Objecte de conferènciaLa Hospitalidad como valor en la Universidad. Significado y construcción de los estudiantes de enfermería
(Ludomedia, 2016) Martínez Rodríguez, Laura; Ramió Jofré, Anna; Guilera Roche, Amèlia; Morera Pomarede, María José; Godall Castell, Mar; Venceslao, Marta
[spa] Introducción: Para conocer en profundidad los cambios que se generaban en el valor de la hospitalidad, considerado importante para la profesión enfermera. Presentamos los resultados de la segunda fase. Objetivo: Conocer en profundidad los cambios de significado que se producen en el valor de la Hospitalidad y analizar qué elementos son significativos se vinculan. Métodos: Metodología cualitativa fenomenológica, ámbito del Grado de Enfermería. Muestreo teórico intencional de 15 alumnos. Se realizaron entrevistas semi- estructuradas de pregunta abierta y entrevistas a expertos. El análisis según Teoría Fundamentada. Se consideraron los criterios de rigor pertinentes y los criterios éticos. Resultados: Emergieron cinco categorías: 1) aumento el vocabulario y relación con otros valores, 2) reproducción, 3) incorporación como un valor, 4) crítica y referentes, 5) identidad. Conclusiones: Se generó una secuencia del proceso de transmisión de la hospitalidad como valor profesional.
ArticlePrevalence of Mandibular Third Molar Impaction, Associated Pathologies, and Correlation With Temporomandibular Joint Morphology in a Hospital-Based Spanish Cohort: A Panoramic Radiography Study

Background
Mandibular third molar is the most frequent impacted tooth in the oral cavity. Its presence can be associated with complications including the temporomandibular joint (TMJ) symptoms. Therefore, the present study aimed to assess the prevalence of impacted mandibular third molar (IMTM), associated pathologies, and its correlation with TMJ morphology in a hospital-based Spanish cohort.
Methods
We retrospectively reviewed existing orthopantomographs (OPGs) records, panoramic images of patients aged ≥18 with at least one IMTM who attended the Dental Hospital of the University of Barcelona (HOUB) between September 2021 and May 2023. The OPGs were assessed and interpreted by an experienced oral and maxillofacial radiologist for the type of impaction according to Winter’s classification system, associated pathologies, and shape of mandibular condyle.
Results
Out of 80 OPGs, 60% (95% confidence interval [CI]: 48.4%−70.7%) were females, and the majority 53.8% (95% CI: 42.3–64.9) were between 18 and 28 years of age. The prevalence rate of IMTM was 86.88%, with the left side commonly involved. On both sides, oval-shaped condyle and vertical IMTM were the most common, with dental caries and bone loss being the frequently observed pathologies. Sclerotic changes were depicted in 15% (95% CI: 8.2%−24.7%) of the cases on both sides of TMJ. On the other hand, no statistically significant associations were noticed between the pathologies and condyle shape (p > 0.05, Cramér’s V < 0.25). Vertical and mesioangular, followed by horizontally IMTMs, were the most prevalent types of impactions, indicating nonsignificant association with condylar shape (p > 0.05, Cramér’s V = 0.21–0.23).
Conclusion
In this hospital-based cohort, vertical IMTM and oval condylar morphology were predominant; however, condylar shape did not correlate with impaction type on panoramic radiographs. The findings are preliminary and require validation in sufficiently powered cone beam computed tomography (CBCT)-based studies with clinical TMJ assessment.

Des que Michael Faraday va demostrar la rotació electromagnètica el 1821, els motors elèctrics s’han convertit en el nucli de la societat industrial moderna. Aproximadament un segle després, Luigi Russolo va imaginar l’expansió de la música cap a l’àmbit del soroll mitjançant mitjans mecànics en el seu manifest de 1913, L’art dels sorolls.
Synthesized Cycles, Motorized Sounds presenta una instal·lació centrada en un “motor synthesizer”, en la qual motors de corrent continu (DC) són impulsats per un sintetitzador analògic. Els senyals d’àudio i el voltatge de control (CV) fan girar els motors, transformant senyals elèctrics en moviment mecànic visible. A través de la interacció elèctrica i mecànica del sistema, el so motoritzat sorgeix del consum cíclic d’electricitat.
ArticleType 2 and Non-type 2 Inflammation in the Upper Airways: Cellular and Molecular Alterations in Olfactory Neuroepithelium Cell Populations
(Springer Science + Business Media, 2024-04-01) Marin, Concepció; Alobid, Isam; López Chacón, Mauricio; Rodriguez-Van Strahlen, Camilo; Mullol i Miret, Joaquim
Purpose of review: Neurogenesis occurring in the olfactory epithelium is critical to continuously replace olfactory neurons to maintain olfactory function, but is impaired during chronic type 2 and non-type 2 inflammation of the upper airways. In this review, we describe the neurobiology of olfaction and the olfactory alterations in chronic rhinosinusitis with nasal polyps (type 2 inflammation) and post-viral acute rhinosinusitis (non-type 2 inflammation), highlighting the role of immune response attenuating olfactory neurogenesis as a possibly mechanism for the loss of smell in these diseases.
Recent findings: Several studies have provided relevant insights into the role of basal stem cells as direct participants in the progression of chronic inflammation identifying a functional switch away from a neuro-regenerative phenotype to one contributing to immune defense, a process that induces a deficient replacement of olfactory neurons. The interaction between olfactory stem cells and immune system might critically underlie ongoing loss of smell in type 2 and non-type 2 inflammatory upper airway diseases. In this review, we describe the neurobiology of olfaction and the olfactory alterations in type 2 and non-type 2 inflammatory upper airway diseases, highlighting the role of immune response attenuating olfactory neurogenesis, as a possibly mechanism for the lack of loss of smell recovery.
