Clinical significance of indeterminate quantiFERON-TB Gold plus assay results in hospitalized COVID-19 patients with severe hyperinflammatory syndrome
(MDPI, 2021)
Performance of the QuantiFERON-TB Gold Plus (QFT-Plus) assay could be affected by conditions of immune dysregulation. Little is known about the reliability of QTF-Plus in COVID-19 patients. Our aim was ...
Who smokes in Europe? Data from 12 european countriesin the TackSHS survey (2017–2018)
(Japan Epidemiological Association, 2021)
Background: Population data on tobacco use and its determinants require continuous monitoring and careful inter-country comparison. We aimed to provide the most up-to-date estimates on tobacco smoking ...
Refractive changes of a new asymmetric intracorneal ring segment with variable thickness and base width: a 2D finite-element model
(Public Library of Science, 2021)
Purpose: To evaluate the local geometric effects of a unilateral intrastromal ring segment with a combined variation of ring thickness and base width in a finite element simulation, and to compare it ...
Polyphosphate degradation by Nudt3-Zn2+ mediates oxidative stress response
(Elsevier, 2021)
Polyphosphate (polyP) is a polymer of hundreds of phosphate residues present in all organisms. In mammals, polyP is involved in crucial physiological processes, including coagulation, inflammation, and ...
Development of a common scale for measuring healthy ageing across the world: results from the ATHLOS consortium
(Oxford University Press, 2021-06)
Background: Research efforts to measure the concept of healthy ageing have been diverse and limited to specific populations. This diversity limits the potential to compare healthy ageing across countries ...
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. ...
Physicochemical properties of lipoproteins assessed by nuclear magnetic resonance as a predictor of premature cardiovascular disease. PRESARV-SEA study
(MDPI, 2021)
Some lipoprotein disorders related to the residual risk of premature cardiovascular disease (PCVD) are not detected by the conventional lipid profile. In this case-control study, the predictive power ...

Introducción: La enfermedad neumocócica invasiva (ENI) es la infección bacteriana más relevante en niños pequeños y la introducción de las vacunas antineumocócicas conjugadas (VNC) ha cambiado su ...
Daptomycin plus fosfomycin versus daptomycin alone for methicillin-resistant staphylococcus aureus bacteremia and endocarditis: a randomized clinical trial
(Oxford University Press, 2020)
Background: We aimed to determine whether daptomycin plus fosfomycin provides higher treatment success than daptomycin alone for methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA) bacteremia and ...
Machine learning risk prediction of mortality for patients undergoing surgery with perioperative SARS-CoV-2: the COVIDSurg mortality score
(Oxford University Press, 2021)
Since the beginning of the COVID-19 pandemic tens of millions of operations have been cancelled1 as a result of excessive postoperative pulmonary complications (51.2 per cent) and mortality rates (23.8 ...
