Short-term individual nutritional care as part of routine clinical setting improves outcome and quality of life in malnourished medical patients
(2012-11-12)
Nutritional strategies to treat malnutrition are rare and lack practicability in the hospital setting. This study aims at providing nutritional risk patients with individual nutrition care in order to raise energy and ...
Epistatic effects on carcass composition and meat quality in pigs
(2012-08-10)
The analysis of epistasis is not yet a routine, but it has been shown by few studies in livestock animals that interaction effects contribute with considerable proportions to the phenotypic variance. Therefore the objective ...
Wet Path Delay Corrections from Line-of-Sight Observations of Effelsberg’s Water Vapour Radiometer for Geodetic VLBI Sessions
(2012-08-01)
Water vapour induced excess path lengths in electromagnetic waves have been one of the most unmanageable errors in space geodesy, such as GPS and VLBI. The difficulty mainly comes from the highly variable distribution of ...
Effect of niacin on the efficiency of nitrogen utilisation in the rumen of dairy cows
(2012-08-14)
The aim of the present study was to investigate the effect of an oral niacin supplementation of 6 g per day to a diet deficient in ruminally degradable protein (RDP) on rumen metabolism, microbial protein synthesis, nitrogen ...
Spatio-temporal dynamics of bush-fire nutrient losses and atmospheric depositional gains across the northern savanna region of Ghana
(2012-10-12)
This study estimates the nutrient balance between annual fire-induced nutrient transfers and bulk (wet plus dry) atmospheric nutrient deposition. In the subsistence-based and fertilizer-limited agriculture of northern Ghana ...
Influence of compost and humic substances on soil and fruit quality in Table Grape under intensive management in Chile
(2012-09-03)
The objective of this study was to evaluate the effects of the application of organic amendments (compost and humic extracts) on some soil quality indicators, agronomic variables, and the exportable yield in table grape ......

Effectiveness of soil and water conservation measures for land restoration in the Wello area, northern Ethiopian highlands
(2012-11-12)
Soil-erosion-induced land degradation is a great challenge in the Ethiopian highlands. Consequently, the government has invested in soil and water conservation (SWC) measures, mainly farmland terracing and exclosure of ......

Sequential Learning Using Incremental Import Vector Machines for Semantic Segmentation
(2012-10-24)
We propose an innovative machine learning algorithm called incremental import vector machines that is used for classification purposes. The classifier is specifically designed for the task of sequential learning, in which ...
Coupled hydrogeophysical inversion for soil hydraulic property estimation from time-lapse geophysical data
(2012-12-21)
Good knowledge of the hydraulic properties of the vadose zone is important for understanding water flow and solute transport processes therein. This can help to promote sustainable use and mitigate anthropogenic threats ......
The YES assay as a tool to analyse endocrine disruptors in different matrices in Vietnam
(2012-11-16)
Endocrine disrupting compounds (EDCs) or endocrine disruptors have been a global concern for many years due to their negative impact on wildlife and human health. The main sources of EDCs in the environment are humans and ...
