BACKGROUND: The epidermolysis bullosas are a group of hereditary diseases in which the mechanic fragility of epithelial tissue produces blisters, repetitive ulcerations and scarring, as well as several multiorgan and psychosocial complications. OBJECTIVE: To determine the economic cost for medical care in patients with recessive dystrophic epidermolysis bullosa within their prototypical hospital stay, as well as within a year of ambulatory caregiving at the Epidermolysis Bullosa Clinic at the National Institute for Pediatrics in Mexico City (INP). MATERIAL AND METHOD: A prototypical case of an eight-year-old patient diagnosed with recessive dystrophic epidermolysis bullosa was selected and the costs of the most recent hospitalization at INP were calculated, along with other costs produced during a year of care (2016-2017) at the Epidermolysis Bullosa Clinic. RESULTS: The final cost for hospitalization were between 194,757.38 and 345,402.55 Mexican pesos, according to calculations based on medicine prices from the social security system and out-of-hospital pharmacies, respectively. The cost of medicines represented the highest input within the total. The final cost of a year of ambulatory care given by the Epidermolysis Bullosa Clinic was of 604,927.25 Mexican pesos, of which special dressing products represented the highest cost entry. CONCLUSIONS: Epidermolysis bullosa generates high economic cost for patients and health care systems in the short and long term, due to permanent need of multiple medicines, utensils and specialized medical assistance, all of these costs that most of the Mexican population cannot afford.

For years, the large publishing groups have been raising a growth strategy based on their territorial and linguistic expansion. For this they have resorted to the absorption of all types of companies, linked or not with their main business area, and the elimination of those less economically profitable divisions. The disappearance of Círculo de Lectores, belonging to the Planet Group, is part of these strategies. Victim of the lack of adaptation to the new digital context, he suffered from a system based on an obsolete model, designed for the paper environment and highly effective in it, but incompatible with the new practices of a society deeply digitized in cultural consumption. Also its editorial side, embodied in the Galaxia Gutenberg seal, and in the excellence of collections such as the one of Complete Works, has been affected by these movements, far from what Einaudi considered as the Yes edition: this is, the one that sought excellence, quality and innovation, and not necessaritly profitability. This article discusses the fundamentals of Círculo de Lectores and carries out an analysis of the circumstances of their disappearance in line with the strategies developed by the large publishing groups.

The collaboration, familiarity, and harmony between God and the prophet, as well as the prophet’s mediation, which appear in the first part of the Book of Joel, prompt a process of intercession in the assembly of the people. This process concludes in Joel 2:17 with a sincere and profound petition centered on God’s mercy. The themes of God’s mercy and prophetic mediation, which are particularly relevant to the Book of the Twelve, run through this article, which focuses on the reading of the first part of Joel and the Book of Jonah. The development of these themes leads to the article’s main conclusions about the essence, content, and form of the prayer of petition. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

The objective of this article is to analyze the psycho-metric adjustment of two scales for a Disposition for Social Reconciliation (DRS) in the context of Colombia. Two studies were carried out, based on samplings from the inhabitants of Barranquilla (387 victimized persons and 387 members of general population) and Medellín (384 members of the general population, of whom 27,6% acknowledged that they had been direct or indirect victims). Thus, both studies surveyed victimized persons, a key factor because victimization was used as a criterion for comparing the victimized respondents and the respondents from the general population. Victimization shows a positive and significant correlation with a DRS. The results confirm the validity of the construct. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

The Tagus-Segura Transfer has become since its inauguration in 1979 in one of the hydraulic infrastructures with more interterritorial tensions in Spain. This is due to his strategic value for the development of the peninsular southeast where it attends agricultural and urban-tourist water consumption with great social and economic implications. The objective of this research is analyze the causes and the possible consequences of the operation of the Tagus-Segura Transfer with the recent modification of his exploitation rules (increase of the level of no transfer in 400 hm3 in the headwater) and the increase of the desalination in the receiving regions as a replacement of transfers. To this end, the effects of the operation of the new exploitation rules and the possible alternatives have been analyzed to resolve a conflict that gets worse during each cycle of intense and prolonged drought, without the State and the autonomies through hydrological planning, has given a satisfactory response to the donor and recipient regions.

Our discussion focuses on the most relevant problems and vicissitudes of Spain's present system of government. Specifically, it addresses the implementation of electoral parity criteria, as well as the legislative trajectory regulating political party financing in Spain. The introduction of gender quotas for electoral candidates has not been free of difficulties, but has been favorably resolved in the jurisprudence of the Constitutional Court. Concerning the financing system of political groups, Spanish legislators are increasingly imposing greater restrictions to control political corruption that originates in the irregular practices that afflict most contemporary democracies.

This study analyses the prior knowledge and perception of Sustainable Development Goals among students of the Master's degree in Secondary Education. It sets out the design, validation and implementation of an ad hoc research instrument (the survey) applied to a sample of 726 students from different Spanish universities. The results showed a lower degree of integration of social development goals in the compulsory stages of education, but a slight increase at university level. In relation to gender and age variables, no significant differences were found by gender, but non-significant differences were found by age, with people under 30 years old showing greater knowledge of social development goals. It is concluded that the student body has a lack of training with regard to social development goals at all levels of education, which shows the need to increase their study in the curriculum of future teachers.
