Incidencia, factores de riesgo y evolución de la neuropatía frénica en pacientes sometidos a cirugía coronaria de revascularizacion miocárdica.
2004
La lesión del nervio frénico es una complicación de la cirugía a corazón abierto cuya incidencia varia en función de los criterios diagnósticos empleados, aunque habitualmente se considera a la neurografía como técnica "patrón oro" para valorar la función del nervio. La aplicación de hipotermia local mediante soluciones cardiopléjicas se considera el factor que con más frecuencia se asocia a la disfunción del nervio frénico aunque también se han propuesto otros factores de riesgo. La mayor incidencia observada en los pacientes diabéticos puede deberse a una especial predisposición como consecuencia de los efectos de la diabetes sobre la fibra nerviosa periférica, de forma generalizada. El o…
Morbilidad y mortalidad en pacientes con fractura de cadera. Estudio prospectivo.
2005
OBJETIVO: El objetivo de este trabajo es estudiar el impacto de diferentes factores sobre el pronóstico y evolución de pacientes con fractura de cadera y considerar si estos parámetros son modificables.MATERIAL Y METODO: Se realizó un estudio observacional prospectivo de todos los pacientes diagnosticados de fractura de cadera en el Hospital "Vega Baja" (Alicante, España), durante el periodo 1994 a 1997. Fueron 331 pacientes mayores de 50 años hospitalizados procedentes del área de salud nº 20 de la Comunidad Valenciana diagnosticados con el código 820-821 del ICD (Internacional Classification of Diseases) y con un seguimiento de un año posterior a haber sufrido la fractura de cadera.. Se c…
Reparación del ligamento cruzado anterior en rodillas con alto potencial de crecimiento. Estudio experimental
2005
INTRODUCCIÓNLa rotura del ligamento cruzado anterior en individuos con fisis abiertas, aparece en edades cada vez más tempranas, con frecuencia creciente. Una reparación anatómica, con un riesgo mínimo de lesión fisaria, sería la técnica ideal. OBJETIVOSPrincipal: 1ª Parte: estudiar el efecto de la perforación transfisaria femoral distal en individuos con alto potencial de crecimiento y el posible efecto protector del injerto tendinoso. 2ª Parte: investigar las variaciones de magnitud de la lesión fisaria que pueden producirse aleatoriamente debido a la configuración tridimensional de la fisis, en relación con la localización e inclinación del túnel .Secundario: probar que el modelo experim…
La spada penale trafigge i rave party. Osservazioni attorno al nuovo reato di “Invasione di terreni o edifici per raduni pericolosi” (art. 434 bis c.…
2022
Il contributo analizza i profili critici della norma "anti rave party" introdotta con il Decreto Legge n. 162/2022 e ne valuta le possibili modifiche, alla luce della proposta di emendamento di recente presentata dall'Esecutivo con l'obiettivo di "normalizzare" la disposizione.
Fluent Speakers of a Second Language Process Graspable Nouns Expressed in L2 Like in Their Native Language
2017
According to embodied cognition, language processing relies on the same neural structures involved when individuals experience the content of language material. If so, processing nouns expressing a motor content presented in a second language should modulate the motor system as if presented in the mother tongue. We tested this hypothesis using a go-no go paradigm. Stimuli included English nouns and pictures depicting either graspable or non-graspable objects. Pseudo-words and scrambled images served as controls. Italian participants, fluent speakers of English as a second language, had to respond when the stimulus was sensitive and refrain from responding when it was not. As foreseen by emb…
Framing Effects on Online Security Behavior
2020
We conducted an incentivized lab experiment examining the effect of gain vs. loss-framed warning messages on online security behavior. We measured the probability of suffering a cyberattack during the experiment as the result of five specific security behaviors: choosing a safe connection, providing minimum information during the sign-up process, choosing a strong password, choosing a trusted vendor, and logging-out. A loss-framed message led to more secure behavior during the experiment. The experiment also measured the effect of trusting beliefs and cybersecurity knowledge. Trusting beliefs had a negative effect on security behavior, while cybersecurity knowledge had a positive effect.
Numerical Magnitude Affects Accuracy but Not Precision of Temporal Judgments
2021
A Theory of Magnitude (ATOM) suggests that space, time, and quantities are processed through a generalized magnitude system. ATOM posits that task-irrelevant magnitudes interfere with the processing of task-relevant magnitudes as all the magnitudes are processed by a common system. Many behavioral and neuroimaging studies have found support in favor of a common magnitude processing system. However, it is largely unknown whether such cross-domain monotonic mapping arises from a change in the accuracy of the magnitude judgments or results from changes in precision of the processing of magnitude. Therefore, in the present study, we examined whether large numerical magnitude affects temporal ac…

The corticotrophin-releasing factor/urocortin system regulates white fat browning in mice through paracrine mechanisms.
2015
Objectives:\ud The corticotrophin-releasing factor (CRF)/urocortin system is expressed in the adipose tissue of mammals, but its functional role in this tissue remains unknown.\ud \ud Methods:\ud Pharmacological manipulation of the activity of CRF receptors, CRF1 and CRF2, was performed in 3T3L1 white pre-adipocytes and T37i brown pre-adipocytes during in vitro differentiation. The expression of genes of the CRF/urocortin system and of markers of white and brown adipocytes was evaluated along with mitochondrial biogenesis and cellular oxygen consumption. Metabolic evaluation of corticosterone-deficient or supplemented Crhr1-null (Crhr1−/−) mice and their wild-type controls was performed alo…
Respiratory Sinus Arrhythmia Mechanisms in Young Obese Subjects
2020
Autonomic nervous system (ANS) activity and imbalance between its sympathetic and parasympathetic components are important factors contributing to the initiation and progression of many cardiovascular disorders related to obesity. The results on respiratory sinus arrhythmia (RSA) magnitude changes as a parasympathetic index were not straightforward in previous studies on young obese subjects. Considering the potentially unbalanced ANS regulation with impaired parasympathetic control in obese patients, the aim of this study was to compare the relative contribution of baroreflex and non-baroreflex (central) mechanisms to the origin of RSA in obese vs. control subjects. To this end, we applied…
