RESUMO
Antecedentes: El Registro Español de Investigación en Dermatitis de Contacto y Alergia Cutánea tiene entre sus objetivos la vigilancia epidemiológica de la dermatitis de contacto. Para ello es importante conocer si se producen alteraciones en el tiempo de las prevalencias de las positividades a los distintos alérgenos. Objetivos: Describir las variaciones en las tendencias temporales en positividades a alérgenos en la serie estándar del GEIDAC en el periodo comprendido entre 2018 y el 31 de diciembre de 2022. Métodos: Estudio observacional multicéntrico de pacientes estudiados consecutivamente mediante pruebas epicutáneas dentro del estudio de un posible eczema alérgico de contacto recogidos de forma prospectiva en el seno del Registro Español de Investigación en Dermatitis de Contacto y Alergia Cutánea. Se analizaron los datos mediante 2 pruebas estadísticas: una de homogeneidad (para ver si hay cambios en los diferentes años) y otra de tendencia (para ver si los cambios siguen una tendencia lineal). Resultados: Se incluyeron un total de 11.327 pacientes en el periodo de estudio. Los alérgenos en los que de forma global se detectó una sensibilización mayor fueron sulfato de níquel, metilisotiazolinona, cloruro de cobalto, metilcloroisotiazolinona/metilisotiazolinona y mezcla de fragancias i. Se detectó una disminución estadísticamente significativa en el porcentaje de positividades de metilisotiazolinona a lo largo de años de estudio con una tendencia ordenada. Conclusiones: Si bien se pueden apreciar diferentes cambios en las tendencias a sensibilizaciones a varios de los alérgenos de la batería estándar, se observa que persiste una alta sensibilización al níquel, a la metilcloroisotiazolinona/metilisotiazolinona y a la mezcla de fragancias i. Solo se aprecia una tendencia a disminuir de forma significativa en el caso de la metilisotiazolinona.(AU)
Background: The epidemiological surveillance of contact dermatitis is one of the objectives of the Spanish Registry of Research in Contact Dermatitis and Cutaneous Allergy. Knowing whether the prevalence of positive tests to the different allergens changes over time is important for this monitoring process. Objectives: To describe the various temporary trends in allergen positivity in the GEIDAC standard series from 2018 through December 31, 2022. Methods: This was a multicenter, observational trial of consecutive patients analyzed via patch tests as part of the study of possible allergic contact dermatitises collected prospectively within the Spanish Registry of Research in Contact Dermatitis and Cutaneous Allergy. The data was analyzed using 2 statistical tests: one homogeneity test (to describe the changes seen over time) and one trend test (to see whether the changes described followed a linear trend). Results: A total of 11327 patients were included in the study. Overall, the allergens associated with a highest sensitization were nickel sulfate, methylisothiazolinone, cobalt chloride, methylchloroisothiazolinone/methylisothiazolinone, and fragrance mix i. A statistically significant decrease was found in the percentage of methylisothiazolinone positive tests across the study years with an orderly trend. Conclusions: Although various changes were seen in the sensitizations trends to several allergens of the standard testing, it became obvious that a high sensitization to nickel, methylchloroisothiazolinone/methylisothiazolinone and fragrances mix i remained. Only a significant downward trend was seen for methylisothiazolinone.(AU)

Background: Imagery rescripting (ImRs) has shown to be an effective treatment for posttraumatic stress disorders (PTSD) resulting from childhood-related trauma. The current theory is that the change of meaning of the trauma memory is central to the treatment. Several authors have suggested that the expression of needs, feelings and actions may act as potential healing factors, but little specific research aimed at (in)validating this hypothesis has been done so far.Objective: In this study we investigated to what extent the expression of inhibited action tendencies and the fulfilling of needs lead to the reduction of PTSD symptoms in clients with early childhood trauma.Method: Recordings of 249 therapy sessions of 24 ImRs treatments were rated with an observation instrument developed for this purpose, after which the scores were related to pre and posttreatment symptoms, assessed with the Impact of Events Scale-Revised (IES-R).Results: Scores on the IES-R decreased from pretreatment to posttreatment. The two subscales of the NATS (At-scale and N-scale)significantly predicted the posttreatment scores on the IES-R after controlling for the influence of pretreatment IES-R scores: the better the expression of inhibited action tendencies and the better the fulfilling of needs, the lower the symptoms after treatment.Conclusions: This pilot study on the underlying mechanisms of ImRs in PTSD treatment has shown that the expression of action tendencies and fulfilling basic needs during ImRs are associated with a decrease in PTSD symptoms after treatment, and that actions and basic needs cannot be viewed separately. Follow-up research could focus on which of the six domains of the Needs and Action tendencies Scale (NATS) has the greatest effect on the reduction of PTSD symptoms. With this information we can further improve the ImRs protocol.
