Treatment of bipolar depression: results from a comprehensive network meta-analysis and updated systematic review
(Elsevier B.V., 2026-07-01) Yalin, Nefize; Yildiz, Aysegul; Siafis, Spyridon; Vieta i Pascual, Eduard, 1963-; Leucht, Stefan
Depressive episodes present a treatment challenge in bipolar disorder (BD), and an urgent need exists for novel treatment options. This review sought to revisit the results from a recent network meta-analysis (NMA) that examined treatment options for bipolar depression and to update those findings with a complementary systematic review (PROSPERO-ID: CRD42020171726). The NMA was based on the qualitative synthesis of 145 studies and the quantitative analysis of 101 studies investigating acute depression in adults with bipolar depression from inception to April 2023. A complementary systematic review was conducted using MEDLINE, OVID, EMBASE, PsychINFO, CINAHL, LILACS, Cochrane, Web of Science Core Collaboration, and Google Scholar databases from April 2023 to November 2024 to identify the most recent randomized controlled trials on the treatment of bipolar depression. Studies identified via systematic review were subjected to narrative synthesis and quality assessment was completed using revised Cochrane risk of bias tool. The original NMA showed that olanzapine plus fluoxetine, quetiapine, olanzapine, lurasidone, lumateperone, cariprazine, and lamotrigine were more efficacious than placebo in reducing depressive symptoms in BD with good confidence. Several other drugs might also be efficacious, but confidence in the evidence was very low to low. The complementary systematic review identified 24 clinical trials, seven of which had published results suitable for meta-analysis; the remaining 17 studies were either ongoing or completed with no available results. Collectively, the NMA and systematic review findings can inform evidence-based care and the development of international treatment guidelines for bipolar depression.
The effect of daily fluctuation of abusive supervision over employees positive and negative emotions, and recovery experience
(Universidad Complutense de Madrid, 2022-01-05) Gallegos Castro, Ivonne; Berger, Rita, 1959-; Guàrdia-Olmos, Joan, 1958-; Escartín Solanelles, Jordi
Abusive supervision impacts employees' emotions negatively and creates feelings of shame and fear. But it remains unclear how daily employees' positive and negative emotions are affected and if they can recover. Applying the affective event theory and job demands-resources model we hypothesized that daily abusive supervision influences employees' positive and negative emotions fluctuation over the day, recovery after work, and employee emotions the next morning. Two daily surveys were answered by 52 Mexican employees for ten days providing 347 registers in the morning and 255 in the afternoon. Hierarchical linear modeling shows alteration of positive and negative emotions in the afternoon and next day, and a positive effect over recovery in relaxation, mastery and control restoring positive emotions. However, negative emotions cannot be recovered for the following day. Additionally, we found effects of predictive variables, as the days of the week go by, positive emotions in the afternoon and negative emotions in the morning decrease. Gender shows for men a more negative effect on positive emotions in the afternoon, next morning and on mastery-recovery. Marital status revealed effect over married individuals incrementing the four recovery dimensions, increasing positive emotions, and reducing negative emotions in the afternoon and next morning. Tenure has an effect over abusive supervision, the longer employees in the company, more likely they suffer abusive supervision. We show how employees restore positive emotions after daily recovery and that negative emotions cannot be recovered for the following day; revealing how abusive managers cause emotional damage to employees every day.
The 'Indian Question' in the Bolivian Amazon: School Centers of Casarabe and Moré
(Cambridge University Press (CUP), 2022-01-25) Guiteras Mombiola, Anna
Education was an essential ingredient of the state strategy to address the so-called 'Indian question' in the Americas throughout the first half of the twentieth century. In the 1930s, Bolivian intellectuals promoted a new educational policy inspired by indigenismo, a trend of thought that sought to solve the problems faced by indigenous people concerning welfare, hygiene, agricultural techniques, and land issues; it also sought, to some extent, to teach them to value their own culture. The educational experience, originally conducted in the village of Warisata and then spread across the Andes, has merited special attention from historiography. However, very little is known about Warisata's replication in the country's lowlands. This paper explores the originality, scope, and limitations of the first project of socialization of 'non-subjected' societies of the Amazon Basin. That project was inspired by the postulates of the innovative Warisateño model, which aimed to give birth to a 'new Indian' who would contribute actively and voluntarily to the progress of the nation. The categories adopted in that project, and the practices carried out, were inscribed in the positivists' thought, based on their view of the alleged 'wild nature' and 'savagery' of the groups with whom educators would interact. This study aims to contribute to the debate on the 'Indian question' in the Americas by highlighting the contradictions faced by intellectuals when designing projects for the 'integration' of otherness into the nation.
Repensando el espacio artístico y narrativo. La realidad virtual (RV) como alternativa expositiva y creativa en tiempos de pandemia
(Ediciones Egregius, 2021) Urroz Osés, Ana; Candil Gil-Ortega, Daniel
La pandemia provocada por el COVID-19 nos ha colocado a todos en una situación de distancia social que modifica hábitos establecidos tanto a nivel laboral, como social. Para el sector del arte esto ha supuesto una disrupción en las prácticas tradicionales de exhibición y disfrute de la experiencia artística como espectadores. Museos, galerías y toda forma de salas de exposición han visto cómo las instituciones gubernamentales correspondientes han ido decretando cierres más o menos contundentes: ahora parciales, ahora totales, ahora por unos días, etc. Los artistas observan desolados un nuevo escenario en el que su discurso, su planteamiento de participación del público en su obra ha de transitar hacia nuevos territorios. Así, plantearemos una aproximación a las posibilidades narrativas de la RV a partir de su propia historia. Revisitar experiencias previas en las que artistas e instituciones han propuestos formas de experiencia diversas que han modificado y definido nuevas narrativas nos permitirá ofrecer otros marcos de actuación, o cuando menos de reflexión, para la contemplación y vivencia de la obra de arte que van más allá de la exposición en línea.
Steel’s Programme: Evidential Framework, the Core and Ultimate-L
(Association for Symbolic Logic., 2023) Bagaria, Joan; Ternullo, Claudio
We address Steel’s Programme to identify a ‘preferred’ universe of set theory and the best axioms extending ZFC by using his multiverse axioms MV and the ‘core hypothesis’. In the first part, we examine the evidential framework for MV, in particular the use of large cardinals and of ‘worlds’ obtained through forcing to ‘represent’ alternative extensions of ZFC. In the second part, we address the existence and the possible features of the core of MVT (where T is ZFC+Large Cardinals). In the last part, we discuss the hypothesis that the core is Ultimate-L, and examine whether and how, based on this fact, the Core Universist can justify V=Ultimate-L as the best (and ultimate) extension of ZFC. To this end, we take into account several strategies, and assess their prospects in the light of MV’s evidential framework.
