[en] With the aim of collaborating with sustainable development, in the present thesis, the utilization of recycled concrete aggregates (RCA) from construction and demolition wastes (CDW) for the manufacture of hot mix asphalt (HMA) for base layers of road pavements is investigated. The bibliographical review has shown a great variability in the performance of these mixtures, especially, in its water resistance. For this reason, moisture damage analysis is a key aspect in the present doctoral thesis. An exhaustive analysis of the affinity between the aggregate and the binder has been conducted. As a result, it was concluded that the use of gray cement as mineral filler and the application of a pretreatment (letting loose mixture settle in an oven for 4 hours and coating RCA with bituminous emulsion) improves the water resistance of mixtures made with RCA. A hot mix asphalt type AC 22 base G has been manufactured using both natural and RCA in percentages of 0%, 5%, 10%, 20% and 30%. Their water sensitivity has been studied and their fundamental mechanical properties were tested: stiffness, resistance to permanent deformation and fatigue resistance. The results of HMA made with gray cement filler, with and without pretreatment, and, in some cases, with variants of the pretreatments listed above have been compared. The results obtained indicate that the tested mixtures have good mechanical properties.

[gl] Co fin de colaborar co desenvolvemento sostible na presente tese investígase a posibilidade de empregar áridos reciclados (ARs) de tipo formigón, procedentes de residuos de construción e demolición (RCD), para a fabricación de mesturas bituminosas en quente para capas de base do firme das estradas. A revisión bibliográfica permitiu apreciar unha gran variabilidade no comportamento destas mesturas, en particular, no que respecta á súa sensibilidade á auga. Por iso, a súa análise é clave na presente tese de doutoramento. Levouse a cabo unha exhaustiva análise da afinidade dos áridos co ligante. Como resultado, chegouse á conclusión de que o emprego de cemento gris como po mineral e a aplicación dun pretratamento (repouso da mestura sen compactar na estufa durante 4 horas e preenvolta do AR con emulsión bituminosa) melloran a sensibilidade á auga das mesturas en que interveñen ARs de tipo formigón. Fabricouse una mestura bituminosa en quente AC 22 base G utilizando tanto árido natural como reciclado en porcentaxes de 0%, 5%, 10%, 20% e 30%; estudouse a súa sensibilidade á auga xunto coas súas propiedades mecánicas fundamentais (rixidez, resistencia á deformación permanente e resistencia á fatiga); e, finalmente, comparáronse os resultados das mesturas fabricadas con po mineral de cemento gris, con e sen pretratamento e, nalgúns casos, con variantes dos pretratamentos anteriormente indicados. Os resultados obtidos indican que as mesturas analizadas presentan unhas boas propiedades mecánicas.
[en] Nowadays, it is estimated that FDIC are one of the most habitual disorders in pediatric population affecting 25%–45% of typically developing children. Despite of the reductionist view that actual diagnostic manuals have of this disorder, the truth is that human behaviour during feeding is a complex process. In this sense, actual scientific literature suggest that FDIC emerge of the combination of medical, physiologic, social, environmental and family factors that constitute a net in continuous interaction. Consequently, due to the importance that feeder-child relationships have in the disorder's conceptualization, it is presented the realization of a qualitative study with a hermeneutic phenomenology design whose main data collection method is the semi structured interview. Through an intentional theoretical sampling in pediatric consultation of SERGAS in A Coruña, it is expected to get into primary feeder's beliefs, feelings and feeding practices in order to deeply understand as much their own attitudes as child's feeding disorder.

[gl] Na actualidade, estímase que os TIAI son un dos trastornos máis habituais entre a poboación pediátrica, afectando a un 25%–45% dos/as nenos/as con desenvolvemento típico. Malia a visión reducionista que os actuais manuais diagnósticos presentan deste trastorno, o certo é que o comportamento humano durante a inxestión é un proceso complexo. Neste sentido, a literatura científica actual suxire que os TIAI emerxen da combinación de factores de carácter médico, fisiolóxico, social, ambiental e familiar que constitúen unha rede que está en continua interacción. Consecuentemente, debido á importancia que as relacións alimentador-neno/a teñen na conceptualización do trastorno, exponse a realización dun estudo de deseño cualitativo de fenomenoloxía hermenéutica cuxo principal método de recollida de datos é a entrevista semiestruturada. A través da realización dun muestreo teórico intencionado nas consultas de pediatría do SERGAS da comarca da Coruña pretenderase penetrar nas crenzas, sentimentos e prácticas alimenticias do alimentador principal do infante con TIAI a fin de comprender de forma máis profunda tanto as súas propias actitudes como o trastorno alimentario do neno/a.
[en] High Mobility Group 1 (HMGB1) is a DNA-binding protein that also carries out cytoplasmic and extracellular functions. It has been linked in recent years to several diseases, including ovarian cancer. For this reason, HMGB1 is being studied as a possible therapeutic target in different types of tumours, as well as its involvement in processes of resistance to anti-tumour therapies such as treatments with cisplatin and its derivatives. Likewise, moesin is a cytoskeletal protein that has also been linked to various diseases. In this work, the process of optimising the validation of the HMGB1- MSN interaction in the cytoplasm of ovarian cancer cells has been conducted by testing the antibodies and tuning the technique known as Proximity Ligation Assay (PLA). For this purpose, different molecular techniques such as immunofluorescence, Western Blot, Dot Blot and PLA were used in this study.

