Authors: Castro Cristina , Inácio Gil Manuel Costa , Mendes Hugo , Paiva Teresa
Published: November 2023

Every year, 1.3 billion pieces of food are wasted, which impacts the circular economy's (CE) effective transition, and greater knowledge of the consumer's opinion and valorisation of food waste has positive consequences on food safety, the environment and sustainable consumption. There are different platforms and apps for improving food waste behaviour, some linked to social concerns and others trying to achieve circular economy goals. This study aims to analyse the influence drivers of users' motivation to use these food waste technologies in Portugal. It follows a qualitative approach to fully understand the user's motivation and link to their social and environmental concerns. Results revealed that most of the interviewees who used these platforms/apps were driven by economic influences and had environmental concerns. Identifying the users' drivers of influence on food waste and reflecting on the consequences for businesses and their marketing strategies on positioning and communication was possible, so promoting behaviour to facilitate the social dimension of the CE transition.

Published: November 2023

The possibility of investment and movement of capital between the countries, and the simplification of tax and customs regulations for the expansion of business boundaries strengthen the role and value of non-financial information for stakeholders. The study examines global trends in non-financial reporting, its regulation, and the nature of its use among large and medium-sized enterprises. During the research, it was concluded that the Integrated Report is the most relevant report for a wide range of stakeholders, as evidenced by the active growth in demand for it. At the same time, the Integrated Report should be filled with relevant understandable information and answer key stakeholders` questions. Our research proves that accounts receivable is the important indicator, that makes possible to get an answer about the nature of the enterprise interaction with all types of capital.

Published: November 2023

Alopecia areata (AA) were considered autoimmune non-scarring hair loss, found in 0.2% of the general population. Trichoscopy is a strong supporting diagnostic tool, especially for pediatric AA, which commonly presents in daily practice, and this case report aims to highlight its importance. A 4-year-old girl was brought to the outpatient clinic with a chief complaint of enlarging baldness for nine months. The lesion was initially coin-sized and gradually enlarged without itchiness. Supporting diagnostics revealed a reactive toxoplasma IgG with unremarkable trichoscopic findings, leading to the diagnosis of toxoplasma-related AA. Follow-up examination of trichoscopy after six weeks of therapy revealed significant improvement as indicated by short velus hair, pigtail hair, and upright regrowth. Prior reports have shown that there are several findings distinguishing adult and pediatric AA. Although these findings may be absent during the initial assessment, follow-up trichoscopy is essential to show hair regrowth indicating successful therapy. Trichoscopy serves as a valuable tool in the management of AA, with pediatric patients providing specific characteristics. Moreover, findings may differ depending on disease activity.
Laparoscopic management of iatrogenic colonic rupture
Authors: Al Trabulsi Hussam , Hreirati Issam , Muassess Tala
Published: November 2023

Latrogenic colonic perforation is a rare but serious complication of colonoscopies, with a range of underlying mechanisms, including mechanical and thermal causes, for which early detection and prompt action are essential. The management of this injury should be based on individual case factors, including the size of the perforation and the time of detection. Herein, we present the case of a 36-year-old woman who was referred to our surgical facility after a suspicion of colonic perforation during a colonoscopy. The diagnosis was confirmed through a computed tomography scan of the abdomen, which showed gross pneumoperitoneum and free fluid in the pelvis. Surgery revealed a very large colonic perforation, involving most of the wall circumference, which was subsequently classified as a colonic rupture caused by mechanical injury; the perforated segment was resected and a side-to-side hand-sewn anastomosis was created; surgery was completed laparoscopically. Early detection of the perforation in a well-prepared colon allowed for primary anastomosis without the need for fecal diversion or stoma. The patient had an uncomplicated postoperative course.
Knocking down AR promotes osteoblasts to recruit prostate cancer cells by altering exosomal circ-DHPS/miR-214-3p/CCL5 pathway

Tumor-derived exosomes have been shown to play a key role in organ-specific metastasis, and the androgen receptor regulates prostate cancer (PCa) progression. It is unclear whether the androgen receptor regulates the recruitment of prostate cancer cells to the bone microenvironment, even bone metastases, through exosomes. Here, we found that exosomes isolated from PCa cells after knocking down androgen receptor (AR) or enzalutamide treatment can facilitate the migration of prostate cancer cells to osteoblasts. In addition, AR silencing or treatment with the AR antagonist enzalutamide may increase the expression of circular RNA-deoxyhypusine synthase (circ-DHPS) in PCa cells, which can be transported to osteoblasts by exosomes. Circ-DHPS acts as a competitive endogenous RNA (ceRNA) against endogenous miR-214-3p to promote C-C chemokine ligand 5 (CCL5) levels in osteoblasts. Increasing the level of CCL5 in osteoblasts could recruit more PCa cells into the bone microenvironment. Thus, blocking the circ-DHPS/miR-214-3p/CCL5 signal may decrease exosome-mediated migration of prostate cancer cells to osteoblasts.

