Substantial evidence supports the relationship between peripheral insulin resistance (IR) and the development of Alzheimer’s disease (AD)-dementia. However, the mechanisms explaining these associations are only partly understood. We aimed to identify a metabolic signature of IR associated with the progression from mild cognitive impairment (MCI) to AD-dementia. This is a case-control study on 400 MCI subjects, free of type 2 diabetes, within the ACE cohort, including individuals ATN+ and ATN-.

An international research project in which the URV has taken part has designed and manufactured a surface that has virucidal properties but does not use any chemicals. A team of researchers from the URV and RMIT University (Australia) has designed and manufactured a surface that uses mechanical means to mitigate the infectious potential of viruses. Made of silicon, the artificial surface consists of a series of tiny spikes that damage the structure of viruses when they come into contact with it.

OverviewA cross-sectional study was conducted in the biomechanical research laboratory of Rovira i Virgili University from January 2022 to June 2023. The study adhered to the principles of the Declaration of Helsinki and received ethical approval from the local institutional review board (Pere Virgili Institute; Ref. CEICm: 074/2022). The goal of this observational study is to evaluate and correlate muscle activation in the gluteal musculature and ankle stability in a healthy population.
