Childhood obesity is a major public health burden. The prevalence of weight excess for children and the adolescent population (8 to 16 years) is 34.9%. During childhood, lifestyles are acquired, which are developed in adulthood. In this context, the role of parents is crucial, since they are the model to imitate. We aimed to evaluate the current evidence on the effects of family-based interventions as a tool in the treatment of childhood obesity. We reviewed studies indexed in several databases according to the Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analyses (PRISMA) guidelines. Original articles published from 1 January 2014 to 30 May 2024 with a controlled trial design were considered, in which family-based interventions were carried out compared to a control group or to data before the intervention. Although 148 records were identified in the search, 6 studies met inclusion criteria. Overall, studies reported beneficial effects of family-based interventions on improving anthropometric parameters: BMI z-score, BMI, waist circumference, and body fat percentage. Regarding nutritional and physical activity guidelines, general recommendations must consider increased consumption of fruits and vegetables, reducing sugary drinks, controlled screen time, and 30–60 min of physical activity/day. Thus, family-based interventions could be an effective non-pharmacological strategy for modulating childhood obesity, allowing families to modify their lifestyles.

There is a pressing need for more precise biomarkers of chronic kidney disease (CKD). Plasma samples from 820 subjects [231 with CKD, 325 with end-stage kidney disease (ESKD) and 264 controls] were analyzed by liquid chromatography with tandem mass spectrometry (LC-MS/MS) to determine a metabolic profile of 28 amino acids (AAs) and biogenic amines to test their value as markers of CKD risk and progression. The kynurenine/tryptophan ratio showed the strongest correlation with estimated glomerular filtration rate values (coefficient = −0.731, p < 0.0001). Models created with orthogonal partial least squares-discriminant analysis (OPLS-DA) containing the metabolic signature showed a high goodness of fit and predictability for controls/CKD (R2X:0.73:R2Y:0.92:Q2:0.92, p < 0.0001) and lower values for CKD/ESKD (R2X:0.56:R2Y:0.59:Q2:0.55, p < 0.0001). Based on generated VIP scores, the most relevant markers for segregating samples into control/CKD and CKD/ESKD groups were citrulline (1.63) and tryptophan (1.47), respectively. ROC analysis showed that the addition of the metabolic profile to a model including CKD classic risk factors improved the AUC from 86.7% (83.6–89.9) to 100% (100–100) for CKD risk (p < 0.0001) and from 63.0% (58.2–67.8) to 96.5% (95.3–97.8) for the risk of progression from CKD to ESKD (p < 0.0001). Plasma concentrations of AAs and related amines may be useful as diagnostic biomarkers of kidney disease, both for CKD risk and for progression of CKD patients to ESKD.

- Abstract
Producción Científica, Background: Chronic wounds are a challenge and a major cause of morbidity. A wound is considered chronic if healing does not occur within the expected time frame depending on the etiology and location of the wound. Objective: To assess the level of knowledge about chronic wound management of postgraduate nurses in different areas of the health system and their previous satisfaction with the training received during their undergraduate studies. Design: Cross-sectional study of a health system of 95,000 inhabitants and 557 nursing professionals working in it. Participants: Nurses working in the study health system and in areas with care for patients with chronic wounds in social, primary and hospital care. Results: Survey results described a low knowledge of chronic wound management in general. Data on knowledge according to area of work showed that nurses in primary care had the highest knowledge of wound etiology. Nurses working in health and social care were most knowledgeable in diagnostic knowledge. Hospital nurses showed the lowest knowledge overall. A relationship was observed when nurses had a master’s degree followed by an expert with better knowledge in the test. In addition, nurses reported little training in chronic wounds during their university studies (69.73 %, n = 106). Conclusions: Therefore, a review of this point should be considered to improve the management of chronic wounds and their correct approach among nursing students. A review of continuing and even specialised training needs in the clinical care setting should also be considered, Chair of Knowledge and Innovation of the Caja Rujal of Soria University Campus 12/2022.

