Bats Actively Track and Prey on Grape Pest Populations
(Elsevier, 2021-07)
There is growing evidence about the role of insectivorous bats against agricultural pests in various crops. Nevertheless, little research addressed the aggregational and functional responses of bat assemblages to changes ...
Is Gender Inequality a Barrier to Economic Growth? A Panel Data Analysis of Developing Countries
(MDPI, 2021-01-03)
This study provides empirical evidence about the effects of various dimensions of gender inequalities (education, labour market and institutional representation) on economic growth. We use data from the World Bank Development ...
Aftertreatment DeNOx Systems for Future Light Duty Lean-Burned Emission Regulations
(MDPI, 2021-02-01)
Future light duty vehicles in Europe and the United States are required to be certified, owing to progressively more and more stringent regulations [...]
Gut microbiota, innate immune pathways, and inflammatory control mechanisms in patients with major depressive disorder
(Springer Nature, 2021-12-21)
[EN] Although alterations in the gut microbiota have been linked to the pathophysiology of major depressive disorder (MDD), including through effects on the immune response, our understanding is deficient about the straight ...
Influence of Calcium Ion-Modified Implant Surfaces in Protein Adsorption and Implant Integration
(Springer, 2021-04-21)
Background Calcium (Ca) is a well-known element in bone metabolism and blood coagulation. Here, we investigate the link between the protein adsorption pattern and the in vivo responses of surfaces modified with calcium ...
Dataset of an in-use tertiary building collected from a detailed 3D mobile monitoring system and building automation system for indoor and outdoor air temperature analysis
(Elsevier, 2020-06-23)
[EN] A Mobile Monitoring System (MMS) has been designed tak- ing into account the use of technology with high sensor ac- curacy and the ability to be installed easily and quickly in different cardinal locations, distribution ...
Cannabis use and nonuse in patients with first-episode psychosis: A systematic review and meta-analysis of studies comparing neurocognitive functioning
(Association of European Psychiatrists, 2020-01-31)
BACKGROUND.: The implications of cannabis use in the onset of early psychosis and the severity of psychotic symptoms have resulted in a proliferation of studies on this issue. However, few have examined the effects of ...
Perovskite-Based Catalysts as Efficient, Durable, and Economical NOx Storage and Reduction Systems
(MDPI, 2020-02-09)
Diesel engines operate under net oxidizing environment favoring lower fuel consumption and CO2 emissions than stoichiometric gasoline engines. However, NOx reduction and soot removal is still a technological challenge under ...
Prediction of Antimalarial Drug-Decorated Nanoparticle Delivery Systems with Random Forest Models
(MDPI, 2020-07-30)
Drug-decorated nanoparticles (DDNPs) have important medical applications. The current work combined Perturbation Theory with Machine Learning and Information Fusion (PTMLIF). Thus, PTMLIF models were proposed to predict ...
Net-Net AutoML Selection of Artificial Neural Network Topology for Brain Connectome Prediction
(MDPI, 2020-02-14)
Brain Connectome Networks (BCNs) are defined by brain cortex regions (nodes) interacting with others by electrophysiological co-activation (edges). The experimental prediction of new interactions in BCNs represents a ...