[gl] A proteína High Mobility Group 1 (HMGB1) é unha proteína de unión a ADN que tamén leva a cabo funcións citoplasmáticas e extracelulares. Foi relacionada nestes últimos anos con diferentes enfermidades, entre elas o cancro de ovario. É por isto que HMGB1 está a ser estudiada como posible diana terapéutica en diferentes tipos de tumores, así como na súa implicación en procesos de resistencia a terapias antitumorais coma os tratamentos con cisplatino e derivados. Ademais, a moesina é unha proteína do citoesqueleto que tamén foi relacionada con diversas enfermidades. Neste traballo levouse a cabo o proceso de optimización da validación da interacción HMGB1-MSN no citoplasma de células de cancro de ovario, mediante o testeo dos anticorpos e a posta a punto da técnica coñecida coma Proximity Ligation Assay (PLA). Para isto, no presente estudo usáronse diferentes técnicas moleculares como a inmunofluorescencia, Western Blot, Dot Blot e PLA.
[en] Individual consumption decisions are made in a social context from which consumers receive influences and in which they are interacting. In addition, such decisions are performing consumer's modus vivendi, and on the other hand, the consumption preferences of buyers are determining their own belonging to some particular collectives or their identification with some specific social groups. In this work, we have studied the influence that advertising, persuasion and valuation of brands have on the buying intentions of consumers, from the point of view of the sociology of consumption. In order to verify and assess these influences, we conducted a survey in various commercial establishments and we have analyzed the responses, in basis to a structural equation model, which has led to identify and quantify the importance of these relationships, as well as checking the concordance between the achieved results from our empirical study, and the relevant academic literature.

[gl] As decisións individuais de consumo, son tomadas polas persoas nun contexto social do cal as persoas, como consumidoras, reciben influencias e no cal deben interactuar. Por outra banda, ditas decisións configuran o modus vivendi particular de cada quen e as propias preferencias de consumo determinan a pertenza a certos colectivos ou a identificación con determinados grupos sociais. Neste traballo estúdase a influencia que a publicidade, a persuasión e a valoración das marcas exercen sobre as intencións de compra das persoas, desde o punto de vista da socioloxía do consumo. Ao obxecto de comprobar e valorar ditas influencias, realizouse unha enquisa en distintos establecementos comerciais e analizáronse as respostas en base a un modelo de ecuacións estruturais, que permitiu determinar a importancia das devanditas relacións e comprobar, mediante un traballo empírico, que os resultados acadados nesta investigación son compatibles cos plantexados pola literatura académica relevante.
[en] Tobramycin is an aminoglycoside antibiotic used to treat certain perinatal infections, characterized by ototoxic potential. Its cochlear toxicity occurs initially damaging outer hair cells, contractile cells of the organ of Corti related to the production of otoacoustic emissions. The aim of this study is to determine cochlear damage in infants treated with tobramycin by recording and analysing transient evoked otoacoustic emissions (TEOAE). TEOAE were recorded in both ears from 46 infants treated with tobramycin for an average of 7.1 days (5 to 11 days) and 47 newborns without treatment, all of them without risk factors for hearing loss. The analysis revealed no significant differences between the two samples in the characteristics of the registered otoacoustic emission (total response amplitude, reproducibility and response by frequency) and do not found significant correlation between the response values and antibiotic (dose, treatment time and cumulative dose). It is concluded that treatment with short course of tobramycin in newborns does not affect otoacoustic emissions caused by click, which is related to absence of cochlear damage.

