Early PSA-NCAM reduction in the dentate gyrus and impaired plasticity in the Alzheimer´s disease 3xTg-mice model.

Neurodegenerative diseases such as Alzheimer´s (AD) and physiological ageing are characterized by a decline in neurogenesis and in the polysialylated isoforms of neural cell adhesion molecule (PSA-NCAM) expression within the hippocampus and specifically in the dentate gyrus (DG). In the 3xTG-AD mouse model, which mimics the human disease in both pathological and behavioral features, this decline in PSA-NCAM is associated with the presence of Aβ plaques at 9 months and Tau tangles at 12-15 months. In this work we studied the presence of PSA-NCAM at early ages (1-6 months) in the same model.

Gastrointestinal symptoms and nutritional intake among participants in a non-professional cycling event.

Our preclinical study characterized changes in affective-like behavior and/or voluntary ethanol consumption emerging later on in adulthood induced by a prior adolescent drug exposure, as well as tested therapeutical interventions (i.e.

Characterization of postintensive care syndrome in a prospective cohort of survivors of COVID-19 critical illness: a 12-month follow-up study.

Purpose: Studies integrating an exhaustive longitudinal long-term follow-up of postintensive care syndrome (PICS) in critically ill COVID-19 survivors are scarce. We aimed to 1) describe PICS-related sequelae over a 12-month period after intensive care unit (ICU) discharge, 2) identify relevant demographic and clinical factors related to PICS, and 3) explore how PICS-related sequelae may influence health-related quality of life (HRQoL) in critically ill COVID-19 survivors.

Methods: We conducted a prospective cohort study in adult critically ill survivors of SARS-CoV-2 infection that did or did not need invasive mechanical ventilation (IMV) during the COVID-19 pandemic in Spain (March 2020 to January 2021).

Neural dynamics of pain modulation by emotional valence.

Definitions of human pain acknowledge at least two dimensions of pain, affective and sensory, described as separable and thus potentially differentially modifiable. Using electroencephalography, we investigated perceptual and neural changes of emotional pain modulation in healthy individuals. Painful electrical stimuli were applied after presentation of priming emotional pictures (negative, neutral, positive) and followed by pain intensity and unpleasantness ratings.

Catalytic Advantages of SOH-Modified UiO-66(Zr) Materials Obtained via Microwave Synthesis in Friedel-Crafts Acylation Reaction.

The catalytic activity and stability of sulfonic-based UiO-66(Zr) materials were tested in the Friedel-Crafts acylation of anisole with acetic anhydride. The materials were prepared using microwave-assisted synthesis, producing microporous materials with remarkable crystallinity and physicochemical features as acid catalysts. Different ratios between both organic ligands, terephthalic acid (HBDC) and monosodium 2-sulfoterephthalic acid (HBDC-SONa), were used for the synthesis to modulate the sulfonic content.

Mangostanin hyaluronic acid hydrogel as an effective biocompatible alternative to chlorhexidine.

Periodontal disease (PD) prevention and treatment products typically demonstrate excellent antibacterial activity, but recent studies have raised concerns about their toxicity on oral tissues. Therefore, finding a biocompatible alternative that retains antimicrobial properties is imperative. In this study, a chemically modified hyaluronic acid (HA) hydrogel containing mangostanin (MGTN) was developed.

Involuntary motor responses are elicited both by rare sounds and rare pitch changes.

Unpredictable deviations from an otherwise regular auditory sequence, as well as rare sounds following a period of silence, are detected automatically. Recent evidence suggests that the latter also elicit quick involuntary modulations of ongoing motor activity emerging as early as 100 ms following sound onset, which was attributed to supramodal processing. We explored such force modulations for both rare and deviant sounds.