- Abstract
Las alteraciones genéticas pueden causar cambios que contribuyen a la progresión de enfermedades neurodegenerativas de la retina. Estudiar los polimorfismos genéticos y su relación con la apoptosis en estas enfermedades es necesario para mejorar el diagnóstico, tratamiento y prevención, lo que a su vez mejora los resultados clínicos y el bienestar de los pacientes. Identificar polimorfismos en genes involucrados en la apoptosis que se asocien con el desarrollo y evolución de patologías neurodegenerativas de la retina. Revisión sistemática ajustada a la lista de verificación PRISMA. La búsqueda bibliográfica se ha llevado a cabo en bases de datos PubMed, Public Health Database y Scopus, con el objetivo de analizar estudios de casos controles, análisis de asociación, cohorte y antes y después publicados en los últimos diez años sobre los genes y polimorfismos vinculados con la apoptosis en la neurodegeneración retiniana y procesos asociados. Los resultados indican que veintitrés polimorfismos en los genes estudiados aumentan significativamente (p < 0.05) el riesgo y la progresión de la neurodegeneración retiniana en enfermedades como el glaucoma, la degeneración macular asociada a la edad (DMAE) y la retinopatía diabética (RD). Siete polimorfismos actúan como factores protectores, previniendo la progresión de la neurodegeneración mediante la apoptosis., Departamento de Enfermería, Máster en Enfermería Oftalmológica

- Abstract
Introducción: las infecciones del tracto urinario (ITU) afectan a distintas zonas anatómicas y se producen debido a la invasión de microorganismos tras debilitar a las defensas del organismo. Existen factores de riesgo que predisponen a una persona de sufrir esta patología, siendo el más destacable la deferencia de sexos. Una de sus principales complicaciones es la pielonefritis. Objetivos: mostrar una actualización de las intervenciones enfermeras que se deben llevar a cabo para evitar una ITU y sus complicaciones, mediante una revisión bibliográfica de la evidencia científica publicada en los últimos 10 años. Metodología: se ha realizado una revisión bibliográfica utilizando las bases de datos de Pubmed, Cinahl o Scielo. Resultados y discusión: la prevención de las infecciones urinarias en el ámbito hospitalario asociadas a la colocación de catéteres mediante unos cuidados de enfermería es fundamental. Una educación para la salud del paciente así como unas instrucciones acerca de unos hábitos de vida saludables para prevenirlas son muy importantes. Enfermería tiene un papel crucial en la detección precoz de estas infecciones y de sus complicaciones. Conclusiones: una formación adecuada del equipo de enfermería sobre signos para la identificación precoz de las ITU y de su prevención son eficaces para disminuir el impacto de las mismas., Grado en Enfermería

- Abstract
Para debatir sobre los cuidados al final de la vida debemos conocer qué es una enfermedad terminal, un síntoma refractario y que los objetivos de los tratamientos variarán dependiendo de la enfermedad. La medicina paliativa es el tratamiento ideal para los pacientes terminales, pero cuando se agotan todas las posibilidades de tratamientos paliativos sin reducir el sufrimiento se recurre a las opciones de último recurso entre las que se encuentran la Eutanasia y el Suicidio Medicamente Asistido. Se utilizaron como bases de datos PUBMED, CINAHL y SCOPUS. Para la búsqueda de textos legales y protocolos oficiales se consultaron páginas oficiales como la del Boletín Oficial del Estado (BOE), Boletín Oficial de Castilla y León (BOCYL) y la página oficial de Salud de Castilla y León (Portal de salud de Castilla y León). También se consultó la página de la Asociación Federal Derecho a Morir Dignamente y profesionales especializados en los cuidados al final de la vida y que desarrollan su trabajo en unidades de cuidados paliativos Se expone brevemente las leyes que regulan la Eutanasia alrededor del mundo y los requisitos exigidos en ellas. Se presenta la Ley Orgánica 3/2021 de 24 de marzo de 2021 de Regulación de la Eutanasia (LORE) que legalizó la eutanasia en España, se enumeran los criterios para acceder a ella y se exponen, basándonos en manuales elaborados en la Comunidad de Castilla y León, las fases en las que se divide el proceso de la eutanasia y las funciones desempeñadas por los profesionales de enfermería durante este proceso. El proceso de eutanasia se divide en 9 etapas y puede realizarse mediante dos modalidades en las que intervienen los profesionales de enfermería. Actualmente, no existen manuales que describan las funciones de los profesionales de enfermería durante la Eutanasia, sin embargo, basándonos en diferentes publicaciones científicas podemos saber que actuaciones realizan estos profesionales., Grado en Enfermería

