RESUMO
RESUMEN Objetivo: Analizar desde una perspectiva etnográfica los procesos étnicos-identitarios y la organización etnopolítica de la población indígena en la localidad de Carhué, provincia de Buenos Aires (Argentina). Para ello fueron atendidas diversas cuestiones, como las estrategias, los reclamos y las formas de resistencia llevadas a cabo por las familias que la componen. En este análisis resulta central atender a la emergencia étnica de la década de 1990 en espacios urbanos y las legislaciones que tienen como principales destinatarios a los pueblos originarios del país. Materiales y métodos: El trabajo con las familias mapuches de Carhué comenzó en 2018 a partir de una demanda específica para colaborar en la tramitación de su personería jurídica y las pautas de trabajo fueron definidas en conjunto. De esta manera, la metodología parte y se sustenta en el trabajo colaborativo. La perspectiva etnográfica se nutrió de entrevistas formales y dirigidas, charlas informales y observación participante, lo cual se trianguló con la búsqueda de fuentes en diversos archivos y la lectura bibliográfica de antecedentes teóricos en el tema. Resultados: En este trabajo hemos mostrado la necesaria movilización y elaboración de estrategias de las comunidades indígenas para hacer cumplir sus derechos como pueblos preexistentes ante la ausencia de respuestas de los diversos niveles del Estado y la falta de implementación de las leyes y normativas concernientes a los pueblos indígenas. Conclusiones: Pudimos observar que, a pesar de la falta de respuesta en relación con los reclamos indígenas, la organización etnopolítica de la comunidad de Carhué sigue creciendo en pos de visibilizar su presencia en el ámbito local, reclamar por el cumplimiento de derechos y por el acceso a la tierra para disponer de espacios propios para su reproducción y fortalecimiento.
ABSTRACT Objective: This paper seeks to contribute, from the perspective of Social Anthropology, to the analysis of the ethnopolitical organization and identity revaluation of indigenous communities in Argentina. For this purpose, we will focus on the organization process of the families of the Mapuche Kalfulafken community in the urban region of Carhué, province of Buenos Aires (Argentina), which has gained momentum in the last decades. In short, the aim is to analyze how indigenous claims in Carhué are constituted around territory, ethnic identity and living conditions by considering resistance strategies and access to resources over time and in relation to the different levels of the State -municipality, province and nation-. Central to this analysis is the indigenous emergence of recent times, which began in the 1990s and is characterized by a growing ethnic awareness and emergence. Additionally, reanalyzing the legislations that principally address the original pueblos of the country and the legal and regulatory advances that, in many cases, are due to the continued mobilization and organization of indigenous groups have been very important in the processes of identity reconstruction. Materials and methods: The approach from which we start this research corresponds to the perspective of Social Anthropology. The fieldwork with the Mapuche families of Carhué began in 2018 from a specific demand to the research/outreach group to collaborate in their request for recognition before the provincial State (through the processing of their legal status). The steps to be followed in the research and the work guidelines were defined together with the community, so that the methodology is based on collaborative work. A bibliographic survey of theoretical antecedents was carried out. The research question focused on the forms of organization of the Mapuche families and their relationship with the processes of ethnic-identity reconfiguration in Carhué, framed in the context of the indigenous emergence and resurgence of ethnic and territorial demands in the area. Returning to the field on several occasions, deepening the topics and reworking the methodological strategies allowed us to construct the objectives and better orient the research. The methodology was ethnographic and a diverse group of actors were interviewed: the members of the indigenous organization, inhabitants of Carhué, governmental and non-governmental officials, and others. Open and in-depth interviews, semi-structured interviews, individual, and group interviews were carried out. The aim was to reconstruct life histories and trajectories in order to try to understand social phenomena from the perspective of the actors. Thus, participant observation was an importantpart of the fieldwork. The perspective was nurtured and triangulated with the search for primary and secondary sources and complementary cases through the work in the local archive at the request of Kalfulafken, given the importance of making an approach with some historical depth to reconstruct the facts of persecution and violence against indigenous peoples in Argentina. Results: The work is framed within the resurgence of the demands and processes of identity reconstruction that have been gaining strength in the country since the 1990s. The large presence of the indigenous population in urban spaces is highlighted in the face of the historically constructed ideas of denial, discrimination and exclusion that have their roots in the colonial period and continued with the formation of the National State. We focus on the history of ethnopolitical organization and the forms of resistance ofthefamilies of Carhué, which has gained momentum in the last decades and seeks to assert their presence in the urban environment. From which, the members appeal to distance