The aim of this thesis was to identify transcriptional regulators involved in the modulation of ischaemia, as well as brain plasticity processes responsible for compensating the ischaemic lesions, in order to establish the ...
The protocol followed in this thesis is to indicate the EAC according to the NASCET criteria. Closure of the arteriotomy with patch. The criteria to indicate this have been based on an original method, which takes into ...
The thickness of epicartic fat can be directly measured by transthoracic echocardiography. Epicartic fat has recently been associated with the onset of atrial fibrillation (AF). In this work we will analyze the relationship ...
La evidencia científica sugiere que la enfermedad arteriosclerótica tiene su origen en edades tempranas de la vida y su progresión está determinada por la suma de factores de riesgo cardiovascular, como la obesidad o el ...
Despite notable advances in health promotion over the past decades, cardiovascular disease remains the leading cause of death worldwide, with obesity being a rising contributor of it. Cardiovascular risk factors appear in ...

The increase of elderly population in Spain is one of the most important challenges for their caregivers, healthcare professionals, and the society in general. The elderly population has the highest incidence rate of ...
Introduction and aims: In recent years, public access defibrillation programs have exponentially increased the availability of automatic external defibrillators in public spaces but there are no data on their performance ...
Brugada syndrome (BrS) is a cardiac electrical disease with high susceptibility to sudden cardiac death. Approximately 25-30% of BrS patients are explained by pathogenic variants in coding sequences of cardiac ion channels, ...
Sudden cardiac death (SCD) is defined as a natural and unexpected death due to cardiac etiology. In addition, when the cause of death remains unexplained after a complete autopsy, a cardiac arrhythmia is suspected as a ...
Risk of cerebral hypoperfusion during carotid endarterectomy arterial is the main limiting factor of this technique. Shunt allows partial maintenance of cerebral perfusion during clamping. We analyze the hemodynamic ...
The sodium channel β2 subunit is a component of the voltage-gated sodium channel (NaV), a large multimeric protein complex. In the heart, NaV is mainly composed of a pore-forming α subunit, NaV1.5, and two associated ...
