“…En la muestra se encontró un alto nivel de incertidumbre, esperable si se considera que el cáncer significa un impacto negativo en lo personal y familiar, que interrumpe la armonía y genera gran desconcierto por lo que sucederá en el futuro (13). Cabe destacar que los cánceres que presentan mayor prevalencia en la muestra son el cáncer de mama en las mujeres y en el hombre lo constituye el cáncer de próstata, lo que se relaciona con las estadísticas nacionales que destacan estas patologías malignas (14).…”

RESUMENObjetivo: Determinar la relación entre las características sociodemográficas (SD) y el nivel de incertidumbre (NI) del adulto mayor (AM) con diagnóstico de cáncer. Material y método: Estudio cuantitativo, transversal, correlacional con una muestra no probabilística, de personas mayores de 60 años con diagnóstico de cáncer hospedadas en la Corporación Nacional del Cáncer (CONAC), Región de Valparaíso, Chile, por un período de 6 semanas. Para la recolección de datos se utilizó Escala de Evaluación de la Incertidumbre de Merle Mishel. Para el análisis estadístico descriptivo se utilizaron medidas de tendencia central y para el análisis de correlación se utilizaron los métodos de correlación de Pearson, análisis de varianza ANOVA y modelo de regresión lineal. Resultados: 54.8% de los adultos mayores presentan un alto NI. La escolaridad está correlacionada negativamente con el NI (R=0.54, p-valor=0.0492). Un 28.99% (R 2 ajustado, 35gl) de la varianza en el NI se explica por la escolaridad. No se encontró una correlación estadísticamente significativa con las otras características SD. Conclusión: Se confirma que la escolaridad está correlacionada con el NI, además se determina un modelo de regresión lineal que permite predecir el NI, basado en las características de escolaridad de los adultos mayores hospedados en CONAC.Palabras clave: Neoplasias, incertidumbre, anciano, enfermería oncológica. ABSTRACTObjective: To determine the relationship between the level of uncertainty and the sociodemographic characteristics in elderly diagnosed with cancer. Material and methods: Quantitative, cross-sectional correlational study, with a non-probabilistic sample of 60 elderly diagnosed with cancer. The study was conducted at the National Cancer Corporation, Region of Valparaíso, Chile for a period of 6 weeks. In order to collect the data the Mishel Uncertainty in Illness Scale (MUIS) was used. For the descriptive statistical analysis we used mean and central tendency measures and for the correlation analysis we used Pearson correlation, the ANOVA test and a lineal regression model. Results: 54.8% of elderly show a high uncertainty level. Educational level is negatively correlated with uncertainty (R=0.54, p-value=0.0492). 28.99% (adjusted R 2 , 35DF) of variation in uncertainty is explained as related to educational level. We did not find a significant correlation with other sociodemographic characteristics. Conclusion: It was confirmed that educational level is correlated with uncertainty level; a linear model to predict uncertainty level based on the educational level of elderly hosted by CONAC is also proposed.

Nowadays, the energy retrofit of the building sector is identified as a major instrument toward a climate-neutral Europe by 2050. In accordance with the European Renovation Wave program, deep energy renovations are needed, starting from public and less efficient buildings. Furthermore, the renovation of the social housing building stock is also an important response to energy poverty, as it could contribute safeguarding health and well-being of vulnerable citizens. In particular, buildings from the 1960–1980, which constitute a large portion of cities, often have high energy demand and low indoor comfort because most of them have been built before energy-efficiency regulations. In this context, the paper aims to propose a multi-objective approach toward energy renovation of the social housing building stock, by means of an innovative digital workflow. The objective functions are minimizing energy consumption, CO2 emissions, investment, and operational costs. Toward these contrasting objectives, numerous passive strategies are taken into account, which are compatible with the considered architecture. The optimal solutions are found by means of a genetic algorithm coupled with energy performance simulation software. The methodology is applied and verified on a significant and relevant case study, pertaining to the social housing building stock of Rome, Italy (Mediterranean climate). The outputs of the workflow are a set of optimal solutions among which to choose the fittest one depending on the need of the different stakeholders. The proposed multi-objective approach allows reducing the energy consumption for heating by 31% and for cooling by 17% and the CO2 emissions up to 27.4%. The proposed methodology supports designers and policymakers toward an effective building stock renovation, which can answer the urgent energy and environmental targets for the coming decades.
