ASSOCIATION BETWEEN VISUAL PROBLEMS, INSUFFICIENT EMOTIONAL SUPPORT AND URINARY INCONTINENCE WITH DISABILITY IN ELDERLY PEOPLE LIVING IN A POOR DISTRICT IN RIO DE JANEIRO, BRAZIL: A SIX-YEAR FOLLOW-UP STUDY.

IntroductionDisability follows the rapid rate of population ageing, imposing a huge burden on society.Functional assessment in older people can identify predictors of disability.ObjectiveAnalyze the incidence and the risk VCR Accessories factors for disability in activities of daily living (ADL) and instrumental activities of daily living (IADL) in

The effects of surface texture on the lubrication performance of a compression ring-cylinder liner system are studied in this paper.By considering the surface roughness of the compression ring and cylinder liner, a mixed lubrication model is presented to investigate the tribological behaviors of a barrel-shaped compression ring-cylinder liner syste

In this study, a novel symbolic regression-based empirical equation has been developed to compute the joint roughness coefficient (JRC) value based on the statistical parameters of rock joints.The symbolic regression was adopted to map the nonlinear function, which represents the relation between the JRC and statistical parameters of the rock joint
