PURPOSE: Acute pain occurs in over 50% of hospitalized children. The accuracy of this diagnosis has been underexplored in the literature, as has the role of training to implement pain assessment. This study analyzed the ...

Speech accuracy is an indicator for evaluating the language of children with cochlear implant (CI). Verifying the teaching that increases this accuracy and how efficiency measures can be adopted are relevant questions. The ...

The aim of this study was to evaluate the accuracy of imputation in a Gyr population using two medium- density panels (Bos taurus - Bos indicus) and to test whether the inclusion of the Nellore breed increases the imputation ...

This work presents a new methodology for extracting 3D homologous points from a DEM/DSM for relative evaluation of positional accuracies, from terrain features such as ridgelines and hydrography. Firstly, it extracts 3D ...

This study was designed to test the impact of quality control, density and allele frequency of single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNP) markers on the accuracy of genomic predictions, using three traits with different ...

Background: A cost-effective strategy to explore the complete DNA sequence in animals for genetic evaluation purposes is to sequence key ancestors of a population, followed by imputation mechanisms to infer marker genotypes ...

Soil organic matter has direct relationship with soil fertility and quality. However, its estimation in laboratory generates chemical residues which can contaminate the environment, and more ecological methods to determine ...
