The 6.26 agro-industrial production of genetically modified organisms uses great amounts of pesticides, close to cities, which generates growing concern due to the numerous evidence of their negative effects on health and the environment.In a context of the lack, or inaccessibility, of official data on crop dynamics and pesticide use, environmental
Delineating the concept of self-management in chronic conditions: a concept analysis
Objectives Self-management is a concept frequently used within healthcare but lacks consensus.It is the aim of this study Electric Kettles to clarify the concept.Design Concept analysis according to Walker and Avant, comprises eight steps: select concept, determine purpose, identify uses, determine defining attributes, identify model case, identify
Structural Connectivity of the Anterior Cingulate Cortex, Claustrum, and the Anterior Insula of the Mouse
The Puppies claustrum is a narrow subcortical brain structure that resides between the striatum and insular cortex.The function of the claustrum is not fully described, and while our previous work supports a role for the claustrum in top-down cognitive control of action, other evidence suggests the claustrum may be involved in detecting salient cha
Transient Response of a Fluid-Filled, Thick-Walled Spherical Shell Embedded in an Elastic Medium
The paper addresses the problem of transient elastodynamics analysis of a thick-walled, fluid-filled spherical shell embedded in an elastic medium with an analytical approach.This configuration is investigated at first step for a full-space case.Different constitutive relations for the elastic medium, shell material and filling Leg Pads fluid can b
Understanding the Normalization of Plantation Agriculture: The Case of Hass Avocado in Colombia
Plantations are not inherently normal, yet they have been normalized within traditional agricultural landscapes.This is the premise through which we explore why plantations thrive despite numerous social and ecological drawbacks.Accordingly, the aim of this paper is to present a framework to elucidate why Hass avocado plantations succeed, using Sal