- Abstract
Introducción. El suicidio es un grave problema de salud pública, constituyendo una de las principales causas de muerte entre la población adolescente. Abarca desde la ideación suicida hasta el acto consumado. Los factores de protección son los encargados de disminuir la probabilidad de desarrollar una conducta suicida, contrarrestando y mitigando los factores de riesgo. Su prevención requiere de la identificación de los factores de riesgo y promoción de los protectores, así como la implementación de programas de educación para la salud desde edades tempranas. Objetivo. El objetivo principal fue diseñar un programa de educación para la salud centrado en la prevención de la conducta suicida en la población adolescente. Metodología. Para la elaboración de este trabajo fin de grado se realizó una revisión bibliográfica de la literatura existente, utilizando bases de datos, páginas oficiales y guías especializadas en salud mental y suicidio, empleando palabras clave y descriptores de la salud en inglés y español. Una vez recopilada y analizada toda la información, se procedió al diseño y elaboración de la propuesta de programa. Resultados: Desarrollo del programa. El programa de educación para la salud constará de 5 sesiones, que se realizarán semanalmente los sábados por la mañana. Estará dirigido a aquellos pacientes con edades comprendidas entre los 15-24 años, que residan en Soria y presenten factores de riesgo, ausencia de factores de protección o alteraciones en las escalas de valoración del riesgo suicida. Conclusión. Un conocimiento y educación sanitaria apropiada sobre manifestaciones, factores de riesgo y protección del comportamiento suicida es fundamentales. Se requiere un enfoque multidisciplinario para promover la salud mental y prevenir el suicidio, siendo la enfermera un factor clave en la evaluación, detección y manejo temprano de estos pacientes., Grado en Enfermería

- Abstract
Introducción: el cáncer de laringe es la segunda neoplasia del tracto aéreo-digestivo superior más frecuente. La mortalidad ha disminuido, pero sigue teniendo un riesgo elevado de recurrencia y muerte. En los estadios III, IV la opción de tratamiento es la laringectomía total que consiste en extirpar toda la laringe, generando un gran impacto en su calidad de vida y causando trastornos físicos, psicológicos y sociales al paciente. Justificación: los pacientes laringectomizados requieren unos cuidados específicos y para ello es necesario contar con profesionales de la salud que posean conocimientos concretos para enseñar a realizar el autocuidado, apoyar y contribuir en la aceptación de su nuevo estado de salud. A pesar de ello, no hay suficiente documentación de los cuidados que se deben prestar ni cómo favorecer la promoción del autocuidado. Objetivos: enunciar los cuidados de enfermería al paciente adulto diagnosticado con cáncer de laringe en estadio IV tras la laringectomía total. Material y métodos: se ha realizado una búsqueda bibliográfica en las diferentes bases de datos científicas (PUBMED, SCOPUS y CINHAL), además se han consultado libros, revistas de enfermería, guías, protocolos y entidades científicas. Resultados y discusión: según la evidencia encontrada, los cuidados que debemos prestar a los pacientes laringectomizados son: cuidados de traqueostomía, aspectos nutricionales y apoyo emocional y social. Para satisfacer sus necesidades hay que enseñar al paciente la limpieza y recambio de cánula, cuidados del estoma, sistema de humidificación, aspiración de secreciones y métodos de rehabilitación de la voz. Además de potenciar su autoestima e imagen corporal. Es de vital importancia incluir al cuidador en la educación sanitaria. Conclusión: es fundamental una formación específica del profesional de enfermería para mejorar la asistencia integral y acelerar el proceso de recuperación de estos pacientes.

