Chemical routes for the synthesis of nanostructures are fundamental in nanoscience. Among different strategies production nanostructures, this article reviews fundamentals bottom-up approaches, focusing on wet chemistry synthesis. It offers a general view inorganic and hybrid organic–inorganic such as ceramics, metal, semiconductor nanoparticles, mesoporous structures, metal–organic frameworks. This review is especially written wide audience demanding text focused basic concepts ideas...

General practitioners (GPs) play an important role in the physical care of patients with severe mental illness, so our aim was to analyse relationships between GPs' sociodemographic status and worked-related variables their perceptions about illness.A descriptive, cross-sectional study conducted Clinical Management Unit Mental Health (CMU-MH) Regional Hospital Malaga (Spain). The eligible population comprised all GPs working 13 primary centres (PCCs) hospital's catchment area during period....

Hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) is the sixth most common neoplasia and fourth cause of cancer-related mortality worldwide. Sorafenib first-line molecular therapy for patients in an advanced stage HCC. However, recommended clinical dose associated with several complications, which derive from its lack cell specificity very low water solubility. To circumvent these drawbacks, present study we developed two sugar-coated polydiacetylene-based nanomicelles-Sorafenib carriers targeting mannose...

Patients with psychiatric disorders have more physical problems than other patients, so their follow-up by the general practitioner is particularly important for them. We aimed to elaborate a multilevel explanatory model of (GP) visits made patients schizophrenia and related (SRD). An observational, cross-sectional study was conducted from January 1, 2008 July 2011, in area Clinical Management Unit Mental Health (CMU-MH) Regional Hospital Malaga (Spain). The eligible population consisted all...

Abstract Background. It is estimated that 25% of people may experience one or more mental disorders in their lifetime. In Western countries, individuals with mild are treated Primary Care (PC) while those severe Mental Health Services (MHS). The objective this study was to examine referrals from PC MHS, a focus on identifying factors contribute patients missing appointments MHS and characteristics associated who discharged after initial health consultation. Methods. A descriptive,...
