Graph-theoretical derivation of brain structural connectivity

2020

Brain connectivity at the single neuron level can provide fundamental insights into how information is integrated and propagated within and between brain regions. However, it is almost impossible to adequately study this problem experimentally and, despite intense efforts in the field, no mathematical description has been obtained so far. Here, we present a mathematical framework based on a graph-theoretical approach that, starting from experimental data obtained from a few small subsets of neurons, can quantitatively explain and predict the corresponding full network properties. This model also changes the paradigm with which large-scale model networks can be built, from using probabilisti…

Overview of the Development of Hydraulic Above Knee Prosthesis

2017

This paper presents research and development of hydraulically powered above-knee prosthesis (HAKP) and novel prosthetic foot, in order to enable transfemoral (TF) amputees perform stair ascent and other daily activities in as much as possible natural manner. Functions that need exertion of large forces and moments during locomotion such as walking up stairs and slopes cannot be naturally accomplished by commercially available microprocessor-controlled above-knee (AK) prostheses. Also, such prosthetic devices are expensive and unaffordable for major part of amputee population, so mostly used commercial prostheses are energetically passive devices. Deficiency of passive prosthetic devices is …

2020

La destacada actividad artística de Enric Mestre (Alboraya / Valencia, 1936) solo pude abordarse, en su compleja diversidad y riqueza, si se mantiene, como eje metodológico básico de su estudio crítico, el abierto enfoque de su sistemática interdisciplinariedad. Los diálogos e intercambios entre la escultura cerámica, la arquitectura, la pintura, el dibujo y los murales conforman precisamente el ámbito plural de su constante quehacer artístico. Especialmente la investigación se centra en las esculturas cerámicas y en las pinturas geométricas, que constituyen los dos dilatados campos de su creación plástica, cultivados asiduamente, a lo largo del último medio siglo

How selection of collaborating partners impact on the green performance of global businesses? An empirical study of green sustainability

2020

In recent days, both collaboration and sustainability have become an integral part of many global supply chains to achieve business excellence. Although previous literature and actual practices confirmed the successful implementation of sustainability practices through supply chain collaborations, it is not clear how collaborating partners can support financial and environmental performance, and hence strengthen the partnership performance in the global supply chains. To address this practice-based research question, we test the theoretical underpinning of suppliers and logistics partners in relation to required skills selection. We capture the depth of interdependencies in collaborations f…

Role of particle characteristics in the compression behaviour of gap-graded sands

2019

Abstract The compression in gap-graded mixtures of sands with combined mineralogy has been investigated in recent research, focusing on the key factors that might imply the occurrence of convergent or non-convergent paths in compression (i.e., transitional or non-transitional behaviour). From previous work, the mineralogy of a matrix composed of larger grains seems to determine the possibility of the occurrence of transitional behaviour. Hence, if there is a strong and stiff matrix made of quartz sand particles, which are either larger than or at least of similar size to the other component, then non-convergent compression paths (i.e., transitional behaviour) are likely to occur. As a furth…

Diferencias en las características clínico-biológicas y prevalencia de complicaciones crónicas en relación con el envejecimiento de pacientes con dia…

2016

Resumen La diabetes tipo 2 (DMT2) es una enfermedad con elevada prevalencia que aumenta con la edad. Por este motivo y por sus complicaciones cronicas genera elevado coste humano, social y economico en la poblacion mayor. Ademas, la poblacion mayor con DMT2 presenta una marcada heterogeneidad clinica. Por lo que nuestro objetivo principal es conocer como se relaciona la edad con el fenotipo clinico-biologico y cual es la prevalencia de complicaciones cronicas en el paciente con DMT2. Material y metodos Estudio transversal de una amplia poblacion de DMT2 (n = 405) seleccionada de forma aleatoria de una Unidad de Diabetes y 2 centros de salud (60%). En estos sujetos se recogieron variables cl…

2016

Rationnel Les phospholipides et sphingolipides jouent un role primordial dans la fonctionnalite et le role anti-atherogene des HDL. Ces proprietes sont alterees chez les patients porteurs d'un syndrome metabolique avant meme l'apparition d'une hyperglycemie. Nous avons donc recherche si les HDL de ces patients presentaient des anomalies de leur sphingophospholipidome. Patients et Methodes Par chromatographie liquide couplee a la spectrometrie de masse en tandem, nous avons quantifie 80 especes moleculaires des principales classes de phospholipides et sphingolipides des HDL2 et HDL3, chez 26 patients avec un syndrome metabolique et une glycemie a jeun nor-male (14 hommes, 12 femmes, âge moye…

Analyse de l’impact des facteurs socioéconomiques sur la sévérité initiale des accidents vasculaires cérébraux en France métropolitaine et aux Antill…

2016

Introduction Malgre un systeme de sante tres favorable, les inegalites sociales de sante se sont creusees en France au cours des deux dernieres decennies. En depit de cette situation, l’impact des facteurs socioeconomiques a ete peu etudie a l’echelle individuelle sur le territoire francais et les donnees a meme de mobiliser les acteurs restent insuffisantes. Par ailleurs le retentissement des AVC sur l’etat de sante des francais est considerable : premiere cause de handicap de l’adulte, deuxieme cause de demence, troisieme cause de mortalite. De plus, le niveau socioeconomique, par son impact sur les facteurs de risque d’AVC, est susceptible d’affecter les manifestations cliniques initiale…

Relation entre volume gastrique après sleeve et résultat pondéral : mythe ou réalité ?

2019

Introduction : La sleeve gastrectomie (SG) est devenue la technique de chirurgie bariatrique la plus réalisée en France. Cependant, les causes d’échec sont peu connues, et le volume gastrique (VG) pourrait y avoir un rôle. Le but de cette étude est donc d’analyser le lien entre le volume gastrique à un an et le succès pondéral. Patients et méthodes : Tous les patients obèses ayant bénéficié d’une SG entre septembre 2015 et juin 2017 ont bénéficié d’une volumétrie gastrique scanographique un an après la chirurgie. Le pourcentage d’excès de poids perdu à un an était mesuré pour évaluer le résultat pondéral et rechercher un lien avec le VG résiduel. Résultats : Cent soixante-huit patients cons…
