A study by IDIBELL and ICO in 7,202 women with endometrial cancer and more than 22,000 control women found no relationship between lack of sleep or working night shifts with the development of this cancer.
The study performs an evaluation to determine the cost-effectiveness and profitability of two strategies for the early detection of endometrial cancer in women with postmenopausal bleeding.
1 in 3 men over the age of 15 are infected with at least one genital human papillomavirus (HPV) type, and 1 in 5 are infected with one or more of what are known as high risk, or oncogenic, HPV types
A research team led by Aurora Pujol and Dr. Carlos Casasnovas developed an innovative computational algorithm called ClinPrior. This algorithm demonstrated its ability to improve the diagnosis rate in patients with rare diseases of genetic origin.
This work, in which IDIBELL and the Catalan Institute of Oncology (ICO) participated, has analyzed the concentrations of nicotine in the air, as well as, cotinine and nitrosamines, specifically of tobacco dust in vehicles.
A new study published and highlighted by the scientific journal Emergencias reveals the direct relationship between having two or more factors, such as illiteracy, anxiety or lack of caregivers, and returning to the ER in less than 30 days.
This study has found significant relationships between the blood concentration of two endocannabinoid neurotransmitters with clinical variables and body mass index (BMI) in a group of patients with extreme clinical weight conditions.
The results show that a protein, NADPH oxidase NOX4, which had been described as a mediator of TGF-beta-induced cell death, also participates in the pro-tumorogenic response to this factor, specifically mediating its pro-migratory and invasive effects.
The analysis of brain involvement at an individual level has shown that there is a great heterogeneity in the affected regions in individuals with the same clinical diagnosis. In contrast, alterations in neural circuits and networks involving different regions are common among various mental disorders and could therefore become useful as diagnostic markers.
According to the study carried out by the IDIBELL research group on cardiovascular diseases (BIOHEART), this program not only could reduce hospital admissions and deaths of patients 30 days after discharge – as it was already proven – but also at 90 and 180 days.
