“…The observed heterogeneity may be correlated with different subtypes of acute coronary syndrome types of abnormal ABI, ethnic, or other demographic characteristics or follow-up duration. Fifth, several important variables such as chronic kidney disease, 31 arrhythmia, and aortic valve disease 32 were not included in the statistical analysis; these confounding factors may explain the prognostic role. Finally, the most common ABI threshold for normality is 0.90 to 1.4.…”

“…Las investigaciones más recientes proponen una solución a este problema basada en la biodegradación, utilizando para ello cepas microbianas seleccionadas (Paço et al 2017); en la degradación biológica o biodegradación intervienen diferentes microorganismos, entre los que existe una gran diversidad catabólica, que son capaces de degradar, transformar o acumular, de forma natural, un amplio rango de compuestos: desde ligninas, almidón, celulosa y hemicelulosa (Shalini et al 2015), hasta hidrocarburos, fármacos y metales (Kannahi & Sudha 2013); estos microorganismos, además, pueden asociarse para formar consorcios que degradan los compuestos poliméricos por cometabolismo (Skariyachan et al 2015); dependiendo del tipo de proceso se generan diferentes productos finales, así, en el caso de un ambiente aeróbico, sólo se registran como productos finales la formación de agua, CO2 y masa microbiana, mientras que en condiciones anaeróbicas se registran, además de los productos señalados, otros como metano y ácido sulfhídrico, como resultado de metabolismos metanogénicos y sulfidogénicos (Shah et al 2019).…”
