Rapid molecular syndromic testing for aetiological diagnosis of gastrointestinal infections and targeted antimicrobial prescription: experience from a reference paediatric hospital in Spain
(Springer Nature, 2021)
Aetiological diagnosis of gastrointestinal infections is challenging since a wide range of bacteria, parasites and viruses can be causal agents and derived clinical manifestations appear quite similar. ...
Concentrations of nitrogen compounds are related to severe rhinovirus infection in infants. A time-series analysis from the reference area of a pediatric university hospital in Barcelona
(John Wiley & Sons, 2022)
Background: There is scarce information focused on the effect of weather conditions and air pollution on specific acute viral respiratory infections, such as rhinovirus (RV), with a wide clinical spectrum ...
Nanomedicine targeting brain lipid metabolism as a feasible approach for controlling the energy balance
(Royal Society of Chemistry, 2023)
Targeting brain lipid metabolism is a promising strategy to regulate the energy balance and fight metabolic diseases such as obesity. The development of stable platforms for selective delivery of drugs, ...
Modulation of macrophage response by copper and magnesium ions in combination with low concentrations of dexamethasone
(MDPI, 2022)
Macrophages have been deemed crucial for correct tissue regeneration, which is a complex process with multiple overlapping phases, including inflammation. Previous studies have suggested that divalent ...
Current controversies in trichology: a European expert consensus statement
(John Wiley & Sons, 2021)

Foam rolling vs. proprioceptive neuromuscular facilitation stretching in the hamstring flexibility of amateur athletes: control trials
(MDPI, 2023)
Background: the use of stretching techniques in the sports world is frequent and common thanks to their many effects. One of the main benefits of stretching is an increased range of motion (ROM). Recently, ...
Functional signatures of ex-vivo dental caries onset
(Taylor & Francis Group, 2022)
Background: The etiology of dental caries remains poorly understood. With the advent of next-generation sequencing, a number of studies have focused on the microbial ecology of the disease. However, ...
Fabrication and deposition of copper and copper oxide nanoparticles by laser ablation in open air
(MDPI, 2020-02-10)
The proximity of the “post-antibiotic era”, where infections and minor injuries could be a cause of death, there are urges to seek an alternative for the cure of infectious diseases. Copper nanoparticles ...
Implantation of CPT1AM-expressing adipocytes reduces obesity and glucose intolerance in mice
(Elsevier, 2023-05)
Obesity and its associated metabolic comorbidities are a rising global health and social issue, with novel therapeutic approaches urgently needed. Adipose tissue plays a key role in the regulation of ...
A radiographic and clinical comparison of immediate vs. early loading (4 weeks) of implants with a new thermo-chemically treated surface: a randomized clinical trial
(MDPI, 2021)
Background: Implant dentistry has evolved over time, resulting in better treatment outcomes for both patients and clinicians. The aim of this trial was to test whether the immediate loading of implants ...