[gl] A tobramicina é un antibiótico aminoglicósido utilizado para tratar infeccións perinatais, caracterizado polo potencial ototóxico. Esta toxicidade coclear ocorre, inicialmente, danando as células ciliadas externas, células contractis do órgano de Corti relacionadas coa produción de emisións otoacústicas. O obxectivo deste estudo é determinar a afectación da coclea en nenos tratados con tobramicina través da gravación e análise de emisións otoacústicas provocadas por clic (TEOAE). Rexistráronse TEOAE en ambos ouvidos de 46 neonatos tratados con tobramicina durante unha media de 7,1 días (entre 5 e 11 días) e 47 neonatos sen tratamento, todos eles sen factores de risco para perda auditiva. A análise non revelou diferenzas significativas entre as dúas mostras nas características da emisión otoacústica rexistrada (intensidade do total de resposta, reproducibilidade e respostas por bandas de frecuencia) e non atoparon correlación significativa entre os valores de resposta e a carga de antibiótico (dose, tempo de tratamento e dose dose acumulada). Concluíuse que o tratamento con tobramicina de corta duración curta en acabados de nacer non afecta emisións otoacústicas provocadas por clic, o que está relacionado coa ausencia de dano coclear.
[en] This paper aims to address the study of the genetic diversity and the population structure of D. Trunculus coquina wedge clam individuals from three locations, two in Galicia and one in Portugal. To do so, a mitochondrial marker for the 16S gen was employed. Since wedge clams are affected by the Double Uniparental Inheritance (DUI) phenomenon, the analysis of both mitochondrial DNA types was required (F and M). The results showcase the haplotypes present in the three locations and reveal the absence of significant differences among the individuals from the three analysed locations. Furthermore, the results show that they are immersed in an expansion process that usually occurs after a drastic population size reduction, as currently happens to the wedge clam due to the decline of its exploitation.

[gl] O presente traballo aborda o estudo da diversidade xenética e da estructura poboacional de individuos de coquina D. trunculus de tres localidades, dúas galegas e unha portuguesa. Para isto utilizouse un marcador miticondrial do xen 16S. Debido a que na coquina presentase o fenómeno de Doble Herdanza Uniparental (DUI) foi necesaria a análise de cada tipo de ADN mitocondrial (F e M). Os resultados mostran os haplotipos presentes nas tres localidades e revelan a ausencia de diferenzas significativas entre os individuos das tres localidades analizadas; mostrando, ademais, que se encontran nun proceso de expansión típico tras sufrir unha reducción drástica do tamaño poboacional, como ocorre na coquina sometida actualmente a unha grande declive na súa explotación.
[en] The purpose of this Doctoral Thesis is to study the feasibility of injecting water mist into the exhaust ducts of marine gas turbines, in order to reduce the temperature of the exhaust gases and, therefore, their contribution to the infrared signature of the vessel. Given the difficulty of carrying out experimental tests on ships, the use of Computational Fluid Dynamics techniques (CFD) has been chosen in order to predict the behaviour of the process of interaction of water mist and exhaust gases inside the ducts exhaust of the turbines. In this sense, CFD techniques will allow the planning and resolution of physicmathematical models to find approximate solutions to the equations that govern the phase interaction phenomenon.

[gl] O propósito desta Tese de Doutoramento é estudar a viabilidade de inxectar auga nebulizada nos condutos de escape das turbinas de gas mariñas, co fin de reducir a temperatura dos gases de escape e, polo tanto, a súa contribución á sinatura infravermella do buque. Dada a dificultade de realizar probas experimentais en buques, escolleuse o uso de técnicas de Dinámica dos Fluídos Computacional (CFD) para predicir o comportamento do proceso de interacción da auga nebulizada e os gases de escape dentro dos condutos de escape das turbinas. Neste sentido, as técnicas CFD permitirán a planificación e resolución de modelos físico-matemáticos para atopar solucións aproximadas ás ecuacións que rexen o fenómeno de interacción de fases.

[en] People over 80 years of age have a 2.5% probability of suffering a stroke. The appearance of sequelae increases depending on the age of the person. Suffering a stroke can have a direct impact on the person's Quality of Life, being susceptible to intervention from Occupational Therapy. Objective: The main objective is to investigate the impact of stroke on the quality of life and occupations of older people institutionalized in gerontological centers. Methodology: It is a combined study, with an exploratory sequential design, using qualitative and quantitative methodology. The selected sample includes 7 participants. In the qualitative part of the study, a semi-structured interview will be used to collect information, the quantitative part will be evaluated with the CAVIDACE scale. Results: Various categories emerged from the interviews that respond to the marked objectives: main changes resulting from the stroke, impact of the stroke on occupational performance and QoL from the perspective of older people. All study participants suffered some sequelae from the stroke, which caused a loss of independence and, consequently, an alteration in their Quality of Life. In the CAVIDACE Scale the average of the Quality-of-Life Indices is 97.8 points. Conclusions: Suffering a stroke has a direct impact on the loss of independence of people who suffer it, modifying their occupational performance and daily life, and producing a loss in the perception of Quality of Life.

