FUTURE EXPANSION OF SMALL HIVE BEETLES, AETHINA TUMIDA, TOWARDS NORTH AFRICA AND SOUTH EUROPE BASED ON TEMPERATURE FACTORS USING MAXIMUM ENTROPY ALGORITHM

Future expansion of small hive beetles, Aethina tumida, towards North Africa and South Europe based on temperature factors using maximum entropy algorithm

Objectives: The small hive beetles (SHBs) cause dangerous damages to bee colonies in several countries.Some African LED Wire Set countries represent the native land to these beetles.The SHBs are not well established in North Africa and South Europe (the closest land to the native countries).Therefore, this study aimed to model the current and futur

Digit ratios and their asymmetries as risk factors of developmental instability and hospitalization for COVID-19

Abstract COVID-19 presents with mild symptoms in the majority of patients but in a minority it progresses to acute illness and hospitalization.Here we consider whether markers for prenatal sex hormones and postnatal stressors on developmental instability, i.e.digit ratios and their directional and unsigned asymmetries, are predictive of hospitaliza

Efficacy of Cervical Spine Muscle Strength Training in the Prevention of Cervical Spine Injuries in Hockey Players: A Critically Appraised Topic

From 1948 through 2011, 355 documented cases of spinal cord injuries to were reported in ice hockey players, of which 78.9% were indicative of damage to the cervical L-Methylfolate spine.Tyrakowski and colleagues report a high incidence of cervical spine injuries occur during contact sports, such as football and hockey.6 In contrast, additional evi

Radiographic and histologic effects of bone morphogenetic protein-2/hydroxyapatite within bioabsorbable magnesium screws in a rabbit model

Abstract Background Hydrogen gas formed by magnesium (Mg) screw corrosion can accumulate around the implant and create bone cysts, long-term osteolysis lesions, and bone healing delay.Thus, several authors currently do not recommend Mg implants for clinical use.In contrast, bone morphogenetic proteins (BMP)-2 have a very strong osteoinductive activ
