The global tree cover has kept reducing in the last two decades, mainly in tropical forests, despite the global efforts to conserve biodiversity and the ecosystem services that provides. Considering South America is the region that had the highest rate of net forest loss (2000-2020), it is crucial to understand the deforestation dynamics of each country and their regions for the evaluation of effective national conservation actions.

Central blood pressure (BP) has been suggested to be a better estimator of hypertension-associated risks. We aimed to evaluate the association of 24-hour central BP, in comparison with 24-hour peripheral BP, with the presence of renal organ damage in hypertensive patients. [...]

Online collaborative tools for medical diagnosis produced from digital pathology images have experimented an increase in demand in recent years. Due to the large sizes of pathology images, rate control (RC) techniques that allow an accurate control of compressed file sizes are critical to meet existing bandwidth restrictions while maximizing retrieved image quality.

Martín, Ferran (Martín Antolín) (Universitat Autònoma de Barcelona. Departament d'Enginyeria Electrònica)
This article presents a novel highly linear reflective-mode displacement sensor based on planar microwave technology. The sensor consists of two parts: 1) the stator, or reader, a one-port transmission line terminated with a matched load and 2) the movable part, or tag, a dielectric slab with an electric LC (ELC) resonator etched on it.

Ibrutinib, a Bruton's tyrosine kinase inhibitor, has become a standard treatment for patients with chronic lymphocytic leukemia/small lymphocytic lymphoma (CLL/SLL). The present pooled safety analysis of 4 randomized controlled studies demonstrated a favorable benefit/risk profile for ibrutinib in patients with CLL/SLL and mantle cell lymphoma. [...]
