Introducción, La enfermedad pulmonar obstructiva crónica (EPOC) es un proceso patológico irreversible que se caracteriza por una limitación del flujo aéreo incrementa de manera progresiva y asocia con respuesta inflamatoria anormal a partículas o gases nocivos, principalmente causada el tabaquismo, afecta directa al paciente ya patología la tendrá conllevar resto su vida, adaptarse las limitaci...

BACKGROUND The purpose of this article is to report on the quality of the existing evidence base regarding the effectiveness of clinical pathway (CPW) research in the hospital setting. The analysis is based on a recently published Cochrane review of the effectiveness of CPWs. METHODS An integral component of the review process was a rigorous appraisal of the methodological quality of publishe...

This thesis describes an SSVEP-based BCI implemented as a practical part of this work. One possible usage of a BCI that efficiently implements a communication channel between the brain and an external device would be to help severely disabled people to control devices that currently require pushing buttons, for example an electric wheelchair. The BCI implemented as a part of this thesis uses wi...

In this study the excess post-exercise oxygen consumption (EPOC), and related metabolic measures, following a 50 minute run compared to two 25 minute runs all at 70 per cent of peak VO2 in six women were investigated. Open-circuit spirometry procedures were used and appropriate control conditions were maintained for all trials. Following exercise, VO2 returned to baseline within 30 minutes for ...

Electrochemical promotion of catalysis reactions (EPOC) is one of the most significant discoveries in the field of catalytic and environmental protection. The work presented in this paper focuses on the aspects of reaction mechanism, influencing factors, and recent positive results. It has been shown with more than 80 different catalytic systems that the catalytic activity and selectivity of co...

Objetivo: Determinar la eficacia del tratamiento con células estromales mesenquimales (MSC), en pacientes enfermedad pulmonar obstructiva crónica (EPOC). Materiales y métodos: Análisis descriptivo, corte transversal, orientado hacia una revisión sistemática de artículos inglés, publicados durante los últimos 6 años, bases datos como: PubMed, ScienceDirect, ClinicalTrials.gov; a través uso descr...

Background. Previous work has demonstrated that a commercial gaming electroencephalography (EEG) system, Emotiv EPOC, can be adjusted to provide valid auditory event-related potentials (ERPs) in adults that are comparable to ERPs recorded by a research-grade EEG system, Neuroscan. The aim of the current study was to determine if the same was true for children. Method. An adapted Emotiv EPOC sys...

Electrochemical promotion of catalysis (EPOC) has been shown to accelerate the rate of many heterogeneous catalytic reactions; however, it has rarely been reported in low-temperature aqueous electrochemical reactions. Herein, we report a significant EPOC effect for the CO2 reduction to generate formate over Pd nanoparticles (NPs) in a 1 M KHCO3 aqueous solution. By applying a negative potential...

Oxygen uptake (VO2) and heart rate (HR) kinetics after exercise are important indicators of fitness and cardiovascular health. However, these variables have been little investigated in resistance exercise (RE). The current study compared post-exercise kinetics of VO2 and the HR among different types of REs. The study included 14 males (age: 26.5±5.4 years, body mass: 80.1±11.4 kg, body height: ...
