Association between oral anticoagulant therapy and in-hospital complications and mortality
Aims: This study aimed to identify patterns of direct oral anticoagulant (DOAC) and vitamin K antagonist (VKA) use in hospitalized patients and to examine their association with in-hospital haemorrhagic complications and ...
Loss of normal facial asymmetry in schizophrenia and bipolar disorder: implications for development of brain asymmetry in psychotic illness
Development of the craniofacies occurs in embryological intimacy with development of the brain and both show normal left-right asymmetries. While facial dysmorphology occurs to excess in psychotic illness, facial asymmetry ...
Advancing spine surgery: evaluating the potential for full robotic automation
Introduction: The use of robotic systems in spine surgery is expanding, with growing interest in the potential for full automation. This review explores current robotic technologies, their limitations, and future automation ...
Preference for social motion in autistic adults
Autism is often linked to attenuated social attention, including a lowered looking preference for biological motion in autistic compared to non-autistic children. This looking preference has been suggested as an autism ...
Cognate beginnings to bilingual lexical acquisition
Recent studies suggest that cognateness boosts bilingual lexical acquisition. This study proposes an account in which language co-activation accelerates accumulation of word-learning instances across languages. This account ...
Crossmodal semantic congruence and rarity improve episodic memory
Semantic congruence across sensory modalities at encoding of information has been shown to improve memory performance over a short time span. However, the beneficial effect of crossmodal congruence is less well established ...
Multisensory integration of speech and gestures in a naturalistic paradigm
Speech comprehension is crucial for human social interaction, relying on the integration of auditory and visual cues across various levels of representation. While research has extensively studied multisensory integration ...
Effect of continuum states on the double-heavy hadron spectra
We present the leading order coupling of double-heavy hadrons to heavy hadron pairs in Born-Oppenheimer effective field theory. We obtain the expressions for the contribution of heavy hadron pairs to the masses and widths ...
Cinematographic continuity edits across shot scales and camera angles: an ERP analysis
Film editing has attracted great theoretical and practical interest since the beginnings of cinematography. In recent times, the neural correlates of visual transitions at edit cuts have been at the focus of attention in ...
Circulating short-chain fatty acids and Mediterranean food patterns. A potential role for the prediction of type 2 diabetes risk: The Di@bet.es Study
Background: Identifying nutritional patterns associated with developing type 2 diabetes (T2D) can facilitate more effective and personalized dietary interventions. Short-chain fatty acids (SCFAs), key metabolites derived ...
Multisensory integration of naturalistic speech and gestures in autistic adults
Seeing the speaker often facilitates auditory speech comprehension through audio-visual integration. This audio-visual facilitation is stronger under challenging listening conditions, such as in real-life social environments. ...
Crossmodal semantics in memory: scoping review and meta-analyses of multisensory effects in short-term and episodic memory systems
The human brain represents objects and events in the environment by binding together their defining semantic attributes across the senses (e.g., vision, hearing, touch). Semantic relationships between these attributes in ...
Plasma p-tau217 in Alzheimer's disease: Lumipulse and ALZpath SIMOA head-to-head comparison
Plasma phosphorylated-tau217 (p-tau217) has been shown to be one of the most accurate diagnostic markers for Alzheimer's disease. No studies have compared the clinical performance of p-tau217 as assessed by the fully ...
Evaluation of the psychometric properties of patient-reported outcome measures of health-related quality of life across the European cancer continuum: a systematic review protocol using COSMIN methodology
Introduction Over the past decades, there has been increasing recognition that assessing patients with cancer's health-related quality of life (HRQoL) is pivotal to delivering optimal patient-centred healthcare. ...
¿Evaluación del desempeño en las administraciones públicas? Una revisión desde el neoinstitucionalismo y unas propuestas desde la gobernanza robusta y las capacidades institucionales
La evaluación del desempeño constituye un componente crítico para propiciar la imprescindible transformación de la gestión del empleo público que exige el contexto de turbulencia en el que operan las Administraciones ...
Whole-brain models to explore altered states of consciousness from the bottom up
The scope of human consciousness includes states departing from what most of us experience as ordinary wakefulness. These altered states of consciousness constitute a prime opportunity to study how global changes in brain ...
The role of miR-150-5p/E2F3/survivin axis in the pathogenesis of plasmablastic lymphoma and its therapeutic potential
Plasmablastic lymphoma (PBL) is an uncommon and aggressive B-cell lymphoma with a poor prognosis. Some studies have described genetic alterations in PBL, but its transcriptome has been scarcely studied, and molecular ...
Early developmental origins of cortical disorders modeled in human neural stem cells
The implications of the early phases of human telencephalic development, involving neural stem cells (NSCs), in the etiology of cortical disorders remain elusive. Here, we explore the expression dynamics of cortical and ...
Sensory stimulation enhances visual working memory capacity
Visual working memory (vWM) plays a crucial role in visual information processing and higher cognitive functions; however, it has a very limited capacity. Recently, several studies have successfully modulated vWM capacity ...
Acceptability of risk-based breast cancer screening among professionals and healthcare providers from 6 countries contributing to the MyPeBS study
Background: To evaluate the acceptability of a risk-based breast cancer screening (BCS) strategy among professionals involved in MyPeBS study in 6 countries. Methods: After qualitative interviews, a questionnaire was built ...
