La presentación de ‘La educación nos hace libres’ se salda con éxito

El capítulo cinco, escrito por el profesor doctor, Manuel Ortega Caballero, es en el que se hace referencia al aspecto deportivo.
En la noche del pasado lunes, en el Aula de Grados del Campus Universitario de Melilla, tuvo lugar la presentación del libro ‘La educación nos hace libres’ ante alumnos de la Facultad  de Educación y público en general que no quiso perder la oportunidad para saber de esta nueva obra.
El Dr. Juan Antonio Vera fue el encargado de de abrir el acto, donde explicó quien  han participado en la obra, un total de 15 profesores doctores de la Universidad de Granada, siendo tres de ellos de Melilla, Dr. Antonio Guevara, Dr. Manuel Ortega y él mismo, todos del Departamento de Pedagogía. También indicó que el libro está compuesto por catorce capítulos que abarcan diferentes temas dentro del ámbito de la educación.
El capítulo cinco, escrito por el profesor doctor (exjugador internacional de fútbol), Manuel Ortega Caballero, es en el que se hace referencia al aspecto deportivo. En él podemos apreciar la dimensión y efecto social del deporte, violencia y deporte, contexto ecológico, valores y educación, valores del deporte, cronología de los valores educativos y una conclusión final.
La presentación finalizó con unas palabras del profesor Vera, que agradeció la presencia de los alumnos e incitó a que no perdieran la oportunidad de leer el libro.
Destacar la gran afluencia de público para dar luz verde a un libro de interés socio-educativo general que está en todas la librerías españolas y que es muy posible que se convierta en un texto “cuasi” indispensable para futuros docentes.

A virus similar to herpes could be a risk factor for multiple sclerosis

At present, while there is no cause known for this condition, patients with MS seem to have genetic vulnerability to certain environmental factors that could trigger this condition, such as the Epstein-Barr virus. Scientists at the University of Granada have found a relation between the Epstein-Barr virus –which belongs to the herpesviruses family–and the development of this condition

The Epstein-Barr (EVB) virus –belonging to the herpesviruses family, which also includes the herpes simplex virus and the cytomegalovirus– is one of the environmental factors that might cause multiple sclerosis, a condition affecting the central nervous system, which causes are unknown. This has been confirmed by University of Granada scientists that analyzed the presence of this virus in patients with multiple sclerosis. Researchers analyzed antibody levels, that is, antibodies that are produced within the central nervous system and that could be directly involved in the development of multiple sclerosis.

Multiple sclerosis is a demyelinating condition affecting the central nervous system. Although the cause for this condition is unknown, patients with MS seem to have genetic vulnerability to certain environmental factors that could trigger this condition.

While other studies have tried to ellucidate whether infection with the Epstein-Barr virus could be considered a risk factor in multiple sclerosis, what University of Granada researchers did was conducting a meta-analysis of observational studies including cases and controls, aimed at establishing such association.

A 151-patient sample

In a sample of 76 healthy individuals and 75 patients with multiple sclerosis, researchers sought a pattern that would show an association between this virus and multiple sclerosis. Thus, they determined the presence of ant¡bodies to Epstein-Barr virus antigens synthetized within the central nervous system. Simultaneously, they identified viral DNA to measure antibody levels to EBV within the central nervous system, and the presence of EBV DNA respectively.

This piece of research was conducted by Olivia del Carmen Santiago Puertas at the Department of Microbiology, University of Granada, and coordinated by professors José Gutiérrez Fernández, Antonio Sorlózano Puerto and Óscar Fernández Fernández.

The researchers found a statistically significant association between viral infection and multiple sclerosis starting from the detection of markers that essentially indicate an infection in the past, while markers that indicate recent infection or reactivation are not relevant.

The researcher Olivia del Carmen Santiago Puertas state that, as the factors triggering this condition are still unknown “studying them is important to try to develop a prevention method”.

This study found an association between MS and some viral infection markers “but, to obtain a definitive conclusion, further research is needed with a significant number of patients that combine different microbiological techniques, where the different viral infection markers are recorded, and assessing patients’ clinical state even years before the onset of the first symptoms of multiple sclerosis”.
