Aging is associated with weakening of the circadian system. The circadian amplitude of most physiological variables is reduced, while the circadian phase becomes more labile and tends to occur earlier with advancing age. ...
Heart rate variability and falls in Huntington’s disease
(Dr. Dietrich Steinkopff Verlag, 2020-02)
Purpose: Persons with Huntington's disease (HD) have a high incidence of falls. Autonomic nervous system dysfunction has been reported even in early stages of this disease. To date, there has been no analysis of the ...
Determination and correlation of heat transfer coeffcieints in a falling film evaporator
(Elsevier, 2006-04)
The aim of the work was to determine the heat transfer parameters of a single effect evaporator under different operating conditions, in order to extrapolate them to a multiple effect unit. The falling film evaporator ...
Agricultural impact assessment and management after three widespread tephra falls in Patagonia, South America
(Springer, 2016-06)
Agricultural production is often concentrated in volcanically active or previously active areas where weathered volcanic products form fertile soils. However, this proximity means agriculture is exposed to tephra fall ...
Can exercise help prevent falls in older people living in the community?
(Wiley, 2019-05)
Compared with very mild exercise or no exercise for older adults (mean age 76 years) living in the community, group‐based and/or individual exercise (including balance and functional exercises or different types of training, ...
Laboratory measurements of the sedimentation velocity of hexagonal planar ice crystals
(John Wiley & Sons Ltd, 2018-07-23)
New experimental measurements of the falling velocity, size and orientation of individual hexagonal plate-like ice crystals are reported. The measurements were conducted at three different temperatures: −13, −16 and −20 ...
Past environmental changes during the Late Holocene sea-level fall (last 2.7 Ka) at Bahía Samborombón, NE coastal plain (Argentina)
(Pergamon-Elsevier Science Ltd, 2018-08)
Here we present a reconstruction of vegetation history and environmental changes at the central zone of Bahía Samborombón during the Late Holocene sea-level regressive phase (last 2.7 Ka) corresponding to MIS 1. This study ...
Postmenopausal women with sarcopenia have higher prevalence of falls and vertebral fracturesLas mujeres postmenopáusicas con sarcopenia tienen mayor prevalencia de caídas y fracturas vertebrales
(Fundación Revista Medicina, 2021-02)
Recently, a new consensus of the European Working Group on Sarcopenia in Older People (EWSOP2) recommended new cut-off points for the diagnosis of sarcopenia. The aim of the present manuscript was to assess the prevalence ...
