Giant cell arteritis (GCA) is vascular inflammatory disease frequently involving large and medium sized arteries. GCA pathogenesis is not completely characterized, although there is a well accepted general model based on ...
Chivite Araiz, Íñigo (Date of defense: 2020-01-24)
Blood vessels distribute nutrients and oxygen to every single cell in the body. Endothelial cells define the vessel wall, and thus they are ideally located to crucially modulate nutrient availability and act as metabolic ...
Cabrerizo Granados, David (Date of defense: 2020-11-30)
Snail1 is a transcriptional factor with a great relevance in tumor development as it is required for epithelial to mesenchymal transition and activation of cancer-associated fibroblasts (CAF). In this thesis, we reported ...
Morales, Hernán G. (Date of defense: 2012-09-28)
Nowadays, most popular therapies for cerebral aneurysms are clipping and coiling. Nonetheless, it is not easy to elucidate which therapeutic option is the most suitable and reliable for a patient-specific aneurysm. To face ...
Domingo Salazar, Carlos (Date of defense: 2016-04-07)
In this thesis, we study different variants of Rubio de Francia’s extrapolation that allow us to obtain estimates near L1. This theory is subsequently applied to deduce enpoint boundedness for the Bochner-Riesz operator ...
Roca Rodríguez, Emma (Date of defense: 2019-12-16)
Participation in marathons and ultra-endurance races is growing every day, but it is worrisome that these types of races are becoming mass events, where many runners are not sufficiently prepared. For example, in the 2017 ...