Hospitalization in older population leads to a decline in physical function, physical condition, and independency. However, a scarce number of studies has addressed the effect of being in good physical condition on the risk of hospitalization and polypharmacy in older people. Therefore, this study aims to examine the relationship between physical condition and other health factors, and the incidence of hospitalization and polypharmacy in Spanish older persons. For this cross-sectional study we recruited 102 institutionalized persons aged 80 years or older, who were being treated at three primary care centers. The data collected were number of hospitalizations and medications, dietary habits, nutrition status, quality of life, independence in activities of daily life, physical performance, and associated genotype data. Scoring higher in the tests Chair stand and 8-Foot Up-and-go was found associated with reduced risks of hospitalization (odds ratio [OR] = 0.45 [95% CI = 0.2-0.99]; OR 0.32 [95% CI = 0.12-0.86]) and polypharmacy (OR = 0.36 [95% CI = 0.16-0.8]; OR = 0.28 [95% CI = 0.1-0.78]). The number of medications was also lower in individuals with a greater aerobic capacity and activities of daily life independence (OR = 0.28 [95% CI = 0.1-0.78]; OR = 0.37 [95% CI = 0.16-0.82]). No associations were found with the remaining physical performance tests or other factors assessed. Our findings point to benefits of greater strength, balance, and aerobic capacity in terms of reducing the risk of hospitalization and polypharmacy.

- Abstract
Introducción: en el año 2019 en Wuhan (China) se observaron una serie de casos de neumonía con un cuadro de síntomas común los cuales fueron relacionados con un nuevo virus llamado SARS-CoV 2. Debido a la elevada morbimortalidad junto a la velocidad de transmisión y la falta de información ante el virus la OMS decido catalogar dicho brote como emergencia para la salud pública internacional. Esta nueva patología pone en riesgo la salud mental de la población, acentuándose en las personas en contacto directo ante el virus tales como los profesionales sanitarios. Justificación: existe evidencia científica de que hay una relación directa entre la COVID-19, factores psicológicos como la depresión, la ansiedad, el estrés y el insomnio, y una menor satisfacción con el trabajo y su consecuente disminución de calidad asistencial en el mismo. Metodología: estudio observacional transversal llevado a cabo con los profesionales en primera línea de defensa ante la COVID-19 pertenecientes al hospital Santa Bárbara de Soria. El nivel de depresión, ansiedad y estrés fueron evaluados mediante la versión española Depression Anxiety and Stress Scale-21. Por su parte el insomnio fue evaluado mediante la escala de insomnio de Atenas. Resultados: en relación a la muestra de estudio, el 44.2 % de los participantes han presentado depresión, 55,6% ansiedad, 61,5% estrés y 44,2%insomnio. Variables como el género, la edad, ser considerado persona de riesgo y convivir con personas de riesgo aumentaron los niveles de daño psicológico. La óptima salud mental de los profesionales sanitarios debe de ser uno de los objetivos a tener en cuenta para la correcta evolución de la pandemia COVID-19. Conclusión: los datos obtenidos en los profesionales de enfermería de Soria son superiores en cuanto a los niveles de depresión, ansiedad, estrés e insomnio en comparación con estudio a nivel nacional e internacional., Grado en Enfermería

- Abstract
Producción Científica, Candidate gene studies have analyzed the effect of specific vitamin D pathway genes on vitamin D availability; however, it is not clear whether genetic variants also affect overall bone metabolism. This study evaluated the association between genetic polymorphisms in GC, CYP2R1 and CYP24A1 and serum levels of total 25(OH)D, iPTH and other mineral metabolism biomarkers (albumin, total calcium and phosphorus) in a sample of 273 older Spanish adults. We observed a significant difference between CYP2R1 rs10741657 codominant model and total 25(OH)D levels after adjusting them by gender (p = 0.024). In addition, the two SNPs in the GC gene (rs4588 and rs2282679) were identified significantly associated with iPTH and creatinine serum levels. In the case of phosphorus, we observed an association with GC SNPs in dominant model. We found a relationship between haplotype 2 and 25(OH)D levels, haplotype 4 and iPTH serum levels and haplotype 7 and phosphorus levels. In conclusion, genetic variants in CYP2R1 and GC could be predictive of 25(OH)D and iPTH serum levels, respectively, in older Caucasian adults. The current study confirmed the role of iPTH as one of the most sensitive biomarkers of vitamin D activity in vivo., Junta de Castilla y León, Consejería de Educación - (Grant VA037G19)

