Consumo de medicamentos en el embarazo y riesgo de anomalías congénitas en la Comunitat Valenciana
2017
Resumen: Antecedentes: El consumo de medicamentos durante el embarazo se ha incrementado en las últimas décadas. Objetivo: Identificar el riesgo de anomalías congénitas (AC) asociado a la utilización de medicamentos en atención ambulatoria en embarazadas residentes en la Comunitat Valenciana. Métodos: Estudio de casos-controles, considerando caso a menores de un año nacidos vivos en 2009-2010 diagnosticados de AC y residentes en la Comunitat Valenciana, obtenidos del registro poblacional de AC. Los controles se seleccionaron del Registro de Metabolopatías y la medicación prescrita y dispensada se obtuvo del módulo Gestión Integral de Prestación Farmacéutica. Se calcularon las odds ratio (OR…

Resumen La evaluacion y prevencion del riesgo cardiovascular (RCV) que persiste en los pacientes con dislipidemia a pesar del tratamiento y de haber alcanzado los objetivos especificos de la concentracion plasmatica de colesterol unido a lipoproteinas de baja densidad (c-LDL) es un reto clinico en la actualidad, y sugiere que los biomarcadores lipidicos convencionales resultan insuficientes para una evaluacion precisa del RCV. Mas alla de su contenido lipidico, existen otras caracteristicas propias de las particulas lipoproteicas que determinan su potencial aterogenico y su influencia en el RCV. Sin embargo, dichas caracteristicas adicionales no pueden ser analizadas por las tecnicas utiliz…
Sense of coherence and styles of coping with stress in youth brought up in educational care facilities and in family homes
2019
Introduction: The article concerns sense of coherence and styles of coping with stress in group of adolescents brought up in children’s homes and in family homes. Short characteristic of functioning of youth from educational care facilities was presented in the first part of the text. The functions of children’s homes and family homes are described. Concept of sense of coherence and coping with stress in in research on youth was discussed. Method: The level of sense of coherence and styles of coping with stress in youth brought up in educational care facilities and in family homes were compared. A group of 90 teenagers aged 15-19 was examined using the SOC-29 and CISS questionnaires. The an…
Intelligence artificielle : quel avenir en anatomie pathologique ?
2019
Resume Les techniques d’intelligence artificielle et en particulier les reseaux de neurones profonds (Deep Learning) sont en pleine emergence dans le domaine biomedical. Les reseaux de neurones s’inspirent du modele biologique, ils sont interconnectes entre eux et suivent des modeles mathematiques. Lors de l’utilisation des reseaux de neurones artificiels, deux phases sont necessaires : une phase d’apprentissage et une phase d’exploitation. Les deux principales applications sont la classification et la regression. Des outils informatiques comme les processeurs graphiques accelerateurs de calcul ou des bibliotheques de developpement specifiques ont donne un nouveau souffle a ces techniques. …

Biodeterioration
2017
The biodeterioration of organic and inorganic materials, as well as polymers, is a complex of alteration processes induced by the growing and metabolic activ- ity of organisms. It can be recognized on monuments, wall paintings, stone, wood, paper, vegetal/animal fibers, and parchment artworks. As defined by Hueck (1968), biodeterioration is “any undesirable change in the properties of a material caused by the vital activities of organisms”; this definition is accepted as the meaning of the phenomenon. Both macroorganisms (such as animals, plants and mosses) and microorganisms (such as autotrophic or het- erotrophic bacteria, microfungi, cyanobacteria, algae and lichens) represent the trigge…
The Effect of 5-Aminosalicylic Acid on Intestinal Microbiota
2020
Abstract The article discusses the possible relationships between intestinal microbiota and the therapeutic efficacy of 5-aminosalicylic acid (5-ASA) in inflammatory bowel diseases. Intestinal microbiota may be involved in 5-ASA enzymatic biotransformation, but the metabolism of drugs by the intestinal microbiota has been studied in less detail, and little is known about the relationships between anti-inflammatory efficacy of 5-ASA with bacterial viability, quantity and activity. It remains unclear whether 5-ASA affects the microbiota depending on the different segments of gastrointestinal tract. Drugs and diet can both improve and worsen the composition of the intestinal microbiota. Howeve…
Betulinic Acid Exerts Cytotoxic Activity Against Multidrug-Resistant Tumor Cells via Targeting Autocrine Motility Factor Receptor (AMFR).
2018
Betulinic acid (BetA) is a naturally occurring pentacyclic triterpene isolated from the outer bark of white-barked birch trees and many other medicinal plants. Here, we studied betulinic acid's cytotoxic activity against drug-resistant tumor cell lines. P-glycoprotein (MDR1/ABCB1) and BCRP (ABCG2) are known ATP-binding cassette (ABC) drug transporters that mediating MDR. ABCB5 is a close relative to ABCB1, which also mediates MDR. Constitutive activation of the EGF receptor is tightly linked to the development of chemotherapeutic resistance. BetA inhibited P-gp, BCRP, ABCB5 and mutation activated EGFR overexpressing cells with similar efficacy as their drug-sensitive parental counterparts. …
