El ser humano a través del tiempo ha asumido un papel activo en relación con la comprensión, estudio, explotación y aprovechamiento de la naturaleza, sin embargo, a través de ciertos aportes filosóficos se ha dejado entrever la importancia inminente que cobra la naturaleza en cuento a la supervivencia humana, ello ajustado a los estudios que en Grecia desarrollaron tanto los filósofos presocráticos como Sócrates, Platón y Aristóteles, dejando un legado que a través de la ética configuraba una forma de vida ajustada a la virtud como modo de cuidar el ambiente por medio del conocimiento de sí y del cuidado de los otros. Legadoque actualmente ha desaparecido por el influjo de procesos culturales tales como el imperialismo, la industrialización y el capitalismo, con los cuales se ha proliferado un consumo excesivo y una forma de vida insaciable en relación con el deseo de poseer. En este sentido, el problema del medio ambiente que ocupa al hombre actual, entendido como un ser en el mundo, lo han llevado a cuestionarse en relación con su forma actual de vivir y, sobre todo, con las decisiones que debe tomar para que volviendo a la ética como fuente de cuidado procure garantizar una mejor calidad de vida y una relación armónica con el ambiente, con lacual se pueda garantizar un desarrollo sostenible en la tierra.ABSTRACT: The human being through time has assumed an active role in relation to the understanding, study, exploitation and use of nature, however, through certain philosophical contributions, the imminent importance of nature in relation to human survival, this adjusted to the studies carried out in Greece by both the pre-Socratic philosophers and Socrates, Plato and Aristotle, leaving a legacy that goes through ethics configured a way of life adjusted to virtue as a way of caring for the environment through knowledge of himself and the care of others. Legacy that currently has disappeared due to the influence of cultural processes, tales such as imperialism, industrialization, capitalism, with which excessive consumption and an insatiable way of life have proliferated in relation to the desire to possess. In this sense, the problem of the environment that occupies the current man, understood as a being in the world, has led him to question himself in relation to his current way of living and, above all, with the decisions he must make so that he can return to ethics as a source of care, seek to obtain a better quality of life and a harmonious relationship with the environment, with the quality of which sustainable development can be obtained on earth.

Modern Era

The world has undergone a change from ancient to modern. The enthusiasm among people to discover the undiscovered actually marked the beginning of the modern era and the advent of globalisation can be viewed as a bi-product of this modern civilisation. Globalisation was apparently meant to enhance cooperation among nations as partners in trade, but, gradually with better exposure to each other's culture, people started embracing the global ideas, habits, and way of life. Globalisation is therefore not just the integration of economies and markets, but it is also the integration of cultures and understandings, making people aware of their rights and role to be played in transforming the society for better. Thus, globalisation can rightly be called as the source of modern human rights, as it has no doubt played an active role in preserving and protecting Human Rights by technological expansion, increasing neo-liberal values, establishing certain super-national institutions and by promoting and maintaining civil liberties that uphold freedom, transparency, and popular participation.

The Difference

Despite the great popularity of fitness around the world, it is still unclear what fitness is and how people understand it. The essence of fitness has gradually evolved from simple physical fitness to a cultural phenomenon. The second path of fitness development is from the physical health of a person reflected in a person’s readiness to do physical work to the desire to improve their own quality of life. That is why the aim of this study was to investigate in depth the essential characteristics of the fitness concept and the area of fitness. The study is based on 41 literature sources and scientific articles, 8 of which are in Russian and 33 – in English. The essence of the content of the fitness concept has been investigated and the hierarchy of concepts has been evaluated in different theoretical contexts, starting from the historical beginning of the fitness concept. Definitions were grouped in a broader and a narrower sense: 1) fitness as a set of attributes and abilities and 2) fitness as a way of life, lifestyle and quality of life. The essential categories of the fitness concept were compiled. The change of fitness area and its influence on the society was discussed. By summarizing the analysis of fitness definitions and evaluating fitness according to various theoretical aspects, it can be concluded that fitness is interpreted as sport competition fitness, as an implementation of a healthy way of life and as physical fitness or health-oriented physical fitness. Due to constant change and improvement of the body ideal sometimes it is complicated to participate in the process of improving health, also achieving it requires a lot of energy and time. People don’t understand where is the difference between healthy body and fitness body prepared for competition or commercial. Therefore the greater the beauty industry and fitness area becomes, the weaker becomes the human.

