A Constituição Federal de 1988 estabeleceu a saúde como um direito social, definindo o Estado responsável por garantir esse direito, incluindo acesso universal e equitativo às tecnologias em saúde. Nos últimos anos, houve aumento imunoterapias tal fato tem elevado preocupação com os gastos No Brasil, processo incorporação ou exclusão serem disponibilizadas pelo Sistema Único Saúde (SUS) é reali...

The stability of the soil aggregates is an important quality indicator, as it affects soil’s overall functionality. As are highly affected by agricultural practices, essential to know how crops interact with aggregation process. Therefore, for obtaining more knowledge, this research was conducted in Estonia organic crop rotation field experiment from 2012/2013 through 2015/2016 study effects (p...

The body weight and testicular and epididymal parameters of Afar, Long-eared Somali (LES), and Woyto-Guji (WG) breeds of goat were investigated. A total of 405 randomly selected bucks of Afar (n = 135), Long-eared Somali (n = 135), and Woyto-Guji (n = 135) were included in this study. The overall mean scrotal circumference (SC), testicular volume (TV), testicular length (TL), testicular weight ...

We establish the complexity of several graph embedding problems: Subgraph Isomorphism, Graph Minor, Induced Subgraph and Induced Minor, when restricted to H-minor free graphs. In each of these problems, we are given a pattern graph P and a host graph G, and want to determine whether P is a subgraph (minor, induced subgraph or induced minor) of G. We show that, for any fixed graph H and > 0, if ...

BACKGROUND This study centered on differences in medical costs, using the Taiwan diagnosis-related groups (Tw-DRGs) on medical resource utilization in inguinal hernia repair (IHR) in hospitals with different ownership to provide suitable reference information for hospital administrators. METHODS The 2010-2011 data for three hospitals under different ownership were extracted from the Taiwan Na...

OBJECTIVE Traditional retainers (both metal and fiber-reinforced composite [FRC]) have limitations, and a retainer made from more flexible ligature wires might be advantageous. We aimed to compare an experimental design with two traditional retainers. METHODS In this prospective preliminary clinical trial, 150 post-treatment patients were enrolled and randomly divided into three groups of 50 ...

The purpose of this study was to evaluate the limiting factors of maximal aerobic performance in endurance trained (TW) and sedentary (UW) women. Subjects performed four incremental tests on a cycle ergometer at sea level and in normobaric hypoxia corresponding to 1000, 2500 and 4500 m. Maximal oxygen uptake decrement (Delta VO2 max) was larger in TW at each altitude. Maximal heart rate and ven...

Reclamation of abandoned farmland is crucial to a sustainable agriculture in arid regions. This study aims to evaluate the impact of different reclamation treatments on abandoned salinized farmland. We investigated four artificial reclamation treatments, continuous cotton (CC), continuous alfalfa (CA), tree-wheat intercropping (TW) and trees (TS), which were conducted in 2011–2012 in the Manasi...

This paper presents Large Eddy Simulations of a compressible turbulent flow through a duct of square cross-section with a localized heat source on its bottom wall. The potential applications are related to the accidental heat release in a road tunnel. A constant temperature TW is imposed on all duct walls except for the spot location. Two distinct heating configurations are considered. In the f...

OBJECTIVES Respiratory disease remains one of the leading causes of morbidity and mortality in China. However, little is known about the research status of respirology in three major regions of China-Mainland (ML), Hong Kong (HK) and Taiwan (TW). A 10-year survey of literature was conducted to compare the three regions' outputs in the research of respirology. DESIGN A bibliometric study. SE...
