Tobacco smoking and risk of endometriosis: a systematic review and meta-analysis
2014
Objective Since conflicting results have been published on the role of tobacco smoking on the risk of endometriosis, we provide an up-to-date summary quantification of this potential association. Design We performed a PubMed/MEDLINE search of the relevant publications up to September 2014, considering studies on humans published in English. We searched the reference list of the identified papers to find other relevant publications. Case–control as well as cohort studies have been included reporting risk estimates on the association between tobacco smoking and endometriosis. 38 of the 1758 screened papers met the inclusion criteria. The selected studies included a total of 13 129 women diagn…
Clarithromycin in the Management of Chronic Rhinosinusitis: Preliminary Results of a Possible Its New Use
2018
The aim of this study is to evaluate the efficacy and safety of prolonged therapy with low-dose clarithromycin in patients with chronic rhinosinusitis with polyps (CRSwP) after endoscopic sinus surgery (ESS). A total of 10 patients with CRSwP were identified and subjected to bilateral ESS. In post-operative patients they were treated with nasal wash with saline solution and steroid sprays (beclomethasone). During follow-up, after 30–40 days after the operation (M = 35.4 SD = +4.33), patients reported a worsening of symptoms with onset of nasal obstruction; reduction/loss of smell; headache; onset of viscous secretions and therefore all patients continued therapy with saline nasal irrigation…
Aplicación de las técnicas FISH, PCR específica y 16S-ARDRA al estudio de la población bacteriana asociada al proceso de vinificación
2009
El vino es el producto de la fermentación del mosto de uva y en esta transformación intervienen gran cantidad de microorganismos. Estos microorganismos pueden ser beneficiosos, como S. cerevisiae y O. oeni, o perjudiciales como la gran mayoría de las bacterias lácticas (BL) y todas las bacterias acéticas (BA). La adopción de medidas de control tempranas que eviten las alteraciones microbianas durante el proceso de vinificación o crianza es necesaria para obtener un vino de calidad. Por ello, el objetivo principal de este trabajo ha sido el desarrollo de una metodología rápida que permita detectar, identificar y cuantificar las BL y acéticas en el vino.Para ello se desarrollaron de sondas fl…
Shape optimization in contact problems based on penalization of the state inequality
1986
The paper deals with the approximation of optimal shape of elastic bodies, unilaterally supported by a rigid, frictionless foundation. Original state inequality, describing the behaviour of such a body is replaced by a family of penalized state problems. The relation between optimal shapes for the original state inequality and those for penalized state equations is established. peerReviewed
Expression of 60-kD Heat Shock Protein Increases during Carcinogenesis in the Uterine Exocervix
2002
<i>Objectives:</i> The aim of the present study was to determine the presence and expression of the 60-kD heat shock protein (HSP60) in the dysplasia-carcinoma sequence in the uterine exocervix and to evaluate its diagnostic and prognostic significance. <i>Methods and Results:</i> We performed Western blot and immunohistochemical analyses on biopsies from 40 cases, consisting of 10 normal exocervical biopsies, 10 low-grade squamous intraepithelial lesions (L-SIL), 10 high-grade squamous intraepithelial lesions (H-SIL) and 10 cancerous exocervices (G2 grade). The immunohistochemical results were quantified by computer-assisted image analysis. Western blot analysis sho…
Principios rectores en la adopción de diligencias limitativas de los derechos reconocidos en el art. 18 ce
2021
Criminal Procedure Law reform carried out in 2015 requires, in order to adopt the investigation proceedings that limit the rights recognized by art. 18 Spanish Constitution, to respect the guiding principles of specialty, suitability, exceptionality, necessity and proportionality. This article aims, departing from the legal text and considering existing jurisprudence, to unveil the true meaning of these principles.

Estudio y caracterización molecular de la producción de aminas biógenas por parte de bacterias lácticas de origen enológico.
2005
Dada la influencia negativa de la presencia de aminas biógenas en el vino, por el efecto perjudicial sobre la salud humana y por la disminución de la calidad del vino y dada también la presencia de las bacterias lácticas (BL) en los mismos, en esta tesis nos planteamos determinar la importancia de las BL en la presencia de estas aminas en el vino, así como que factores podían influir en la concentración de las mismas o en la mayor o menor producción por parte de las BL.En primer lugar, desarrollamos un método enzimático que permite analizar la concentración de histamina en vino y la producción de la misma por BL, a continuación analizamos la concentración de histamina, tiramina, feniletilam…
Families of solutions to the KPI equation and the structure of their rational representations of order N
2018
We construct solutions to the Kadomtsev-Petviashvili equation (KPI) in terms of Fredholm determinants. We deduce solutions written as a quotient of wronskians of order 2N. These solutions called solutions of order N depend on 2N − 1 parameters. They can also be written as a quotient of two polynomials of degree 2N (N + 1) in x, y and t depending on 2N − 2 parameters. The maximum of the modulus of these solutions at order N is equal to 2(2N + 1) 2. We explicitly construct the expressions until the order 6 and we study the patterns of their modulus in the plane (x, y) and their evolution according to time and parameters.
Oral and dental health of Italian drug addicted in methadone treatment
2019
Objectives: Our group recorded the characteristic of oro-dental health among a group of drug addicts in recovery treatment with methadone, and it evaluated the changes related to the withdrawal therapy. Methodology: A sample of 50 drug addicts in treatment with methadone was included in this study. At the beginning of the withdrawal therapy, the authors recorded the parameters involved in the most common oral diseases. Moreover, it was evaluated how, during the rehabilitation protocol, the behavioral parameters and the xerostomia that influence the oral health changed. A medical history especially referring to drug addiction features was made. An intraoral objective exam was done for each p…