themselvesfrom and question the discourses promoted by state institutions that sought to dominate and make the indigenous population in the region invisible. In this way, we address the strategies and activities implemented by the Kalfulafken community that seek to question the 'official history' and demonstrate the subjugation, discrimination and invisibilization suffered and to reaffirm their current presence in Carhué. Such processes have led, on the one hand, to new links with other ethnopolitical groups, universities, national and local institutions, and on the other hand, to the generation of new spaces for participation and networks in the area in order to have greater visibility and strengthen their claims. In addition, we highlight the community's search for support and recognitionfrom local authorities in order to make their claims viable. Conclusions: From the analysis on the organizational processes of a Mapuche community in the province of Buenos Aires we can make several conclusions. On the one hand, in the absence of responses from the various levels of the State and the lack of implementation of laws and regulations concerning indigenous peoples, it is the communities that must mobilize and develop strategies to enforce their rights as pre-existing peoples. Despite the lack of response to the indigenous claims, the ethnopolitical organization of the community of Carhué continues to grow in order to make its presence visible at the local level and to claim the fulfillment of their rights and the recovery of their territories in order to have their own spaces and cultural autonomy for their reproduction. Another issue that was highlighted was the need forgreater access to funds and social projects that would allow these objectives to be carried out and that wouldprovide scholarships for the younger generations to study. That is to say that these requests that have arisen in the organization are linked, since in order to have autonomy they must have territories and funds to sustain it. In summary, the above allows us to account for the local ethnopolitical work and the impact of the productions and materials produced within the framework of university extension to accompany such processes. Likewise, the presence of indigenous movements makes it clear that the state projects of a homogeneous Argentina have not been achieved. In the case of Kalfulafken we have been able to see that in addition to the processing of their legal status, the community seeks to generate new spaces for intervention and networks in the region to achieve greater visibility and strengthen their claims.
RESUMO
Zinc oxide nanowires (ZnO NWs) possess a unique one-dimensional (1D) morphology that offers a direct pathway for charge transport. In this article, we present the first application of the real-time time-dependent density functional tight-binding (real-time TD-DFTB) method for a model hybrid system consisting of a catechol molecule adsorbed on a ZnO nanowire. The rationalization of the photoinduced electron injection to the 1D nanostructure is attained through quantum dynamics simulations, stressing the role of charge transfer in the new optical transitions upon dye adsorption. We provide a momentum-resolved picture of the photoexcitation dynamics, highlighting the charge accumulation in certain k-points, which could improve our understanding of these ultrafast processes. Finally, in the context of dye-sensitized solar cells (DSSCs) based on ZnO NW arrays, we provide a method to calculate the photoresponse obtaining similar results to experiments. This work paves the way towards the fast and accurate theoretical design of 1D optoelectronic nanodevices.
RESUMO
The momentum space of topological insulators and topological superconductors is equipped with a quantum metric defined from the overlap of neighboring valence band states or quasihole states. We investigate the quantum geometrical properties of these materials within the framework of Dirac models and differential geometry. Their momentum space is found to be always a maximally symmetric space with a constant Ricci scalar, and the vacuum Einstein equation is satisfied in 3D with a finite cosmological constant. For linear Dirac models, several geometrical properties are found to be independent of the band gap, including a peculiar straight line geodesic, constant volume of the curved momentum space, and the exponential decay form of the nonlocal topological marker, indicating the peculiar yet universal quantum geometrical properties of these models.
RESUMO
In this work, we present a theoretical study of elastic electron scattering by the CH2Br2 and CCl2Br2 molecules using the Schwinger multichannel method. Through the scattering amplitudes computed at the static-exchange and static-exchange plus polarization levels of approximation, we have obtained integral, momentum transfer, and differential cross sections for energies ranging from 0 to 20 eV. For both systems, the resonance spectrum was identified in the cross sections and characterized with basis on the analysis of the eigenvalues and eigenvectors obtained by diagonalization of the scattering Hamiltonian. Despite some discrepancies, our cross sections and resonance assignments are in overall good agreement with the experimental and theoretical data available in the literature. Present results also indicate that the effect of chlorination (i.e., the substitution of the hydrogen atoms by chlorine atoms in going from CH2Br2 to CCl2Br2) on the scattering process causes the following outcomes: the change in the position of the resonances in the low-energy regime and the increase in the magnitude of the cross sections for higher energies.
