This work presents the mathematical definition and programming considerations of an efficient geometric algorithm used to add roofs to polyhedral 3D building models obtained from OpenStreetMap. The algorithm covers numerous roof shapes, including some well-defined shapes that lack an explicit reconstruction theory. These shapes include gabled, hipped, pyramidal, skillion, half-hipped, gambrel, and mansard.

The high-resolution liquid chromatography in conjunction with electrospray ionization quadrupole time-of-flight mass spectrometry (UHPLC-ESI-QTOF-MS) analysis showed forty compounds in MGEOe and twenty-nine in DOe, including flavones, C-glycosyl flavones, isoflavones, fatty acids, terpenes, phenolic acids, and sterols. The antioxidant properties were evaluated by DPPH, TEAC, FRAP, and ILP assays.

More than 85% of Peruvian malaria cases are in the Amazonian region of Loreto. Internal mobility primarily related to occupation is thought to be primarily responsible for maintaining endemicity and introducing and reintroducing malaria parasites into areas of anophelism, a challenge for malaria eradication.

The impact of different digital interaction configurations on pathologists' performance is not well understood.
