This study correlated lung cancer (LC) mortality with statistical data obtained from government public databases. In order to asses a relationship between LC deaths and radon accumulation in dwellings, indoor radon concentrations were measured with passive detectors randomly distributed in Chihuahua City. Kriging (K) and Inverse-Distance Weighting (IDW) spatial interpolations were carried out. ...

An important problem between specialists is the interpolation of the surfaces determined by classics or modern techniques. Choosing the proper technique is practically a rigorous study regarding all the interpolation methods and using that method according to the needs of the project. The determination of the Digital terrain model, the digital surface model from GNSS, LiDAR or classic measureme...

this study explored the effects of gnrh agonist (gnrha) immunity on expression of fshr mrna in pituitary and fshr protein in uteri, and also confirmed its efficacy on uterine development. 42 prepuberty and non cyclic ewes were assigned to 6 experimental groups (eg) during anestrus season. animals in eg-i, eg-ii and eg-iii were subcutaneously injected with 200, 300 and 400 μg alarelin antigens (...

The dielectric dispersion behaviour of montmorillonite (MMT) clay nanoparticles colloidal suspension in poly(vinyl pyrrolidone)-ethylene glycol (PVP-EG) blends were investigated over the frequency range 20 Hz to 1 MHz at 30°C. The 0, 1, 2, 3, 5 and 10 wt% MMT clay concentration of the weight of total solute (MMT+PVP) were prepared in PVP-EG blends using EG as solvent. The complex relative diele...

This study explored mothers' perceptions of influences on preschoolers' physical activity. Six semistructured focus groups with 23 mothers were conducted across a range of socioeconomic position locations. Mothers identified 4 key areas of influence: child fundamentals (eg, sex, personality), parent power (eg, rules, support), people to share with (eg, peers, adults), and places and things (eg,...
