Procedimento estatístico para validação de escalas diagramáticas na quantificação de doenças
Na validação de escalas diagramáticas de doenças é comum utilizar a regressão linear simples para testar a identidade entre dados estimados e valores reais de severidade de doença. Nestes casos, após ajustar a regressão linear, as hipóteses H01: β0 = 0 e

Stemflow Dynamics in the Jamari National Forest (Brazilian Amazon): I. The Role of Tree Structure
A portion of rainfall that contacts tree canopies is drained down tree stems as stemflow. Stemflow is an underexamined component of rainfall partitioning in tropical forests. To investigate how tree canopy structural attributes influence stemflow in the Brazilian Amazon, we measured stemflow, rainfall, and dendrometric parameters of 56 trees in the ...

Risk factors associated with owner‐reported sleep disturbances in Nordic horses
Abstract Background Very little is known about sleep disturbances in horses, although several management or animal‐based factors may contribute to an increased risk of disturbances. Objectives To investigate factors related to rest and sleep behaviour of horses kept in stalls as perceived by Nordic horse owners or caretakers and their association with ...

Executive function deficits in children born preterm or at low birthweight: a meta‐analysis
Aim To investigate the magnitude of executive function deficits and their dependency on gestational age, sex, age at assessment, and year of birth for children born preterm and/or at low birthweight. Method PubMed, PsychINFO, Web of Science, and ERIC were searched for studies reporting on executive functions in children born preterm/low birthweight and

ABSTRACT Understanding which processes regulate spatial variation in species abundance across their ranges is key in ecology. Species abundances may be affected by several factors, such as climate, elevation, land cover, species interactions and habitat protection status. However, few studies have focused on these effects synergistically across species

Road mitigation for mammals should ideally be informed by site‐level knowledge and generally involve prioritizing species with the combination of larger home ranges, lower reproductive rates and smaller body sizes. To protect these vulnerable mammals from roads, we should maintain low road densities and instal small‐mesh mitigation fencing along roads.

ABSTRACT Aim We aimed to quantify the relative contributions of geographic distance, environmental variation, and riverine barriers to shaping species distributions across the Amazon forest. Location Amazon forest, Brazil. Time Period Present. Major Taxa Studied Class Arachnida; Order: Opiliones (harvestmen).

Claw growth rates in a subset of adult, indoor, domestic cats (Felis catus)
Background – Keratinised tissues, such as nails and claws, accumulate hormones over time; the claws' hormone concentrations are being explored as potential biomarkers. Timelines for hormone deposition can be established if claw growth rates are known. Hormone concentration within cat claws has been recently evaluated, yet the growth rates of cat claws ...
