Introduction and Objectives: Although Next Generation Sequencing (NGS) technologies have significantly improved the molecular diagnosis of MODy, there is still a high percentage of cases in which the clinical suspicion remains without confirmatory molecular diagnosis. The main objective was to identify new candidate genes for MODy, by means of targeted NGS of a cohort of adult patients with clinically suspected MODy, in whom variants in the 14 known MODy genes implicated in it...

Introduction: The metabolic risk associated with air pollution could vary according to the specific pollution levels of each area, as well as factors related to lifestyle (diet, activity physical, socioeconomic status, tobacco), other exposures, comorbidities etc.. and has been insufficiently evaluated in our country.Objective: To study the association between long term exposure to air pollution (measured as PM concentrations) and the incidence of hypert...