Authors: Mohan Gurinder , Singh Rajdeep , Narang Nisha
Published: November 2023

Background:

The purpose of the present research was to study the correlation between serum triglyceride (TG) levels and the severity of stroke as limited data are available on the role of TGs. The severity of stroke was determined using the Scandinavian Stroke Scale (SSS).

Methods:

In this cross-sectional study, 60 patients with acute ischemic stroke were included, who were diagnosed on clinical examination and 3-dimensional magnetic resonance imaging scan of the brain. Serum TG levels were categorized according to the National Cholesterol Education Program and the Adult Treatment Panel. Stroke severity was assessed with the help of SSS.

Results:

The mean serum TG levels in the study were found to be 147.7 mg/dl ± 92 mg/dl. The mean SSS score in the study was 27.93 ± 3.86. There was a statistically significant association between the serum TG levels and SSS (P = 0.001). The association was suggested by a positive Pearson correlation coefficient (r = 0.481). Patients with low serum TG levels (≤150 mg/dl) had severe strokes as assessed by the SSS (≤25).

Conclusion:

This study confirms that low levels of TG are associated with poor outcome of acute ischemic stroke, which can be explained by the fact that low serum TG levels indicate malnutrition, which is a poor prognostic factor.

Authors: Elassal Gehan M , Mahmoud Mahmoud M , Aly Dina E
Published: November 2023

Background

Known as severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2, the severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus is a new coronavirus illness [coronavirus disease-2019 (COVID-19)], it spreads quickly over the world. Patients with COVID-19 frequently have changes in platelet count. The platelet count is a highly useful clinical tool for tracking patients with aggressive viral infections who have rapidly changing health conditions since it is a sensitive indicator of sickness severity.

Aim

To study thrombocytopenia as a prognostic factor in COVID-19 patients and its relation with the length of hospital stay and prognosis.

Patients and methods

A total of 60 COVID-19 patients were involved in the prospective study during the period from June 2020 to December 2020 who were admitted to the isolation hospital, Ain Shams University Hospitals. Then for each patient, complete blood count at admission was done, repeated on day 7, day 14, and day 21. Patients were followed regarding the length of hospital stay and mortality.

Results

Out of 60 patients, 10 (16.6%) patients were thrombocytopenic. The length of hospital stay was significantly higher in a thrombocytopenic group. There was a high statistically significant difference between the normal platelets count group and the thrombocytopenic groups regarding outcome (P<0.001). In thrombocytopenic patients, five (50%) showed deterioration, four (40%) patients died and one patient in this group showed complete recovery.

Conclusion

Thrombocytopenia is associated with increased length of hospital stay and poor prognosis in patients with COVID-19.
The nasal route, advanced drug delivery systems and evaluation: a review
Authors: Rutvik Kaneriya , Meshva Patel , Dinal Patel , Mansi Dholakia
Published: November 2023

Nasal drug delivery is a well-known alternative to oral and parenteral drug delivery systems. Protein, peptides, hormones, and vaccines are the sensitive molecules for the oral route; hence those can be reached via nasal delivery. The nasal way has several advantages: higher permeability, more vasculature, less contact with enzymes due to less nasal space, and no hepatic first-pass metabolism. Therefore, it is a suitable route for sensitive drug molecules. Different applicators can deliver solid, liquid, and semisolid formulations for treating various diseases. The present review considers a brief introduction to the nasal route and problems associated with the nasal course for drug delivery, conventional and novel formulations, their applications, and evaluation parameters. Moreover, some of the marketed formulations for the nasal route of drug delivery systems and patented technologies are tabulated by reviewing the previous and updated literature.
Effect of obstructive sleep apnea syndrome on sleep architecture: comparative study between geriatrics and middle-aged adult patients
Authors: El-Helbawy Rana H , Kasemy Zeinab A , Eid Hanaa A
Published: November 2023

Background

Obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) is a prevalent sleep disordered breathing in geriatrics but still frequently undiagnosed. Sleep architecture changes with ageing. Geriatrics spend more time in the N1, N2 than in N3, REM. Also, there are more frequent awakenings, arousals and sleep stage shifts. This leads to decrease in sleep efficiency. Geriatric patients with OSA have more affected sleep architecture than middle-aged adults.

