Palliative care in the Eastern Mediterranean: comparative analysis using specific indicators.

Background: Monitoring the development of palliative care (PC) illustrates the capacity of health systems to respond to the needs of people experiencing serious health-related suffering.

Aim: To analyse comparatively the situation of PC in the countries of the Easter Mediterranean region using context-specific indicators.

Method: An online questionnaire with 15 context-specific PC indicators investigating service provision, use of medicines, policy, education, and vitality was designed.

Matched and Fully Private? A New Self-Generated Identification Code for School-Based Cohort Studies to Increase Perceived Anonymity.

Anonymous questionnaires are frequently used in research with adolescents in order to obtain sincere answers about sensitive topics. Most longitudinal studies include self-generated identification codes (SGICs) to match information. Typical elements include a combination of letters and digits from personal data.

Adolescents' Alcohol Use: Does the Type of Leisure Activity Matter? A Cross-National Study.

Unlabelled: The main objective of this study was to analyze the relationship between structured, unstructured, and family leisure activities on the frequency of adolescent alcohol intake across three different countries (Spain, Peru, and The Netherlands). The self-control of adolescents was also investigated as a moderator in the relationship between leisure activities and alcohol consumption.

Methodology: This research involved 4608 adolescents aged between 12 and 17 from three countries (Spain, Peru, and The Netherlands).

Palliative Care Coverage across European National Health Systems: Proposal of a Synthetic Indicator.

Background: The coverage of palliative care (PC) may be understood as a country's capacity to offer prevention and relief from serious health-related suffering in relation to an existing need. The aim of this study is to estimate European countries´ coverage capacities.

Method: Secondary analysis of three indicators, including the number of specialized services (SSPC), integration capacity scores (ICS) and the PC needs.

The conditions for women's autonomy: Statistical data for Valle del Cauca.

In this article, we describe the data set on theconditions for women's autonomy in the municipalities of Cali, Buenaventura, Yumbo, and Jamundí (Colombia). The database was developed by the Observatoriopara la Equidad de las Mujeres (OEM), an entity resulting from an alliancebetween Universidad Icesi and Fundación WWB Colombia. The OEM's purpose is toconstruct measurements that make it possible to account for women's autonomy,based on three main dimensions: physical autonomy (associated with aspects ofpersonal and family life), economic and financial autonomy (the type of work,income, decision-making with respect to these aspects, entrepreneurship orbusiness units, among others), and leadership and public participation(electoral practices, type of participation, relation to institutions, etc.

Association of Tagging Single Nucleotide Polymorphisms With Breast Cancer in a Sample of Colombian Population: A Case Control Study.

Purpose: Ubiquitin ligase genes can act as oncogenes or tumor suppressor genes. They play a role in various diseases, including development and progression of breast cancer; the objective of this study was to evaluate the association of common variants in the () gene with breast cancer risk in a sample of Colombian population.

Methods: We carried out a case-control study to investigate associations of variants in with breast cancer in women from Colombia.

Thermogenic capacity of human periaortic adipose tissue is transformed by body weight.

The anatomical location of adipose tissue might have direct implications for its functionality and risk of cardiovascular disease. Adipose tissue surrounding blood vessels may be thermogenically more active in specific areas of the body, releasing substances that regulate vascular metabolism. In humans, the phenotypic characteristics of adipose tissue surrounding the aorta and the cardiovascular disease risk that it might entail remain largely unknown.

[Comparison of two methodologies used for determining metabolic syndrome in adult population].

Introduction: Metabolic syndrome is characterized by the simultaneous or sequential appearance of various metabolic and inflammatory changes at molecular, cellular or hemodynamic level associated with the presence of insulin resistance and dominant visceral adiposity. Different expert groups, including the International Diabetes Federation and the National Cholesterol Education Program, have tried to develop criteria for its diagnosis.

Objective: To establish diagnostic criteria concordance levels for metabolic syndrome.
