Interexaminer reliability and validity of quantity of cervical mobility during online dynamic inspection
(MDPI, 2022)
Background: Physical therapists routinely measure range of motion (ROM) of cervical spine. The reliability of the cervical range of motion (CROM) device has been demonstrated in several studies, but ...
Study on balance and postural control sccording to the stabilometry in indoor skydivers: a cross-sectional study
(MDPI, 2023)
Background: The wind tunnel is a compression cabin through which a stream of air rises homogeneously, generated by fans. To perform different acrobatics, indoor skydivers have to change their body ...
Modeling cell adhesion and proliferation: a cellular-automata based approach
(Springer Nature, 2015)
Background: Cell adhesion is a process that involves the interaction between the cell membrane and another surface, either a cell or a substrate. Unlike experimental tests, computer models can simulate ...
Hereditary hyperferritinemia cataract syndrome: ferritin L gene and physiopathology behind the disease - report of new cases
(MDPI, 2021)
Hereditary hyperferritinemia-cataract syndrome (HHCS) is a rare disease characterized by high serum ferritin levels, congenital bilateral cataracts, and the absence of tissue iron overload. This disorder ...
Description of an ultrasound-guided transverse approach to the transversus thoracis plane block and evaluation of injectate spread in canine cadavers
(MDPI, 2021)
In humans, the aim of the transversus thoracis plane block is to desensitise the intercostal nerves running through this plane, providing analgesia to the anterior chest wall. Our objective was twofold: ...
New partners identified by mass spectrometry assay reveal functions of NCAM2 in neural cytoskeleton organization
(MDPI, 2021)
Neuronal cell adhesion molecule 2 (NCAM2) is a membrane protein with an important role in the morphological development of neurons. In the cortex and the hippocampus, NCAM2 is essential for proper ...
Correlation between physical performance and stabilometric parameters in older adults
(MDPI, 2022)
Background and Objectives: Falls are a common and serious threat to the health and independence of older adults. The decrease in functional capacity during aging means an increased risk of falls. To ...
Hormone-induced repression of genes requires BRG1-mediated H1.2 deposition at target promoters
(EMBO Press, 2016)
Eukaryotic gene regulation is associated with changes in chromatin compaction that modulate access to DNA regulatory sequences relevant for transcriptional activation or repression. Although much is ...
SURE editing: combining oligo-recombineering and programmable insertion/deletion of selection markers to efficiently edit the Mycoplasma pneumoniae genome
(Oxford University Press, 2022)
The development of advanced genetic tools is boosting microbial engineering which can potentially tackle wide-ranging challenges currently faced by our society. Here we present SURE editing, a ...
Global signalling network analysis of luminal T47D breast cancer cells in response to progesterone
(Frontiers Media, 2022)
Background: Breast cancer cells enter into the cell cycle following progestin exposure by the activation of signalling cascades involving a plethora of enzymes, transcription factors and co-factors that ...
