Natural disasters pose a serious threat to human life, and understanding mitigation is key to reducing their negative impact. This research explores the role of folklore as a means of instilling an understanding of disaster mitigation. It examines how values in folklore can shape the attitudes and actions of the community regarding disaster mitigation. In reality, the significant role of folklore in instilling an understanding of disaster mitigat…
Prevalence of kidney disease of unknown etiology in agricultural workers, Guatemala
Objectives. To determine the prevalence of kidney disease of unknown etiology in banana, melon, and tomato workers in north-eastern Guatemala, and to evaluate the usefulness of a cystatin C blood test for early detection of renal disease. Methods. This was a cross-sectional, farm-based study of 462 agricultural workers conducted from June to September 2021. Epidemiological and demographic characteristics of the workers were collected through a se…

Is the circumference at the nutrient foramen of the tibia of value to sex determination on human osteological collections? Testing a new method
This paper tests the validity of the circumference at the nutrient foramen of the tibia for sex determination on two human osteological collections: the Lisbon Collection of Identified Skeletons (n = 160) and the São Martinho medieval archaeological collection from Leiria, Portugal (n = 57). The methodological approach chosen to conduct the test was the sectioning point method. The overall accuracy (males and females combined) in the Lisbon Colle…
SP1-33 Changes in health related quality of life after hip or wrist fractures due to falls in elderly people
Introduction Falls with fractures in elderly people are common situations. Wrist and hip fractures are the most common or severe respectively. The goal of this study was to determine the Health Related Quality of Life (HRQoL) evolution, and which clinical and social factors predict its change after those fractures, by measuring HRQoL by the SF-12 questionnaire. Methods Patients older than 65 years who attended the emergency room (ER) of seven acu…
SP1-35 Predictors of change in joint function after hip or wrist fractures due to falls in elderly people
Introduction Falls with hip or wrist fractures in elderly people are common situations. The goal of this study was to determine the joint function and which clinical and social factors predict change after those fractures, measured by the short-WOMAC or QuickDASH questionnaires. Methods Patients older than 65 years who attended the emergency room (ER) of seven acute hospitals with a hip or wrist fracture due to a fortuity fall were recruited. Pat…
SP1-30 Predictors of recovery of functionality after hip or wrist fractures due to falls in elderly people
Introduction Hip fractures are one of the most severe fractures that elderly patients may suffer while wrist fractures are among the most common. The goal of this study was to determine which clinical and social factors predict a better recovery of functionality, as measured by the Barthel questionnaire, after those fractures. Methods Patients older than 65 years who attended the emergency room (ER) of 7 acute hospitals with a hip or wrist fractu…
Experimental verification of the physics and structure of the bipolar junction transistor
The authors present an electrical characterization of discrete bipolar junction transistor (BJT) devices, with nonuniform doped emitter and base zones. The measurement of the I-V and C-V characteristics of the emitter-base and the collector-base junctions and the common emitter current gain allows to determine relevant parameters of the device. These are the built-in voltage of both junctions, the impurity gradient profiles, the electrical area o…
