Epidemiological changes in leishmaniasis in Spain according to hospitalization-based records, 1997-2011: raising awareness towards leishmaniasis in non-HIV patients.

TL;DR: A significant increase of hospitalization in the absence of HIV co-infection is suggested, with a predomination of VL, and clinicians in Spain should be aware of leishmaniasis not only in the HIV population but also in non HIV patients, especially for those having immunosuppression as an associate condition.
Journal ArticleDOI

Short-term effect of plyometrics and strength training with and without superimposed electrical stimulation on muscle strength and anaerobic performance: A randomized controlled trial. Part II

TL;DR: If a low number of training sessions are carried out, superimposed EMS leads to a higher strength gain than voluntary training alone, however, if anaerobic power is an important aim of the training, EMS should be applied isometrically instead of superimposedEMS and combined with plyometrics.
Journal ArticleDOI

Effects of whole-body vibration on muscle architecture, muscle strength, and balance in stroke patients: a randomized controlled trial.

TL;DR: It seems that whole-body vibration exercise does not augment the increase in neuromuscular performance and lower limb muscle architecture induced by isometric exercise alone in stroke patients.
Journal ArticleDOI

Cytokine Release Assays as Tests for Exposure to Leishmania, and for Confirming Cure from Leishmaniasis, in Solid Organ Transplant Recipients.

TL;DR: The present work examines the use of cytokine release assays to determine the prevalence of Leishmania infection in this population, and to confirm recovery following treatment for visceral leishmaniasis (VL) and to prevent cured patients from relapsing into this serious condition.
Journal ArticleDOI

Role of asymptomatic and symptomatic humans as reservoirs of visceral leishmaniasis in a Mediterranean context

TL;DR: Screening for latent Leishmania infection in HIV-infected patients is recommended in scenarios where transmission occurs and the HIV / L. infantum coinfected patient with asymptomatic leishmaniasis was easily infectious to sand flies for a long time, despite being under continuous prophylaxis for leish maniasis.
