BACKGROUND:
Electronic nicotine delivery systems (ENDS) generate an aerosol by vaporising e-liquids that usually consist of propylene glycol (PG), vegetable glycerine (VG), and other ingredients (water, nicotine, and flavours). The chemical and physical properties of these components have a significant effect on aerosol formation and must be identified in order to improve product attractiveness and assess the degree of health risks.
AIM:
The aim of this article is to provide a description of the composition of the e-liquid base and its impact on the physical properties of the liquid...

Cuando se usa en combinación con otras terapias para los trastornos por consumo de drogas, el neurofeedback (NF) se ha clasificado como "probablemente eficaz", según investigaciones recientes en la comunidad de personas con trastorno por consumo de opioides. A pesar de estos resultados alentadores, la gravedad de la crisis de opioides y el alto riesgo de recaída incluso con la terapia de mantenimiento asistida por medicamentos más eficaz, la NF sigue siendo una opción terapéutica poco estudiada. En este trabajo se examina la posibilidad de incorporar Alpha/Theta Neurofeedback en la...
