This Honorary Note is dedicated to the 65th birthday of Ramón G. Rubio and summarizes some of his contributions to the current knowledge in the science and technology of colloids and interfaces. Since 1995, Ramón González Rubio is Full Professor at the Complutense University of Madrid (Spain) where he has developed an extensive research activity in different scientific and technological aspects related to colloidal systems and interfacial phenomena: from particle-laden interfaces to polyelectrolyte multilayers, including the kinetics of simultaneous spreading and evaporation of solutions (and dispersions) and interfacial rheology. This broad research activity has contributed to some of the most recent advances in colloid and interface science, which is reflected in more than 200 papers in peer-reviewed journals and more than 4000 citations according to the Web of Science.

Interplay of epilepsy and long-term potentiation: implications for memory.
Front Neurosci
January 2025
Department of Neurophysiology, Instituto Nacional de Neurología y Neurocirugía "Manuel Velasco Suárez", Mexico City, Mexico.
The interplay between long-term potentiation (LTP) and epilepsy represents a crucial facet in understanding synaptic plasticity and memory within neuroscience. LTP, a phenomenon characterized by a sustained increase in synaptic strength, is pivotal in learning and memory processes, particularly in the hippocampus. This review delves into the intricate relationship between LTP and epilepsy, exploring how alterations in synaptic plasticity mechanisms akin to those seen in LTP contribute to the hyperexcitable state of epilepsy.

BioCardioLab, Fondazione Toscana G. Monasterio, 54100, Massa, Italy.
Extracorporeal Membrane Oxygenation (ECMO) is a modality of extracorporeal life support which allows temporary support in cases of cardiopulmonary failure and cardiogenic shock. This study presents a valveless pump that works by the Liebau effect as a possible pumping system in ECMO circuits, replacing the current roller and centrifugal pumps. For this purpose, a mock circulatory loop emulating the haemodynamic of the right part of the heart has been constructed.

Background: Adalimumab is an effective treatment for juvenile idiopathic arthritis-associated uveitis. Data are scarce on the effects of discontinuing adalimumab after control of the disease had been reached. We aimed to assess efficacy and safety of discontinuing treatment in patients with juvenile idiopathic arthritis-associated uveitis.

The dissemination of antimicrobial resistant (AMR) bacteria by flies in hospitals is concerning as nosocomial AMR infections pose a significant threat to public health. This threat is compounded in low- and middle-income countries (LMICs) by several factors, including limited resources for sufficient infection prevention and control (IPC) practices and high numbers of flies in tropical climates. In this pilot study, 1,396 flies were collected between August and September 2022 from eight tertiary care hospitals in six cities (Abuja, Enugu, Kaduna, Kano, Lagos and Sokoto) in Nigeria.

Department of Radiation Oncology, HM Hospitales, C/Oña 10, 28050, Madrid, Spain.
Objective: To evaluate the feasibility and tolerance of ultra-hypofractionated SABR (stereotactic ablative radiation therapy) protocol following radical prostatectomy.
Patients And Methods: We included patients undergoing adjuvant or salvage SABR between April 2019 and April 2023 targeting the surgical bed and pelvic lymph nodes up to a total dose of 36.25 Gy (7.
