An econometric analysis is conducted to quantify the impact of different variables on the service quality of the Santiago, Chile bus system. The indicators tested as measures of service quality are the average bus speed, the bus trip time coefficient of variation and the bus headway coefficient o...

Rationale: There is wide variability in mechanical ventilation settings during ECMO in ARDS patients. Although lung rest is recommended to prevent further injury, there is no evidence to support it. Objectives: To determine whether near-apneic ventilation decreases lung injury in a pig model of A...

MicroRNAs (miRNAs) and long noncoding RNAs (lncRNAs) are two relevant non-coding RNAs (ncRNAs) class. Oncorhynchus kisutch (coho salmon) is an important aquaculture pacific salmon species without report of miRNAs and a very limited register of lncRNAs. To gain knowledge about the interaction and ...

Recent clinical trials in newborns have successfully used surfactant as a drug carrier for an active compound, to minimize systemic exposure. To investigate the translational potential of surfactant-compound mixtures and other local therapeutics, a relevant animal model is required in which intra...