The aim

This work aimed to assess and compare sleep architecture changes in geriatrics versus middle-aged adult patients with OSA syndrome.

Patients and methods

This comparative study conducted in chest department Menoufia University Hospitals included 50 patients divided to two equal groups; geriatric group age 65 years old or more and middle-aged adult group aged from 18 to 50 years old. All patients were complaining of symptoms suggestive of OSA. All patients underwent sleep questionnaires and Polysomnography using model; Philipsrespironic alice6.

Results

There was no statistically significant difference between the studied groups regarding sex, smoking, co morbidities, BMI and symptoms. Regarding changes in sleep architecture, geriatric group showed a significantly higher Sleep latency and wakefulness after sleep onset in comparison to middle-aged adults (P=0.004 and 0.039, respectively) versus significantly lower Sleep efficiency, N3%, REM% (P=0.009,0.011 and 0.001, respectively). The median Total Apnea-Hypopnea index was 40.2 (/h sleep) in geriatric group and 35.4 in middle-aged adult group. Regarding severity of OSA; geriatric group showed mild OSA in five (20%) patients, moderate in five (20%) patient and severe in 15 (60%) patients. Middle-aged adults showed mild OSA in 10 (40%) patients, moderate in two (8%) patients, and severe in 13 (52%) patients.

Conclusions

Sleep architecture is affected in all OSA patients, but these changes are more obvious in geriatric patients. Geriatric patients have higher wakefulness after sleep onset and sleep latency. On the other hand, they have a lower N3%, REM% and sleep efficiency.

Ultrasonography Imaging versus Waveform Capnography in Detecting Endotracheal Tube Placement during Intubation at a Tertiary Hospital
Authors: Maskay Shirish Shakti , Shrestha Ninadini , Bastola Priska , Pradhan Bishwas , Shrestha Anil
Published: November 2023

Background:

There is continued research to find new faster, highly accurate, easily accessible, and portable methods of confirming endotracheal tube position during intubation. A newer modality for visualizing endotracheal tube location is transtracheal or transcricothyroid ultrasonography. The aim of this study was to see if ultrasound machine can also be routinely used for the confirmation of endotracheal tube position in operating theaters along with capnograph.

Methods:

The study was observational and prospective, conducted from January 2017 to July 2017. Study locations were at the Tribhuvan University Teaching Hospital and Manmohan Cardiothoracic Vascular and Transplant Center operating rooms. Sample size taken was 95.

Results:

In the study, 11 patients had esophageal intubation out of the 95. The accuracy of both ultrasonography and capnography was found to be 96.84%. For ultrasonography, the sensitivity, specificity, along with positive predictive value and negative predictive value were 97.62%, 90.91%, 98.80%, and 83.33%, respectively, while that for capnography were found to be 96.43%, 100%, 100%, and 78.57%, respectively. The kappa value was calculated to be 0.749, which suggested the degree of agreement of result between the methods to be good. Compared to capnography, ultrasonography was found to be significantly faster for the confirmation of endotracheal tube location by 16.36 s (15.70–17.02) (P = 0.011).

Conclusion:

Both waveform capnography and ultrasonography were found to be accurate and reliable in confirming endotracheal tube location. The use of ultrasound during intubation can help confirm endotracheal tube location faster and also aid in precision when used along with capnography. Manual bag ventilations are not necessary when confirming endotracheal tube position by ultrasonography and thus may help in preventing aspiration of gastric contents into the lungs of the patient.
Glucagon in health and diabetes
Authors: Chawla Rajeev , Jaggi Shalini
Published: November 2023

