1. Study of Catalytic Pyrolysis of Biomass Sorghum (Sorghum bicolor L. Moench) Using Design of Experiments and Surface Response Methodology
This study proposes a screen of variables that have an influence on the modification of the bio-oil chemical composition as a unique critical quality attribute (CQA) throughout the pyrolytic process (zeolite, ZSM-5) by using a 24 full factorial design, followed by optimization through a response surface methodology (RSM) based on central composite design (CC

4. ENHANCED REMOVAL OF PERSISTENT CONTAMINANTS AND TOXICITY REDUCTION THROUGH THE APPLICATION OF A TRIPLE-STAGE FENTON PROCESS TO SANITARY LANDFILL LEACHATES FROM YUCATAN, MEXICO
Sanitary landfill leachate (SLL) is a mixture of highly toxic and recalcitrant pollutants that threatens the water quality of the Yucatán Peninsula karst aquifer, one of the most extensive aquifers on the planet. To reduce the adverse environmental impacts of this wastewater, a triple-stage Fenton process (FP) was applied in an old SLL. Removal efficiencies

5. Association Between Lipid Profile and Clinical Manifestations in Sickle Cell Anemia: A Systematic Review
Abstract Introduction Sickle cell anemia (SCA) is a genetic disease associated with frequent episodes of acute illness. Changes in the lipid profile and a chronic inflammatory process make up the molecular aspects observed in this disease. Associations between these mechanisms and clinical manifestations could thus define severity profiles and therapeutic

6. Demographic and Epidemiological Profile of Aging and Elderly Patients Receiving Heart Transplant During the Period from 2009 to 2018
Abstract Background: The aging process may be associated with the accumulation of a wide variety of health damages, such as cardiovascular diseases. HF is the final common path of the majority of these diseases, and, in its refractory form, heart transplantation continues to be the best treatment choice. Objective: To describe the demographic and epidemiol

7. Association between demographic factors, anxiety and depression in smokers
Abstract Background Smoking is one of the leading causes of death, although there are several strategies for quitting smoking. Anxiety and depression can hinder this process. Objective To assess levels of anxiety and depression in smokers, adjusting the values for possible confounding variables such as sex, age, schooling, and socioeconomic status. Method

8. Facial processing in bipolar disorder is mediated by clinical and biological aspects
Objective: The process of detecting faces can be considered one of the initial steps in face recognition, which is essential for human interaction. We sought to investigate whether a face perception task reliably detects subtle perceptual disturbances between patients with bipolar disorder (BD) and healthy controls. Methods: In this multisite study, we exam

9. Gas exchange and water stress index in soybean cultivated under water deficit and soil compaction
ABSTRACT Water stress is intrinsically related to soil water availability which is determinant in gas exchanges, as well as soil compaction in soybean growth and development. This study aimed to evaluate the leaf gas exchange, water stress index, and dry mass accumulation of soybean cultivated in different daily irrigation depths and bulk density. The treatm

11. Optimization of banana bar formulation to provide a nourishing snack for toddlers using response surface methodology
Abstract The development of banana-based snack bars that fulfill the nutritional requirement for toddlers is required. In this study, we analyzed the effects of different concentrations of banana puree, banana flour and potato starch on the characteristics of inulin, dietary fiber, protein, and potassium as well as the hardness of banana bars using response
