Social instability decreases alloparental care and quality of weaned offspring in a communally rearing rodent
(Chile. Universidad Mayor, 2017-11)Social groups may experience permanent changes in adult composition. While field-based studies suggest this form of social instability may convey costs to the females, factors underlying these effects remain unclear. The ... -
Social sequencing to determine patterns in health and work-family trajectories for U.S. women, 1968-2013
(ELSEVIER SCI LTD, 2018)Background: Women's social roles (partnership, parenthood, and worker status) are associated with health, with more roles being associated with lower mortality rates. Few studies have examined social roles using a lifecourse ... -
Social structure in a family group of Guanaco (Lama guanicoe, Ungulate): Is female hierarchy based on 'prior attributes' or 'social dynamics'?
(CIENCIAS, 2013)Social life involves costs and benefits mostly associated with how individuals interact with each other. The formation of hierarchies inside social groups has evolved as a common strategy to avoid high costs stemming from ... -
Socially unstable conditions experienced during development prime female Octodon degus to shape the phenotype of their own offspring
(ACADEMIC PRESS INC ELSEVIER SCIENCE, 2021-08)Because residents and immigrants from group living species may experience fitness costs associated with permanent changes in group membership, we examined the hypothesis that females experiencing socially unstable or ... -
Socio-demographic patterning of objectively measured physical activity and sedentary behaviours in eight Latin American countries: Findings from the ELANS study
(Chile. Universidad Mayor, 2020)Physical activity (PA) and sedentary behaviours (SB) are two independent risk factors for non-communicable diseases. However, there is a lack of objectively measured information on PA and SB in low- and middle-income ... -
Socio-demographic patterns of public, private and active travel in Latin America: Cross-sectional findings from the ELANS study
(Elsevier BV, 2020-03)Background: Active travel such as walking or cycling has been associated with more favorable health outcomes. However, evidence on patterns of transportation in Latin America is scarce. Therefore, the aim of this study was ... -
Sociodemographic inequities and active transportation in adults from Latin America: an eight-country observational study
(BMC, 2021-08-26)Background: Active transportation is a crucial sort of physical activity for developing sustainable environments and provides essential health benefits. This is particularly important in Latin American countries because ... -
Sociodemographic patterns of urine sodium excretion and its association with hypertension in Chile: a cross-sectional analysis
(CAMBRIDGE UNIV PRESS, 2019)ObjectiveThe aim of the study was to determine the main factors (sociodemographic, anthropometric, lifestyle and health status) associated with high Na excretion in a representative population of Chile.DesignNa excretion ... -
Socioecological conditions predict degu social instability and provide limited cues to forecast subsequent breeding conditions
(SPRINGER, 2021-05)Permanent changes in group membership may result in detrimental fitness effects on both group residents and immigrants. Factors associated with this form of social instability are rarely documented. We used a 15-year dataset ... -
Socioeconomic position and executive functioning from childhood to young adulthood: Evidence from Santiago, Chile
(ELSEVIER SCI LTD, 2023-04)Background: Optimizing cognitive development through early adulthood has implications for population health. This study aims to understand how socioeconomic position (SEP) across development relates to executive functioning. ... -
Sodium tungstate: Is it a safe option for a chronic disease setting, such as diabetes?
(WILEY, 2019)Diabetes is a complex metabolic disorder triggered by the deficient secretion of insulin by pancreatic cells, the resistance of peripheral tissues to the action of the hormone, or both, and is characterized by chronic ... -
Soft or Hard? Investigating the Deformation Mechanisms of Au-Pd and Pd Nanocubes under Compression: An Experimental and Molecular Dynamics Study
(AMER CHEMICAL SOC, 2021-11-18)In the search for new mechanisms to improve and control the mechanical properties of nanostructures, the idea of tuning the strength through composition is appealing because of the extensive experimental availability of ... -
Soil bacterial community structure of fog-dependent Tillandsia landbeckii dunes in the Atacama Desert
(SPRINGER WIEN, 2021-09-06)The interplay between plants and soil drives the structure and function of soil microbial communities. In water-limited environments where vascular plants are often absent and only specialized groups of rootless plants ... -
Soil contamination in nearby natural areas mirrors that in urban greenspaces worldwide
(NATURE PORTFOLIO, 2023-03-27)Soil contamination is one of the main threats to ecosystem health and sustainability. Yet little is known about the extent to which soil contaminants differ between urban greenspaces and natural ecosystems. Here we show ... -
Soil microbial abundance and activity across forefield glacier chronosequence in the Northern Patagonian Ice Field, Chile
(Chile. Universidad Mayor, 2020)In recently deglaciated soils, microbial organisms drive soil transformations by increasing carbon (C) and nitrogen (N) pools while depleting available phosphorous (P), thus improving plant colonization and soil development. ... -
Sources and diffusive air-water exchange of polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons in an oligotrophic North-Patagonian lake
(Elsevier, 2020-10)Polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) are semivolatile organic compounds of environmental concern. This study aims to investigate the influence of local sources of anthropogenic PAHs and their air-water exchange fluxes ... -
Spatial and Temporal Variability in the Development and Potential Toxicity of Phormidium Biofilms in the Tarn River, France
(MDPI, 2018)Proliferation of Phormidium biofilms in rivers is becoming a worldwide sanitation problem for humans and animals, due to the ability of these bacteria to produce anatoxins. To better understand the environmental conditions ...
