Evolución de la normativa de la investigación Biomédica en España
2018
The ratification by the Spanish State of the ?Oviedo Convention? in 1999 implies a commitment to adapt to the legislation on biomedicine, since the normative instruments that respect it: guarantee the rights and fundamental freedoms of all and ensure dignity and identity of human beings. The object of this paper is the analysis of the Spanish normative norm in the field of research in human beings.
El consentimiento en el proceso penal : ¿un oxímoron?
2021
We are involved in a moment of deep changes in Criminal Procedure due, among other reasons, to the permanent expansion of Criminal Law. Legislative modifications have taken place one another over the world and they have led to a functional reformulation of the role played by the protagonists of Criminal Procedure. These changes have not finished yet and the future is still to come, but new elements are already emerging: the consent of the actors of the process and of the victims and the reinforcement of the principle of opportunity are undoubtedly some of them. Probation, diversion, compliance, criminal mediation are institutions that stand on the principle of consent for procedural purpose…
La nueva oportunidad de la hipoteca inversa
2021
The reverse mortgage is a credit or loan guaranteed by a mortgage that falls on the applicant?s habitual residence, granted at once, or through periodic benefits, to a person who must be over a certain age or prove a degree of disability or dependency, and is not due until the time of death. In view of the doubts that the future of the public pension is raising and the concentration of savings in Spanish property, the reverse mortgage is once again being put on the table as a viable alternative to complement a public pension with little revaluation, in view of the increase in life expectancy and expenses after retirement.
Un cuento de robots : La hija cibernética de descartes
2021
French philosopher René Descartes is today valued as a forerunner of the studies of human mind, artificial intelligence and robotic systems. Throughout his work there are large references to automata and the possibility of artificial life, as well as an assessment of the differences between rational behavior of human beings and the purely mechanical of animals and automata. In addition to these references, there is a fable about the creation by the philosopher of an automaton that replicated his deceased daughter Francine, a story that is well known among the French and Anglo-Saxon specialists, but not so much in the Spanish ones, which is what settles this short work
Development of Artificial Intelligence Methods for Clinical Genomics
2022
El presente trabajo de investigación se centra en la identificación de puntos de majora de los actuales sistemas de análisis genético y de recuento cellular para laboratorio. Analiza las diferentes metodologías existentes a través de encuestas a expertos, investigación bibliográfica y experimentos comparativos. Posteriormente propone varias metodologías mejoradas para recuento celular basadas en inteligencia artificial aplicada al análisis de imágen y para automatización de análisis genéticos en sistemas de secuenciación masiva NGS. El trabajo también propone varias optimizaciones para interpretación de variantes genéticas mediante inteligencia artificial a partir de una variación de la met…
Self-Organized Linguistic Systems: From traditional AI to bottom-up generative processes
2018
Este trabajo busca explorar el potencial de los procesos generativos bottom-up en el contexto de la producción conlang, con el objetivo de describir las bases de un nuevo campo de investigación: los Sistemas Lingüísticos Autoorganizados o SOLS, específicamente bajo la perspectiva doble de sistemas autoorganizados y lenguajes construidos. El enfoque SOLS proporciona un marco para la creación de lenguajes artificiales autogenerados y puede servir como punto de partida para el desarrollo de lenguajes dependientes del contexto o específicos del dominio. Reconoce que el desarrollo de conlangs puede ocurrir en sociedades artificiales de agentes simples, como resultado de interacciones sociales en…
Central nervous system involvement at first relapse in patients with acute promyelocytic leukemia treated with all-trans retinoic acid and anthracycl…
2009
Background The prevalence of and risk factors for central nervous system recurrence in patients with acute promyelocytic leukemia are not well established and remain a controversial matter. Design and Methods Between 1996 and 2005, 739 patients with newly diagnosed acute promyelocytic leukemia enrolled in two consecutive trials (PETHEMA LPA96 and LPA99) received induction therapy-with all-trans retinoic acid and idarubicin. Consolidation therapy comprised three courses of anthracycline monochemotherapy (LPA96), with all-trans retinoic acid and reinforced doses of idarubicin in patients with an intermediate or high risk of relapse (LPA99). Central nervous system prophylaxis was not given. Re…
Safety Evaluation of α-Lipoic Acid Supplementation: A Systematic Review and Meta-Analysis of Randomized Placebo-Controlled Clinical Studies
2020
Alpha-lipoic acid (ALA) is a natural short-chain fatty acid that has attracted great attention in recent years as an antioxidant molecule. However, some concerns have been recently raised regarding its safety profile. To address the issue, we aimed to assess ALA safety profile through a systematic review of the literature and a meta-analysis of the available randomized placebo-controlled clinical studies. The literature search included EMBASE, PubMed Medline, SCOPUS, Google Scholar, and ISI Web of Science by Clarivate databases up to 15th August 2020. Data were pooled from 71 clinical studies, comprising 155 treatment arms, which included 4749 subjects with 2558 subjects treated with ALA an…
Posttraumatic carotid-cavernous fistula: Pathogenetic mechanisms, diagnostic management and proper treatment. A case report.
2016
Journal Article; UNLABELLED Carotid-cavernous fistulas are an uncommon diseases characterized by abnormal communications between arteries and veins located in the cavernous sinus. According with Barrow´s classification they could be divided in two groups: direct and indirect. The typical symptoms showed by theses pathologies are: pulsating exophthalmos and orbital blow. The present study describes a case of direct posttraumatic carotid-cavernous fistula in a 26 years old man. Furthermore, we present the images that we used to make the diagnosis. In this light, we decided to treat this case with endovascular approach after considering several therapeutic options. The aim of the present repor…
Perspectives for the Treatment of Brucellosis in the 21st Century: The Ioannina Recommendations
2007
Policy Forum. Competing interests: ER has received research grants from Daiichi, Bayer, and Theravance and has served as a consultant to Pfizer, Theravance, Bayer, Wyeth, Rosetta, and BiondVax. Summary Points Brucellosis remains the commonest anthropozoonosis worldwide, and its treatment remains complex, requiring protracted administration of more than one antibiotic. In November 2006, a consensus meeting aimed at reaching a common specialist statement on the treatment of brucellosis was held in Ioannina, Greece under the auspices of the International Society of Chemotherapy and the Institute of Continuing Medical Education of Ioannina. The author panel suggests that the optimal treatment o…
