BidCorpus: A multifaceted learning dataset for public procurement.

Digital transformation has significantly impacted public procurement, improving operational efficiency, transparency, and competition. This transformation has allowed the automation of data analysis and oversight in public administration. Public procurement involves various stages and generates a multitude of documents.

Electronic band evolution between Lieb and kagome nanoribbons.

We investigate the electronic properties of nanoribbons made out of monolayer Lieb, transition, and kagome lattices using the tight-binding model with a generic Hamiltonian. It allows us to map the evolutionary stages of the interconvertibility process between Lieb and kagome nanoribbons by means of only one control parameter. Results for the energy spectra, the density of states, and spatial probability density distributions are discussed for nanoribbons with three types of edges: straight, bearded, and asymmetric.

Diversity of Species Causing Anthracnose in Chayote in Brazil, with a Description of Two New Species in the Complex.

Anthracnose caused by species is the most important disease of chayote () in Brazil. The etiology of chayote anthracnose has been assigned to the species , an important plant pathogenic fungus also reported as the causal agent of anthracnose in other cucurbits worldwide. However, there is no recent survey of the species causing anthracnose in chayote in Brazil.

Piperine as an Herbal Alternative for the Prevention of Drug-Induced Liver Damage Caused by Paracetamol.

Hepatic drug intoxication is becoming increasingly common with the increasing use of chronic medications. Piperine has emerged as a promising alternative for protecting the liver against drug-induced injury. We evaluated the prophylactic effects of piperine in C57BL/6 mice with an acute liver injury induced by a paracetamol (APAP) overdose.

Prognostic Scores for Acute Kidney Injury in Critically Ill Patients.

Background: Numerous prognostic scores have been developed and used in intensive care; however, the applicability and effectiveness of these scores in critically ill patients with acute kidney injury may vary due to the characteristics of this population.

Objective: To assess the predictive capacity of the Simplified Acute Physiology Score III (SAPS III), Sequential Sepsis-related Organ Failure Assessment (SOFA) and Nursing Activities Score (NAS) prognostic scoring systems for acute kidney injury in critically ill patients.

Methods: Cohort, prospective and quantitative study with follow-up of 141 critical patients in intensive care.
