Global warming “heating up” the ICU through Candida auris infections: the climate changes theory
2019
The most enigmatic aspect of the rise of Candida auris as a human pathogen is that it emerged simultaneously on three continents, with each clade being genetically distinct. Although new pathogenic fungal species are described regularly, these are mostly species associated with single cases in individuals who are immunosuppressed.
Algunas reflexiones acerca de la stjue de 9 de julio de 2020 sobre los pactos novatorios en materia de cláusulas suelo
2021
The Sentence of the Court of Justice of the European Union of July 9, 2020 comes to answer the five questions that, in its preliminary question, the Court of First Instance and Instruction No. 3 of Teruel asks about the validity of the new agreements in the context of the floor clauses, establishing jurisprudential doctrine on this matter about which our Supreme Court had previously ruled in its Judgments of October 16, 2017, in the sense of considering the agreed floor clause null as a consequence of the novation agreement and, subsequently, those of April 11, 2018 and September 13, 2018 in the opposite direction, declaring that the novation agreement was valid. It is a long-awaited and in…

On the Fučík spectrum of the p-Laplacian with no-flux boundary condition
2023
In this paper, we study the quasilinear elliptic problem \begin{align*} \begin{aligned} -\Delta_{p} u&= a\l(u^+\r)^{p-1}-b\l(u^-\r)^{p-1} \quad && \text{in } \Omega,\\ u & = \text{constant} &&\text{on } \partial\Omega,\\ 0&=\int_{\partial \Omega}\left|\nabla u\right|^{p-2}\nabla u\cdot \nu \,\diff \sigma,&& \end{aligned} \end{align*} where the operator is the $p$-Laplacian and the boundary condition is of type no-flux. In particular, we consider the Fu\v{c}\'{\i}k spectrum of the $p$-Laplacian with no-flux boundary condition which is defined as the set $\fucik$ of all pairs $(a,b)\in\R^2$ such that the problem above has a nontrivial solution. It turns out…
Realistic Implementation of the Particle Model for the Visualization of Nanoparticle Precipitation and Growth
2019
An application for visualizing the aggregation of structureless atoms is presented. The application allows us to demonstrate on a qualitative basis, as well as by quantitatively monitoring the aggregate surface/volume ratio, that the enhanced reactivity of nanoparticles can be connected with their large specific surface. It is suggested that, along with the use of geometric analogies, this bottom-up approach can be effective in discussing the enhanced reactivity proprieties of nanoparticles. The application is based on a two-dimensional realistic dynamic model where atoms move because of their thermal and interaction potential energies, and the trajectories are determined by solving numeric…

Chloroquine for COVID-19: rationale, facts, hopes
2020
The tragedy of the pandemic coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) led to a desperate search for effective treatments. Chloroquine (CQ), an aminoquinoline used for many years for the prophylaxis and therapy of malaria and autoimmune diseases, has been put forward as a treatment option. The fact that CQ is not patented and has been in clinical use for years is a major advantage. CQ has been shown to have antiviral effects in SARS, MERS, Ebola, and HIV infections, but without data showing clinical effectiveness [1, 2]. Does the current level of evidence suffice for prescribing CQ for COVID-19?
Improving Nearest Neighbor Based Multi-target Prediction Through Metric Learning
2017
The purpose of this work is to learn specific distance functions to be applied for multi-target regression problems using nearest neighbors. The idea of preserving the order relation between input and output vectors considering their corresponding distances is used along a maximal margin criterion to formulate a specific metric learning problem. Extensive experiments and the corresponding discussion try to put forward the advantages of the proposed algorithm that can be considered as a generalization of previously proposed approaches. Preliminary results suggest that this line of work can lead to very competitive algorithms with convenient properties.
