Education for sustainable development (ESD) has become a focus of international education attention, for its multidisciplinary character and for the interest in caring for the environment due to their degradation and environmental impact. This study compared two tests, one was conducted before confinement on 325 participants with 3545 responses, and one in confinement on 350 participants with 3832 responses. Surveys were conducted using Google Forms, based on 11 questions with its items verified by ANOVA and Bonferroni. The COVID-19 lockdown significantly influenced the results of both tests. The results indicated increased awareness of the environment during confinement. At the educational level it was intended to take an initial test and a year later perform a second test to compare them. The first test was carried out online at school, and the second one was held a year later in confinement due to COVID-19. This unexpected circumstance became an opportunity to value and compare them in different circumstances. Surveys were conducted using Google Forms. The results indicated a more significant concern for sustainability. The conclusion has been that students behave more sensitively to sustainable development in confinement circumstances.

The results obtained between the patient-family group and the professionals were compared.Results: We received 331 responses, of which 215 were from patients and family members (65%) and 116 (35%) from professionals. The most represented category among professionals was nursing (53%), followed by assistants (24%) and physicians (12.9%). A higher proportion of patients (66%) preferred rooms in groups of 10– 12 patients as opposed to professionals who preferred open-plan rooms (p< 0.001). The options that showed the most differences between patients and professionals were chatting with colleagues and intimacy (options most voted by patients/families), versus performing group activities and visibility (professionals).Conclusion: The professionals’ view of patients’ needs does not always coincide with the patients’ perception. The inclusion of the perspective of people with kidney disease continues to be a pending issue in which we must improve both patient organizations and professionals, and the opinion of professionals and patients must be included in the design of a dialysis unit and the activities to be developed in it.Plain Language Summary: People with kidney disease on hemodialysis spend 4 hours of their lives three times a week in hemodialysis units. Although the new concept of 21st century medicine gives special prominence to the opinion of patients and family members, the reality is that this is rarely considered when establishing the requirements that a dialysis center should meet.The aim of this study is to know and compare the opinion and preferences of patients, family members and professionals regarding the design of a dialysis unit and the potential activities they believe should be carried out during the session in order to provide architects with real information for the construction of a dialysis center.This is the first survey in Spain that attempts to approach both the opinions of the patients and the professionals working in the units.The professionals’ view of patients’ needs does not always coincide with the patients’ perception. The inclusion of the perspective of people with kidney disease continues to be a pending issue in which should be improve both patient organizations and professionals, and the opinion of professionals and patients should be included in the design of a dialysis unit and the activities to be developed in it.Keywords: hemodialysis, patient experience, dialysis unit design, preferences, patients, healthcare professionals

The thermodynamic characteristics, antioxidant potential, and photoprotective benefits of full‐spectrum cannabidiol (FS‐CBD) against UVB‐induced cellular death were examined in this study. In silico analysis of CBD showed antioxidant capacity via proton donation and UV absorption at 209.09, 254.73, and 276.95 nm, according to the HAT and SPLET methodologies. FS‐CBD protected against UVB‐induced bacterial death for 30 min. FS‐CBD protected against UVB‐induced cell death by 42% (1.5 μg/mL) and 35% (3.5 μg/mL) in an in vitro keratinocyte cell model. An in vivo acute irradiated CD‐1et/et mouse model (UVB‐irradiated for 5 min) presented very low photoprotection when FS‐CBD was applied cutaneously, as determined by histological analyses. In vivo skin samples showed that FS‐CBD regulated inflammatory responses by inhibiting the inflammatory markers TGF‐β1 and NLRP3. The docking analysis showed that the CBD molecule had a high affinity for TGF‐β1 and NLRP3, indicating that protection against inflammation might be mediated by blocking these proinflammatory molecules. This result was corroborated by the docking interactions between CBD and TGF‐β1 and NLRP3, which resulted in a high affinity and inhibition of both proteins The present work suggested a FS‐CBD moderate photoprotective agent against UVB light‐induced skin damage and that this effect is partially mediated by its anti‐inflammatory activity.
