Parabolic trough concentrators are currently the most developed and most commonly used solar technologies for electricity generation. The thermal losses play an important role in the performance of the system. This paper describes the methodology and the results of an experimental and numerical investigation of the thermal losses of a small-scale parabolic trough collector. The collector is 3m wide and 4m long, with evacuated tubes with selective coatings.

Although several species of Peucetia (Oxyopidae) live strictly in association with plants bearing glandular trichomes worldwide, to date little is known about whether these associations are mutualistic. 2. In this study we manipulated the presence of Peucetia flava on the glandular plant Rhynchanthera dichotoma in the rainy and post‐rain season, to test the strength of its effects on leaf, bud, and flower damage and plant reproductive output. In addition, we ran independent field experiments to ...

The term gestational trophoblastic disease (GTD) includes both complete and partial moles, which are uncommon nonviable pregnancies with the potential to evolve into a malignancy known as gestational trophoblastic neoplasia. While highly curable, the potential for malignancy associated with molar pregnancies worries the patients, leading them to seek information on the internet. A Facebook page headed by Brazilian specialized physicians in GTD was created in 2013 to provide online support for GTD ...

RESUMO Em contexto nacional e internacional, discute-se a formação médica devido às mudanças na sociedade contemporânea e suas demandas de saúde. No Brasil, preconiza-se a inserção do aluno na Atenção Primária à Saúde (APS) durante todo o curso médico. Tal inserção é dificultada pelos cenários práticos inadequados, pela falta de preceptores, pela formação insuficiente dos médicos generalistas para receber estudantes, pelos docentes sem capacitação adequada para o ensino na área e pela resistência ...

Cancer is the second leading cause of death worldwide and there is epidemiological evidence that demonstrates this tendency is emerging. Naringenin (NGEN) is a trihydroxyflavanone that shows various biological effects such as antioxidant, anticancer, anti-inflammatory, and antiviral activities. It belongs to flavanone class, which represents flavonoids with a C6-C3-C6 skeleton. Flavonoids do not exhibit sufficient activity to be used for chemotherapy, however they can be chemically modified by complexation ...

Several studies have reported that plant structural components can exert strong influences on the density and distribution of spiders. However, little is known about which plant traits mediate specific associations between spiders and plants. In southeastern Brazil, the lynx spider Peucetia flava Keyserling 1877 (Oxyopidae) is commonly found on the plant Rhyncanthera dichotoma (Melastomataceae), a shrub that bears glandular trichomes. In this study we investigated if Peucetia occurs strictly on Rhyncanthera ...

Facial trauma can be considered one of the most serious aggressions found in the medical centers due to the emotional consequences and the possibility of deformity. In craniofacial surgery, the use of autologous bone is still the first choice for reconstructing bony defects or irregularities. When there is a shortage of donor bone or a patient refuses an intracranial operation, alloplastic materials such as polymethylmethacrylate (PMMA) can be used. The PMMA prosthesis can be pre-fabricated, bringing ...

Due to the activity of GSTs in the detoxification of oxidative stress products, deletion polymorphisms of GSTM1 and GSTT1 may contribute to susceptibility to T2DM, since B-cells express very low levels of antioxidant enzymes. Recently, some studies have shown an association between GSTM1-null/GSTT1-null genotypes and an increased susceptibility to T2DM. A relationship between these polymorphisms and changes in the clinical parameters of diabetic patients has also been investigated. However, the ...

An integrated electro-MBR (eMBR) was established to explore the performance of antifouling and contaminants removal under the role of electrocoagulation (EC) coupled with an electric field (EF). During the 39 d of operation, the membrane service cycle of the eMBR after each hydraulic cleaning was ~8 d, on average, which was 1.3 times longer that of MBR. The eMBR exhibited a marked improvement in ...

Despite its economic importance, there are few QTL associated with age at puberty described in the literature. In this study, a weighted single‐step genome‐wide association study was performed to detect genomic regions and putative candidate genes related to age at puberty in young Nelore bulls. Several protein‐coding genes related to spermatogenesis functions ...