The pilot study of working mechanisms of imaginary rescripting shows that the NATS is a reliable research tool for observing expressed action tendencies and fulfilled needs.The better the action tendencies are expressed during treatment and the better the needs are fulfilled, the lower posttreatment symptoms.It seems useful if practitioners are specifically trained during the ImRs training in performing actions that lead to the fulfilment of basic needs.

El crecimiento del número de organizaciones criminales y su complejidad, en la variedad conceptual, las implicancias teóricas y sus desafíos empíricos, han dificultado a los investigadores la generación de suficientes teorías, estudios de causas y escalas que permitan una categorización y explicación de sus fenómenos. La caracterización de estas organizaciones y el abordaje de su definición resultan complejos tanto por la diversidad de sus impactos sociales como por lo frondoso de las áreas temáticas que la abordan. Este estudio muestra las tendencias de investigación y estudio de las organizaciones criminales mediante la realización de una revisión sistemática de literatura de los años 2022 y 2023, utilizando el método PRISMA y explorando las tendencias actuales en la investigación académica y producción bibliográfica sobre el tema.
The growth in the number of criminal organisations and their complexity, in terms of conceptual variety, theoretical implications and empirical challenges, have made it difficult for researchers to generate sufficient theories, studies of causes and scales to categorise and explain the phenomena. The characterisation of these organisations and the approach to defining them is complex both because of the diversity of their social impacts and because of the broad range of thematic areas they address. This study shows the trends in research and study of criminal organisations by conducting a systematic literature review of the years 2022 and 2023, using the PRISMA method and exploring current trends in academic research and bibliographic production on the subject.

Background: The introduction of direct-acting oral anticoagulants (DOACs) has shown to decrease atrial fibrillation (AF)-related stroke and bleeding rates in clinical studies, but there is no certain evidence about their effects at the population level. Our aim was to assess changes in AF-related stroke and major bleeding rates between 2012 and 2019 in Andalusia (Spain), and the association between DOACs use and events rates at the population level. Methods: All patients with an AF diagnosis from 2012 to 2019 were identified using the Andalusian Health Population Base, that provides clinical information on all Andalusian people. Annual ischemic and hemorrhagic stroke, major bleeding rates, and used antithrombotic treatments were determined. Marginal hazard ratios (HR) were calculated for each treatment. Results: A total of 95,085 patients with an AF diagnosis were identified. Mean age was 76.1±10.2 years (49.7% women). An increase in the use of DOACs was observed throughout the study period in both males and females (p<0.001). The annual rate of ischemic stroke decreased by one third, while that of hemorrhagic stroke and major bleeding decreased 23-fold from 2012 to 2019. Marginal HR was lower than 0.50 for DOACs compared to VKA for all ischemic or hemorrhagic events. Conclusions: In this contemporary population-based study using clinical and administrative databases in Andalusia, a significant reduction in the incidence of AF-related ischemic and hemorrhagic stroke and major bleeding was observed between 2012 and 2019. The increased use of DOACs seems to be associated with this reduction.(AU)
