Adverse events associated with antimicrobial compounds in a general hospital in Chile.

Background: Antimicrobial compounds are associated with a wide range of adverse events (AE) and some of them can be potentially preventable.

Aim: To characterize AE associated with antimicrobial compounds.

Patients And Methods: Retrospective analysis of AEs reported to the National Pharmacological Surveillance System from 2014 to 2017 in a regional hospital.

Association between postural patterns of spastic upper extremity and functional independence after TBI and stroke.

Background: Spastic hypertonia of the upper limb after stroke or traumatic brain injuries (TBI) is a prevalent clinical sign causing abnormal postures and movement patterns due to hyperexcitability of the upper motor neurons and rheological alterations in the affected muscles. These alterations limit the use of the upper limb, restricting its functional activities and affecting the individual's quality of life and social participation.

Objective: To determine the association between spastic patterns of the upper limb, wrist, fingers and thumb, and independence in everyday activities after a stroke or TBI.

Effects of modified constraint-induced movement therapy in the recovery of upper extremity function affected by a stroke: a single-blind randomized parallel trial-comparing group versus individual intervention.

An extensive corpus of literature supports the positive impact of constraint-induced movement therapy (CIMT) on neuroplasticity and the recovery of function. However, its clinical applicability is limited by the time of intervention and individual modality. We propose to assess the efficacy of modified CIMT protocols through a group therapy intervention.

[A new model of sportive cooperation and its evaluation by means a questionnaire].

We present in this paper the sportive cooperation as a theoretical framework for the teams' dynamics, and as an alternative to others theories, specially the sportive cohesion. This theory has a double basis: 1) The rational and utilitarist decision taking upon the personal cooperation or not, with the team's goal, based on the internal teammates interaction, and the environmental stimuli; and 2) A personal, and more stable, disposition to cooperate, despite the possibility of obtain any counterparts for this behavior. From this framework, we have build--in a three phase process--a questionnaire addressed to evaluate the sportive cooperation.