[en] Developmental Coordination Disorder (DCD) is one of the most frequent neurodevelopmental disorders in school-aged children worldwide, but it is a highly under-diagnosed condition in Spain. Moreover, little is known about the interrelation of sociodemographic factors, sensory processing and daily activities in DCD and functional performance in school-aged children with and without DCD. Thus, the aims of this thesis were: (1) to examine the prevalence and associated sociodemographic factors of DCD in Spanish school-aged children; (2) to identify how sensory processing patterns present in children with DCD in comparison to typically developing children and children with ADHD; and (3) to explore the role of individual, environmental and activity factors on performance and participation in motor-based daily activities in children with and without motor coordination difficulties. Two samples including more than 800 Spanish school-aged children were analyzed. Findings show that prevalence of p-DCD in this population ranges from 8% to 13%. In addition, we found a complex influence between individual (i.e., age, sex, sensory processing), environmental (i.e., family-related factors [educational background, area of residence and siblings] and country) and activity-related factors over daily functioning, where motor performance mediates the relationship between individual and environmental constraints, learning of activities and daily participation.

[gl] O Trastorno do Desenvolvemento da Coordinación (TDC) é unha condición do neurodesarrollo frecuente en poboación escolar noutros ámbitos xeográficos pero moi descoñecida no contexto español. Ademais, existe pouca información sobre a interrelación de factores sociodemográficos, do procesamento sensorial e das actividades diarias no TDC e no desempeño funcional en poboación escolar con e sen TDC. Os obxectivos desta tese foron: (1) examinar a prevalencia de TDC e os factores sociodemográficos asociados en escolares españois; (2) identificar os patróns de procesamento sensorial presentes no TDC; e (3) estudar o papel dos factores individuais, da contorna e da actividade no desempeño e participación en actividades motoras da vida diaria. Para iso analizáronse dúas mostras de máis de 800 escolares españois. Os achados mostran que a prevalencia de probable TDC en España alcanza o 8%-13%. Atopouse unha complexa influencia entre os factores individuais (idade, sexo, procesamento sensorial), da contorna (factores familiares e xeográficos) e relacionados coa actividade sobre o funcionamento diario, onde o desempeño motor media a relación entre os constrinximentos persoais e da contorna, a aprendizaxe de actividades diarias e a participación.
[en] Alter a briel discussion 01 the concepts 01 education and teaching, the origins, both theoretical and textual are examined. The lirst relerences are the pedagogical doctrines 01 Comenio and Locke, which to some extent, opened the way to the modern era. Later, it was the theory 01 Rousseau and the practical application 01 Napoleon Bonaparte, who established the Iramework 01 contemporary public education through the world of ideas and the concepts 01 Nation and Sta te.

[gl] Despois dunha breve digresión sobre os conceptos de educación e instrucción, estúdianse as orixes teóricas e textuais da educación pública. As primeiras relerencias serán as doutrinas pedagóxicas de Comenio e Locke, abrindo, dalgún xeito, a modernidade. Máis tarde, Rousseau, na teoría, e Napoleón Bonaparte, na práctica, establecen os perfís delinitivos da educación pública contemporánea, a través do mundo das ideas e dos conceptos de Nación e Estado.
[en] Since its birth in France, the relevance of the Right to Digital Disconnection has had a notorious influence in these times. The purpose of this right is to ensure that workers can rest outside their working day, with a view to look for a balance between their personal and working lives. On this basis, and in an era in which digital rights are prospering, the different legislators within their relevant regimes, and the companies, try to design policies and practices that are premised on maintaining these areas. Therefore, this paper will focus on a comparative analysis of the Right to Digital Disconnection under Spanish and Argentine law in order to address its legal recognition in both countries.

[gl] Dende o seu nacemento en Francia, a relevancia do dereito á desconexión dixital tivo unha notable influencia nestes tempos. A súa finalidade é proporcionar descanso aos traballadores fóra da súa xornada laboral, co fin de procurar a harmonía entre a súa vida persoal e laboral. Con esta finalidade, e nunha época na que os dereitos dixitais están en pleno auxe, os diferentes lexisladores nos seus respectivos réximes, e as empresas, tratan de deseñar políticas e prácticas que se baseen no mantemento dos devanditos ámbitos. Por iso, este traballo centrarase na realización dunha análise comparativa do Dereito á Desconexión Dixital recollido no dereito español e arxentino para abordar o seu recoñecemento legal en ambos países.
