No. of bitstreams: 0 Previous issue date: 2021-03-01; From 1985 to 2016, the prevalence of underweight decreased, and that of obesity and severe obesity increased, in most regions, with significant variation in the magnitude of these changes across regions. We investigated how much change in mean body mass index (BMI) explains changes in the prevalence of ...

Alcohol-related liver disease is rarely detected at early stages compared with ...
Shah, Neil D.; Ventura-Cots, Meritxell; Abraldes, Juan G.; Alboraie, Mohamed; Alfadhli, Ahmad; Argemi, Josepmaria; Badia-Aranda, EsterBackground & aims: Despite recent advances in treatment of viral hepatitis, liver-related mortality is high, possibly owing to the large burden of advanced alcohol-related liver disease (ALD). We investigated whether patients with ALD are initially seen at later stages of disease development than patients with hepatitis C virus (HCV) infection or other etiologies. Methods: We performed a cross-sectional study o...
Orbital symmetry fingerprints for magnetic adatoms in graphene
Uchoa, Bruno; Yang, Ling; Tsai, S-W; Peres, N. M. R.; Castro Neto, A. H.In this paper, we describe the formation of local resonances in graphene in the presence of magnetic adatoms containing localized orbitals of arbitrary symmetry, corresponding to any given angular momentum state. We show that quantum interference effects which are naturally inbuilt in the honeycomb lattice in combination with the specific orbital symmetry of the localized state lead to the formation of fingerpr...