Fernández Araque, Ana María and Fernández Araque, Ana María
- Abstract
Producción Científica, In recent years, antioxidant supplements have become popular to counteract the effects of oxidative stress in fibromyalgia and one of its most distressing symptoms, pain. The aim of this systematic review was to summarize the effects of antioxidant supplementation on pain levels perceived by patients diagnosed with fibromyalgia. The words used respected the medical search terms related to our objective including antioxidants, fibromyalgia, pain, and supplementation. Seventeen relevant articles were identified within Medline (PubMed), Scopus, Web of Science (WOS), the Cochrane Database of Systematic Review, and the Cochrane Central Register of Controlled Trials. This review found that antioxidant supplementation is efficient in reducing pain in nine of the studies reviewed. Studies with a duration of supplementation of at least 6 weeks showed a benefit on pain perception in 80% of the patients included in these studies. The benefits shown by vitamins and coenzyme Q10 are remarkable. Further research is needed to identify the effects of other types of antioxidants, such as extra virgin olive oil and turmeric. More homogeneous interventions in terms of antioxidant doses administered and duration would allow the effects on pain to be addressed more comprehensively.

Candidate gene studies have analyzed the effect of specific vitamin D pathway genes on vitamin D availability; however, it is not clear whether genetic variants also affect overall bone metabolism. This study evaluated the association between genetic polymorphisms in GC, CYP2R1 and CYP24A1 and serum levels of total 25(OH)D, iPTH and other mineral metabolism biomarkers (albumin, total calcium and phosphorus) in a sample of 273 older Spanish adults. We observed a significant difference between CYP2R1 rs10741657 codominant model and total 25(OH)D levels after adjusting them by gender (p = 0.024). In addition, the two SNPs in the GC gene (rs4588 and rs2282679) were identified significantly associated with iPTH and creatinine serum levels. In the case of phosphorus, we observed an association with GC SNPs in dominant model. We found a relationship between haplotype 2 and 25(OH)D levels, haplotype 4 and iPTH serum levels and haplotype 7 and phosphorus levels. In conclusion, genetic variants in CYP2R1 and GC could be predictive of 25(OH)D and iPTH serum levels, respectively, in older Caucasian adults. The current study confirmed the role of iPTH as one of the most sensitive biomarkers of vitamin D activity in vivo.

Producción Científica, Therapeutic exercise (TE) is one of the most investigated approaches for the management of FMS. Pain neurophysiology education (PNE) helps toward understanding the pain condition, leading to maladaptive pain cognitions and coping strategies in patients with chronic pain. Our study aimed to assess the effects of therapeutic exercise and pain neurophysiology education versus TE in isolation on fatigue, sleep disturbances, and physical function in the short term and at three months of follow-up in women with fibromyalgia syndrome (FMS). A single-blind randomized controlled trial was carried out. A total of 32 women with FMS referred from medical doctors and fibromyalgia association were randomized in 2 groups: PNE + TE group or TE group. Fatigue and sleep disturbances (Visual Analog Score) and physical function (Senior Fitness Test) were assessed before, after intervention, and at three months of follow-up. Significant improvements were achieved in the Timed Up and Go test (p = 0.042) and Arm Curl test (p = 0.043) after intervention and on handgrip in the non-dominant side at three months of follow-up (p = 0.036) on the PNE + TE group. No between-groups differences were found for fatigue, sleep disturbances, and the rest of test included in the Senior Fitness Test. In conclusion, these results suggest that PNE + TE appears to be more effective than TE in isolation for the improvement of physical function (Timed Up and Go test and Arm Curl test) in women with FMS in the short term.

