Alzheimer’s disease (AD) heritability is estimated to be around 70–80%. Yet, much of it remains to be explained. Studying transmission patterns may help in understanding other factors contributing to the development of AD.

Our approach intends to clarify similarities and differences in the health properties of these seaweeds, thus contributing to target potential applications for each. Additionally, although Arame and Fucus sea...

Introduction: Evidence supporting transmural remission (TR) as a long-term treatment target in Crohn's disease (CD) is still unavailable. Less stringent but more reachable targets such as isolated endoscopic (IER) or radiologic remission (IRR) may also be acceptable options in the long-term. Methods: Multicenter retrospective study including 404 CD patients evaluated by magnetic resonance enterography and colon...
