Human Immunodeficiency Virus infection, asymptomatic atherosclerosis, and inflammation: A candidate gene study
Acquired Immunodeficiency Syndrome (AIDS) was identified more than 30 years ago. The challenges for the clinicians and Human Immunodeficiency Virus (HIV)-infected individuals have changed over the years. Nowadays, viral ...
Human M3 muscarinic acetylcholine receptor protein-protein interactions: roles in receptor signaling and regualation
Muscarinic acetylcholine receptors (mAChRs) have been shown to mediate various functions in the central and peripheral nervous systems. These include modulation of exocrine glandular secretion, vasodilatation and smooth ...
Human mobility: data analysis, theory and models
[eng] Like Columbus mistook America for India, we stepped into the era of misinformation mistaking it for the era of big data. Since the digital revolution in the early ’90s we started producing such a huge amount of data ...
Human movement analysis by means of accelerometers : aplication to human gait and motor symptoms of Parkinson's Disease
This thesis presents the original contributions of the author on the field of human movement analysis from signals captured by accelerometers. These sensors are capable of converting acceleration from some body parts into ...
Human pharmacology of ayahuasca
La ayahuasca es una bebida psicotrópica obtenida de las plantas Banisteriopsis caapi y Psychotria viridis, que ha sido utilizada desde hace siglos en las cuencas de los ríos Amazonas y Orinoco con finalidades mágico-religiosas ...
Human pluripotent stem cells: towards the definition of new engineering approaches to target heart and kidney disease
[eng] Human pluripotent stem cells (hPSCs) offer a significant advantage in recapitulating key features related to tissue differentiation, morphogenesis and, conversely, human diseases. Taking advantage of their inherent ...
Human population genetics in the Mediterranean region. From single markers to whole-genome sequencing = Genètica de poblacions humanes del Mediterrani. Des de marcadors únics fins la seqüenciació del genoma complet
The human populations of the Mediterranean region have been thoroughly studied. Nonetheless, there are numerous aspects of their demographic and epidemiological history that remain uncertain to date. The growing use of ...
Human population genetics of North Africa: insights into demography and functional variation
Since the origins of humankind, North Africa has been involved in many demographic events, leading to a heterogeneous cultural and genetic landscape. However, it is largely underrepresented in genetic studies, and many ...
Human population genomics of the Western Mediterranean
This work explores the genetic landscape of the Western Mediterranean basin. Genome-wide data have been used in order to describe the genetics of the Island of Ibiza and France. In the first case, we found Ibiza being ...
Human Pose Analysis and Gesture Recognition from Depth Maps: Methods and Applications
The visual analysis of humans is one of the most active research topics in Computer Vision. Several approaches for body pose recovery have been recently presented, allowing for better generalization of gesture recognition ...
Human Primary Organoid-Derived Epithelial Monolayers as a Novel Strategy for the Study of Adherent Invasive Escherichia coli pathogenicity and the effects of Postbiotics on Intestinal Epithelial Function
Inflammatory bowel disorders – such as Inflammatory Bowel Disease (IBD) – are rising worldwide. A well-known feature of IBD is dysbiosis of the gut microbiota, characterized by a significant reduction of beneficial strains ...
Human prion-like proteins and their relevance in disease
Les “prion-like proteins” han anat adquirint una atenció cada cop major en els últims anys. El seu interès recau en: i) la seva implicació en malalties degeneratives; ii) la quantitat d’elles que presenten mutacions ...
Human Robot Interactions using Efficient Semantic Mapping
El modelatge de l'espai de treball basat en la percepció és un requisit crucial perquè els robots mòbils naveguin per entorns interiors. Per tal que els robots puguin interactuar eficaçment amb els humans, també és necessari ...
Human segmentation, pose estimation and applications
El análisis automático de seres humanos en fotografías o videos tiene grandes aplicaciones dentro de la visión por computador, incluyendo diagnóstico médico, deportes, entretenimiento, edición de películas y vigilancia, ...
Human sequence evaluation: the key-frame approach
L'anàlisi de seqüències d'imatges on apareixen éssers humans permet desenvolupar múltiples aplicacions, però també comporta moltes dificultats. Aquest àmbit de recerca tan complexe s'anonema Human Sequence Evaluation (HSE). ...
Human sperm transcriptome: characterization, biological relevance, and biomarker functionality
Se ha demostrado que la contribución del espermatozoide al embrión va más allá de la transmisión del genoma paterno. Diversos estudios han mostrado que el espermatozoide humano contiene una compleja población de RNAs ...
Human trafficking y la prevención administrativa de una nueva esclavitud
En el mundo globalizado moderno, Human Trafficking es una de las revelaciones más graves de la violación de los derechos humanos y, en consecuencia, se considera uno de los temas vitales para los estados de la comunidad ...
Human-aware application of data science techniques
In recent years there has been an increase in the use of artificial intelligence and other data-based techniques to automate decision-making in companies, and discover new knowledge in research. In many cases, all this has ...
Human-centered learning design with technology
To improve and innovate education, a novel conception of the role of design in this realm is needed. Human-centered design (HCD), a problem-solving framework underpinned by the user perspective in all stages of the ...
