Multidisciplinary management of cardiovascular disease in women: Delphi consensus
Frontiers (2024)Background: Current clinical guidelines on cardiovascular disease (CVD) do not specifically address the female population. The aim of this consensus is to know the opinion of a group of experts on the management of CVD ... -
Multimodular Bio-Inspired Organized Structures Guiding Long-Distance Axonal Regeneration
MDPI (2022-09)Axonal bundles or axonal tracts have an aligned and unidirectional architecture present in many neural structures with different lengths. When peripheral nerve injury (PNI), spinal cord injury (SCI), traumatic brain injury ... -
Multivariate Analysis of Water Quality Measurements on the Danube River
MDPI (2021-12-17)This study investigates the potential of using principal component analysis and other multivariate analysis techniques to evaluate water quality data gathered from natural watercourses. With this goal in mind, a comprehensive ... -
Musical aptitude and silent reading fluency in adult multilingual learners of Spanish: an exploratory study
Taylor and Francis Group (2022-02-10)Skilled adult readers are those who read fluently, but multilingual learners do not always exhibit the same reading proficiency in the different languages they know. Among the variables that influence learners’ silent ... -
Naltrexone Reverses Ethanol-Induced Rat Hippocampal and Serum Oxidative Damage
Hindawi Publishing Corporation (2013)Naltrexone, an antagonist of 𝜇�-opioid receptors, is clinically used as adjuvant therapy of alcohol dishabituation. The aim of the present work was to test the effect of 1 mg/kg body weight of naltrexone to revert oxidative ... -
Neoadjuvant Chemotherapy plus Interval Cytoreductive Surgery with or without Hyperthermic Intraperitoneal Chemotherapy (NIHIPEC) in the Treatment of Advanced Ovarian Cancer: A Multicentric Propensity Score Study
MDPI (2023-08-26)Simple Summary Advanced ovarian cancer (Stages III-IV) continues to be one of the gynecological tumors with the highest mortality. Standard treatment consists of debulking surgery and subsequent adjuvant chemotherapy. ... -
Neural activity patterns in the chemosensory network encoding vomeronasal and olfactory information in mice
Frontiers Media (2022)Rodents detect chemical information mainly through the olfactory and vomeronasal systems, which play complementary roles to orchestrate appropriate behavioral responses. To characterize the integration of chemosensory ... -
Neural Stem Cells as Potential Glioblastoma Cells of Origin
MDPI (2023)Glioblastoma multiforme (GBM) is the most malignant brain tumor in adults and it remains incurable. These tumors are very heterogeneous, resistant to cytotoxic therapies, and they show high rates of invasiveness. Therefore, ... -
Neurogenesis of medium spiny neurons in the nucleus accumbens continues into adulthood and is enhanced by pathological pain
Springer Nature (2021)In mammals, most adult neural stem cells (NSCs) are located in the ventricular–subventricular zone (V-SVZ) along the wall of the lateral ventricles and they are the source of olfactory bulb interneurons. Adult NSCs exhibit ... -
Neuroinflammation as a possible link between attention-deficit/ hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) and pain
ELSEVIER (2021)Attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) and pathological pain are two complex syndromes of multifactorial origin. Despite their prevalence and broad impacts, these conditions are seldom recognized and managed ... -
Neuronal Bioenergetics and Acute Mitochondrial Dysfunction: A Clue to Understanding the Central Nervous System Side Effects of Efavirenz
Oxford University Press (2014-05)Background. Neurological pathogenesis is associated with mitochondrial dysfunction and differences in neuronal/glial handling of oxygen and glucose. The main side effects attributed to efavirenz involve the CNS, but the ... -
New GOLD classification: longitudinal data on group assignment
BioMed Central (2014)Rationale: Little is known about the longitudinal changes associated with using the 2013 update of the multidimensional GOLD strategy for chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD). Objective: To determine the COPD ... -
New insights in primary ciliary dyskinesia
Taylor & Francis (2017)Introduction: Primary ciliary dyskinesia (PCD) is a rare genetic disease with an estimated prevalence of 1:20.000 births. It is characterized by abnormal motility of cilia, leading to impaired mucociliary clearance, and ... -
New neurons use Slit-Robo signaling to migrate through the glial meshwork and approach a lesion for functional regeneration
American Association for the Advancement of Science (2018)After brain injury, neural stem cell–derived neuronal precursors (neuroblasts) in the ventricular-subventricular zone migrate toward the lesion. However, the ability of the mammalian brain to regenerate neuronal ... -
Nigral degeneration correlates with persistent activation of cerebellar Purkinje cells in MPTP-treated monkeys
Universidad de Murcia (2012)In the present work we analyze the cerebellum of chronic parkinsonian monkeys in order to clarify whether chronic mesencephalic depletion is associated with long term activation of the cerebellar neurons in chronic ... -
Non-compliance and therapeutic inertia: two unanswered questions in clinical practice

Elsevier (2017-10)Background To compare the application of non-invasive ventilation (NIV) versus continuous positive airway pressure (CPAP) in the treatment of patients with cardiogenic pulmonary edema (CPE) admitted to an intensive care ... -
Non-neuronal cholinergic system contributes to corticosteroid resistance in chronic obstructive pulmonary disease patients
BioMed Central (2016)Background: Inhaled corticosteroid (ICS) with long-acting beta-2 agonists is a well-documented combination therapy for chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) based on its additive anti-inflammatory properties. By ... -
Noncovalent Peptide Stapling Using Alpha-Methyl-l-Phenylalanine for α-Helical Peptidomimetics
American Chemical Society (2023-08-20)Peptides and peptidomimetics are attractive drug candidates because of their high target specificity and low-toxicity profiles. Developing peptidomimetics using hydrocarbon (HC)-stapling or other stapling strategies has ... -