Introducción: La introducción de los anticoagulantes orales de acción directa (ACOD) ha demostrado disminuir las tasas de accidentes cerebrovasculares y hemorragias relacionados con fibrilación auricular (FA) en estudios clínicos, pero no hay tanta evidencia sobre sus efectos a nivel poblacional. Nuestro objetivo fue evaluar los cambios en la incidencia de ictus y hemorragias mayores relacionados con FA entre 2012 y 2019 en Andalucía (España), y estudiar la asociación entre el uso de ACOD y estos eventos a nivel poblacional. Métodos: Se incluyeron pacientes con diagnóstico de FA entre los años 2012 y 2019 en la Base de Población Sanitaria de Andalucía, que proporciona información clínica de todos los andaluces. Se determinaron los accidentes cerebrovasculares isquémicos y hemorrágicos anuales, las tasas de sangrado mayor y los tratamientos antitrombóticos utilizados. Se estimaron los hazard ratio para cada tratamiento. Resultados: Se identificaron un total de 95.085 pacientes con diagnóstico de FA. La edad media fue de 76,1±10,2 años (49,7% mujeres). Se observó un aumento en el uso de ACOD a lo largo del período de estudio, tanto en varones como en mujeres (p<0,001). La tasa anual de ictus isquémico disminuyó en un tercio, mientras que la de ictus hemorrágico y hemorragia mayor se redujo de 2 a 3 veces entre 2012 y 2019. Los hazard ratio fueron inferiores a 0,50 para los ACOD en comparación con los antivitamina K para todos los eventos isquémicos o hemorrágicos. Conclusiones: En este estudio poblacional contemporáneo, se observó, utilizando bases de datos clínicas y administrativas de Andalucía, una reducción significativa en la incidencia de ictus isquémico y hemorrágico, y hemorragia mayor relacionados con FA entre los años 2012 y 2019. El mayor uso de ACOD parece estar asociado con esta reducción.(AU)

BACKGROUND: There is a need for epidemiological and incidence data on the occurrence of basal cell carcinoma (BCC) in Spain. OBJECTIVES: Our study was designed to retrospectively retrieve cases from our computer databases from 2010 through 2016 to provide updated data on the actual incidence of BCC in Valencia, eastern Spain. MATERIAL AND METHODS: This was an epidemiological study on basal cell carcinoma conducted in Valencia, eastern Spain. We analyzed a total of 2171 patients and 4047 tumors, and gathered data to estimate the actual incidence of BBC in our region. RESULTS AND CONCLUSIONS: Our study confirmed that the incidence of BCC is much higher than previously reported. We calculated a crude incidence of 410.38 BCCs/100 000 person-years, an adjusted rate for the European population of 256.98 BCCs/100 000 person-years, and an adjusted rate for the world population of 196.26 BCCs/100 000 person-years. Risk is up to 29.49% higher for men (464.07 cases/100 000 person-years vs 358.40 cases/100 000 person-years for women). Incidence also increases by an annual 3.91% (a significantly higher annual incidence of 8.28% in women vs a 0.92% annual incidence in men). Overall, the lifetime risk for developing a BCC is 5.8% (5.02% in women and 7% in men).
RESUMO
La nefrolitotomía percutánea (NLPC) es el tratamiento de referencia para los cálculos renales de gran tamaño. Aunque tradicionalmente la punción dirigida a la papila renal ha sido la piedra angular de este tratamiento, se han desarrollado tendencias de punción en sitios distintos de la papila renal que han despertado interés en este contexto. El objetivo de este estudio es investigar la evolución del acceso extrapapilar para la NLPC a lo largo de los años. Se realizó una revisión de la literatura y se incluyeron 13 publicaciones en el estudio. Se encontraron 2estudios experimentales que investigaban la viabilidad del acceso extrapapilar, 5estudios prospectivos de cohortes, 2retrospectivos sobre el acceso extrapapilar y 4estudios que comparaban el acceso papilar con el extrapapilar. La técnica de acceso extrapapilar ha demostrado ser una solución segura y eficaz capaz de adaptarse a las últimas tendencias endoscópicas. El uso generalizado de esta técnica es previsible en el futuro. (AU)
Percutaneous nephrolithotomy (PCNL) is the gold standard of treatment for large renal calculi. Papillary puncture is the mainstay of treatment for large renal calculi, but the non-papilary has been introduced and gained some interest. The aim of this study is the investigation of trends of non-papillary access for PCNL over the years. A review of the literature took place and 13 publications were included in the study. Two experimental studies investigating the feasibility of non-papillary access were found. Five cohort prospective and 2retrospective studies for non-papillary access and 4comparative studies between papillary and non-papillary access were included. Non papillary access is a technique that has been proved as a safe and efficient solution that keeps up with the latest endoscopic trends. A wider use of this method could be expected in the future.

