Acute damage to the posterior limb of the internal capsule on diffusion tensor tractography as an early imaging predictor of motor outcome after stroke

…, G Blasco, J Daunis-I-Estadella… - American Journal …, 2011 - Am Soc Neuroradiology
BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE: Early prediction of motor outcome is of interest in stroke
management. We aimed to determine whether lesion location at DTT is predictive of motor …

Wallerian degeneration in the corticospinal tract evaluated by diffusion tensor imaging correlates with motor deficit 30 days after middle cerebral artery ischemic stroke

…, G Blasco, J Daunis-I-Estadella… - American Journal …, 2010 - Am Soc Neuroradiology
BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE: The quantification and clinical significance of WD in CSTs
following supratentorial stroke are not well understood. We evaluated the anisotropy by …

Decreased corticospinal tract fractional anisotropy predicts long-term motor outcome after stroke

J Puig, G Blasco, J Daunis-I-Estadella, G Thomalla… - Stroke, 2013 - Am Heart Assoc
Background and Purpose— Nearly 50% of patients have residual motor deficits after stroke,
and long-term motor outcome is difficult to predict. We assessed the predictive value of …

Gut microbiota interacts with brain microstructure and function

…, G Blasco, J Puig, J Daunis-i-Estadella… - The Journal of …, 2015 - academic.oup.com
Context: Evidence from animals suggests that gut microbiota affects brain structure and
function but evidence in humans is scarce. Objective: This study sought to evaluate potential …

…, A Demchuk, J Daunis-I-Estadella… - American Journal …, 2012 - Am Soc Neuroradiology
BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE: Little is known about the factors that determine recanalization
after intravenous thrombolysis. We assessed the value of thrombus Hounsfield unit …

[BOOK][B] Simplicial regression. The normal model

… The original definitions by J. Aitchison are based on the normality of the alr coordinates

Hypothalamic damage is associated with inflammatory markers and worse cognitive performance in obese subjects

J Puig, G Blasco, J Daunis-i-Estadella… - The Journal of …, 2015 - academic.oup.com
Context: Growing evidence implicates hypothalamic inflammation in the pathogenesis of diet-induced
obesity and cognitive dysfunction in rodent models. Few studies have addressed …

Lower serum osteocalcin concentrations are associated with brain microstructural changes and worse cognitive performance

J Puig, G Blasco, J DaunisiEstadella… - Clinical …, 2016 - Wiley Online Library
Objective Rodent models have found that osteocalcin crosses the blood–brain barrier and
regulates behaviour. No data are available on osteocalcin's effects on brain microstructure …

Brain iron overload, insulin resistance, and cognitive performance in obese subjects: a preliminary MRI case-control study

G Blasco, J Puig, J Daunis-i-Estadella, X Molina… - Diabetes …, 2014 - Am Diabetes Assoc
OBJECTIVE The linkage among the tissue iron stores, insulin resistance (IR), and cognition
remains unclear in the obese population. We aimed to identify the factors that contribute to …
