No “Self” Advantage for Audiovisual Speech Aftereffects
(Frontiers in Psychology, 2019)
Although the default state of the world is that we see and hear other people talking, there is evidence that seeing and hearing ourselves rather than someone else may lead to visual (i.e., lip-read) or auditory “self” ...
Predictions as a window into learning: Anticipatory fixation offsets carry more information about environmental statistics than reactive stimulus-responses
(Journal of Vision, 2019)
A core question underlying neurobiological and computational models of behavior is how individuals learn environmental statistics and use them to make predictions. Most investigations of this issue have relied on reactive ...
Economy of the global food systems
(2019-01-28)
[EN] We analyze the economic fundamentals of the food system with a holistic approach. Population growth increases as well as demand of food, so the food system is challenged. Food price volatility, conflicts and crisis ...
Relationship between polypharmacy and potentially inappropriate prescription in patients over 65 in a Spanish rural area. A comparison of STOPP and Beers criteria
(2019-01-21)
[EN] The objective of this study is to evaluate the prevalence of potentially inappropriate prescription (PIP) and establish the relationship between PIP and polypharmacy in patients who take chronic medications.
We used ...
Multi-Response Optimization of WEDM Process Parameters for Machining of Superelastic Nitinol Shape-Memory Alloy Using a Heat-Transfer Search Algorithm
(MDPI, 2019-04-18)
Nitinol, a shape-memory alloy (SMA), is gaining popularity for use in various applications. Machining of these SMAs poses a challenge during conventional machining. Henceforth, in the current study, the wire-electric ...
Effects of a physical activity programme to prevent physical performance decline in onco-geriatric patients: a randomized multicentre trial
(Wiley, 2019-04)
Background Older adults with cancer experience negative long-term functional effects of both cancer and treatments. Exercise may minimize their age-related and cancer-related functional decline. Methods We conducted a ...
Magnetoimpedance in Symmetric and Non-Symmetric Nanostructured Multilayers: A Theoretical Study
(MDPI, 2019-04-12)
Intensive studies of the magnetoimpedance (MI) effect in nanostructured multilayers provide a good phenomenological basis and theoretical description for the symmetric case when top and bottom layers of ferromagnet/condu ...
On-Line Monitoring of Blind Fastener Installation Process
(MDPI, 2019-04-01)
Blind fasteners are of special interest for aircraft construction since they allow working on joints where only one side is accessible, as is the case in many common aerospace box-type structures, such as stabilizers and ...
Utility of MALDI-TOF MS as a New Tool for Streptococcus Pneumoniae Serotyping
(Public Library Science, 2019-02-12)
Nowadays, more than 95 different Streptococcus pneumoniae serotypes are known, being less than one third responsible for the majority of severe pneumococcal infections. After the introduction of conjugate vaccines, a change ...
Folding Status Is Determinant over Traffic-Competence in Defining CFTR Interactors in the Endoplasmic Reticulum
(MDPI, 2019-04-14)
The most common cystic fibrosis-causing mutation (F508del, present in ~85% of CF patients) leads to CFTR misfolding, which is recognized by the endoplasmic reticulum (ER) quality control (ERQC), resulting in ER retention ...
