Understanding the evolution of wrist anatomy in fossil hominins is essential for reconstructing their locomotor behavior and manipulative capabilities. Traditionally, most studies have focused on bone morphology, overlooking ...
Age estimation is a prerequisite for human identification. Within the skeletal framework, pelvic acetabular variables constitute a promising age marker. Previous investigations with the coxal bone have utilised either ...
Background: Some regions of Spain are withdrawing their pregnancy screening program for congenital toxoplasmosis (CT). The Spanish Research Network of Congenital Toxoplasmosis (REIV-TOXO) was created to describe the current ...
Circulating lipopolysaccharide-binding protein (LBP) is increased in individuals with liver steatosis. We aimed to evaluate the possible impact of liver LBP downregulation using lipid nanoparticle-containing chemically ...
The concept of risk age may help overcome an excessive weight of age in cardiovascular risk functions. This study aimed to evaluate the equivalence of risk age with arterial stiffness by comparing people with increased ...
Background: The neurological symptoms of Long COVID (LC) and the impact of neuropsychological manifestations on people’s daily lives have been extensively described. Although a large body of literature describes symptoms, ...
Introduction: Multiple sclerosis (MS) causes a progressive disability, which substantially impacts the quality of life (QoL). Health interventions that meet the needs and demands of people with MS are essential to minimize ...
Objective: This study aimed to assess the association of somatic depressive symptoms (SDS), cognitive/emotional depressive symptoms (C-EDS), and antidepressant treatment on mortality due to cancer and other causes in a ...
Background/Objectives: This study investigates whether systemic ovalbumin-aluminum sensitization followed by cutaneous challenge induces thermal hyperalgesia and spinal cord gliosis in mice. Methods: Adult female ICR-CD1 ...
Discovered in 1989, pituitary adenylate cyclase-activating polypeptide (PACAP) is a neuropeptide with strong neuroprotective properties, as shown in various neurodegenerative preclinical models of Parkinson, Alzheimer, or ...
Purpose: Breast cancer (BC) incidence and mortality in women have changed over time. This study aims to analyze population-level incidence and mortality trends over 40 years of observation. Methods: Population-based study ...
Neuropathic pain after spinal cord injury lacks any effective treatments, often leading to chronic pain. This study tested whether the daily administration of fully characterized polyphenolic extracts from grape stalks and ...
Accumulating evidence suggests that the predisposition to metabolic diseases is established in utero through epigenomic modifications. However, it remains unclear whether childhood obesity results from preexisting epigenomic ...
Background Mice experiments have underscored the efficacy of pharmacological inhibition of advanced glycation endproducts (AGEs) through the use of soluble receptors for advanced glycation endproducts (sRAGE) in mitigating ...
Purpose: This study aims to assess how fractures and fear of falling affect health-related quality of life (HRQoL) in men (≥50 years) across different domains. Methods: Design: Observational study. Setting: Primary care. ...
Background: Several known factors contribute to the visible signs of facial aging. Changes in dentition and bony architecture, facial fat loss, diminished dermal thickness, and loss of dermal and subcutaneous support ...
Pulmonary Embolism (PE) is a life-threatening condition initiated by the presence of blood clots in the pulmonary arteries, leading to severe morbidity and mortality. Underlying mechanisms involve endothelial dysfunction, ...
Background: Intraperitoneal sensitization combined with topical and/or epicu- taneous treatment using an ovalbumin (OVA)-aluminum salt solution (OVA-AL) repre- sents a model for inducing atopic dermatitis (AD). However, ...
The development of a trustworthy in vitro lung cancer model is essential to better understand the illness, find novel biomarkers, and establish new treatments. Polycaprolactone (PCL) electrospun nanofibers are a cost-effective ...
