Use of Bone Grafts or Modified Bilateral Sagittal Split Osteotomy Technique in Large Mandibular Advancements Reduces the Risk of Persisting Mandibular Inferior Border Defects
(W B SAUNDERS CO-ELSEVIER INC, 2018)Purpose: Healing of the inferior border of the mandible can be compromised in large advancements, leaving an unesthetic defect at the inferior border. The objective of this study was to compare different bilateral sagittal ... -
Linear Versus Nonlinear Acoustic Probing of Plasticity in Metals: A Quantitative Assessment
(MDPI, 2018)The relative dislocation density of aluminum and copper samples is quantitatively measured using linear Resonant Ultrasound Spectroscopy (RUS). For each metallic group, four samples were prepared with different thermomechanical ... -
Perception of obese schoolchildren regarding their participation in the Physical Education class and their level of self-esteem: comparison according to corporal status
(ARAN EDICIONES, S L, 2018)Background: adequate exposure to Physical Education (PE) classes contributes to a healthier lifestyle among children during their lifespan. Objective: the main objective of this research was to evaluate the perception of ... -
A GIS-based framework to identify priority areas for urban environmental inequity mitigation and its application in Santiago de Chile
(ELSEVIER SCI LTD, 2018)Environmental inequity is a common phenomenon of modern cities, particularly in the developing world where the high rates of urbanization often surpass the capacity of local governments to develop proper urban planning. ... -
Periodontitis and placental growth factor in oral fluids are early pregnancy predictors of gestational diabetes mellitus
(WILEY, 2018)Background: Gestational diabetes mellitus (GDM) affects around 7% to 10% of all pregnancies. Early detection of predisposition to GDM is the first step in developing efficacious preventive treatment. The objective of the ... -
Multiple processes acting from local to large geographical scales shape bacterial communities associated with Phormidium (cyanobacteria) biofilms in French and New Zealand rivers
(NATURE PUBLISHING GROUP, 2018)River biofilms dominated by Phormidium (cyanobacteria) are receiving increased attention worldwide because of a recent expansion in their distribution and their ability to produce neurotoxins leading to animal mortalities. ... -
Interindividual responses to different exercise stimuli among insulin-resistant women
(WILEY, 2018)We aimed to investigate which among 20 cardiometabolic and performance outcomes do and do not respond to high-intensity interval training (HIT), resistance training (RT), or concurrent training (CT) in insulin-resistant ... -
Early Motor Unit Conduction Velocity Changes to High-Intensity Interval Training versus Continuous Training
(LIPPINCOTT WILLIAMS & WILKINS, 2018)Purpose Moderate-intensity continuous training (MICT) and high-intensity interval training (HIIT) are associated with different adjustments in motor output. Changes in motor unit (MU) peripheral properties may contribute ... -
Oligomeric poly(ether-imide)s bearing ortho trifluoromethyl groups: Solubility, thermal studies, and optical properties
(WILEY, 2018)In the development of processable high-temperature materials, six new aromatic poly(imide)s based on diamines containing ortho trifluoromethyl groups, ether linkages and R,R-methylenes moieties (R=Me or Ph) and previously ... -
Ventilatory and Autonomic Regulation in Sleep Apnea Syndrome: A Potential Protective Role for Erythropoietin?
(FRONTIERS MEDIA SA, 2018)Obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) is the most common form of sleep disordered breathing and is associated with wide array of cardiovascular morbidities. It has been proposed that during OSA, the respiratory control center (RCC) ... -
Health conditions and unmet needs for assistance to perform activities of daily living among older adults with dementia in Chile
(WILEY, 2018)ObjectiveThis study aims to address gaps in health conditions and unmet needs in daily activities between people with dementia (PWD) and without dementia in a developing country and to identify the variables associated ... -
Correlated dephasing noise in single-photon scattering
(IOP PUBLISHING LTD, 2018)We develop a theoretical framework to describe the scattering of photons against a two-level quantum emitter with arbitrary correlated dephasing noise. This is particularly relevant to waveguide-QED setups with solid-state ... -
Stochastic simulation of multiscale complex systems with PISKaS: A rule-based approach
(ACADEMIC PRESS INC ELSEVIER SCIENCE, 2018)Computational simulation is a widely employed methodology to study the dynamic behavior of complex systems. Although common approaches are based either on ordinary differential equations or stochastic differential equations, ... -
Spectroscopic and photometric study of the eclipsing interacting binary V495 Centauri
(OXFORD UNIV PRESS, 2018)Double Periodic Variables (DPV) are among the new enigmas of semidetached eclipsing binaries. These are intermediate-mass binaries characterized by a long photometric period lasting on average 33 times the orbital period. ... -
Co-existence and switching between fast and Omega-slow wind solutions in rapidly rotating massive stars
(OXFORD UNIV PRESS, 2018)Most radiation-driven winds of massive stars can be modelled with m-CAK theory, resulting in the so-called fast solution. However, the most rapidly rotating stars among them, especially when the rotational speed is higher ... -
