Ionothermal Synthesis of Cadmium Coordination Polymers: Ionic Liquid Effects on the Synthesis, Structural, and Thermal Characterization
(MDPI, 2019-11-09)
Ionothermal synthesis is a little used method for the preparation of coordination polymers. By this method, two cadmium compounds were synthesized, 1, with formula Cd-3(ox)F-2(Ina)(2) (Ina = isonicotinate) and 2, Cd(NO3)(2)(4,4 ...
Maternal circulating Vitamin D-3 levels during pregnancy and behaviour across childhood
(Nature Publishing Group, 2019-10-15)
Vitamin D deficiency during critical periods of development could lead to persistent brain alterations. We aimed to assess the association between maternal vitamin D-3, the major circulatory form of vitamin D, at pregnancy ...
ROP and crystallization behaviour of partially renewable triblock aromaticaliphatic copolymers derived from L-lactide
(Elsevier, 2019-10-26)
Two series of partially biobased ABA triblock copolyesters were successfully prepared by ring-opening polymerization (ROP) of L-lactide initiated by two telechelic polyester polyols using an organic catalyst. B blocks were ...
Nut Consumptions as a Marker of Higher Diet Quality in a Mediterranean Population at High Cardiovascular Risk
(MDPI, 2019-03-30)
BACKGROUND: Nut consumption has been associated with improved nutrient adequacy and diet quality in healthy adult populations but this association has never been explored in individuals at high cardiovascular risk.
OBJECTIVE: ...

Study of Humoral Responses against Lomentospora/Scedosporium spp. and Aspergillus fumigatus to Identify L. prolificans Antigens of Interest for Diagnosis and Treatment
(MDPI, 2019-12-10)
The high mortality rates of Lomentospora prolificans infections are due, above all, to the tendency of the fungus to infect weakened hosts, late diagnosis and a lack of effective therapeutic treatments. To identify proteins ...
Synthesis of new Ln4(Al2O6F2)O2 (Ln = Sm,Eu,Gd) phases with a cuspidine-related structure
(International Union of Crystallography, 2019-01)
The first fluorination of the cuspidine-related phases of Ln4(Al2O7□)O2 (where Ln = Sm, Eu, Gd) is reported. A low-temperature reaction with poly(vinylidene difluoride) lead to the fluorine being substituted in place of ...
Dietary Diversity and Nutritional Adequacy among an Older Spanish Population with Metabolic Syndrome in the PREDIMED-Pl us Study:A Cross-Sectional Analysis
(MDPI, 2019-04-26)
Dietary guidelines emphasize the importance of a varied diet to provide an adequate nutrient intake. However, an older age is often associated with consumption of monotonous diets that can be nutritionally inadequate, ...
Genome-wide association analysis of dementia and its clinical endophenotypes reveal novel loci associated with Alzheimer's disease and three causality networks: The GR@ACE project
(Elsevier Science INC, 2019-10)
Introduction: Large variability among Alzheimer's disease (AD) cases might impact genetic discoveries and complicate dissection of underlying biological pathways.
Methods: Genome Research at Fundacio ACE (GR@ACE) is a ...
Associations between Dietary Polyphenols and Type 2 Diabetes in a Cross-Sectional Analysis of the PREDIMED-Plus Trial: Role of Body Mass Index and Sex
(MDPI, 2019-11-08)
Overweight and obesity are important risk factors for type 2 diabetes (T2D). Moving towards healthier diets, namely, diets rich in bioactive compounds, could decrease the odds of suffering T2D. However, those individuals ...
