Aerobic capacity of Peruvian Quechua: a test of the developmental adaptation hypothesis
(Wiley, 2015)
High altitude natives are reported to have outstanding work capacity in spite of the challenge of oxygen transport and delivery in hypoxia. To evaluate the developmental effect of lifelong exposure to hypoxia on aerobic ...
Genetic variants at the EGLN1 locus associated with high-altitude adaptation in Tibetans are absent or found at low frequency in highland Andeans
(Wiley, 2019)
EGLN1 encodes the hypoxia-inducible factor (HIF) pathway prolyl hydroxylase 2 (PHD2) that serves as an oxygen-sensitive regulator of HIF activity. The EGLN1 locus exhibits a signature of positive selection in Tibetan and ...
Adaptive identification and nonlinear optimal control for glucose regulation in type 1 diabetic patients
(Universidad Michoacana de San Nicolás de Hidalgo, 2018-02)
This thesis reports an adaptive identification scheme applied to uncertain and disturbed nonlinear systems. The adaptive identifier parameters are adapted on-line using a recursive least-squares algorithm. As an important ...
Incremental Q-learning strategy for adaptive PID control of mobile robots
(Pergamon-Elsevier Science Ltd, 2017-09)
Expert and intelligent systems are being developed to control many technological systems including mobile robots. However, the PID (Proportional-Integral-Derivative) controller is a fast low-level control strategy widely ...
Apical periodontitis promotes insulin resistance and alters adaptive immunity markers in rats
(2021-01-01)
Objective: Apical periodontitis (AP) is a chronic or acute inflammatory disease usually developed from endodontic infections, predominantly due to gram-negative anaerobic bacteria invading the dental pulp. This study aimed ...
A novel transdisciplinary methodology and experience to guide climate change health adaptation plans and measures
(Springer Nature, 2020)
Abstract.
Climate change and socio-economic and environmental determinants of health (SDH) are the first acknowledged root-causes of infectious diseases. Controlling for SDH would reduce disease burden and promote adaptation. ...
Adaptive genetic variation mediates bottom-up and top-down control in an aquatic ecosystem
(The Royal Society, 2015-08)
Research in eco-evolutionary dynamics and community genetics has demon- strated that variation within a species can have strong impacts on associated communities and ecosystem processes. Yet, these studies have centred ...
