Correlación entre la expresión de microRNAs en hipertensión ocular versus glaucoma primario de ángulo abierto
2018
El Glaucoma Primario de Ángulo Abierto (GPAA), la primera causa mundial de ceguera irreversible, aumenta su prevalencia en mayores de 40 años. El primer factor de riesgo es la hipertensión ocular (HTO). No existe un biomarcador que pueda identificar sujetos con mayor predisposición hacia el GPAA. Planteamos la búsqueda de biomarcadores moleculares que ayuden a predecir el riesgo de padecer la enfermedad o de progresión de la misma. Las pequeñas moléculas de ARN no codificante (21-30 nucleótidos) que regulan la expresión génica a nivel posttranscripcional, se denominan miRNAs y se han relacionado con diversas patologías oculares. Esta Tesis Doctoral propone relacionar el perfil diferencial d…
Evaluating similarity measures for gaze patterns in the context of representational competence in physics education
2018
The competent handling of representations is required for understanding physics' concepts, developing problem-solving skills, and achieving scientific expertise. Using eye-tracking methodology, we present the contributions of this paper as follows: We first investigated the preferences of students with the different levels of knowledge; experts, intermediates, and novices, in representational competence in the domain of physics problem-solving. It reveals that experts more likely prefer to use vector than other representations. Besides, a similar tendency of table representation usage was observed in all groups. Also, diagram representation has been used less than others. Secondly, we evalu…
Le prophète in Italy
2009
This paper focuses on the reception of Giacomo Meyerbeer's Le prophète in Italy during the Nineteenth Century. It is divided in two parts: the first deals briefly with general issues about Meyerbeer’s reception in Italy, in order to provide a context to the discussion about Le Prophète. In the second part I’ll begin with some statistics about Le Prophète’s performances in Italy; I’ll go on discussing some relevant performances such as the Italian première in Florence, and the Turin’s and Parma’s productions. I’ll also discuss some examples of Meyerbeer’s criticism in the Italian press.
Visual attention while solving the test of understanding graphs in kinematics: an eye-tracking analysis
2019
This study used eye-tracking to capture students' visual attention while taking a test of understanding graphs in kinematics (TUG-K). A total of N = 115 upper-secondary-level students from Germany and Switzerland took the 26-item multiple-choice instrument after learning about kinematics graphs in the regular classroom. Besides choosing the correct alternative among research-based distractors, the students were required to judge their response confidence for each question. The items were presented sequentially on a computer screen equipped with a remote eye tracker, resulting in a set of approx. 3000 paired responses (accuracy and confidence) and about 40 h of eye-movement data (approx. 500…
Epistemic network analyses of economics students' graph understanding. An eye-tracking study
2020
Learning to solve graph tasks is one of the key prerequisites of acquiring domain-specific knowledge in most study domains. Analyses of graph understanding often use eye-tracking and focus on analyzing how much time students spend gazing at particular areas of a graph&mdash
Grosor coroideo en la retinosis pigmentaria
2013
La coroides como estructura vascular ocular, se encuentra implicada en la fisiopatología de diversas patologías oftalmológicas. Recientemente se ha observado que su espesor se encuentra alterado en diferentes enfermedades coriorretinianas, y además su flujo se encuentra reducido en la Retinosis Pigmentaria. Por lo que planteamos una tesis para el estudio del grosor coroideo en esta distrofia coriorretiniana. Los objetivos de la misma fueron determinar cuantitativamente el grosor coroideo mediante tomografía de coherencia óptica (Cirrus-HD-OCT®) en pacientes con Retinosis Pigmentaria y en sujetos sanos; y su posterior comparación entre ambos grupos. Secundariamente se analizó su posible corr…
Glaucomatous Maculopathy: Thickness Differences on Inner and Outer Macular Layers between Ocular Hypertension and Early Primary Open-Angle Glaucoma U…
2020
The purpose of this study was to compare the thickness of all inner and outer macular layers between ocular hypertension (OHT) and early primary open-angle glaucoma (POAG) using spectral domain optical coherence tomography (SD-OCT) 8 × 8 posterior pole algorithm (8 × 8 PPA). Fifty-seven eyes of 57 OHT individuals and fifty-seven eyes of 57 early POAG patients were included. The thickness of macular retinal nerve fiber layer (mRNFL), ganglion cell layer (GCL), inner plexiform layer (IPL), inner nuclear layer (INL), outer plexiform and nuclear layer, photoreceptor layer (PRL) and retinal pigment epithelium were obtained in 64 cells for each macular layer and mean thickness of superior and inf…
Most hippocampal CA1 pyramidal cells in rabbits increase firing during awake sharp-wave ripples and some do so in response to external stimulation an…
2020
Hippocampus forms neural representations of real-life events including multimodal information of spatial and temporal context. These representations, i.e. organized sequences of neuronal firing are repeated during following rest and sleep, especially when so-called sharp-wave ripples (SPW-Rs) characterize hippocampal local-field potentials. This SPW-R –related replay is thought to underlie memory consolidation. Here, we set out to explore how hippocampal CA1 pyramidal cells respond to the conditioned stimulus during trace eyeblink conditioning and how these responses manifest during SPW-Rs in awake adult female New Zealand White rabbits. Based on reports in rodents, we expected SPW-Rs to ta…
Time Unification on Local Binary Patterns Three Orthogonal Planes for Facial Expression Recognition
2019
International audience; Machine learning has known a tremendous growth within the last years, and lately, thanks to that, some computer vision algorithms started to access what is difficult or even impossible to perceive by the human eye. While deep learning based computer vision algorithms have made themselves more and more present in the recent years, more classical feature extraction methods, such as the ones based on Local Binary Patterns (LBP), still present a non negligible interest, especially when dealing with small datasets. Furthermore, this operator has proven to be quite useful for facial emotions and human gestures recognition in general. Micro-Expression (ME) classification is…
