Abstract The aim of this research was to determine the impact of the architecture of digital technologies in university teacher training as a catalyst for change and educational innovation. Methodologically, it is framed in a quantitative approach with a pre-experimental design and an explanatory level, with a sample of 269 teachers out of a total…

Vanessa Forbes-Pateman does not need a meteorologist or computer model to tell her that anthropogenic climate change already is having a catastrophic impact on the planet.  The University of Miami doctoral student has experienced it firsthand in the form of more powerful tropical cyclones that have battered her homeland. Flood waters spawned by Hurricane Matthew…

Abstract Accurate water pollution prediction is an important basis for water environment prevention and control. The uncertainty of input variables and the nonstationary and nonlinear characteristics of water pollution series hinder the accuracy and reliability of water pollution prediction. This study proposed a novel water pollution prediction model (RF-CEEMD-LSTM) to improve the performance of water…

Abstract The optimal range of gestational weight gain (GWG) was recently raised in Japan. This may help reduce small-for-gestational-age (SGA) infants, but may also increase large-for-gestational-age (LGA) infants. This study performed hypothetical experiments to determine effective GWG advice based on quantile regression analysis. In a total of 354,401 singleton pregnancies registered in the perinatal database…

Abstract A simple method for measuring bioelectric signals of fish in seawater is expected for managing the health of farmed fish and clarifying the ecophysiology of natural fish. We previously proposed a simple and unique method for measuring bioelectric signals of fish by inserting only one special internal electrode (which can be isolated from seawater)…

Nearly 30 years ago — more than a decade after HIV/AIDS was first identified — a group of scientists in the United States and France reported impressive results from a clinical trial. Pregnant women living with HIV could reduce the risk of transmitting the virus to their newborn child by around 67% if they took…
