This study investigates birthdate patterns in a context of well-established civil registers and intensive migration inflows. Leveraging extensive Spanish microdata on residential variation flows and the Spanish Municipality Register, this research reveals new facets of the distributions of immigrants' birthdates across days of the month that differ significantly from those of non-migrants. The registered days of the month for birthdates are categorized into six distinct types based on the assumption that the anomalous distributions of birthdates will display rounding or simplifying patterns (digit preferences).

- A 26-year-old man with Ehlers-Danlos syndrome and chronic ear infections faced a complex medical situation after a car accident that led to a leg amputation and leg fracture requiring surgical fixation.
- He presented with severe pain and discharge from the injured area, but initial antibiotic treatments did not improve his condition, leading to further medical evaluations.
- Ultimately, he was diagnosed with a rare infection caused by Mycobacterium goodii, which improved with targeted antibiotic therapy, highlighting the difficulties in diagnosing infections in patients with compromised immune systems.
Pharmacology has broadened its scope considerably in recent decades. Initially, it was of interest to chemists, doctors and pharmacists. In recent years, however, it has been incorporated into the teaching of biologists, molecular biologists, biotechnologists, chemical engineers and many health professionals, among others.

Insulin-like growth factor II (IGF-II) has been proven to have antioxidant and neuroprotective effects in some neurodegenerative diseases, including PD. Consequently, there isgrowing interest in understanding the different mechanisms involved in the neuroprotective effect of this hormone.

- The big data revolution allows for the collection and analysis of massive datasets, but data protection laws pose challenges to this potential.
- A new database called DEMOSPA0521 was created by processing over 868 million demographic records from Spain spanning 17 years (2005-2021).
- This database consists of 15 files with various datasets related to population statistics, along with R-Code files for summarizing the data, enabling both validation of previous findings and exploration of new research questions.