RESUMO
The heat and momentum transfer of tomato puree through a concentric-tube heat exchanger over a range of generalized Reynolds number (0.05 < Re < 66.5) was experimentally and numerically analyzed. Thermophysical and rheological properties of tomato puree (12°Brix) were measured from 20 to 60°C. The velocity, pressure, and temperature were calculated using the computational fluid dynamics (CFD) software FLUENTTM with temperature-dependent transport properties. The thermal operation of the concentric-tube exchanger was satisfactorily predicted using CFD, indicating accurate measurement of tomato puree properties with temperature variations. A concordance was found between the calculated Fanning friction factor and generalized Reynolds with the experimental correlation. A modified Sieder-Tate correlation was established, which allows properly expressing the Nusselt number as a function of the Peclet number. Simple correlations for the mechanical work and the heat transfer rate as a function of the volumetric flow rate were derived. The thermal efficiency was high at low puree flow rates but decreased with higher rates. However, at high flow rates, ceased its decline, instead showing a slight improvement. The analysis confirmed higher heat transfer rates in the concentric-tube heat exchanger compared to a plain tube at low puree flow rates. The results offer valuable insights for assessing diverse operational conditions in dairy, beverage, sauce, and concentrated food industries. Additionally, they also enhance the analysis and design of concentric-tube heat exchangers. PRACTICAL APPLICATION: The knowledge of the rheological and hydrodynamical behavior of fluids in concentric-tube heat exchangers allows to explore a set of different operating conditions to improve the yield and effectiveness on the system heating/cooling design.
RESUMO
Here we present measurements of dissociative and non-dissociative cross-sections for the electron impact of the CF4 molecule. The present experiments are based on a Recoil Ion Momentum Spectrometer (RIMS), a standard gas mixing setup for CF4, and a reference gas. The measurements were carried out at several electron energies up to 1 keV, covering the energy range of previous experiments. We apply the relative flow technique (RFT) to convert the relative cross-sections measured by the RIMS into absolute values. Using the combination of RIMS and RFT, ion collection and calibration errors were minimized. The results were compared with theoretical and experimental studies available in the literature. Previous electron impact experiments present relative cross-sections or use correction terms for the absolute cross-sections due to losses of energetic ions. We elucidate the differences between the new measurement method and the existing ones in the literature and explain why the present method can be considered reliable. Furthermore, we show how reducing correction terms affects the results.
RESUMO
The COVID-19 pandemic emerged in the context of a parallel epidemic of information, namely an infodemic. With the development of vaccines occurring in record time, a disinformation campaign ensued rendering the infodemic ever more troubling. As COVID-19 had to be curbed with vaccines opinion pools and surveys indicated that a minority, but relevant, part of the general public had weakened trust in public health policies and also on governmental responses to the pandemic in general. This dissent in public opinion on pandemic response is interpreted in this chapter as a controversy related to the efficacy and risks associated to vaccines. Such controversy gained momentum partly because traditional scientific communication has been largely unidirectional rather than bi-directional. We propose to apply a novel biosocial technical perspective to examine the COVID-19 pandemic controversy and communication, articulating social, biological and technical issues. The interaction between COVID-19 and vaccines, i.e. artefact-biological interactions, resulted in vaccine development in record time. However, the interaction between social systems and vaccine as artefacts was plagued by partial public reluctance in their acceptance. This rendered communication efforts ever more relevant, bringing lessons related to the importance of a more fluid bi-directional communication in future disease epidemics.

We study a model of Ising spins in which direct exchange interactions compete with the Ruderman-Kittel-Kasuya-Yosida (RKKY) coupling, which may arise effectively from itinerant electrons. We consider the model in the two-dimensional square lattice and focus on values of the RKKY coupling constant (JRKKY) and the Fermi momentum (kF) that induce strong frustration. We study the low-temperature magnetic field phase diagram using Monte Carlo simulations, considering several nearest neighbors in the RKKY interaction. Magnetic frustration yields a rich phase diagram with a variety of exotic phases. We compute the structure factors and define appropriate order parameters to describe the transitions. We also discuss the validity of the approximation made for long-range couplings and analytically demonstrate the change in the coexistence lines in the phase diagram by including up to the tenth nearest neighbors.
