Global collaborative networks on meta-analyses of randomized trials published in high impact factor medical journals: a social network analysis
2014
Abstract Background Research collaboration contributes to the advancement of knowledge by exploiting the results of scientific efforts more efficiently, but the global patterns of collaboration on meta-analysis are unknown. The purpose of this research was to describe and characterize the global collaborative patterns in meta-analyses of randomized trials published in high impact factor medical journals over the past three decades. Methods This was a cross-sectional, social network analysis. We searched PubMed for relevant meta-analyses of randomized trials published up to December 2012. We selected meta-analyses (including at least randomized trials as primary evidence source) published in…
On the power and the systematic biases of the detection of chromosomal inversions by paired-end genome sequencing
2013
One of the most used techniques to study structural variation at a genome level is paired-end mapping (PEM). PEM has the advantage of being able to detect balanced events, such as inversions and translocations. However, inversions are still quite difficult to predict reliably, especially from high-throughput sequencing data. We simulated realistic PEM experiments with different combinations of read and library fragment lengths, including sequencing errors and meaningful base-qualities, to quantify and track down the origin of false positives and negatives along sequencing, mapping, and downstream analysis. We show that PEM is very appropriate to detect a wide range of inversions, even with …
Notice of Violation of IEEE Publication Principles: Distributed Multimedia Digital Libraries on Peer-to-Peer Networks
2007
This paper presents an original approach to image sharing in large, distributed digital libraries, in which a user is able to interactively search interesting resources by means of content-based image retrieval techniques. The approach described here addresses the issues arising when the content is managed through a peer-to-peer architecture. In this case, the retrieval facilities are likely to be limited to queries based on unique identifiers or small sets of keywords, which may be quite inadequate, so we propose a novel algorithm for routing user queries that exploits compact representations of multimedia resources shared by each peer in order to dynamically adapt the network topology to …
Scientific studies on writing in second language learning (2005-2017)
2019
Este artículo revisa críticamente las líneas temáticas que desde 2005 hasta 2017 se han publicado sobre Second Language Writing (SLW) con el objetivo de presentar un análisis de las tendencias predominantes en las publicaciones indexadas en SCOPUS. Como metodología de estudio se ha procedido a la selección de aquellas contribuciones que han recibido 60 citas o más. De la revisión de literatura científica realizada se concluye que son tres las líneas de investigación mayoritarias: el proceso de composición o redacción del texto escrito; la retroalimentación que el docente ofrece al aprendiz; y la escritura en línea de una L2. Las conclusiones señalan la necesidad de profundizar en la investi…
Cloning and characterization of a cDNA coding forCandida albicanspolyubiquitin
1996
Immunoscreening of a Candida albicans cDNA library in the expression vector lambda gt11 with rabbit polyclonal antibodies against the 37 kDa cell surface laminin receptor of C albicans resulted in the isolation of a cDNA clone of 0.9 kb. Sequencing of this clone demonstrated a full length open reading frame encoding the polyubiquitin, which contains three tandem copies, head-to-tail spacerless repeats, of the 228 nucleotides coding for the 76 amino acids of the ubiquitin protein, which is identical to that of Saccharomyces cerevisiae. The third copy possesses an extra C-terminal amino acid which is distinct to that found in S. cerevisiae. Northern blot analysis revealed a single mRNA popula…
Smart Tools for Academic Information Seeking
2016
Systematic information seeking is an essential part of academic work. Research and information seeking go hand in hand, and both need planning. In the academic world you can hardly avoid the research plan, but you probably won’t hear that much about the information seeking plan. The information seeking plan guides you through the research process from the first sparks of an idea to the last dot in the bibliography from the point of view of the often invisible process of systematic information seeking.Systematic Information Seeking Framework designed in the Jyväskylä University Library has its roots in Carol Kuhlthau's Guided Inquiry Design Process. Our model, designed for more contextual ad…
The model for public television and the young audience’s expectations. Differences between Great Britain and Spain in the perception of qualities and…
2017
Public service media (PSM) are in crisis throughout Europe. As a scenario for research, the two extremes of the background have been chosen: the first, BBC, is at the heart of media system, has become a model for the others and has just finished the particularly delicate challenge of renewal the fundamental law that is to rule over the next ten years; the second is on the periphery of public television, and in the extreme circumstances in Spain that have driven some of the television corporations to extinction, such as Canal 9 -Radiotelevisió Valenciana (RTVV). Using a method based on the use of semi-structured interviews and Delphi, the conception of these media models among their respecti…
ISARIC-COVID-19 dataset: A Prospective, Standardized, Global Dataset of Patients Hospitalized with COVID-19
2022
The International Severe Acute Respiratory and Emerging Infection Consortium (ISARIC) COVID-19 dataset is one of the largest international databases of prospectively collected clinical data on people hospitalized with COVID-19. This dataset was compiled during the COVID-19 pandemic by a network of hospitals that collect data using the ISARIC-World Health Organization Clinical Characterization Protocol and data tools. The database includes data from more than 705,000 patients, collected in more than 60 countries and 1,500 centres worldwide. Patient data are available from acute hospital admissions with COVID-19 and outpatient follow-ups. The data include signs and symptoms, pre-existing como…

Pour une approche qualitative du sensible
2016
International audience; En sciences humaines et sociales, une production extrêmement abondante concerne l’attractivité et la valorisation du sensoriel et du sensible sur un plan anthropologique (Laplantine, 2005 ; Auge, 2014), sociologique (Le Breton, 2006 ; Lipovestky, 2015), en sémiotique (Landowski, 1998 ; Fontanille, 2004) ou en marketing (Giboreau, 2008), sans même aller chercher des ressources psychologiques ou psychanalytiques. Dans sa richesse et sa complexité, dans l’unité aussi à rechercher, au sein du sensible, ce sont autant d’objets et d’espaces qui s’ouvrent pour la recherche en communication, que de problématiques d’ordre épistémologique, conceptuel, méthodologique, opératoir…
