    Should we screen for atrial fibrillation?

    Current evidence is sufficient to justify a national screening programme, argues Mark Lown, but Patrick Moran thinks there are too many unanswered questions and evidence from randomised trials is needed to avoid overdiagnosis

    A Bayesian geostatistical Moran Curve model for estimating net changes of tsetse populations in Zambia

    No full text
    For the first time a Bayesian geostatistical version of the Moran Curve, a logarithmic form of the Ricker stock recruitment curve, is proposed that is able to give an estimate of net change in population demographic rates considering components such as fertility and density dependent and density independent mortalities. The method is applied to spatio-temporally referenced count data of tsetse flies obtained from fly-rounds. The model is a linear regression with three components: population rate of change estimated from the Moran curve, an explicit spatio-temporal covariance, and the observation error optimised within a Bayesian framework. The model was applied to the three main climate seasons of Zambia (rainy – January to April, cold-dry – May to August, and hot-dry – September to December) taking into account land surface temperature and (seasonally changing) cattle distribution. The model shows a maximum positive net change during the hot-dry season and a minimum between the rainy and cold-dry seasons. Density independent losses are correlated positively with day-time land surface temperature and negatively with night-time land surface temperature and cattle distribution. The inclusion of density dependent mortality increases considerably the goodness of fit of the model. Cross validation with an independent dataset taken from the same area resulted in a very accurate estimate of tsetse catches. In general, the overall framework provides an important tool for vector control and eradication by identifying vector population concentrations and local vector demographic rates. It can also be applied to the case of sustainable harvesting of natural population

    A heterogeneidade das mudanças de uso e cobertura das terras na Amazônia: em busca de um mapa da estrada.

    As mudanças de uso e cobertura das terras, a consequente fragmentação de paisagens naturais e seus potenciais impactos nas mudanças globais, ciclos biogeoquímicos, dinâmicas regionais e biodiversidade têm se tornado temas centrais em Ciências da Terra (Vitousek et al., 1997; National Research Council, 1998; Lambin et al., 1999; Moran et al., 2001), modernos métodos para o estudo de relações espaciais (Turner et al. 1995; Forman, 1997) e diversas aplicações no planejamento e monitoramento de territórios têm contribuído para uma leitura diferenciada sobre a dominação humana em espaços terrestres (GOIodland et al., 1993; Daily et al., 2000). As ciências sociais acompanham essas tendências e catalisam a atividade científica para abordagens mais integradoras (Liverman et al., 1998; Lubchenco, 1998; Berkes & Folke, 2000; Fox et al., 2002). Por sua abrangência geográfica e relevância socioambiental, o processo mais importante de fragmentação da paisagem em nível regional, e com possíveis consequências globais, e o desmatamento de florestas tropicais, em particular da Amazônia (Lambin, 1997; Williams, 2003)..
