The positioning of macrochromosomes of Bothrops jararaca and Bothrops insularis (Viperidae) was studied in undistorted radial metaphases of uncultured cells (spermatogonia and oogonia) not subjected to spindle inhibitors.Colchicinized metaphases from uncultured (spleen and intestine) and cultured tissues (blood) were also analyzed.We report two ant

BACKGROUND: The phenotype of large diameter sensory afferent neurons changes in several models of neuropathic pain.We asked if similar changes also occur in "functional" pain syndromes.METHODOLOGY/PRINCIPAL FINDINGS: Acidic saline (AS, pH 4.0) injections into the masseter muscle were used to induce persistent myalgia.Controls received saline at pH

This article aims to bring quantum computing to robotics.A quantum algorithm is developed to minimize the distance traveled in warehouses and distribution centers where order picking is applied.For this, a proof of concept is proposed through a Raspberry Pi 4, generating a quantum combinatorial optimization algorithm that saves the distance travell

Augmented Reality (AR) in a traffic context has mainly been used in navigation with path augmentation, focused around safely guiding the user with Electric Guitar prior knowledge of the route and the destination.Other works are reported to warn drivers by visualizing other traffic participants or dangers, which are yet currently out of sight.Howeve

The European historic city centres are currently experiencing innovative approaches for rehabilitation of urban spaces afflicted by social and physical decay.The revitalization challenges are a consequence of the integration of contemporary technologies and solutions to achieve new requirements and Pouches of the impacts of socio-economic dynamics.