RESUMO
This study aimed to determine, through the use of a highly sensitive statistical tool, whether real changes in performance were present; and compare the rates of meaningful variations in strength, speed, and power parameters at different time-points during the competitive season in national team rugby players. Thirty-two players were assessed 5 times across the season using the following tests: squat jump and countermovement jump tests; 30-m sprint velocity; and one-repetition maximum (1RM) in the half-squat and bench-press exercises. A repeated-measures analysis of variance was conducted to test for differences between successive time-points. Individual coefficients of variation values were used to set target scores for post-measurements and examine whether changes in performance parameters were greater than the natural test variance, thus providing an indication of whether "true changes" occurred. No significant changes were detected in the vertical jump height, 1RM measures, and sprint velocity and momentum throughout the 11-month period (P > 0.05). True changes occurred much more frequently for strength-power measures than for sprint velocity and momentum. Elite rugby union players did not exhibit significant variations in neuromuscular performance across the competitive period, when a group-based analysis was conducted. However, at the individual level, "true changes" in strength-power-(but not in speed-) related qualities were consistently observed over the competitive season.
RESUMO
Recent progress in out-of-equilibrium closed quantum systems has significantly advanced the understanding of mechanisms behind their evolution toward thermalization. Notably, the concept of nonthermal fixed points (NTFPs)-responsible for the emergence of spatiotemporal universal scaling in far-from-equilibrium systems-has played a crucial role in both theoretical and experimental investigations. In this work, we introduce a differential equation that has the universal scaling associated with NTFPs as a solution. The advantage of working with a differential equation, rather than only with its solution, is that we can extract several insightful properties not necessarily present in the solution alone. How the differential equation is derived allows physical interpretation of the universal exponents in terms of the time dependence of the amplitude of the distributions and their momentum scaling. Employing two limiting cases of the equation, we determined the universal exponents related to the scaling using the distributions near just two momentum values. We established a solid agreement with previous investigations by validating this approach with three distinct physical systems. This consistency highlights the universal nature of scaling due to NTFPs and emphasizes the predictive capabilities of the proposed differential equation. Moreover, under specific conditions, the equation predicts a power-law related to the ratio of the two universal exponents, leading to implications concerning particle and energy transport. This suggests that the observed power-laws in far-from-equilibrium turbulent fluids could be related to the universal scaling due to NTFPs, potentially offering insights into the study of turbulence.
RESUMO
In this study, we investigate the spin-momentum locking phenomenon on Rashba states of antimony (Sb) films. Utilizing spin pumping in conjunction with an external charge current, we uncover the topological properties of Sb surface states. Our key finding is the precise manipulation of the direction and magnitude of the charge current generated by the inverse Rashba-Edelstein effect. This control is achieved through the dynamic interaction between out-of-equilibrium pumped spins and spin-momentum-locked flowing spins, which are perpendicular to the charge current. Our results highlight Sb as a promising material for both fundamental and applied spintronics research. The studied Sb nanostructures demonstrate potential for the development of low-power logic gates operating with currents in the microampere range, paving the way for advanced spintronic applications.
RESUMO
In this case study, we propose a network analysis approach to map social movements through an intersectional feminist lens. We aim to gain a more in-depth understanding of movements' network structures to examine the roles and relationships of movement actors, the flow of resources between them, and potential areas of collaboration and conflict. By incorporating Social Network Analysis (SNA) techniques and visually mapping dynamics within social movements, this approach can assess the significance of small actors in creating change and stresses the need for their perspectives to be heard. Furthermore, our methodology adopts a feminist intersectional framework that recognizes the role of different identities in shaping the movement and its actors. To demonstrate the practical application of this approach, we examined the movement for the right to abortion in Mexico between September and December 2021. Our multi-step process included (1) designing a survey tool adapted to the context of the movement, (2) collecting and analyzing survey responses on movement actors' relationships and interactions, including their priorities, activities, needs, risks, and challenges, (3) visualizing the network using SNA techniques that account for the complexity and diversity of the movement, (4) interpreting the findings through insights collected in semi-structured interviews and validation meetings with key movement actors, and (5) implementing safety and security guidelines to safeguard the identity of individuals whose activities could put them at risk of suffering institutional, emotional, and physical violence. Our case study offers valuable insights that not only encourage the integration of feminist and intersectional perspectives into data collection processes but also provide a roadmap for accompanying social movements and supporting meaningful and contextually responsive activities.
