Grey water footprint as an indicator for diffuse nitrogen pollution: the case of Navarra, Spain
(Elsevier, 2019) Artículo / ArtikuluaNitrogen is an essential element for plant growth, while its application and associated pollution is a worldwide concern. Generally, diffuse source pollution and its impacts on ecosystem health are difficult to monitor and ... -
Hepatic fat content and bone mineral density in children with overweight/obesity
Objectives: To examine the influence of non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) and hepatic fat content on bone mineral density (BMD), and to investigate whether the relationship between NAFLD and BMD is independent of ... -
Impact of cow's milk intake on exercise performance and recovery of muscle function: a systematic review
Dairy products are thought to improve recovery after both resistance and endurance exercises due to their nutritional proprieties. We systematically reviewed the effects of dairy product intake on exercise performance and ... -
Impact of incorporating greenhouse gas emission intensities in selection indexes for sow productivity traits
Genetic improvement programmes should incorporate emerging challenges about environmental concerns into breeding goals. The large volume of pig meat production implies important greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions despite its ... -
Influence of physical activity on bone mineral content and density in overweight and obese children with low adherence to the Mediterranean dietary pattern
The objective of the present cross-sectional study was to examine the associations of physical activity and the adherence to the Mediterranean dietary pattern (MDP) with bone mineral content (BMC) and density (BMD) in ... -
Influence of surface roughness measurement scale on radar backscattering in different agricultural soils
Soil surface roughness strongly affects the scattering of microwaves on the soil surface and determines the backscattering coefficient (σ 0 ) observed by radar sensors. Previous studies have shown important scale issues ... -
Influence of surface roughness sample size for C-band SAR backscatter applications on agricultural soils
Soil surface roughness determines the backscatter coefficient observed by radar sensors. The objective of this letter was to determine the surface roughness sample size required in synthetic aperture radar applications and ... -
Landscape in motion: revisiting the role of key disturbances in the preservation of mountain ecosystems
La historia del planeta es una historia dinámica, de continuo cambio. Los responsables de la gestión del medio natural se enfrentan actualmente ante un paisaje muy cambiante debido a las condiciones de cambio global (cambio ... -
Mid-infrared spectroscopy (MIR) for simultaneous determination of fat and protein content in meat of several animal species
The aim of this research was to study the application of MIR spectroscopy as an alternative to conventional methods to determine fat and protein content. Samples of the main species used to produce meat products were ... -
Multicomponent physical exercise in older adults after hospitalization: a randomized controlled trial comparing short-vs. long-term group-based interventions
Multicomponent physical exercise is effective in curbing the effect of hospitalization in older adults. However, it is not well established which characteristics of the exercise interventions would optimize intervention ... -
Open innovation in the food and beverage industry
Purpose – The purpose of this paper is to extend the knowledge into the relationship between open innovation (OI) and firm’s innovative performance. Specifically, the authors aim to determine whether the benefits of OI ... -
Physical fitness reference standards for preschool children: the PREFIT project
Objectives: Reference values are necessary for classifying children, for health screening, and for early prevention as many non-communicable diseases aggravate during growth and development. While physical fitness reference ... -
Physicochemical and sensory properties of sous vide meat and meat analog products marinated and cooked at different temperature-time combinations
Ready-to-eat (RTE) products elaborated from beef and meat analog, previously marinated (teriyaki and beer), were subjected to sous vide cooking at different combinations of temperature (70ºC and 80ºC) and time (60, 90 and ... -
The reformulation of a beef patty enriched with n-3 fatty acids and vitamin D3 influences consumers' response under different information scenarios
The objective of this study was to investigate the sensory acceptability and willingness to pay (WTP) for a beef patty elaborated with beef from a local breed that was enriched with nutritional ingredients (vegetable oil ... -
Runoff, nutrients, sediment and salt yields in an irrigated watershed in southern Navarre (Spain)
The environmental impact of irrigated agriculture on water quality was assessed in Landazuria watershed (Navarre, northeast Spain), a 479.5 ha watershed with 53% of irrigated agricultural land. In the framework of a long-term ... -
A single question of parent-reported physical activity levels estimates objectively measured physical fitness and body composition in preschool children: the PREFIT project
Physical inactivity is recognized as a determinant of low physical fitness and body composition in preschool children, which in turn, are important markers of health through the lifespan. Objective methods to assess physical ... -
Soil bacterial functional diversity mirrors the loss of plant diversity by the expansion of a native tall-grass in high mountain grasslands
Background and Aims: In highland ecosystems, global change processes are intense and foster vegetation shifts that may have an impact on soil functioning. Soil bacterial communities may be particularly sensitive to these ... -
Step-based metrics and overall physical activity in children with overweight or obesity: cross-sectional study
Background: Best-practice early interventions to increase physical activity (PA) in children with overweight and obesity should be both feasible and evidence based. Walking is a basic human movement pattern that is practical, ... -
A survey of culturable fungal endophytes from festuca rubra subsp. pruinosa, a grass from Marine Cliffs, reveals a core microbiome
Festuca rubra subsp. pruinosa is a perennial grass that inhabits sea cliffs of the Atlantic coasts of Europe. In this unhospitable environment plants grow in rock crevices and are exposed to abiotic stress factors such as ... -
Textural characteristics of safe dishes for dysphagic patients: a multivariate analysis approach
Twenty-four safe dishes for cerebral palsy dysphagic patients and four commercial dysphagia-oriented food products for dysphagia were studied in order to determine their textural characteristics. Apparent viscosity measured ...