O objetivo deste estudo foi identificar e analisar as produções científicas nacionais sobre envelhecimento entre 1987 e 2009. É uma revisão integrativa da literatura realizada por busca ativa na Biblioteca Virtual de Saúde (BVS). Foram identificadas e analisadas 14 produções. Após análise, emergiram duas categorias: dados demográficos e resultados em evidência. Constatou-se que o envelhecimento, por seu caráter multidimensional, faz com que o entendimento pelos profissionais seja tarefa obrigatória nas discussões, e ser idoso não significa necessariamente um aumento da qualidade de vida, principalmente nos países de terceiro mundo, devido ao processo das lentas políticas públicas de saúde.Descritores: Envelhecimento, Saúde do Idoso, Transição Epidemiológica, Transição Demográfica.Epidemiological picture of the aging process in the world, and Piaui, Brazil: evidence from the literature from 1987 to 2009The objective of this study was to identify and analyze the national scientific production on aging from 1987 to 2009. It is an integrative literature review, carried out by active search in the Virtual Health Library (VHL). It was identified and analyzed 14 productions.

Sobre Todo

La calidad de vida es un referente para evaluar las necesidades de los/las adolescentes y para analizar los factores personales que pueden interferir en las oportunidades, espacios y recursos de los que disponen para mejorar sus condiciones vitales y su satisfacción con la vida. Dicha evaluación permite analizar los resultados de la educación inclusiva y encaminar las acciones hacia su mejora. El objetivo de este estudio se centra en analizar la calidad de vida de 2220 estudiantes (12-19 años) con Necesidades Específicas de Apoyo Educativo (NEAE) y sin ellas, mediante el Cuestionario de Evaluación de la Calidad de Vida de Alumnos adolescentes. Se emplea una metodología descriptivo-comparativa, con diseño no experimental. Se analiza el constructo de calidad de vida y sus dimensiones, atendiendo a las diferencias por sexo, edad y presencia/ausencia de NEAE. Los resultados revelan un nivel adecuado de calidad de vida, inferior en alumnado con NEAE, sobre todo en inclusión y derechos; existen diferencias en función del sexo y edad, con mejores resultados en bienestar emocional y físico en mujeres y en derechos en varones, así como mejores resultados a nivel general en los/las adolescentes más jóvenes. Se observa concordancia de estos resultados con estudios previos, y se sugiere la necesidad de repensar las prácticas educativas inclusivas desde la perspectiva de la calidad de vida, atendiendo especialmente a la mejora de los mecanismos de participación, a las relaciones entre iguales, a la toma de decisiones y a los apoyos necesarios para facilitar sus interacciones y para el reconocimiento de sus derechos.

Education Model

Efforts to improve the quality of education in Indonesia have long been carried out. Improving the quality of education is one of the development priorities in the field of education. Seeing these conditions, the world of education must be able to play an active role in preparing educated human resources who are able to face the challenges of life both locally, regionally, nationally and internationally. It is not enough to master theories, but also be willing and able to apply them in social life. Not only able to apply knowledge in primary, secondary and tertiary education, but also able to solve various problems encountered in everyday life. Entrepreneurial education is education that applies principles and methodologies towards the formation of life skills for students through an integrated curriculum developed in schools. This paper tries to offer an entrepreneurial insight education model for pre-school level and primary school. With this model, if it is implemented, it is expected that the world of education will contribute significantly to improving the quality of human resources in Indonesia. The framework of entrepreneurship development among educators is felt to be very important. Because educators are 'agents of change' who are expected to be able to instill the characteristics, nature and character as well as the spirit of entrepreneurship or the soul of 'entrepreneur' for their students. Besides that the spirit of 'entrepreneur' is also very necessary for an educator, because through this soul, educators will have a work orientation that is more efficient, creative, innovative, productive and independent.

