DESARROLLO DE UNA BASE DE DATOS Y UNA APLICACIÓN WEB DE ACCESO A LA MISMA PARA UN GRUPO DE INVESTIGACIÓN MARINA DE ORGANISMOS DE PROFUNDIDAD (DEEP-SEA)

Este proyecto se fraguó previamente a la elección de un trabajo final de carrera. Para poder entenderlo debo mencionar que trabajo como titulado superior de investigación y laboratorio en el Instituto de Ciencias del Mar (ICM)del Consejo Superior de Investigaciones Científicas (CSIC), dentro de un grupo de investigación en oceanografía biológica, concretamente en recursos marinos renovables. En base a mi experiencia con este tipo de entorno de investigación, observe que existían una serie de mejoras de carácter técnico que se podrían introducir, y que ha la larga iban a facilitar mucho más el trabajo científico del grupo.Este grupo durante muchos años se ha dedicado a la obtención de datos de dos especies marinas de interés comercial del mar Mediterráneo que tienen su hábitat en aguas profundas: la gamba rosada (Aristeus antennatus) y la cigala (Nephrops norvegicus). Por ende, de manera colateral, datos de las especies que interaccionan con ellas, y que por este hecho se ven influenciadas al ser pescadas las anteriores. En estos años ha ido en aumento la evidencia de que ecosistemas más someros de nuestros mares tienen una relación mucho mayor de lo que se suponía con los ecosistemas profundos de los mismos. Además estos ecosistemas profundos influyen en los someros, también más de lo que cabía esperar, actuando de refugio de larvas y especies que tienen capacidad de sobrevivir en rangos batimétricos amplios. Si desean tener una visión más profunda al respecto pueden ver algunas de las últimas referencias bibliográficas a las que hago referencia en este párrafo acerca de este hecho, así como del incremento de la importancia de los grupos de investigación en el mundo dedicados a este tipo de investigación. En algunas de estas publicaciones han participado miembros del grupo al cual va dirigido el trabajo que aquí expongo.A medida que crecía el número de miembros del grupo, la importancia del mismo, la mejora tecnológica empleada en los muestreos, las colaboraciones internacionales con otras instituciones y la cantidad de proyectos en el grupo de investigación, crecía a su vez proporcionalmente, la cantidad de datos y la disparidad en formatos y sistemas de almacenaje (Hojas MS Excel o bases de datos MS Access, archivos de texto, etc.). Se ha hecho necesaria entonces la creación de una herramienta que los gestione de una forma común, y una base de datos para el almacenaje de los mismos de una forma coherente y robusta. Así mismo el hecho de tener los datos en una fuente común, posibilitará su distribución a otras bases de datos mundiales sobre la materia con las cuales se colabora, dependientes de organismos tan en la cresta a de la ola, como el Census of marine life (COML), el Alfred Wegener Institute (AWI) y el Center for Marine Environmental Sciences (MARUM)de Alemania. Estos a su vez carecen de datos de las zonas geográficas pertenecientes al mar Mediterráneo foco de la investigación del grupo.

Infección por virus pandémico (H1N1) 2009 en Andalucía

In April 2009, in response to the WHO's alert due to the existence of human infection cases with a new AH1N1 influenza virus, known as swine flu, Andalusian Health Authorities trigger an specific action plan. The surveillance actions developped provided us with appropriate clinical, epidemiological and virological characteristics of the disease. During the first few days, contingency plans were set up based on epidemiological surveillance and outbreak control measures were adopted through early alert and rapid response systems. After phase 6 was declared, influenza sentinel and severe cases surveillance were used in order to plan healthcare services, to reduce transmission and to identify and protect the most vulnerable population groups. Behaviour of pandemic influenza in Andalusia was similar to that observed in the rest of the world. Atack rate was similar to a seasonal flu and the peak was reached at the 46th/2009 week. Most of them were mild cases and affected particularly to young people. The average age of hospitalised patients was 32. Prior pulmonary disease, smoking and morbid obesity (BMI>40) were the most common pathologies and risk factors in severe cases. An impact scenario of pandemic wave in Andalusia, with an expected attack rate from 2 to 5%, was prepared considering watt observed in the southern hemisphere. Characteristics of the epidemic concerning its extent, severity and mortality rate were adjusted to this scenario.

Presentación de la experiencia de la UOC en temas de acceso abierto, en la Mesa redonda que tuvo lugar en el marco de las Jornadas: "Nuevas formas de leer y escribir por medio del acceso abierto" celebradas en el Paraninfo de la Universidad de Zaragoza el 12 de diciembre de 2011.

