How to make an impact in surgical research: a consensus summary from the #SoMe4Surgery community
No full textUnderstanding and interpreting medical literature through critical thinking and applying this knowledge to evidence-based practice is an integral part of surgical training. Participating in research accelerates this process; however, young doctors' involvement in research may be suboptimal. Our aim was to provide young surgeons with recommendations on how to properly engage in surgical research. An online twitter conversation focused on recommendations about how a young physician can succeed in research was undertaken. Twitter activity for that conversation and hashtags was analyzed. A consensus based on the recommendations extracted from the discussion is summarized. Key opinion leaders were engaged to promote the conversation. Discussion was opened to all participants related to surgery or surgical research, including surgeons, medical students, nurses, patients, and healthcare workers. A total of 244 participants engaged in the Twitter conversation. The highest tweeted hashtags were #SoMe4Surgery and #SurgicalResearch with 855 and 847 tweets, respectively. Themes that came out of the conversation included 'Mentorship', which was the most essential recommendation. 'International collaboratives' and 'foreign research fellowship' were also deemed important factors for a successful path in research. Additionally, routine read of online journals, use of social media for scientific purposes, often engagement in manuscript drafting and proper time management were also recommended. Research is demanding and time consuming but an essential part of surgical education. We believe that any young surgeon can have greater chances to succeed in surgical research by following our recommendations and by academically using social media platforms
A Risk-Based Screening Approach to Patients Needing Surgery During the De-Escalation Phase of COVID-19 Pandemic
No full textSince the outbreak of COVID-19 pandemic, many national and international surgical societies have produced guidelines regarding the management of surgical patients. During the mitigation phase of the pandemic, most documents suggested to consider postponing elective procedures, unless this might have impacted the life expectancy of patients. As awareness and knowledge about COVID-19 are gradually increasing, and as we enter a phase when surgical services are resuming their activities, surgical strategies have to adapt to this rapidly evolving scenario. This is particularly relevant when considering screening policies and the associated findings. We herein describe a risk-based approach to the management of patients with surgical diseases, which might be useful in order to limit the risks for healthcare workers and patients, while allowing for resuming elective surgical practice safely

No full textEl artículo propone un acercamiento al problema de la originalidad latinoamericana en la poesía de Rubén Darío en su tensión con las literaturas no hispanoamericanas. Para ello se han elegido dos poemas de Prosas profanas (1896): "Sinfonía en gris mayor" y "Bouquet", con el fin de leer en ellos el procedimiento por el cual el poeta cita y sobre todo imita el poema "Symphonie en blanc majeur", de Théophile Gautier, para luego desmantelar, con la copia, un sentido esencialista de originalidad y pureza; cuestión que le había valido una serie de acusaciones, fundamentalmente, en la polémica con Paul Groussac hacia el mismo año de publicación del libro.The article addresses a first approach to the problem of Latin American originality in the poetry of Rubén Darío in his tension with the other non-Hispano-American literatures. For this, two poems have been chosen from Prosas profanas (1896): “Sinfonía en gris mayor” and “Bouquet”, in order to read in them the procedure by which the poet quotes, and above all imitates, the poem "Symphonie en blanc majeur" by Théophile Gautier to dismantle, with the copy, an essentialist sense of originality and purity, an issue that it had been worth a series of accusations, fundamentally, the controversy with Paul Groussac towards the same year of publication of the book.Fil: Garbatzky, Irina Ruth.

Rescatar del olvido (Azorín en Blanco y Negro)
No full textSome articles written by José Martínez Ruiz for the Blanco y Negro illustrated weekly between 1904 and 1910 were analysed, according to the requirements of this monograph. They were collected by José García Mercadal, in a volume entitled En lontananza [In the distance] (1963), alongside many others from varying backgrounds. These collaborations were a kind of literary workshop for Azorín, given that those not made into a book would serve as trials for works or parts of subsequent works. At other times, our author would re-elaborate existing works, giving them new dimensions. Finally, many beautiful stories have remained forgotten in the pages of Blanco y Negro – works which would not be seen in any volume of Azorín’s wide range of works.Atendiendo a las exigencias de este monográfico, se estudian algunos artículos que José Martínez Ruiz escribió para el semanario gráfico Blanco y Negro entre 1904 y 1910. Son, precisamente, aquellos que, en 1963, José García Mercadal recogió en el volumen titulado En lontananza, entre otros tantos de diversa procedencia. Estas colaboraciones fueron una especie de taller literario para Azorín, puesto que las que no pasaron a un libro sirvieron como probaturas para obras o partes de obras posteriores. Otras veces, en cambio, nuestro autor reelaboró escritos ya existentes, dándoles una nueva dimensión. Por último, en las páginas de Blanco y Negro quedaron olvidados bellos cuentos que luego no encontraron cabida en ningún volumen de la amplia creación azoriniana
El futuro de la educación en cirugía: ¿Qué aportan las nuevas tecnologías y las redes sociales a la formación del estudiante de medicina y de los residentes de cirugía?
No full textNew technologies and social networks currently contribute to a part of medical training in various fields. The changes that will be part of the future of surgery and the new generations of medical students and residents of surgery who will become future surgeons can influence the way in which the technological revolution is part of surgery. This article reviews the new conditions for the future that will be faced from the surgical world, the generation that will be the basis of these changes, and the contributions, limitations and benefits that new technologies can bring.Las nuevas tecnologías y las redes sociales hoy en día forman parte de la formación médica en diversos ámbitos. Los cambios que veremos en la cirugía y el cambio generacional de los futuros cirujanos influirán en la manera en que la revolución tecnológica forme parte de la cirugía. En este artículo se revisan las nuevas condiciones de futuro que se afrontarán desde el mundo quirúrgico, la generación que será la base de dichos cambios, y las contribuciones, limitaciones y beneficios que las nuevas tecnologías pueden aportar
The educative dimension of the life of Rufino Blanco y Sánchez (1861-1936)
No full textFrente al ideal krausista sobre la cultura y la enseñanza, Rufino Blanco desarrolló
una intensa actividad pedagógica y propuso un programa docente en la Escuela Superior de
Magisterio de Madrid. Siendo autor regeneracionista de creencias cristianas, se opuso a la
secularización de la vida pública y a la neutralidad religiosa en la escuela. Podría ser situado
en la corriente católica, representada por Manjón, Ruiz Amado, Pedro Poveda y otros. De
fundamentación neoescolástica, no dudó en dialogar con las corrientes pedagógicas de la época
(Pestalozzi, Dewey, Mercier). En estas líneas se recoge un retrato pedagógico, intelectual y
humano de este pedagogo español.Faced with the Krausist ideal of culture and education, Rufino Blanco developed
an intense pedagogical activity and proposed a teaching program at the Escuela Superior de
Magisterio in Madrid. Being a regenerationist author of Christian beliefs, he opposed the
secularization of public life and religious neutrality at school. It could thus be situated in
the Catholic stream, represented by Manjón, Ruiz Amado, Pedro Poveda and others. With a
neo-scholastic foundation, he did not hesitate to dialogue with the pedagogical currents of the time (Pestalozzi, Dewey, Mercier). In these lines a pedagogical, intellectual and human
portrait of this Spanish pedagogue is collected.Educació