For decades all attention focused on the hormone insulin as a key player in diabetes and the role of glucagon was less studied or understood. We now know that both these pancreatic hormones play a critical role in maintaining glucose homeostasis in the body and the secretion of one controls the secretion of the other in an inverse relationship as described by the bihormonal theory of Unger. Glucagon, secreted by the α-cells of the islets of pancreas is a key hormone that has a “hyperglycemic” effect and is secreted in response to low plasma glucose concentration. Besides hypoglycemia, glucagon release is also stimulated by prolonged fasting or starvation, exercise as well as consumption of protein-rich meals. It is regulated by several key endocrine and paracrine mechanisms and the autonomic system in response to various stimuli including nutrient intake through various complex neurohormonal factors. It primarily increases endogenous hepatic glucose production, stimulates lipid and protein catabolism, and plays a key role in appetite regulation and increasing energy expenditure. Therefore, glucagon functions as a counter-regulatory hormone to insulin stimulating hepatic glycogenolysis, gluconeogenesis, fatty acid oxidation, and ketogenesis. With mounting evidence, there has been a paradigm shift in the management of diabetes following the advent of new agents that address different pathophysiological mechanisms contributing to worsening hyperglycemia. Targeting the alpha-cell defect and consequent glucagon hypersecretion has therefore emerged as an important therapeutic strategy in type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) management as well as body weight management. The currently available medications, including glucagon-like peptide 1 (GLP-1) receptor agonists, DPP-4 inhibitors, and amylin mimics (pramlintide), essentially focus on lowering glucagon levels and correcting this critical pathophysiological component in the multifactorial T2DM management strategies.
Glucagon-related advancements in diabetes therapy

Published: November 2023

Traditionally, treatment for type 2 diabetes (T2D) centered on the failure of insulin secretion from the beta cells of the pancreas and insulin resistance. Though effective in certain respects, these treatments are marred by multiple undesirable side effects. The discovery of the incretin defect and the role of glucagon in T2D shifted the focus to therapies that addressed not only the beta cell defect but also the alpha cell defect in the pancreas. Therapies addressing these defects, simultaneously, have switched the entire focus of T2D therapy by not only improving glycemic control but also reducing the risk of hypoglycemia and weight gain and improving outcomes. These newer modalities of treatment started off with dipeptidyl peptidase-4 inhibitors and glucagon-like peptide-1 receptor agonists (GLP1-RAs), and now further treatments in the form of twincretins (GLP1/GIP dual agonists) and triple agonists (GLP1/GIP/glucagon agonists) are unraveling. This article provides a summary of the evidence available with these newer antidiabetics, which address the glucagon defect in T2D.
Discrete symmetries of equations of dynamics with polynomial integrals of higher degrees
Authors: Kozlov Valery Vasil'evich
Published: November 2023

We consider systems with toric configuration space and
kinetic energy in the form of a "flat" Riemannian metric on the torus. The
potential energy $V$ is a smooth function on the configuration torus.
The dynamics of such systems is described by "natural" Hamiltonian systems
of differential equations. If $V$ is replaced by $\varepsilon V$, where $\varepsilon$ is a small parameter,
then the study of such Hamiltonian systems for small $\varepsilon$
is a part of the "main problem of dynamics" according to Poincaré.
We discuss the well-known conjecture on the existence of single-valued
momentum-polynomial integrals of motion equations:
if there is a momentum-polynomial integral of degree $m$, then
there exist a momentum-linear or momentum-quadratic integral.
This conjecture was verified in full generality for $m=3$ and $m=4$.
We study the cases of "higher" degrees $m=5$ and $m=6$. Similarly to the
theory of perturbations of Hamiltonian systems, we introduce resonance lines
on the momentum plane.
If a system admits a polynomial integral, then the number of these lines is finite.
The symmetries of the set of resonance lines are found, from which, in particular,
necessary conditions for integrability are derived.
Some new criteria for the existence of single-valued polynomial integrals are obtained.

Published: November 2023

The complication of diabetes, which is known as diabetic foot ulcer (DFU), is a significant concern due to its association with high rates of disability and mortality. It not only severely affects patients’ quality of life, but also imposes a substantial burden on the healthcare system. In spite of efforts made in clinical practice, treating DFU remains a challenging task. While mesenchymal stem cell (MSC) therapy has been extensively studied in treating DFU, the current efficacy of DFU healing using this method is still inadequate. However, in recent years, several MSCs-based drug delivery systems have emerged, which have shown to increase the efficacy of MSC therapy, especially in treating DFU. This review summarized the application of diverse MSCs-based drug delivery systems in treating DFU and suggested potential prospects for the future research.

