Neonatal mastauxe (breast enlargement of the newborn)
(Journal of Respiratory Research, 2019-09)Neonatal Mastauxe (NM) represents a common, well known and physiologic condition that requires simple observation and parental reassurance. "Giant" NM (exceeding 3 cm of diameter) is an infrequent ... -
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 ... -
Effects of pomace olive oil-enriched diets on endothelial function of small mesenteric arteries from spontaneously hypertensive rats
(British Journal of Nutrition, 2009-11)Pomace olive oil (POM), an olive oil subproduct traditionally used in Spain, is a good source of minor components from the unsaponifiable fraction such as triterpenoids, mainly in the form of oleanolic ... -
Why methylene blue should be blacklisted in neonatology
(Journal of Respiratory Research, 2019)We here present a case of neonatal skin damage due to application of methylene blue (MB) on a newborn's skin. MB use should be completely eliminated in neonatal intensive care units and nurseries, because ... -
Emergency short-stay unit as an effective alternative to in-hospital admission for acute exacerbation of chronic heart failure
(International Journal of Clinical Medicine, 2014-10)Study Objective: To determine whether a new emergency department short-stay unit (EDSSU) was an effective alternative to conventional hospital units (HU) for acute exacerbation of chronic heart failure ... -
Impact of transcranial direct current stimulation on sustained attention in breast cancer survivors: evidence for feasibility, tolerability, and initial efficacy
(Brain Stimulation, 2020)Background: A significant subset of breast cancer survivors experience cognitive difficulties in attention and memory, which persist for years following treatment. Transcranial direct current stimulation ... -
Characterization of a novel HMG-CoA lyase enzyme with a dual location in endoplasmic reticulum and cytosol
(Journal of Lipid Research, 2012)A novel lyase activity enzyme is characterized for the first time: HMG-CoA lyase-like1 (er-cHL), which is a close homolog of mitochondrial HMG-CoA lyase (mHL). Initial data show that there are nine ... -
Ghrelin causes a decline in GABA release by reducing fatty acid oxidation in cortex
(Springer Nature, 2018)Lipid metabolism, specifically fatty acid oxidation (FAO) mediated by carnitine palmitoyltransferase (CPT) 1A, has been described to be an important actor of ghrelin action in hypothalamus. However, it ... -
Installing multifunctionality on titanium with RGD-decorated polyurethane-polyurea roxithromycin loaded nanoparticles: toward new osseointegrative therapies
(Advanced Healthcare Materials, 2015)A novel class of polyurethane-polyurea nanoparticles (PUUa NPs) to install multifunctionality on biomaterials is presented. Biofunctionalization of titanium with roxithromycin loaded RGD-decorated PUUa ... -
All-in-one trifunctional strategy: a cell adhesive, bacteriostatic and bactericidal coating for titanium implants
(Colloids and Surfaces B: Biointerfaces, 2018-09)Strategies to inhibit initial bacterial adhesion are extremely important to prevent infection on biomaterial surfaces. However, the simultaneous attraction of desired eukaryotic cells remains a challenge ... -
The influence of education on the access tochildhood immunization: the case of Spain
(BMC Public Health, 2018)Background: In order to enhance childhood vaccination uptake and the health consequences for the whole society, there is a need to study predictors that might help in understanding parents’ behaviour ... -
Long-term efficacy and effectiveness of abehavioural and community-basedexercise intervention (Urban Training) toincrease physical activity in patients withCOPD: a randomised controlled trial
(European Respiratory Journal, 2018)There is a need to increase and maintain physical activity in patients with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD). We assessed 12-month efficacy and effectiveness of the Urban Training intervention ... -
Long-term outcome of radiotherapy-induced taste dysfunction in head and neck cancer patients: a pilot study
(Journal of Dental Problems and Solutions, 2020)Aims: Taste dysfunction is a frequent complaint in head and neck cancer patients treated with Radiation Therapy (RT), which impairs nutritional support and affects quality of life. A prospective unicenter ... -
Proactive and systematic multidimensional needs assessment in patients with advanced cancer approaching palliative care: a study protocol
(BMJ Open, 2020)Introduction The benefits of palliative care rely on how healthcare professionals assess patients’ needs in the initial encounter/s; crucial to the design of a personalised therapeutic plan. However, ... -
Proteasomal-mediated degradation of AKAP150 accompanies AMPAR endocytosis during cLTD
(eNeuro, 2020-03-23)The number and function of synaptic AMPA receptors (AMPARs) tightly regulates excitatory synaptic transmission. Current evidence suggests that AMPARs are inserted into the postsynaptic membrane during ... -
Wear in two cases of ceramic on ceramic total hip arthroplasty after 30 years follow up
(Biomedical Journal of Scientific & Technical Research, 2018)Background: Ceramic-on-ceramic (CoC) bearings have been in use in total hip replacement (THR) for more than 40 years, with excellent long-term survivorship but concerns over the ceramic-on-ceramic ... -
Sensing of nutrients by CPT1C regulates late endosome/lysosome anterograde transport and axon growth
(eLife, 2019)Anterograde transport of late endosomes or lysosomes (LE/Lys) is crucial for proper axon growth. However, the role of energetic nutrients has been poorly explored. Malonyl-CoA is a precursor of fatty ... -
