Upper and small bowel Crohn's disease in Brazilian children: Phenotypic characteristic and surgical risk. [PDF]

J Pediatr Gastroenterol Nutr
Abstract Objectives Upper and small bowel Crohn's disease (U‐SBCD) represents a clinically aggressive phenotype with high complication rates yet remains diagnostically challenging. In low‐ and middle‐income countries (LMICs), limited inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) awareness contributes to diagnostic delays, but their impact on U‐SBCD outcomes remains

Associations between cognitive and clinical functioning and AD blood based biomarkers among Hispanic and WNH older adults [PDF]

Alzheimers Dement
Abstract Background We examined and compared the associations of Alzheimer's disease (AD) blood‐based biomarkers to clinical and cognitive functioning in Hispanic (n = 214) (an understudied group) and White‐non‐Hispanic (WNH) (n = 169) older adults.

Cable Routing Design and Performance Evaluation for Multi-Link Cable-Driven Robots With Minimal Number of Actuating Cables

IEEE Access, 2019
A multi-link cable-driven robot (MCDR) usually has a large number of redundant actuating cables due to its modular cable routing scheme. To reduce the number of actuating cables while keeping the advantages of the modular MCDRs, a hybrid modular cable ...

Diagnosis and staging of mild cognitive impairment, using a modification of the clinical dementia rating scale: the mCDR [PDF]

International Journal of Geriatric Psychiatry, 2009
AbstractObjectiveTo examine the reliability and validity of the mCDR, a modified version of the clinical dementia rating (CDR) scale.MethodsThe mCDR is an informant‐based, technician‐administered, structured interview with multiple choice responses, which does not include objective cognitive testing. Subjects (n = 556) with no cognitive impairment (NCI)

Regional ocean biogeochemical modeling challenges for predicting the effectiveness of marine carbon dioxide removal

Frontiers in Climate
Effectively scaling diverse marine carbon dioxide removal (mCDR) technologies from pilot-scale demonstrations to industrial-scale deployments requires a quantitative understanding of how much additional carbon a given deployment will sequester compared ...

Size and causes of the underground economy in Spain: a correction of the record and new evidence from the MCDR approach [PDF]

European Journal of Law and Economics, 2013
We review existing estimates of the size of the Spanish underground economy, apply the Ahumada et al. (Rev Income Wealth 53(2):363–371, 2007) correction procedure to some of them and calculate the size of the underground economy in Spain for the period 1960–2009 by using the modified-cash-deposits-ratio (MCDR) approach recently developed by Pickhardt ...

Navigating Potential Hype and Opportunity in Governing Marine Carbon Removal

Frontiers in Climate, 2021
As the technical and political challenges of land-based carbon dioxide removal (CDR) approaches become more apparent, the oceans may be the new “blue” frontier for carbon drawdown strategies in climate governance.

Ocean Deacidification Technologies for Marine Aquaculture

Journal of Marine Science and Engineering, 2022
The increase in partial pressure of CO2 in the oceans directly affects the productivity and survival of coastal industries and ecosystems. For marine aquaculture, the decreased alkalinity of seawater results in reduced availability of carbonates for ...

The impact of large-scale macroalgae cultivation and harvesting strategies on the marine carbon dioxide removal efficacy and marine biogeochemistry [PDF]

Biogeosciences
The large-scale cultivation of macroalgae has been proposed as a marine carbon dioxide removal (mCDR) strategy, yet its efficiency and consequences for ocean biogeochemistry remain uncertain.

MCDR: Mitigating Congestion using Distance based Routing in Wireless Sensor Networks

IOSR Journal of Computer Engineering, 2014
The network performance in WSNs is mainly affected by the congestion due to bursty traffic. Congestion can cause large packet drops, increased energy consumption and latency. Different traffic rate control mechanisms have proposed to mitigate congestion and most of these mechanisms are greatly affecting the fidelity requirement of the applications.
