Remarks on food chain dynamics [PDF]
The main modes of behavior of a food chain model composed of logistic prey and Holling type II predator and superpredator are discussed in this paper. The study is carried out through bifurcation analysis, alternating between a normal form approach and numerical continuation.

Multiple sclerosis clinical decision support system based on projection to reference datasets
Abstract Objective Multiple sclerosis (MS) is a multifactorial disease with increasingly complicated management. Our objective is to use on‐demand computational power to address the challenges of dynamically managing MS. Methods A phase 3 clinical trial data (NCT00906399) were used to contextualize the medication efficacy of peg‐interferon beta‐1a vs ...

Dishes Adapted to Dysphagia: Sensory Characteristics and Their Relationship to Hedonic Acceptance
Dishes whose texture has been modified for dysphagia undergo changes in other sensory characteristics as well. Therefore, it is necessary to identify these characteristics in adapted dishes and their relationship to hedonic acceptance.

Stability trophic cascades in food chains [PDF]
While previous studies have evaluated the change in stability for the addition or removal of individual species from trophic food chains and food webs, we know of no study that presents a general theory for how stability changes with the addition or removal of trophic levels.
