Socioeconomic determinants and self-rated health among hotel housekeepers in the Balearic Islands (Spain)
Background Hotel housekeepers constitute an important occupational group in the Balearic Islands (Spain). Housekeeping is considered low-skilled and precarious and typically involves high physical demands and time pressure. The aim of this study is to analyze the association between the socioeconomic determinants of health and hotel housekeepers’ self-rated health. Methods This is a cross-sectional study conducted in Primary Health Care in the Ba…
Human Milk Feeding for Septic Newborn Infants Might Minimize Their Exposure to Ventilation Therapy
Background. It has been well established that human milk feeding contributes to limiting lung diseases in vulnerable neonates. The primary aim of this study was to compare the need for mechanical ventilation between human milk-fed neonates with sepsis and formula-fed neonates with sepsis. Methods. All late preterm and full-term infants from a single center with sepsis findings from 2002 to 2017 were identified. Data on infant feeding during hospi…
Development and Evaluation of a Digital Health Intervention to Prevent Type 2 Diabetes in Primary Care
Digital health interventions can effectively prevent T2DM and reduce important T2DM risk factors such as overweight or hypertension. In Spain, this type of intervention is understudied. Moreover, there is controversy regarding the type of digital health interventions that are more effective. Findings from this study may contribute to address T2DM prevention, through a low-cost and easily implementable intervention
Less-PHARMA Study
Potentially inappropriate medication (PIM) increases adverse drug reactions and mortality, especially in excessively polymedicated patients. General practitioners are often in charge of this process. Some tools have been created to support them in this matter. This study aimed to measure the amount of potentially inappropriate medication among excessively polymedicated patients using several supporting tools and assess the feasibility of these to…
Implementation of the Eira 3 Intervention by Targeting Primary Health Care Practitioners
The World Health Organization (WHO) estimated that physical inactivity (PI) is responsible for 20 to 30% of all non-communicable diseases. We aimed to analyze the effectiveness of a multiple health behavior change (MHBC) intervention to increase physical activity (PA) in patients 45 to 75 years old who had at least 2 of 3 unhealthy behaviors (tobacco use, reduced fruit and vegetable consumption, and insufficient PA). The MHBC intervention is base…
Evaluating the Implementation of a Multicomponent Intervention Consisting of Education and Feedback on Reducing Benzodiazepine Prescriptions by General Practitioners
We identified constructs that could explain differences in the efficacy in implementation of the intervention. This information is relevant for the design of successful strategies for implementation of the intervention
Multiple health behaviour change primary care intervention for smoking cessation, physical activity and healthy diet in adults 45 to 75 years old (Eira study)
ClinicalTrials.gov , NCT03136211 . Registered 2 May 2017, "retrospectively registered
Alcohol and Tobacco Consumption, Personality, and Cybervictimization among Adolescents
Cyberbullying has emerged as a public health problem. Personality may play an important role in substance use and cybervictimization. The aim of this study was to examine whether tobacco and alcohol consumption and personality traits are associated with cybervictimization in Spanish adolescents. A cross-sectional study was conducted with 765 secondary students (aged 14-16) from 16 secondary schools in Spain. Participants completed a questionnaire…
Cybervictimization among secondary students
Our findings indicate that cyberbullying is a frequent and relevant problem in adolescents. Big Five personality traits are related with cybervictimization. Possible ways to design interventions include promoting social leisure activities, encourage responsible attitudes and provide stress coping tools
Complex multiple risk intervention to promote healthy behaviours in people between 45 to 75 years attended in primary health care (Eira study)
ClinicalTrials.gov , NCT03136211 .Retrospectively registered on May 2, 2017
Effectiveness of a complex intervention in reducing the prevalence of smoking among adolescents
Current Controlled Trials: NCT01602796
Determinants of non attendance to mammography program in a region with high voluntary health insurance coverage
Our data indicate that factors related to the type of insurance coverage (such as prior mammography at a private health center and supplemental private insurance) influenced non-participation in the screening program
