Economic preferences and cognitive abilities among teenagers in Spain.

This dataset originates from TeensLab, a consortium of Spanish Universities dedicated to behavioral research involving Spanish teenagers. The dataset contains data from 33 distinct educational institutions across Spain, accounting for a total of 5,890 students aged 10 to 23 (M = 14.10, SD = 1.

Nonequilibrium microbial dynamics unveil a new macroecological pattern beyond Taylor's law.

We introduce a comprehensive analytical benchmark, relying on Fokker-Planck formalism, to study microbial dynamics in the presence of both biotic and abiotic forces. In equilibrium, we observe a balance between the two kinds of forces, leading to no correlations between species abundances. This implies that real microbiomes, where correlations have been observed, operate out of equilibrium.

Three-dimensional distribution of aerosols of multiple types at daily scale using TROPOMI spaceborne observations.

We present new satellite-based daily observations of the 3D distribution of aerosols from most common types and origins, both over land and ocean, derived from TROpospheric Ozone Monitoring Instrument (TROPOMI) measurements. This is done using the so-called AEROS5P (AEROsol Sentinel 5 Precursor) approach which retrieves vertical profiles of aerosol extinction from passive measurements of high-resolution spectral reflectance in the visible and near infrared for cloud-free conditions. Previous work demonstrated the potential of this approach, but it was initially applicable only to biomass burning aerosols with limited spatial coverage over ocean.

Diaphragmatic Paralysis After Heterotopic Bicaval Stenting.

Heterotopic bicaval stenting offers an alternative therapeutic approach for indirectly addressing the systemic effects of tricuspid regurgitation (TR) in patients with severe symptomatic TR, despite optimal medical therapy. In this report, we describe 2 cases of procedure-related unilateral diaphragmatic paralysis, a clinically important complication not previously documented in the literature.

Long-Term Results of Bioresorbable Vascular Scaffolds in Patients With In-Stent Restenosis: The RIBS VI Study.

Background: In patients with in-stent restenosis (ISR) bioresorbable vascular scaffolds (BVS) provide similar results to drug-coated balloons (DCBs) but are inferior to drug-eluting stents (DES) at 1 year. However, the long-term efficacy of BVS in these patients remains unknown.

Objectives: This study sought to assess the long-term safety and efficacy of BVS in patients with ISR.

Vulnerable plaque features and adverse events in patients with diabetes mellitus: a post hoc analysis of the COMBINE OCT-FFR trial.

Background: Thin-cap fibroatheroma (TCFA) lesions are associated with a high risk of future major adverse cardiovascular events. However, the impact of other optical coherence tomography-detected vulnerability features (OCT-VFs) and their interplay with TCFA in predicting adverse events remains unknown.

Aims: We aimed to evaluate the individual as well as the combined prognostic impact of OCT-VFs in predicting the incidence of the lesion-oriented composite endpoint (LOCE) in non-ischaemic lesions in patients with diabetes mellitus (DM).

Social exclusion concepts, measurement, and a global estimate.

Multiple estimates exist of global monetary and multidimensional poverty, but populations at risk of social exclusion still lack a worldwide estimate. This paper fills this gap by providing the first estimates of the share and number of populations at risk of social exclusion worldwide. The paper contributes to the literature in three important respects.

Sparse species interactions reproduce abundance correlation patterns in microbial communities.

During the last decades, macroecology has identified broad-scale patterns of abundances and diversity of microbial communities and put forward some potential explanations for them. However, these advances are not paralleled by a full understanding of the dynamical processes behind them. In particular, abundance fluctuations of different species are found to be correlated, both across time and across communities in metagenomic samples.

Calcified Nodule: A Rare Clinical Diagnosis in Patients Presenting With ST-Segment Elevation Myocardial Infarction.

Calcified nodules (CNs) represent the least common cause of acute coronary syndrome. Furthermore, case reports describing CNs as the underlying cause for ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction are exceptional. We present a patient with ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction caused by a CN and outline the corresponding diagnostic angiographic and intracoronary imaging findings.

Ulnar nerve mononeuropathy in a patient with Hansen's disease: Clinical and radiological features.

Leprosy is a chronic infection caused by bacteria called . This is a prevalent disease in low-income countries, and it has not been completely eradicated. We present the case of a 29-year-old man with a previous diagnosis of Hansen's disease, who consulted for pain in the left elbow and wrist, associated with fever with preserved mobility and pain on palpation.

The Clinical Profile of Patients with COPD Is Conditioned by Age.

In recent years, many studies have analyzed the importance of integrating time, or aging, into the equation that relates genetics and the environment to the development and origin of COPD. Under conditions of daily clinical practice, our study attempts to identify the differences in the clinical profile of patients with COPD according to age and the impact on the global burden of the disease. This study is non-interventional and observational, using artificial intelligence and data captured from electronic medical records.

Trends in the decapod crustacean community at the southernmost estuary of the Atlantic coast of Europe.

Climate change may enhance the establishment of introduced species, as well as the poleward shift in distribution of numerous species over decades. Long-term research and monitoring of an ecosystem at the southernmost point of the Atlantic coast of Europe should be an important priority in order to detect and understand trends in species composition and the related environmental changes. The Guadalquivir estuary (South West Spain) is more likely to suffer the exacerbated effects of climate change due to its location in the Mediterranean-climate zone.

Clinical comparison of a handheld cardiac ultrasound device for the assessment of left ventricular function.

Purpose: Recently developed handheld ultrasound devices (HHUD) represent a promising method to evaluate the cardiovascular abnormalities at the point of care. However, this technology has not been rigorously evaluated. The aim of this study was to explore the correlation and the agreement between the LVEF (Left Ventricular Ejection Fraction) visually assessed by a moderately experienced sonographer using an HHUD compared to the routine LVEF assessment performed at the Echocardiography Laboratory.

Stability of the personal relationship networks in a longitudinal study of middle school students.

The personal network of relationships is structured in circles of friendships, that go from the most intense relationships to the least intense ones. While this is a well established result, little is known about the stability of those circles and their evolution in time. To shed light on this issue, we study the temporal evolution of friendships among teenagers during two consecutive academic years by means of a survey administered on five occasions.

Infrared optical signature reveals the source-dependency and along-transport evolution of dust mineralogy as shown by laboratory study.

Advancing knowledge of the mineralogical composition of dust is key for understanding and predicting its climate and environmental impacts. The variability of dust mineralogy from one source to another and its evolution during atmospheric transport is not measured at large scale. In this study we use laboratory measurements to demonstrate that the extinction signature of suspended dust aerosols in the 740 - 1250 cm atmospheric window can be used to derive dust mineralogy in terms of the main infrared - active minerals, namely quartz, clays, feldspars and calcite.

Identification of potential invasive alien species in Spain through horizon scanning.

Invasive alien species have widespread impacts on native biodiversity and ecosystem services. Since the number of introductions worldwide is continuously rising, it is essential to prevent the entry, establishment and spread of new alien species through a systematic examination of future potential threats. Applying a three-step horizon scanning consensus method, we evaluated non-established alien species that could potentially arrive, establish and cause major ecological impact in Spain within the next 10 years.
