Adjuvant capecitabine in triple negative breast cancer patients with residual disease after neoadjuvant treatment: real-world evidence from CaRe, a m…
2023
BackgroundIn triple negative breast cancer patients treated with neoadjuvant chemotherapy, residual disease at surgery is the most relevant unfavorable prognostic factor. Current guidelines consider the use of adjuvant capecitabine, based on the results of the randomized CREATE-X study, carried out in Asian patients and including a small subset of triple negative tumors. Thus far, evidence on Caucasian patients is limited, and no real-world data are available.MethodsWe carried out a multicenter, observational study, involving 44 oncologic centres. Triple negative breast cancer patients with residual disease, treated with adjuvant capecitabine from January 2017 through June 2021, were recrui…

Políticas culturales y gobernanza en las minorías étnicas
2016
En este trabajo, analizo el nexo que desde los años ochenta del siglo XX se ha creado entre las políticas neoliberales y el lanzamiento de nuevas formas de gobernanza que otorgan un espacio relevante a los derechos colectivos de las minorías étnicas, al mismo tiempo limitando su alcance y la amenaza que podrían representar por los nuevos modelos de acumulación capitalista. Después de resumir los principales cambios que tuvo la definición de la sujetividad política y jurídica de las minorías étnicas, especialmente en el caso de los pueblos indígenas, se tratará brevemente de las nuevas formas de acción y de discurso político de los movimientos indígenas contemporáneos. Sin desconocer la infl…

SEAM PUCKERING EVALUATION METHOD FOR SEWING PROCESS
2014
The paper presents an automated method for the assessment and classification of puckering defects detected during the preproduction control stage of the sewing machine or product inspection. In this respect, we have presented the possible causes and remedies of the wrinkle nonconformities. Subjective factors related to the control environment and operators during the seams evaluation can be reduced using an automated system whose operation is based on image processing. Our implementation involves spectral image analysis using Fourier transform and an unsupervised neural network, the Kohonen Map, employed to classify material specimens, the input images, into five discrete degrees of quality…
La ciència com a cerca. Don Quixot, la neurociència i l'interrogatori de la veritat
2014
El neurocientifi c Rodrigo Quian Quiroga es va preguntar si «els cientifi cs, embarcats en cerques personals i quixotesques croades, es passen el temps pensant». Aquesta invocacio adjectival del Quixot de Cervantes presenta la ciencia com una cerca epica que equipara la racionalitat cientifi ca amb els deliris de Don Quixot. Es la cerca de la veritat per part de la ciencia, quixotesca i literaria, un «racionalisme neurotic», en paraules del fi losof Nicholas Maxwell?
The lizard cerebral cortex as a model to study neuronal regeneration
2002
The medial cerebral cortex of lizards, an area homologous to the hippocampal fascia dentata, shows delayed postnatal neurogenesis, i.e., cells in the medial cortex ependyma proliferate and give rise to immature neurons, which migrate to the cell layer. There, recruited neurons differentiate and give rise to zinc containing axons directed to the rest of cortical areas, thus resulting in a continuous growth of the medial cortex and its zinc-enriched axonal projection. This happens along the lizard life span, even in adult lizards, thus allowing one of their most important characteristics: neuronal regeneration. Experiments in our laboratory have shown that chemical lesion of the medial cortex…

Increasing the Astrophysical Reach of the Advanced Virgo Detector via the Application of Squeezed Vacuum States of Light
2019
Current interferometric gravitational-wave detectors are limited by quantum noise over a wide range of their measurement bandwidth. One method to overcome the quantum limit is the injection of squeezed vacuum states of light into the interferometer's dark port. Here, we report on the successful application of this quantum technology to improve the shot noise limited sensitivity of the Advanced Virgo gravitational-wave detector. A sensitivity enhancement of up to 3.2±0.1 dB beyond the shot noise limit is achieved. This nonclassical improvement corresponds to a 5%-8% increase of the binary neutron star horizon. The squeezing injection was fully automated and over the first 5 months of the thi…