As longevity is increasing, the 65-year-old and older population is projected to increase in the next decades, as are the consequences of age-related muscle deterioration on the quality of life. The purpose of this study was to examine the associations of the ACTN3R577X polymorphism with quality of life and muscular strength in an older Spanish population. In total, 281 older adults participated in this study. Anthropometric measurements, chronic diseases, prescribed medications, quality of life, hand grip strength, and physical activity and nutritional status data were collected. ACTN3 R577X genotyping was determined using Taqman probes. Multivariate regression analysis revealed in adjusted model that, in men, the ACTN3 R577X genotype was significantly associated with hand grip strength (HGS), regression coefficient (&beta, ) = 1.23, p = 0.008, dimension 1 of the five-dimension questionnaire EuroQoL (EQ-5D, mobility), (&beta, ) = &minus, 1.44, p = 0.006, and clinical group risk (CGR) category (&beta, 1.38, p = 0.006. In women, a marginal association between the ACTN3 R577X genotype and the CGR category was observed, with a regression coefficient of (&beta, 0.97, (p = 0.024). Our findings suggest that the ACTN3 R577X genotype may influence the decline in muscle strength and quality of life in older Spanish adult males.

Background and objective Several interventions have resulted in effectively reducing stress and anxiety in nursing students, however the efficacy of these interventions has only been investigated in the short term. This study had to objectives 1) to determine the effect of an intervention program to manage stress and anxiety in nursing students during clinical practices with two phases, phase I composed by cognitive behavioral therapy and progressive muscle relaxation and phase II or reinforcement phase with progressive muscle relaxation and 2) to determine the effect of phase I of the intervention program to manage stress and anxiety in nursing students during clinical practices. Design An experimental, analytical, longitudinal and prospective study. Methods Data were collected between April 2018 to June 2019 with 4 measurements of KEZKAK questionnaire and State-Trait Anxiety Inventory. An intervention program composed of cognitive behavioral therapy and progressive muscle relaxation was developed. The intervention program was divided in two phases, phase I and phase II or reinforcement phase. Fifty-nine nursing students from a Spanish university participated. A control group (n = 29), an intervention group one (n = 15) that received phase I and an intervention group 2 (n = 15) that received phase I and phase II or reinforcement phase were formed. Results After completing phase I, significant differences were found in the state of stress and anxiety between nursing students who received this phase and those who did not and after 3 months they continued to show differences. After phase II or reinforcement phase, the inter-groups did not present significant differences between them. The inter-group comparison of the stress and anxiety values at the end of the intervention program minus the initial values indicated that the CG presented significant differences with both intervention groups in the total of the KEZKAK and also with the IG1 in factors 3 (p = 0.030) and 4 (p = 0.027) and with the IG2 in factors 1 (p = 0.006) and 7 (p = 0.018). On the other hand, no differences were found between both intervention groups, IG1-IG2, in levels of stress and anxiety (p > 0.05) Conclusions The intervention program contributes to provide evidence on the effectiveness of cognitive behavioral therapy and progressive muscle relaxation for stress and anxiety management in nursing students during clinical practices. This study suggests that we should continue in this line of research to improve the available evidence.

Producción Científica, Hypoxia causes reduced partial pressure of oxygen in arterial blood and induces adaptations in skeletal muscle that may affect individuals’ physical performance and muscular health. These muscular changes are detectable and quantifiable by electromyography (EMG), an instrument that assesses electrical activity during active contraction at rest. EMG is a relatively simple and accessible technique for all patients, one that can show the degree of the sensory and motor functions because it provides information about the status of the peripheral nerves and muscles. The main goal of this review is to evaluate the scientific evidence of EMG as an instrument for monitoring different responses of skeletal muscles subjected to external stimuli such as hypoxia and physical activity. A structured search was conducted following the Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Review and Meta-Analyses (PRISMA) guidelines in Medline/PubMed, Scielo, Google Scholar, Web of Science, and Cochrane Library Plus. The search included articles published in the last 25 years until May 2020 and was restricted to English- and Spanish-language publications. As such, investigators identified nine articles that met the search criteria. The results determined that EMG was able to detect muscle fatigue from changes in the frequency spectrum. When a muscle was fatigued, high frequency components decreased and low frequency components increased. In other studies, EMG determined muscle activation increased during exercise by recruiting motor units and by increasing the intensity of muscle contractions. Finally, it was also possible to calculate the mean quadriceps quadratic activity used to obtain an image of muscle activation. In conclusion, EMG offers a suitable tool for monitoring the different skeletal muscle responses and has sufficient sensitivity to detect hypoxia-induced muscle changes produced by hypoxic stimuli. Moreover, EMG enhances an extension of physical examination and tests motor-system integrity.

