statistics, or even counts of deaths; the manifestation of such clear endpoints would indicate a failure of preventive measures.

Road Map Math, 1976

Road Map Math is an instructional program for low-achieving students in grades four to twelve. It is helpful in teaching language arts, place geography, map reading and mathematics. This booklet was made in conjunction with Department of Public Instruction, Price Laboratory School at the University of Northern Iowa and the Planning and Research Division of the Iowa Department of Transportation.

Let's K-Map Play: Juego de aprendizaje de Karnagh Maps para móvil

En este informe se describe el trabajo de fin de máster, centrado en el estudio de la gamificación como herramienta de aprendizaje aplicada a dispositivos móviles. Se ha realizado una revisión de los artículos científicos que tratan sobre el tema de la gamificación como herramienta educativa,para terminar el trabajo desarrollando un prototipo de juego para el aprendizaje de mapas de Karnaugh. Se ha optado por un desarrollo multiplataforma y se han revisado los frameworks de desarrollo más populares para desarrollo móvil multiplataforma así como los motores de juegos aplicables a este caso. Tras la implementación, se ha probado el prototipo en dos sistemas operativos móviles libres: Android y Firefox OS.

El treball centrat amb les famílies. Anàlisi de treball de la Fundació Map i disseny d’una proposta de millora

L’estudi que es presenta a continuació es basa de dos grans objectius generals. El primer és el desenvolupament d’un anàlisi de la metodologia de treball que segueix la Fundació Map en el treball amb les famílies a partir d’una recollida de dades mitjançant diferents instruments de recerca. El darrer objectiu és el disseny d’una proposta de millora, a partir de l’anàlisi realitzat, en la intervenció amb les famílies de la Fundació Map des de la línia metodològica del Treball Centrat amb la Família. Els dos objectius queden subjectes a la prèvia realització, i primera part de la investigació, d’una fonamentació teòrica per tal de conèixer i estudiar més detalladament els conceptes fonamentals per a desenvolupar la recerca descrits per a diferents autors experts d’aquest àmbit.
