Impact of endometrial compaction on reproductive outcomes after cryotransfer of euploid embryos in a modified natural cycle: protocol for a prospective cohort study.

Introduction: Embryo implantation is a complex and poorly understood process. Most studies to date have focused on the analysis of the endometrium at the end of the estrogenic phase, while the available data on its importance after secretory transformation are limited and inconsistent. Current evidence does not allow for a conclusive interpretation of the changes observed in the pre-implantation endometrium, whether in the natural or replacement cycle, and their relevance in the development of a pregnancy or the implications for clinical practice.

Impact of adherence to Mediterranean diet and/or drug treatment on glycaemic control in type 2 diabetes mellitus patients: DM2-CUMCYL study.

Aims: This study aimed to analyse the association between adherence to treatment and glycaemic control in people with type 2 diabetes mellitus.

Methods: Multicentre, cross-sectional study in patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus recruited by primary care professionals in Castilla y León (Spain). Sociodemographic and clinical characteristics were reflected in self-reported questionnaire, which included the Morisky-Green Medication Adherence Scale and the 14-point Mediterranean Diet Adherence Screener.

Clinical applicability and cost-effectiveness of DIABSCORE in screening for type 2 diabetes in primary care.

Aims: To evaluate the applicability and cost-effectiveness of a clinical risk score (DIABSCORE) to screen for type 2 diabetes in primary care patients.

Methods: Multicenter cross-sectional study of 10,508 adult no previously diagnosed with diabetes, in 2 Spanish regions (Canary Islands and Valencian Community). The variables comprising DIABSCORE were age, waist to height ratio, family history of diabetes and gestational diabetes.

Design and Validation of a Low-Cost Telepathology System.

Objective: This work sought to evaluate the precision and repeatability of a telepathology prototype based on open software and hardware.

Materials And Methods: A prototype was designed with application in telepathology and telemicroscopy. Accuracy and prototype precision were evaluated by calculating the mean absolute error and the intraclass and repeatability correlation coefficients for a series of 190 displacements at 10, 25, 50, 75, and 100 μm.
