Microbial engineering strategies for synthetic microplastics clean up: a review on recent approaches
(2023)
Microplastics are the small fragments of the plastic molecules which find their applications in various routine products such as beauty products. Later, it was realized that it has several toxic effects on marine and ...
The obesity paradox: associations between the body mass index and self-perceived health, depression status, and pain level in older people
(2023)
Population growth and physical inactivity have led to health and social consequences derived from chronic diseases and decreased quality of life in the elderly. Some research suggests that overweight in older people may ...
An opportunity for prevention: associations between the life's essential 8 score and cardiovascular incidence using prospective data from uk biobank
(2023)
To investigate the association between the Life's Essential 8 (LE8) score and the incidence of four cardiovascular outcomes (ischemic heart disease, myocardial infarction, stroke, and heart failure [HF]) – separately and ...
The association between walking pace and grip strength and all-cause mortality: a prospective analysis from the MAUCO cohort
(2023)
Objective
This study investigated the individual and combined association of walking pace and grip strength with all-cause mortality in Chilean adults.

Layerwise theories for composite beams with continuous and discontinuous stresses
(2023)
Due to the unique characteristics of composite materials, the study of composite beams is far more complex than the study of homogeneous beams. The finite element method has proven to be a powerful approach to analyze ...
Machine learning modeling for the prediction of plastic properties in metallic glasses
(2023)
Metallic glasses are one of the most interesting mechanical materials studied in the last years, but as amorphous solids, they differ strongly from their crystalline counterparts. This matter can be addressed with the ...
Rupture properties of the 2020 Mw 6.8 Calama (northern Chile) intraslab earthquake. comparison with similar intraslab events in the region
(2023)
We study the 2020 Mw 6.8 Calama earthquake sequence that occurred within the subducting oceanic Nazca plate. The main shock is modelled via waveform inversion using a dynamic rupture model, while detection and location ...
An in-silico study to gain a comprehensive understanding of the effects of glucosylation on quercetin properties
(2023)
In order to gain a molecular understanding of why quercetin characteristics are altered by glucosylation, DFT calculations and MD simulations were utilized. According to DFT findings, glucosylation of quercetin altered its ...
Biological properties of exopolysaccharides produced by Bacillus spp.
(2023)
There is currently a constant search for ecofriendly bioproducts, which could contribute to various biomedical applications. Among bioproducts, exopolysaccharides are prominent contemporary extracellular biopolymers that ...
Determinantes de la transición de la escuela al trabajo en Chile
(2023)
En Chile, actualmente la población categorizada como jóvenes que ni estudian ni trabajan (conocidos como nini) asciende a cerca de medio millón de personas, lo que presenta un desafío en la orientación de estrategias que ...
