Mapping regional strain in anesthetised healthy subjects during spontaneous ventilation
(2019)
Introduction: Breathing produces a phenomenon of cyclic deformation throughout life. Biomechanically, deformation of the lung is measured as strain. Regional strain recently started to be recognised as a tool in the study ...
The role of spatial heterogeneity in diversity of squamate reptiles in the atlantic forest highlands of southeastern Brazil
(2021-01-01)
Spatial heterogeneity of vegetation is considered to be one of the most important factors that can influence species richness in a region and, therefore, an important driver for species diversity. Here, we investigate how ...
Candidate gene linkage analysis indicates genetic heterogeneity in Marfan syndrome
(Associação Brasileira de Divulgação Científica, 2011-08-01)
Marfan syndrome (MFS) is an autosomal dominant disease of the connective tissue that affects the ocular, skeletal and cardiovascular systems, with a wide clinical variability. Although mutations in the FBN1 gene have been ...
Polishing of water treated by a biological process with heterogeneous photocatalysis
(2010-04-20)
Effluent from a vegetal extraction plant situated in the region of Botucatu, state of São Paulo, Brazil was treated by combining a biological process and heterogeneous photocatalysis. The biologically pretreated effluent ...

A multilevel analysis of the returns to education in Ecuador. The multifaceted impact of human capital
(Alexandru Ioan Cuza University, 2016)
This paper analyses the returns to education in Ecuador based on cross-sectional data collected by a National Survey at the individual- and canton-levels in 2005 and 2015. The multilevel analysis provides the methodological ...
Where Are the Poor Located? A Spatial Heterogeneity Analysis of Monetary Poverty in Peru
(Pontificia Universidad Católica del Perú, 2021)
Determining the heterogeneity in time of the dynamics within a slowly relaxing region of a supercooled liquid: Role of sharp relaxation events
(American Physical Society, 2009-08-26)
Supercooled liquids have been shown to be dynamically heterogeneous with different regions of the system presenting dynamics that vary from each other even by orders of magnitude. Computer simulations have confirmed such ...
Disentangling the environmental heterogeneity, floristic distinctiveness and current threats of tropical dry forests in Colombia
(2018)
Tropical dry forests (TDFs) have been defined as a single biome occurring mostly in the lowlands where there is a marked period of drought during the year. In the Neotropics, dry forests occur across contrasting biogeographical ...
