Efecto de un protocolo de fisioterapia para la recuperación del equilibrio y la marcha tras ictus en personas mayores basado en criterios clínico-fun…

2016

El ictus es una de las principales causas de discapacidad en todo el mundo. La edad se considera el marcador de riesgo más importante ya que aumenta exponencialmente su incidencia. La investigación futura debe esclarecer qué técnicas fisioterápicas específicas son más adecuadas para la recuperación funcional tras ictus. El objetivo de esta tesis doctoral fue estudiar el efecto de un protocolo de intervención fisioterápica basado en criterios clínico-funcionales junto con técnicas específicas de estimulación de la planta del pie parético, disociación del movimiento y entrenamiento del equilibrio en la recuperación funcional de las personas mayores con hemiplejia tras ictus en las fases aguda…

European Integration and Inequality among Countries: A Lifecycle Income Analysis

2012

We analyze the effects of the expansions of the European Union on inequality using an approach based on individuals' lifecycle incomes. This allows us to consider the effect of different rates of growth and survival rates. This differs form the usual analyses of inequality that focus on the evolution of current per capita income for the period. Our results show that inequality in terms of permanent income was substantially less than in current per capita income at the time of all the expansions except those of the last ten years. The results point to the key role of policies that stimulate growth in the less developed countries. With an annual β-convergence of 2% in current income, inequali…

A VR-Enhanced Rollover Car Simulator and Edutainment Application for Increasing Seat Belt Use Awareness

2021

Most countries have active road safety policies that seek the objective of reducing deaths in traffic accidents. One of the main factors in this regard is the awareness of the safety measures, one of the most important being the correct usage of the seat belt, a device that is known to save thousands of lives every year. The presented work shows a VR-enhanced edutainment application designed to increase awareness on the use of seat belts. For this goal, a motorized rollover system was developed that, synchronized with a VR application (shown in a head-mounted display for each user inside a real car), rolls over this car with up to four passengers inside. This way, users feel the sensations …

Human Factor Interrelationships to Improve Worker Reliability: Implementation of MCDM in the Agri-Food Sector

2023

Performance Shaping Factors (PSFs) are contextual, individual, and cognitive factors used in Human Reliability Analysis (HRA) to quantify the worker contribution to errors when performing a generic task. Although the empirical evidence demonstrates the existence of PSF interrelationships, the majority of HRA methods assume their independence. As a consequence, the resulting Human Error Probability (HEP) might be over- or underestimated. To deal with this issue, only a few qualitative guidelines or statistical-based approaches have been proposed so far. While the former are not well structured, the latter require a high computational effort and a proper number of input data. Therefore, the p…

Nonlinear Pulse Shaping in Optical Fibres with a Neural Network

2020

We use a supervised machine-learning model based on a neural network to solve the direct and inverse problems relating to the shaping of optical pulses that occurs upon nonlinear propagation in optical fibres.

PVAmpliconFinder: a workflow for the identification of human papillomaviruses from high-throughput amplicon sequencing

2019

Abstract Background The detection of known human papillomaviruses (PVs) from targeted wet-lab approaches has traditionally used PCR-based methods coupled with Sanger sequencing. With the introduction of next-generation sequencing (NGS), these approaches can be revisited to integrate the sequencing power of NGS. Although computational tools have been developed for metagenomic approaches to search for known or novel viruses in NGS data, no appropriate tool is available for the classification and identification of novel viral sequences from data produced by amplicon-based methods. Results We have developed PVAmpliconFinder, a data analysis workflow designed to rapidly identify and classify kno…
