The PREDIMED-Plus trial was supported by the European Research Council (Advanced Research grant 2014–2019; agreement #340918; granted to M.Á.M.-G.); the official Spanish institutions for funding scientific biomedical research, CIBER Fisiopatología de la Obesidad y Nutrición (CIBEROBN) and Instituto de Salud Carlos III (ISCIII) through the Fondo de Investigación para la Salud (FIS) which is co-funded by the European Regional Development Fund (coordinated FIS projects led by J.S-S. and J.V., including the following projects: PI13/00673, PI13/00492, PI13/00272, PI13/01123, PI13/00462, PI13/00233, PI13/02184, PI13/00728, PI13/01090, PI13/01056, PI14/01722, PI14/00636, PI14/00618, PI14/00696, PI…

“MIATA”—Minimal Information about T Cell Assays
2009
Immunotherapy, especially therapeutic vaccination, has a great deal of potential in the treatment of cancer and certain infectious diseases such as HIV (Allison et al., 2006; Fauci et al., 2008; Feldmann and Steinman, 2005). Numerous vaccine candidates have been tested in patients with a variety of tumor types and chronic viral diseases. Often, the best way to assess the clinical potential of these vaccines is to monitor the induced T cell response, and yet there are currently no standards for reporting these results. This letter is an effort to address this problem.
Stroke subtypes and their possible implication in stroke prevention drug strategies
2014
Thrombotic strokes can affect large or small arteries in the brain. Drugs to prevent atherosclerosis complication such as thrombotic strokes, should be drugs able to prevent the accumulation of intravascular fat, reduce vascular proliferation, decrease blood pressure levels with the resulting shear stress, reduce platelet aggregation, and possibly partially or totally reverse carotid plaques. Any of the commonly used antihypertensive drugs lower the incidence of stroke, with larger reductions in BP resulting in larger reductions in risk. Experimental and clinical data suggest that reducing the activity of the renin-angiotensin aldosterone system (RAAS) may have beneficial effects beyond the…
A precise stroke classification for evaluation of ischemic stroke subtypes and their relation with diabetes: is TOAST the best?
2010
To The Editor: Regarding the study by Turin et al1 performed to estimate the secular time trends in incidence using a population-based stroke registry in Japan, we discuss some issues of potential interest. First, have the authors classified stroke subtypes according TOAST classification or Oxfordshire classification? No mention has been made in the text concerning the classification methodology of ischemic stroke. It is conceivable that applying the TOAST classification2 of ischemic stroke (a classification with clinical, pathophysiological, anatomic, and instrumental basis that is easily applicable and widely validated) could provide a more precise selection of patients with lacunar strok…
Morir d'amore. Il nesso Amore/Morte nella poesia di Properzio
2012
In questo volume lo studio di una specifica topica elegiaca, il nesso Amore/Morte, viene affrontato nella sua più immediata ricorrenza a livello di struttura superficiale della poesia di Properzio, ma anche nelle sue interrelazioni con la struttura profonda del testo, cioè con l'ideologia dell’autore, che si esprime prevalentemente nella riflessione sulle condizioni dell'esistenza elegiaca. Si rileva così una tensione, che percorre l’intera opera del poeta umbro, verso la costruzione di un sistema etico, di un mondo morale elegiaco, che si serve di Amore e Morte in quanto immagini in grado di sostenere tale processo nel modo più autentico, sul piano degli atteggiamenti e sul versante più sp…

Non-invasive localization of atrial ectopic beats by using simulated body surface P-wave integral maps
2017
Non-invasive localization of continuous atrial ectopic beats remains a cornerstone for the treatment of atrial arrhythmias. The lack of accurate tools to guide electrophysiologists leads to an increase in the recurrence rate of ablation procedures. Existing approaches are based on the analysis of the P-waves main characteristics and the forward body surface potential maps (BSPMs) or on the inverse estimation of the electric activity of the heart from those BSPMs. These methods have not provided an efficient and systematic tool to localize ectopic triggers. In this work, we propose the use of machine learning techniques to spatially cluster and classify ectopic atrial foci into clearly diffe…
