IntroducciÓn: n promoción de la salud se ha detectado en los últimos años un incremento de investigaciones con enfoques teóricos basados en activos de salud. Pese a los estudios identificados, no se dispone de suficiente evidencia sobre los efectos que diferentes tipos de activos pueden tener en la calidad de vida y en la morbimortalidad de la población.
Objetivo: analizar la relación entre los activos de salud disponibles con indicadores de morbilidad, mortalidad y calidad de vida de la población asturiana en el año 2018.

Article Synopsis
- Spain declared a state of alarm on March 14, 2020, due to COVID-19, implementing confinement measures and later launching a phased plan to lift them, beginning May 4, 2020.
- The transition involved a careful strategy for monitoring and controlling the virus, with decision-making shared between the national government and regional authorities, using specific indicators to assess the situation.
- By June 21, 2020, significant improvements were made, including a decrease in infection rates, increased testing capacity, and better contact tracing, highlighting the importance of data and communication in managing the public health response.
Objectives: To investigate the rectal carriage of multidrug-resistant Enterobacteriaceae (colistin-resistant, extended-spectrum β-lactamase (ESBL) -producers and/or carbapenemase-producers) among health-care workers (HCWs) from six Spanish hospitals.
Methods: Rectal swabs from 258 HCWs, employed in intensive care units, haematology wards and clinical microbiology laboratories from six hospitals in northern Spain were studied. They were cultured in selective media for Gram-negative resistant bacteria.
