Modelo para la creación de un portal en internet que les facilite a los laboratorios farmaceúticos la promoción médica a través del uso de medios virtuales

La presente investigación se realizó con el propósito de desarrollar un modelo que fuera la base para que los laboratorios farmacéuticos puedan orientar su promoción médica hacia el uso de los recursos tecnológicos actuales como es el internet. Además de proveer un mapa conceptual de los pasos que deben seguir los laboratorios para pasar de los medios tradicionales de promoción médica (Brick) a los medios virtuales e interactivos (Click) a través de la red, es decir, actualmente la promociónmédica se hace a través de los canales tradicionales de comercialización; a esta forma la llamamos "Brick", pero nuestra propuesta permite crear una estrategia para que el laboratorio transforme la promoción médica a través de las tecnologías de comunicación, como el internet, creando un nuevo canal de comercialización, "Click", virtual, en línea. El modelo puede ser aplicado por cualquier laboratorio farmacéutico y no tiene ninguna exclusividad, puesto que es genérico; los principios aplicadosson de conocimiento público. Lo que haría la diferencia entre unportal y otro sería la forma como cada laboratorio enfrente el diseño y la implementación del mismo.

An Analysis of the Implementation and Perceived Effectiveness of the SchoolMAX Family Portal

ABSTRACT Title of Document: AN ANALYSIS OF THE IMPLEMENTATION AND PERCEIVED EFFECTIVENESS OF THE SCHOOLMAX FAMILY PORTAL Warren Wesley Watts, Doctor of Education, 2015 Directed By: Margaret J. McLaughlin, Ph.D. Department of Counseling, Higher Education and Special Education School districts have spent millions of dollars implementing student information systems that offer family portals with web-based access to parents and students. One of the main purposes of these systems is to improve school-to-home communication. Research has shown that when school-to-home communication is implemented effectively, parent involvement improves and student achievement increases (Epstein, 2001). The purpose of the study was to (a) understand why parents used or refrained from using the family portal and (b) determine what barriers to use might exist. To this end, this descriptive study identified the information parent users accessed in the SchoolMAX family portal, determined how frequently parents accessed the portal, and ascertained whether parents perceived an increase in communication with their children about academic matters after they began accessing the portal. Finally, the study sought to identify whether barriers existed that prevented parents from using the family portal. The inquiry employed three data sources to answer the aforementioned queries. These sources included (a) a survey sent electronically to 19,108 parents who registered online for the SchoolMAX family portal; (b) SchoolMAX portal usage data from the student information system for system usage between January 1, 2015 and June 30, 2015; and (c) a paper survey sent to 691 parents of students that had never used the SchoolMAX family portal in one elementary school, one middle school and one high school that were representative of other schools in the district. Survey results indicated that parents at all grade levels used the family portal. Usage data also confirmed that approximately 19% of the students had parents who monitored their progress through the family portal. Usage data also showed that parents were monitoring approximately 25% of students in secondary schools (6th – 12th grade) and 16% of students in elementary schools. Of the wide menu of resources available through the SchoolMAX family portal, parents used three areas most frequently: attendance, daily grades, and report cards. Approximately 70% of parents responded that their communication had improved with their children about academic matters since they started using the SchoolMAX family portal, and 90% of parents responded that the SchoolMAX family portal was an effective or somewhat effective tool. Parents also expressed interest in the addition of additional information to the SchoolMAX family portal. Specifically, the top three additions parents wanted to see included homework assignments, high stakes test scores, and graduation requirements. Parents also reported that 92% of them spoke to their children at least 2 to 3 times per week about academics. Due to the low response rate of the parent non-user survey, potential barriers to using the SchoolMAX family portal could not be addressed in this study. However, this issue may be a useful research topic in a future study. Keywords: school to home communication, student information systems, family portal, parent portal