Authors: Marshanda Wanda
Published: November 2023

Pembebasan Irian Barat adalah rangkaian peristiwa sejarah yang mencakup upaya diplomatik, politik, dan militer Indonesia untuk mendapatkan kendali penuh atas wilayah yang sebelumnya berada di bawah administrasi Belanda. Tulisan ni bertujuan untuk mengetahui strategi diplomasi, konfrontasi militer dan peran perjanjian New York serta Pepera yang dilakukan oleh Indonesia dalam pembebeasan irian Barat.  Metode penelitian yang digunakan dalam artikel ini adalah metode penelitian sejarah, yang terdiri dari pemilihan topik, heuristik atau pengumpulan sumber, kritik sumber, interpretasi, dan historiografi. Hasil penelitian ini adalah Selama periode Demokrasi Liberal sejumlah kabinet yang berkuasa di Indonesia terlibat dalam upaya diplomasi untuk mencapai tujuan pembebasan Irian Barat. Selain itu terdapat pula konfrontasi militer yang disebut dengan Trikora (Tri Komando Rakyat) yang mulai digaungkan pada tahun 1961. Meskipun sengketa tersebut melibatkan konfrontasi militer, pemerintah Indonesia juga menjalankan diplomasi melalui Perserikatan Bangsa-Bangsa (PBB), menghasilkan perjanjian New York pada 1962 dan Penentuan Pendapat Rakyat (Pepera) pada 1969. Hasil Pepera menunjukkan mayoritas penduduk Irian Barat mendukung bergabung dengan Indonesia. Secara simbolis, pemberian kedaulatan penuh Irian Barat kepada Indonesia terjadi pada tahun 1963 melalui pembentukan United Nations Temporary Executive Authority (UNTEA). Namun, langkah signifikan berikutnya menuju konsensus internasional terjadi pada tahun 1969, ketika PBB secara resmi mengakui hasil Pepera yang menegaskan bahwa Irian Barat akan tetap menjadi bagian integral dari Indonesia.

El estudio científico del apoyo social en México se ha visto limitado en su desarrollo, en parte debido a la falta de instrumentos específicos del contexto deportivo. Atendiendo a estas demandas de medición, el objetivo de esta investigación fue analizar la evidencia de validez y fiabilidad del Perceived Available Support in Sport Questionnaire (PASS-Q) en deportistas mexicanos. Participaron 991 deportistas (hombres = 66.3%) entre 12 y 32 años de edad (M = 17.22, DT = 2.83). Mediante el Análisis factorial confirmatorio se obtuvo suficiente evidencia de la validez de constructo. Los índices de bondad de ajuste del modelo tetrafactorial del PASS-Q fueron aceptables (χ2 = 474.949; χ2/df = 5.39; df = 88; p < .01; CFI = 0.96; TLI = 0.94; IFI = 0.96; RMSEA = 0.07). Las cargas factoriales estandarizadas resultaron estadísticamente significativas, superando el valor mínimo recomendado (λ = 0.40). En cuanto a la validez discriminante y concurrente, se encontró respaldo empírico a las correlaciones del PASS-Q con el ABQ y la SPSS. La fiabilidad fue alta con coeficientes alfa de Cronbach entre 0.81 y 0.84. El modelo tetrafactorial demostró invarianza configural, métrica y escalar en relación al género. El PASS-Q muestra adecuadas evidencias de validez y fiabilidad, recomendando su uso con deportistas mexicanos.

Abstract. The development of scientific research on social support in Mexico has been limited, partly due to the lack of specific instruments about the sports environment. In response to this measurement necessity, the present study aims to analyze the evidence of validity and reliability of the Perceived Available Support in Sport Questionnaire (PASS-Q) in Mexican athletes. The sample was composed of 991 athletes, with ages between 12 and 32 years. Through Confirmatory factor analysis, it was obtained enough evidence for construct validity. The adjustment indexes used to evaluate the PASS-Q four-factor model seem to fit well (χ2 = 474.949; fg = 88; p < .01; CFI = 0.96; TLI = 0.94; IFI = 0.96; RMSEA = 0.07). The standardized factor loadings were statistically significant, exceeding the minimum recommended value (λ = 0.40). Regarding discriminant and concurrent validity, empirical support was found for the correlations of the PASS-Q with the ABQ and the SPSS. The reliability was high with Cronbach's alpha coefficient ​​between 0.81 and 0.84. The tetrafactorial model demonstrated configural, metric and scalar invariance in relation to gender. The PASS-Q shows adequate psychometric properties and its use with Mexican athletes is recommended.

