Online analysis of Amazon's soils through reflectance spectroscopy and cloud computing can support policies and the sustainable development.

Analyzing soil in large and remote areas such as the Amazon River Basin (ARB) is unviable when it is entirely performed by wet labs using traditional methods due to the scarcity of labs and the significant workforce requirements, increasing costs, time, and waste. Remote sensing, combined with cloud computing, enhances soil analysis by modeling soil from spectral data and overcoming the limitations of traditional methods. We verified the potential of soil spectroscopy in conjunction with cloud-based computing to predict soil organic carbon (SOC) and particle size (sand, silt, and clay) content from the Amazon region.

Geotechnologies on the phosphorus stocks determination in tropical soils: General impacts on society.

Phosphorus (P) is a critical nutrient for primary production in terrestrial and aquatic ecosystems. As P mineral reserves are finite and non-renewable, there is an increasing discussion on its sustainable utilization to safeguard food security for future generations. Understanding the spatial distribution of soil P is central in advancing effective phosphorus management and fostering sustainable agricultural practices.

Postpartum hemorrhage in electronic health records: risk factors at admission and in-hospital occurrence.

Objective: Postpartum hemorrhage (PPH) is the leading cause of maternal death globally. Therefore, prevention strategies have been created. The study aimed to evaluate the occurrence of PPH and its risk factors after implementing a risk stratification at admission in a teaching hospital.

Sonographic features of abdominal organs in healthy captive Neotropical otters (Lontra longicaudis).

This study aimed to assess the sonographic features of abdominal organs in healthy captive Neotropical otters (Lontra longicaudis). The sonograph showed that the urinary bladder was located in the caudal abdomen and its content was uniformly anechoic. The bladder wall had three layers: outer hyperechoic serosa, hypoechoic muscular layer and hyperechoic mucosa.
