These results reinforce the start of the phase 2 clinical trial, through an international multicenter study with people with Down syndrome, focused on the dose necessary to achieve the treatment goal.

Additionally, having a high-quality breakfast with a balanced intake of proteins, high-value fats, fiber, calcium, and iron is associated with a 1.5% smaller waist circumference, 4% lower triglycerides, and 3% higher HDL cholesterol.

The study tracked nearly 400 participants of the PREDIMED-Plus study over three years, which analyzes the effects of the Mediterranean diet on participants' health.

This dual mechanism of action has demonstrated safety and achieved complete and durable antitumor responses in patient-derived models of HER2+ p95HER2-expressing solid tumors.

Published in Nature Communications, results of this VHIO-led study have provided the rationale for the application of a phase 1 first-in-human clinical trial, currently in the approval process, to assess this novel therapeutic strategy in patients with HER2-driven solid tumors.

This study is mainly supported by the Asociación Española Contra el Cáncer (AECC) through AUSONIA and has also received funding from the Breast Cancer Research Foundation (BCRF), Fundación BBVA through the Comprehensive Program of Cancer Immunotherapy and Immunology (CAIMI), which is one of VHIO's Institutional Programs focused on developing new advanced therapies.

The goal is to develop and validate protocols and systems for generating laboratory-derived stem cells to regenerate patients' blood.

The European Research Council, which provides these grants, is the leading funding organization for advanced and excellent research on the continent. It is an organization created by the European Union.

Engaging in intense physical activity reduces the oxidation of LDL particles, lowering the risk of cardiovascular disease. Thirty minutes of intense exercise daily reduces oxidized LDL cholesterol by 8 to 10%. However, the effect is only seen in men. Low or moderate intensity exercises do not have the same effect.

This is revealed by a study from the Hospital del Mar Research Institute and the Faculty of Medicine of the University of Vic-Central University of Catalonia, published in the Spanish Journal of Cardiology.

The risk of premature death, meaning dying before the age of 70, is also higher in people hospitalized for a mental disorder. This group has nearly eight times the mortality risk compared to the rest of the population.

The study analyzed data from nearly 50,000 people. The disorders with the most impact are depression, cognitive disorders, adjustment and bipolar disorders, and alcohol use.

The study reviewed data from nearly 3,000 patients treated for this condition at Hospital del Mar.

Research will continue to determine if managing glucose levels in this population can improve their prognosis.

This is what the results of a new study by the Hospital del Mar Research Institute and the Barcelonaβeta Brain Research Center (BBRC), research center of the Pasqual Maragall Foundation, indicate.

The research, based on data from 320 participants of the Alfa cohort, promoted by the "la Caixa" Foundation, concludes that nutritional interventions could prevent the disease.

The research was led by the Evolutionary Genomics Research Group at the Hospital del Mar Research Institute, in collaboration with Cima University of Navarra and Pompeu Fabra University.

Various state-of-the-art tools were used to detect and identify these small molecules in samples from over a hundred tumors.
