Stilbenes and resveratrol metabolites improve mitochondrial fatty acid oxidation defects in human fibroblasts
2014
International audience; Background: Inborn enzyme defects of mitochondrial fatty acid beta-oxidation (FAO) form a large group of genetic disorders associated to variable clinical presentations ranging from life-threatening pediatric manifestations up to milder late onset phenotypes, including myopathy. Very few candidate drugs have been identified in this group of disorders. Resveratrol (RSV) is a natural polyphenol with anti-oxidant and anti-inflammatory effects, recently shown to have beneficial metabolic properties in mice models. Our study explores its possible effects on FAO and mitochondrial energy metabolism in human cells, which are still very little documented.Methods: Using cells …

Perinatal management of gastroschisis
2014
Gastroschisis is an abdominal wall defect, typically located to the right of the umbilical cord, requiring an early surgical treatment shortly after birth. Affected patients can be identified during intrauterine life with US and should be delivered in referral hospitals where a multisciplinary approach can be provided, involving neonatologists, clinical geneticists, surgeons and other specialists. These patients require a complex management in Neonatal Intensive Care Unit (NICU) and a long term follow-up after discharge. Exceed the acute neonatal condition, gastroschisis has a good prognosis, if there are no overlapping complications, and it should be differentiated from omphalocele, burden…
Queratoconjuntivitis epidémicas en el trabajo. Reflexiones en torno a su manejo y catalogación
2019
Introducción: las conjuntivitis epidémicas presentan alto riesgo de contagio. Pueden tener etiología laboral. Objetivos: conocer datos epidemiológicos y cuantificar costes económicos; aportar información sobre manejo y catalogación. Material / Métodos: estudio descriptivo-retrospectivo de una serie de casos (contingencias profesionales) por conjuntivitis epidémica (CIE-9) durante 2014-2015 en FREMAP, que generaron procesos de incapacidad temporal. Resultados: sobre el total de patologías oftalmológicas laborales con baja, representaron el 1,6%. Mujeres 75%, sector servicios y 39 años de media. Bilateral 73% de los casos. El 46% recibió asistencia previa. Tratamiento médico 86,48% (colirios …
Revista de logopedia, foniatría y audiología
2006
Resumen Aunque es ya frecuente hablar de la pragmatica de los pacientes con dano cerebral lo cierto es que son bien pocos los analisis detallados y rigurosos de la produccion linguistica real de tales pacientes. En este trabajo presentamos un modelo de analisis pragmatico a partir de tres grabaciones realizadas a un pacientes con afasia motora. Analizamos la evolucion pragmatica mediante el registro cuantitativo de datos referidos al indice de participacion conversacional, al tipo de intervenciones, y al tipo de actos de habla. Se identifican como categorias especificas del habla afasica las «tareas de edicion»: actos borrador, actos proposicionales y actos activadores de inferencia (interj…
Double-application of platelet-rich plasma on bone healing in rabbits
2010
Objective: Platelet-rich plasma (PRP) is considered to enhance bone formation especially at early stages of wound healing, depending on the limited and short life-span of platelets and growth factors. The aim of this study was to evaluate efficacy of double-application of PRP (DA-PRP) on bone healing in a rabbit calvarial defect model. Study design: Twenty-eight rabbits, each had two surgically prepared calvarial bone defects (10mm diameter), were included in this study and randomly divided into six groups. Defects (n=56) were treated with single-application of PRP (SA-PRP)(n=10), SA-PRP and beta-tricalciumphosphate (SA-PRP+TCP)(n=10), DA-PRP (n=8), DA-PRP and beta-tricalciumphosphate (DA-P…
Hyperplastic Conotruncal Endocardial Cushions and Transposition of Great Arteries in Perlecan-Null Mice
2002
Perlecan is a heparan-sulfate proteoglycan abundantly expressed in pericellular matrices and basement membranes during development. Inactivation of the perlecan gene in mice is lethal at two developmental stages: around E10 and around birth. We report a high incidence of malformations of the cardiac outflow tract in perlecan-deficient embryos. Complete transposition of great arteries was diagnosed in 11 out of 15 late embryos studied (73%). Three of these 11 embryos also showed malformations of semilunar valves. Mesenchymal cells in the outflow tract were abnormally abundant in mutant embryos by E9.5, when the endocardial-mesenchymal transformation starts in wild-type embryos. At E10.5, mut…
Optimal die Design for Cold Extrusion Processes
1999
The design of cold extrusion processes requires the optimisation of several process variables in order to obtain a defect free product. The fulfilment of different objectives, such as the minimisation of forming loads or the homogeneity of the deformations, is highly requested. Nevertheless, several other relevant aspects of extrusion processes have to be taken into account and require a suitable optimisation of the process parameters and in particular of the die shape. In this paper, tool life has been assumed as the most relevant goal and an effective die design procedure as been setup. It is well known that fatigue cracking of the dies is the principal cause of dies failure in cold extru…

Electrochemically triggered iodide-vacancy BiOI film for selective extraction of iodide ion from aqueous solutions
2021
Abstract The effective extraction and regeneration of radioactive iodide remains an urgent concern for safe nuclear energy utilization. Herein, we developed a novel electrochemically triggered iodide-vacancy BiOI film, which exhibited excellent I− ion extraction capacity of 328.3 mg·g−1. Especially, due to the ion vacancy trap effect, the film showed high selectivity towards I− ions in the existence of a large number of competitive anions. Additionally, the electrochemically switched ion extraction (ESIE) process with this iodide-vacancy BiOI film possessed fast extraction kinetics and high stability. More importantly, the trapped I− ions were easily desorbed from the film without the secon…
