A new endemic pearl cichlid of the ‘Geophagus’ brasiliensis (Cichliformes: Cichlidae) species group from the Piranga River, upper Doce River basin, southeastern Brazil

open access: yesJournal of Fish Biology, EarlyView.
Abstract A new species of pearl cichlid of the ‘Geophagus’ brasiliensis species group, endemic to the Piranga River, a major tributary of the upper Doce River basin in the state of Minas Gerais, southeastern Brazil, is herein described. The new species is delimited using an integrative approach, with molecular‐based species delimitation methods coupled

Trapezoidal approximation based on middle of maxima and middle of support

open access: yes, 2009
In many fuzzy logic applications, the calculations strongly depend on the fuzzy number membership functions. Less regular membership functions lead to calculations that are more complicated. A natural need is to approximate fuzzy numbers with the simpler shapes which are easy to handle and have natural interpretations. Since one can easily propose many

Intermittent hypoxia increases lipid insulin resistance in healthy humans: A randomized crossover trial

open access: yesJournal of Sleep Research, Volume 34, Issue 2, April 2025.
This scheme illustrates the main results of the present study showing an increase in circulating free fatty acids (FFA) that are likely to be related to several mechanisms like decrease in FFA insulin sensitivity and increase in FFA production. Significant changes are labelled in white, and non‐significant or hypothesis are labelled in pale green ...

Differential Nap‐To‐Nap Stability of Sleep Spindles, Slow Waves, and their Temporal Coupling: An Exploratory Study

open access: yesJournal of Sleep Research, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Slow waves and sleep spindles characterise non‐rapid eye movement (NREM) sleep and support cognitive and plasticity‐related functions. While their stability across nights is well established, less is known about their consistency across daytime naps.

Electromyography Frequency Spectrum Is a Better Indicator of Sleep Bruxism Severity Related to Temporomandibular Disorder Pain Than Conventional Masticatory Muscle Activation and Bruxism Time Indices—A Pilot Study

open access: yesJournal of Sleep Research, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Sleep bruxism (SB) has been reportedly associated with temporomandibular disorder (TMD); however, solid evidence is lacking. Previous studies have primarily used traditional metrics, such as the masticatory muscle activity (MMA) index and bruxism time index (BTI) to investigate the link between SB and TMD.
