Abstract

Las infecciones nosocomiales en nuestro país son un problema de salud pública ya que eleva la tasa de mortalidad además de significar mayor gasto para el Estado debido al mayor uso de medicamentos, se alarga la estancia hospitalaria, lo que duplica o incluso triplica el gasto que representa la patología por la cual el paciente es hospitalizado. Se llama infección nosocomial a aquella que se produce dentro del ambiente hospitalario después de 48 horas de haber sido ingresado por cualquier tipo de patología. Este estudio se realizó con la revisión de las historias clínicas de los pacientes que fueron hospitalizados en el área de pediatría en el período 2019-2020, ya que con la información obtenida de las mismas se podrá evidenciar el porcentaje de infecciones nosocomiales presentadas y además es importante el tiempo de estancia hospitalaria debido a que para que una infección sea catalogada como nosocomial el paciente debe ser ingresado por más de 48 horas. Además se sabe que todo el personal de salud también se sometía con rigor a todas las medidas de bioseguridad por miedo a contagiarse de COVID 19 o de llevarlo a sus casas, además que el uso correcto de las prendas de protección era supervisado en la unidad hospitalaria y era sancionado en caso de no ser cumplidas , así mismo se implementó un protocolo para el ingreso de los pacientes a la unidad , por lo cual dicho cuidado por parte del personal de salud y de los pacientes se refleja en las historias clínicas donde se espera encontrar una disminución importante de la aparición de infecciones nosocomiales. En relación a la presencia de infecciones nosocomiales de pacientes pediátricos en los años estudiados, encontramos que en el año 2019 (prepandemia) un 55% (55/100) de los pacientes fueron afectados por infecciones nosocomiales, mientras que un 45% (45/100) no fue afectado por esta patología; mientras que en el año 2020 (pandemia) un 20% (20/100) de los pacientes fueron afectados por infecciones nosocomiales, mientras que un 80% (80/100) no fue afectado por esta patología. En este estudio se concluye que las infecciones nosocomiales son una complicación de la estancia hospitalaria prevenible mediante el correcto uso de las medidas de bioseguridad y estas son el lavado de manos constante, uso de alcohol tanto en gel como en su presentación liquida y el uso de la bata quirúrgica y mascarilla.

Influence of E-learning training on the acquisition of competences in basketball coaches in Cantabria

The main aim of this study was to analyse the influence of e-learning training on the acquisition of competences in basketball coaches in Cantabria. The current landscape of basketball coach training shows an increasing demand for innovative training models and emerging pedagogies, including e-learning-based methodologies. The study sample consisted of fifty students from these courses, all above 16 years of age (36 males, 14 females). Among them, 16% resided outside the autonomous community of Cantabria, 10% resided more than 50 km from the city of Santander, 36% between 10 and 50 km, 14% less than 10 km, and 24% resided within Santander city. Data were collected through a Google Forms survey distributed by the Cantabrian Basketball Federation to training course students. Participation was voluntary and anonymous. The survey, consisting of 56 questions, was validated by two sports and health doctors and two senior basketball coaches. The collected data were processed and analysed using Microsoft® Excel version 16.74, and the results were expressed in percentages. The analysis revealed that 24.60% of the students trained through the e-learning methodology considered themselves fully qualified as basketball coaches, contrasting with 10.98% of those trained via traditional face-to-face methodology. The results of the study provide insights into important characteristics that can be adjusted and improved within the investigated educational process. Moreover, the study concludes that e-learning training effectively qualifies basketball coaches in Cantabria.

Carotenoids Intake and Cardiovascular Prevention: A Systematic Review

Background: Cardiovascular diseases (CVDs) encompass a variety of conditions that affect the heart and blood vessels. Carotenoids, a group of fat-soluble organic pigments synthesized by plants, fungi, algae, and some bacteria, may have a beneficial effect in reducing cardiovascular disease (CVD) risk. This study aims to examine and synthesize current research on the relationship between carotenoids and CVDs. Methods: A systematic review was conducted using MEDLINE and the Cochrane Library to identify relevant studies on the efficacy of carotenoid supplementation for CVD prevention. Interventional analytical studies (randomized and non-randomized clinical trials) published in English from January 2011 to February 2024 were included. Results: A total of 38 studies were included in the qualitative analysis. Of these, 17 epidemiological studies assessed the relationship between carotenoids and CVDs, 9 examined the effect of carotenoid supplementation, and 12 evaluated dietary interventions. Conclusions: Elevated serum carotenoid levels are associated with reduced CVD risk factors and inflammatory markers. Increasing the consumption of carotenoid-rich foods appears to be more effective than supplementation, though the specific effects of individual carotenoids on CVD risk remain uncertain.