Effect of portal hypertension in the small bowel: an endoscopic approach

BACKGROUND AND AIM: The effects of portal hypertension in the small bowel are largely unknown. The aim of the study was to prospectively assess portal hypertension manifestations in the small bowel. METHODS: We compared, by performing enteroscopy with capsule endoscopy, the endoscopic findings of 36 patients with portal hypertension, 25 cirrhotic and 11 non-cirrhotic, with 30 controls. RESULTS: Varices, defined as distended, tortuous, or saccular veins, and areas of mucosa with a reticulate pattern were significantly more frequent in patients with PTH. These two findings were detected in 26 of the 66 patients (39%), 25 from the group with PTH (69%) and one from the control group (3%) (P < 0.0001). Among the 25 patients with PTH exhibiting these patterns, 17 were cirrhotic and 8 were non-cirrhotic (P = 0.551). The presence of these endoscopic changes was not related to age, gender, presence of cirrhosis, esophageal or gastric varices, portal hypertensive gastropathy, portal hypertensive colopathy, prior esophageal endoscopic treatment, current administration of beta-blockers, or Child-Pugh Class C. More patients with these endoscopic patterns had a previous history of acute digestive bleeding (72% vs. 36%) (P = 0.05). Active bleeding was found in two patients (5.5%). CONCLUSIONS: The presence of varices or areas of mucosa with a reticulate pattern are manifestations of portal hypertension in the small bowel, found in both cirrhotic and non-cirrhotic patients. The clinical implications of these findings, as regards digestive bleeding, are uncertain, although we documented acute bleeding from the small bowel in two patients (5.5%).

Portal GeoVariscoPT, inovação, partilha e discussão no estudo do Varisco Português

GeoVariscoPT é um portal de utilização aberta concebido para permitir a discussão em torno de afloramentos que, pelas suas características, são chave para a compreensão da evolução prémesozóica de Portugal. Para cada afloramento, existe disponível para consulta uma série de dados de índole diversa (e.g. litoestratigráfica, estrutural ou geoquímica), podendo os utilizadores adicionarem em tempo real e sem qualquer controlo, os seus comentários sobre a interpretação dos afloramentos. Embora se trate de um portal concebido essencialmente para investigação pelas suas características pode igualmente ser utilizado em contexto pedagógico.

Criação de um portal de turismo místico

Atualmente, os “novos turistas” são utilizadores experientes das novas tecnologias e estão predispostos e motivados para praticar um tipo de turismo diferente, especialmente no que diz respeito ao planeamento das suas viagens para obter novas experiências. O presente estudo tem como objetivo analisar, através de uma revisão da literatura, um potencial segmento de turismo designado de Turismo Místico, com o propósito de criar um website de oferta de experiências turísticas em Portugal com carater inovador e sentimental. O Website foi desenvolvido e testado numa fase beta através de um questionário adaptado do Modelo WebQual de Loiacono. Os resultados obtidos, além de permitirem a avaliação da perceção da qualidade do Website, também indicam formas de melhorar ou adaptar o produto final aos objetivos planeados. A principal conclusão destaca o fator entretenimento como o mais importante na perceção da qualidade do Website e na intenção decisiva de revisita do mesmo. A era do marketing digital criou um consumidor mais proativo, o prosumidor, que participa no processo de desenvolvimento de produtos e serviços.

Dipyridamole plus aspirin versus aspirin alone in the secondary prevention after TIA or stroke: a meta-analysis by risk

Objectives: Our aim was to study the effect of combination therapy with aspirin and dipyridamole (A+D) over aspirin alone (ASA) in secondary prevention after transient ischemic attack or minor stroke of presumed arterial origin and to perform subgroup analyses to identify patients that might benefit most from secondary prevention with A+D. Data sources: The previously published meta-analysis of individual patient data was updated with data from ESPRIT (N=2,739); trials without data on the comparison of A+D versus ASA were excluded. Review methods: A meta-analysis was performed using Cox regression, including several subgroup analyses and following baseline risk stratification. Results: A total of 7,612 patients (5 trials) were included in the analyses, 3,800 allocated to A+D and 3,812 to ASA alone. The trial-adjusted hazard ratio for the composite event of vascular death, non-fatal myocardial infarction and non-fatal stroke was 0.82 (95% confidence interval 0.72-0.92). Hazard ratios did not differ in subgroup analyses based on age, sex, qualifying event, hypertension, diabetes, previous stroke, ischemic heart disease, aspirin dose, type of vessel disease and dipyridamole formulation, nor across baseline risk strata as assessed with two different risk scores. A+D were also more effective than ASA alone in preventing recurrent stroke, HR 0.78 (95% CI 0.68 – 0.90). Conclusion: The combination of aspirin and dipyridamole is more effective than aspirin alone in patients with TIA or ischemic stroke of presumed arterial origin in the secondary prevention of stroke and other vascular events. This superiority was found in all subgroups and was independent of baseline risk. ---------------------------7dc3521430776 Content-Disposition: form-data; name="c14_creators_1_name_family" Halkes
