1. Leprosy in Brazil in the 21st century: analysis of epidemiological and operational indicators using inflection point regression,
Abstract The objective of this study was to analyze the trend of epidemiological and operational indicators of leprosy in Brazil, from 2001 to 2017. This was a time series study involving nine indicators. The inflection point regression model was used. Decreasing trends were observed for the following: general detection (−4.8%), children under 15 (−3.7%)

3. Extracción optimizada y purificación parcial de invertasa aislada de S. Cerevisiae en puré de durazno
Abstract The extraction was performed using an autolysis process where enzymes degrade cell structures and release the cytoplasmic contents to the extracellular medium. The autolysis process was carried out in shake flasks with different agitation speeds (50 - 350 rpm) and the concentration of sodium bicarbonate (50 -350 mM NaHCO3) at 40 ° C for 24 hours, u

4. Evaluation of short-chain-length polyhydroxyalkanoate accumulation in Bacillus aryabhattai
Abstract This study was focused on the polyhydroxybutyrate (PHB) accumulation property of Bacillus aryabhattai isolated from environment. Twenty-four polyhydroxyalkanoate (PHA) producers were screened out from sixty-two environmental bacterial isolates based on Sudan Black B colony staining. Based on their PHA accumulation property, six promising isolates we

5. Efficient medical image access in diagnostic environments with limited resources
Abstract Introduction A medical application running outside the workstation environment has to deal with several constraints, such as reduced available memory and low network bandwidth. The aim of this paper is to present an approach to optimize the data flow for fast image transfer and visualization on mobile devices and remote stationary devices. Methods

6. Pulmonary crackle characterization: approaches in the use of discrete wavelet transform regarding border effect, mother-wavelet selection, and subband reduction
Introduction Crackles are discontinuous, non-stationary respiratory sounds and can be characterized by their duration and frequency. In the literature, many techniques of filtering, feature extraction, and classification were presented. Although the discrete wavelet transform (DWT) is a well-known tool in this area, issues like signal border extension, moth

7. OPTIMIZATION WITH LINEAR COMPLEMENTARITY CONSTRAINTS
A Mathematical Program with Linear Complementarity Constraints (MPLCC) is an optimization problem where a continuously differentiable function is minimized on a set defined by linear constraints and complementarity conditions on pairs of complementary variables. This problem finds many applications in several areas of science, engineering and economics and i

8. Regulation of gene expression: Cryptic β-glucoside (bgl) operon of Escherichia coli as a paradigm
Bacteria have evolved various mechanisms to extract utilizable substrates from available resources and consequently acquire fitness advantage over competitors. One of the strategies is the exploitation of cryptic cellular functions encoded by genetic systems that are silent under laboratory conditions, such as the bgl (β-glucoside) operon of E. coli. The bg

9. THE DEMAND FOR RESIDENTIAL ELECTRICITY IN BRAZIL: 2011-2020 / A DEMANDA POR ENERGIA ELÉTRICA RESIDENCIAL NO BRASIL: 2011-2020
This work aims to quantify the relations between the electricity demand and some of its determinants in the Residential sector of Brazil. To begin with a short discussion is carried out on the Residential energy consumption in the country throughout the last four decades so as to get to know the residential consumption within a wider context. After, we adopt

10. Transient wave propagation phenomena at visco-elastic half-spaces under distributed surface loadings
This article analyzes the transient wave propagation phenomena that take place at 2D viscoelastic half-spaces subjected to spatially distributed surface loadings and to distinct temporal excitations. It starts with a fairly detailed review of the existing strategies to describe transient analysis for elastic and viscoelastic continua by means of the Boundary

11. Tópicos em seleção de modelos markovianos / Topics in selection of Markov models
This work related two statistical problems involving the selection of a Markovian model of finite order. Firstly, we propose a procedure to choose a context tree from independent samples, with more than half of them being realizations of the same finite memory Markovian processes with finite alphabet with law P. Our model selection strategy is based on estim

12. Vacuum energies and multipole interactions
In this paper, we present a quantum-field-theoretical description of the interaction between stationary and localized external sources linearly coupled to bosonic fields (specifically, we study models with a scalar and the Maxwell field). We consider external sources that simulate not only point charges but also higher-multipole distributions along D-dimensi