StackIL10: A stacking ensemble model for the improved prediction of IL-10 inducing peptides

Interleukin-10, a highly effective cytokine recognized for its anti-inflammatory properties, plays a critical role in the immune system. In addition to its well-documented capacity to mitigate inflammation, IL-10 can unexpectedly demonstrate pro-inflammatory characteristics under specific circumstances. The presence of both aspects emphasizes the vital need to identify the IL-10-induced peptide. To mitigate the drawbacks of manual identification, which include its high cost, this study introduces StackIL10, an ensemble learning model based on stacking, to identify IL-10-inducing peptides in a precise and efficient manner. Ten Amino-acid-composition-based Feature Extraction approaches are considered. The StackIL10, stacking ensemble, the model with five optimized Machine Learning Algorithm (specifically LGBM, RF, SVM, Decision Tree, KNN) as the base learners and a Logistic Regression as the meta learner was constructed, and the identification rate reached 91.7%, MCC of 0.833 with 0.9078 Specificity. Experiments were conducted to examine the impact of various enhancement techniques on the correctness of IL-10 Prediction. These experiments included comparisons between single models and various combinations of stacking-based ensemble models. It was demonstrated that the model proposed in this study was more effective than singular models and produced satisfactory results, thereby improving the identification of peptides that induce IL-10.

Roman urdu hate speech detection using hybrid machine learning models and hyperparameter optimization

With the rapid increase of users over social media, cyberbullying, and hate speech problems have arisen over the past years. Automatic hate speech detection (HSD) from text is an emerging research problem in natural language processing (NLP). Researchers developed various approaches to solve the automatic hate speech detection problem using different corpora in various languages, however, research on the Urdu language is rather scarce. This study aims to address the HSD task on Twitter using Roman Urdu text. The contribution of this research is the development of a hybrid model for Roman Urdu HSD, which has not been previously explored. The novel hybrid model integrates deep learning (DL) and transformer models for automatic feature extraction, combined with machine learning algorithms (MLAs) for classification. To further enhance model performance, we employ several hyperparameter optimization (HPO) techniques, including Grid Search (GS), Randomized Search (RS), and Bayesian Optimization with Gaussian Processes (BOGP). Evaluation is carried out on two publicly available benchmarks Roman Urdu corpora comprising HS-RU-20 corpus and RUHSOLD hate speech corpus. Results demonstrate that the Multilingual BERT (MBERT) feature learner, paired with a Support Vector Machine (SVM) classifier and optimized using RS, achieves state-of-the-art performance. On the HS-RU-20 corpus, this model attained an accuracy of 0.93 and an F1 score of 0.95 for the Neutral-Hostile classification task, and an accuracy of 0.89 with an F1 score of 0.88 for the Hate Speech-Offensive task. On the RUHSOLD corpus, the same model achieved an accuracy of 0.95 and an F1 score of 0.94 for the Coarse-grained task, alongside an accuracy of 0.87 and an F1 score of 0.84 for the Fine-grained task. These results demonstrate the effectiveness of our hybrid approach for Roman Urdu hate speech detection.

Performance of the 4C and SEIMC scoring systems in predicting mortality from onset to current COVID-19 pandemic in emergency departments

The evolution of the COVID-19 pandemic has been associated with variations in clinical presentation and severity. Similarly, prediction scores may suffer changes in their diagnostic accuracy. The aim of this study was to test the 30-day mortality predictive validity of the 4C and SEIMC scores during the sixth wave of the pandemic and to compare them with those of validation studies. This was a longitudinal retrospective observational study. COVID-19 patients who were admitted to the Emergency Department of a Spanish hospital from December 15, 2021, to January 31, 2022, were selected. A side-by-side comparison with the pivotal validation studies was subsequently performed. The main measures were 30-day mortality and the 4C and SEIMC scores. A total of 27,614 patients were considered in the study, including 22,361 from the 4C, 4,627 from the SEIMC and 626 from our hospital. The 30-day mortality rate was significantly lower than that reported in the validation studies. The AUCs were 0.931 (95% CI: 0.90–0.95) for 4C and 0.903 (95% CI: 086–0.93) for SEIMC, which were significantly greater than those obtained in the first wave. Despite the changes that have occurred during the coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) pandemic, with a reduction in lethality, scorecard systems are currently still useful tools for detecting patients with poor disease risk, with better prognostic capacity.
