Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractComparison of Nonlinear Models for Dry Matter Yield of Brachiaria Hybrid cv Cayman in Drought Season by BootstrappingDanny Villegas Rivas, Nora Valbuena Torres, Manuel Milla Pino et al.The dynamics of biomass accumulation at different seasons of the year is of vital importance in the production of a forage species. In this study nonlinear models (logistic and gompertz) to describe growth dynamics of plants based on dry matter yield of Brachiaria hybrid Cayman at different interval between cuts in drought season were used. Results for logistic and gompertz … …OnLine Journal of Biological Sciences, Vol. 21, Issue 1 · 15 Mar 2021 · 6,640 accessesView PDFCite

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractGeneral Approach for Formulating a Digital Transformation StrategyZineb Korachi, Bouchaib BounabatTo take advantage of information technologies, organizations need to define a clear strategy. Numerous works have provided definitions and phases of digital strategies. Some of these strategies are context-specific, while others deal with the common elements of digital strategies regardless of the digital transformation context. However, these works do not address a holistic approach. This raises ambiguity regarding digital strategy … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 16, Issue 4 · 27 Apr 2020 · 10,874 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractImpact of Multiplex PCR Panel on Reducing Broad-Spectrum Antibiotic Use in Ventilator-Associated PneumoniaMaría Inés Staneloni, Emilio F. Huaier Arriazu et al.The extended use of broad-spectrum antimicrobials contribute to the growing threat of antimicrobial resistance. This study evaluated the impact of a multimodal strategy aiming at reducing the duration of broad-spectrum antimicrobial therapy in Ventilator-Associated Pneumonia (VAP). Conducted in a single Intensive Care Unit (ICU), this quasi-experimental, retrospective study compares a pre-intervention period (08/01/2018-07/01/2019) with an intervention period (08/01/2022-07/01/2023). Adult patients … …American Journal of Infectious Diseases, Vol. 21, Issue 1 · 8 Jul 2025 · 6,582 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractAbsolute Measures of Interindividual Variation: A Simulation StudyJosé Moral-de la RubiaFour absolute measures and one relative measure of interindividual variability have been defined, together with their point and interval estimation (bootstrap and asymptotic), and an R script has been developed for their computation. However, further simulation studies are required to strengthen their methodological evaluation. This study focused on the three absolute measures with potentially better regularity conditions, Mean Interindividual Differences … …Journal of Mathematics and Statistics, Vol. 22, Issue 1 · 4 Aug 2026 · 957 accessesView PDFCite