Introduction Mortality from COPD has decreased in Spain in recent years, but it is unknown whether this decline has been homogeneous among the different regions. Methods From the Statistical Portal of the Ministry of Health of Spain we obtained the age-adjusted mortality rates/100,000 inhabitants for men and women in Spain and the Autonomous Communities for the years 19992019, using the coding of the International Classification of Diseases (ICD 10, sections J40J44). With the adjusted rates we performed a jointpoint regression analysis to estimate an annual percentage change (APC), as well as identify possible points of trend change. Statistical significance was considered for a value of p<0.05. Results During the study period, COPD mortality rates adjusted in Spain decreased from 28.77 deaths/100,000 inhabitants in 1999 to 12.14 deaths/100,000 inhabitants in 2019. We observed a linear decline in COPD mortality in men at national level of −3.67% per year (95% CI −4.1 to −3.4; p<0.001), with differences between the Autonomous Communities. Mortality in women also experienced a decrease in mortality in two phases, with a first period from 1999 to 2006 with a fall of −6.8% per year (95% CI −8.6 to −5.0; p<0.001) and a second period from 2006 to 2019 with a decrease in mortality of −2.1% (95% CI −2.8 to −1.3; p<0.001), with again differences between the Autonomous Communities. Conclusion Mortality rates from COPD have decreased heterogeneously among the different Autonomous Communities in both men and women (AU)
Introducción La mortalidad por EPOC ha disminuido en España en los últimos años, pero se desconoce si esta caída ha sido homogénea entre las diferentes comunidades autónomas. Metodología consultando el Portal Estadístico del Ministerio de Sanidad de España obtuvimos las tasas ajustadas por edad/100.000 habitantes para hombres y mujeres de España y las CCAA para los años 1999 a 2019, utilizando la codificación de la Clasificación Internacional de Enfermedades (CIE 10, secciones J40 a J44). Con las tasas ajustadas realizamos un análisis de regresión de jointpoint con el objetivo de estimar un porcentaje anual de cambio (APC), así como identificar posibles puntos de cambio de tendencia. Se consideró la significación estadística para un valor de p<0.05. Resultados Durante el periodo de estudio, las tasas de mortalidad global ajustada por EPOC en España pasaron de 28.77 muertes/100.000 habitantes en 1999 a 12.14 muertes/100.000 habitantes en 2019. Observamos una caída de la mortalidad por EPOC en varones a nivel de España lineal del -3.67% anual (IC 95% -4.1 a -3.4; p<0.001), con diferencias entre las CCAA. La mortalidad en mujeres también experimentó una disminución de mortalidad en dos fases, con un primer periodo de 1999 a 2006 con caída del -6.8% anual (IC 95% -8.6 a -5.0; p<0.001) y un segundo periodo de 2006 a 2019 con un descenso de la mortalidad del -2.1% (IC 95% -2.8 a -1.3; p<0.001), encontrando diferencias entre las CCAA. Conclusiones Las tasas de mortalidad por EPOC han disminuido de forma heterogénea entre las diferentes CCAA (AU)

ABSTRACTBackground: Initial evidence proposes that exposure to childhood adversity may induce avoidance or withdrawal behaviour. However, it remains unclear whether childhood adversity results in avoidance from externally directed thinking to both deliberate and spontaneous mind wandering, i.e. intentionally or unintentionally diverting attention from ongoing task to task-independent thoughts.Objective: To assess the associations between childhood adversity, and mind wandering, and to evaluate the mediating roles of cognitive flexibility, and habit tendencies.Methods: A total of 601 Chinese subjects (378 females, Mage = 19.37) participated in the current study. The participants completed a series of questionnaires including demographics, childhood maltreatment, cognitive flexibility, habitual tendencies, and mind wandering.Results: Hierarchical regression analyses showed childhood adversity, the control facet of cognitive flexibility, and the automaticity facet of habitual tendencies had significant contributions to deliberate mind wandering (ß = 0.10, ß = -0.40, and ß = 0.06) and spontaneous mind