Mechanical Degradation and Carbonation of Concrete Exposed to Constructed Wetland Environments: A Full-Scale Study

Joaquín Sangabriel-Lomelí · Sergio Aurelio Zamora-Castro · Luis Carlos Sandoval-Herazo · Brenda Suemy Trujillo-García · y 4 más

Constructed wetlands (CWs) are widely used as nature-based solutions for domestic wastewater treatment; however, long-term exposure of concrete infrastructure to saturated and chemically active environments may compromise its durability. This study evaluates the mechanical performance and carbonation progression of con...

Dispersive blow-up for a coupled Schrödinger-fifth order KdV system

Eddye Bustamante · José Jiménez Urrea · Jorge Mejía

In this work we establish a dispersive blow-up result for the initial value problem (IVP) for the coupled Schrödinger-fifth order Korteweg-de Vries system \begin{align*} \left. \begin{array}{rl} i u_t+\partial_x^2 u &\hspace{-2mm}=αuv + γ|u|^2 u, \quad x\in\mathbb R,\quad t\in\mathbb R,\\ \partial_t v + \partial_x^5 v...

Leisure-Time Physical Activity Is Associated With Reduced Risks of Mortality in Adults With General or Abdominal Obesity in Mexico

Gary O’Donovan · Fanny Petermann-Rocha · Gerson Ferrari · Catalina Medina · y 2 más

More research is required to determine whether physical activity reduces the burden of obesity in Mexico, where it is one of the leading public health problems. Therefore, the objective of this study was to investigate whether physical activity was associated with reduced risk of mortality in adults with obesity in the...

Acute polyneuropathy associated with Kambo poisoning: An unusual case report

Julio César Mantilla-Pardo · Juan David García-Valencia · Juan Pablo Fernández-Cubillos

Kambo is a natural secretion obtained from the Amazonian frog Phyllomedusa bicolor, traditionally used in ritualistic and alternative medicine practices for its purported purifying and immunostimulatory effects. Acute intoxication has been associated with neuropsychiatric manifestations, electrolyte disturbances, and s...

Gender-related facilitators and barriers to participation in research on aging using fuzzy cognitive mapping

Vasvi Dhir · Ivan Sarmiento · Isabel McDonald · Maude Gélinas Faucher · y 4 más

In the context of cognitive neuroscience research on aging, older women are often overrepresented in observational research, whereas men are overrepresented in clinical trials. Factors underlying the selection bias between and across genders in research on aging are currently poorly understood. Addressing this knowledg...

Cosmological constraints from a joint DESI DR1 Full-Shape and DR2 BAO

D. Forero-Sánchez · H. Gil-Marín · L. Verde · Z. Ding · y 60 más

Abstract We present a cosmological analysis combining full-shape (FS) clustering measurements from the Dark Energy Spectroscopic Instrument (DESI) DR1 with baryon acoustic oscillation (BAO) measurements from DESI DR2. To achieve a robust combination that accounts for the correlation between the two data releases, we em...

Validation of the Chinese version of the delirium diagnostic tool-provisional (DDT-Pro) among the older adults in the community

Shuyi Xu · Jiyu Chen · Huohuo Dai · Qing Zhang · y 1 más

To validate the Chinese version of the DDT-Pro and to define its cutoffs for delirium and for subsyndromal delirium in community-dwelling older adults.This cross-sectional study included 591 participants. We determined the DDT-Pro cutoffs for best sensitivity, best specificity, or high combined sensitivity-specificity...

Myelomeningocele in a newborn with VACTERL association

Mateo J, Murcia Ramos · María F, Rodríguez Banda · Natalia M, Mazo Correa · Gustavo A, Giraldo Ospina

VACTERL association refers to the concomitant occurrence of congenital malformations such as vertebral defects, anorectal malformations, cardiac anomalies, tracheoesophageal fistula, renal anomalies, and limb defects. This case describes a newborn girl who presented with anomalies compatible with this association, such...
