Background: From a participative educational position view, enhancement of the teaching is subjected to the fact that mentors had though about conditions and circumstances that determine their performance and to get a solid position that guides them into overcoming their day-to-day trouble burden. Our objective was to measure effects of a participative educational strategy that motivates critical evaluation in the development of a position on education; seven groups of teachers were compared.
Methods: Through a longitudinal comparative intervention design, 71 students (mentors) coming from seven educational interventions, were studied, during a period from 2002 to 2005.
Results: Differences between previous and posterior to educational process measuring were statistically significant in favor of the development of a position in all the groups (Wilcoxon p < 0.01); 68 out of 71 mentors developed a position on education.
Conclusions: A participative educational strategy consolidated a personal position, resulting from the reflexive activity of the mentor.

Objective: This study investigates the relationship between the albumin-to-creatinine ratio and diabetic retinopathy (DR) in US adults using NHANES data from 2009 to 2016. This study assesses the predictive efficacy of the urinary serum albumin-to-creatinine ratio (UACR/SACR Ratio) against traditional biomarkers such as the serum albumin-to-creatinine ratio (SACR) and urinary albumin-to-creatinine ratio (UACR) for evaluating DR risk. Additionally, the study explores the potential of these biomarkers, both individually and in combination with HbA1c, for early detection and risk stratification of DR.

Lysosomal storage disorders (LSDs) are rare inherited metabolic disorders characterized by defects in the function of specific enzymes responsible for breaking down substrates within cellular organelles (lysosomes) essential for the processing of macromolecules. Undigested substrate accumulates within lysosomes, leading to cellular dysfunction, tissue damage, and clinical manifestations. Clinical features vary depending on the degree and type of enzyme deficiency, the type and extent of substrate accumulated, and the tissues affected.
