Abstract
Radiant catalytic ionization (RCI) is a novel technology that uses the appropriate wavelength (240-260 nm) and the phenomenon of photo-oxidation leading to permanent removal of viruses, bacteria, and fungi. Here, two analyses were performed. The first of them was a complete analysis of environmental biosecurity in a hospital environment. The second one was a longitudinal study with 40 patients with confirmed COVID19 and high viral load to assess the efficacy of RCI technology eliminating airborne SARS-CoV-2 indoors. A significant decrease in the number of bacteria and fungi colony-forming units (CFUs) was found in rooms with RCI when compared with rooms without it (p=0.03 for both of them). In the second part of the study, 16 samples out of 40 (40%) were positives when RCI technology was absent; whereas, these samples were negative when the equipment was on. Incidence rates (IR) with their Poisson 95% Confidence Intervals (CI) were calculated as the number of positive tests with the purifier or without it, showing an IR difference of 48.5% [CI(15.9-81), p=0.004]. Furthermore, the IR ratio was calculated obtaining a value of 3.3, confirming that RCI diminished more than 3-fold the presence of the SARS-CoV-2 in the air of the patients' rooms, thus laying the first stone in the fight for prevention of SARS-CoV-2 dissemination indoors.

Abstract
Nowadays, there is an important controversy about coronavirus air transmission. The aim of this study was to determine aerosol transmission from patients with coronavirus infection using "COVID-19 traps" that included different untouched surfaces within them. 42 swab samples of 6 different surfaces placed in the rooms of 6 patients with a positive diagnostic of COVID-19 were analyzed with RT-PCR technique to evaluate the presence of the virus and its stability. Samples were collected at 24, 48 and 72 h. Patients were in an intensive care unit (ICU) and in a COVID-19 ward unit (CWU) at a Spanish referral hospital. None of the samples placed in the ICU unit were positive for COVID-19. However, two surfaces, placed in a CWU room with a patient that required the use of respiratory assistance were positive for coronavirus at 72 h. Surfaces could not be touched by patients or health workers, so viral spreading was unequivocally produced by air transmission. Thus, fomites should be considered as a possible mode of transmission of coronavirus and frequent disinfection of surfaces should be taken into account. Our results, although preliminary, point the importance of SARS-CoV-2 virus air transmission indoors and may shed some light in this debate.

Abstract
Alzheimer's disease (AD) is the most common form of dementia. It affects approximately 6% of people over the age of 65 years. It is a clinicopathological, degenerative, chronical and progressive disease that exhibits a deterioration of memory, orientation, speech and other functions. Factors contributing to the pathogenesis of the disease are the presence of extracellular amyloid deposits, called neuritic senile plaques, and fibrillary protein deposits inside neurons, known as neurofibrillary bundles, that appear mainly in the frontal and temporal lobes. AD has a long preclinical latency and is difficult to diagnose and prevent at early stages. Despite the advent of novel high-throughput technologies, it is a great challenge to identify precise biomarkers to understand the progression of the disease and the development of new treatments. In this sense, important knowledge is emerging regarding novel molecular and biological candidates with diagnostic potential, including microRNAs that have a key role in gene repression. On the other hand, proteomic approaches offer a platform for the comprehensive analysis of the whole proteome in a certain physiological time. Proteomic technology investigates protein expression directly and reveals post-translational modifications known to be determinant for many human diseases. Clinically, there is growing evidence for the role of proteomic and metabolomic technologies in AD biomarker discovery. This review discusses the role of several miRNAs identified using genomic technologies, and the importance of novel proteomic and metabolomic approaches to identify new proteins and metabolites that may be useful as biomarkers for monitoring the progression and treatment of AD.

Abstract
In chronic kidney disease, as in many other diseases, dysbiosis of intestinal microbiota has been reported as a disturbance or imbalance of the normal microbiome content that could disrupt the symbiotic relationship between the host and associated microbes, a disruption that can result in diseases. The disruption of gut barrier function allows the translocation of endotoxins and bacterial metabolites to the organism, thus contributing to uremic toxicity, inflammation and progression of chronic kidney disease. Increased intake of some nutrients and different nutritional strategies have been proposed to modulate gut microbiota, thus offering the opportunity for therapeutic interventions modifying the diet, decreasing uremic toxins production, increasing toxin excretion and finally modifying the normal microbiome content. The use of probiotics, prebiotics and low protein diets, among other approaches, could also improve this imbalance and/or decrease permeability of the intestinal barrier. In this review, the link between nutrients, microbiota and uremic toxins with chronic kidney disease progression has been studied thoroughly. Furthermore, this review outlines potential mechanisms of action and efficacy of probiotics, prebiotics and low protein diets as a new chronic kidney disease management tool.