The article aims to investigate the effectiveness of the author's program “Correction of the Physical and Psychoemotional state of female students working with migrant children”, which combines psycho-training practical classes and training classes in health fitness. Materials and methods. The program includes psycho-training practical sessions to develop psychological well-being, stress resistance and psychological harmony, and health fitness training sessions to improve the body's functional state. The program integrates physical and psychological aspects of health. Forty-four female students of the 1st-2nd years of the Yuriy Fedkovich Chernivtsi National University of the Faculty of Physical Culture and Human Health took part in the pedagogical experiment. Results. We found that the program for correcting the physical and psycho-emotional state of female students, which included psycho-training practical classes and health fitness training classes, contributed to a decrease in the values of body weight, waist circumference, hip circumference and pelvic circumference (p<0.05; p<0.001). The results showed statistically significant differences (p<0.05; p<0.001) between the initial and final stages of the study. After using the developed program, we observed statistically significant changes (p < 0.05) in situational and personal anxiety levels. The percentage of female students with a high level of situational anxiety decreased from 27.3 % to 0.0 %, and the average level decreased from 54.5 % to 15.9 %. Personality anxiety also reduced from a high of 43.2 % to 0.0 %, and the intermediate level decreased from 54.5 % to 20.5 %. Conclusions. The results of our study confirm the effectiveness of the author's program “Correction of the physical and psycho-emotional state of female students working with migrant children” in improving the physical development, functional state of the cardiovascular and respiratory systems, and psychological well-being of the participants. The application of the program led to a decrease in anxiety, an improvement in body composition, a reduction in the volume of adipose tissue, and an increase in the adaptation capabilities of the body.

Body percussion and blues. A neuromotor approach through BAPNE method
Authors: Navarro Macia Victor , Romero Naranjo Francisco Javier
Published: November 2023

The blues is a musical genre originating in African-American communities that over time became one of the most important influences of popular music in the United States. Its didactic application in various educational contexts allows for many pedagogical uses, which is why the BAPNE method structures and teaches it in a novel way through Neuromotricity. Throughout the years, the learning process of blues and jazz music has been based mostly on imitation with the objective of acquiring knowledge and skills for its correct execution.  In this publication we creatively propose activities structured in a specific way to ensure the learning process through sequences that focus on the independence of the lower and upper limbs and the voice. For this reason, we offer in this article specific pedagogical resources to understand and work on the basics of this musical genre with multiple activities created from the 12-bar blues form based on coordination, dissociation and laterality processes among many other aspects.

Implicaciones para un entorno seguro de práctica físico deportiva de la jurisprudencia sobre acciden-tes con porterías de fútbol y canastas de baloncesto en España (Implications for a safe environment of physical and sports practice of the jurisprudence on accidents with soccer goals and basketball baskets in Spain)
Authors: Silva Piñeiro Roberto
Published: November 2023

Todos los años, aunque afortunadamente cada vez menos, se produce algún accidente relacionado con el equipamiento escolar y deportivo más habitual, con consecuencias en ocasiones fatales. Por la repercusión en la seguridad de todas las personas que realizan una práctica físico deportiva, es una cuestión que ha de revisarse continuamente. Se estudiaron las sentencias de daños entre 1995-2020 que implicasen una canasta de baloncesto o portería de fútbol o balonmano, y se encontraron 29 decisiones judiciales de diversos niveles, lo que representa más del 25% de los fallos en el ámbito educativo. La mayor parte de las condenas se relacionan con las canastas de los centros educativos, que son los que mayoritariamente cubren las indemnizaciones, junto con la administración autonómica. Entre la casuística habitual encontramos la falta de vigilancia, la ausencia de anclajes estructurales, o la mala praxis profesional; por lo que se sigue recomendando, reforzar la coordinación de seguridad entre entidades responsables, actualizar los protocolos de vigilancia, incorporar la formación en prevención como un elemento esencial y transversal a cualquier entidad educativa o deportiva, y procurar que la compra y mantenimiento del equipamiento pueda ser acreditado.

Abstract. Every year, although less and less, we come across some accident related to the most common school and sports equipment, with sometimes fatal consequences. Because of the repercussions on the safety of all those involved in physical exercise, this is an issue that needs to be continually reviewed. We looked at damage judgements between 1995-2020 involving a basketball hoop or football or handball goal, and found 29 court decisions at various levels, representing more than 25% of the judgements in the educational field. Most of the convictions are related to the baskets of the educational centres, which are the ones that mainly cover the compensation, together with the autonomous administration. Among the usual casuistry we find the lack of surveillance, the absence of structural anchors, or professional malpractice; therefore, it is still recommended to reinforce safety coordination between responsible entities, update surveillance protocols, incorporate prevention training as an essential and transversal element in any educational or sports entity, and ensure that the purchase and maintenance of equipment can be accredited.
