(MDPI, 2022-05)
Objectives: To compare characteristics of caregivers of adults with acute traumatic brain injury (TBI) in the U.S. and Latin America (Mexico and Colombia). Design: Secondary data analysis of two cohorts. Cohort 1: ...
Transscleral Cyclophotocoagulation for the Treatment of Uncontrolled Glaucoma in a Boston Keratoprosthesis Type II Patient
(Karger, 2022)
[EN] Postoperative endoscopic cyclophotocoagulation (CPC) for the treatment of glaucoma in patients with Boston keratoprosthesis type II (BKPro II) was first described in 2017 by Poon et al. (Endoscopic cyclophotocoagulation ...
Impaired dermal wound healing in discoidin domain receptor 2-deficient mice associated with defective extracellular matrix remodeling
(BioMed Central, 2011)
Background
The wounding response relies on tightly regulated crosstalk between recruited fibroblasts and the collagenous extracellular matrix (ECM). Discoidin domain receptor 2 (DDR2) is a tyrosine kinase receptor for ...
A novel brain partition highlights the modular skeleton shared by structure and function
(Nature Publishing Group, 2015-06-03)
Elucidating the intricate relationship between brain structure and function, both in healthy and pathological conditions, is a key challenge for modern neuroscience. Recent progress in neuroimaging has helped advance our ...
Snail heterogeneity in clear cell renal cell carcinoma
(Biomed Central, 2016-03-08)
Background: Intratumor heterogeneity may be responsible of the unpredictable aggressive clinical behavior that some clear cell renal cell carcinomas display. This clinical uncertainty may be caused by insufficient sampling, ...
Influence of Extracellular Matrix Components on the Expression of Integrins and Regeneration of Adult Retinal Ganglion Cells
(Public Library Science, 2015-05-27)
Purpose
Retinal ganglion cells (RGCs) are exposed to injury in a variety of optic nerve diseases including glaucoma. However, not all cells respond in the same way to damage and the capacity of individual RGCs to survive ...
RNA Localization and Local Translation in Glia in Neurological and Neurodegenerative Diseases: Lessons from Neurons
(MDPI, 2021-03-12)
Cell polarity is crucial for almost every cell in our body to establish distinct structural and functional domains. Polarized cells have an asymmetrical morphology and therefore their proteins need to be asymmetrically ...

(Elsevier, 2020-12)
Objectives: To develop a protocol for a scoping review mapping as well as thematically analyzing the literature on the effect of, and responses to, the coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) pandemic, focused on people with ...
Individual-based morphological brain network organization and its association with autistic symptoms in young children with autism spectrum disorder
(Wiley, 2021-07)
Individual-based morphological brain networks built from T1-weighted magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) reflect synchronous maturation intensities between anatomical regions at the individual level. Autism spectrum disorder ...
