Does quality pay in the pharmaceutical industry? The mediating role of training of personnel between quality management and performance
(Facultad de Economía y Empresa (Sección Gipuzkoa), 2018-12-30)
[ES] Este trabajo tiene por objeto contribuir a la literatura relacionada con la calidad y la formación, considerando a esta última como variable mediadora entre la calidad y el desempeño empresarial. Basándonos en la ...
Extracellular Vesicles in Liver Diseases: Meeting Report from the International Liver Congress 2018
(Wiley, 2019-02)
Extracellular vesicles (EVs) are small and heterogeneous membrane-bound structures released by cells and found in all biological fluids. They are effective intercellular communicators, acting on a number of close and/or ...
Modeling the Ascorbate-Glutathione Cycle in Chloroplasts under Light/Dark Conditions
(Biomed Central, 2016-01-22)
Background: Light/dark cycles are probably the most important environmental signals that regulate plant development. Light is essential for photosynthesis, but an excess, in combination with the unavoidable presence of ...
What to consider when pseudohypoparathyroidism is ruled out: iPPSD and differential diagnosis
(Biomed Central, 2018-03-02)
Background: Pseudohypoparathyroidism (PHP) is a rare disease whose phenotypic features are rather difficult to identify in some cases. Thus, although these patients may present with the Albright's hereditary osteodystrophy ...
Water Adsorption on the β-Dicalcium Silicate Surface from DFT Simulations
(MDPI, 2018-09-04)
beta-dicalcium silicate (beta-Ca2SiO4 or beta-C2S in cement chemistry notation) is one of the most important minerals in cement. An improvement of its hydration rate would be the key point for developing environmentally-friendly ...
Creative Chord Sequence Generation for Electronic Dance Music
(MDPI, 2018-09-19)
This paper describes the theory and implementation of a digital audio workstation plug-in for chord sequence generation. The plug-in is intended to encourage and inspire a composer of electronic dance music to explore loops ...
Spherical Deconvolution of MultichannelDiffusion MRI Data with Non-Gaussian NoiseModels and Spatial Regularization
(Biomed Central, 2015-10-15)
Spherical deconvolution (SD) methods are widely used to estimate the intra-voxel white-matter fiber orientations from diffusion MRI data. However, while some of these methods assume a zero-mean Gaussian distribution for ...
Mediterranean diet and quality of life: Baseline cross-sectional analysis of the PREDIMED-PLUS trial
(Public Libray fo Science, 2018-06-18)
We assessed if a 17-item score capturing adherence to a traditional Mediterranean diet (MedDiet) was associated with better health-related quality of life among older Spanish men and women with overweight or obesity harboring ...
Spin-texture inversion in the giant Rashba semiconductor BiTeI
(Nature Publishing, 2016-05)
Semiconductors with strong spin-orbit interaction as the underlying mechanism for the generation of spin-polarized electrons are showing potential for applications in spintronic devices. Unveiling the full spin texture in ...
A Statistically Representative Atlas for Mapping Neuronal Circuits in the Drosophila Adult Brain
(Frontiers in Neuroinformatics, 2018)
Imaging the expression patterns of reporter constructs is a powerful tool to dissect the neuronal circuits of perception and behavior in the adult brain of Drosophila, one of the major models for studying brain functions. ...
