Implication between genetic variants from APOA5 and ZPR1 and NAFLD severity in patients with hypertriglyceridemia
(MDPI, 2021)
Background: Lipid metabolism disorders, especially hypertriglyceridemia (HTG), are risk factors for non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD). However, the association between genetic factors related ...
Population screening for hemochromatosis: a study in 5370 Spanish blood donors
(Elsevier, 2003)
Background/Aims: Hereditary hemochromatosis is associated with homozygosity for C282Y mutation in the HFE gene, elevated serum transferrin saturation and excess iron deposits throughout the body. We ...

Purpose: To evaluate the anatomical and functional results of pars plana vitrectomy in eyes with osteo-keratoprosthesis, who have suffered retinal detachment. Methods: An observational, retrospective ...
Current challenges for targeting brown fat thermogenesis to combat obesity
(Frontiers Media S.A., 2020-10-27)
Just over a decade has passed since metabolically active brown adipose tissue (BAT) was unequivocally identified in healthy adult humans. Since then, researchers have provided evidence of expression of ...
Synthesis and deposition of silver nanoparticles on cp Ti by laser ablation in open air for antibacterial effect in dental implants
(Elsevier, 2018-07-30)
Silver nanoparticles have been synthetized and deposited on cp Ti substrates in one-step process by the use of laser ablation in open air. The nanoparticles are produced by ablating Ag foil using two ...
Predicting patient-ventilator asynchronies with hidden markov models
(Springer Nature, 2018-12-04)
In mechanical ventilation, it is paramount to ensure the patient’s ventilatory demand is met while minimizing asynchronies. We aimed to develop a model to predict the likelihood of asynchronies occurring. ...
Haemochromatosis patients' research priorities: Towards an improved quality of life
(Wiley, 2023)
Background: Chronic diseases are associated with a range of functional and psychosocial consequences that can adversely affect patients' quality of life (QoL). Haemochromatosis (HC) is a genetically ...
Neonatal gastric perforation and non invasive mechanical ventilation
(Elsevier, 2022)
A path analysis model of self- vs. educational-context- regulation as combined predictors of well-being in spanish college students
(MDPI, 2022)
Previous literature has established the importance of personal and contextual factors in college students’ trajectories. Following the Self- vs. External-Regulation Behavior Theory (2021) and the 3P ...
Active school-based interventions to interrupt prolonged sitting improve daily physical activity: a systematic review and meta-analysis
(MDPI, 2022)
Background: Sedentary behavior (SB) is a negative routine for health, especially during advancing age. Promoting an active lifestyle and reducing SB is a global endeavor. The aim of this study was to ...
