This work is a part of a more extensive project to study in depth a very important field, the standard of living of the elderly people and, mainly, those living in assisted residences. We believe is our duty try to analyse which are their worries and needs to provide them with a suitable response.We think that one factor that could make their standard of living better is to improve their relationship with the closer environment; but the reality and experience show that the usually used criteria in the elderly residences to organize assistance areas, don't take into account the old's preferences and opinions. So, we believe that a review of the used criteria is necessary to adapt the institutional dynamics to old people's needs and to improve their standard of living.The home called Residencia de Tercera Edad Mixta located in Almería, was waiting for a removal to a new building at the time we started this work. This situation offered a change to review the organizative system and adapt it to the new notion of integral attention in homes, considering it as the attention to elderly people's bio-psycho-social needs.

Early evaluation of characteristic metabolic heat patterns, registered by infrared imagenology AIP Conference Proceedings 1747, 080013 (2016) Corresponding author: sarahi.rogz@gmail.comAbstract. Parkinson's disease is the second neurodegenerative condition worldwide with more than 4.6 million cases. Positron Emission Tomography (PET) in combination with compartmental modeling (CM) has been used to improve clinical diagnosis by providing quantitative parameters for several neurological disorders. In this work, we implemented an acquisition protocol of dynamic images in two periods of time, with data acquired in the early and late postinjection times. We also assessed the graphical methods of Patlak and Logan [1,2] using a reference tissue model for Parkinsonian and atypical Parkinsonian patients to obtain the kinetic influx constant (Ki) and the distribution volume ratio (DVR). The results obtained here were consistent with previous studies and support the usefulness of these methods for medical diagnosis.

Introduction: Sleep is defined as the natural, periodic and reversible decrease in perception of the external environment, with the preservation of a certain degree of reactivity to the environment and autonomous functions. Sleep consists of 2 phases, REM phase and NREM phase, these phases alternate at night in the form of five to six cycles; of which the NREM phase is 75% presented and the REM by 25%.Thertita mark: Caffeine is a readily available short-acting stimulant that has been shown to reduce some of the deficits associated with sleep loss. With the rubber mark the absorption is carried out on the oral mucosa, which generates a greater bioavailability of the active substance and an immediate mechanism of action. The effective response dose can range from 100 mg to 200 mg and the effect arises from 6 min of administered the active substance. It is important to note that the dose of caffeine in chewing gum is directly proportional to the effects on sleep inertia, as well as the duration and maintenance of them.Discussion: Being able to analyze the mechanisms of action of caffeine on sleep inertia, helps us to make a comparison of chewing gum with caffeine vs placebo (simple gum). Chewing generates for a short period of time the maintenance of performance on simple and complex tasks and improves alertness, with caffeine these same effects look prolonged for longer. Conclusion:Caffeinated gum is an effective therapeutic presentation on sleep inertia. The dosage for a positive response ranges from 75 to 200 mg depending on the circumstances of sleep restriction. That is, thanks to the effects generated by chewing on the state of alertness and cognition and the potentialization and duration of them by caffeine.