wandering (ß = 0.09, ß = -0.28, and ß = 0.07). Serial mediation analyses revealed that the control and automaticity partially mediated associations between childhood adversity and mind wandering (deliberate mind wandering: 95% CIs = [0.037 0.078], and spontaneous mind wandering: 95% CIs = [0.023, 0.062]).Conclusions: The findings underscore the pivotal role of mediators in delineating the relationship between childhood adversity and mind wandering in everyday life. Interventions geared toward augmenting the control component of cognitive flexibility and regulating the automatic component of habitual tendencies show the potential to ameliorate the propensity of individuals affected by childhood adversity to disengage cognitively from the present moment.
Individuals with greater childhood adversity have higher deliberate and spontaneous mind wandering.Low control and high automaticity contribute to mind wandering.The control and automaticity partially mediate the associations between childhood adversity and mind wandering.

BACKGROUND: The epidemiological surveillance of contact dermatitis is one of the objectives of the Spanish Registry of Research in Contact Dermatitis and Cutaneous Allergy. Knowing whether the prevalence of positive tests to the different allergens changes over time is important for this monitoring process. OBJECTIVES: To describe the various temporary trends in allergen positivity in the GEIDAC standard series from 2018 through December 31, 2022. METHODS: This was a multicenter, observational trial of consecutive patients analyzed via patch tests as part of the study of possible allergic contact dermatitises collected prospectively within the Spanish Registry of Research in Contact Dermatitis and Cutaneous Allergy. The data was analyzed using 2 statistical tests: one homogeneity test (to describe the changes seen over time) and one trend test (to see whether the changes described followed a linear trend). RESULTS: A total of 11327 patients were included in the study. Overall, the allergens associated with a highest sensitization were nickel sulfate, methylisothiazolinone, cobalt chloride, methylchloroisothiazolinone/methylisothiazolinone, and fragrance mix i. A statistically significant decrease was found in the percentage of methylisothiazolinone positive tests across the study years with an orderly trend. CONCLUSIONS: Although various changes were seen in the sensitizations trends to several allergens of the standard testing, it became obvious that a high sensitization to nickel, methylchloroisothiazolinone/methylisothiazolinone and fragrances mix i remained. Only a significant downward trend was seen for methylisothiazolinone.

Objetivo: Este estudio tuvo como objetivo analizar y relacionar el interés de la población, a través de tendencias de búsqueda de información, sobre el Síndrome Metabólico (MS) con la Salud Laboral (OH).Método: Estudio ecológico y correlacional del Volumen Relativo de Búsqueda (RSV) obtenido de la consulta de Google Trends, segmentado en 3 períodos buscados relacionados con la antigüedad; fecha de consulta: 30 de sep-tiembre de 2023.Resultados: La media más baja del RSV fue para el tema MS (2,23 ± 0,87), aunque hubo una correlación positiva en el RSV entre MS y OH (R = 0,56; p < 0,05). Se observó asociación (p < 0,05) entre los 3 períodos estudiados, excepto para los temas Hipertensión y Obesidad Central, pero significativamente menor en el período actual para los Temas MS y OH. Se encontró una estacionalidad moderada en el tema MS (KPSS = 0,14; p > 0,05), y se demostraron diferen-cias significativas en la búsqueda de información entre países desarrollados y no desarrollados (p > 0,05).Conclusiones: A través de sus búsquedas de información, toda la población demostró tener un menor conocimien-to sobre la MS que sobre las enfermedades que la componen. Se encontró relación entre las búsquedas de infor-mación realizadas sobre MS y OH. El estudio de las tendencias de búsqueda de información puede proporcionar información útil sobre el interés de la población por los datos de enfermedades, así como permitiría gradualmente analizar diferencias en popularidad, o interés incluso entre distintos países.