Análisis de las de las funcionalidades 2.0 ofrecidas por los repositorios españoles

Els Repositoris Institucionals suposen un element nou en l'entorn universitari pel que fa a la comunicació científica i a la presència digital de la producció de les universitats. Però l'entorn digital evoluciona molt ràpidament, així com els diferents agents implicats en la publicació científica. El canvi més important en la comunicació web que s'ha donat en els últims anys ha estat l'aparició dels serveis englobats sota l'etiqueta Web 2.0 en què s'inclouen diferents serveis per compartir enllaços, objectes digitals, gestionar relacions socials, reutilitzar informació, etc. Algunes publicacions científiques ja estan oferint aquest tipus de serveis. El present treball analitza el grau d'implantació d'aquest tipus de serveis en l'àmbit dels dipòsits institucionals espanyols. Per això en primer lloc s'identifiquen els tipus de serveis considerats 2.0 i que poden ser d'utilitat per a la comunicació científica. En segon lloc es comptabilitza quines d'aquestes possibilitats son ofertes pels repositoris i per últim s'analitzen els resultats per a comprovar les accions realitzades i identificar les possibles línies de millora.

Tendencias de la mortalidad por enfermedades cardiovasculares en Andalucía entre 1975 y 2004

Background: Cardiovascular diseases are ranked among the leading causes of death in the industrialized countries. This study is aimed at ascertaining the mortality trends by ischemic heart disease (IHD) and cerebrovascular diseases (CVD) in Andalusia within the 1975-2004 period. Method: Based on the official IHD and CVD death statistics and the related populations, the gross rates (GR) and age-adjusted rates (TS) and the Potential Years of Life Lost (PYLL) were calculated. To quantify the trends and their change points, a joinpoint regression analysis was made. Results: The number of IHD deaths for females rose from 2,086 deaths in 1975 to 3,336 in 2004, the TS having dropped from 74.29 to 50.94 deaths/100,000 females, the PYLL having dropped from 173.65 years to 90.56 years/100,000 females. The number of deaths for males rose from 2,854 deaths in 1975 to 4,085 in 2004, the TS having dropped from 147, 67 to 104.96 deaths /100,000 males. The PYLL showed a like behaviour from the first to the last year of the series, showing values of 716.46 and 460.04 years / 100,000 males. For the IHD in females, the number of deaths in absolute numbers dropped from 4,712 to 4,221, the TS having dropped from 166.00 to 62.08 deaths in females, and the PYLL from 338.08 to 87.63 years / 100,000 females. For males, the number of deaths dropped from 3,714 to 2,951, the TS from 206.88 deaths /100,000 males in 1975 to 76.12 /100,000 males in 2004, and the PYLL dropping from 533.12 to 182.38 years / 100,000 males. Conclusions: The trend in mortality due to IHD was not constant either among females or males, although it has always been a downward trend, the drop being statistically significant. The drop in the CVD has been such a major one that both the absolute numbers and the gross rates are lower for the most recent years that the first years in the series studied despite the aging of Andalusia’s population.

Análisis del modelo salutogénico en España: aplicación en salud pública e implicaciones para el modelo de activos en salud

This article seeks to provide an in depth review about one of the most revolutionary and influential methods used in understanding the variables and processes that explain human health. Based on a new vision in the analysis of the consequences of theNazi Holocaust, a doctor-sociologist—Aaron Antonovsky— managed to influence medicine and behavioral science by facilitating the keys for the optimal development of public health today. Despite the fact that this theory began appearing in the1970s in the 20th century, its real development and expansion have been seen in recent years. In fact, in Spain, there is littlescientific literature that analyses the theoretic keys of the model in depth. This work seek to cover this gap; to achieve this objective, it first presents how the construct of salutogenesis arose, the social-cultural context that promoted it, as well as the importance public health acquires today. This is the aim of this work, which analyses the theoretical bases of the salutogenesis model,with specific emphasis on its background and precursors, aswell as its inception, development and current expansion

Morbilidad psíquica, existencia de diagnóstico y consumo de psicofármacos. Diferencias por comunidades autónomas según la Encuesta Nacional de Salud de 2006

