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 ...
Childhood obesity is one of the most important public health problems and is associated with cardiometabolic risk factors (CMR). Low-grade inflammation plays a prominent role in the development of cardiometabolic alterations ...
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 ...
Non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) has become the leading cause of chronic liver disease worldwide, involving a spectrum of disturbances mainly characterized by fatty acid infiltration and fat deposition in the liver ...
Multiple sclerosis (MS) is considered a chronic inflammatory and neurodegenerative disease, characterized by the existence of demyelinated areas in the central nervous system, infiltration of inflammatory cells in the ...
We studied the relationship between the circulating levels of the innate immune system molecules (α-defensins and BPI) and the acquired immune system (IgG, IgA and IgM) with obesity and cardiometabolic risk factors in ...
The objective of this thesis is to explore in greater depth the process of creating a public health observatory and the processing of the information needed to take territorial decisions in the county of Alt Empordà. The ...
Huntington’s disease (HD) is a neurodegenerative genetic disorder with no effective treatment characterized by motor discoordination, deficits in cognitive function (acquiring new knowledges, memory, understanding…), and ...
Hydrogen sulfide (H2S), regarded as the third gasotransmitter, plays diverse physiological and pathological roles in the body along with another two gasotransmitters, including nitric oxide (NO) and carbon monoxide (CO). ...
Huntington's disease (MH) is a progressive neurodegenerative disorder characterized by a motor dysfunction, cognitive impairment, and psychiatric symptoms. At neuropathological level, it has been described that cognitive ...
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 ...
PURPOSE: To determine the role of MRI and MR spectroscopy (MRSI) in the diagnosis of infertility. To stablish normal values of the metabolites involved in the spermatogenesis (choline, creatine, and lipids) and to quantify ...
Electronic Health Record are legal documents where all the bio-psycho-social information of care received by the healthcare system is recorded throughout their lives. The first causes of death in Spain are cardiovascular ...
Urinary incontinence (UI) is a dysfunction that has a very negative impact on the quality of life of women who suffer from it (low self-esteem, shame, restriction of social contacts, etc.). Different factors involved in ...