Objective: This study aimed to analyse and relate the population interest through information search trends, on Metabolic Syndrome (MS) with the Occupational Health (OH).Method: Ecological and correlational study of the Relative Search Volume (RSV) obtained from Google Trends que-ry, segmented into 3 searched periods concerning antiquity; date of query: September 30, 2023.Results: The lowest mean of the RSV was for the MS Topic (2.23 ± 0.87), albeit there was a positive correlation in the RSV amid MS and OH (R = 0.56; p < 0.05). Association (p < 0.05) was observed between the 3 periods under study, except for the Hypertension and Central Obesity topics, but significantly lower in the current period for the MS and OH Topics. Moderate seasonality was found in the MS topic (KPSS = 0.14; p > 0.05), and significant differences were demonstrated in the information search between developed and undeveloped countries (p > 0.05).Conclusions: Through their information searches, the whole population showed to have a dearth of knowledge of MS than of its component diseases. A relationship was found between the information searches carried out on MS and OH. The study of information search trends may provide useful information on the populations interest in the disease data, as well as would gradually allow the analysis of differences in popularity, or interest even between different countries.

Resumo O objetivo deste estudo foi avaliar a tendência temporal da qualidade da atenção à saúde da criança na consulta da primeira semana de vida no nível da Atenção Primária à Saúde, segundo características dos municípios, do processo de trabalho das equipes e das usuárias responsáveis pelas crianças. Foram realizadas análises transversais com dados dos três ciclos do Programa Nacional de Melhoria do Acesso e da Qualidade (PMAQ) (2012, 2014 e 2018). Usuárias adultas com filhos de até dois anos foram entrevistadas. O desfecho foi a "boa qualidade da atenção à saúde na primeira semana de vida". Foram realizadas análises descritivas e de tendência temporal por meio de regressão de mínimos quadrados ponderados por variância. A frequência de boa qualidade na consulta da primeira semana de vida foi 47,9% (IC95% 46,6-49,3) em 2012, 52,5% (IC95% 51,3-53,7) em 2014 e 53,3% (IC95% 52,2-54,4) em 2018, com um aumento anual de 0,73 ponto percentual (p<0,001). O aumento anual foi maior na região Nordeste (2,06 pp) e com IDH muito baixo/baixo (1,48 pp) e com 100% de cobertura de ESF (0,98 pp). Ao longo dos três ciclos do PMAQ-AB houve uma evolução favorável na frequência da boa qualidade na atenção à saúde na primeira semana de vida.
Abstract The aim of this study was to assess temporal trends in the quality of health care during the first-week child check-up in primary care services stratified by municipal, health team and maternal characteristics. We conducted a cross-sectional study using data from the three cycles of the National Program for the Improvement of Access and Quality (PMAQ) (2012, 2014 and 2018). Adult service users with children aged up to 2 were interviewed. The outcome was "good quality health care in the first week of life". Descriptive and time trend analyses were performed using variance-weighted least squares regression. The frequency of good quality care during the first-week check-up was 47.9% (95%CI 46.6-49.3) in 2012, 52.5% (95%CI 51.3-53.7) in 2014 and 53.3% (95%CI 52.2-54.4) in 2018, with an annual increase of 0.73 pp (p<0.001). The annual increase was greater in the Northeast (2.06 pp) and in municipalities with very low/low HDI (1.48 pp) and 100% family health strategy coverage (0.98 pp). Trends in the frequency of good quality health care during the first-week child check-up were favorable.
