Abstract Research has shown that multidimensional approaches to Chagas disease (CD), integrating its biomedical and psycho-socio-cultural components, are successful in enhancing early access to diagnosis, treatment and sustainable follow-up.For the first time, a consulate was selected for a community-based CD detection campaign.Two different strate
A disk was divided into 16 stationary sectors of different grey levels that stepped around clockwise.When thin stationary spokes of constant mid-grey separated the sectors, the spokes showed robust and striking Hoses counterclockwise apparent motion, and when stopped, they gave a brisk clockwise motion aftereffect.The spokes had to match the grey o
Microfibers and microplastics originating from wastewater treatment plant (WWTP) effluents are significant pollutants in freshwater sources and marine environments.This research investigated the biodegradation of cotton microfibers generated from bleached cotton jersey knit fabric Moisturizers and commercially available flushable wipes, polypropyle
Accurate checkerboard detection is of vital importance for computer vision applications, and a variety of checkerboard detectors have been developed in the past decades.While some detectors are able to handle partially occluded checkerboards, they fail when a large occlusion completely divides the checkerboard.We propose a new checkerboard detectio
