A morphometric tool applied to angiogenesis research based on vessel segmentation

2013

Given that angiogenesis and lymphangiogenesis are strongly related to prognosis in neoplastic and other pathologies, and that some existing methods for their study provide different results, we aim to construct a morphometric tool to allow complete and accurate quantification and measurement of different aspects of the shape and size of vascular vessels.

Revisión sistemática de la investigación sobre las relaciones entre el bienestar y desempeño laborales en Iberoamérica

2021

La psicología del trabajo y las organizaciones presta especial atención tanto al bienestar de los trabajadores, como a su eficacia y eficiencia. La presente revisión sistemática analiza un conjunto de estudios que se centran en la relación entre el bienestar y el desempeño laboral, en las organizaciones del ámbito iberoamericano. El análisis de los resultados obtenidos supone una aportación en varios ámbitos: 1) la riqueza en la operacionalización de dimensiones del bienestar y del desempeño en la disciplina; 2) la complejidad de las relaciones entre los dos constructos y la existencia de patrones que no se ajustan a lo establecido por la tesis del trabajador feliz y productivo;…

Socio-cultural factors and entrepreneurial activity

2011

Scholars who study entrepreneurship have lent great value by exploring the factors that explain how entrepreneurs create new businesses and thus, how societies and economies grow and prosper. Although there has considerable research based on psychological and economic approaches to entrepreneurship, the influence of socio-cultural factors on enterprise development remains under studied. Therefore, the aim of this paper is to integrate, from a theoretical perspective, the socio-cultural factors and entrepreneurial activity. In this sense, the article points out that the institutional approach could be an apt framework to develop future research analyzing the socio-cultural factors that influ…

Update on biomarkers for the detection of lung cancer

2017

Patients at risk for lung cancer may have subclinical disease for years before presentation. The diagnosis of this disease is primarily based on symptoms, and detection often occurs after curative intervention is no longer possible. At present, no lung cancer early-detection biomarker is clinically available. This study reviews the most recent advances in early detection and molecular diagnostic biomarkers for the detection of lung cancer. This review includes an overview of the various biological specimens and matrices in which these biomarkers could be analyzed, as well as the diverse strategies and approaches for identifying new biomarkers that are currently being explored. Several novel…

Miradas urbanas del profesorado iberoamericano desde la cultura visual

2018

We are interested in knowing if there is a proper view of the teaching staff towards the urban reality. We start with verbal and visual descriptions, through images and texts. The research has been developed in Santiago de Chile, Valencia, Lima, Medellin, Montevideo and Buenos Aires, and combines direct participatory actions with personal interviews. The methodology follows a mixed method and is based on a case study that is complemented by research based on the arts. We concluded that there is a particular view of the teaching group towards their own city, which is full of critical reflection. This is a topic that has been little addressed and needs more attention.

Finnish L2 proficiency for working life : towards research-based language education and supervision practices

2021

In all Nordic countries, the L2 proficiency needed at work has become a key area in the language education provided for adult immigrants. This paper is part of a series of articles that gives an overview of language policies and research activities in the Nordic countries related to L2 in working life, together with a presentation of novel empirical analyses. Here, the focus is on the Finnish perspective. The aims of this paper are twofold. First, it provides an overall picture of the policies and research findings underlying recent tendencies in Finnish L2 language education in/for working life. After this, the article presents two case studies of clinical supervision practices in health c…
