1. Height-diameter relationships of tropical Atlantic moist forest trees in southeastern Brazil
Site-specific height-diameter models may be used to improve biomass estimates for forest inventories where only diameter at breast height (DBH) measurements are available. In this study, we fit height-diameter models for vegetation types of a tropical Atlantic forest using field measurements of height across plots along an altitudinal gradient. To fit height

2. Identification of SHOX gene deletions: comparison of FISH technique, microsatellites analysis and MLPA / Identificação de deleções do gene SHOX: comparação das técnicas de FISH, análise de microssatélites e MLPA
The SHOX gene (short stature homeobox containing gene), expressed at high levels in osteogenic cells, is essential for bone development and growth process. SHOX haploinsufficiency is responsible for several phenotypes involving short stature, such as Turner syndrome, Léri-Weill dyschondrosteosis (LWD) and idiopathic short stature. Deletions are responsible

3. Analysis of equations for estimation of stature and body fat percentile for children from 6 to 10 years old / Análise de equações para estimativa de estatura e percentual de gordura corporal em crianças de 6 a 10 anos
The present work analyzed available equations in the literature for height estimate and evaluation of the percentile of children s body fat from 6 to 10 years old. The sample consisted of 404 children from public schools, whose were eutrophic for the Body Mass Index /Age and Stature/Age of the Center for Disease Control and Prevention National Center for Hea

4. Height estimation trough limb s long and dry bones and pelvis bones measurements / Determinação da estatura por meio da medida de ossos longos e secos dos membros inferiores e dos ossos da pelve
There are no Brazilian patterns for height estimation through limbs. long and dry bones measurements. The only national paper studied the length of fresh bones, correlating them with body height. Since the Brazilian racial miscegenation is completely "sui generis", a study was proposed on human height in order to establish a pattern for long and dry bones of

5. IncorporaÃÃo da informaÃÃo de parentesco no mÃtodo genealÃgico pelo enfoque de modelos mistos / Using relationship information from pedigree method on mixed model estimation
In the pedigree method it is usually spent an additional effort for recording the genealogies along the generations, that have been attributed little usefulness. This study aimed to evaluate the efficiency of the pedigree method considering the use of relationship among progenies and to compare its performance with the bulk method by computer simulation and

6. "Estado nutricional de alunos de 6 a 10 anos do ensino fundamental (1º e 2º ciclos) de escolas públicas municipais da zona urbana do município de Pinhão - PR" / "Nutritional statue of basic education students (1st and 2nd cycle) between 6 and 10 years old at municipal public schools in the urban area of Pinhão - PR."
Evaluating the nutritional situation of school children is extremely important to diagnose health and disease risks in this age range, as it can avoid future morbidities. This study aimed to estimate the prevalence of nutritional alterations among basic education students (1st and 2nd cycle) at municipal public schools in Pinhão PR, Brazil. The sample ne

7. Carrea index evaluation compared to Retzius Cefafometric and Facial indexes in estimation of human stature / Avaliação do indice de Carrea comparado ao indice cefalometrico de Retzius e indice facial
Quando se dispõe de esqueleto completo ou de ossos longos, pode-se, com relativa facilidade, estimar a estatura por vários procedimentos preconizados por autores como Manouvrier, Etiene, Rollet, Orfila, Pearson, Fully, Dupertois, Hadden e outros. No entanto, quando se dispõe apenas do esqueleto cefálico ou mais especificamente apenas da mandíbula com se

8. Pre-employment lung function at age 16 years as a guide to lung function in adult life.
BACKGROUND--A study was conducted to find out if pre-employment lung function at age 16 improved the estimation of that between ages 25 to 27 compared with the use of reference values based on smoking history, stature, body mass index, and other concurrent anthropometric variables. METHODS--Apprentices attending a shipyard training school were assessed on si
