Evaluación y resultados de la instauración de un programa de terapia de grupo dirigido a un colectivo de cuidadores familiares de enfermos de Alzheimer
(Colegio Oficial de Psicólogos de Madrid, 1999)[Resumen] La terapia de grupo es una de las actividades que se han mostrado más positivas como apoyo a los cuidadores familiares de enfermos de Alzheimer; por ello, en este trabajo pre - sentamos un programa de ayuda a ... -
Coste asistencial del paciente con deterioro cognitivo: paciente institucionalizado versus paciente en domicilio
(Liga de Geriatras y Gerontólogos de Lengua Latina, 1999)[Resumen] Introducción y objetivos: La mayor parte de las personas mayores permanecen en su domicilio cuando envejecen generando una carga asistencial a sus cuidadores difícil de cuantificar; por ello, el objetivo de este ... -
Sight and insight – on the physiological role of nitric oxide in the visual system
(Elsevier, 1999-03-01)[Abstract] Research in the fields of cellular communication and signal transduction in the brain has moved very rapidly in recent years. Nitric oxide (NO) is one of the latest discoveries in the arena of messenger molecules. ... -
Evaluación con el cuestionario OARS modificado de los beneficios obtenidos mediante la interacción con animales de compañía en un colectivo de ancianos
(Sociedad Española de Enfermería Geriátrica y Geroncológica, 1999-04)[Resumen] El envejecimiento poblacional hace que cada vez surjan nuevas alternativas coducentes a mejorar la calidad de vida de las personas mayores. En nuestro trabajo, exponemos los resultados obtenidos sobre una muestra ... -
Effects of amphetamine on development of oral candidiasis in rats
(American Society for Microbiology, 1999-07)[Abstract] Experiments were conducted to evaluate the effects of amphetamine (0.4 mg/kg of body weight/day) on the development of oral candidiasis in Sprague-Dawley rats. Animals were submitted to surgical hyposalivation ... -
Cortico-subcortical synchronization in the chloralose-anesthetized cat
(Elsevier, 1999-07)[Abstract] The spontaneous and paroxysmal cerebral cortical synchronized activity was used as reference to study the cortical impact exerted on subcortical neurons. The sensorimotor cortical synchronized activity spread ... -
Supervisión nocturna, diurna y comunicación: tres nuevos ítems para valorar la carga asistencial del paciente con deterioro cognitivo
(Nexus, 2000)[Resumen] Fundamentos: Introducir tres ítems en un cuestionario de valoración funcional a fin de valorar más eficazmente la carga asistencial del paciente con deterioro cognitivo. Métodos: Diseñamos un cuestionario ... -
The primate pulvinar nuclei: vision and action
(Elsevier, 2000)[Abstract] The pulvinar nuclei of the thalamus are proportionately larger in higher mammals, particularly in primates, and account for a quarter of the total mass. Traditionally, these nuclei have been divided into oral ... -
Papel del profesional de enfermería en un centro de día gerontológico
(Sociedad Española de Enfermería Geriátrica y Geroncológica, 2000)[Resumen] El envejecimiento poblacional, junto con la evolución de la sociedad, hace necesario que para mantener al anciano en su entorno habitual se creen centros específicos de atención, que a la vez permitan una asistencia ... -
Lemniscal recurrent and transcortical influences on cuneate neurons
(Elsevier, 2000)[Abstract] Intracellular recordings were obtained from cuneate neurons of chloralose-anesthetized, paralysed cats to study the synaptic responses induced by electrical stimulation of the contralateral medial lemniscus. ... -
Helping the family carers of Alzheimer's patients: from theory... to practice: a preliminary study
(Elsevier, 2000-04-24)[Abstract] Alzheimer's disease (AD) represents one of the most important health issues in the western world. The ongoing care that the AD patient requires typically causes high stress levels, fatigue, irritation and ... -
Microembolic signal monitoring in hemispheric acute ischaemic stroke: a prospective study
(Karger, 2000-06-22)[Abstract] Background and purpose: There are few data on the occurrence of microembolic signals (MES) in the acute phase of ischaemic stroke. The objective of our work was to systematically study the frequency of MES ... -
Specific roles of NMDA and AMPA receptors in direction-selective and spatial phase-selective responses in visual cortex
(Society of Neuroscience, 2001)[Abstract] Cells in the superficial layers of primary visual cortex (area 17) are distinguished by feedforward input from thalamic-recipient layers and by massive recurrent excitatory connections be- tween ... -
La corteza cerebral modula la transmisión cutánea a través de los núcleos de los cordones posteriores
(J.V. Sánchez Andrés, 2001)The mechanisms used by the cerebral cortex to modulate the cutaneous information at prethalamic level have been scarcely studied. This article reviews experimental evidence leading to a better understanding of this issue ... -
A realistic computational model of the local circuitry of the cuneate nucleus
(Springer, 2001)Intracellular recordings obtained under cutaneous and lemniscal stimulation show that the afferent fibers can establish excitatory and inhibitory synaptic connections with cuneothalamic neurons [5]. In addition, distinct ... -
Embolism in acute middle cerebral artery stenosis
(Wolters Kluwer, 2001-02-27)[Abstract] Objective: To investigate the frequency of middle cerebral artery (MCA) stenosis in a series of nonselected patients and the coexistence of microembolic signals with stenosis. Methods: MCA stenosis was ... -
Foci of orientation plasticity in visual cortex
(Nature, 2001-05-03)[Abstract] Cortical areas are generally assumed to be uniform in their capacity for adaptive changes or plasticity1, 2, 3, 4. Here we demonstrate, however, that neurons in the cat striate cortex (V1) show pronounced ... -
Transcranial static magnetic field stimulation of the human motor cortex
(Wiley, 2001-08-01)[Abstract] The aim of the present study was to investigate in healthy humans the possibility of a non-invasive modulation of motor cortex excitability by the application of static magnetic fields through the scalp. Static ... -
Electrical activity in primary visual area due to interocular suppression
(Lippincott, 2001-12)[Abstract] Under binocular rivalry conditions, evoked potentials to lower hemifield stimulation are more positive for the dominant than for the suppressed eye between 100 and 300 ms. However, this pattern reverses when the ...
