Molecular characterization of extended-spectrum β-lactamases-producing Escherichia coli isolated from patients with bacteremiaNARA Subscribed
Bacteremia is a major health problem that affects millions of people worldwide. E. coli is one of the main pathogens associated with bacteremia and its resistance to the antimicrobial drugs, including β-lactams, has significantly increased in recent years. In view of the above, our objective was to determine the antimicrobial resistance profile of 60 E. coli isolates obtained from patients with bacteremia, as well as to charac...
The role of global warming trend and tropical interannual variability as drivers of South America’s 2022–2024 climate extremesNARA Subscribed
From 2022 to 2024, South America experienced unprecedented regional climate extremes with severe socioeconomic impacts. These included extreme anomalies in temperature and precipitation, causing extreme drought conditions in southeastern South America and the Altiplano during spring 2022; extreme fire weather in central Chile in summer 2023; flooding in Rio Grande do Sul during autumn 2024; and the multiyear Amazon drought per...
Patterns of resource use in loggerhead turtle (Caretta caretta) from the Southwestern Atlantic OceanNARA Subscribed
The Southwestern Atlantic Ocean (SWAO) is an important feeding and developmental area for loggerhead turtle ( Caretta caretta ). However, long-term patterns of resource use across life stages and sexes remain poorly understood for the species in this region. Here, we used stable isotope analysis (SIA) of sequential layers of carapace scutes to investigate resource use of loggerhead turtles in the SWAO across life stages and se...
Influence of Joint Degradation on the Stand-up Time of Rock Structures Around Underground OpeningsNARA Subscribed
The progressive degradation of joints in rock masses may occur through time-dependent failure of intact rock bridges along discontinuity planes, leading to a reduction in joint cohesive strength and, ultimately, to the onset of instability in underground excavations. This paper investigates the role of rock bridges in controlling the stability of a symmetrical roof block in a circular opening, under the assumption of temporall...
The Level and Nature of Impairment on the Iowa Gambling Task Following Acquired Brain Injury: A Meta-analysisNARA Subscribed
The Iowa Gambling Task (IGT) is a popular measure of risky decision-making, but to date, no formal quantitative reviews have been conducted, focused exclusively on IGT performance amongst individuals with acquired brain injury (ABI). Therefore, this meta-analytic study firstly explored performance differences between individuals with ABI vs controls. Second, we extended this comparison by investigating differences in IGT scori...
