Non-syndromic craniosynostosis in children : scoping review
2017
Background Craniosynostosis (CS) is a complex condition consisting of the early fusion of one or more cranial sutures in the intrauterine stage. The affected infant exhibits abnormal head shape at time of birth or shortly thereafter. It can be observed in normal individuals (non-syndromic CS or NSCS) or as a part of a multisystem syndrome. The purposes of the present article were to carry out a scoping review on Non-Syndromic CS and to discuss the most important findings retrieved. Material and Methods The steps of this scoping review were as follows: first, to pose a research question; second, to identify relevant studies to answer the research question; third, to select and retrieve the s…
Model building on the non-factorisable type IIA T6/(Z4×ΩR) orientifold
2016
We construct global semi-realistic supersymmetric models with intersecting D6-branes on the non-factorisable orientifold . The non-factorisable structure gives rise to differences compared to the factorisable case: additional conditions for the three-cycles to be Lagrangian and extra constraints on the wrapping numbers for building fractional cycles.
Scientific networks and research groups development: educational Psychology case in Spain during the five-year periods 2004-2008 and 2009-2013
2017
El objetivo de este estudio ha sido identificar y conocer los cambios experimentados en los grupos de la comunidad científica de auto- res que trabajan en instituciones españolas y que publican artículos en las revistas científicas incluidas en la categoría "Psychology Educational" en la Web of Science durante el período 2004 hasta el 2013 y su pertenencia y perma- nencia en los diferentes grupos de investigación. Se realizó un estudio com- parativo de los grupos y su composición a lo largo de los quinquenios 2004- 2008 y 2009-2013. Los resultados indicaron que existe un incremento en el número de investigadores y de los grupos de investigación en el ámbito de la psicología educativa, que v…
Goodpasture antigen-binding protein, the kinase that phosphorylates the goodpasture antigen, is an alternatively spliced variant implicated in autoim…
2000
The non-collagenous C-terminal domain of the alpha(3) chain of collagen IV is the autoantigen in Goodpasture disease, an autoimmune disorder described only in humans. Specific N-terminal phosphorylation is a biological feature unique to the human domain when compared with other homologous domains lacking immunopathogenic potential. We have recently cloned from a HeLa-derived cDNA library a novel serine/threonine kinase (Goodpasture antigen-binding protein (GPBP)) that phosphorylates the N-terminal region of the human domain (Raya, A. Revert, F, Navarro, S. and Saus J. (1999) J. Biol. Chem. 274, 12642-12649). We show here that the pre-mRNA of GPBP is alternatively spliced in human tissues an…
Dabigatran: A new oral anticoagulant. Guidelines to follow in oral surgery procedures. A systematic review of the literature.
2015
Background Dabigatran is a newly commercialized drug that is replacing other anticoagulants in the prevention of venous thromboembolism, stroke and systemic arterial valve embolism. It acts directly on thrombin presenting in a dynamic and predictable way, which does not require monitoring these patients. Therefore, we consider the need to assess whether their use increases the risk of bleeding involved before any dental treatment. Material and Methods We performed a systematic review with a bibliographic search in PubMed/Medline along with the Cochrane Library. We excluded articles dealing with all anticoagulants other than dabigatran, and works about surgical treatments in anatomical locat…
Evaluación y clasificación de las revistas científicotécnicas españolas de Ciencias de la Actividad Física y el Deporte
2008
En este artículo se evalúan y clasifican las revistas españolas de Ciencias de la Actividad Física y el Deporte (CCAFD), atendiendo a su calidad global. Para ello se aplica un modelo de evaluación, validado con anterioridad, que combina 23 indicadores relativos a diferentes características de las revistas (formales, de contenido científico y difusión). De esta manera pueden clasificarse las publicaciones periódicas en cuatro categorías de calidad: ‘muy alta’, ‘alta’, ‘media’ y ‘baja’. Los resultados indican que ninguna de las 28 publicaciones existentes alcanza la categoría superior, el 25% obtiene una calidad ‘alta’, el 50% una calidad ‘media’ y otro 25% una calidad ‘baja’. Aunque se obser…
Combinatorial chemistry of -hairpins
2000
Combinatorial chemistry is expanding rapidly both in terms of chemistry development and application to the synthesis of compound libraries for lead discovery and optimization. Combinatorial technologies continue evolving and developing, in fact they are being used as basic research tools in different fields that include peptide/protein folding. This review examines the use of combinatorial chemistry in the design of peptides and protein domains that adopt beta-sheet conformations. In particular, the use of conformationally restricted peptide libraries has allowed the identification of linear peptides that are folded in a beta-hairpin structure in plain aqueous solutions.
Medicago species affect the community composition of arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi associated with roots
2007
National audience; The symbiosis between plants and arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi (AMF) is ancient and involves 80% of terrestrial plant families. The symbiotic association between AMF and plants was described to be non specific. However, AMF were reported to influence plant community diversity and productivity. On the other way, the effect of plant genotypes belonging to closely related species on AMF diversity has not been explored so far. The aim of this work was to assess the impact of four different Medicago species, M. laciniata, M. murex, M. polymorpha and M. truncatula cv. Jemalong J5, on the composition of AM fungal community, when cultivated in a silty-thin clay soil (Mas d’Imbert,…
Association of susceptible genotypes to periodontal disease with the clinical outcome and tooth survival after non-surgical periodontal therapy: A sy…
2015
Background The real clinical utility of genetic testing is the prognostic value of genetic factors in the clinical outcome of periodontal treatment and the tooth survival. A meta-analysis was undertaken to estimate the effect of a susceptible genotype to periodontitis on the clinical outcomes of non-surgical periodontal therapy and the tooth survival. Material and Methods A systematic search of MEDLINE-Pubmed, Cochrane Library and Scopus was performed. Additionally, a hand search was done in three journals. No specific language restriction was applied. Two reviewers screened independently titles and abstracts or full text copies. Quality assessment of all the included studies was held. Resu…
Los archivos de distrito en Portugal: memoria administrativa, histórica y social
2018
Se presenta un análisis de la evolución histórico-jurídi ca de los Archivos de Distrito (AD) portugueses, como instituciones que asumen la salvaguarda del patrimo nio público-administrativo del país. Para ello se revisa la bibliografía más relevante sobre el tema, así como la documentación histórica, legal y política, describien do su historia desde sus orígenes y los nuevos caminos que se van trazando, en relación con el aumento de la accesibilidad a la documentación que gestionan y a las nuevas estrategias de difusión de la información entre la ciudadanía. Todo ello en el marco de las distintas ini ciativas de modernización administrativa y las nuevas tecnologías disponibles.
