Extent and toxicity of contaminated marine sediments in Southeastern Florida [PDF]

open access: yes, 2004
Thirty sites were sampled in southern Biscayne Bay and Manatee Bay in December 1999 to determine the extent of toxicity in sediments. Analyses and assays included: pesticides and phenols in seawater; chemical contaminants in sediment; amphipod mortality,

Bioelectrical impedance vector analysis (BIVA) for the assessment of two-compartment body composition [PDF]

open access: yesEuropean Journal of Clinical Nutrition, 2014
This review is directed to define the efficacy of bioelectrical impedance vector analysis (BIVA) for assessing two-compartment body composition. A systematic literature review using MEDLINE database up to 12 February 2014 was performed. The list of papers citing the first description of BIVA, obtained from SCOPUS, and the reference lists of included ...

Endothelial Dysfunction in Systemic Sclerosis: The Passive Leg Movement Technique in the Assessment of Nitric Oxide–Mediated Vascular Impairment

open access: yesACR Open Rheumatology, Volume 8, Issue 4, April 2026.
Objective To evaluate the impairment of nitric oxide (NO)–mediated vascular function in patients with systemic sclerosis (SSc) compared with healthy controls through passive leg movement (PLM), which is a noninvasive technique largely dependent on NO bioavailability. Methods Twenty‐one patients with SSc and 21 age‐ and sex‐matched healthy controls were

Bioimpedance patterns and bioelectrical impedance vector analysis (BIVA) of road cyclists

open access: yesJournal of Sports Sciences, 2018
Bioelectrical impedance vector-analysis (BIVA) describes cell-mass, cell function and hydration status of an individual or a group. The goal of the present investigation was to provide bioelectrical impedance data for 525 male road cyclists (155 professionals, 79 elite, 59 elite-youth, and 232 amateurs) at the time of their optimal performance level ...

Asymptotic independence in more than two dimensions and its implications on risk management

open access: yesCanadian Journal of Statistics, Volume 54, Issue 1, March 2026.
Abstract In extreme value theory, the presence of asymptotic independence signifies that joint extreme events across multiple variables are unlikely. Although well understood in a bivariate context, the concept remains relatively unexplored when addressing the nuances of simultaneous occurrence of extremes in higher dimensions.

Pulmonary veno-occlusive disease: a rare and enigmatic cause of pulmonary hypertension—a case report

open access: yesThe Egyptian Journal of Internal Medicine, 2021
Background Pulmonary veno-occlusive disease (PVOD) is a rare form of pulmonary hypertension characterized by remodelling of the pulmonary venules. PVOD and pulmonary arterial hypertension share similar clinical presentation.

A Markov approach to credit rating migration conditional on economic states

open access: yesCanadian Journal of Statistics, Volume 54, Issue 1, March 2026.
Abstract We develop a model for credit rating migration that accounts for the impact of economic state fluctuations on default probabilities. The joint process for the economic state and the rating is modelled as a time‐homogeneous Markov chain. While the rating process itself possesses the Markov property only under restrictive conditions, methods ...

Body composition of Slovak midlife women with cardiovascular complications

open access: yesAnthropological Review, 2016
The aim of this study was to analyse differences in body composition of women with and without cardiovascular complications. Bioelectrical parameters were measured with bioimpedance monofrequency analyser (BIA 101) and tissue electric properties were ...
