Un estudio sobre siniestralidad laboral en Ceuta es la base para otro en EEUU

Escrito por

Un estudio realizado en la Ciudad Autónoma de Ceuta sobre los accidentes de trabajo y su relación con la cultura preventiva ha servido de base para la realización de otro en Estados Unidos, donde se ha analizado la evolución de la siniestralidad en dicho país.
El profesor de la Universidad de Granada en Ceuta José Aureliano Martín Segura presentará el próximo 5 de noviembre en Boston las conclusiones de su trabajo «Causas estructurales de los accidentes de trabajo: Un análisis comparativo de España y EEUU», según ha informado a Efe el autor.
Este estudio tiene su origen en una ponencia desarrollada por los miembros de esta universidad y también del Programa de Doctorado de Ceuta, José Aureliano Martín Segura y José Luis Navarro, y de un alumno del curso de Técnicas cuantitativas de investigación aplicadas a las Ciencias Sociales, Antonio Álvarez.
Esta ponencia fue expuesta en noviembre de 2011 en el marco del congreso de la American Public Health Association (APHA), en Washington y el mismo agradó a Paul Landsbergis, profesor asociado en el Departamento de Ciencias de la Salud Ambiental y Ocupacional, interesándose por este.
Los contactos han permitido hacer extensivo el estudio a EEUU, por lo que se solicitó a la Universidad de Nueva York que Martín Segura pudiera ir un mes entero a recabar datos de accidentes de los 50 estados.
La Universidad aceptó y el profesor ceutí ha estado un mes en New York y una vez recabados los datos ha empleado el mismo modelo y parámetro para los 50 estados.
La conclusión a la que ha llegado es que la precariedad laboral, el contrato precario y la edad del trabajador -de 16 a 19 años- son causas de siniestralidad laboral.
Una de las posibles causas de accidente es el pluriempleo, ya que en EEUU hay muchas personas que para poder llegar a final de mes desempeñan varios trabajos porque los salarios son muy bajos y éstos tienen más riesgos de sufrir accidentes.
Las gráficas que resultan de este trabajo indican que mientras la economía en EEUU crece, los accidentes de trabajo bajan, un fenómeno que también se da en España debido a que cuando la economía sube, hay más trabajadores por lo que sería más probable que se produjeran más accidentes de trabajo.
El trabajo indica que esto hace pensar que la cultura preventiva entre los empresarios asciende y que las medidas que se toman por las administraciones están surtiendo efecto.
Otra de las conclusiones a las que se ha llegado con este estudio es que la tasa de desempleo en el último año tuvo una asociación positiva con la tasa de lesiones y enfermedades en el año en curso, lo que indica que cuando crece el paro también lo hace el nerviosismo de quienes están trabajando y temen perder su puesto, una situación que aumenta las posibilidades de sufrir un accidente.
Estos estudios se han realizado con datos del periodo comprendido entre 1992 y 2010. EFE

Eating beef liver can improve long-term memory

Escrito por

64817 A new study in rats has shown that consuming choline, a vitamin B group nutrient found in foodstuffs like eggs and chicken or beef liver, soy and wheat germ, helps improve long-term memory and attention-holding capacity.

The study, conducted by scientists at the University of Granada (Spain) Simon Bolivar University, (Venezuela) and the University of York (United Kingdom), has revealed that choline is directly involved in attention and memory processes and helps modulate them.

Researchers studied the effects of dietary supplements of choline in rats in two experiments aimed at analysing the influence of vitamin B intake on memory and attention processes during gestation and in adult specimens.

In the first experiment, scientists administered choline to rats during the third term of gestation in order to determine the effect of prenatal choline on the memory processes of their offspring.

Three groups of pregnant rats were fed choline-rich, standard or choline-deficient diets.

When their offspring had reached adult age, a sample of 30 was selected: 10 were female offspring of dams fed a choline-supplement, 10 had followed a choline-deficient diet and the other 10, a standard diet, acting as a control group.

This sample of adult offspring underwent an experiment to measure their memory retention: 24 hours after being shown an object all the offspring (whether in the choline-supplement group or not) remembered it and it was familiar to them.

However, after 48 hours, the rats of dams fed a prenatal choline-rich diet recognized the object better than those in the standard diet group, while the choline-deficient group could not recognize it.

Thus, the scientists concluded that prenatal choline intake improves long-term memory in the resulting offspring once they reach adulthood.

In the second experiment, the researchers measured changes in attention that occurred in adult rats fed a choline supplement for 12 weeks, versus those with no choline intake.

They found that the rats which had ingested choline maintained better attention that the others when presented with a familiar stimulus.

The control group, fed a standard diet, showed the normal learning delay when this familiar stimulus acquired a new meaning.

However, the choline-rich intake rats showed a fall in attention to the familiar stimulus, rapidly learning its new meaning.

The study is published in the journal Nutritional Neuroscience and Behavioural Brain Research. (ANI)

  • El lunes empieza en Guadix el curso “Pedro Antonio de Alarcón: un asedio multidisciplinar”, dirigido por Eduardo Salas Romero y organizado por el Centro Mediterráneo de la UGR

Este curso ofrece un acercamiento, lo más completo posible, a la figura y obra del escritor, periodista y político Pedro Antonio de Alarcón, desde un marco incomparable como es Guadix, su tierra.

La singular y controvertida personalidad de Pedro Antonio de Alarcón y el interés literario, cultural y hermenéutico de su obra invitan a una aproximación a su figura así como a la relectura de sus texto a la luz de diferentes circunstancias históricas que vayan posibilitando nuevas interpretaciones en aras de un conocimiento más amplio y riguroso. En este sentido, este curso pretende un asedio múltiple, interdisciplinar, desde la literatura, la historia, la filología, la historiografía literaria, el cine y la televisión. Nuevos ojos y miradas inéditas sobre un personaje y una obra de proyección universal.

Asimismo, se ofrece a los participantes la posibilidad de indagar en los contextos histórico, geográfico, social y cultural en los que nace y se educa este escritor, periodista y político accitano, a través de la visita a lugares significativos y determinantes para su formación, así como de la explotación y contemplación de una muy bien nutrida colección de ediciones de su obra y de otras curiosidades de gran interés.

Este curso, dirigido por Eduardo Salas Romero, profesor de Teoría de la Literatura y Literatura Comparada de la UGR, está especialmente pensado para profesores y alumnos universitarios y todo aquel que tenga especial interés en la figura de Pedro Antonio de Alarcón y las prácticas ideológicas, históricas y culturales del siglo XIX español.

La nadadora Laura Pareja Prieto, del CDU Granada, ha establecido la mejor marca nacional de 14 años en 50 metros espalda con un registro de 30.50 (el anterior era de 30.58) en la prueba de 4×50 estilos en el Campeonato de Andalucía Absoluto de Verano que se ha disputado en Mairena del Aljarafe (Sevilla). Esta cita deportiva, que se ha celebrado en el Centro Acuático de Cavaleri, es la más importante de la temporada en Andalucía.

Además, Pareja Prieto ha sido seleccionada para participar en los Juegos Olímpicos de la Juventud Europea (JOJE), que se celebran durante esta semana y en los que nadará las pruebas de 50 y 100 metros espalda.

Además, el entrenador del CDU Jorge López es uno de los entrenadores que acompañará como técnico al seleccionado español.