Producción Científica, Background: We compared the effects of therapeutic exercise (TE) combined with pain neurophysiology education (PNE) to those of TE in isolation on pain intensity, general fibromyalgia impact, mechanical pain sensitivity, pain catastrophizing, psychological distress and quality of life in women with fibromyalgia syndrome (FMS). Methods: A feasibility study with a 3 month follow-up was designed. Thirty-two patients with FMS were randomly assigned to PNE + TE group (n = 16) or to TE group (n = 16). Both groups received 30 sessions of TE (3 per week), and the PNE + TE group received eight face-to-face educational sessions. The measuring instruments used were the visual analogue scale, a standard pressure algometer, the Revised Fibromyalgia Impact Questionnaire, the Pain Catastrophizing Scale, the Hospital Anxiety and Depression Scale and the Health Assessment Questionnaire. Results: The PNE + TE group showed a statistically significant decrease on pain intensity compared to TE group at short term (p = 0.015). No between-groups differences were found for mechanical pain sensitivity, general fibromyalgia impact, pain catastrophizing, psychological distress or quality of life (p > 0.05). Conclusions: The combination of PNE and TE was more effective than TE for reducing pain intensity in the short-term. No differences were found for psychological distress, pain catastrophizing and quality of life after the intervention or at 3 months of follow-up.

Producción Científica, The aim of this review was to demonstrate the presence of categories and subcategories of Mishel’s model in the experiences of patients with fibromyalgia by reviewing qualitative studies. Uncertainty is defined as the inability to determine the meaning of disease-related events. A scoping review of qualitative studies was carried out. Twenty articles were included, with sample sizes ranging from 3 to 58 patients. Articles from different countries and continents were included. Three categories of the model and eight subcategories could be shown to be present in the experiences of fibromyalgia patients through the scoping review. The first category, concerning antecedents of uncertainty in patients with fibromyalgia, is constituted by the difficulty in coping with symptoms, uncertainty about the diagnosis and uncertainty about the complexity of the treatment. The second concerns the cognitive process of anxiety, stress, emotional disorder and social stigma. The third category refers to coping with the disease, through the management of social and family support and the relationship with health care professionals.

- Abstract
Introducción: La fibromialgia es una enfermedad que se caracteriza por un estado doloroso crónico y generalizado, localizado en el aparato locomotor, y presenta hipersensibilidad en múltiples puntos predefinidos. The American College of Rheumatology (ACR) estableció unos criterios clasificatorios para diferenciarla de otros síndromes con sintomatología parecida. La fibromialgia produce con frecuencia una serie de consecuencias en la vida de los pacientes, las personas de su entorno y el medio en el que viven. Entre las principales consecuencias encontramos el dolor y el impacto en la calidad de vida del paciente. El equipo de enfermería constituye un eslabón fundamental en la atención y cuidados de estos pacientes, puesto que interviene en el proceso de satisfacción de necesidades interferidas y promueve la adaptación y afrontamiento. Objetivo: Revisar si los programas educacionales en pacientes con fibromialgia son efectivos para reducir el dolor y aumentar la calidad de vida, medido a través de instrumentos que evalúan el impacto de la fibromialgia en estos pacientes. Metodología: Se realizó una búsqueda sistemática en las bases de datos Pubmed Medline, Scopus, Cuiden Plus y Scielo combinando las palabras clave mediante los operadores boleanos “AND” y “OR” para crear fórmulas de búsqueda. Se encontraron un total de 353 artículos de los cuales se incluyeron 7 en esta revisión. Resultados: Se han incluido 7 estudios en esta revisión sistemática, los cuales han pasado el programa de calidad metodológica. Todos los estudios escogidos incluían educación al paciente en su intervención, uno de ellos únicamente con educación por escrito y otros dos, combinando la educación con otras intervenciones. En 6 de los 7 ensayos se muestran efectos positivos en el dolor; y en 5 ensayos se muestran beneficios en la calidad de vida del paciente que padece la enfermedad. Conclusiones: La educación sobre neurociencia del dolor ha resultado eficaz para disminuir el dolor y mejorar la c, Grado en Enfermería

