Sensors, Vol. 24, Pages 2637: Learning Ground Displacement Signals Directly from InSAR-Wrapped Interferograms
irichai
Monitoring ground displacements identifies potential geohazard risks early before they cause critical damage. Interferometric synthetic aperture radar (InSAR) is one of the techniques that can monitor these displacements with sub-millimeter accuracy. However, using the InSAR technique is challenging due to the need for high expertise, large data volumes, and other complexities. Accordingly, the development of an automated system to indicate ground displacements directly from the wrapped interferograms and coherence maps could be highly advantageous. Here, we compare different machine learning algorithms to eval...

< em > Streptomyces profundus < /em > sp. nov., a novel marine actinobacterium isolated from deep-sea sediment of Madeira Archipelago, Portugal
Int J Syst Evol Microbiol. 2024 Apr;74(4). doi: 10.1099/ijsem.0.006341.ABSTRACTA novel strain, MA3_2.13T, was isolated from deep-sea sediment of Madeira Archipelago, Portugal, and characterized using a polyphasic approach. This strain produced dark brown soluble pigments, bronwish black substrate mycelia and an aerial mycelium with yellowish white spores, when grown on GYM 50SW agar. The main respiratory quinones were MK-10(H4), MK-10(H6) and MK-10(H8). Diphosphatidylglycerol, phosphatidylethanolamine, three unidentified phospholipids and two glycophospholipids were identified as the main phospholipids. The major cellular ...

Capsule endoscopy: beyond the small bowel
Rev Esp Enferm Dig. 2024 Apr 18. doi: 10.17235/reed.2024.10449/2024. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTCapsule endoscopy (CE) is considered the first-line for the investigation of OGIB after conventional non-diagnostic endoscopic examinations. A detection rate of lesions outside the small bowel segment has been reported to range from 3.5% to >30%. Our primary objective was to analyze the role of CE in identifying lesions outside the small bowel segment that were not identified on conventional endoscopy in patients suspected of OGIB. In our study, CE appears to be effective and safe in diagnosing OGIB, also proving to be a t...

The Portuguese mertolenga cattle breed: a review
AbstractThis review summarizes the state of the art regarding the phylogenetic origins, recent history and present-day main traits and uses of theMertolenga cattle breed from Southern Portugal, particularly those related to production performances and product quality. Named after the historical city of M értola, in southern Portugal, theMertolenga is one of the fifteen autochthonous bovine breeds of Portugal. It is a cattle breed thoroughly adapted to the poor Mediterranean pastures of the southern regions of the Iberian Peninsula. It is used predominantly in an extensive to semi-intensive sylvopastoral production system ...

Strategic Communication for Local Public Health Services in Portugal: A Delphi Study
CONCLUSION: Strategic planning based on the proposed conceptual model involving different stakeholders, has potential to improve the effectiveness of internal and external communication and facilitate the implementation of public health programs and projects. The proposed model needs to be validated in Local Public Health Units, considering the potential human, material, and financial constraints.PMID:38631061 | DOI:10.20344/amp.19997 (Source: Acta Medica Portuguesa)
