    Abstract Resumen: La pandemia de COVID-19 ha mostrado su carácter sindémico, ya que al contagio por coronavirus se une la alta prevalencia de enfermedades crónicas en un contexto de gran desigualdad social, con un claro gradiente en todas ellas. Los objetivos de este artículo son: 1) mostrar un marco conceptual que permita identificar los determinantes de la desigualdad social en la COVID-19; 2) mostrar la evidencia disponible sobre las desigualdades socioeconómicas en diversos aspectos relacionados con la COVID-19 en España; y 3) realizar recomendaciones para monitorizar, comunicar e intervenir con políticas para la disminución de las desigualdades sociales en la COVID-19, mostrando ejemplos desarrollados en España. El marco conceptual incluye factores determinantes estructurales e intermedios que reflejan los diferentes ejes de desigualdad que caracterizan el carácter sindémico de la COVID-19. La revisión de la literatura publicada en España hasta julio de 2021 describe un gradiente socioeconómico en la COVID-19, aunque con hallazgos no siempre consistentes, así como un impacto desigual de muchas medidas de control de la pandemia. Las propuestas para la disminución de las desigualdades sociales en la COVID-19 incluyen: 1) garantizar la monitorización y la investigación con perspectiva de equidad; 2) reducir las desigualdades en COVID-19 a través de sus factores determinantes intermedios y estructurales; y 3) diseñar modelos de comunicación y marcos de comprensión de la pandemia que den prioridad explicativa a la desigualdad social. Teniendo en cuenta la naturaleza sindémica de la COVID-19 y el conocimiento acumulado, los sistemas de vigilancia, las intervenciones y la comunicación deben incluir la perspectiva de la equidad. Abstract: The COVID-19 pandemic has shown its syndemic nature where the contagion by coronavirus joins the high prevalence of chronic diseases in a context of great social inequality and a clear gradient of those pathologies. The objectives of this article are: 1) to show a conceptual framework of ...

    Abstract The role of urban parks has gained interest in urban health research. However, there are currently no clear definitions of these urban assets as exposure variable across the literature, which do have implications for the analysis. In this study, we exhibit an approach to design a comprehensive spatial database of urban parks in cities, using the example of Madrid. This approach consisted of the combination of different spatial databases containing information about parks and green spaces in the city of Madrid, and then a spatial processing to keep only those that met the selected criteria for urban park definition: accessible for pedestrians (to have at least one path around or through the area) and with the minimum size suitable (bigger than 0.50 ha) for physical activity. This approach can be helpful to design spatial databases that enable conducting epidemiological studies on the relationship between urban parks and population health. Resumen: El papel de los parques ha cobrado interés en la investigación sobre salud urbana. Sin embargo, actualmente no existen definiciones claras de estos activos urbanos como variable de exposición, lo que tiene implicaciones para el análisis. En este estudio se muestra un enfoque para diseñar una base de datos espacial integral de parques en ciudades, utilizando el ejemplo de Madrid. Se combinaron diferentes bases de datos espaciales con información sobre parques y espacios verdes de la ciudad de Madrid, que luego se procesaron espacialmente para mantener aquellos que cumplían los criterios de definición de parque: accesible (disponer de al menos un camino alrededor o a través del área) y un tamaño mínimo adecuado para realizar actividad física (mayor de 0,5 ha). Este enfoque puede ser útil para diseñar bases de datos espaciales que permitan realizar estudios epidemiológicos sobre la relación entre parques urbanos y salud poblacional.

    Abstract AbstractAlcohol consumption in unlicensed public places has become a topic of intense debate in Spain due to its negative impact on health and social outcomes, and the inefficiency of current alcohol policies. This research aimed to explore the perceptions of individuals aged 40 and over regarding alcohol consumption in unlicensed public places in socioeconomically diverse neighbourhoods in Madrid. 37 semi-structured interviews and 29 focus groups were conducted in three neighbourhoods with different socioeconomic statuses. The analysis drew on Corbin and Strauss’s grounded theory coding strategies. The findings of the study showed that people aged 40 and over problematised alcohol consumption in unlicensed public places, such as parks and squares. The problematisation followed a two-step process. Initially, non-compliance with current restrictions on alcohol sales during the night-time in convenience stores, including the sale of alcohol to minors, was identified as an issue. This, in turn, led to alcohol consumption in unlicensed public places, which was associated with negative outcomes such as alcohol-related litter, noise nuisance, and violence. These consequences were disproportionally perceived in the least affluent neighbourhood. To address the disproportionate impact of alcohol-related behaviours in the least affluent neighbourhoods, reinforcing existing alcohol sales policies is warranted. This may reduce alcohol consumption in unlicensed public places and its related negative outcomes.