RESUMO
A rotor design of a Ram Air Turbine (RAT) for a commercial aircraft was created taking three sections with different airfoils along the blade; those sections were assessed to evaluate their performance at different critical velocities (41, 81 and 251 m/s) and choose the best profile configuration generating a new proposal to increase the glide ratio by reducing the drag, which is helpful in emergency cases. The Blade Element Momentum (BEM) theory and Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD) were used to analyze an initial design, then validating these results with the open software QBlade. For the BEM theory a program was created for the design and performance of the RAT adding the Viterna methodology for airfoil analysis. 16 designs were proposed by strategically interchanging wing profiles in different blade sections. These designs were analyzed by CFD, using the complete rotor and the S S T k - ω turbulence model. An optimal geometry was found, presenting a significant drag reduction of 25% generating an increase in the glide ratio and improving aircraft control in addition to maintaining the power generation above the desired values; therefore, it recommends using different airfoils for each section of a RAT's rotor blade.
RESUMO
This article addresses the semantic segmentation of laparoscopic surgery images, placing special emphasis on the segmentation of structures with a smaller number of observations. As a result of this study, adjustment parameters are proposed for deep neural network architectures, enabling a robust segmentation of all structures in the surgical scene. The U-Net architecture with five encoder-decoders (U-Net5ed), SegNet-VGG19, and DeepLabv3+ employing different backbones are implemented. Three main experiments are conducted, working with Rectified Linear Unit (ReLU), Gaussian Error Linear Unit (GELU), and Swish activation functions. The applied loss functions include Cross Entropy (CE), Focal Loss (FL), Tversky Loss (TL), Dice Loss (DiL), Cross Entropy Dice Loss (CEDL), and Cross Entropy Tversky Loss (CETL). The performance of Stochastic Gradient Descent with momentum (SGDM) and Adaptive Moment Estimation (Adam) optimizers is compared. It is qualitatively and quantitatively confirmed that DeepLabv3+ and U-Net5ed architectures yield the best results. The DeepLabv3+ architecture with the ResNet-50 backbone, Swish activation function, and CETL loss function reports a Mean Accuracy (MAcc) of 0.976 and Mean Intersection over Union (MIoU) of 0.977. The semantic segmentation of structures with a smaller number of observations, such as the hepatic vein, cystic duct, Liver Ligament, and blood, verifies that the obtained results are very competitive and promising compared to the consulted literature. The proposed selected parameters were validated in the YOLOv9 architecture, which showed an improvement in semantic segmentation compared to the results obtained with the original architecture.
RESUMO
Superatomic clusters are relevant species to further understanding of bonding and structural properties of atomically precise molecular nanoparticles. Here, we explore the characteristics of ligand-free [Ba4@Sn56]36- Zintl-ion, as a three-dimensional aggregate of clusters featuring four fused Ba@Sn19 building units as an extension of the understanding in linear and cyclic superatomic cluster arrays. We provide a rational picture of the electronic shell in [Ba4@Sn56]36- as a cluster-of-clusters motif through the recently introduced second-order superatom approach, as a three-dimensional aggregation of superatomic clusters where their shells are able to interact. The electronic structure features both tangential and radial shells from the four building Ba@Sn19 units, leading to a set of 1S'21P'61D'101F'14 and higher angular momentum shells and a second set of 2S'22P'62D'102F'142G'8 second-order shells. Thus, the current approach serves to encourage the rationalization of molecular materials conceived from cluster building blocks toward a rational guide for synthetic efforts.
RESUMO
Fungal pellets are hierarchical systems that can be found in an ample variety of applications. Modeling transport phenomena in this type of systems is a challenging but necessary task to provide knowledge-based processes that improve the outcome of their biotechnological applications. In this work, an upscaled model for total mass and momentum transport in fungal pellets is implemented and analyzed, using elements of the volume averaging and adjoint homogenization methods departing from the governing equations at the microscale in the intracellular and extracellular phases. The biomass is assumed to be composed of a non-Newtonian fluid and the organelles impervious to momentum transport are modeled as a rigid solid phase. The upscaled equations contain effective-medium coefficients, which are predicted from the solution of adjoint closure problems in a three-dimensional periodic domains representative of the microstructure. The construction of these domains was performed for Laccaria trichodermophora based on observations of actual biological structures. The upscaled model was validated with direct numerical simulations in homogeneous portions of the pellets core. It is shown that no significant differences are observed when the dolipores are open or closed to fluid flow. By comparing the predictions of the average velocity in the extracellular phase resulting from the upscaled model with those from the classical Darcy equation (i.e., assuming that the biomass is a solid phase) the contribution of the intracellular fluid phase was evidenced. This work sets the foundations for further studies dedicated to transport phenomena in this type of systems.

