In Vitro and In Vivo Regulation of SRD5A mRNA Expression of Supercritical Carbon Dioxide Extract from Asparagus racemosus Willd. Root as Anti-Sebum a…

2022

Oily skin from overactive sebaceous glands affects self-confidence and personality. There is report of an association between steroid 5-alpha reductase gene (SRD5A) expression and facial sebum production. There is no study of the effect of Asparagus racemosus Willd. root extract on the regulation of SRD5A mRNA expression and anti-sebum efficacy. This study extracted A. racemosus using the supercritical carbon dioxide fluid technique with ethanol and investigated its biological compounds and activities. The A. racemosus root extract had a high content of polyphenolic compounds, including quercetin, naringenin, and p-coumaric acid, and DPPH scavenging activity comparable to that of the standa…

RPB1 as a marker gene to analyze communities of arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi (Glomeromycota)

2014

The influence of agricultural practice on the diversity of Arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi (AMF, Glomeromycota) continues to be an important research question as these mutualistic symbionts are known to improve plant growth and soil quality. To this day, studies of community diversity in AMF have exclusively been based on nuclear ribosomal gene regions, such as the small and large subunits and the ITS region. In the Glomeromycota, these regions show high intra-organism polymorphism, which can seriously complicate interpretation of diversity data. We chose the rpb1 gene as an alternative marker as this putative single-copy gene has been shown to be monomorphic within fungal isolates but shows a…

Lesiones bucales en un grupo de pacientes con trasplante renal

2005

Objetivo: Determinar la prevalencia de lesiones de la mucosa bucal (LB) en un grupo de pacientes con trasplante renal (TR), y analizar las posibles asociaciones de las lesiones entre sí, con el uso de fármacos y con variables clínicas y de laboratorio relevantes. Metodología. Estudio transversal, en el que se examinó a pacientes consecutivos con TR de la consulta de nefrología de un hospital General de Zona del Instituto Mexicano del Seguro Social. Se determinó la frecuencia y el tipo de lesiones bucales. Se analizaron las posibles asociaciones de las LB entre sí y con la cuenta de leucocitos totales, la función renal, el índice de higiene oral simplificado (IHO-S), los niveles de ciclospor…

Lesión periapical al implante: frecuencia, asociación de factores de riesgo y supervivencia tras el abordaje quirúrgico

2019

Objetivo Describir la frecuencia, los factores de riesgo potencialmente asociados a la lesión periapical al implante (LPI) y la supervivencia al menos un año tras el tratamiento quirúrgico de la LPI, así como analizar los factores de fracaso tras el tratamiento. Material y método Se realizó un estudio ambispectivo de casos y controles para describir la frecuencia y los factores de riesgo potencialmente asociados a la LPI, recogiendo la información de los pacientes que recibieron tratamiento implantológico entre 1996 y 2016, siguiendo la declaración de STROBE. Las variables recogidas se obtuvieron del historial médico y de las radiografías: diagnóstico de la LPI (salud/LPI), sexo, edad, tipo…

Análisis del comportamiento mecánico in vitro de prótesis parciales fijas sobre implantes dentales con cuello convergente y conexión interna transmuc…

2022

Objetivos: El propósito de la investigación fue analizar a través de un estudio in vitro el comportamiento mecánico de 4 uniones distintas en la interfase pilar implante sobre prótesis parciales fijas con dos implantes dentales (cuello convergente y conexión interna transmucosa) y un voladizo posterior tras unos test de fatiga mecánica y posterior carga compresiva. Material y método: Se realizó un estudio in vitro con 4 grupos, grupo 1 atornillado directo (AD), grupo 2, atornillado In (AIN), grupo 3 cementado In (CIN) y grupo 4 cementado directo (CD) utilizando 19 muestras por grupo con dos implantes cada uno y sus respectivas prótesis. Tras el diseño en Cad-Cam de las muestras y su posteri…

Trasplante de córnea: aspectos bioéticos

2019

Resumen: Este trabajo aborda los aspectos bioéticos del trasplante de córnea, desde la donación y los tipos de la misma, incluyendo el comercio de órganos y tejidos, así como la metodología del trasplante y el uso de tratamientos inmunosupresores, además del consentimiento informado y la participación del paciente en las decisiones. Se analizan las técnicas actuales, la efectividad y las circunstancias en las que se puede aplicar cada una de ellas así como los estudios emergentes basados en la terapia celular. Algunos de los estudios emplean células troncales derivadas de embriones humanos, y otras de tejidos adultos y células troncales pluripotentes inducidas (iPS). Se propone un análisis …

Predictors of mortality and early detection strategies for hepatopulmonary syndrome in liver transplant patients☆

2016

Introduction: Hepatopulmonary syndrome (HPS) is a serious, progressive disease. Its pathophysiology resides in a hypoxic intrapulmonary shunt and severe clinical deterioration. Liver transplantation (LT) is the only effective treatment in appropriately selected patients. Objective: To acknowledge the importance of early diagnosis of HPS. Patients and methods: Observational, descriptive, retrospective trial including 8 patients with HPS that received LT between April 2006 and August 2014. The clinical data prior to transplantation and follow-up after the procedure were reviewed. A multivariate analysis (stepwise forward logistic regression analysis) was used to identify the variable that cou…

Narrow-diameter implants: Are they a predictable treatment option? A literature review

2013

Objective: To evaluate the predictability of narrow-diameter implants as a treatment option in routine clinical practice. A literature review was performed of studies reporting clinical results obtained with these implants. Survival rates, peri-implant bone loss and related complications were evaluated. The working hypothesis was that narrow-diameter implants offer clinical results similar to those obtained with implants of greater diameter. Material and Methods: A Medline-PubMed search covering the period between 2002 and 2012 was carried out. Studies published in English and with a follow-up period of at least 12 months were considered for inclusion. A manual search was also conducted in …

Impact of donor-recipient age on cardiac transplant survival. Subanalysis of the Spanish Heart Transplant Registry.

2020

[Abstract] Introduction and objectives. The age of heart transplant recipients and donors is progressively increasing. It is likely that not all donor-recipient age combinations have the same impact on mortality. The objective of this work was to compare survival in transplant recipients according to donor-recipient age combinations. Methods. We performed a retrospective analysis of transplants performed between 1 January 1993 and 31 December 2017 in the Spanish Heart Transplant Registry. Pediatric transplants, retransplants and combined transplants were excluded (6505 transplants included). Four groups were considered: a) donor < 50 years for recipient < 65 years; b) donor < 50 years for r…