    Abstract this paper presents an analysis of the discussions during the Fifth National Forum on Social Appropriation of Science, Technology and Innovation, specifically in the action line of transfer and knowledge exchange. These discussions were aimed at making a balance of the Colombian policies on Social Appropriation of Science, Technology and Innovation, and at generating recommendations. In this analysis a set of tensions is identified in dialogue with research and work carried out in Colombia and Latin America in recent decades. This lays the groundwork for reflection to propose four elements that should characterize the processes of social appropriation of knowledge, which, in the future, can be used as analytical categories. To conclude, the paper proposes to highlight the role of social appropriation of knowledge in the context of the dialogue and negotiation of the Colombia conflict.

    Abstract The analysis of urban health transformations must include the study of how neighbourhoods are influenced by demographic changes such as immigration. The objective of this study was to analyse how the relationship between native and immigrant residents in neighbourhoods with different socio-economic levels influenced the use of urban health assets, such as public spaces and food stores. Three Madrid neighbourhoods of different socio-economic levels were selected and studied by conducting 37 semi-structured interviews and 29 focus groups. Data analysis was based on qualitative sequential discourse.The main finding was that the presence of immigrants in Madrid neighbourhoods, especially with low and medium socio-economic levels, was perceived negatively, affecting the use of public spaces and food stores. This negative perception unfolded in three dimensions: (1) difficulties for natives and immigrants to live together; (2) limitations on using public spaces caused by a feeling of insecurity; (3) criticism of immigrant food stores, especially Chinese-run food stores. Our findings showed a worrisome lack of social contact between immigrants and native residents, which affected the use of urban health assets, such as public spaces and food stores.

    Abstract We demonstrate that an optical probe beam with high spherical aberration used for glucose concentration measurements gives better sensitivity compared to a probe beam free of aberrations, under similar conditions. We place a singlet focusing lens at a large distance from a laser source with a Gaussian intensity profile to obtain a spherically aberrated probe beam with negligible truncation. The aberrated probe beam propagates through a transparent liquid sample. Intensity profiles of the transmitted beam are recorded by means of a homodyne profiler to perform the glucose concentration measurements accurately.

    Abstract Objective: To describe the design and methodology of a qualitative study to explore the main factors influencing dietary inequalities in adolescents in Madrid and Bilbao, Spain. Method: The study area included six neighborhoods (three in each city) of different socioeconomic status (SES): low, medium, and high. We sampled 12 secondary schools (six in each city: two per socioeconomic level). Our methodology comprised: 1) developing an ad hoc index to classify all neighborhoods according to their SES; 2) selecting the study area and sample; 3) conducting semi-structured interviews (n = 36) and focus groups (n = 24). Grounded theory and phenomenological analysis will be employed in data analysis. Initially, we found factors influencing in adolescents’ diet such as gender, family environment, and SES. Conclusions: Systematizing the selection of neighborhoods and secondary schools, along with using appropriate methods, could serve as a foundation for future studies on health inequalities among adolescents. Resumen: Objetivo: Describir el diseño y la metodología de un estudio cualitativo que explora los factores principales que influyen en la desigualdad alimentaria en los adolescentes en Madrid y Bilbao, España. Método: Se seleccionaron seis barrios (tres en cada ciudad) de diferente estatus socioeconómico (ESE): bajo, medio y alto. Obtuvimos una muestra de 12 institutos (seis en cada ciudad y dos por nivel socioeconómico). La metodología consistió en: 1) desarrollo de un índice ad hoc para clasificar los barrios según su ESE; 2) selección de las áreas de estudio y de institutos; 3) realización de entrevistas semiestructuradas (n = 36) y grupos de discusión (n = 24). En el análisis se utilizarán la teoría fundamentada y el análisis fenomenológico. Inicialmente, encontramos factores que influyen en la alimentación de los adolescentes, como el género, el entorno familiar y el ESE. Conclusiones: La sistematización en la selección de barrios e institutos, y la utilización de metodología adecuada, pueden servir como base ...

    Abstract This study aimed to analyze the different types of emotional regulation in first and second year high school students according to sex and age. Many adolescents do not meet the minimum WHO recommendations, at a critical stage in which habits that will later be maintained are established. For this reason, physical education is an important means to promote these habits and an understanding of the reasons for their participation in physical education. For this purpose, PLOC-2 was used. The Kolmogorov–Smirnov test was used to determine the characteristics of the data, the ANOVA test to explore the differences between sexes, and the Spearman test for correlations between the type of regulation and age. The results showed significant differences in several items and emotional regulation by sex and an inverse correlation between age and demotivation. There are differences between the reasons why both sexes perform physical activity, and we have determined that boys have more intrinsic regulation than girls do.