FC ,Enfermería ,Trabajo en equipo ,Aprendizaje activo ,Innovación docente - Abstract
En el modelo flipped classroom (FC) los estudiantes trabajan de forma autónoma tareas previamente preparadas por el profesorado (Harrington et als, 2015 y Schwartz, 2014), metodología que permite mejorar su aprendizaje mediante el intercambio de roles profesor-alumno. Para las prácticas en laboratorio no hay estudios que muestren la satisfacción y beneficios de esta metodología respecto al método tradicional. Nuestro objetivo fue medir la satisfacción, motivación y aprendizaje del estudiante en las prácticas de laboratorio de farmacología utilizando FC. La muestra estuvo integrada por 58 individuos del Grado en Enfermería. Como herramientas utilizamos un esquema de preparación previa colgado en Moodle con enlace a Clinical Skills, con protocolos y materiales actualizados. El estudiante elaboró su propio video con las técnicas aprendidas. Un cuestionario (Canales & Hernández, 2019 y Landa & Ramirez, 2017), nos permitió medir su grado de satisfacción con la metodología. Los resultados concluyen la satisfacción del colectivo con FC como elemento de mejora de su conocimiento y por su contribución al fomento de la participación activa en el proceso de enseñanza-aprendizaje, así como de la interacción intragrupo, lo que contribuye al cambio de rol del estudiante hacia una actitud más proactiva. Como conclusión entendemos que en ciencias de la salud es prioritario adaptarse a las tecnologías virtuales y mejorar las habilidades del aprendizaje también en las prácticas de laboratorio.

- Abstract
INTRODUCCIÓN: el glaucoma es una enfermedad ocular crónica, caracterizada por la lesión del nervio óptico lo que deriva en una pérdida del campo visual pudiendo llegar a causar una ceguera irreversible. El desarrollo del glaucoma está estrechamente relacionado con la presión intraocular (PIO). Podemos encontrar distintos tipos de glaucoma así como distintos tipos de tratamiento, siendo el tratamiento tópico el más utilizado. La adherencia terapéutica de los pacientes a este tratamiento es un problema importante. OBJETIVO: mostrar los factores que influyen en la adherencia terapéutica en los pacientes glaucomatosos y las intervenciones que la mejoran. RESULTADOS: la importancia de una buena adherencia al tratamiento del glaucoma es muy importante ya que se ha demostrado que el tratamiento es muy efectivo a la hora de controlar la progresión de la enfermedad. Se han identificado varios factores que influyen en los pacientes glaucomatosos a la hora de desarrollar una adherencia terapéutica satisfactoria; así como los principales factores de riesgo que predisponen a padecer glaucoma. Dada la importancia de la adherencia al tratamiento en estos pacientes se desarrollan una serie de intervenciones del personal de enfermería para conseguir que estos pacientes cumplan de la manera correcta con las prescripciones médicas. CONCLUSIONES: conseguir una mejor adherencia al tratamiento del glaucoma mejoraría significativamente el número de casos de esta enfermedad que desembocan en ceguera; además de mejorar la calidad de vida de estos pacientes al conseguir detener el deterioro del campo visual. La actuación del personal sanitario, en especial de enfermería, sobre los factores que condicionan la adherencia se demuestra imprescindible para poder controlar este problema, Grado en Enfermería

- Abstract
Producción Científica, The aim of this review was to demonstrate the presence of categories and subcategories of Mishel’s model in the experiences of patients with fibromyalgia by reviewing qualitative studies. Uncertainty is defined as the inability to determine the meaning of disease-related events. A scoping review of qualitative studies was carried out. Twenty articles were included, with sample sizes ranging from 3 to 58 patients. Articles from different countries and continents were included. Three categories of the model and eight subcategories could be shown to be present in the experiences of fibromyalgia patients through the scoping review. The first category, concerning antecedents of uncertainty in patients with fibromyalgia, is constituted by the difficulty in coping with symptoms, uncertainty about the diagnosis and uncertainty about the complexity of the treatment. The second concerns the cognitive process of anxiety, stress, emotional disorder and social stigma. The third category refers to coping with the disease, through the management of social and family support and the relationship with health care professionals.
