Occupational Exposure to Pesticides as a Risk Factor for Sleep Disorders
Inadequate sleep has been linked to a variety of impairments in bodily functions, including endocrine, metabolic, higher cortical function, and neurological disorders. For this reason, the aim of this study was to analyze the link between occupational pesticide exposure and sleep health among farmers in Almeria. A cross-sectional study was conducted among a population living on the coast of Almeria (southeastern Spain), where about 33,321 hectare…
Use of Digital Technology as a Collaborative Tool among Nursing Students—Survey Study and Validation
Nursing students positively assess the use of digital technology as a collaborative tool, regardless of age. Digital technology as a collaborative tool is perceived as beneficial, improves their involvement, and allows nursing students to obtain a better knowledge of their partners. These findings can help develop group projects and tools based on technology to train future nursing professionals. The questionnaire developed is a valid tool to ass…
Biohazard Accidents, Harmful Elements to the Wellness of Healthcare Workers, and Their Risk Factors
This study outlined the main factors that can contribute to healthcare professionals suffering these accidents. As a result, corrective measures must be taken against these risk factors to improve safety for healthcare workers in the future
Comparison of Analytical Values D-Dimer, Glucose, Ferritin and C-Reactive Protein of Symptomatic and Asymptomatic Covid-19 Patients
Those infected by COVID-19 develop various kinds of complications with varying degrees of severity. For this reason, it is necessary to evaluate its analytical values to predict and reduce the risks and complications derived from this pathology. A cross-sectional study was carried out a population in Almeria (south-eastern Spain) who had a positive Polymerase Chain Reaction test result from 1 March 2020 to 30 November 2020. The study involved 457…
Influence of Social Determinants of Health on Covid-19 Infection in Socially Vulnerable Groups
The coronavirus 2019 (COVID-19) pandemic has had a significant impact on the economy and health, especially for the most vulnerable social groups. The social determinants of health are one of the most relevant risks for becoming infected with COVID-19, due to the health consequences for those who are exposed to it. The objective of this study was to analyze the influence of social determinants in health on COVID-19 infection in vulnerable social …
De la enseñanza presencial a las hibridaciones (Facultad de Humanidades y Ciencias Sociales-Unam)
En este artículo se pretende compartir parte de las experiencias y dinámicas institucionales que se vivieron en la Facultad de Humanidades y Ciencias Sociales de la Universidad Nacional de Misiones durante las medidas del Aspo, con la intención de sostener la continuidad pedagógica y el derecho a la educación. Una descripción diacrónica permitirá exponer las fases organizativas que se propusieron como plan de contingencia, los problemas presentad…
Association between Crystalline Silica Dust Exposure and Silicosis Development in Artificial Stone Workers
Occupational exposure to respirable crystalline silica (SiO 2 ) is one of the most common and serious risks because of the health consequences for the workers involved. Silicosis is a progressive, irreversible, and incurable fibrotic lung disease caused by the inhalation of respirable crystalline silica dust. A cross-sectional epidemiological study was carried out to assess the occupational risk factors that may contribute to the onset of silicos…
Evaluation of Gonadal Alterations in a Population Environmentally Exposed to a Mixture of Endocrine Active Pesticides
Although there are studies that show that some pesticides produce gonadal dysfunction and gonadal cancer in different animals, there are not many studiesregardinghumans. This study determined the prevalence and risk in humans of developing ovarian or testicular dysfunction or cancer in areas with distinct exposure to pesticides, which have endocrine disrupting properties. A population-based case-control study was carried out on humans living in t…
Effects of a Clinical Simulation Course about Basic Life Support on Undergraduate Nursing Students’ Learning
Training in basic life support (BLS) using clinical simulation improves compression rates and the development of cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR) skills. This study analyzed the learning outcomes of undergraduate nursing students taking a BLS clinical simulation course. A total of 479 nursing students participated. A pre-test and post-test were carried out to evaluate theoretical knowledge of BLS through questions about anatomical physiology, …
New Family Models and Their Influence on the Affective Development of Their Children
The authors analyzed affectivity in children from same-sex parent and single-parent families in comparison with children who live in heterosexual family structures. Data from 165 questionnaires were analyzed by descriptive statistics, bivariate analysis, and multivariate analysis. In the raw bivariate data, the highest positive affectivity was seen in children who live in the model formed by 2 mothers. By adjusting the multivariate analysis model…
