  • Altered gesture imitation and brain anatomy in adult prader-willi syndrome patients
    Caixàs, Assumpta; Blanco Hinojo, Laura, 1981-; Pujol Martí, Jesús, 1981-; Deus, Joan; Giménez Palop, Olga; Torrents-Rodas, David; Coronas, Ramon; Novell, Ramon; Esteba-Castillo, Susanna (Cambridge University Press, 2021)
    Objective: To explore motor praxis in adults with Prader-Willi syndrome (PWS) in comparison with a control group of people with intellectual disability (ID) and to examine the relationship with brain structural measurements. ...
  • Arterial stiffness in type 1 diabetes: the case for the arterial wall itself as a target organ
    González Clemente, José Miguel; Cano, Albert; Albert, Lara; Giménez Palop, Olga; Romero, Ana; Berlanga, Eugenio; Vendrell, Joan; Llauradó Cabot, Gemma (MDPI, 2021)
    Arterial stiffness (AS) integrates the cumulative burden of known and unknown cardiovascular risk factors on the elastic wall of large arteries along the lifespan of an individual. As a marker of vascular aging, AS is an ...
  • Cerebellar dysfunction in adults with prader Willi syndrome
    Blanco Hinojo, Laura, 1981-; Casamitjana, Laia; Pujol Martí, Jesús, 1981-; Martínez-Vilavella, Gerard; Esteba-Castillo, Susanna; Giménez Palop, Olga; Freijo, Valentín; Deus, Joan; Caixàs, Assumpta (MDPI, 2021)
    Severe hypotonia during infancy is a hallmark feature of Prader Willi syndrome (PWS). Despite its transient expression, moto development is delayed and deficiencies in motor coordination are present at older ages, with no ...
  • FGF-23/vitamin D axis in type 1 diabetes: the potential role of mineral metabolism in arterial stiffness.
    Llauradó Cabot, Gemma; Megia, Ana; Cano, Albert; Giménez Palop, Olga; Simón, Inmaculada; González Sastre, Montserrat; Berlanga, Eugenio; Fernández Veledo, Sonia; Vendrell, Joan; González Clemente, José Miguel (Public Library of Science, 2015)
    OBJECTIVE: To investigate the usefulness of Fibroblast Growth Factor 23 (FGF-23) and vitamin D as possible biomarkers of pre-clinical atherosclerosis, assessed as arterial stiffness (AS), in a group of subjects with type ...
  • Hunger and satiety peptides: is there a pattern to classify patients with prader-Willi syndrome?
    Bueno, Marta; Boixadera-Planas, Ester; Blanco Hinojo, Laura, 1981-; Esteba-Castillo, Susanna; Giménez Palop, Olga; Torrents-Rodas, David; Pujol Martí, Jesús, 1981-; Corripio, Raquel; Deus, Joan; Caixàs, Assumpta (MDPI, 2021)
    Hyperphagia is one of the main problems of patients with Prader-Willi syndrome (PWS) to cope with everyday life. The underlying mechanisms are not yet well understood. Gut-brain hormones are an interrelated network that ...
  • Lack of Postprandial Peak in Brain-Derived Neurotrophic Factor in Adults with Prader-Willi Syndrome.
    Bueno, Marta; Esteba-Castillo, Susanna; Novell, Ramon; Giménez Palop, Olga; Coronas, Ramon; Gabau, Elisabeth; Corripio, Raquel; Baena, Neus; Viñas-Jornet, Marina; Guitart, Miriam; Torrents-Rodas, David; Deus, Joan; Pujol Martí, Jesús, 1981-; Rigla, Mercedes; Caixàs, Assumpta (Public Library of Science (PLoS) , 2016)
    CONTEXT: Prader-Willi syndrome (PWS) is characterized by severe hyperphagia. Brain-derived neurotrophic factor (BDNF) and leptin are reciprocally involved in energy homeostasis. OBJECTIVES: To analyze the role of BDNF and ...
  • Lack of response to disgusting food in the hypothalamus and related structures in Prader Willi syndrome
    Blanco Hinojo, Laura, 1981-; Pujol Martí, Jesús, 1981-; Esteba-Castillo, Susanna; Martínez-Vilavella, Gerard; Giménez Palop, Olga; Gabau, Elisabeth; Casamitjana, Laia; Deus, Joan; Novell, Ramon; Caixàs, Assumpta (Elsevier, 2019)
    OBJECTIVE: To investigate, based on a putative abnormal neural processing of disgusting signals in Prader Willi syndrome (PWS) patients, the brain response to visual representations of disgusting food in PWS using functional ...
  • One year of recombinant human growth hormone treatment in adults with Prader-Willi syndrome improves body composition, motor skills and brain functional activity in the cerebellum
