The survival of primates in forest fragments largely depends on their behavioral and dietary flexibility, as well as their ability to use a modified matrix in anthropogenic landscapes, hence the importance of determining these ecological parameters in habitats…[Read more]

Abnormal FHR patterns (late deceleration or decreased baseline variability) were significantly associated with poor perinatal outcome. Combined late deceleration and decreased variability showed low positive predictive value (12.8%) and high negative predictive value (99.5%), and was significantly associated with long-term poor outcome in clinical…[Read more]
