(Elsevier Espana S.L., 2019)Alcohol-related liver disease (ALD) is a major cause of advanced chronic liver disease in Latin-America, although data on prevalence is limited. Public health policies aimed at reducing the alarming prevalence of alcohol ...
-
(Nature Publishing Group, 2019)Species delimitation in minute freshwater snails is often difficult to perform using solely shell morphology. The problem intensifies when invasive species spread within the distribution range of morphologically similar ...

(Oxford University Press, 2019)We report the discovery of NGTS-4b, a sub-Neptune-sized planet transiting a 13th magnitude K-dwarf in a 1.34 d orbit. NGTS-4b has a mass M = 20.6 ± 3.0M⊕ and radius R = 3.18 ± 0.26 R⊕, which places it well within the ...
-
(American Institute of Physics Inc., 2019)It has become recently clear that chemical bonding under pressure is still lacking guiding principles for understanding the way electrons reorganize when their volume is constrained. As an example, it has recently been ...
-
(E. Schweizerbart'sche Verlagsbuchhandlung, 2019)Iron-rich sediments commonly cover riverbeds affected by acid mine drainage (AMD). Initial precipitates are often dominated by schwertmannite, which has an exceptionally high capacity to sequester As and other toxic elements. ...
-
(Sociedad de Anestesiologia de Chile, 2019)The ERAS protocols (Enhanced Recovery After Surgery or in Spanish, Recuperación Acelerada Después de Cirugía) are a set of multimodal perioperative strategies that aim to reduce the time of hospitalization, recovery, ...
-
(Springer New York LLC, 2019)Information Systems Frontiers is a leading international journal that publishes research at the interface between information systems and information technology. The journal was launched in 1999. In 2019, the journal ...
-
(Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers Inc., 2019)The lack of available spectrum for wireless communications is a threat to the successful deployment of applications designed for intelligent transportation systems (ITSs). The ITS services should be available to a high ...
-
(Elsevier Ltd, 2019)The Pacific Ocean that flanks the hyperarid Atacama Desert of Northern Chile is one of the richest biomass producers around the world. Thus, it is considered a key factor for the subsistence of prehistoric societies ...

Clustering based physical-layer authentication in edge computing systems with asymmetric resources (MDPI AG, 2019)In this paper, we propose a clustering based physical-layer authentication scheme (CPAS) to overcome the drawback of traditional cipher-based authentication schemes that suffer from heavy costs and are limited by ...
-
(Elsevier Espana S.L.U, 2019)Feedback is fundamental in methodologies such as Team-Based Learning (TBL) because it deepens learning by identifying deficiencies of the process. In the setting of curricular innovation in the Faculty of Medicine, University ...

-
(MDPI AG, 2019)Extending the internet of things (IoT) networks to remote areas under extreme conditions or for serving sometimes unpredictable mobile applications has increased the need for satellite technology to provide effective ...
-
(American Physical Society, 2019)We show that the dynamics of a driven quantum system weakly coupled to a finite reservoir can be approximated by a sequence of Landau-Zener transitions if the level spacing of the reservoir is large enough. This approximation ...
-
(Frontiers Media S.A., 2019)Recent evidence shows that most Patagonian glaciers are receding rapidly. Due to the lack of in situ long-term meteorological observations, the understanding of how glaciers are responding to changes in climate over this ...