Background: Most of the studies on sychological distress in Spain have been conducted in small geographical areas or specific population groups. However, there are no studies that provide representative data for each Autonomous Community (AC). The objectives of this paper are to determine, both in Spain and in the AC, the prevalence of psychological distress, diagnosis, use of psychoactive medication, social support and self-perceived health, as well as to study the association between psychological distress and the rest of the variables. Methods: Cross-sectional study, using data from the 2006 National Health Survey, that was completed by 29,478 persons. Variables studied: sociodemographics, psychological distress (GHQ-12), self-perceived health, mental disorder diagnosis, functional social support (Duke) and use and prescription of psychoactive medication. Results: The prevalence of psychological distress in Spain was 20,1%; the highest prevalence was found in Canary Islands (28,2%) and the lowest in La Rioja (12,2%). Among those who presented psychological distress, 62,4% had never received a mental disorder diagnosis, and 71,6% had not used psychoactive medication in the last year. The highest prevalences of non-diagnosed cases (81,8%) and cases non-treated with psychoactive medication (83,1%) were found in La Rioja, whereas the lowest prevalences were found in Asturias. Eight percent of the persons who presented psychological distress had low social support and 63,8% reported bad self-perceived health. Conclusions: Psychological distress is a prevalent phenomenon, and more than half of the persons who suffer it receive neither a diagnosis nor psychoactive medication. Moreover, there are considerable differences between the AC.

Paternity and health services. Qualitative research on men's experiences during pregnancy, delivery and postpartum of theirs partners

Background: Little research has been carried out with regards to the inclusion of men during the birth process. The objective of this paper involves exploring the needs and expectations of the health services manifested by a group of fathers as a result of their experience during the birth process. Methods: Qualitative research was carried out in Granada in 2004 via individual interviews with fathers who showed shared responsibility in the upbringing. The profile is: employment, medium-high educational level, one or more child: 0-6 months of age. The transcript was subsequently submitted to hermeneutic analysis. Results: Some semantic constructs are: 1) Health Services do not concede the women as protagonists, 2) Birth process is depending on the body. Fathers can only support and fight for the relevance of men, 3) Men seem like “invisible”, 4) Health services inhibit their participation, and 5) have dealings with fathers according to their gender roles. The participants address the relationship between expectations of care during the birth process and unsatisfied demands, and the manner in which they employ the obstacles encountered within health services that inhibit their participation as arguments that confirm their separation from the process. Conclusions: This paper draws attention to the limited scope of the provision of healthcare during the birth process in terms of protagonism afforded to fathers. Indeed, despite their requisitory discourse, the interviewees manifest contradictory attitudes in the face of changes that require them to make commitments. We identify elements that could be improved to adapt services to the needs of fathers and vice versa.

Influencia de las características individuales y de las condiciones laborales en la gravedad de las lesiones por accidente de trabajo registradas en Andalucía en 2003

Background. The study of the severity of occupational injuries is very important for the establishment of prevention plans. The aim of this paper is to analyze the distribution of occupational injuries by a) individual factors b) work place characteristics and c) working conditions and to analyze the severity of occupational injuries by this characteristics in men and women in Andalusia. Methods. Injury data came from the accident registry of the Ministry of Labor and Social Issues in 2003. Dependent variable: the severity of the injury: slight, serious, very serious and fatal; the independent variables: the characteristics of the worker, company data, and the accident itself. Bivariate and multivariate analysis were done to estimate the probability of serious, very serious and fatal injury, related to other variables, through odds ratio (OR), and using a 95% confidence interval (CI 95%). Results. The 82,4% of the records were men and 17,6% were women, of whom the 78,1% are unskilled manual workers, compared to 44,9% of men. The men belonging to class I have a higher probability of more severe lesions (OR = 1,67, 95% CI = 1,17 – 2,38). Conclusions. The severity of the injury is associated with sex, age and type of injury. In men it is also related with the professional situation, the place where the accident happened, an unusual job, the size and the characteristics of the company and the social class, and in women with the sector

La gripe A desde la teoría de la elección racional: propuestas para la toma de decisiones de políticas preventivas

This article is a reflection on the social uncertainty caused by Influenza A and on the consequences that it can have on decision making in health promotion policies. We use concepts and metaphors of the Rational Choice Theory, among them, the “ingratitude effect” or the “distrust effect”, as we analyse how these can become obstacles for the efficiency of prevention policies. Then, we focus on the information asymmetry of the principal-agent relationship, and we propose measures to diminish the “moral risk” that they cause. We finish by advancing some proposals for designing lines and strategies of action in health promotion policies.
