The burden of heat-related mortality attributable to recent human-induced clima...
Vicedo-Cabrera, A.M.; Scovronick, N.; Sera, F.; Royé, D.; Schneider, R.; Tobias, A.; Astrom, C.; Guo, Y.; Honda, Y.; Hondula, D.M.; Abrutzky, R.Climate change affects human health; however, there have been no large-scale, systematic efforts to quantify the heat-related human health impacts that have already occurred due to climate change. Here, we use empirical data from 732 locations in 43 countries to estimate the mortality burdens associated with the additional heat exposure that has resulted from recent human-induced warming, during the period 1991...
Experimental study of the mechanical properties and durability of self-compacti...
Rao, S.; Raposeiro Da Silva, Pedro; De Brito, JorgeResumo: Cement, as well as the remaining constituents of self-compacting mortars, must be carefully selected, in order to obtain an adequate composition with a granular mix as compact as possible and a good performance in the fresh state (self-compacting effect) and the hardened state (mechanical and durability-related behavior). Therefore in this work the possibility of incorporating nano particles in self-com...
Age-specific periictal electroclinical features of generalized tonic-clonic sei...
Freitas, J.; Kaur, G.; Baca-Vaca Fernandez, G.; Tatsuoka, C.; Kaffashi, F.; A. Loparo, K.; Rao, S.; Loplumlert, J.; Kaiboriboon, K.; Amina, S.Generalized tonic–clonic seizure (GTCS) is the commonest seizure type associated with sudden unexpected death in epilepsy (SUDEP). This study examined the semiological and electroencephalographic differences (EEG) in the GTCSs of adults as compared with those of children. The rationale lies on epidemiological observations that have noted a tenfold higher incidence of SUDEP in adults.Weanalyzed the video-EEG dat...
