The trailmaking test (TMT) has an educational bias that makes it inapplicable to people with low levels of education due to its dependence on the alphabet. The TMT standardization is the only one available in Chile, and there is a need for alternative ways of using the TMT that do not depend on the level of education for its applicability. To determine the normative scores of the TMT - black & white (TMT B&W), considering sociodemographic factors in adult and elderly Chilean population.

Introduction: Allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (allo-HSCT) is performed worldwide to treat blood cancer and other life-threatening blood disorders. As successful transplantation requires an HLA-compatible donor, unrelated donor centers and registries have been established worldwide to identify donors for patients without a family match.

Article Synopsis
  • Environmental magnetism techniques can effectively map particulate pollutants on various accumulative surfaces, such as urban plant leaves and passive filters.
  • The study uses a k-nearest neighbors algorithm (kNN) to classify pollution sources, primarily focusing on traffic-related pollutants like tire and brake pad residue.
  • Results show that the model accurately identifies different traffic-related pollution sources and highlights the potential for magnetic mapping to enhance existing air quality measurement methods and improve pollutant dispersion models.
