Porous titanium-hydroxyapatite composite coating obtained on titanium by cold gas spray with high bond strength for biomedical applications
(Colloids and Surfaces B: Biointerfaces, 2019-04-24)The lack of bioactivity of titanium (Ti) is one of the main drawbacks for its application in biomedical implants since it can considerable reduce its osseointegration capacities. One strategy to overcome ... -
The positive rhinovirus/enterovirus detection and SARS-CoV-2 persistence beyond the acute infection phase: an intra-household surveillance study
(Viruses, 2021)We aimed to assess the duration of nasopharyngeal severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) RNA persistence in adults self-confined at home after acute infection; and to identify the ... -
Post-activation performance enhancement after inclusion of opponent versus no opponent during isoinertial crossover step exercise: a randomized crossover trial
(International Journal of Sports Science & Coaching, 2021)This study sought to determine whether the inclusion of an opponent on an isoinertial crossover step task influenced the post-activation response and power production. Twenty adult male team-sports ... -
Potential vasorelaxant effects of oleanolic acid and erythrodiol, two triterpenoids contained in ‘orujo’ olive oil, on rat aorta
(British Journal of Nutrition, 2004)‘Orujo’ olive oil is obtained by chemical processes from the waste resulting from the mechanical extraction of virgin olive oil. The aim of the present study was to evaluate a new pharmacological property ... -
Practical aspects of modelling parameter uncertainty for risk capital calculation
(Zeitschrift fur die gesamte Versicherungswissenschaft, 2019)We assume that an insurance undertaking models its risk by a random variable X=X(¿0) with a fixed parameter (vector) ¿0. If the undertaking does not know ¿0 and can only estimate it from historical data, ... -
Pragmatic, open-label, single-center, randomized, phase II clinical trial to evaluate the efficacy and safety of methylprednisolone pulses and tacrolimus in patients with severe pneumonia secondary to COVID-19: the TACROVID trial protocol
(Contemporary Clinical Trials Communications, 2021-03)Introduction: Some COVID-19 patients evolve to severe lung injury and systemic hyperinflammatory syndrome triggered by both the coronavirus infection and the subsequent host-immune response. Accordingly, ... -
Precision and safety of ultrasound-guided versus palpation-guided needle placement on the patellar tendon: a cadaveric study
(Life, 2023)For decades, needling interventions have been performed based on manual palpation and anatomic knowledge. The increasing use of real-time ultrasonography in clinical practice has improved the accuracy ... -
