Heavy metals exposure levels and their correlation with different clinical forms of fetal growth restriction
BACKGROUND: Prenatal heavy metals exposure has shown a negative impact on birth weight. However, their influence on different clinical forms of fetal smallness was never assessed. OBJECTIVES: To investigate whether there ...
The different manifestations of COVID-19 in adults and children: a cohort study in an intensive care unit
Background: The severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) has collapsed health systems worldwide. In adults, the virus causes severe acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS), while in children the ...
A serum microRNA signature associated with complete remission and progression after autologous stem-cell transplantation in patients with multiple myeloma
We have examined serum microRNA expression in multiple myeloma (MM) patients at diagnosis and at complete response (CR) after autologous stem-cell transplantation (ASCT), in patients with stable monoclonal gammopathy of ...
Impact of the COVID-19 Pandemic on Maternal Well-Being during Pregnancy
The outbreak of a pandemic has negative psychological effects. We aimed to determine the impact of the SARS-CoV-2 pandemic during pregnancy and identify the risk factors for maternal well-being. A multicenter, prospective, ...
The expression level of BAALC-associated microRNA miR-3151 is an independent prognostic factor in younger patients with cytogenetic intermediate-risk acute myeloid leukemia
Acute myeloid leukemia (AML) is a heterogeneous disease whose prognosis is mainly related to the biological risk conferred by cytogenetics and molecular profiling. In elderly patients (>= 60 years) with normal karyotype ...
Treating genitourinary syndrome of menopause in breast cancer survivors: main challenges and promising strategies
Many breast cancer survivors (BCS) suffer the consequences of antineoplastic treatments that induce a hypoestrogenic state, leading to chronic climacteric symptoms such as genitourinary syndrome of menopause (GSM), arousing ...
New generation of three-dimensional tools to learn anatomy
We present a new generation tool based of interactive 3D models. This models are based on the radiological two-dimensional images by computed tomography imaging. Our article focuses on the anatomical region of the skull ...
Intent de valoració objectiva de la via transhumeral en l'exploració selectiva arteriogràfica del ronyò: conclusions després de setanta casos
Des del 1928, data en que R. Dos Santos, Lamas i Caldas col·locaren per primera vegada una substància radioopaca dins l'aorta abdominal, per punció directa, i obtingueren la primera aortografia, molts camins nous s'han ...
Semaphorin-3F/Neuropilin-2 Transcriptional Expression as a Predictive Biomarker of Occult Lymph Node Metastases in HNSCC.
The expression of the semaphorin-3F (SEMA3F) and neuropilin-2 (NRP2) is involved in the regulation of lymphangiogenesis. The present study analyzes the relationship between the transcriptional expression of the SEMA3F-NRP2 ...
Prevalence of Psychoactive Substance Use During Pregnancy in Argentine Women: A Pilot Study Testing Maternal Hair
The use of psychoactive substances (PSs) during pregnancy is a major public health concern because of their increasing prevalence worldwide. This study examined the understudied issue of gestational PS consumption in a ...
Dlk1 expression relates to visceral fat expansion and insulin resistance in male and female rats with postnatal catch-up growth
Background: Although prenatal and postnatal programming of metabolic diseases in adulthood is well established, the mechanims underpinning metabolic programming are not. DLK1, a key regulator of fetal development, inhibits ...
Searching for the antioxidant, anti-inflammatory, and neuroprotective potential of natural food and nutritional supplements for ocular health in the mediterranean population.
Adherence to a healthy diet offers a valuable intervention to compete against the increasing cases of ocular diseases worldwide, such as dry eye disorders, myopia progression, cataracts, glaucoma, diabetic retinopathy, or ...
Screening of cervical cancer in Catalonia 2006-2012
The early detection of intraepithelial lesions of the cervix, through the periodic examination of cervical cells, has been fundamental for the prevention of invasive cervical cancer and its related mortality. In this report, ...
