UK Biobank, big data, and the consequences of non-representativeness
(ELSEVIER SCIENCE INC, 2019)Sin resumen -
Uncovering the Mechanisms of Halotolerance in the Extremely Acidophilic Members of the Acidihalobacter Genus Through Comparative Genome Analysis
(FRONTIERS MEDIA SA, 2019)There are few naturally occurring environments where both acid and salinity stress exist together, consequently, there has been little evolutionary pressure for microorganisms to develop systems that enable them to deal ... -
Understanding Chemical Reactivity in Extended Systems: Exploring Models of Chemical Softness in Carbon Nanotubes
(PEKING UNIV PRESS, 2018)Chemical reactivity towards electron transfer is captured by the Fukui function. However, this is not well defined when the system or its ions have degenerate or pseudo-degenerate ground states. In such a case, the first-order ... -
Understanding contagion dynamics through microscopic processes in active Brownian particles
(Nature Publishing Group, 2020-11)Together with the universally recognized SIR model, several approaches have been employed to understand the contagion dynamics of interacting particles. Here, Active Brownian particles (ABP) are introduced to model the ... -
Understanding gold toxicity in aerobically-grown Escherichia coli
(Chile. Universidad Mayor, 2020)Background There is an emerging field to put into practice new strategies for developing molecules with antimicrobial properties. In this line, several metals and metalloids are currently being used for these purposes, ... -
Understanding How Much TV is Too Much: A Nonlinear Analysis of the Association Between Television Viewing Time and Adverse Health Outcomes
(Chile. Universidad Mayor, 2020)Objective: To inform potential guideline development, we investigated nonlinear associations between television viewing time (TV time) and adverse health outcomes. Methods: From 2006 to 2010, 490,966 UK Biobank participants, ... -
Understanding policy change through bricolage: The case of Chile's renewable energy policy
(WILEY, 2020-07)Chile is a country where path dependency made energy policy change extremely difficult by international standards. However, the country has recently become a renewable energy poster child thanks to a gradual process of ... -
Understanding the Stability of Hollow Nanoparticles with Polycrystalline Shells
(Chile. Universidad Mayor, 2020)The existence of polycrystalline shells has been widely reported in the synthesis of hollow nanoparticles; however, the exact role displayed by the grain boundaries on the stability has been scarcely studied. By including ... -
Understanding time use via data mining: A clustering-based framework
(IOS PRESS, 2018)In this work, a data mining framework is proposed to improve the understanding of how people allocate their time. Using a multivariate approach, we performed a clustering procedure, and subsequently a regression analysis ... -
Unilateral versus Bilateral Landing after Spike Jumps in Male and Female Volleyball: A Systematic Review
(MDPI, 2021-08-06)Background: The spike is a key action in volleyball, and the landing technique and its asymmetries are commonly associated with an increased risk of injury. Objectives: The aim of this systematic review was to assess how ... -
Unlocking Survival Mechanisms for Metal and Oxidative Stress in the Extremely Acidophilic, Halotolerant Acidihalobacter Genus
(MDPI Multidisciplinary Digital Publishing Institute, 2020-11-24)Microorganisms used for the biohydrometallurgical extraction of metals from minerals must be able to survive high levels of metal and oxidative stress found in bioleaching environments. The Acidihalobacter genus consists ... -
Unraveling patient heterogeneity in complex diseases through individualized co-expression networks: a perspective
(FRONTIERS MEDIA SA, 2023-08-10)This perspective highlights the potential of individualized networks as a novel strategy for studying complex diseases through patient stratification, enabling advancements in precision medicine. We emphasize the impact ... -
Unraveling the role of motoneuron autophagy in ALS
(TAYLOR & FRANCIS INC, 2018)In recent years, the role of autophagy in the pathogenesis of most neurodegenerative diseases has transitioned into a limbo of protective or detrimental effects. Genetic evidence indicates that mutations in autophagy-regulatory ... -
Uptake and persistence of bacterial magnetite magnetosomes in a mammalian cell line: Implications for medical and biotechnological applications
(PUBLIC LIBRARY SCIENCE, 2019)Magnetotactic bacteria biomineralize intracellular magnetic nanocrystals surrounded by a lipid bilayer called magnetosomes. Due to their unique characteristics, magnetite magnetosomes are promising tools in Biomedicine. ... -
Urban ecosystem Services in Latin America: mismatch between global concepts and regional realities?
(SPRINGER, 2019)Latin America and the Caribbean (LAC) is one of the most urbanized and biologically diverse regions in the world but is often characterized by weak environmental governance and socioeconomic inequalities. Given large ...