RESUMO
ABSTRACT Objetive: To provide a comprehensive analysis of mortality trends from acute pesticide poisoning in Mexico from 2000 through 2021. Methods: The governmental records of deaths from acute pesticide poisoning were used. The age-standardized years of life lost and aged-standardized mortality rates were estimated. Significant changes in trends of annual percentage change were identified using Joinpoint regression. Results: Between 2000 and 2021, mortality was primarily observed in individuals aged 15 to 19 years. Males were the most affected. Self-inflicted pesticide poisoning was the primary registered reason for death. The age-standardized mortality rate from acute pesticide poisoning was reduced from 2012 to 2021 (APC: -4.4; p=0.003). Conclusion: This report is the first study about the mortality rate from acute pesticide poisoning in Mexico. The results provided evidence to consider in developing laws to prevent acute pesticide poisoning.
RESUMO Objetivo: Fornecer uma análise abrangente das tendências de mortalidade por envenenamento agudo por pesticidas no México de 2000 a 2021. Métodos: Foram usados os registros governamentais de mortes por envenenamento agudo por pesticidas. Foram estimados os anos de vida perdidos estandardizados por idade e as taxas de mortalidade estandardizados por idade. Modificações significativas nas tendências de variação percentual anual foram identificadas usando a regressão Joinpoint. Resultados: Entre 2000 e 2021, a mortalidade foi observada principalmente em indivíduos na faixa etária de 15 a 19 anos. Os homens foram os mais afetados. O envenenamento por pesticida autoinfligido foi o principal motivo de morte registrado. A taxa de mortalidade estandardizada por idade por intoxicação aguda por pesticidas foi reduzida de 2012 a 2021 (Annual Percent Change — APC: -4,4; p=0,003). Conclusão: Este relatório é o primeiro estudo sobre a taxa de mortalidade por intoxicação aguda por pesticidas no México. Os resultados forneceram evidências a serem consideradas no desenvolvimento de leis para prevenir o envenenamento agudo por pesticidas.
RESUMO
Introducción: La historia de la dermatología se encuentra estrechamente ligada al desarrollo de la medicina. Objetivo: Exponer una fundamentación teórica de los antecedentes y concepciones actuales del proceso de formación del especialista en dermatología. Métodos: Se realizó una investigación de tipo histórico-descriptiva. Se emplearon métodos del nivel teórico: histórico-lógico y analítico-sintético; métodos del nivel empírico: análisis de documentos y observación. Resultados: El proceso formativo ha transitado desde una concepción basada fundamentalmente en el uso de hospitales-escuelas como escenarios docentes, espontánea y fragmentada, hasta un proceso formativo esencialmente con actividades prácticas, con una vinculación real con los problemas de la profesión, y la estructuración de un programa que expresa los modos de actuación profesional para conformar el perfil ocupacional en los puestos de trabajo. Conclusiones: Las inconsistencias teóricas y metodológicas reveladas en el proceso de formación del especialista en dermatología conllevan a la integración del método clínico; y los procedimientos en la práctica de laboratorio, hacia la interdisciplinariedad, la sistematización de contenidos y la apropiación de métodos investigativos, que, puestos en práctica, desarrollan las habilidades y los conocimientos en ese proceso de formación.
Introduction: The history of dermatology is closely linked to the development of medicine. Objective: To present the theoretical foundations concerning the antecedents and current conceptions of the training process of dermatology specialists. Methods: A historical-descriptive research was carried out. Theoretical methods were used: historical-logical and analytical-synthetic; as well as empirical methods: analysis of documents and observation. Results: The training process has transited from a spontaneous and fragmented conception, based fundamentally on the use of hospitals-schools as teaching scenarios, to a training process essentially with practical activities, with a real link to the problems of the profession, as well as the structuring of a program that expresses the modes of professional performance to make up the occupational profile of respective jobs. Conclusions: The theoretical and methodological inconsistencies revealed in the training process of the dermatology specialist lead to the integration of the clinical method; while the procedures within laboratory practice lead towards interdisciplinarity, systematization of contents and appropriation of research methods, which, put into practice, develop skills and knowledge in that training process.
