Caracterització fenotípica dels bacteriòfags lítics d’Escherichia coli
Environmental bacteriophages are the most abundant and diverse biological entities in the biosphere and play a fundamental ecological role in controlling bacterial populations and biogeochemical cycles. This ...
Aplicació de la tècnica recombinase polymerase amplification (rpa) al diagnòstic de la malària: una revisió bibliogràfica
Malaria is a disease that mainly affects the African continent. It is transmitted by mosquitoes of the genus Anopheles and caused by protozoa of the genus Plasmodium, responsible for approximately 597,000 deaths ...
Origin-Independent Decomposition of the Static Polarizability
Real-space analysis tools afford additive and transferable contributions of atoms to molecular properties. In the case of the molecular (hyper)polarizabilities, the atomic contributions that have been derived so far include ...
Can Density Functional Theory Be Trusted for High-Order Electric Properties? The Case of Hydrogen-Bonded Complexes
This work reports on an extensive assessment of the performance of a wide palette of density functional approximations in predicting the (high-order) electric properties of hydrogen-bonded complexes. To this end, we compute ...
Habitats of Girona (Catalonia): urban landscape and Natura 2000 areas
The Girona urban landscape and Natura 2000 habitats map (1:10.000) was generated with data from photointerpretation and fieldwork. We mapped 118 CORINE habitats and identified 15 Habitats of Community Interest (which cover ...
Blue prescription for children with ADHD in coastal marine settings: design of a paediatric health intervention
Background: Attention-Deficit/Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD) is a prevalent neurodevelopmental condition associated with a high socioeconomic burden. While the current multimodal treatment is the gold standard, it presents ...
Temporal profile of soluble Toll-like receptor 4 in serum and its association with hematoma expansion in intracerebral hemorrhage: a retrospective study
Background and purpose: Intracerebral hemorrhage (ICH) is the most devastaing subtype of stroke, with poorly understood mechanisms and no effectve treatment. Hematoma expansion (HE) occurs in about one in five patents ...
Functional recovery after total hip arthroplasty versus ceramic-on-ceramic hip resurfacing arthroplasty in young patients with osteoarthritis
BACKGROUND: Hip osteoarthritis is a common degenerative disease that frequently affects active adults, most of the times requiring from conservative treatment until total hip arthroplasty when these fail. Nowadays still ...
Respostes funcionals dels cargols terrestres a dues dècades de canvis ambientals
This study analyses how vegetation cover and structure have influenced the functional diversity of terrestrial snails in the Serra de Collserola over the last two decades. Using LiDAR data and vegetation indices (NDVI ...
Assessing the structural effects of habitat on pinecone production and consumption : an integrated approach using remote sensing and vegetation indices to understand cone production and seed predation
This study aims to understand how environmental variables and the structural complexity of Mediterranean pine forests influence cone production and their consumption by squirrels (Sciurus vulgaris). To achieve ...
Qualitat fisicoquímica de l’aigua, contaminació microbiològica i resistència a antibiòtics a una zona rural del Senegal
Access to safe drinking water is a fundamental right and a key determinant of public health. The presence of pathogens in drinking water is associated with numerous infectious diseases, especially among vulnerable ...
Veinte años de cambio: evolución del hábitat y de la comunidad de caracoles en el Parque natural de la sierra de Collserola (2003–2023)
Soil fauna plays a fundamental role in the viability and functioning of ecosystems. In particular, terrestrial snails contribute significantly to the maintenance of biodiversity through the decomposition of organic ...
Estudi de la prevalença d’Escherichia coli adherent-invasiva (AIEC) en l’aigua residual de la ciutat de Girona
The adherent-invasive Escherichia coli (AIEC) pathotype is closely associated with inflammatory bowel diseases, such as Crohn’s disease. It is characterized by its ability to adhere and invade intestinal epithelial ...
Drivers of Invasion Success in Rugulopteryx okamurae: insights from Physiology, Genetics, and Herbivory
Rugulopteryx okamurae, an invasive macroalga from the northwestern Pacific, is rapidly expanding across southern European coastlines, raising serious ecological and socioeconomic disruption. Since its first ...
Efectes dels impactes agroforestals d’aclarida forestal i d’estassada sobre poblacions de papallones de l’àrea de mostreig del cbms
Agroforestry impacts have been highly prevalent in the Mediterranean Basin for centuries, shaping ecosystems and influencing both animal and plant communities. This study assesses the effects of agroforestry ...
The effect of meteorology on the singing rate of 13 common bird species
Birdsong is mainly used by birds to reproduce and defend their territory. Although the intensity of singing activity follows circadian rhythms, various factors can modify it, including weather conditions. The ...
Avaluació de miRNAs en plasma com a biomarcadors de resposta en pacients PACS amb deteriorament cognitiu
The post-acute COVID 19 syndrome, also described as PACS, affects 10-15% of people who have been infected by SARS-CoV-2. The current definition of PACS is the persistence or development of symptoms from the fourth ...
Adsorció de contaminants orgànics persistents en competència amb la matèria orgànica per millorar la reutilització de l’aigua
In recent years, due to climate change and increasing water scarcity, there has been a growing need to promote new technologies for the reuse and regeneration of treated wastewater in Wastewater Treatment Plants. ...
