Global change in the trophic functioning of marine food webs. by Aurore Maureaud, Didier Gascuel, Mathieu Colléter, Maria L D Palomares, Hubert Du Pontavice, Daniel Pauly, William W L Cheung

“…The development of fisheries in the oceans, and other human drivers such as climate warming, have led to changes in species abundance, assemblages, trophic interactions, and ultimately in the functioning of marine food webs. Here, using a trophodynamic approach and global databases of catches and life history traits of marine species, we tested the hypothesis that anthropogenic ecological impacts may have led to changes in the global parameters defining the transfers of biomass within the food web. …”

Integration of Routine Parameters of Glycemic Variability in a Simple Screening Method for Partial Remission in Children with Type 1 Diabetes by Nina Nielens, Olivier Pollé, Annie Robert, Philippe A. Lysy

“…With a threshold of 4.5, this alternative formula predicted partial remission with a sensitivity and a specificity of 72.3% and 92%, respectively, and yielded strong correlation with IDAA1C levels and BETA-2 score, which is a correlate of β-cell function after islet transplantation. We propose GTAA1C, based on routine and objective markers of glycemic variability, as a valid alternative for definition of partial remission in type 1 diabetes.…”

Internal Benchmarking of Thermal Power Plants оf Electric Power Systems by E. M. Farhadzadeh, A. Z. Muradaliyev, Y. Z. Farzaliyev, U. K. Ashurova

“…A necessary condition for the feasibility of using these or those integral indicators is their functional and statistical independence. The results of the studies performed using the simulation method made it possible to establish that the smallest correlation occurs between the integral indicator calculated as the arithmetic mean of random variables and the integral indicator calculated as the coefficient of variation of the same random variables. …”
