(Fundacao Oswaldo Cruz, 2002)Mepraia spinolai is a silvatic species of Triatominae which prefers microhabitats near to or in rock piles. It is also able to maintain similar or higher size populations near houses. The density of bugs in quarries near ...

(Frontiers Media S.A., 2015)Spiders are small arthropods that have colonized terrestrial environments. These impose three main problems: (i) terrestrial habitats have large fluctuations in temperature and humidity; (ii) the internal concentration of ...
-
(2011)One of the hypotheses that attempt to explain physiological limitations of energy budgets is the symmorphosis hypothesis, which proposes that if matching structures to functional needs were combined with the strict economy ...
-
(Amer Arachnological Soc, 2016)Although sexual size dimorphism is a widely observed phenomenon in nature, the selective forces that led to it are still controversial. Here we study sexual dimorphism in the static allometry of the legs of a large ground ...

(Sociedad Médica de Santiago, 2010-08-02)In order to increase awareness of the pandemic and to streamline control measures before any new outbreak of infl uenza we analyze the behavior of the cases of Chile and from 9 countries with more cases in 2009. Reproductive ...
-
(Universidad de la Frontera, 2019)Determining kinematics of hindlimbs of theropod dinosaurs has been a challenge. Since cursorial birds are phylogenetically closest to theropod dinosaurs they are commonly used as a kinematic model of theropod dinosaur ...
-
(Inst Nacional Nutrición, 2015)Background: The evidence provided by medical imaging techniques for the staging and follow-up is relevant in oncology. Objectives: The aims were (i) to compare the monitoring methods, (ii) to analyze the response variability ...
-
(Universidad de Chile, 2011)Los parámetros hematológicos y pulmonares parecen responder a las exigencias ambientales como la hipoxia y la alta altitud y a los requerimientos energéticos de la locomoción. En este trabajo se sometió a prueba la hipótesis ...

(Universidad de Chile, 2012)Se estudió la plasticidad fenotípica inducida ambientalmente en la capacidad funcional aeróbica en el roedor de desarrollo tardío Phyllotis darwini. Se investigaron las tasas metabólicas basales y máximas (la medición del ...

Changes in age and geographic distribution of the risk of Chagas disease in Chile from 1989 to 2017 (Mary Ann Liebert, 2020)The interruption of vector-borne transmission of Chagas disease was certified in Chile in 1999. Our goal was to determine the effects of the interruption of vector transmission on the age and spatial distributions of the ...

(Universidad de Chile, 2004)Con el fin de obtener mayor cantidad de oxígeno para satisfacer requerimientos metabólicos, un ser vivo puede recurrir a la optimización de ciertos parámetros estructurales pulmonares. En esta memoria se estudió la densidad ...

(2009)The aim of this work was to determine the impact of specific hosts on a population of Mepraia spinolai (Porter) (Hemiptera, Reduviidae), a sylvatic vector of Chagas' disease in Chile. We assessed whether a recently introduced ...
-
(WILEY-LISS, DIV JOHN WILEY & SONS INC, 2010-03-08)We analyzed the morphology and the walk–trot and trot–gallop transition velocities of nine juvenile horses and compared them with their mothers. We also compared the relative stride length and the duty factor of the ...
-
(SOC CHILENA ANATOMIA, 2009-12-12)We studied the respiratory surface density and the thickness of the air-blood barrier in the Picui Ground Dove (Columbina picui), and compared it with Eared Dove (Zenaida auriculata) and Blacked-winged Ground Dove (Metropelia ...

(Wiley, 2016)Most male spiders are smaller than females; during sexual maturity, males change their behaviour, abandoning their web or nest to seek out receptive females actively, whereas females stalk prey near their web or nest and ...
-
(Mary Ann Liebert, 2020)Here we assess the effect of weather and anthropogenic environmental variables, particularly urbanization, on cystic echinococcosis mortality in Chile from 2001 to 2011 using a nonparametric regression model, multivariate ...
-
(American Arachnological Society, 2018)The locomotor activity of the Chilean recluse spider Loxosceles laeta (Nicolet, 1849), and the spitting spider, Scytodes globula Nicolet, 1849, were studied in the laboratory under controlled conditions (LD 12:12). In ...
