La migraña es un tipo de dolor crónico que afecta a amplios sectores de la población y, al mismo tiempo, pone en cuestión los modos de reconocer y legitimar socialmente un malestar ya que carece de evidencias empíricas, de respuestas certeras desde los saberes biomédicos, y su diagnóstico emerge luego de realizar estudios que dan bien y de descartar algo grave.
This book will serve as the preeminent text book on the topic of 'base excision repair', a key DNA repair pathway that protects cells from most spontaneous forms of DNA damage, including oxidative lesions that arise both in the nuclear and mitochondrial genomes.
Despite substantial evidence showing the feasibility of Atomic Force Microscopy (AFM) to identify cells with altered elastic and adhesive properties, the use of this technique as a complementary diagnostic method remains controversial.
