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 and climate determine antioxidant capacity of walnuts
The aim of this work was to study the influence of soil and climate factors in the antioxidant capacity of 10 different varieties of nuts, obtained from two experimental cultivars with different weather and soil conditions. ... -
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 ... -
Soil C/N ratios cause opposing effects in forests compared to grasslands on decomposition rates and stabilization factors in southern European ecosystems
Soils store an important amount of carbon (C), mostly in the form of organic matter in different decomposing stages. Hence, understanding the factors that rule the rates at which decomposed organic matter is incorporated ... -
Soil moisture modulates biological nitrification inhibitors release in sorghum plants
Background and aims: Sorghum (Sorghum bicolor) is able to exude allelochemicals with biological nitrifcation inhibition (BNI) capacity. Therefore, sorghum might be an option as cover crop since its BNI ability may reduce ... -
Soil organic carbon monitoring to assess agricultural climate change adaptation practices in Navarre, Spain
Climate change adaptation strategies are needed for agriculture, one of the most vulnerable human activities. In Navarre, North of Spain, ongoing adaptive management practices were identified and promoted in the framework ... -
Soil quality assessment after 25 years of sewage sludge vs. mineral fertilization in a calcareous soil
The aim of this work was to identify the most sensitive soil quality indicators and assess soil quality after long-term application of sewage sludge (SS) and conventional mineral fertilization for rainfed cereal production ... -
Soil water retention and soil compaction assessment in a regional-scale strategy to improve climate change adaptation of agriculture in Navarre, Spain
The aim of this study was to evaluate the effectiveness of the different agricultural management adaptive strategies considered in the framework of a regional climate change adaptation roadmap in Navarre (Spain), from ... -
Stabilization and valorization of tomato byproduct: a case study for the bakery industry
Worldwide, tomato production is estimated at 180 million tons per year, which generates a byproduct with highly variable characteristics and volumes. According to the principles of the circular economy, a semi-industrial ... -
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, ... -
Strategies to enhance propolis ethanolic extract's flavor for its use as a natural preservative in beef
Propolis is rich in bioactive compounds like phenols and flavonoids, which make ft a promising alternative as a natural preservative. However, the use of propolis in the food industry is limited due to its strong, ... -
Strategies to reduce purge losses in meat products stuffed in plastic casings
Two different meat emulsions were prepared with different physical stability: R1 with 6.28 ± 1.13% total expressible fluid and R2 with 17.7 ± 1.48%. The emulsions were placed in plastic casings at three different surface ... -
Study of Pansalt® or Laminaria ochroleuca seaweed powder as potential NaCl replacers in dry-cured foal "cecina"
(Elsevier, 2023) Artículo / ArtikuluaThis study aimed to evaluate the effect of the total or partial replacement of NaCl by a commercial low-salt mixture Pansalt® (T1) or Kombu (L. ochroleuca) seaweed powder (T2), respectively, on the quality properties of ... -
Study protocol of a population-based cohort investigating physical activity, sedentarism, lifestyles and obesity in Spanish youth: the PASOS study
Introduction Physical activity (PA) is essential to healthy mental and physical development in early life. However, the prevalence of physical inactivity, which is considered a key modifiable driver of childhood obesity, ... -
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 ... -
Survival of frail elderly with delirium
This study aims to determine when frailty increases the risks of delirium mortality. Hospital patients falling into the elderly frail or pre-frail category were recruited, some without delirium, some with delirium at ... -
A systematized review on the applications of hyperspectral imaging for quality control of potatoes
The application of hyperspectral imaging (HSI) has gained signifcant importance in the past decade, particulary in the context of food analysis, including potatoes. However, the current literature lacks a comprehensive ... -
Tenderness of PGI "Ternera de Navarra" beef samples determined by FTIR-MIR spectroscopy
Understanding meat quality attribute changes during ageing by using non-destructive techniques is an emergent pursuit in the agroindustry research field. Using beef certified samples from the protected geographical indication ... -
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 ... -
Tracking water for human activities: from the ivory tower to the ground
Water policy requires well established metrics for success. Precise metrics allow for quantifying progress and adjusting processes to produce the desired outcomes. We analyze the different schools of thought, nomenclatures ...
