OBJECTIVE - A population-based prospective study was analysed to: a) determine the prevalence of hypertension; b) investigate the clustering of other cardiovascular risk factors and c) verify whether older differed from younger adults in the pattern of clustering. METHODS - The data comprised a representative sample of the population of Bambuí, Brazil. Multiple logistic regression was used to investigate the independent association between hypertension and selected factors. RESULTS - A total of 820 younger adults (82.5%) and 1494 older adults (85.9%) participated in this study. The overall prevalence of hypertension was 24.8% (SE=1.4 %), being higher in women (26.9±1.5%) than in men (22.0± 1.7%) (p=0.033). Hypertension was positively and significantly associated with physical inactivity, overweight, hypercholesterolemia hyperglycemia and hypertriglyceridemia. The coexistence of hypertension with 4 or more of these risk factors occurred 6 times more than expected by chance, after adjusting for age and sex (OR=6.3; 95%CI: 3.4-11.9). The pattern of risk factor clustering in hypertensive individuals differed with age. CONCLUSION - Our results reinforce the need to increase detection and treatment of hypertension and to approach patients' global risk profiles.

The following article describes an approach covering the variety of opinions and uncertainties of estimates within the chosen technique of decision support. Mathematical operations used for assessment of options are traced to operations of working with functions that are used for assessment of possible options of decision-making. Approach proposed could be used within any technique of decision support based on elementary mathematical operations. In this article the above-mentioned approach is described under analytical hierarchy process.

...In dieser Arbeit untersuche ich den ”Fluch der Dimensionen” mittels dem Begriff der Distanzkonzentration. Ich zeige, dass dieser Effekt im Datenmodell mittels der paarweisen Kovarianzkoeffizienten der Randverteilungen beschrieben werden kann. Zusätzlich vergleiche ich 10 prototypbasierte Clusteralgorithmen mittels 800.000 Clusterergebnissen von künstlich erzeugten Datensätzen. Ich erforsche, wie und warum Clusteralgorithmen von der Anzahl der Merkmale beeinflusst werden. Mit den Clusterergebnissen untersuche ich außerdem, wie gut 5 der populärsten Clusterqualitätsmaße die tatsächliche Clusterqualität schätzen.

El presente proyecto tenía como objetivo final el desarrollo de un sistema de control basado en Lógica Fuzzy que permita que el proceso de secado tenga una regulación continua y con una menor dependencia de la experiencia del personal experto, evitando además la formación de encostrado. Asimismo, se plantearon una serie de objetivos parciales, cuya consecución permitiría, además de alcanzar el objetivo final descrito, obtener un conocimiento científico adicional. Por ello, a continuación se resumen los resultados en relación con los objetivos parciales propuestos. Como paso previo, antes de abordar los objetivos planteados se diseñó y construyó un equipo experimental de secado, donde se controló de forma precisa la temperatura, la humedad relativa y la velocidad del aire.

Memòria elaborada a partir d’una estada al projecte Proteus de la New York University entre abril i juny del 2007. Les tècniques de clustering poden ajudar a reduir la supervisió en processos d’obtenció de patrons per a Extracció d’Informació. Tanmateix, és necessari disposar d’algorismes adequats a documents, i aquests algorismes requereixen mesures adequades de similitud entre patrons. Els kernels poden oferir una solució a aquests problemes, però l’aprenentatge no supervisat requereix d’estrat`egies m´es astutes que l’aprenentatge supervisat per a incorporar major quantitat d’informació. En aquesta memòria, fruit de la meva estada de mes d’Abril al de Juny de 2007 al projecte. Proteus de la New York University, es proposen i avaluen diversos kernels sobre patrons. Ini- cialment s’estudien kernels amb una família de patrons restringits, i a continuació s’apliquen kernels ja usats en tasques supervisades d’Extracció d’Informació. Degut a la degradació del rendiment que experimenta el clustering a l’afegir informació irrellevant, els kernels se simpli- fiquen i es busquen estratègies per a incorporar-hi semàntica de forma selectiva. Finalment, s’estudia quin efecte té aplicar clustering sobre el coneixement semàntic com a pas previ al clustering de patrons. Les diverses estratègies s’avaluen en tasques de clustering de documents i patrons usant dades reals.

This paper considers a long-term relationship between two agents who both undertake a costly action or investment that together produces a joint benefit. Agents have an opportunity to expropriate some of the joint benefit for their own use. Two cases are considered: (i) where agents are risk neutral and are subject to limited liability constraints and (ii) where agents are risk averse, have quasi-linear preferences in consumption and actions but where limited liability constraints do not bind. The question asked is how to structure the investments and division of the surplus over time so as to avoid expropriation. In the risk-neutral case, there may be an initial phase in which one agent overinvests and the other underinvests. However, both actions and surplus converge monotonically to a stationary state in which there is no overinvestment and surplus is at its maximum subject to the constraints. In the risk-averse case, there is no overinvestment. For this case, we establish that dynamics may or may not be monotonic depending on whether or not it is possible to sustain a first-best allocation. If the first-best allocation is not sustainable, then there is a trade-off between risk sharing and surplus maximization. In general, surplus will not be at its constrained maximum even in the long run.

Creative industries tend to concentrate mainly around large- and medium-sized cities, forming creative local production systems. The text analyses the forces behind clustering of creative industries to provide the first empirical explanation of the determinants of creative employment clustering following a multidisciplinary approach based on cultural and creative economics, evolutionary geography and urban economics. A comparative analysis has been performed for Italy and Spain. The results show different patterns of creative employment clustering in both countries. The small role of historical and cultural endowments, the size of the place, the average size of creative industries, the productive diversity and the concentration of human capital and creative class have been found as common factors of clustering in both countries.

Concerns on the clustering of retail industries and professional services in main streets had traditionally been the public interest rationale for supporting distance regulations. Although many geographic restrictions have been suppressed, deregulation has hinged mostly upon the theory results on the natural tendency of outlets to differentiate spatially. Empirical evidence has so far offered mixed results. Using the case of deregulation of pharmacy establishment in a region of Spain, we empirically show how pharmacy locations scatter, and that there is not rationale for distance regulation apart from the underlying private interest of very few incumbents.
