Polymorphisms in miRNA processing genes and their role in osteosarcoma risk
(Wiley, 2015-02-07)
Background
The possible associations between genetic variants and osteosarcoma risk have been analyzed without conclusive results. Those studies were focused mainly on genes of biologically plausible pathways. However, ...
Design and implementation of a cloud computing adoption decision tool: Generating a cloud road
(Public Library of Science, 2015-07-31)
Migrating to cloud computing is one of the current enterprise challenges. This technology provides a new paradigm based on "on-demand payment" for information and communication technologies. In this sense, the small and ...
Potential relationship between single nucleotide polymorphisms used in forensic genetics and diseases or other traits in European population
(Springer, 2015-03-13)
Single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) are an interesting option to facilitate the analysis of highly degraded DNA by allowing the reduction of the size of the DNA amplicons. The SNPforID 52-plex panel is a clear example ...
Promoting psychosocial adaptation of youths in residential care through animal-assisted psychotherapy
(Elsevier, 2015-10-09)
The goal of this study was to examine the influence of animal-assisted psychotherapy (AAP) on the psychosocial adaptation of a group of adolescents in residential care who had suffered traumatic childhood experiences and ...
Gas analyzer's drift leads to systematic error in maximal oxygen uptake and maximal respiratory exchange ratio determination
(Frontiers Media, 2015-10)
The aim was to examine the drift in the measurements of fractional concentration of oxygen (FO2) and carbon dioxide (FCO2) of a Nafion-using metabolic cart during incremental maximal exercise in 18 young and 12 elderly ...
Analysis of DC–DC power supply systems for pulsed loads from green electronics perspective
(The Institution of Engineering and Technology, 2015-06-01)
Discontinuous loads frequently compromise the performance of their power source and electronics. They cause the voltage and current ripple at the source and load, and introduce electromagnetic interferences. Also, they ...
Heart Rate-Based Prediction of Fixed Blood Lactate Thresholds in Professional Team-Sport Players
(Lippincott, Williams & Wilkins, 2015)
The aim of this study was to investigate whether the speed associated with 90% of maximal heart rate (S90%HRmax) could predict speeds at fixed blood lactate concentrations of 3 mmol·L−1 (S3mM) and 4 mmol·L−1 (S4mM). ...
Estimation of the Maximal Lactate Steady State in Junior Soccer Players
(Thieme, 2015-09-02)
This study aimed to predict the velocity corresponding to the maximal lactate steady state (MLSS(V)) from non-invasive variables obtained during an incremental maximal running test (University of Montreal Track Test, UMTT) ...
