This theoretical reflection intends to show the inter-subjective relationship that takes place in health and nursing practices under the following theoretical perspectives: Institutional Analysis, Psychodynamics of Labor and the Theory of Communicative Action, with an emphasis on the latter. Linking these concepts to the Marxist approach to work in the field of health emerges from recognizing the need for its continuous reconstruction-in this case, with a view to understand the interaction and communication intrinsic to work in action. The theory of Communicative Action seeks to consider these two inextricable dimensions: work as productive action and as interaction. The first corresponds to instrumental action based on technical rules with a production-guided rationale. The second refers to the interaction that takes place as communicative action and seeks understanding among subjects. We assume that adopting this theoretical perspective in the analysis of health and nursing practices opens new possibilities for clarifying its social and historical process and inter-subjective connections.

[ES]La respiración es un proceso fisiológico común a todos los organismos marinos. En los estudios oceanográficos se ha determinado, comúnmente, mediante la cuantificación del consumo de oxígeno de organismos incubados en botellas. Esta metodología es tediosa y lenta, por lo que Packard et al. (1971) propusieron el uso del análisis bioquímico basado en la actividad de las enzimas implicadas en la respiración, el Sistema de Transporte de Electrones (ETS). Este análisis mide la velocidad máxima que dichas enzimas pueden tener, determinando la respiración potencial de los organismos. Dicha velocidad estará controlada por la disponibilidad intracelular de sus sustratos, los piridín nucleótidos (NADH y NADPH). En el presente trabajo, se ha analizado el metabolismo respiratorio, a través de medidas del ETS y de los piridín nucleótidos, tanto en el dinoflagelado Oxyrrhis marina en estudios de laboratorio, como en organismos recogidos del medio marino durante la campaña de circunnavegación MALASPINA 2010

Body height decreases throughout the day due to fluid loss from the intervertebral disk. This study investigated whether spinal shrinkage was greater during workdays compared with nonwork days, whether daily work stressors were positively related to spinal shrinkage, and whether job control was negatively related to spinal shrinkage. In a consecutive 2-week ambulatory field study, including 39 office employees and 512 days of observation, spinal shrinkage was measured by a stadiometer, and calculated as body height in the morning minus body height in the evening. Physical activity was monitored throughout the 14 days by accelerometry. Daily work stressors, daily job control, biomechanical workload, and recreational activities after work were measured with daily surveys. Multilevel regression analyses showed that spinal disks shrank more during workdays than during nonwork days. After adjustment for sex, age, body weight, smoking status, biomechanical work strain, and time spent on physical and low-effort activities during the day, lower levels of daily job control significantly predicted increased spinal shrinkage. Findings add to knowledge on how work redesign that increases job control may possibly contribute to preserving intervertebral disk function and preventing occupational back pain.

Aiming to identify educational needs to promote employment in the field of Occupational Health and Safety in Spain, this paper analyses the matching degree between the existing university educational offer and the professional demand. Results indicate that the new official Masters are well driven but, at graduate level, a broad range of topics regarding occupational hazards should be promoted and the scope of cross subjects should be expanded. New profiles that are emerging within this field are also identified.