The high rates of depression, burnout, and increased risk of suicide among medical students, residents, and physicians in comparison with other careers signal a mental health crisis within our profession. We contend that this crisis coupled with the inadequate acquisition of interpersonal skills during medical education results from the interaction between a challenging environment and the mental capital of individuals. Additionally, we posit that mindfulness-based practices are instrumental for the development of major components of mental capital, such as resilience, flexibility of mind, and learning skills, while also serving as a pathway to enhance empathy, compassion, self-awareness, conflict resolution, and relational abilities. Importantly, the evidence base supporting the effectiveness of mindfulness-based interventions has been increasing over the years, and a growing number of medical schools have already integrated mindfulness into their curricula. While we acknowledge that mindfulness is not a panacea for all educational and mental health problems in this field, we argue that there is currently an unprecedented opportunity to gather momentum, spread and study mindfulness-based programs in medical schools around the world as a way to address some longstanding shortcomings of the medical profession and the health and educational systems upon which it is rooted.
RESUMO
We report on an all-fiber setup capable of generating complex intensity patterns using interference of few guided modes. Comprised by a few-mode fiber (FMF) spliced to a multimodal interference (MMI) fiber device, the setup allows for obtaining different output patterns upon adjusting the phases and intensities of the modes propagating in the FMF. We analyze the output patterns obtained when exciting two family modes in the MMI device using different phase and intensity conditions for the FMF modal base. Using this simple experimental arrangement we are able to produce complex intensity patterns with radial and azimuthal symmetry. Moreover, our results suggest that this approach provides a means to generate beams with orbital angular momentum (OAM).
RESUMO
Self-gravitating fluid instabilities are analysed within the framework of a post-Newtonian Boltzmann equation coupled with the Poisson equations for the gravitational potentials of the post-Newtonian theory. The Poisson equations are determined from the knowledge of the energy-momentum tensor calculated from a post-Newtonian Maxwell-Jüttner distribution function. The one-particle distribution function and the gravitational potentials are perturbed from their background states, and the perturbations are represented by plane waves characterised by a wave number vector and time-dependent small amplitudes. The time-dependent amplitude of the one-particle distribution function is supposed to be a linear combination of the summational invariants of the post-Newtonian kinetic theory. From the coupled system of differential equations for the time-dependent amplitudes of the one-particle distribution function and gravitational potentials, an evolution equation for the mass density contrast is obtained. It is shown that for perturbation wavelengths smaller than the Jeans wavelength, the mass density contrast propagates as harmonic waves in time. For perturbation wavelengths greater than the Jeans wavelength, the mass density contrast grows in time, and the instability growth in the post-Newtonian theory is more accentuated than the one of the Newtonian theory.
RESUMO
BACKGROUND: Intrinsic capacity (IC) is defined as "all the physical and mental attributes possessed by the older person." This concept has gained momentum in recent years because it provides insights into the changes in the functional capacity of individuals during their life. This study examined common factors associated with IC decline among older adults in Mexico and Colombia. METHODS: This cross-sectional, correlational study included 348 community-dwelling older adults. Sociodemographic, clinical, and family conditions were assessed as possible associated factors, and IC was analyzed across five domains: cognitive, locomotor, psychological, vitality (malnutrition through deficiency and excess), and sensory (visual and auditory). Parametric and non-parametric statistical analyses were performed. RESULTS: The common factors associated with impairment according to domain were family dysfunctionality (cognitive domain); myocardial infarction, family dysfunctionality, age >80 years, home occupation, and not having a partner (locomotor domain); dysfunctional family and risk of falls (psychological domain); age >80 years and not having a partner (malnutrition by deficiency domain); age 60-79 years, walking <7,500 steps/day, and peripheral vascular disease (malnutrition by excess domain); risk of falling and being female (visual sensory domain); risk of falling (auditory sensory domain); and dysfunctional family and risk of falling (total intrinsic capacity). CONCLUSION: Both populations had common sociodemographic, clinical, and familial factors that directly affected total IC stocks and their domains.
