BACKGROUND Individuals with diabetes have been found previously to be at increased risk of non-traumatic fracture. However, it is unclear if these individuals are being identified and treated for osteoporosis. METHODS 7753 Canadians over 50 years of age were followed prospectively for 10 years. 606/7753 (7.8%) of had diabetes; 98 were insulin-dependent and 508 were not. Using a cox proportion...

Abstract Heavy snow disruptions are common and costly occurrences in the UK, including Scotland. Yet, heavy remains an underresearched aspect of disaster risks This study critically examined 2018 event Scotland referred to as “Beast from East” (BfE) order explore different sources information used by public preparation for response emergencies. Our also effectiveness BfE risk communication betw...

¿Qué hay detrás del pensamiento artístico? La siguiente propuesta plantea una aproximación al mundo de la fotografía en base a experiencia serie encuentros con artistas durante estancia Universidad California, Berkeley. No nada mejor para responder preguntas complejas que abordarlas desde un punto vista multifocal, y colaboración varios fotógrafos estadounidenses nos ayuda establecer formas mir...

Trends in major ionic components of bulk precipitation were analysed for two sites, Faskally and Loch Ard forest in Scotland, for the period 1972-2000. The pattern of change was not linear. Large reductions in sulphur deposition occurred in the early 1980s and, to a lesser extent, during 1995-2000, with a period of relative stability between 1988-95. pH increased significantly at both sites but...

We study generation of magnetic fields involving large spatial scales by time-and space-periodic small-scale parity-invariant flows. The anisotropic magnetic eddy diffusivity tensor is calculated by the standard procedure involving expansion of magnetic modes and their growth rates in power series in the scale ratio. Our simulations, conducted for flows with random harmonic composition and expo...

The Annals has published an increasingly broad range of computer history scholarship over the past decade, but there are still many topics that remain unexplored, and some scholars conducting meaningful research in the field have yet to publish in this journal. These were the guiding thoughts as we had a phone conversation about a possible workshop to focus on new topics and new authors (to the...

Objectives of this study were to evaluate effects of seven sire breed groups and three levels of daily ME intake (DMEI = 132 or 189 kcal ME/kg BW(0.75) or ad libitum), beginning 5 mo prepartum, on BCS, length of postpartum anestrus, and circulating concentrations of IGF-1 and GH in F1 cows (six to eight cows per sire breed in each DMEI group) out of Angus or Hereford dams. At the initiation of ...
