Relationship Between Muscle Strength, Body Composition and Bone Mineral Density in Adolescents
(2022-01-01)
Adolescence is an important period for the acquisition of bone mass, which can be enhanced by several factors. This study aimed examine the relationships of handgrip strength, free-fat mass, and fat mass with bone mineral ...
The population ecology of male gametophytes: The link between pollination and seed production
(Wiley Blackwell Publishing, Inc, 2016-05)
The fate of male gametophytes after pollen reaches stigmas links pollination to ovule fertilisation, governing subsequent siring success and seed production. Although male gametophyte performance primarily involves cellular ...
The use of artificial neural networks in analysing the nutritional ecology of Chrysomya megacephala (F.) (Diptera: Calliphoridae), compared with a statistical model
(2010)
Artificial neural networks (ANNs) have been widely applied to the resolution of complex biological problems. An important feature of neural models is that their implementation is not precluded by the theoretical distribution ...
WOOD DENSITY VARIATION AND TREE RING DEMARCATION IN Gmelina arborea TREES USING X-RAY DENSITOMETRY
(UNIV FEDERAL LAVRAS-UFLA, 2009)
Due to its relationship with other properties, wood density is the main wood quality parameter. Modern, accurate methods - such as X-ray densitometry - are applied to determine the spatial distribution of density in wood ...
Morphometric evaluation of gingival overgrowth and regression caused by cyclosporin in rats
(Munksgaard Int Publ LtdCopenhagenDinamarca, 2001)
Estimación de la densidad volumétrica y porosidad total usando el penetrómetro
(2018)
Las mediciones de densidad volumétrica y porosidad total están altamente correlacionadas con valores de resistencia a la penetración. El objetivo del presente estudio fue determinar las ecuaciones de regresión que permiten ...
Effects of basic fibroblast growth factor on density and morphology of fibroblasts grown on root surfaces with or without conditioning with tetracycline or EDTA.
(2007-09-01)
A study was conducted to evaluate in vitro the effect of root surface conditioning with basic fibroblast growth factor (b-FGF) on morphology and proliferation of fibroblasts. Three experimental groups were used: non-treated, ...
Multicollinearity and financial constraint in investment decisions: a Bayesian generalized ridge regression
(ROUTLEDGE JOURNALS, TAYLOR & FRANCIS LTD, 2011)
This paper addresses the investment decisions considering the presence of financial constraints of 373 large Brazilian firms from 1997 to 2004, using panel data. A Bayesian econometric model was used considering ridge ...