Abstract
The predictive accuracy of the traditional staging system for cancer, the American Joint Committee on Cancer/Union Internationale Centre le Cancer (AJCC/UICC) classification of malignant tumors, is based on disease progression as a tumor cell-autonomous process, regardless the effects of the host immune response. The natural history of a tumor includes different phases of growth, migration and invasion. During these phases, tumor cells interact with their microenvironment and are influenced by signals from stromal, endothelial, inflammatory and immune cells. Indeed, tumors are often infiltrated by defensive cells such as lymphocytes, macrophages or mast cells and it has been shown extensively that lymphocytes may control cancer outcome, as evidenced in several human malignancies. Increasing evidence suggests that cancer progression is strongly influenced by host immune response, which is represented by immune cell infiltrates. The T-lymphocyte-based immunoscore (IS) has proved to be a prognostic factor in human malignancies such as colon, pancreas and lung cancer, hepatocellular carcinoma, melanoma and even brain metastases. Although the IS was initially established to evaluate the prognosis of stage I/II/III colon cancer patients, its association with clinical outcomes and survival has been shown in other malignancies. The aim of this review is to analyze the association of IS with prognosis, survival and response to therapy in different tumor types.

Abstract
Circadian system is comprised by central circadian pacemaker and several peripheral clocks that receive information from the external environment, synchronizing the circadian clocks. It is widely known that physiology is rhythmic and that the rupture of this rhythmicity can generate serious consequences. Circadian clocks, led by suprachiasmatic nucleus (SCN) in the central nervous system, are the responsible for generating this biological rhythmicity. These clocks are affected by external signals such as light (changes between day and night) and feeding rhythms. In this review, the basic principles of the circadian system and current knowledge of biological clocks are addressed, analyzing the relationship between circadian system, food intake, nutrition, and associated metabolic processes. In addition, the consequences occurring when these systems are not well coordinated with each other, such as the development of cardiovascular and metabolic pathologies, will be thoroughly discussed.

Abstract
Gut microbiota has significant effects on the structure and function of the enteric and central nervous system including human behaviour and brain regulation. Herein, we analyze the role of this intestinal ecosystem, the effects of dietary changes and the administration of nutritional supplements, such as probiotics, prebiotics, or fecal transplantation in neuropsychiatric disorders. Numerous factors have been highlighted to influence gut microbiota composition, including genetics, health status, mode of birth delivery and environment. However, diet composition and nutritional status has been repeatedly shown to be one of the most critical modifiable factors of this ecosystem. A comprehensively analysis of the microbiome-intestine-brain axis has been performed, including the impact of intestinal bacteria in alterations in the nervous, immune and endocrine systems and their metabolites. Finally, we discuss the latest literature examining the effects of diet composition, nutritional status and microbiota alterations in several neuropsychiatric disorders, such as autism, anxiety, depression, Alzheimer's disease and anorexia nervosa.

Abstract
Over time, the relationship between diet and health has aroused great interest, since nutrition can prevent and treat several diseases. It has been demonstrated that general recommendations on macronutrients and micronutrients do not affect to every individual in the same way because diet is an important environmental factor that interacts with genes. Thus, there is a growing necessity of improving a personalized nutrition to treat obesity and associated medical conditions, taking into account the interactions between diet, genes and health. Therefore, the knowledge of the interactions between the genome and nutrients at the molecular level, has led to the advent of nutritional genomics, which involves the sciences of nutrigenomics and nutrigenetics. In this review, we will comprehensively analyze the role of the most important genes associated with two interrelated chronic medical conditions, such as obesity and cardiovascular diseases.

Abstract
Long-term consumption of a high-protein diet could be linked with metabolic and clinical problems, such as loss of bone mass and renal dysfunction. However, although it is well accepted that a high-protein diet may be detrimental to individuals with existing kidney dysfunction, there is little evidence that high protein intake is dangerous for healthy individuals. High-protein meals and foods are thought to have a greater satiating effect than high-carbohydrate or high-fat meals. The effect of high-protein diets on the modulation of satiety involves multiple metabolic pathways. Protein intake induces complex signals, with peptide hormones being released from the gastrointestinal tract and blood amino acids and derived metabolites being released in the blood. Protein intake also stimulates metabolic hormones that communicate information about energy status to the brain. Long-term ingestion of high amounts of protein seems to decrease food intake, body weight, and body adiposity in many well-documented studies. The aim of this article is to provide an extensive overview of the efficacy of high protein consumption in weight loss and maintenance, as well as the potential consequences in human health of long-term intake.
