Comparative study of molecular processes and factors affecting endometrial function in subfertile patients with uterine disorders
2021
El endometrio humano es un tejido dinámico y complejo que solo es receptivo al embrión durante un corto periodo de tiempo. Por lo tanto, la identificación de trastornos y factores que impidan que el endometrio adquiera un fenotipo receptivo es crucial para poder prevenir fallos de implantación embrionaria y aumentar las tasas de embarazo. Los trastornos uterinos son complejos, multifactoriales y poligénicos y a menudo comprometen la fertilidad femenina, aunque se desconoce con exactitud cómo afectan a la adquisición de la receptividad endometrial. Además, estos trastornos carecen actualmente de un tratamiento efectivo, a menudo presentan comorbilidad entre ellos y su incidencia aumenta con …
Evolución post-trasplante hepático de los pacientes con cirrosis por VHC y coinfectados por VIH. Comparación con pacientes monoinfectados por VHC
2020
La infección por el virus de la inmunodeficiencia humana (VIH) ha experimentado progresos importantes en las últimas décadas gracias a la aparición de terapias antirretrovirales potentes y eficaces, lo que ha permitido controlar el desarrollo de infecciones oportunistas y aumentar la supervivencia de estos pacientes. Así, las enfermedades hepáticas son una de las causas principales de morbimortalidad en los pacientes VIH, que frecuentemente presentan confección con virus hepatotropos como el virus de la hepatitis B (VHB) y el virus de la hepatitis C (VHC). La causa más frecuente de enfermedad hepática en pacientes VIH en nuestro medio es la confección con el VHC, que además presenta un curs…
Farm-Scale Crop Yield Prediction from Multi-Temporal Data Using Deep Hybrid Neural Networks
2021
Farm-scale crop yield prediction is a natural development of sustainable agriculture, producing a rich amount of food without depleting and polluting environmental resources. Recent studies on crop yield production are limited to regional-scale predictions. The regional-scale crop yield predictions usually face challenges in capturing local yield variations based on farm management decisions and the condition of the field. For this research, we identified the need to create a large and reusable farm-scale crop yield production dataset, which could provide precise farm-scale ground-truth prediction targets. Therefore, we utilise multi-temporal data, such as Sentinel-2 satellite images, weath…
Chronic Endometritis in Infertile Women: Impact of Untreated Disease, Plasma Cell Count and Antibiotic Therapy on IVF Outcome—A Systematic Review and…
2022
This systematic review and meta-analysis aims to evaluate the impact of chronic endometritis (CE) and its therapy on in vitro fertilization (IVF) outcome. Additionally, we aim to investigate whether various degrees of CE severity may exert a different effect on IVF outcome. Ongoing-pregnancy rate/live-birth-rate (OPR/LBR), clinical-pregnancy rate (CPR), and miscarriage rate (MR) were calculated. A total number of 4145 patients (from ten studies) were included. Women with CE had lower OPR/LBR (OR 1.97, p = 0.02) and CPR (OR 2.28, p = 0.002) compared to those without CE. CE cure increased OPR/LBR (OR 5.33, p < 0.0001) and CPR (OR 3.64, p = 0.0001). IVF outcome was comparable between women …

Risk of Recurrence After a First Episode of Symptomatic Venous Thromboembolism Provoked by a Transient Risk Factor A Systematic Review
2010
Background We aimed to determine the risk of recurrence for symptomatic venous thromboembolism (VTE) provoked by different transient risk factors. Data Sources MEDLINE, EMBASE, and Cochrane Collaboration Registry of Randomized Trials databases were searched. Study Selection Prospective cohort studies and randomized trials of patients with a first episode of symptomatic VTE provoked by a transient risk factor and treated for at least 3 months were identified. Data Extraction Number of patients and recurrent VTE during the 0- to 12-month and 0- to 24-month intervals after stopping therapy, study design, and provoking risk factor characteristics were extracted. Data Synthesis Annualized recurr…
Clinical and genetic update of corneal dystrophies.
2019
The International Committee for Classification of Corneal Dystrophies (IC3D) distinguishes between 22 distinct forms of corneal dystrophy which are predominantly autosomal dominant, although autosomal recessive and X-chromosomal dominant patterns do exist. Before any genetic examination, there should be documentation of a detailed corneal exam of as many affected and unaffected family members as possible, because detailed phenotypic description is essential for accurate diagnosis. Corneal documentation should be performed in direct and indirect illumination at the slit lamp with the pharmacologically dilated pupil. For the majority of the corneal dystrophies, a phenotype-genotype correlatio…
Wirbelsäulenmanifestationen der chronischen rekurrierenden multifokalen Osteomyelitis (CRMO)
2002
Chronic recurrent multifocal osteomyelitis (CRMO) is a systemic osteo-articular disease that is characterized by a sterile, primarily chronic osteomyelitis with various distribution patterns of the individual lesions. In this article, we describe the "axial type" with predominant involvement of the spine, which represents 13 of our 41 CRMO cases of different age groups. The important element of its diagnosis is the typical lympho-plasmacellular spondylitis that can be detected and staged by scintigraphy, MRI and conventional radiography. Potentially affected are all vertebrae from the mid-cervical spine to the sacrum. One or several segments can be involved, sometimes as transient inflammat…
Fourth case of louse-borne relapsing fever in Young Migrant, Sicily, Italy, December 2015. Mini Review Article
2016
Abstract Objectives Currently louse-borne relapsing fever (LBRF) is primarily found in limited endemic foci in Ethiopia, Somalia and Sudan; no case of imported LBRF has been reported in Europe in the 9 years prior to 2015. The aim of our paper is to describe a new case of imported LBRF detected in Sicily, Italy, and to review all cases reported in migrants arrived in Europe in the last 10 years. Study design Mini review of all published cases of louse-borne relapsing fever in Europe in the last 10 years. Methods A computerized search without language restriction was conducted using PubMed combining the terms ‘(louse-borne relapsing fever or LBRF or recurrentis) and (refugee or Europe or mig…
Partnership formation and dissolution over the life course: applying sequence analysis and event history analysis in the study of recurrent events
2015
We present two types of approach to the analysis of recurrent events for discretely measured data, and show how these methods can complement each other when analysing co-residential partnership histories. Sequence analysis is a descriptive tool that gives an overall picture of the data and helps to find typical and atypical patterns in histories. Event history analysis is used to make conclusions about the effects of covariates on the timing and duration of the partnerships. As a substantive question, we studied how family background and childhood socio-emotional characteristics were related to later partnership formation and stability in a Finnish cohort born in 1959. We found that high se…
