Radial velocity surveys suggest that the Solar System may be unusual and that Jupiter-like planets have a frequency < 20% around solar-type stars. However, they may be much more common in one of the closest associations in the solar neighbourhood. Young moving stellar groups are the best...
Significant reductions in socio-demographic index (SDI)-related inequality occurred in protein-energy malnutrition and vitamin A deficiency, while the health inequality for dietary iron deficiency and iodine deficiency remained basically unchanged. The age-standardized prevalence and DALY rates of the four...
Although typical infection is only a short-term pathological process, it may have a profound effect on MDD. Multiple meta-analyses have confirmed [75,76,77] that considerable consensus exists on the increase of pro-inflammatory cytokines and acute-phase proteins, in particular c-reactive protein (...
Parental occupations range from unemployed to senior public servants, professionals, managers, large-scale traders, businessmen, and contractors, while educational attainment ranges from no formal education to a graduate degree.

However, to be able to investigate this relationship and to compare surveys with diverging results, the utilized measuring instruments should measure equivalent constructs. Besides this aspect of content validity, comparative investigations require appropriate evidence for validation in the local context of ...
Using a lab-in-the-field experiment with Ugandan fishers, we study if and how the use of a common pool resource changes when the resource is either scarce
In surveys carried out in other countries in South America, the number of young ranged from 3 to 9 in Venezuela [28] and in Colombia the average number of young per female/year was 13.5 [47]. A key feature perceived by those who have a closer contact with common opossum is the fact ...
they use the nest throughout the brooding period. The pre-fledging period in gulls ranges from 4 to 7 weeks, depending on the size of the species. The full extent of post-fledging parental care has not been established for gulls, but for some it clearly extends for a few weeks post-fle...
Both rare and common species experienced declines, increases and fluctuations in population abundance over time (Figs. 3 and 4). Across these time series, species with smaller ranges, smaller population sizes or narrower habitat specificity (i.e., rare species) were not more prone to population ...
Interactive content, such as quizzes, polls, and surveys, can be a great way to engage with your audience and generate valuable insights about your customers. By creating interactive content, you can encourage consumers to actively participate in the marketing process and make it easier for them...
