“…Al respecto, la edad media de la población de este estudio fue similar a la reportada previamente por otros au-tores (10,(12)(13)(14)(15)(16)(17)(18)(19), quienes refieren edades aproximadas a los 55 años. Empero, la proporción de pacientes de sexo femenino encontrada en este estudio fue menor a la de dichos estudios, posiblemente por los distintos perfiles de población, ya que las referencias en cuestión aluden a población general con diabetes, mientras que en este estudio sólo se trabajó con extrabajadores pensionados por complicaciones crónicas, en tanto que se ha demostrado que el sexo femenino tiende a tener una mejor adherencia a los tratamientos médicos respecto al sexo masculino (16)(17)(18)(19).…”

“…Las características familiares, laborales y clínicas de la muestra estudiada, sólo son representativas del grupo al que pertenecen, en virtud de que, ninguno de los estudios consultados (10,(12)(13)(14)(15)(16)(17)(18)(19) ha explorado la APES en población pensionada por complicaciones de diabetes, como ya se ha hecho notar anteriormente, por lo que no serán analizadas a la luz de la literatura en cuestión. No obstante, es importante comentar que, se trató de una muestra cuyo perfil consiste en personas con un estado civil casado, cohabitación familiar, una larga vida laboral, pensión con ingresos modestos, proporcionales a sus puestos de trabajo como obreros, con escaso tiempo pensionados, que no podrán reintegrarse a una vida laboral, que tienen una larga evolución de su enfermedad, y que se han visto afectados principalmente por complicaciones microvasculares de la diabetes.…”

“…Finalmente, se encontró asociación estadísticamente significativa entre la mala APES con una vida laboral igual o menor a 30 años, edad menor de 54 años y la presencia de insuficiencia renal crónica como complicación, lo que constituye un hallazgo de la presente investigación, en virtud de que los reportes prexistentes (10,(12)(13)(14)(15)(16)(17)(18)(19)(20)(21)(22) no describen un resultado similar en otras poblaciones ♦ Conflictos de intereses: Ninguno.…”

Objetivo Evaluar la autopercepción del estado de salud (APES) de los pensionados por complicaciones de la diabetes mellitus, y que características sociodemográficas, familiares, laborales y clínicas de éstos están asociadas a dichas variables.Métodos Estudio transversal analítico en un universo 240 pensionados que aceptaron participar. Se evaluó la APES con el Cuestionario EuroQol-5D en español, y se incluyeron variables sociodemográficas, familiares, laborales y clínicas.Resultados Se estudiaron 240 pensionados con edad media 53,43 ± 8,16 años, 94,3% masculinos y 5,7% femeninos. Se encontró que el 53,4% refiere una APES regular, mala o muy mala. Se halló asociación significativa entre mala APES y vida laboral ≤30 años OR=6,00 (IC95% 1,27, 28,26) e insuficiencia renal crónica OR=7,00 (IC95% 1,39,35,35). No se encontraron modelos explicativos mediante regresión logística.Conclusiones La frecuencia de APES mala fue elevada en la muestra de pensionados por complicaciones de la diabetes mellitus. Se requieren estudios con muestras más amplias para mejores conclusiones.

“…The perception of supposed safety at a school designated to be "peanut-free" carries the risk for those affected that everyday situations both outside and inside the school are misjudged due to an altered risk assessment [3,4]: "handing over responsibility to the school" can lead to greater anxiety in situations outside the school, especially when the affected child needs to fend for itself. It carries the risk of deprivation of the allergic child outside the school setting: no sports clubs (since these are not peanut-free), no children's choir, and, ultimately, stagnation in their development of social interaction, including the ability to take responsibility and develop self-respect for oneself.…”

Is the concept of “peanut-free schools” useful in the routine management of peanut-allergic children at risk of anaphylaxis?

Summary Background Parents of school-age children with food allergies and potential anaphylactic reactions want their children to have an unburdened and risk-free everyday school life. Thus, particularly in the case of peanut allergy, demands for peanut-free schools are put forward. Results and discussion The position paper of the food allergy working group of the German Society for Allergology and Clinical Immunology (Deutsche Gesellschaft für Allergologie und klinische Immunologie) highlights why the concept of peanut-free schools does not protect peanut allergic children, but rather bears potential disadvantages and risks for all those involved. The focus on peanut as a potential trigger of anaphylactic reactions ignores other relevant triggers. Conclusion In order to address the fears and concerns of patients, parents, and school staff, it is mandatory to develop various coping strategies. These should enable and ensure the safety and participation of food-allergic pupils in classes and other school activities. Therefore, it is important to implement adequate measures for allergen avoidance and emergency treatment for students with confirmed food allergies.

“…Food-related risks are perceived by people as something opposite to "quality" and "controllability", and here "quality" is associated with food being "fresh" and "manufactured locally", and "controllability" means that there are formal signs proving it has been "checked" by official institutions (tags, labels, any notifications a product conforms to quality standards) [20]. Consequently, various social (social-demographic, social-occupational, and territorial) groups give different charac-teristics of a risk, and situations perceived as safe ones can actually be rather risky [21]. A perception of genetically modified food products by population and experts is a very good example.…”

The authors highlight that contemporary social and economic processes require development of a new paradigm for discussing human health risks caused by food products distribution (risk-communications). Today such a model is replaced with a "prototype" of risk-communication, or simple informing. And as there is no "feedback" from risk recipients, it is impossible to adequately adjust information flows or assess their efficiency. Consequently, risks tend to be underestimated or aggravated by consumers. Working our decisions on managing risks and plans how to implement them are to be solved jointly by experts, authorities, and population.It is shown that there are some basic ways to build up an efficient risk-communications system in the sphere of food products safety; to do that, we need to achieve greater information activity and interest of population in issues related to products quality and safety; to form a stable attitude towards self-preserving behavior among people; to improve a state system for interaction between all the concerned parties on issues related to population health and food products safety. It is extremely important to fully use channels for information dissemination that are in demand by a target audience (for example, active application of social media) and to created conditions for public discussions about risks. Tactical tasks are methodical guidance on forms and means of providing information about health risks as they are to be relevant for a target audience. Expert community involvement into a constructive risk dialogue is a significant tool for increasing riskcommunications efficiency. As population tends to trust scientists, experts, and doctors more than public persons, representatives from these expert groups are to play a significant social role in a system of efficient risk-communications.

Green, Yellow, and Red risk perception in everyday life – a communication tool

Abstract: Young adults with peanut allergy face challenges when moving from the safe home with ready assistance if needed, to independence with unpredictable surroundings and less certain help. Perceived 'safe' situations may in fact be the riskiest, as patients often do not take the EAI with them.