Resumen: La enfermedad de Parkinson ocupa el segundo lugar de las enfermedades neurodegenerativas más comunes en el mundo. La sarcopenia se caracteriza por dinapenia y en los adultos mayores con diagnóstico de enfermedad de Parkinson acelera su progresión. El objetivo de la presente revisión es describir el estado sarcopénico y la importancia de su prevención en los adultos mayores con enfermedad de Parkinson, así como ofrecer una revisión de las medidas de prevención primaria, secundaria y terciaria pertinentes para su abordaje. Si bien  el deterioro y la gravedad de la enfermedad de Parkinson se relaciona directamente con el estado sarcopénico del paciente mediante el abordaje disciplinario, la medicina preventiva puede favorecer la calidad de vida de los pacientes mediante medidas de promoción, diagnóstico oportuno, tratamiento farmacológico y no farmacológico y limitación de la progresión de la sarcopenia.Abstract: Parkinson's disease ranks second among the most common neurodegenerative diseases in the world. Sarcopenia is characterized by dynapenia and in older adults diagnosed with Parkinson's disease accelerates its progression. The objective of the present review is to describe the sarcopenic state and the importance of its prevention in older adults with Parkinson's disease, as well as to offer a review of primary prevention measures, secondary and tertiary relevant to its approach. Although the deterioration and severity of Parkinson's disease is directly related to the sarcopenic state of the patient through the disciplinary approach, preventive medicine can favor the quality of life of patients through promotional measures, timely diagnosis, pharmacological treatment and not pharmacological and limiting the progression of sarcopenia.

One of the best ways to evaluate persons’ health quality is through measuring their Quality of Life (QoL). The QoL concept gained rapid popularity over the last four decades in assessing health. It has been used as the sole endpoint in studies designed specifically to develop a positive physical or mental well-being of sick people. The purpose of this review is to address the needs of a new Islam-specific health-related QoL instruments for Muslim patients. A literature search was conducted using electronic databases. For the purpose of the review, QoL domains from WHOQOL SRPB instrument was referred. The identified QoL instruments were then reviewed for their domains and dimensions included in it. At present, there is no specific QoL instrument to assess health-related QoL among Muslim patients’ despite being fastest-growing religion and contribute 23% of the world population. Muslims believes that Islam is a comprehensive way of life which puts religiosity and spirituality as an essential part of life. In addition, QoL is regarded as an important aspect in health care by the World Health Organization (WHO) and spiritual well-being is one of the WHO QoL dimensions. To date, no instrument has been developed to measure QoL specifically according to Islamic perspective. Hence a specific assessment tool of health-related QoL for this growing world population is highly needed. Islam is not only a religion but it’s a way of life and QoL should be beyond the religion perspectives. Therefore, this paper will present the gap found in the review of the existing QoL instruments. Identifying this gap will enable us to develop a tool which is more sensitive to the Muslim population.

Estudios previos sobre la vida en los centros penitenciarios españoles han tendido a hablar de ‘la’ prisión como una institución con condiciones de encarcelamiento uniformes. Sin embargo, la literatura internacional sugiere que la privación de libertad puede experimentarse de forma muy distinta según el centro penitenciario donde se cumpla condena. Esta investigación analiza si existen distintos tipos de prisión en España, a qué factores son debidas dichas diferencias, cuáles son más relevantes y cuáles son sus implicaciones. Con esta finalidad, hemos administrado el cuestionario Measuring Quality of Prison Life a quinientos presos en cuatro centros penitenciarios de Barcelona. Los resultados de nuestro estudio muestran que la calidad de vida difiere significativamente entre las prisiones analizadas. Estas diferencias, que conllevan importantes consecuencias para las personas presas, no obedecen en exclusiva al historial del interno, sino también, o sobre todo, a la organización del centro y al sistema de relaciones interpersonales existente.
