An African West Nile virus risk map for travellers and clinicians.
(2022-12-19)West Nile virus (WNV). Due to the difficulty of its diagnosis, little is known about its distribution in Africa. Understanding the geographic extent of risk of WNV infections is a necessity for both travellers and clinicians ... -
Anticipating the locations in Europe of high-risk areas for West Nile virus outbreaks in 2021
(WILEY, 2021)West Nile virus infections in humans are continuously increasing, and the virus has spread considerably in Europe over the past decade. The incidence of the disease was unusually high between 2018 and 2020. The resulting ... -
Applying fuzzy logic to assess the biogeographical risk of dengue in South America
(BMC Springer Nature, 2019)Over the last decade, reports about dengue cases have increase worldwide, which is particularly worrisome in South America due to the historic record of dengue outbreaks from the seventeenth century until the first half ... -
Bicuspid Aortic Valve in 2 Model Species and Review of the Literature
(Sage Publications INC, 2020-02-21)Bicuspid aortic valve (BAV) is the most common human congenital cardiac malformation. Although the etiology is unknown for most patients, formation of the 2 main BAV anatomic types (A and B) has been shown to rely on ... -
Cardiomyocyte-Specific Wt1 Is Involved in Cardiac Metabolism and Response to Damage.
(MDPI, 2023-05-12)The Wilms tumor suppressor gene (Wt1) encodes a C2H2-type zinc-finger transcription factor that participates in transcriptional regulation, RNA metabolism, and protein–protein interactions. WT1 is involved in the development ... -
Combined Effects of the North Atlantic Oscillation and the Arctic Oscillation on Sea Surface Temperature in the Alborán Sea
(San Francisco, CA : Public Library of Science, 2013-04-18)We explored the possible effects of the North Atlantic Oscillation (NAO) and Arctic Oscillation (AO) on interannual sea surface temperature (SST) variations in the Albora´n Sea, both separately and combined. The probability ... -
Deep sea starfishes (Echinodermata: Asteroidea) from the Avilés Canyon System (Bay of Biscay), including two new records
(Elsevier, 2022-09-09)The Avilés Canyon System (ACS) is located at the Southern Bay of Biscay (Northern Spain, Cantabrian Sea). The ACS occupies a total of 339.026 ha and is composed of three canyons, reaching the abyssal plain at 4700 m depth. ... -
Deep-sea echinoids from the Avilés Canyons System (Cantabrian Sea: North Atlantic Ocean)
(Elsevier, 2022-09)The Avilés Canyons System (ACS) is located in the South of the Bay of Biscay (Northern Spain, Cantabrian Sea) and covers a total of 3,390 km2. It is composed of three canyons, reaching the abyssal plain at 4700 m depth. ... -
Development of the ventricular myocardial trabeculae in Scyliorhinus canicula (Chondrichthyes): evolutionary implications
(Springer, 2020)The development of the ventricular myocardial trabeculae occurs in three steps: emergence, trabeculation and remodeling. The whole process has been described in vertebrates with two different myocardial structural types, ... -
Differential expression of myosin heavy chain isoforms in cardiac segments of gnathostome vertebrates and its evolutionary implications
(BioMed Central (Springer Nature), 2019)Immunohistochemical studies of hearts from the lesser spotted dogfish, Scyliorhinus canicular (Chondrichthyes) revealed that the pan-myosin heavy chain (pan-MyHC) antibody MF20 homogeneously labels all the myocardium, while ... -
Differential recovery of habitat use by birds after wind farm installation: A multi-year comparison.
(Elsevier, 2017-02-06)Onshore wind farms remain one of the most widely used technologies for the production of renewable energy. These are known to affect birds through disturbance or collision. Most research focus on the impact of wind farms ... -
Embryonic development of bicuspid aortic valves.
(Elsevier, 2020-06-25)Bicuspid aortic valve (BAV) is the most common congenital cardiac malformation, frequently associated with aortopathies and valvulopathies. The congenital origin of BAV is suspected to impact the development of the disease ... -
Environmental factors determining the establishment of the African Long-legged Buzzard Buteo rufinus cirtensis in Western Europe
(Wiley, 2017)Winters have become warmer under the impact of climate change, which has modified the phenology as well as the distribution ranges of birds. The African Longlegged Buzzard Buteo rufinus cirtensis has recently colonized ... -
Environmental favourability as a cost-efficient tool to estimate carrying capacity.
(Wiley, 2015-08-11)The way in which environmental conditions determine the distribution and abundance of species is a crucial topic in ecology, biogeography and conservation. It is especially important to understand the nature of this ... -
Estimating how inflated or obscured effects of climate affect forecasted species distribution
(San Francisco, CA : Public Library of Science, 2013-01-11)Climate is one of the main drivers of species distribution. However, as different environmental factors tend to co-vary, the effect of climate cannot be taken at face value, as it may be either inflated or obscured by ... -
Evaluating the expansion of African species into Europe driven by climate change.
(Wiley, 2024)Aim: Ongoing climate change is presently influencing the distribution ranges of nu-merous species, with both range expansions and latitudinal shifts being observed.In southern Europe, a biogeographical border that separates ... -
Experimental evidence of the genetic hypothesis on the etiology of bicuspid aortic valve aortopathy in the hamster model
(Frontiers, 2022)Bicuspid aortopathy occurs in approximately 50% of patients with bicuspid aortic valve (BAV), the most prevalent congenital cardiac malformation. Although different molecular players and etiological factors (genetic and ... -
Feral pigeon (Columba livia var. domestica) management in low-density urban areas: prevention is better than cure.
