The Revolution of Data Analysis in Healthcare
Data analysis has become a fundamental pillar for decision-making in healthcare. As the volume and complexity of clinical, genetic, epidemiological, and public health data grow exponentially, the ability to effectively assess this data is essential for improving medical care and individual well-being. This discipline combines statistics, mathematics, programming, and biomedical knowledge to transform large datasets […]
Familial Hypercholesterolemia and the Importance of Metabolomics for Its Detection and Personalized Treatment
Today, on International Familial Hypercholesterolemia (FH) Day, we want to highlight this genetic condition that affects millions of people worldwide and can lead to severe cardiovascular complications if not diagnosed and treated in time.

Role of Metabolomics in Infectious Diseases: A Cross-sectional Approach
Metabolomics is becoming a crucial tool in biomedical research. By analyzing the complete set of metabolites present in a biological sample, such as serum, plasma, or urine, among others, metabolomics offers a direct window into real-time biochemical processes. This makes it an essential technique for understanding how the body responds to various stimuli and conditions, […]
Importance of LDL Cholesterol in Bariatric Surgery Techniques
A recent study led by Dr. David Benaiges (1,2,3,4,5) from the Bariatric Surgery Unit at Hospital del Mar, in collaboration with Albert Goday (1,3,5,6), Anna Casajoana (3,7), Juana A. Flores-Le Roux (1,2,3), Montserrat Fitó (3,5), Oscar J. Pozo (8), Carme Serra (1), Manuel Pera (7), Gemma Llauradó (1,2,3), Elisenda Climent (1,2,3), Montserrat Villatoro […]
The Rising Role of Metabolomics in Clinical Trials
The integration of metabolomics into clinical trials is revolutionizing medical research by providing detailed insights into the biochemical changes associated with various diseases and treatments. Metabolomics, the comprehensive study of small molecules (metabolites) in biological samples, is increasingly being used to understand disease mechanisms, identify biomarkers, and evaluate therapeutic responses. A search in the most […]
Uncovering Biomarkers for Optimal Athletic Performance
Metabolomics, an emerging field that studies the metabolites within our bodies, is revolutionizing our understanding of how exercise affects our health and athletic performance by uncovering biomarkers to maximize our athletic performance. One of the main analytical platforms used in metabolomics is nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR), which provides a comprehensive view of how physical exercise […]
Cardiovascular Risk in Lupus Patients through NMR
Lupus, a chronic autoimmune disease, is closely associated with an elevated risk of cardiovascular diseases, one of the main causes of mortality in these patients. Chronic inflammation and the autoimmune response that characterize lupus not only damage joints and skin but can also significantly affect the cardiovascular system. It accelerates the process of atherosclerosis and […]
Unveiling the Mysteries of Lipoprotein Complexity in Type 2 Diabetes and Cardiovascular Risk
Recent findings published in the European Journal of Clinical Investigation by Montse Guardiola (1 2 3), Pere Rehues (1 2 3), Núria Amigó (2 3 4 5), Francisco Arrieta (6), Manuel Botana (7), José A Gimeno-Orna (8), Josefa Girona (1 2 3), José Ignacio Martínez-Montoro (9 10), Emilio Ortega (11 12 13), Antonio Pérez-Pérez (3 […]
NMR: A Look into the Future for Biomedical Research
Nuclear Magnetic Resonance (NMR) has been a key tool in biomedical research and the study of metabolism and metabolic processes for nearly half a century. With its ability to perform metabolic studies, metabolic profiling, and metabolomics in biofluids and tissues, NMR has established itself as one of the most reliable and versatile techniques in the […]
